Brand-New Gadgets
Ian walked out, his mind sinking into the 4D Pocket space.
The three newly acquired items don't have particularly overpowered functions.
Ian was actually looking forward to drawing the [What-If Telephone Booth] or the [Lie 800] potion.
These two props, in a certain sense...
These are all powerful items at the conceptual level, possessing the ability to reverse cause and effect.
If you have these two items.
Even though using them requires a lot of Nen, it allows Ian to freely modify this world.
The only thing to worry about is... it might lead people astray.
In terms of usability, the [What-If Telephone Booth] is somewhat inferior, after all, it creates a brand new world and can only be used as a substitute.
If this tool is used indiscriminately, it can easily push people's thresholds for everything to the limit.
Since I'm dissatisfied with this world anyway, I'll just create a new one.
Once we get to that point...
Most likely... it will be very difficult to regain interest in anything.
The [Lie 800] potion is even more terrifying. It was almost considered the finale of Doraemon, a concept-level gadget left behind by Doraemon.
It further achieved the true meaning of the opposite. "Words become law."
Just like this devastated Congo city before us, with hundreds of thousands of deaths, all it takes is a moment to ponder this fact, define it as a true story, drink the potion, and then utter it.
Then everything that happens before our eyes will be like a dream or a bubble in this world.
Perhaps it's a prank or hallucination, perhaps some magical plant appeared and took root, reviving everyone, or perhaps aliens descended and made this wish.
In short, the world will always find a way to distort and change the outcome that has already occurred.
"Sigh, what a pity, I wasn't so lucky..."
As Ian walked along the road, he couldn't help but sigh for the people who had died in the Congo Republic.
If he had drawn either of these two items, he would have been willing to help them be resurrected, but fate did not give them the chance.
"What's wrong, Ian?"
Machi noticed Ian's soft sigh and asked in confusion.
Ian smiled and shook his head.
"It's nothing, Machi, just reflecting on fate."
After saying that, he took out a prop from his pocket, which transformed in the wind and quickly became a Mirror.
"This is?"
Machi looked closely, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
She knew, of course, that Ian would receive new items during this time; each of Ian's items was like a gift from the Gods.
If used properly, it can even influence every aspect of the world, and even overthrow the rule of a country can be easily accomplished.
This was a consensus reached by her, Uvogin Nobunaga, and others.
"Machi, keep this item with you..."
Ian spoke softly.
The prop in front of us is called the [In-and-Out Mirror].
In terms of its functions, it can be described as an infinitely advanced version of Knov's [Hide and Seek].
Aside from having little lethality, it is remarkably flexible and exceptionally safe in terms of security.
Even upon reaching the Dark Continent, Ian could say that with this item, he could move as if he were in an empty field.
It truly is a "no man's land".
Simply place Mirror in one spot, and you can enter a Mirror world that is exactly the same as the real world, only completely upside down.
Of course, no living beings existed in that world.
In the mirror world, simply moving the Mirror closes the entrance and exit.
It can be said that, apart from the props in Ian's hands...
It is absolutely impossible for anyone else to enter the mirror world.
However, it's important to note that the [Anywhere Door] cannot be used in the Mirror World.
After briefly explaining the [In-and-Out Mirror] function to Machi,
Machi wanted to refuse.
It wasn't that she refused the item because it was too valuable, but rather that she felt Ian should keep it for himself to make it as effective as possible.
Regardless, she least wanted anything to happen to Ian's safety.
Seeing the little girl's unusually tense face, insisting on not accepting it and looking unwilling, Ian gently flicked her forehead and smiled.
"What are you thinking, Machi? Don't worry, I can recreate this item whenever I want to use it."
"Besides, I have plenty of life-saving items on hand, so there's no need to worry about me encountering any unexpected situations."
"On the contrary, your safety is my biggest concern right now. Only when I'm sure you're safe can I proceed with my plans."
Only after Ian's persuasion did Machi agree to accept the prop.
Ian nodded in satisfaction, then raised his hand again and summoned another item from his 4D Pocket.
It's a robot that looks like a doll, but it also comes with many cards covered in writing.
Machi hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously.
"Ian, what's this? It looks a bit like the Trip Expert..."
Ian picked up the robot doll, shook it, and gently shook his head.
"Although it belongs to the same robotic doll series, this guy is used differently from the Trip Expert. As for its function, Machi, I'll keep you in suspense for now. After we solve the citizens' food problem, we'll all witness a magical scene together."
Ian winked at Machi and smiled.
"I think its capabilities will surprise many people..."
Machi was taken aback by Ian's words.
After all, although Ian possesses many amazing items, the number of items Ian truly admires is small, and the abilities displayed by each item are astonishing.
This piqued Machi's interest as well.
In no Kung Fu Hustle at all.
Ian and Machi arrived at the edge of Ejin City, where it borders the Congo city.
The two cities are still quite distinct, with obvious differences.
On one side, there is a peaceful and leisurely urban landscape, with pedestrians walking unhurriedly. Whether they are office workers or business people, everyone on the street has a satisfied and happy smile on their face.
On the other side, the city resembled a post-war city devastated by bombing and air raids, a scene of utter devastation.
The city's once towering buildings are now riddled with holes, their surfaces gray, and densely packed, weak, and pale people gather in the streets, following the instructions of the organizers arranged by Xiupa.
Upon seeing Ian and Machi's arrival.
Xia, Kazan, and others also arrived, bringing with them a large number of government officials from Ejin City, who were responsible for organizing the Congo survivors to line up for food.
At the same time, they also brought out several kinds of food that Ian had arranged for them to prepare, which were easy to chew and eat quickly.
After organizing the survivors, Xiupa also came to Ian's side.
Then he saw what Ian did.
Ian held up a brown bottle and dripped a few drops onto the prepared food. The next moment, he instructed everyone to start distributing the food to the Congo survivors.
The municipal staff who were dispatched found the order somewhat absurd.
After all...
The food laid out in front of them was only a few items, but they were facing hundreds of thousands of mouths to feed, so this amount of food was far from enough.
However... it seems Ian had already factored in the reaction time of the other party's suspicions.
When they arrived at Ian's side.
About ten minutes had passed, and the food had been divided into nearly twenty portions.
Although the number was still very small, the incredible phenomenon of it multiplying out of thin air astonished all the ordinary people present.
They could not comprehend what they were seeing with their own eyes.
Then, by the time they were ready to begin their operation, the food had multiplied into more than a hundred portions.
Before the food could even reach the Congo survivors, there were already more than four hundred portions. This bizarre scene left everyone speechless.
