One Hundred Ways to Die Through Creative Self-Torture / "Father's Love Is Like a Mountain"
Sun Wukong, the Victorious Battle Saint Buddha, Main God Level, completely sided with humanity during the Kunlun Demon Calamity. This was likely a trump card left behind by the Master Xuanzang, the Super God Academy, and even the Deno Galaxy.
On his journey to the West to relieve suffering, he killed countless of his own kind, and he voluntarily sealed himself in Flower Fruit Mountain for 1400 years, which is enough to prove the Great Sage's firm stance.
Given this, with the great battle imminent, Kevin should cherish his relationship with Sun Wukong even more, so that they can rely on each other and increase their chances of victory.
As for Ali, based on Sun Wukong's fragmented words, Ryze's elusive information, and his own vague memories of the future, Kevin could basically determine that the two in front of him were probably of the same race.
In other words, both the fox and the monkey were likely lucky escapees from the clutches of the Queen Mother of the West, the warden of Kunlun, and their relationship was probably quite close.
However, Ali's luck probably isn't as good as Sun Wukong's; she likely died once before because of the Tiandao Palace.
These immigrants from the Deno Galaxy possessed advanced genetic resurrection technology. As a result, while resurrecting Ali and transforming her into a second-generation God-River Warrior, they also forged a good relationship with Sun Wukong.
That's why Dukao and the monkey were so familiar with each other, and that stubborn war maniac dared to entrust the Super Xiong Bing Lian to Sun Wukong for testing.
Since that's the case, why not use this opportunity to my advantage and boost my own popularity with Ali?
Kevin stepped onto the bridge as he pondered, a slight smile playing on his lips, but his expression grew increasingly somber as he walked further in.
Now that we've finished dealing with things outside, let's settle the score! You bunch of losers who did terribly in the practical exam!
P. S.: I'll add another chapter this afternoon.
Finally, the connection between Sun Wukong's background and Journey to the Journey to the West in the Super God Academy has been made, filling in those plot holes.
In addition, the concepts of "Godlike," "Honkai," "Journey to the West," and the history of the Otto Family being used as bait finally come together.
In short, it was quite mentally taxing; maintaining logical consistency was not easy. Please forgive any minor issues.
Chapter 738, Section 772: 100 Ways to Die in Creative Self-Torture (Bonus Chapter)
As evening fell, thanks to the reversal of Kevin's Death Authority, the devastated ecosystem of Flower Fruit Mountain was recovering at a visible rate.
The two teams set up camp on the spot and prepared dinner, but even the aroma of barbecue and the variety of dishes could not offset the double blow to everyone's physical and mental health.
"You just do whatever I tell you to do? Have you lost your mind?!"
Du Qiangwei twisted Ge Xiaolun's ear and spun him around, scolding him angrily. The straight man, who hadn't fully transitioned from being a loser college student, scratched his head and chuckled dryly.
"I didn't think that much about it at the time. Rose, you're beautiful, and you're the captain. You know more than me, so I'll listen to whatever you say."
"Are you out of your mind?! Get lost!"
Ge Xiaolun, who had run right into the line of fire, was kicked out of the tent, glancing back at it a few more times before leaving.
"Sister Rose, don't be angry. Xiao Lun is interested in you..."
Rui Mengmeng, who was usually the slowest to notice, carefully approached and pointed it out with a grin.
Du Qiangwei pinched her best friend's cheeks, pulling them slightly from side to side, her raised eyebrows and cold smile exuding a domineering aura, her eyes filled with contempt.
"Tch, if you can see that, how could I not understand it?"
"On the battlefield, instead of thinking about saving his own life, he can't even tell the difference between a good and a bad word. Afterwards, instead of reflecting on his mistakes, he's still thinking about chasing girls and flirting with them. He deserves to be kicked to death!"
"He's 800 years too early to Sister Zhui; we'll see how he performs later."
After venting her frustrations, the female captain looked at the black electronic helmet that Rui Mengmeng was holding, her expression somewhat confused.
"Tsk, just got back from that devil's office? What mission did you get?"
"Playing games..."
Rui Mengmeng raised her helmet somewhat dejectedly and showed Du Qiangwei the new immersive device from SAO that could activate 100% of consciousness, looking a little embarrassed.
"Teacher Kevin said that if I log in using this linker, Sword Art Online will automatically generate a character level based on my current status. He requires me to complete the quest to solo 100 floors within a month..."
"The problem is, I've never played online games before, I don't even know how to log in."
At this moment, Qilin, who was also carrying a helmet, stepped forward, patted the somewhat dejected Bronya, and put her arm around her shoulder to quietly comfort her.
"What a coincidence? My mission is almost the same: to create a sniper character in ALO, participate in this competition, and aim for a top-three finish..."
"For information on game controls, you can browse strategy forums. In fact, I can teach you the very basics."
Watching her two female teammates shake hands and encourage each other so solemnly, Du Qiangwei, unable to bear it any longer, grabbed her hair and rolled her eyes.
"Sisters, it's just a game, don't make such a fuss!"
"Who's more miserable than me? That demon said he'd be fighting the three Space Herrscher around him every day from now on! You've all seen it, even the weakest one, that purple-haired little girl, is beating me to a pulp!"
Qilin shrugged, indicating that she couldn't help, but to make her good friend feel better, she pointed to the male team members who were bruised and battered and helping each other on the open ground.
"Those who had just woken up were dragged into the training room and beaten up by Instructor Kevin..."
"They'll all be under the Great Sage's command from now on. I glanced at the training schedule for the boys, and it was all weird courses like bone regeneration, lava baths, deep burial and suffocation, and extreme cold endurance..."
"To put it bluntly, that's not training, that's self-torture! Do you know 100 ways to torture yourself in creative ways? Want to try them?"
Upon hearing this, Du Qiangwei immediately shuddered, patted her chest with lingering fear, and was extremely grateful that the demon had been somewhat considerate of the female members of the Xiong Bing Lian.
Although their God Creation Project possess cutting-edge technology with the potential to surpass Earth's current civilization, their insane self-torture can indeed significantly shorten the growth cycle of the Xiong Bing Lian.
But if we're going to play like this, we might as well just die all at once.
It's foreseeable that the boys' future will be very exciting.
Driven by emotion and pity, Du Qiangwei looked at the boys squatting in front of the barbecue grill flipping over the skewers and noticed that they were obliviously trying to get close to the Great Sage Equaling Heaven behind them. She couldn't help but silently mourn for these unlucky guys.
Think of the Judgment Angel whose bones turned to ash and who died and came back to life; think of the Monkey King who was forged into an indestructible body and sealed himself away for 1400 years.
These two are both top-notch ruthless individuals. Their so-called "training" involves grinding their bones to dust, which is considered normal for them.
So, farewell, comrades...
In the open space, Liu Chuang, dressed in a plaid shirt and with a cigarette tucked behind his right ear, skillfully applied oil and sauce. Although his cheeks were a little swollen, he looked quite content.
"Great Sage, give me a few skewers of mutton first, and I'll get you some kidneys, chicken gizzards, and other things later. I guarantee they'll be very flavorful!"
Sun Wukong stared at the juicy, red, and spicy meat skewers on the tray, his tone hardening.
"I appreciate your kind words, Old Sun, am a vegetarian..."
"Eating vegetarian is good, eating vegetarian is good, I'll just make some corn, mushrooms, chives, and stuff..."
Liu Chuang hurriedly wiped his hands on his apron, then turned around somewhat obsequiously to prepare some lightly flavored barbecue.
Although he encountered a setback, the gangster, well aware of his criminal background, was even more motivated to work harder. After all, what's the point of bullying ordinary people when there's nothing as satisfying as fighting alongside these big shots?
When will they start causing havoc in Heaven? I'll follow them from the South Heavenly Gate all the way to the Lingxiao Palace. Just thinking about it is thrilling!
Sun Wukong recalled Liu Chuang's courage to charge into battle at the first moment, and his Fiery Golden Eyes confirmed that this gangster was indeed reforming. His malice subsided slightly, and he temporarily accepted the group of male team members.
As the Victorious Fighting Buddha considered whether to discuss the next training content with his students, Ali, who had been searching for him in the distance, spotted Sun Wukong and happily waved and ran towards him.
The usually calm and dignified Sun Wukong's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he subconsciously vanished from his spot with a movement technique.
Only four soldiers from the Xiong Bing Lian, who had been thoroughly beaten by the two bosses, were left squatting on the ground eating barbecue and drinking beer, celebrating their miraculous survival, completely unaware of the impending doom.
While the members of the Xiong Bing Lian mostly suffered physical punishment, the Fire Moth suffered severe psychological trauma.
After the assessment results came out, Kiana, who suffered the most, was strapped to a chair and forced to attend ten hours of intensive strategy and tactics lessons, during which she was not allowed to blink.
For the energetic Kiana, this was nothing short of the cruelest form of mental pollution.
When the white-haired Paramecium emerged, its limbs trembled, and it had a nauseous reaction to the sight of the substitute teacher Jagustin. Moreover, upon hearing that there would be daily class reservations, Kiana almost fainted from excitement.
However, K423 and Sirin's barely passing grades left Kevin with no reason to criticize them, so he could only hint to Mei to supervise them more closely and beat them severely if they disobeyed.
Bella, who enrolled later, unfortunately became Kiana's cellmate and had to stay in a special study room, overwhelmed by all kinds of materials and videos, and could no longer enjoy the good time of slacking off and sleeping every day.
However, as soon as Kiana regained her footing, she impatiently snatched the tablet computer from Raiden Mei and eagerly swiped Siegfried's communication channel with her claws.
"You stinky old man, I've finished copying my homework, quick, quick, quick! 1000 times! I'll supervise you!"
Eager to vent her frustrations and find some relief, Kiana casually tossed Kevin's corrected homework onto Siegfried's keyboard via teleportation, causing her "father's" team battle to collapse.
"Yes, we also need to buy durians. We have to finish copying them within two days! It's what Teacher Kevin asked for!"
The white-haired Paramecium grinned smugly, its heterochromatic eyes gleaming with anticipation, before delivering the most vicious blow.
P. S.: The next chapter will feature a touching father-daughter relationship; you know what I mean.
Thank you so much to all the readers for your recent support with your love, recommendations, and monthly tickets! I won't list them all, but here's a link to three updates every day from Tuesday to Sunday this week!
If it cannot be completed on the same day, it will be made up by the end of this month!
Chapter 739, Section 773: "Father's love is like a mountain"
If you were to ask someone how they feel about raising a daughter, the answer would be regret, extreme regret.
They said it was easy to raise, even simpler than raising a dog, but now it's turned out to be a terrible, low-quality, black-hearted cotton product!
With a bruised and swollen face, Siegfried knelt on a durian shell, gasping for breath, while hunched over a small stool, gritting his teeth as he copied another assignment.
"You stupid old man, you copied it wrong again! That's R, rewrite it! You're so dumb!"
Kiana, who had just emerged from the Spatial Rift, was lounging in a chair, playing video games and eating durian, looking quite content.
After noticing some minor errors in Siegfried's work, the filial daughter, the white-haired Paramecium, pointed them out without hesitation.
This correction of her father's flawed vanity gave Kiana a sense of intellectual superiority.
"You brat, couldn't you at least copy it neatly? You've made so many mistakes, it's a disgrace!"
Siegfried looked bitter and furious, and was about to get up to talk to his daughter about "Father's love is like a mountain" when the sword intent that tore through space above his head made him immediately kneel down and obediently copy it again on a different piece of paper.
"And you're one to talk! How could you copy even the parts I wrote correctly, and the result is wrong too..."
"You old rascal, put your heart into it!"
The good daughter who was in charge of supervising Siegfried saw this and her expression turned fierce, full of disgust. The person being despised felt his heart clench and bleed with Affliction.
At this moment, Kevin, who had been watching the entire scene of the father-daughter harmony from the Hyperion, curled his lip and finally realized Siegfried's true colors.
This is a kid who ran away from home and wandered around for years after watching mecha anime when he was a teenager. In other words, he didn't even finish his basic education! He's a troubled teenager who dropped out of school halfway through his education!
Even if she enriches herself with experiences and observations along the way, there's no doubt that Kiana's academic underachiever status is inherited from Siegfried himself!
He and Mei shouldn't take the blame for this!
At this moment, Kevin gently took the hand that was resting on his shoulder into his palm, and exchanged a glance with Raiden Mei behind him. The two of them could hardly bear to look at the chaotic scene in Kaslana Castle.
"Are you sure those two troublemakers are really our descendants? Have their genes been contaminated by some kind of brain-degrading substance?"
"1000 times is not enough..."
The two fell into a brief silence. Faced with the failure of their unworthy offspring, they deeply felt the lack of proper education and the consequences of turning a blind eye to the rampant spread of a bad family tradition.
"Like father, like son. The root of the problem Siegfried with that old slacker Siegfried. From now on, every question Kiana gets wrong will have him copy it ten times over, and then explain it to his daughter again!"
"Aren't you free? Perfect opportunity to help him quit his internet addiction..."
"I guarantee that within half a month, one of them will..."
Kevin took the black tea that Mei had brewed, took a small sip, smiled with narrowed eyes, and suppressed the rest of his words.
"Will there be progress?"
Raiden Mei subconsciously added, her tense expression easing somewhat.
As her memories from the previous generation are reinforced, the minds of her two academic geniuses are merging, and as the descendant of both of them, Mei, who shares the same bloodline with the Kaslana Family, must also face everything squarely.
"No..."
Kevin raised his right index finger and wiggled it slightly from side to side, his voice gradually turning cold.
"One of them... will go crazy first!"
Then, the man took a sip of tea, his expression strange and sinister.
"Why do you think this girl is working so hard? First, it's like a holiday for her to play; second, the more Siegfried completes his copying, the more I'll 'reduce' Kiana's workload, it's all about character education..."
"But on the other hand, do you think Siegfried would pay more 'attention' to his beloved daughter's education?"
"After all, the more mistakes Kiana makes, the more he, as her father, bears joint responsibility, and the less time he has to play games and slack off."
At that moment, Raiden Mei immediately understood the hidden meaning in Kevin's words, which, to put it bluntly, was to make the father and daughter restrain and harm each other.
Regardless of who gives up first, in the end, these two ancestors will be able to teach their descendants a lesson and urge them to take their studies seriously.
