Chapter 305: Uriel's Analysis, Father and Son Mortal Kombat (asking for monthly votes)
The sky was clear and the private plane was still on its way to Osaka, Japan.
In the second cabin, Gu Qinye lowered his head to read a book, while Yuriel was playing games on a tablet computer beside him.
Kalina put one hand in the pocket of her white coat and held an academic magazine on animal anatomy in the other hand, her eyes were bright behind the goggles.
Sometimes she let out a damp laugh, sometimes she hummed softly, and it seemed that she couldn't wait to dissect the light-eating bee with her own hands.
The ninety-nine girl twitched her eyebrows and sat a little further away from her in disgust, hugging her shoulders and staring out the window in a daze, her pink ponytail blown up and down by the air-conditioning.
Garfield wore an eye mask and turned up the collar of his black sweater to cover his mouth. The boy with blue hair and blue eyes was sleeping in his seat.
Beside him, Urushihara Ruri was holding her chin, staring blankly at the endless sea of clouds.
Gu Qiye suddenly thought of something, so he asked Yuriel: "By the way, I have always been curious...why did the Indian government allow the Puppet Father to make Ajaya into a puppet?"
Uriel opened her mouth but before she could answer, the boy in the sweater sitting behind the two of them spoke.
"We've signed the agreement." Garfield said calmly, "A dead mutant is of little value to them, even if it's a natural disaster level mutant. They can definitely make a fortune by exchanging Ajaya's body for some benefits."
"Garfield has a strong desire to show off." Urushihara Ruri said, "They are in love with each other. Do you need your help to answer?"
Garfield didn't even raise his head or take off his blindfold. He just raised his right hand high and raised his middle finger so that Urushihara Ruri, who was sitting behind him, could see it.
"Speaking of which... Is Puppet Father the strongest one in Hongyi?" Gu Qiye turned his head and asked, "After all, I saw the information you gave me the other day, saying that he has the corpses of two Calamity-level Psychics in his hands. Doesn't this mean that he has double the Calamity-level combat power?"
Uriel was silent for a moment, pausing the music game on her tablet.
“I don’t think so,” she said.
"Why?"
Uriel turned her head and looked at him: "Actually, I feel that you are the strongest one, or rather, the one that is most difficult to guard against."
Gu Qinye was stunned.
"You think I'm the strongest in Rainbow Wing?"
"Yes, you are faster than any of us, and your destructive power is not to be underestimated. At least your single-target destructive power is definitely not inferior to anyone in Rainbow Wing." Yuriel said, "In a surprise attack, speed means an absolute advantage. If you can control the Father of Puppetry, then his puppets will lose their meaning."
"I wish I were as good as you say." Gu Qinye laughed dryly.
He didn't expect that in Yuriel's heart, he was actually stronger than the Puppet Father. He thought Yuriel would treat him as a rookie who had just entered Rainbow Wing.
Yuriel said calmly, "That being said, your ability has just undergone a secondary mutation. It will take some time to adapt and improve stability."
"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." Urushihara Ruri yawned and said faintly, "Maybe the Father of Puppet has more than two Calamity-level corpses, or maybe... he himself is a puppet? In that case, there's no point in you capturing his real body."
Yuriel ignored her, thought for a moment, and then said to Gu Qiye:
"For example, if this were in a game, your position would be 'Assassin', my position would be 'Mage', Ninety-Nine's position would be 'Archer', and Puppet Father's position would be 'Summoner'... Assassins can use their excellent mobility to easily get close to mages, archers, and summoners, and strangle them in the cradle before they can use their full strength."
Gu Qinye seemed to understand and nodded.
As he listened, he suddenly remembered the time when he played "Aliens" at home with Su Zimai, Gu Wenyu and Gu Zhuoan.
In the game, "Blue Arc" is indeed defined as an "assassin character", the same is true for "Yingwu", "Tunyin" is a tough warrior, and "Captain Condor" is a shooter.
Gu Qiye suddenly remembered that several rounds of "Blue Arc" were used in the Gu Zhuo case.
He burst out laughing, thinking that his father had been hinting at that time that he already knew his identity.
"As expected of an internet-addicted girl." Urushihara Ruri raised her lips, "The examples you gave are so earthy, full of middle school second-year vibes."
Uriel ignored her again and continued, "But when participating in large-scale battles, you may not perform as well as mages and archers. Ninety-nine is good at long-range combat, and the weapons he summons cover a very wide range. I am good at medium-range combat, and I won't go into details about the reasons."
"The guy from Iceland, why do you have to use me as an example?" Jiujiu looked a little unhappy, frowned slightly and turned his head away, "Besides, what do you mean I will be killed instantly by the newcomer?"
"This is just an objective statement. If you have enough time to prepare, then you can launch a large-scale indiscriminate fire coverage, and there is indeed a chance to accidentally injure him." Yuriel said, "But in an encounter, I think you don't have a chance to release the munitions, and he will be bullied and close to you, and then he has a hundred ways to kill you."
Jiujiu lowered his little face, black lines appeared on his forehead, and his pink eyebrows jumped.
She was so angry that she took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's give it a try then."
Urushihara Ruri smiled slightly and reminded, "There is no internal fighting in Hongyi, so you can only imagine it." She spread her hands and said, "Come to think of it, why are all the children assigned to this table? I should apply to take the cabin next door."
“I feel like you’re more like a child,” Uriel said, “in every sense of the word.”
"I don't want to be told that by someone who has a flat body." Urushihara Ruri said calmly.
"But I won't get old. I'll visit you in a few decades and laugh at the reading glasses on your face."
"Are you sure I can live that long?" Urushihara Ruri looked out the window, thoughtfully.
Garfield took off his steam mask and his blue hair fell down.
He opened his eyes and looked at Yuriel curiously, "What profession would my ability be in the game?"
"You are a warrior." Yuriel said calmly, "Every time you like to drive a Gundam and rush forward without thinking... Even if you are a mage, you are a melee mage."
"That's a harsh statement. Can't I be a mechanic?" Garfield put on his eye mask and continued to rest.
"Then what are Miss Kalina's abilities?" Gu Qinye asked casually, looking at the blonde woman in a white coat who was flipping through a magazine.
"Me?" Kalina raised her goggles. "I can lock people up in a polar region, like a volcano or a snowfield... I really want to lock the queen bee up in there and enjoy a world for two with her, hahahaha..."
After saying that, she licked her lips.
"Kalina..." Yuriel thought for a moment, "She is only interested in some strange geographical environments, strange creatures, and some things that resemble pyramids."
"I can see that." Gu Qinye nodded. Kalina's quirks were evident in the meeting. She even asked the commander to dissect the queen bee herself, as if she wanted to find out what the reproductive organs of the light-eating bee looked like.
"Do you play games?" Uriel asked suddenly.
"I don't play much." Gu Qinye shook his head.
"So, what games have you played?"
Gu Qinye thought about it.
"'Alien Alliance'? The association sent me a beta version at the time, and I played it with my family."
"That's right, it's on my tablet." Yuriel said, taking out a pair of controllers and connecting them to the tablet via Bluetooth.
Without saying anything, she gave one of the controllers to Gu Qinye, and then found "Aliens" on the desk.
As you enter the game, a passionate electric guitar music suddenly starts playing.
A blood-red logo of the Outlander Association slowly popped up above the dim screen. Yuriel used the controller to skip, select the mode, and directly enter the battle selection interface.
Gu Qiye glanced at the character list and asked in surprise, "Why are there 'Ghost Bell' and 'Black Pupa' in the character selection interface?"
Uriel explained: "This is a player-made mod, so there are a lot of villains added."
"Won't this version be banned? For example, because it has a bad influence on minors?"
"It's okay to play it secretly." Uriel said expressionlessly, "Besides, this version is very popular and widely circulated, so the authorities can't ban it."
"Okay, then I choose... 'Black Pupa'."
Gu Qinye shrugged helplessly, and as he spoke, he operated the handle and selected the black pupa.
Yuriel also operated the controller and selected "Ghost Bell". She and Gu Qiye put their heads close together, and they watched the character portraits disappear one by one on the character selection interface, and then entered the battle interface, and the characters of both sides jumped out from both sides of the screen.
A black pupa swung from the sky with restraints on, wrapping its entire body into a pupa, and quietly hung upside down under a street lamp; the ghost bell summoned a huge bell tower behind it, and howled towards the sky, breathing heavily under the metal breathing mask.
The insect pupa slowly cracked open, revealing a black pupa holding a book. At the same time, a blood bar appeared above the heads of the two characters, as well as the air collecting tube necessary for releasing ultimate skills.
At this point, Gu Qinye finally couldn't hold it anymore when looking at the ghost clock on the screen.
He hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you choose 'Ghost Bell'?"
"According to my analysis, you care so much about Ghost Bell because you feel regretful for not being able to defeat him in person and take revenge on him," said Uriel. "So, I think you can defeat him a few more times in the game to overcome the psychological trauma."
She paused and said, "Although I am an old hand, I will give you some slack."
Gu Qiye felt a little amused. He took a deep breath and said meaningfully:
"Okay, I'm here for revenge."
As soon as he finished speaking, he controlled the black pupa to shoot out a restraint belt to tie up the street lamp, grabbed the restraint belt and flew forward in a circle, then kicked Ghost Bell in the chest.
“Ah——!” The ghost clock on the screen screamed.
The shadow under Gui Zhong suddenly rose up, and he and the shadow attacked the black pupa from both sides.
Gu Qiye raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, has this game also included Dad’s shadow ability?
Seeing the ghost bell and shadow attacking him, he rubbed the handle violently, and then the black pupa's restraint belt was suddenly covered with layers of silver-white blades.
In an instant, the black pupa rotated the restraint belt at high speed, forming a storm of blades, which repelled the ghost bell and its shadow.
"Ah——!" The ghost clock on the screen screamed again.
The black pupa grabbed the ghost bell with a restraint belt, flew over, stole the ghost bell's power, and summoned a huge bell tower.
With a "bang", the bell tower fell from the sky and hit the ghost clock head that had just crawled up from the ground.
"Ahhh!" The ghost clock on the screen screamed again and again. It was pressed under the bell tower and could not get up. There was a pool of blood under it.
After a moment, his proud head dropped to the ground, and the health bar above his head finally returned to zero.
Yuriel was silent for a while, and Gu Qinye was also silent for a while.
The two of them looked at the screen silently without speaking for a long time.
The game entered the victory settlement screen. Black Pupa stepped on Ghost Bell's body, dancing a coquettish hula dance, and occasionally played skipping rope with the restraints. There were rows of footprints on Ghost Bell's back, and the body sank deeper and deeper into the pit.
After a while, Yuriel turned her head and asked with concern: "How are you? Do you feel better?"
Gu Qinye turned his eyes away from Gui Zhong in the game and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's indeed much better. Thank you for considering my feelings so much." He raised his head and said deeply.
"If you're not satisfied, we can play a few more rounds." Yuriel said, "I'll continue to choose Ghost Bell for you to beat."
"Then I really do...thank you."
