"Teacher, we're leaving now. Thank you for saving us and helping us become stronger."
Mao Anyan and the other two waved to Xiao Yi again and walked towards the car.
After taking two steps, An Yao couldn't help but turn back and found that Xiao Yi was gone, and the sunflower seed shells on the ground were also gone, leaving only a panda slowly crawling inside.
She didn't look up to find the window. She swung her sword and sent the zombie flying. She quickly wiped her eyes, strode up to catch up with the two people who had also stopped for a second, and got into the car together.
001 usually doesn't float in the air to scare people when he's around. Now that there's no "person" watching, he leans out of the balcony window and looks down, his eyes following the car as it leaves the park. A fierce storm rages through the area, beating the zombies into a sorry state.
There was no reluctance in his eyes; he simply watched quietly as three more passersby left.
He appeared emotionally expressive, but his inner ruthlessness was exactly like that of his mission taker.
"Awoooooo..."
The zombie hanging on the balcony was still howling and shouting in an incomprehensible zombie language.
Although his strength has not improved, the white in his eyes has faded a bit, and the gray has become darker. Judging from his daily reactions, his vision is indeed gradually recovering, but he still can't speak human language.
001 made a face at him, then turned to Di Xiu and asked, "What's next? Going to Base Five?"
Di Xiu slowly shook his head: "I have no plans for the time being."
“That’s right. Ximen Hui, Chu Rongrong, and Chu Yang are all here. If you go now, they’ll definitely pester you.”
"Yes, it is indeed quite a headache."
"So you're just going to keep drifting around like this? Although I quite like being out there."
Di Xiu pondered for a moment, looked at the hanging zombie, and changed the subject: "I've been thinking about something."
001 found his almost heartfelt way of speaking rather strange, and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Can I give you some advice?"
“Simon Hui and I are sworn enemies, and we will fight to the death sooner or later. In my opinion, we should just kill him, but that would go against the mission.”
The mission for Simon Hui didn't even require him to be in a sorry state, so there was no way to mention killing him. This made him very proactive at first, but now he is very passive.
When 001 heard him talk about the mission, he also lowered his head and pondered. After a while, he nodded heavily and said, "Wang Hao is different from Ximen Hui. He's too naive. He doesn't even have the requirement to suppress or cripple people... Speaking of which, is castration considered a serious disability? Oh well, it won't prevent him from surviving in the apocalypse. In short, given his requirements, you will most likely only be able to retaliate passively, unless you risk the possibility of mission failure."
The main system's task matching mechanism is quite sophisticated. The tasker and the matched task are generally well-matched. For example, it won't happen if it's a poorly acting Emperor Xiu being asked to act, or someone who's afraid of ghosts being asked to go to the supernatural world. Therefore, very few people fail their tasks.
—Unless they're courting death or the mission taker is insane.
Therefore, it is said that the punishment for failing a mission is very severe, and all systems that have experienced this are very tight-lipped about it.
"You should probably play it safe."
Di Xiu rubbed his head, a strange light flashing in his eyes: "What if we could find out the cause of the original owner's death?"
001 rubbed against his palm, muttered something, and asked in confusion, "How do we find this? You suspected Simon Hui before, but even if he did it, can you summon his past life to ask him?"
"It's not impossible."
001 was so surprised by his idea that she didn't know what to say.
Previously, I had transmitted a timeline to Ariel, but strictly speaking, that wasn't about restoring her past life memories; it was just about letting her know the general outline of her past life. This time, however, I need to delve into the details.
The timeline doesn't directly mention some of Simon Hui's evil deeds. Like most novels, it uses montage techniques. For example, he just glances coldly at someone, who might "unluckily" die while out and about because of a momentary lapse in concentration.
His psychic abilities can kill without leaving a trace, so even if he did it, there would be no evidence.
What they need now is this evidence, evidence that only exists in the memory of Simon Hui within this timeline.
Is there anything I can do to help you?
Looking at his expectant eyes, Di Xiu pondered for a moment, a smile flashing in his eyes: "Would you mind protecting me?"
001's eyes lit up, and he patted his chest, saying, "Leave it to me."
Poor little panda Lingling finally crawled to the door and started scratching at the door panel intermittently. As soon as she was let in, she immediately collapsed into a liquid.
It was covered in dirt, and the once clean and tidy floor was now stained black. Looking at the door panel, two black vertical lines appeared as well.
001, who was about to pounce, vanished in mid-air, his feelings for Xiong Aifei gone just like that.
Di Xiu pinched the bridge of his nose, unsure whether it was for 001 who was hiding or for this genuine brat.
He used to pinch Lingling by the scruff of her neck to make her stand up and face the wall in repentance. He chanted a spell, and a ball of water appeared in the air, enveloping her from top to bottom, instantly transforming her from a black bear into a black and white bear.
The murky water swallowed the filth on the ground, wriggled its way to the bathroom, and returned to the earth through the toilet.
Di Xiu put another talisman on the brat and cleaned and disinfected it again before letting 001 roll around with it.
After doing all that, he sat down on the bed to meditate. 001 gestured for Lingling to be quiet, then glared at Cai Wenbin who was howling loudly outside. He closed the balcony door and snuggled up with the clean and tidy Xiong Aifei to watch cartoons.
Emperor Xiu's soul left his body, passed through the floors, and went straight to the rooftop.
Eighty-one crystal cores were embedded in the rooftop, along with thirty-six different runes, forming a very impressive array.
When his soul was sensed entering the array, the crystal core and runes lit up simultaneously.
Emperor Xiu's eyes shone brightly as he gazed at the sky for a long time. What he saw was not the vast and boundless universe and stars, but a sleeping world spirit, which was also the Heavenly Dao of this place.
Awakening the Heavenly Dao rashly, especially one that is advancing in its cultivation stage, is hardly considerate. However, seeing the alternating flashes of spiritual and dark light on its body, there was no point in letting it continue sleeping. So, the Emperor Cultivator unceremoniously began the wake-up service.
The appearance of Wuji, even though it was partially suppressed by the Emperor Cultivator, still powerfully alarmed the heavens and earth. This commotion, almost like the shouting of robbers in one's own home, directly woke up the Heavenly Dao.
001 looked up for a moment, then casually looked away, and bent her fingers, a shield of energy enveloping the body on the bed.
"Boom—"
The earth and sky roared in unison, the sound echoing throughout the entire planet. However, the oceans did not experience tsunamis, and the skyscrapers showed no signs of collapsing. The erupting volcano, however, was put on pause.
Before anyone could even register the strange occurrence, they were frozen in place.
"Human? Huh? You're not human. Where did you come from?" Just as Tiandao was about to get angry after being woken up, he realized that there were really robbers in his house, and he immediately became alert.
As a spirit, it was calculating the likelihood of devouring him; the pure aura on him was what it desperately needed.
