New copy (two)
The teleportation array was located in a secret base in a city on the edge of the continent, and they used local transportation from the base to come to Nosta.
It was a thousand miles from the imperial city to the seaside town, but it only took three hours.
If it weren't for the need to bring Li Yuebai along, Ye Jian would have had other ways that would have been faster.
It has to be said that the other world still has its merits in terms of technology and transportation, but Li Yuebai still misses the original world occasionally.
The system has updated Nosta's entry.
[Nosta]: An ordinary seaside town with pleasant scenery, suitable for couples to vacation. It has a small population and its main industry is fishing.
The buildings in Nosta are quite distinctive. In order to be windproof and waterproof, they are all made of green rocks that Li Yuebai is not familiar with. They are not painted on the outside, but only decorated with painted fish bones and shells, which looks colorful.
Ye Jian did not take him to the military camp, but arranged for him to stay in a luxurious sea view hotel. The room was large and spacious, and Li Yuebai couldn't help rolling on the bed.
Although the cheap teacher did not postpone the task for him no matter how much he begged, the way he paid the money was really nice.
"If you want to leave, tell me."
"Don't worry, I promise, I will tell you." The young man blinked at him and smiled.
"I plan to prepare some things and leave tomorrow." Ye Jian said with a smile: "You can play here for two days. I will find someone to accompany you tomorrow. However, the security in this city is still quite good... Even if something happens, your own strength should be enough to deal with it. I'll go out first, okay?"
While he was out looking for the next guide, Li Yuebai called out the [Nameless Saint] and plotted loudly in the room.
"Hey, since you are in league with the system, that means there should be no problem doing the main quest, right?"
[The Nameless Saint] just smiled and said nothing.
Li Yuebai curled his lips and said, "I don't want to complete the task just as the mass extinction changes from ten years away to happening immediately."
Looking carefully at the characters' experiences, if the Sword Master had not fought in the so-called [Deep Sea Gate] for ten years, the world would have seemed doomed.
[Nameless Saint] sighed, "You asked for my opinion? My opinion is: It doesn't matter, you can do it if you want to. Although it may not be in line with the character setting, but whether I am extinct or not, or whether my body lives or dies, what does it have to do with you? Anyway, there are still ten years left, and there is still enough time for the game."
Wow, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, I didn’t expect he is the type who plays Zelda and doesn’t like saving princesses.
Li Yuebai: "Why are you so casual?" Isn't he a human hero? Is this the attitude of a human hero towards the world?
[The Nameless Saint] smiled and said, "Although I have a hard life, I am just a ghost now. Only you can touch me. I have already..."
I am not qualified and cannot complete the mission.
"Not only that, if you have enough energy, you can also touch your original body."
Li Yuebai recalled his gaming experience, checked the game mechanics, and confirmed this.
Not only is there a physical and emotional connection between the card and the main body, but it can also attack.
As early as the first time he encountered the Laughing Twins' true bodies, the Laughing Twins attacked their true bodies, allowing him to leave a mark on the twins' bodies and complete the initial ritual.
"I really don't have any strategy, and I can't think of any way to stop him from going to the mission site before tomorrow. I thought about it, since he is the strongest human being, then only if he can deal with himself can he succeed, right?"
"And I can also call for outside help." The angel was already waiting for him in the city.
The priest couldn't reach the seaside city quickly, so he gave him some precious props.
Other cards can provide him with energy to support the consumption of [Nameless Saint].
Li Yuebai considered the possibility of directly stabbing Ye Jian in the kidney and rendering him unable to move.
"Yes, the master is really perceptive." The ghost smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "It's not impossible, but based on my understanding of myself, after my injury heals, he will arrest the master even if he chases him to the ends of the earth, and then lock him up in a small dark room. He will take him with him at all times and interrogate him personally every day and night."
?
Li Yuebai: "...So you are this kind of person, speaking righteously on the surface, but actually completely evil?"
"The deep prison in the imperial city is very dangerous, so he can only 'protect' you well in his own private territory."
"Does that mean I will become a pendant that you carry with you?"
[Nameless Saint] blinked innocently: "It was him, not me. But if the master suddenly disappeared, based on my understanding of the original body, he would also put down his mission and go look for you first."
The ghost smiled innocently: "We can ambush in the dark. You pretend to be kidnapped and be held hostage by us. In order to save you, he will definitely pretend to be nice to us. I know his weaknesses well. As long as I hit him hard, he will lose his ability to move, and then watch you being taken away. Well... there is no need to watch you being taken away. You are just a bait to lure him in. Moreover, the master also needs to keep in contact with him to absorb the card energy of my existence."
"...As a ghost, I can be said to be elusive. My identity is a cultist who hates [Sword Saint] and has some evil unknown rituals. The purpose of kidnapping you is to attack him. Then, we will lock you in a room, taunt him every day, and treat the master badly in front of him... Oh," the ghost who came up with the plan was slapped on the hand, and then continued: "...but he can only do nothing, his heart is full of anger and grief. When he has learned his lesson and slowly gathered his strength, we will pretend to fail and let him rescue you... Then..."
"Stop for a moment, what are you talking about?"
"Cough cough." [The Nameless Saint] pretended to cough.
"What kind of third-rate pornographic setting is this! Big brother, isn't this your real body?" Li Yuebai was shocked: "Did I make a mistake? You two just look alike, have the same name, and similar settings."
"Yes, isn't he me? He is me and I am him. I became famous at a young age and thought I was the best in the world. I was born with a unique luck and have escaped from desperate situations countless times. Therefore, I am always unsure when facing things. It's time for the master to teach me a lesson."
[The Nameless Saint] smiled in a very harmless way.
This time, Li Yuebai no longer thought that this was a sunny and cheerful guy.
*
The plan was not very complicated and was executed smoothly.
The next day, when Ye Jian went to the room to find Li Yuebai, he found that the quilt was cold and the person had disappeared, but a strange energy remained in the room.
[The Nameless Saint] knows exactly how to get yourself hooked, how to get yourself lost, and how to get yourself controlled by others.
After all... that was his past.
The difference is that he has one more weak spot, and all his weaknesses are known by the "enemy".
The "enemy" knows himself better than he knows himself.
Even so, it is difficult to kill him, but it is not impossible to make him unconscious.
"…Who on earth are you?"
Ye Jian could tell that the "enemy" had no intention of killing Li Yuebai, but he was still concerned and fell into the trap. Before he passed out, he used his last bit of consciousness to activate the protective technique he developed.
——He left some kind of mark on Li Yuebai and integrated a drop of his own blood into it.
However, this ability was not fully activated.
It should have provided him with a shield-like defensive state and sent him to the nearest city teleportation point, but while the defensive part was successful, the teleportation part failed.
The reinforcements that were supposed to arrive also seemed to be held back. Although the reinforcements were not strong, they might at least be able to keep Yuebai...
The faceless shadowy "enemy" spoke in the same voice as himself, with a happy smile: "Ah, isn't this the secret technique invented by the self-proclaimed strong [Sword Saint] that has never failed and has never been cracked by anyone? What a pity, we accidentally cracked it!"
It was his mistake, as he only managed to crack half of it.
So far.
The flag set by Ye Jian:
"I will protect you well."
"I'll tell you before I go."
"I'll finish my mission and come back to play with you."
All failed.
What a pathetic and tragic lucky character this is.
If he had learned a lesson, it would be to remember that the mouth can cause trouble, right?
The black-haired young man covered in blood looked pale and weak in coma, but in fact he had extremely thick skin and flesh, and would not die even if he was hit hard in the weak spots ten times.
"But if we have reached this point, at least keeping him for two days will be enough. I have imprisoned him. Even if he wakes up, he will be like a useless person and unable to move."
[The Nameless Saint] held Li Yuebai in his arms and lifted up his younger self in his right hand, and came to an enclosed abandoned place. It was said that this was the safe house that the Sword Saint had arranged yesterday, so no one would disturb them.
You really know how to take advantage of others.
No wonder his disciple became a ruthless man who castrated himself. It turned out that it was because the upper beam was crooked and the lower beams were crooked.
When they are not expending huge amounts of energy to allow the power of cards to affect reality, their voices can only be heard by players.
Although Li Yuebai wanted to complain a lot, he just listened to the [Nameless Saint]'s chattering in silence, in case Ye Jian was unconscious but still aware of the outside world.
In one fell swoop, he used up all the card energy he had accumulated since he traveled through time. At this moment, many cards such as the Gemini and Death Knight were already motionless in the card pool and would no longer respond to his call.
"In order to live frugally, I will remain asleep for the time being. Please wake me up when my main body wakes up. During this period, if the master does something excessive to the main body, it is not impossible. I really need the energy provided by the main body now." [Nameless Saint] smiled and said, "No matter what he does, I will take the blame anyway, so please do as you please, master."
Aren't you the type who blushes when you're kissed? How come you're so skilled?
Ye Jian was covered in blood, and even though he was unconscious, his brows were furrowed and his expression was painful. Although Li Yuebai's XP was beyond that of an ordinary person, he didn't have the habit of doing anything to the bleeding wounded in the small dark room.
He approached him and pushed aside his wet hair, hoping to absorb some of the energy of the card itself through contact to replenish his inventory, but he heard this guy mumbling to himself.
He leaned closer and listened.
"...Yuebai."
Vague mumbling in sleep.
In the deepest and most inescapable dream, Ye Jian saw a quiet blue.
His consciousness was not completely asleep, but it was almost inactive. At the most critical moment, his body would forcefully wake him up and throw him into the next round of battle.
In the blue, he sensed a soft cloud, or maybe a leaf, gently blowing through his dream world.
