Taixu, Endless Jizo Blade
"I know you want to deal with her, but the problem is that you only think about rushing in without thinking about how to rush in. Even as a vengeful ghost, you are just a third-rate, useless vengeful ghost."
Although Lin Yu's attack didn't use much force, Yuno calmed down a little after being lightly tapped on the head by Lin Yu.
But now, looking at the boy in front of her, she felt that she was still a little unconvinced.
"... As a top-notch vengeful spirit, senior, could you please give me some pointers on how to proceed?"
"First of all, I'm not a vengeful ghost—don't look at me like that."
Lin Yu, who was being stared at by the two men with looks that said, "Keep fooling me," pointed to his temple and said to them.
"Don't worry about such trivial matters now. I've said it before, I'm very afraid of dying."
"So, whether it's for revenge or out of fear of death and for survival, the biggest difference between us humans and beasts is that we can learn to think before we act."
"Of course, I can understand that your thinking is not good enough. After all, I used to be a special agent and I have to deal with far more emergencies than you two."
"Yes, yes, you're so smart."
Hearing Lin Yu's lecturing words, Kiana retorted defiantly.
"So, what do you think we should do now, smart senior Lin Yu?"
"Don't worry— Yuno, can you sense the direction they're generally heading from where the tremors are coming from?"
"... It's on our side."
Upon realizing what had happened, Yuno immediately asked Lin Yu.
"According to you, senior, we are at a disadvantage in fighting them. So—should we retreat?"
"Retreat... Tch, I don't have time to waste on them any longer."
I don't know if anyone in the Nine Nether is preparing to break Chiyou's seal, but just as I was racing against time, someone came over with a mecha.
Moreover, the communication system on Schicksal side is currently being jammed, yet the enemy is still rushing towards us. This can only mean that their communication and detection systems are functioning normally.
Going back to find Fu Hua and the others now seems like a sure way to secure our position, but the problem is that by securing our position, we've wasted time.
They were forced to split up their forces because of time constraints, and now they're turning back – isn't that putting the cart before the horse?
Yes.
"Yuno, if we speed up our movement, can you still guarantee that we can continue to detect the tremors?"
"That's no problem—wait, what are you planning to do?"
Seeing Lin Yu start sprinting in the Yuno had pointed out, Yuno paused for a moment, then immediately caught up with Lin Yu.
You just told me to use my brain, but you're just making things even more reckless!
"Hey, wait for me!"
Seeing the two suddenly start running, Kiana immediately chose to chase after them.
That's strange. Didn't the senior say that our combat system, which mainly relies on [biotechnology combined with biological combat power], is at a disadvantage against the Titan Mech?
But now...
Although the senior is a vengeful ghost, it's impossible for him to suddenly have a problem with his brain.
Judging from his previous actions in Changkong City, his seemingly reckless behavior was actually the result of careful consideration... right?
Recalling the memories of falling from the TV station building, Kiana suddenly felt that she should be more careful.
Kiana judged that Lin Yu still had a brain.
However, Kiana also judged that Lin Yu, now in his "excited mode," would definitely act recklessly while still using his brain.
He's definitely confident, but what exactly will happen...?
Ugh, no, I suddenly feel a bit nauseous.
Lin Yu, who was sprinting at the front, knew that his two teammates, who had just been reassured, certainly didn't understand what he was thinking.
But only Lin Yu himself knew...
Boss, I'm doing this...
[Ha, it's nothing. Unless you're maliciously manipulating things to exploit others, this system won't care about such trivial matters.]
Oh, thank you so much.
Moreover, the fact that you've taken the initiative to step forward proves one thing.
I charged towards the Titan Mech squadron, and given that I was prepared, the fact that you still dared to show yourself, without even giving me a reward, all these factors combined are enough to explain...
—Right now, I won't face any life-or-death crises when facing those Titan Mech.
Your line of thinking is correct, but it's not entirely accurate.
[This system will distribute rewards before you encounter a survival crisis, but these survival crises do not include crises like 'suddenly encountering a murderer and stabbing you twice' or 'being suddenly killed by a dump truck while walking on the street.']
... So that means?
In other words, while low-probability events do exist, this system will not notify you or send you rewards.
Don't forget what this system has already said—ultimately, a person has to rely on themselves.
Yes, you're right.
Against those mechs, the worst that could happen is that I'd die at their hands.
But if I don't speed things up, that ten-pull will be the system's last supper for me.
So now...
"I'm going first!"
Kiana panicked when she saw that Stigmata had appeared on the back of Lin Yu's right hand and Honkai Energy patterns were rapidly appearing.
"Wait a minute, senior! If we use the Stigmata now—"
"That's still better than continuing to waste time."
Seeing Lin Yu's speed suddenly surge due to the enhancement from the Stigmata, Kiana truly felt incredibly worried about Lin Yu.
"Yuno, I'll be going now!"
"Activate the advance mode!"
"You two..."
After watching Kiana activate the thrusters of [Domain Armor: White Comet] and rush forward with Lin Yu, Yuno gritted her teeth and pressed her hand directly to the ground.
Before participating in this mission, everyone in the dormitory except Fu Hua had already put on the armor that Schicksal had prepared for them.
Because the third-generation Valkyrie armor was limited, Yuno gave the third-generation armor to others who were weaker than her, and went out wearing only a second-generation armor herself.
In terms of speed, she would normally be no match for the two ahead of her who were using Stigmata and thrusters.
In that case, Yuno's choice would naturally be—
"Get out here!"
After Yuno pressed her hand on the ground, small trees suddenly appeared in front of her.
Although these temporarily generated saplings are fragile, their toughness is up to a acceptable level as disposable moving props.
Just like when she was chasing Lin Yu and the others a month ago, Yuno directly used the vines that grew on her wrists to lash forward, and then used the momentum to swing her body toward another tree.
Using this special method, she actually caught up with the two who were sprinting wildly.
Even though the three of them had become companions, Yuno still found the scene very strange when she saw it.
Senior Lin Yu and Kiana were running ahead, and I was chasing after them like crazy...
No, something just doesn't feel right about this scene.

This is a screenshot from when the unlimited bounty was first launched. The data shows 3287 monthly tickets, 202,900 in donations, and 1019 razor blades.
This is the current data.
So, here's the data settlement for the unlimited bounty over the past few days.
Monthly pass 4512-3287=1225/80=15.3, let's say we owe 16*2K=32,000 words.
The last tip was 0.4W, plus this time 21.26 - 20.29 + 0.4 = 1.37, so the debt is 2 * 2K = 4K.
Blade 1425-1019=406, so the shortfall is 4*2K=8K.
So the amount of words owed during this period is 44,000.
From the unlimited bounty on the 28th until now, I have written a total of 47,000 words. Subtracting the 4,000 words I write every day for full attendance, that's 39,000 words.
I previously owed 30,000 words, and in the last two days I paid back 39,000 words, which means I now owe 44,000 + 30,000 - 39,000 = 35,000 words.
That concludes the settlement. Let's keep the bounty up. Anyway, I'm a greedy person; if I need money, I'll find a way to write more.
I will not be offering monthly tickets as a reward for the remaining book launches, because I will no longer be able to participate in the new book rankings after three months of writing.
One should know one's own limitations. I certainly can't compare to those big shots on the monthly ticket rankings. Offering a reward for monthly tickets would only put pressure on myself, and it's unnecessary.
Other bounty rules remain unchanged.
100 razor blades = 2000 words
10,000 cat biscuits = 2,000 words
Here you go.
The treasure chests are calculated based on 5 chapters for silver and 16 chapters for gold. Oh, remember to choose "Happy Together" so I can get the money. "Celebrating the World" doesn't count.
Also, the razor blades and cat cookies I personally tipped are not counted in the bounty. Sometimes, ranking up here requires spending money, so if I spend it myself, it won't count.
Oh, by the way, here's a special bounty.
There are rumors that Cecilia's first love was Otto, so I'm a little curious where I saw this storyline.
The conclusion of the discussion in the group was that someone had seen a scene in the game where Cecilia looked at Otto in a strange way. I'm a little curious about this, but I can't let everyone help me look for it for nothing.
If someone finds this plot and its source, add 2K*3=6K. If it's confirmed that it's not just a rumor but that Cecilia's first love was indeed Otto, then add another 2*2K=4K.
If someone finds it, they can post it in the Water Zone and then let me know in this chapter that they have posted it. I can then go to the Water Zone to see the pictures you posted. Of course, it would be even better if there were specific videos so I could see the background story.
I know this is as troublesome as finding a needle in a haystack, so if anyone knows where or where they have seen this evidence, please send it over. There's no need to go looking for it on purpose.
Let's set the reward period for this year.
Don't bother looking for comics, I've already read most of them, there really aren't any.
Chapter 105. The Void. The Endless Jizo Blade
Nine Nether. Somewhere
Roseweisse, who had entered the Nine Nether Rita step ahead of Lin Yu and the others, was currently dressed in the [Hunter's Suit - Shadow Iron] and exploring the eerie ruins deep within the Nine Nether.
Although her official mission this time was to check if Anti-Entropy was causing any trouble.
But Rita actually knew very well that Otto wanted her to come here because he was worried about something happening to K423.
As for Cocolia sending people to cause trouble...
Rita wasn't worried about this at all.
After all, despite all the trouble Cocolia has caused, as a newly appointed enforcer of Anti-Entropy, her actual foundation is just so-so.
Previously in Changkong City, Cocolia's Titan Mech was destroyed by the Far East Branch's ace Murata Himeko, with more than 90% of it taken away by a single shot.
Under these circumstances, the forces that Cocolia could actually deploy could not cause any trouble in the Nine Nether Netherworld.
Furthermore, Otto explicitly told Rita that Siegfried Kaslana was highly likely to be here.
Although Siegfried is now considered part of the Anti-Entropy camp, given the current situation, Rita thinks...
—Those in the Anti-Entropy camp, whether conservatives or radicals, probably wish Cocolia would die on the spot.
