Chapter 123

Then I got a job.

Then suddenly everything started to go smoothly.

Li Pu now doesn't think of this as something like "When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person, it will first test their will, strain their muscles and bones, starve their body, and leave them destitute."

There must be some mastermind behind this!

In an industrial society, as long as you're not overly ambitious, arrogant, or incompetent, you can find a job.

The number of unemployed people in the past three years is not a normal phenomenon!

Li Pu's problem wasn't because he wasn't working.

It's a cycle of repeated failures and attempts, only to fail again and again!

This is extremely abnormal!

Now, let's put aside the system for now and talk about the Sword in the Stone!

Li Pu had received the message earlier, but not from SU. SU only said it was difficult, without giving any hints. He later found it while Raven was browsing his phone.

At first, Li Pu thought it was just a prank or something.

The reason that made him decide to come here.

This is the sword, isn't it...?

"Shall we pass the torch, brother?"

Looking at the sword, Li Pu really wanted to complain.

In a certain game by Emma Douyin, there's a campfire!

Except for not catching fire, it's exactly the same!

Li Pu really didn't want to complain about this issue.

This is blatant copyright infringement!

Why isn't that old scoundrel Miyazaki suing you?

Oh, by the way, Miyazaki isn't in this world.

There is no game called "Passing the Fire".

So either this is an artwork that someone has messed with, or this is the thing SU was talking about.

So how do we determine that?

Now is the time to release Rosaliya!

If Rosaliya demolished it, that's just childish behavior. I'll definitely discipline her properly. As for compensation, just ask Jackal for it.

Anyway, Jackal is from England.

But if it can't be dismantled, it's probably the real thing.

So let's get Rosaliya now!

Rosaliya didn't know what it was for, but she just thought it was fun. And she couldn't pull it out!

If she were in an orphanage, what kind of sculptures hadn't she dismantled? What kind of doors hadn't she taken down? What's a cricket sword that looks like it could be broken with a single push?

She didn't even need to use much force to pull it up.

Even if you can't pull it up, you can bend it!

However, she has now encountered something she can't take apart. No matter how hard she tries, the thing won't budge!

Even when Liliya came up to help, it was no use!

They used every ounce of strength they had.

It's useless!

Rosaliya finally gave up, and this was the first time she had felt a clear sense of defeat.

"What the hell is this thing?!" Rosaliya exclaimed. "I can't pull it out at all!"

Rosaliya chose to give up, remaining completely still.

"That seems to be correct." Li Pu stepped forward.

"What? What?" Rosaliya asked, confused. "Big brother, are you going to try drawing your sword too?"

Li Pu didn't answer Rosaliya's question; he was observing the thing himself. How to put it? This was the first time he'd seriously observed this object.

It's almost certain that this is the bonfire.

"Could it be that after igniting it... I can travel to Dark Souls?" Li Pu scoffed. "Going to Dark Souls to get Saber's weapon? Isn't that a bit too damn... illogical?"

Li Pu felt that this thing was absolutely ridiculous and very unscientific.

But it can be very time-traveling.

Anyway, this isn't exactly the authentic Honkai Impact 3rd world.

There may not be the most absurd thing, but there can be something even more absurd.

"Okay," Li Pu said, sounding like he wanted to retort, "Let's just say... let's just say that."

"By the way, are you sure you used your full strength?"

"We're giving it our all," Liliya said, "But there's absolutely no sign of it moving at all."

Completely immobile, Liliya knew her current strength. Li Pu also knew that if this were just an ordinary sculpture, it would have been torn down long ago.

"Okay." Li Pu nodded.

Let's give it a try.

Then, simply reach out and grasp the hilt of the sword.

Then, Li Pu discovered that this thing might really be the most absurd thing ever, only more absurd!

'I... will not pass on the fire!'

It's no use if you don't pass the fire on!

This is hot!

You've got it covered! No need to be modest!

It has to be passed on, whether you want to or not!

The next second, flames appeared out of thin air.

Then there was the campfire.

It's really on fire!

Chapter 150 A Secret Realm

Redhead didn't know Li Pu.

He didn't know Cecilia either.

Even after he arrived and checked the roster, he couldn't find the Valkyrie who had gone berserk after he plucked her hair! Of course, this didn't make the Redhead feel disappointed.

After all, it's quite common for the Valkyrie you've seen to be different from the Valkyrie on your ship.

The only problem is how you recruit the Valkyrie you like to your ship.

After all, that Valkyrie, though she seemed to have a bad temper, was extremely powerful.

She's most likely a top-tier Valkyrie.

Redhead had naturally asked his seniors these questions.

"If you want to draw, how do you draw, and how many rounds?" These were Redhead's three questions.

"You're overthinking it, it's impossible, you're dreaming." This is the senior's three-part denial.

In short, being assigned to the Hyperion is already considered incredibly lucky; you've already been given a top-tier Valkyrie. Are you planning to put on a "newbie got this, is it any good?" show and watch the sour grapes reaction?

Redhead had no answer and didn't have much hope for something with such an extremely low drop rate.

The real task is to maintain good relationships with the Valkyrie on the ship and act as their liaison officers.

This incident is the biggest thing I've encountered since I boarded the ship.

Redhead wasn't prepared and knew he lacked experience and ability, but he still decided to do it.

That doctor was someone I had never met.

But as long as he knows that the person is on his ship, he has the obligation and responsibility to do everything he can to rescue him.

After all, there's a saying from our predecessors.

"Not a single person can be missing from my ships!"

Even if it's just one cleaner, we can't do without them!

Redhead didn't actually know the cleaner; he just heard Siegfried say that someone seemed to be coming. Then he saw a boy leading two children to the statue.

"That's him?" Redhead frowned and said, "Are you sure? That boy with the two little brats?"

"Are you sure you're not with your own sister, your friend's sister, or someone else's sister?"

"Want to come explore the London together?"

After all, London is a fairly famous tourist city, and there are quite a few tourists visiting here. People like this are not uncommon, and now this sword is considered a tourist attraction.

There were more than just one or two people who came here.

"It should be him," Siegfried said. "It is him."

"Let's take action now!"

"No!" Redhead stopped the eager Siegfried and said into his walkie-talkie, "Don't act for now, let's observe and see what happens!"

"Why?" Siegfried asked, somewhat displeased. "Aren't we going to go now?"

"No rush," Redhead said. "We've been searching for so long, we're not in a hurry."

"And if he is the person you're talking about, are you sure the World Serpent will just let him leave like that?"

"Don't rush, take a look first."

"Now is not the best time."

Redhead wasn't just confused; after all, this kind of thing was indeed hard to believe. And if it really was the Doctor, World Serpent might not have let her leave so easily.

So if that's true, this place is likely fraught with danger.

Now is definitely not the best time to act.

Let's wait a moment and see what their purpose is in coming here!

Siegfried really wanted to try, but he stopped himself. Maybe the Redhead guy was right; he should just be patient for now. He'd already searched for so long, what's a little more time?

He stared intently at the action over there, first watching the two little girls run up and try to draw their swords.

Then it had no effect.

Li Pu then went up!

The next second something strange happened!

The bonfire, which looked like it had swords stuck in it, actually started to burn, though the flames weren't particularly strong. The sky changed color, and orange-red smog descended from above.

A door, whose contents were unknown, slowly unfolded in front of the boy.

Watching the boy walk towards what he couldn't tell what it was.

"Go!" Redhead immediately realized that it really looked like that person!

If you don't take this chance now, you might not have another one!

But his order came too late. Even though the group had rushed there with all their might, Li Pu still ended up in some unknown place.

The two girls exchanged a glance and then followed them inside.

"Wait!" Himeko sensed something was wrong and stopped Mei, Kiana, Bronya, saying, "Don't go in, be careful!"
