Chapter 17 Smash the reality and explode the spirit! ! !
It was just past twelve in the morning.
Li Zang was in his small rental house when he received a notification from the system.
[Ding, the third diary will be published on the short video platform Douyin. Once the popularity exceeds 200,000, the next stage will begin. 】
[Tik Tok, record your beautiful life.] 】
Not only that, this time the system also brings new tricks...
[Ding, from now on, the system will stop distributing newbie benefits, no longer provide free hot list services, no longer provide free past life memory services... Open the paid system question and answer module, open the paid smart section, open the mall module...]
There is no pattern, it always comes whenever it wants.
The long list of things that were no longer free but required payment instantly gave Li Zang a sense that he was playing a shady online game.
All unscrupulous online games use this routine. They first lure players into the trap with free trials and limited-time props, and then raise their sickles to reap the profits!
We can't say they are exactly the same, we can only say they are exactly the same!
But there are also advantages. When the system is intelligent, he no longer has to face a cold system. He can find a GM, which is equivalent to having one more person to discuss things with.
Li Zang asked with a smile: "System, so you can finally respond to me now?"
[Ding, to answer this question, you need to pay 100 Fantasy Coins, do you want to pay? 】
Li Zang's smile disappeared.
TM, this kind of question is also paid? Do you still have any shame? What a dark heart!
Li Zang never spends money when playing games. After complaining, he just starts to explore on his own. After a while, he found the mall module and opened the system mall section out of curiosity.
What caught his eye were densely packed items of various categories, and at the top of the panel was his balance - 34,020 Fantasy Coins.
"System, where did this fantasy coin come from?"
【bite……】
Li Zang was speechless: "Your developer is definitely a profiteer! Okay, I'll pay!"
[Ding, there are three ways to obtain Fantasy Coins. One: Each time you complete a task, the system will settle the score based on the host's task. In addition to the three major reward options, additional Fantasy Coins will be awarded. The number of Fantasy Coins will be linked to the difficulty of the task and the task score. 】
[2. After the replay ends and you return ten years later, kill the various creatures recorded in the fantasy diary and obtain corresponding fantasy coins based on the strength of the creatures. 】
[Third, you can obtain a large amount of fantasy coins in the activities that the system will hold from time to time...]
Li Zang nodded slightly to show that he understood.
This is equivalent to completing a task in the game. The three major reward options are the main rewards, and fantasy coins are the additional rewards, but the role of these fantasy coins is that after accumulating a little bit, you can freely buy what you need.
In addition, killing wild monsters will drop money, and actively participating in activities organized by the system can also get fantasy coins, although I don’t know what activities there are yet.
A proper game style...
Li Zang saw a category labeled [Memory Fragments] on the mall panel, so he curiously clicked in to take a look. The first thing he saw was the various memory fragments and their prices...
Li Zang searched and soon found something familiar.
[Memory fragments of the complete cultivation method of the Dark Divine Body]——1 million Fantasy Coins.
[Memory fragments of the complete cultivation method of the immortal and indestructible sacred Taoism] - 2 million fantasy coins.
[Memory fragments of the complete cultivation method of Shiye Destroying the World] - 1 million fantasy coins.
The reason why Li Zang set his eyes on these [commodities] was naturally because he had some memories of these magic techniques and martial arts in his mind.
That’s right, except for the complete version of the Eternal Night Darkness Method, most of the memories in Li Zang’s mind are incomplete...
Some of them were not much incomplete, but if a technique was missing, it was missing. A slight mistake would lead to a huge loss. Li Zang did not dare to learn it carelessly...
He had been counting on the next mission to gain more memories of past lives, and then unlock the complete versions of all the unique skills... but now, everything is charged!
Oh my god, it turns out he was waiting for me here!
“These are obviously my own memories of my past life, but they actually charge for them? How cruel, so cruel!” Li Zang shamelessly complained. The more he thought about it, the more speechless he became, but he felt helpless.
Because, Li Zang saw at the very bottom of the system mall, there was a line of words that couldn’t be any smaller - the right to interpret all products in this mall belongs to this system.
This explanation looks really familiar...
Li Zang instantly felt that this system must have been studied in the game department of Penguin. As we all know, big companies bully people.
In addition to memory fragments of martial arts techniques, the system also sells memories of various things that the Emperor of Eternal Night and Darkness encountered during his long life.
Big or small, no matter how big or small, it is just like the skin of a king, as complicated as the foot binding of women in the old society.
Obviously, the system has woven the life of the Dark Emperor of Eternal Night in the diary.
This life is very long.
Li Zang flipped through several hundred pages. The page number below showed that the last page had eight digits, and there was a long string of ellipsis after the key...
This is outrageous, could it really be billions of years?
How many gigabytes of memory would be needed to record the life memories of such a person?
Li Zang really wanted to buy these memories, especially those that were coded but the price was not high...
[Memory fragments of the wedding night of the Dark Emperor of Eternal Night]——2000 Fantasy Coins.
[Memory fragments of the Eternal Night Dark Emperor teasing the goddess] - 2000 Fantasy Coins.
Li Zang just wanted to know what his wife looked like in his previous life? Why are these memory fragments censored? Are they doing something unspeakable?
“…”
Li Zang used great willpower to suppress this thought.
Forget it, forget it, people should still have some moral integrity...
Going back to the main page of the mall and looking at other categories, I found that they also sell weapons.
[Tianyuan Sword (the childhood toy of the Dark Emperor of Eternal Night)] - 20,000 Fantasy Coins.
[Xuantianjian (Young Armguard of the Dark Emperor of Eternal Night)]——500,000 Fantasy Coins.
[Sword of Destiny (Emperor's Divine Weapon)]——Not unlocked.
[Supreme Star (The Emperor's Palace, with countless treasures)] - 100 million Jing Fantasy Coins.
Li Zang: “…”
These things are real objects, which is outrageous. Could they have appeared out of thin air?
Uh... if you think about it carefully, the system can take itself to the past and then change the future, so it doesn't seem difficult to create something.
But why does this Supreme Star sound so familiar, as if it has appeared in my middle school diary... Wait, could it be the habitable planet with a radius of 100 billion light years? ? ?
Li Zang seemed to still have some impression and fell silent instantly.
A planet with a radius of 100 billion light years...how big must that be! ! !
He was wondering if he could start saving money to buy a house from today.
If all the people on Earth were to move to a planet like this, with an average housing area of 800 trillion square kilometers per person, there would still be some left, right?
But, 100 million Jing Fantasy Coins? ? ?
The unit of calculation for this house is 100 million Jing. Even if it is Happy Beans, when converted into Life Coins, it is an astronomical figure that can make people dizzy.
Li Zang's idea of buying a house was killed in the cradle. He estimated that after completing all the diary tasks, he couldn't even afford it...
Damn, no matter where you are, a house is always the most expensive thing!
He decided not to look at it anymore. After looking at it, he felt that he was still that poor bastard. Li Zang chose to retreat and browse other categories of goods. This browsing lasted for several hours.
Black technology is worthy of being called black technology. It is so dazzling that it really opens your eyes!
The system mall also sells the Douyin hot list service.
【TikTok Hot List Top 1 Service】——1000 Fantasy Coins.
…
【TikTok Hot List Top 10 Service】——100 Fantasy Coins.
Li Zang casually spent nine hundred fantasy coins to buy a top 2 service. Apart from anything else, as a fellow emperor, he had to give that person some face and not steal his limelight.
As for the news about the dog demon, just suppress it!
Li Zang thought about it again and again, and spent some money to ask the system what he needed most at the moment. Following the system's recommendation, he spent another 10,000 fantasy coins to buy a memory fragment.
[Memory fragments of the Eternal Night Dark Emperor’s combat experience at the age of fifteen]—10,000 Fantasy Coins.
At present, what Li Zang lacks most is combat experience, although for the time being he is still the coolest man in the world.
But as more and more diaries become reality, that may not be the case anymore...
If he had the experience of martial arts skills that the Emperor of Eternal Night and Darkness had when he was young, he could save a lot of time in exploring the techniques and martial arts on his own. At the same time, he would have the means to solve problems when he encountered danger!
The fifteen-year-old Emperor of Eternal Night and Darkness has not yet embarked on the endless journey, nor has he created his own powerful Eternal Night and Darkness method. His strength is only slightly stronger than his current self.
This memory is just right.
In this memory, the fifteen-year-old Emperor of Eternal Night and Darkness was very young and not strong, but he worked very hard in his training. He was beaten every other day. He was either on his way looking for someone to fight, fighting, or lying in bed.
After Li Zang accepted this memory, he felt a dull pain all over his body.
Although this is just a psychological feeling and has no effect on the body, these memories are so real, as if they were personal experiences.
He also once again deeply felt how outrageous the existence of the Emperor of Eternal Darkness who he had imagined was.
Although the Emperor of Eternal Night was not very strong when he was young, he was born into a noble family, had extraordinary talent, and received the best martial arts education. He not only had ordinary boxing and kicking skills, but also a series of complete sets of magic...
For him now, it is not difficult to master this kind of magic.
It’s not like the Dark Divine Body or the Ten Nights World-Destroying Body… Even if he could afford it, he couldn’t practice it. That thing is too far away from him now.
It even includes the Darkness of Eternal Night and the Eye of Eternity!
Li Zang now finally understood why the system strongly recommended him to choose the Eternal Eye after the first mission. It was because he could not cultivate the Eternal Eye through serious practice with his current strength.
The Eternal Eyes required a very high level of divine power as a foundation, and then a large number of divine objects as a supplement. The most outrageous of all, to create a pair of Eternal Eyes, one actually needed to absorb a certain amount of black holes and white holes with the eyes...
The difficulty of practicing the Eternal Night Darkness Method is also very high. In the task settlement rewards, it will appear as pure divine power, which can be regarded as an entry ticket. Once you step into the threshold, as long as you have the skills, you can practice on your own. It is not a very rare reward.
However, the techniques are different, and the reward list when the task is completed will correspond to the content recorded in the diary.
For example, the Eye of Eternity is not mentioned in the second diary, so even if the task is completed well, there will be no reward option for the Eye of Eternity.
As for why the self in the middle school diary can practice various top-level methods, it is because the diary is a diary, and reality is reality.
The system now tells me in this way that there is still a gap between myself in my middle school diary and myself now, and the gap is huge!
If you want to become as perverted as yourself in the diary, you have to constantly complete the diary replay tasks perfectly, and then get better rewards!
That’s right, you still need to complete more tasks!
Li Zang thought of this and immediately took out his phone and opened TikTok. He was extremely curious and wanted to know the content of the third diary. What kind of nonsense did his former middle school self write...
A picture, enlarged.
With the background music, savor it carefully...
[June 4, 2012, sunny.] 】
[Traveling in the wilds of Yuan Mountain, my heart is filled with anxiety.] 】
[I have seen many peaks and magnificent scenery on Mount Yuan, so I think there must be something extraordinary there. As expected, I have used the method of deciphering the texts of the myriad worlds to forcibly translate the true meaning of the texts and murals in the Qingkong Cave. It turns out that this is the place where demons live in ancient mythology...]
[The solution is as follows: Place the five fingers of your left hand against your forehead, stretch out your right hand, point your index finger at the ancient characters and murals, and chant the spell - shatter the reality, explode the spirit, exile it to the sealed place outside this world, and unlock it! ! ! 】
[With my operation, I easily broke through the seal and entered the sealed land where countless demons existed. I took a walk around it. Tsk, I thought there was something scary there, but it turned out to be just some small minions and demons. It was not worth my effort to clean them up. When I left, I added another seal. If nothing unexpected happened, I could trap the demons in Yuanshan for a hundred or eighty years. 】
[There was an accident during the sealing process, which resulted in a landslide... But it's not a big deal. I have extraordinary skills and won't let any mortal get hurt. 】
[The peace of China has been maintained. It is another beautiful day. You are worthy of being the seat. Just do good things and don’t worry about the future. 】
[I suddenly have an epiphany. Well, I want to change my name. I don't want to be called the Emperor of Eternal Night and Darkness anymore. Please call me the Chinese Peacekeeping Emperor, or 'Huawei Emperor' for short! 】
Li Zang was rolling back and forth on his bed, using the amnesia technique to force himself to quickly forget the shame he felt when he read the diary.
Blind, blind, really going blind.
The Nima solution is as follows! ! !
When Li Zang saw that there was actually additional performance teaching, his head was buzzing!
It’s shameful, it’s shameful, so shameful!
Li Zang should have been mentally prepared for these diaries and had some resistance, but he still had some impression of the events that gave rise to these diaries.
It was when I was in the first grade of junior high school, and the whole class went on an outing to Yuanshan.
As for the outing, everyone had a lot of fun.
Yuanshan Qingkong Cave is a famous scenic spot in the local area.
First, due to its special structure, the temperature inside the cave is constant. No matter it is dozens of degrees below zero in winter or over 30 degrees in summer, the indoor temperature in the Qingkong Cave always remains around 20 degrees. This is magical, so Yuanshan has always been a famous tourist destination in the surrounding area.
The second reason is that the stone walls inside the Qingkong Cave are engraved with many ancient texts and murals dating back thousands of years.
Those texts and murals were all ancient folk myths. Li Zang had no idea what they were about, but he vaguely remembered hearing about them from the older generation. They should have been folk tales about ancient people worshipping gods and ghosts.
This kind of folk legend can be found in many places across the country. Most of them are because humans in the old days did not understand science, and they over-interpreted all kinds of strange phenomena happening around them, and even forcibly mixed them together with demons and monsters.
If we say that humans in ancient times did not understand science and associated incomprehensible phenomena and things with ghosts and monsters, then I, who had the second-year syndrome at that time, would definitely be a rebel against the nine-year compulsory education in modern society!
Did you learn all that science knowledge in six years of primary school in vain? !
God, smash reality! This kind of line cannot be written by an anime otaku who has not watched "Chuunibyou ga Koi ga Shitai"...
This anime had just been released that year. As a person with the Chuunibyou syndrome, I fell deeply in love with Rikka Takanashi and looked down on the male protagonist who had abandoned the world of Chuunibyou! ! !
The truth of this world will always be in the hands of a small number of people!
At that time, he really thought so...
My middle school self was so scary!
Moreover, in the Clear Sky Cave, he not only recited the shameful lines, but what was even more shameful was that he also took action!
No no no...don't recall this, my brain!
Ah mea butterfly! ! !
Improved the system settings...
