Lu Yibei tilted her head, looked at Chatterbox Girl, and voiced the confusion in her heart.
"If I wanted to steal kills, would I need to wait until now?" Chatterbox Girl crossed her arms over her chest, rolled her eyes, and said, "When I was getting beaten up before, you called me sweetie, but now that your wings have grown hard and you don't need me anymore, you say I'm here to steal kills. That's so mean, so..."
"Alright, alright, stop acting!" Lu Yibei waved her hand to interrupt, "Just get to the point!"
I know you well enough; there's no need for this!
"Tsk!" Chatterbox Girl spat in disappointment, pouting, "Actually, I didn't just pop out on my own. I sensed a certain aura and wanted to remind you."
It was a familiar, nauseating smell like burning garbage.
"Remind me? Remind me of what?" Lu Yibei asked, confused.
"To remind you that the guy who just died had little effect on the Pink Fluffy Rabbit, but his actions left behind a huge Disaster," Chatterbox Girl said.
"Disaster? How so?"
"..." After a few seconds of thought, Chatterbox Girl's expression suddenly turned serious, and she said in a heavy tone, "The Pink Fluffy Rabbit has been awakened..."
----
That night, within the Bamboo Scroll Illusion.
Under the cover of night, the undulating mountains outlined dark silhouettes, and gray-white mist drifted through the mountains. Giant mushrooms emitting faint blue or eerie green bioluminescence covered the ground, illuminating the mountain forests.
Intermittent bursts of silver-bell-like laughter echoed through the mountain forests, as if haunted.
That small, black, ugly fish, resembling an anglerfish, curled up and perched on a prominent rock, looking up at the semi-transparent space above, showing a rare expression of leisure.
After nearly a month of relentless effort by the system, the development of the Six-Winged Chicken Wing Pig was finally successful!
Looking around, surrounded by towering trees, over a dozen plump, round, adorable fat pigs flapped three pairs of black wings with a wingspan exceeding three meters, swiftly circling among the dark branches of the trees.
Gu Qianqian rode on the back of the leading one, a spotted pig that seemed to be the leader, laughing happily.
Alright, this can't really be called a chicken wing pig anymore, but whose fault is it that Gu Qianqian's request was so outrageous? the system thought to itself.
In fact, its research and development work on the chicken wing pig had stalled half a month ago.
It wasn't until a few days ago, after spending a fortune to acquire half a special urban legend remains, extracting its faint Power, and supplying it to the Invasion Beast flesh and blood replication process, with some adjustments, that it finally achieved success.
It was a urban legend originating from French folklore, a wild boar covered in black feathers. Gu Qianqian searched the entire Hua City Ghost Market and finally found this bottom-of-the-box item in an inconspicuous small shop. Even the shop owner didn't know the specific name of this urban legend.
A moment later, Gu Qianqian, riding the Six-Winged Spotted Pig, landed beside the system, pouted, and said, "System, I'm thinking of changing my mind. Can we not eat them?"
As she spoke, she turned to look at the Six-Winged Spotted Pig beside her, and upon seeing its plump, delicious-looking streaky pork, she couldn't help but make a slurping sound and swallow.
Heh, she says no, but her body is as honest as ever... The system sneered inwardly and said calmly, "That won't do. Your willpower is ridiculously poor; you'll change your mind every few days again."
"I think it's better to slaughter them early and distribute them to the villagers to try the taste."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Spotted Pig beside her was so frightened that its eyes widened, and it retreated repeatedly.
It was clear that it understood the meaning of those words.
"No, no!" Gu Qianqian quickly pulled the Spotted Pig beside her into her arms, her face anxious, "This time is different, I will raise them well!"
Heh, she took the bait! the system thought gleefully, saying lightly, "Alright, then it depends on your performance!"
In fact, the moment these Six-Winged Pigs were born, the system discovered that they had extraordinary talents. If they grew up, they could reach at least the level of D+ to C- grade urban legend. They were more suitable as means of transportation than as food ingredients.
"..."
Although it couldn't provide sufficient meat for the dependents in the illusion, just as taming horses was a big step in the progress of civilization, providing them with efficient means of transportation could also enhance Gu Qianqian's Spirit Mark.
During this time, the accumulation of faith power was also almost complete; it only needed to collect enough materials and a special opportunity to help Gu Qianqian advance...
If one day Gu Qianqian advanced to the Calamity level, and her power fed back to her dependents, she might be able to organize a cavalry force with considerable combat power using these Six-Winged Pigs! the system thought with surging excitement.
Since Disaster gained so many dependents through the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, Gu Qianqian must also have a force capable of confronting her.
Although saving the world by riding pigs is somewhat strange, who says a savior must have maximum style points?
"Eh—! This is bad, system! Something big has happened!"
The system was immersed in its beautiful future blueprint when Gu Qianqian suddenly exclaimed, interrupting its thoughts.
"What is it now? Don't be so jumpy!"
"There, there's a legendary mission that's turned red!" Gu Qianqian said.
"Huh?" The system was stunned for a moment, quickly checked the mission list, and then couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap! Yang Nie?!"
【Legendary Mission III: The Waking Hour, Ominous Misfortune and Yang Nie
Mission Description: Neither life nor death.
It knows everything, because it covets.
Material desires engulf people like a mire.
It awakens from that muddy, bottomless abyss.
Mission Content: Yang Nie has been stimulated by an unknown force and entered a semi-awake state. Please quickly find a way to make it fall asleep again.
Countdown: 46:58:23】
The countdown ticked away second by second, and the system was burning with anxiety.
When it learned that Disaster had appeared near Da Chunyang Palace, it had a faint sense of unease, worried that Disaster would cause a major incident.
However, what it completely unexpected was that Disaster had actually awakened Yang Nie ahead of time.
Although it was only in a semi-awake state, lasting less than two days, S-class entities are called Calamities precisely because they possess power equivalent to, or even more terrifying than, a Calamity.
In fact, the reason Yang Nie could cause immense destruction the moment it awakened was precisely because it had experienced many semi-awake states, lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes, before fully awakening.
In that semi-awake state, like the proliferation of fungi, it scattered its "spores" from the God Kingdom across the entire world, and those who sensed its "spores" would become beings similar to Secret Society members, or even like Hu Chuan, who acted as proxies for its Power.
The system dared not imagine the extent of the destruction that would be caused and how many Yang Nie believers would be born if such power ran rampant for over forty hours.
Yang Nie's waking temper is terrifying!
"..."
This shouldn't be happening! Why is this happening?
Disaster's current power is completely insufficient to confront Yang Nie. How could she be so reckless? This isn't her usual style! freeweɓnovel.cøm
What about Black Emperor? What is he doing? Didn't he notice what Disaster was doing?
The system was completely puzzled. After pondering for a moment, it looked at Gu Qianqian, and complicated emotions gradually surfaced in its small, bean-like eyes.
Friendly reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause the loss of reading progress. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in time (screenshots are recommended). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
Although there would still be a chance even if Yang Nie fully awakened, being stimulated at this time and briefly entering a semi-awake state would undoubtedly give it more believers.
This would make Gu Qianqian's mission difficulty skyrocket, in other words, making it easier for her to die!
However, looking at Gu Qianqian's face, which seemed to be smiling forever, the system couldn't bear to tell her this cruel truth...
"Gu Qianqian..."
"What is it?"
"Nothing, are you hungry?"
"Hungry... No!" Gu Qianqian's expression suddenly became alert, and she hugged the Spotted Pig beside her tightly, "Are you testing me? Hmph, don't worry, there's no way I'm eating Jinhua!"
Yes, Gu Qianqian had already named that Six-Winged Spotted Pig, Gu Jinhua, Jinhua from Jinhua ham.
Jinhua... The system was speechless for a moment. After leaving behind a steaming hot roasted pig trotters on the spot, it silently drifted away.
It needed to quietly think about how to make Gu Qianqian stronger faster.
The situation was dire, and it was a last resort.
So, after the system drifted away, Gu Qianqian grabbed the pig trotters and began to eat heartily in front of Jinhua.
Jinhua, "!!!"
----
"Holy crap! What is this? What should we do? You don't mean you want me to stop it, do you?"
After hearing Chatterbox Girl explain the whole story, Lu Yibei let out a string of exclamations.
As early as during the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, she had seen the result of letting the Plague Tai Sui's clone cause destruction for a few hours, and now that destruction was going to be magnified several times!
Just a few minutes of semi-awake state could create a menace like Hu Chuan. If this state lasted for over forty hours, wouldn't the ground be full of Yang Nie Power proxies?
Just thinking about it made Lu Yibei's head hurt.
"Don't think of yourself as too powerful, okay? Little brother!" Chatterbox Girl rolled her eyes at Lu Yibei, "That's a genuine Calamity level entity; of course, it should be dealt with by Calamity level entities!"
"That's right, I'm talking about Black Emperor and «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» the helpers he found..."
"Then what does this have to do with me?" Lu Yibei asked, confused.
Asking me to get involved in their fight is like a three-year-old running onto a 70kg freestyle wrestling ring to have fun.
One wrong move and you'll be hammered into meat paste!
"Although they are the main damage dealers this time, based on the current situation, their methods are not enough!" Chatterbox Girl shrugged, "So you have to help them..." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Help them do what? Cheer them on?" Lu Yibei blurted out.
"If it really works... Although it's a bit embarrassing, I can reluctantly put on a cheerleading uniform and dance for them."
"You can do that if necessary, but..." Chatterbox Girl changed the subject, "What I want you to do is temporarily cut off its power source and create an opportunity for Black Emperor and the others."
"What? How could I possibly do that?" Lu Yibei shook her head like a rattle-drum.
What a joke. This is like asking someone to blow up the enemy's oil refinery and power plant during wartime to cut off their energy supply. It sounds simple, but it's the deadliest job.
"It's simple, simple!" Chatterbox Girl said casually while comforting Lu Yibei, "When have I ever lied to you?"
"If it's simple, then you go!"
"Okay!" Chatterbox Girl smiled, a hint of cunning flashing in her eyes.
Lu Yibei, "???"
She agreed so readily? She doesn't even want the Dailian fee? There must be a big conspiracy here!
Compared to the invisible and intangible Pink Fluffy Rabbit, she was more afraid of Chatterbox Girl pulling some tricky moves to harm her.
With this thought, Lu Yibei quickly changed her words, "Forget it, I've thought about it, I'll go myself! So-called youth is about having a few passionate moments etched in memory. As a passionate young person like me, I won't back down."
"Tell me, what should I do?"
"Actually, it would have been somewhat difficult to pollute that guy's faith, but the situation is a bit different now, if you can ask the one you just fought with to make a move." Chatterbox Girl said the lines she had prepared long ago.
She understood Lu Yibei too well. If she agreed readily, Lu Yibei would become suspicious and then act on her own initiative.
Chatterbox Girl had no intention of doing anything in Lu Yibei's place. After all, this time, it required Qingji's sword that could briefly pause time, and then, while time was briefly paused and the connection between Yang Nie and its believers was interrupted, spread the mental imprint.
Just like spreading a virus.
However, besides stabbing the remnant soul of Qingji in the broken sword once and listening to the remnant soul of Qingji in the ruler tell a story, she had no other contact with Qingji.
In fact, the reason the remnant soul of Qingji in the ruler was willing to tell her that story was because he mistook her for Lu Yibei.
When she obtained Lingtai Pure Karma, she sensed a remnant soul hidden in the sword, and her first action was to erase the soul's consciousness...
Collecting her thoughts, Chatterbox Girl looked at Lu Yibei and said, "Do you remember the feeling of that sword strike that made you lose consciousness just now?"
"That sword..." Lu Yibei thought carefully and frowned.
Feeling? Was Chatterbox Girl referring to the feeling that when the Ancestor's sword struck, it seemed to cut off the river of time?
"Remembered?" Seeing Lu Yibei remain silent for a long time, Chatterbox Girl pouted, "It doesn't matter if you don't remember. You just need to know that if you can please him and make him strike with all his might, and then pass the mental imprint I left for you to those who have been corrupted."
The simplest way to pollute faith is to create a deviation in the object of worship for the believers.
When this deviation reaches a certain degree, it can even potentially destroy the original Power of the urban legend.
Just like the process of transformation, degeneration, and corruption of countless urban legend Powers over thousands of years.
"What's difficult about that?" Lu Yibei said confidently.
That's her own Ancestor!
Now that Hu Chuan, who controlled him, is dead, isn't it simple for me to ask him to do something? Lu Yibei thought.
"..."
You'll know when you try.
Making him strike with all his might means exhausting his Spiritual Energy, and it also means potentially losing that memory.
That's the most difficult part...
Chatterbox Girl thought, saying expressionlessly, "Good luck..."
"See you around, then?" Lu Yibei said.
"Mhm, see you around."
As her voice fell, Lu Yibei felt her body suddenly plummet, followed by her vision going black.
