Chapter 126 – Before The Clearance
“Tong”, Level 3 Researcher: “This is a great hypothesis. If we stop seeing ‘Naisser_Ren’ as a human, we would probably get an explanation if we focus on the mysterious video-filming technique of the videos that ‘Naisser_Ren’ uploads.
It was an elusive genie that was most likely to be a fairy or mountain spirit. For sure, he wasn’t an immovable earth spirit. It had near-natural hiding and latent capabilities which allowed it to be invisible.
At the same time, it is most likely a monster who had lived for more than 2,000 years. Hence, it knew of the Ren Family’s Practitioner History. As for “Over My Dead Body”, it was just an audio in its memory.
Although it is still impossible to explain how “Over My Dead Body” was made, at least it can explain the source of ‘Naisser_Ren’.
Due to the fact that the past was really an era when the spirit veins were suppressed many times, there shouldn’t have been any practitioners who have survived. Instead, there should only be non-human spirits.
Therefore, I think ‘Naisser_Ren’ is likely to be a huge organization. The main source of information is the old genie!
One of Naisser_Ren’s purposes could be to guide the nation to place emphasis on spirits and introduce the “Elven Protection Law” to protect the spirits and elves through ‘Over My Dead Body’.”
Ren Suo himself actually believed the inference and conjecture, which garnered 699 likes. Other answers were similar to this one and some thought that ‘Naisser_Ren’ was not necessarily a spooky genie, but an old one that could be a member of an organization.
Ren Suo closed that post and found that there were many other weird discussion posts in the forum besides the one about Naisser_Ren.
“A mirror that can’t reflect humans once midnight strikes.”
“Fruit Knife That Will Definitely Cut Your Fingers”
“The Quilt That Will Never Be Opened”
Why do these look like spiritual objects with some magical attributes…
The first one is absolutely shocking and the second one seems lethal too. If the third one is an energy producer, it would probably be sold out like hotcakes…
There were also some discussion posts about demons and ghosts. Apart from those Ren Suo had added to the game, there were also some “modern demons and ghosts” found all around in Xuan Nation.
“Jade Girl at the Crossroads” would be an example. There had been traffic accidents occurring at a crossroad in the Northern city area, for several consecutive days. The Bureau of Strategizing discovered a jade pendant in a pothole, in which a female ghost was hidden. The female ghost was the first female college student who was killed by a drunk driver in a traffic accident. When she was knocked over, her jade pendant was ripped off her neck and landed on the road. Somehow, she turned into a ghost and hid in the jade pendant. All of the drunk drivers, who drove past the crossroads were affected and thus, making them more likely to get into accidents …
There were also the “Overworked Ghost Staff” and “Spirit of Abused Cat”, both of which were modern ghost species that have never appeared in Ren Suo’s “Over My Dead Body” game before. The people that existed during the Three Kingdoms era had never abused cats and would merely cook them after killing any cat that they see.
“This world is beginning to lose its peace…” Ren Suo sighed and continued, “Now the nation has announced the existence of the Extraordinaires. Well, at least, ordinary people will be aware that the country has developed countermeasures and was actively responding instead of covering up the truth. That also gives the public a chance to gain Extraordinary abilities. ”
Concealing was proof of one’s lack of confidence. Xuan Nation has been quite successful in the research of Reiki and technology—well, at least, in Ren Suo’s opinion.
Magic Net Council, Cultivators academies and Civil Servant Practitioners for emergency training… Xuan Nation had the confidence to prove that the government can protect civilians during mysterious incidents, and make up for the shortcomings of the old, secret search system by making use of the advantage of the masses to obtain more information.
After receiving firsthand information about fantasy from the online discussion forums, Ren Suo made a phone call home to tell his family to be careful and not go out unnecessarily. He then went to bed and fell asleep.
Even Zhao Huo was alarmed by the fact that Ren Suo had treated Dong Chengling to a meal for the past two days. “Even if you’re wooing her, you don’t have to treat her to meals and eat with her every day,” he remarked.
Ren Suo glanced at him in disdain and retorted, “What do you know? A meal is only considered a great one when you dine together.”
Zhao Huo touched his earring and said, “If it weren’t because my girlfriend isn’t here…”
Ren Suo didn’t have a choice since he couldn’t tell Zhao Huo of his ultimate agenda behind his decision to treat Dong Chengling to meals, and that is to have a proper supper with her one night. Most people would simply keep their guard up and find it suspicious.
However, Dong Chengling was not affected at all, and instead, she naturally finished all of the food that Ren Suo gave her. Trying to sound her out, Ren Suo asked if she would be giving him a treat someday too, to which she answered, after a long time, by handing Ren Suo half of the bun that she was holding onto. After giving it some thought, she proceeded to give him the other half of the bun which she had already taken a bite out of…
It was all worthwhile since he was doing it in order to observe scientific experiments and obtain keys. That was the only way Ren Suo can comfort himself anyway.
The game finally passed the 24-hour mark after Ren Suo spent the day killing time. The Sakura Spiritual Treasure had been activated!
[You have activated Sakura Spiritual Treasure.]
[Sakura Spiritual Vein Level +1.]
[Slight increase in Reiki.]
[Because of the activation of the spiritual treasures of the Xuan Nation, the United Kingdom, and Japan, the other nine spiritual treasures on earth will also automatically activate within 30 days.]
[You get 5 evolutions.]
[You got an ace evolution!]
In the image displayed on the screen, Nine-tailed Fox’s Tokyo Sky Tree was compressed into a painting and blended into the back of a card with red edges and white backs.
[You have obtained the Crimson Trump card: Skeleton Warrior.]
Ren Suo immediately got Nine-tailed Fox to create create a glow for the little blue cat, Xiao Lan, after which he turned on the “Knight’s Wind”, leaving the Xiao Lan silently and the Sky Tree.
At this time, the sky tree has turned into a beam of light which changed from white to red. Even during the day, it still emitted red stars that were visible to the naked eye. The countless civilians who were surrounding the tree and watching everything almost screamed in excitement.
Although the people outside the sky tree saw the glow on Xiao Lan, they still didn’t dare to enter, for fear of interrupting the ignition ceremony. The instruments and equipment they brought were all beeping loudly, seemingly detecting something.
Nine-tailed Fox brought Xiao Lan to Narita Airport, where they boarded a flight back to Xuan Nation. At this moment, Ren Suo discovered that the fast-forward function of the game was finally restored. The four-hour flight that Nine-tailed Fox boarded could be skipped and the plane was able to land directly after fast-forwarding.
It seemed that the branched storyline of the game was finally narrated after the Sakura Spiritual Treasure was activated.
After placing Xiao Lan in Huo Liang’s house quietly, Nine-tailed Fox left a note behind, indicating that Pangolin wanted Huo Liang to take care of Xiao Lan. She then left quietly.
The strength of the strongest person in the world has increased by two thousand because of the activation of the Sakura Spiritual treasure. It is now 67,950.
Nine-tailed fox had a high combat power of 7,700 points but since she was accustomed to the enchantment tactic, her aggression was naturally not that high.
Now, if Ren Suo lets Nine-tailed Fox launch the “Immortal Inheritance” and choose an evolutionary course of the combat faction, can the combat power surpass the strongest figure in the world?
However, there were still at least 18 days before the activation of all spiritual treasures. Ren Suo can wait.
With the crimson ace, Ren Suo could totally wait till the end to shift into the combat evolution system. The most appropriate thing to do now was to use the illusory trick that worked in human society.
The strength of the world’s strongest person was now increasing faster than the evolution of the “All-devouring Soul”. Once it activates a few more Spiritual Treasures, it should be able to steadily surpass the world’s strongest figure!
The efficiency of cooperating with the officials was much higher than that of being a lone ranger. The spiritual treasures and cultural relics of the Fan Ying Natio had given the “All-devouring Soul” a total of 19 evolutions!
At this rate, Ren Suo might be able to give the “All-devouring Soul” its third super evolution!
Of course, the biggest gain from Fan Ying is naturally the crimson ace, “Skeleton Warrior”!
[Skeleton Warrior: Passive evolution, the “All-devouring Soul” will gain three abilities of the Skeleton Warrior.]
[Once-in-a-lifetime Meeting: The Skeleton Warrior might meet any enemy just once in his life and the first attack on any creature will inevitably cause 450% relief damage.]
[Suspended life: Skeleton warrior, has a tough and agonizing life, and never rests. Reduce the cooldown time of all abilities by 25% (or increase the number of uses by 25%)];
[World Combat: Skeleton Warrior, still has not lost himself. Increases all attack ability damage by 30%.]
The White trump card was entirely an ace that assists attacks. It had no direct attack when used alone but when combined with the navy ace, it would become unexpectedly powerful.
At this time, news came from the pangolin, who informed that several countries had contacted the Xuan Nation and expressed their willingness to trade with the beasts of Heavenly Palace in exchange for the opportunity to ignite the spirit veins.
The game then went smoothly, unexpectedly. Ren Suo made Nine-tailed Fox evolve into other beasts and with the assistance of the negotiations, keep up with the facade of an unevolved beast. He then successfully activated two other spiritual treasures, using the reputation of Heavenly Palace. He obtained two aces and a great ton of Reiki.
Ren Suo thought that the difficulty of this game would have peaked at the beginning and become easier towards the end.
However, the success ended eight days before the activation of all of the spiritual treasures.
The reason being, one of the countries was going to dig its own grave.
