Chapter 8: Can’t I make you angry even though I can’t beat you?
"What a bullshit escort plan! Since we're all going to die anyway, why does it matter whether we're escorted or not?"
Gojo Satoru loudly complained about the task assigned by his superiors to "escort the astral plasma to complete the fusion."
"If you have to sacrifice the lives of others to survive, you might as well not live!"
"You can't say that outside, Gojo. After all, you are born to protect the Astral Body and complete the ritual of the Six Eyes."
Ye Mo Zheng Dao rarely had the attitude problem of scolding the students this time. After all, as a man with conscience, he was also very disgusted with this kind of cruel and barbaric ritual, but he had no way to stop it.
Not to mention that this will make enemies with all the Japanese sorcerers and curse masters who are eyeing the bounty. The girl named Tenriko has been trained as a "star plasma body" by the high-level curse masters since she was a child. She has been successfully brainwashed and firmly believes that dedicating herself to Tianyuan is her great mission. It is hard to say whether she has any sense of survival.
The adult world is full of cruel reality and calculations. Keeping oneself safe is the right approach. How many people would be willing to take risks for someone who is irrelevant and may not even ask for help?
You are not a young boy anymore, be realistic.
"That's why it's so annoying. Those old guys only know how to get others to listen to them by saying things like 'natural destiny'. But in reality, if you infringe on their ridiculous interests, they'll dare to expose you to the sky. These short-sighted people are really disgusting!"
Ye Mo Zheng Dao sighed inwardly, but he didn't interrupt Gojo Satoru's indignation. "Anyway, I've already issued the mission to you. There have been too many emergencies recently. To ensure the safety of the astral plasma and avoid any more trouble, you will take the astral plasma to Kyoto High School tomorrow, and then bring it to Tokyo High School on the day of assimilation in a few days!"
......
"I'm so annoyed. What the hell is fate? Why do people keep whining about this kind of nonsense? It's obvious that no matter how hard you struggle, you're going to die in the end, right?"
After leaving the classroom, Gojo Satoru leaned against the wall next to the automatic beverage vending machine and said to Geto Suguru who was buying a drink.
"Even though Mr. Yega himself is unhappy with this kind of thing, he still wants to assign us tasks..."
"Mr. Ye Moth is also under a lot of pressure, and he has no other options."
Geto Summer Oil sat down next to Gojo Satoru and handed him a can of iced soda.
"There are many things in this society that we are unwilling to change but cannot change."
"What's the point of not being able to change it? I think it's just that those guys don't have the courage to try. Jay, you're not such a coward, are you?"
"I'll return this sentence to you intact, Satoru."
The two looked at each other and saw the same sharpness in each other's eyes, until the other party understood and agreed with their bold idea.
"I don't know if you two are cowards, but I do know that if you two don't buy anything and still stand here blocking the road, I will return you both to Mother Earth through the window intact."
Just as the two were about to discuss what to do next, a female voice came from behind them.
Gojo Satoru almost spilled his drink: "When did you get here?"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "I've been waiting in line since you guys bought your drinks."
I just cast an invisibility spell and amused a kid at the same time.
Gojo Satoru slapped his chest exaggeratedly: "Couldn't you make a sound while you were standing there? Your sudden noise would have scared me to death!"
Cheng Xiaoyu, who had specially stacked several layers of concealment magic to hide from the six eyes in order to amuse the children, said righteously: "You are talking, how can I interrupt?"
Gojo Satoru: "Then why are you lining up to become invisible?"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Because I am shy by nature."
It’s really fun to tease children. These two usually lawless little kids were like cats seeing cucumbers just now. I will tease them again next time.
Geto: "In that case, you heard everything we just said, didn't you?"
Cheng Xiaoyu slowly touched the change in her pocket and said, "I heard it."
Geto Suguru: "What do you think about this? After all, you said you've lived for many years. I'm a little curious about how you, as a being like you, view our thoughts?"
Cheng Xiaoyu answered the question as pertinently as possible: "Wanting to save one's own kind is as natural as wanting to protect oneself. It's both part of normal human behavior. I don't have any particular opinion on this."
"So, what are your thoughts on 'fate'?" Suguru Takeshi asked. "Do you also think that Tenriko should follow her 'fate' and sacrifice her life like Tengen-sama?"
The black-haired girl who squatted down to get the drink paused and finally turned her head to look at the boy.
You kid, are you setting a trap for me here?
"You have a huge misunderstanding of fate. At least in my understanding, 'fate' refers to a certain, clearly defined, unchangeable point in time, not the fart that some brain-dead idiots release with a single smack."
Geto Suguru: ...
Gojo Satoru:......
The scolding was really harsh, but it was done well!
"Also, the idea that 'astroplasm' must be assimilated is a hoax in itself."
The truth that the top leaders of the magic world had tried so hard to hide was revealed right in front of them.
Almost no one knows that Yuki Kujuku, one of the four—and probably still the only—special-grade sorcerers, is also a member of the "Astral Plasma Body".
Yes, there is more than one "Astral Plasma Body", and Tennuriko is just the most talented one among them.
After all, Tianyuan is essentially just a human sorcerer. Her "immortality technique" is essentially to find a suitable body to possess. It is not as magical and advanced as the top leaders of the sorcery world say. Even Tianyuan herself does not think it is great.
In fact, Tianyuan herself should not be so obsessed with assimilation now. The information collected from other worlds before showed that she refused to assimilate other "astrophysical bodies" after the failure of assimilation of Tianlizi. Basically, her mental state is "I'd rather live than die. I should have died a long time ago anyway."
It is not known whether Tianyuan in this world has the same idea, but considering that there is still a "high-dimensional creature" hiding somewhere in this world, no matter what she thinks, this assimilation will definitely fail.
So, allowing an intelligent creature to live far beyond the initial lifespan of its self-aware species, and then placing a lot of responsibilities on it to face the sudden infinite time alone, is not a good thing at all...
With a "swish" sound, Cheng Xiaoyu opened the pull ring of the soda, and the smell of green tea that hit her face made her frown.
Wow...what a wonderful taste. Is this the true strength of green tea flavored cola?
When I bought it, it was indeed for the novelty, but when it came to actually drinking it... Cheng Xiaoyu felt that she still needed to prepare herself mentally.
Cheng Xiaoyu and Green Tea Cola looked at each other "affectionately", and Gojo Satoru did not intend to miss the opportunity to ask further questions.
"Even I, the sole heir of the Gojo family, don't know this... Could it be that you also learned this from another parallel world?"
“It’s a control group reference plus social experience.”
Cheng Xiaoyu carefully observed the bubbling green liquid, wondering whether she should buy another bottle of drink to rinse her mouth.
This bubbling green liquid feels a bit like the water in the Lhasa Bathhouse that hasn't been changed for hundreds of years...
Stop! This association makes it even harder to swallow.
Gojo Satoru curled his lips and said, "What? I thought I'd get some interesting answers, but your answers are even more boring than those old guys."
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Because you guys are so prone to overthinking things. If I don't answer you carefully, who knows what ridiculous and bizarre logic you'll come up with and act on. And don't be so ungrateful. I just gave you some great intelligence for free."
Gojo Satoru: "Don't act like we're trying to trick you into giving us information, okay? We're not like those stinky old guys."
The intelligence transmitted above clearly mentioned that this sorcerer from another world hated being probed and probed. In order to avoid exacerbating the conflict - and more importantly, to prevent the other party from saying something that would threaten the rule of the top three families over the Japanese sorcery world, the top leaders ordered that Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, who were nine out of ten rebellious, were strictly prohibited from contacting the "sorcerer from another world" privately and trying to gather information from him.
Although Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru didn't care about the so-called "ban" issued by the top management, they really didn't intend to ask any questions this time.
They were just worried that Cheng Xiaoyu, who heard their conversation, would hinder them from releasing Nariko, so they asked those questions to test her attitude. However, they never expected that she would reveal a huge secret.
It is true that I did not take the initiative to obtain information, but there is nothing I can do about the other party taking the initiative to give information!
Cheng Xiaoyu finally prepared herself mentally and took a big gulp of green tea cola. The strange taste made her decide to buy a regular drink to rinse her mouth after finishing the bottle.
"Why are you all staring at me without saying anything? Are you mesmerized by my wisdom?"
Because you killed the topic!
"How could anyone chat like that?" Gojo Satoru said. "You don't think we're spies sent by higher-ups to extract information, do you? Don't worry, we've been given clear orders not to contact you. We're also strictly forbidden from trying to get information from you. We were just casually asking just now."
“…”
Something is wrong. Something is very wrong.
She was already acting so suspiciously, so logically the Jujutsu higher-ups should have been actively trying to get information about her. She and Gojo Satoru and Geto Gayu were the first to know each other, so they were the most suitable people to extract information from her. So why were those higher-ups blocking her path now?
Thinking about the fact that Noose has hands and eyes all over these high-level officials, and Noose is very likely to be entangled with that "high-dimensional creature", it is not difficult to imagine that this time the two of them are working together to try to prevent Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru from getting some information from her that will affect the subsequent development, so that the "drama" they planned cannot be performed.
This conclusion shocked Cheng Xiaoyu.
She knew that the other party, as a high-dimensional creature, would probably be arrogant, but she didn't expect him to be so arrogant and actually dance right on her face!
Cheng Xiaoyu can't read minds, although she can use the Qi magic spell to directly extract souls and analyze memories to obtain information. However, there are so many old men in the upper echelons of the magic world, as well as old men in reserve who will become old men in the future. Even if she squats by the bedsides of the people involved every night with a crystal ball... the speed at which she obtains information is still slower than the speed at which they enter the coffins.
At this moment, Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't follow this line to catch the two loaches that were protected by the high-dimensional distorted reality, just like people couldn't beat up the stupid Party A along the Internet cable. All he could do was sincerely wish the other party to explode soon...right?
"Those rotten oranges are just so petty. Excluding those who dissident are their most common tactic. But we don't care about that. They wouldn't dare to punish us anyway, let alone do anything to you."
Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru didn't know what was going on in Cheng Xiaoyu's mind. They just saw that this usually smiling man suddenly had a gloomy face. They didn't know what had happened. They could only guess that Cheng Xiaoyu was angry because of the deliberate exclusion and difficulties caused by the top leaders of the magic world.
"Geto Suguru."
Out of the blue, Cheng Xiaoyu suddenly looked up and shouted at him.
"Next year you will—"
"boom!"
The automatic beverage vending machine exploded when it was put into use. The imminent explosion made people's ears ring. Sparks and flying iron pieces engulfed the black-haired woman like waves.
"Ha ha."
The pungent black smoke soon dissipated, and the unharmed woman stood there, looking provocatively at the black smoke floating out of the window, with a sarcastic curve at the corner of her lips.
"You're anxious."
