Chapter 140 Doomsday Manor 40+41
"Perhaps because of your supernatural powers and abilities, your senses are far stronger than those of ordinary people. These Crimson Star people are completely unaware that you have overheard their entire secret conversation."
"Then you'll understand that what they mean by 'seizing a body' is probably the robot that looks just like you."
"As for the mention of being sent away at night, perhaps it's the one-month deadline Dongzhen mentioned. He really doesn't tell the truth much."
"If we are indeed sent back to the Doomsday Manor at nightfall, then your previous plan will be difficult to implement."
"But it's just a backup plan, so it's not a big problem."
"Seeing that these Crimson Star people were still discussing and making a huge fuss, I couldn't stand it anymore."
"Instead of playing games with them, we should just press them for answers."
"With a thought, the speed of the aerial train instantly increased to 200 miles per hour."
"In the blink of an eye, you have kidnapped one of the leaders on the elevator platform."
"The kidnapped person was named Xi Shuang. It wasn't until you grabbed Xi Shuang by the neck and sat with her in the car that the others exclaimed her name in alarm, and they were all in a panic."
"These Crimson Star people may have combat abilities, but compared to supernatural powers and special abilities, their combat strength is completely inadequate."
"No wonder those giant beasts down there are so arrogant, and there are quite a few of them."
"It should be very difficult to deal with, even if we use technological means."
"However, given their current technology, although they possess relatively advanced flying and combat warships, their speed cannot match that of an aerial train, and their numbers are probably not many."
"They're busy trying to appease you, telling you not to get angry and not to hurt Xi Shuang, but you're ignoring it."
"The Little Demon Hammer materializes in your hands."
"This hammer hasn't absorbed blood in a long time. If you don't satisfy me, or if you lie to me, I'll let your blood feed my weapon," you said, looking at Xi Shuang with a threatening gaze.
Xi Shuang closed her eyes and looked at the people on the fortress.
"They had worries, disappointments, and resentment."
"Xi Shuang's face was full of bitterness. After planning for many days, their plan had died in the womb."
Xi Shuang sighed, and finally spoke slowly: "Then I will answer your questions one by one. The trading website does exist."
"This is a disaster they brought upon themselves. You've already shown mercy by not directly wielding the monster to kill them."
"There were indeed quite a few people teleported from Crimson Star there. At first, the transactions were quite normal, and in the last year or two, four or five people would return. But now, only Dongzhen is returning alive every day."
"The planet used for the trade cannot be changed by the alien traveler, except through the introducer."
"Each alien traveler can only travel to one planet for trading per day, and the time limit is one day of the destination planet. The reason for saying one day is that the length of a day varies from planet to planet."
"The reason we had Dongzhen bring the others back to Crimson Star is because our planet is in crisis and needs the help of powerful individuals. However, we might not be able to afford the payment, so we want to seize control of your body."
You: "What crisis? How did it happen? How long is a day on Red Star?"
"Xi Shuang paused, and you placed the small, mysterious hammer on her head before she continued speaking."
"You saw those monsters down there too. The strange thing here is a bit unusual; it contaminates living things through ground radiation."
"Moreover, the Crimson Star didn't descend from the heavens; we're already in a strange world, a place different from yours. Here, a day is 48 hours, 48 minutes, and 48 seconds long, transitioning directly from polar day to polar night."
"The polar day suddenly transitions into the polar night; is this some kind of eerie world, significantly different from the eerie dungeon of Doomsday Manor?"
"Or is it that the dungeon world is a replica of the dungeon world, and this planet is a mirror image of that world? Does every bizarre dungeon the Chosen Ones visit originate from this planet? Does everything actually happen on this planet?"
"Furthermore, as the Crimson Star of the Mirror World, why are the people here able to travel to the replicated world?"
"This information must have shocked you, even though it's just your own analysis and speculation."
You: "A planet in a bizarre world needs help to defeat the monsters. Would anyone believe that?"
"This bizarre world is full of rules, so why didn't I trigger them?"
"You didn't reveal what you were thinking, but asked some other questions."
Xi Shuang: "Um, I don't know why you didn't trigger the rules. Maybe that's why Dong Zhen chose you."
"Chosen by me? I was the one who asked for the information, not Dongzhen who told me. How could I have fallen for Dongzhen's trap?"
"Or are they people from other planets who don't have to follow the rules? But that doesn't make sense either."
"Does Dongzhen need to follow the rules on the planet I came from?" you asked again.
Xi Shuang hesitated for a moment, then replied, "It seems... we don't need it? I don't know."
"you:......"
"What a convenient excuse for being clueless! If Xi Shuang isn't lying, I really don't know how these people have survived in this bizarre world."
"Judging from her appearance, she doesn't seem to be lying, but then you think of the containment host in the first instance. That person gave you experience, so don't trust anyone too easily."
"However, the rules governing the arrival of the bizarre world are difficult to fathom, and this is beyond your scope of investigation; those are matters for the experts to handle."
"This trip wasn't a complete loss; at least I gained some information. I wonder if I could get a reward from the system if I tried to do the same thing in real life."
"You haven't received a reward for discovering a hidden clue in a long time; you've almost forgotten what that feels like."
"The last time the reward mechanism was triggered was because I obtained the Blood Eye of the Mysterious Creature from the achievement."
"But you shouldn't talk to idiots too much, or you'll become an idiot yourself."
"You're not planning to waste any more time here."
"You don't necessarily have to stay for 48 hours and be forcibly deported; you can just teleport back yourself."
"That Dongzhen seems much smarter. We can just grab him and question him later."
"Only the referrer can change the information on the trading planet, but I don't know if that's true. How can I become a referrer?"
You turned your gaze to Xi Shuang, whom you were choking, and said, "How about I teleport you to sell meat with Dong Zhen every day?"
"Seeing that person's face turn red and their neck bulge from being choked by you, almost unable to breathe and about to die, you loosened your grip slightly."
"This is my first time coming to your site through the trading network. Can I be your referrer? After I become a referrer, can I remove myself from the referrer list?"
Xi Shuang coughed twice, panting heavily, and said, "It's possible, but can I not go?"
You: "No."
"The next moment, you put away the little demon hammer and reached behind your ear with one hand."
Three seconds later, a semi-transparent panel appeared in front of us.
"You haven't used the panel properly yet, so you're not very familiar with it."
"However, this operation can be done by following the written instructions."
"The panel has two options: Trade and Teleport. You have chosen Trade."
"There are many functional options within the trading platform."
"Homepage, Referrer, My Transactions"
"In my transactions, you found the 'Alien Trade Location Selection' option, which includes the confirmation of the trading planet."
"You tried to change the trading planet, but as the Crimson Star people said, you cannot change it yourself; it shows that you do not have the permission to change it."
"You clicked on the referrer again. There are three options: bind to another alien, sever relationship, and my referrer."
"You have bound Xi Shuang's name to the alien beings."
"Just like Dongzhen did back then, grab Xi Shuang's hand and make him bite his finger and let it bleed."
"After the binding was successful, you clicked on my referrer again and terminated your relationship with Dongzhen."
"Whether Dongzhen was behind it or not, and it was truly necessary to have an introducer to change the trading planet, now that the binding has been severed, we won't be subject to his control anymore."
"Next, press behind Xi Shuang's ears so she can teleport like you."
"In the blink of an eye, you and Xi Shuang returned to the Doomsday Manor."
"Because of cooking, Wen Jiu has been replaced by Qi Jia waiting for you outside the manor gate."
"Upon seeing Qi Jia, you handed Xi Shuang over to him to control, while you opened the panel and tried to change the trading planet."
"He also ordered Qi Jia to open Xi Shuang's panel and see if he could change the trading planet in 'My Transactions'."
The answer I received was yes.
"You must have missed something. You can't see the panel at the beginning of Dongzhen's operation, which is why the result is different."
"However, it's difficult to pinpoint exactly which step you missed."
"In that process of binding the alien, you confirmed that every step was correct."
"You've tried it again, and you've now severed ties with your referrer; you've become the referrer yourself."
"Just as you guessed, it can be replaced."
"But now that we've cracked Dongzhen's trap, we need to find a way to force him to reveal how he did it."
"You have finished the simulation."
"Simulation complete! Current anomaly value: 90 points. Simulation duration: 30 minutes and 2 seconds."
How come it's only been half an hour? Wen Qi wondered.
Then I glanced to the side, and my younger brother was still there.
"Could it be because the flow of time is different over there?"
Hearing Wen Qi's soft murmur, Wen Jiu asked with concern, "Sister, what's wrong?"
"Try changing the trading planet in your panel," Wen Qi reminded her.
Wen Jiu didn't say anything and followed her sister's instructions. The result was the same as before for Wen Qi: no permission to change permissions.
It seems I should bring Xiao Jiu along too, Wen Qi thought expressionlessly.
"Let's go inside first. After we've taken care of the guests, I have something to tell you," Wen Qi said.
Wenjiu carried the box, and the two entered the manor.
Upon arriving in the kitchen, Wenjiu continued preparing breakfast, Qi Jia helped wash the vegetables, and Guilian carried the plates.
Wen Qi, on the other hand, seized the time to cultivate.
Breakfast was ready in no time.
While entertaining their guests, Wen Qi and her companion also ate.
This morning I collected mostly crystal cores, quite a lot.
If the crystal cores weren't too small, Wen Qi would have liked to put them into the strange object "Replicable Empty Bottle".
Unfortunately, the bottle opening is only the size of a thumb, and even a coin-sized piece cannot be inserted.
Unless the crystal core is shattered, but the crystal core is not so easy to shatter. Even if it is shattered, can it still be absorbed? Will it damage the crystal structure or something? Wen Qi dared not take the risk.
......
Dragon Kingdom Live Stream Room:
"Wenjiu received a lot of crystal cores. Do you think the siblings will bring them back?"
"Are you dreaming? Expecting your chosen ones to bring back something this good for you to use? Don't even think about it, it's impossible! You're dreaming!"
"Exactly, who would be willing to give away something so good so selflessly?"
"And fruit, I have no idea how much Wen Qi has hoarded."
"They're not in a hurry to come back, is it because they want to use up all their stuff there before returning?"
"What the person upstairs said makes sense."
"......"
Do you even have a heart?
"How can you say they're heartless? It's precisely because we're heartless that we think they're heartless, that we want to take all those things for ourselves."
"Even the national leaders haven't given any orders to ask Wen Qi and the others to bring back the things they used to cultivate superpowers, so why are you all in such a hurry? There's a limit to how much you should be envious."
"That's right, whether some people can activate their supernatural abilities is another matter!"
"Oh my, you're not jealous? You're so high and mighty. I don't believe you don't want the crystal cores, those fruits and vegetables, and the superpowers."
"#%*&……*（*（&"
The chat was in an uproar, and the Loongson base ultimately decided to ban the live stream.
Then play the prepared script on a loop:
"Official announcement: In the next bizarre instance, excluding the random selection of Wen Qi and Wen Jiu, we will try our best to let other citizens experience the rules and strange tales of the bizarre world. Since everyone loves the motherland so much and is willing to contribute to the country."
Currently, the Dragon Kingdom's national fortune value will surpass the normal value of one hundred once Wen Qi returns. Even if they fail at that point, there's no need to worry about any strange rewards. However, if anyone who goes there brings shame to the Dragon Kingdom, they will be dealt with according to military law.
Once the higher-ups spoke up, coupled with the ban, the live stream immediately became harmonious.
Regardless of whether those who attacked Wen Qi were from China or were impersonating people from other countries, it was an offense to Wen Qi and her brother, and it was very disheartening.
If there were no other way, and for the overall interests of the country, how could they bear to send a child who had just come of age to the eerie world three times?
Everyone has only one life. Even if Wen Qi draws a talent ability, that is her ability.
Instead of being grateful, the public is launching malicious personal attacks, which is even more hateful than the school violence Wen Qi experienced in the second instance.
......
While the live stream was filled with verbal abuse, Wen Qi calmly continued her cultivation.
The other guests were also quietly cultivating. Everyone knew that their strength was also low, and as the forbidden land expanded, it would be even harder for them to survive.
However, there are three exceptions.
While Wen Qi and the others were cultivating, the three of them absorbed and refined the essence for a short period of time before going out.
The three headed straight for the fruit and vegetable garden.
At this time, the fruit and vegetable garden is not open to the public.
But they are prepared to use other methods.
