Acheron Begins Exploring the Map

"Um...

"Once the Honkai ends, is there anything Su Shang wants to do?"

Gwen didn't address this sensitive topic, instead asking questions about things from five hundred years ago to the present.

"What I want to do..."

Perhaps it's about leaving the floating island and wandering around this world five hundred years in the future?

Li Sushang wasn't one to wallow in melancholy, so she quickly shifted her attention to Gwen's problem—

"Although with you around, I quickly adapted to the modern lifestyle, but many things that modern people take for granted are still rare things to me, only existing in other people's mouths."

To find out what they really look like, and whether they're as described in the books, we'll have to see for ourselves.

"Hmm, a good idea. Theory is no substitute for practice. It's always good to travel around and see more things."

Gwen nodded, then suddenly asked—

"Do you need my help?"

"A morning's journey across the vast ocean, a evening's departure from Cangwu—it all happens in the blink of an eye."

"Does this kind of thing also need to be rushed?"

Li Sushang was taken aback when she heard Gwen's words.

"So it seems we don't need it then?"

Gwen laughed.

"No, although traveling and waiting are inevitable parts, they can be annoying at times."

Li Sushang shook her head, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked—

"If you have time then, could you come for a walk with me?"

"Of course, no problem."

Gwen turned to his side, lying on his back, looking at the female warrior lying on the rocks, her ample bosom trembling with her breath—

"Besides, to be honest, I haven't actually been to many places. So when we go on a group tour, it will be good to have someone to accompany me."

"Then it's a deal?"

Upon hearing this, Li Sushang was overjoyed.

Having just regained some strength, she propped herself up and extended her right little finger.

It's a deal.

Seeing this childish gesture, Gwen smiled and intertwined his little finger with Li Sushang's.

"Then, I'll trouble you to comb my hair for me?"

Withdrawing her hand, Gwen belatedly realized where Li Sushang Wen had been looking. Her blush deepened, and she asked softly, awaiting Gwen's reply.

"OK."

Gwen answered without hesitation, smiling.

"I can comb Su Shang's hair for the rest of my life, it just depends on whether you're willing."

"Hmm..."

A sudden surge of shyness left Li Sushang, but looking at that face bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun, while the restlessness in her heart intensified, it also unexpectedly brought her a sense of peace, and she smiled gently—

"Okay, it's a deal!"

"It's a deal!"

This time, when Li Sushang extended her finger again, Gwen didn't make a pinky promise with her. Instead, he directly responded with those red lips that said, "It's a promise..."

After dinner, unusually, Li Sushang had Gwen help her recover her strength before immediately launching her challenge.

Unfortunately, even though Li Sushang had cultivated her Spirit Resonance, she could only exert her power for a short time.

Just as Commander Li said, guns have male and female forms, so too does this Sword God.

When Gwen put the soaked bedding into the washing machine and returned to the bedroom, Li Sushang was extremely exhausted, was already fast asleep on the dry sheets.

"Heh, get some sleep..."

Gwen gently stroked her delicate face, then refrained from rousing her for further training, letting her drift off to sleep in her extreme exhaustion.

Perhaps... she might dream of the arduous days she spent training in the sweltering summer and freezing winter.

Gwyn's fingertips gently caressed the smooth skin, feeling the almost overflowing fullness between his fingers, and Gwen thoughts drifted away—

Cheng Lingshuang didn't seem like someone who knew how to raise children, so how did she manage to raise Li Sushang to such a young age?

You can't exactly say that the food in the Western Regions is better than that in the Central Plains, can you?

It seems that back then, the Ming Dynasty was still under the Wanli Emperor's rule...

As his thoughts wandered aimlessly, Gwen slowly drifted off to sleep.

Although Mobius is known as a stubborn person in the Honkai, claiming that he would still have a mouth even if the Earth were rebooted, he is right about one thing: Gwen has no shortage of people to help him vent his stress.

However, the pressure that is released will also be put back on him in another form.

Having thoroughly enjoyed the heroine's shy demeanor that morning, and finally managed to make Li Sushang avoid him all day with embarrassment, Gwen, feeling a sense of triumphant satisfaction from his prank, opened his attribute panel—

It's still that same unchanging string of EX, without any changes. The values that exceed the limit don't display the upgradeable level or the flashing plus sign.

"I have long since merged with the Solar Divinity, and the Light of the Mind has long been awakened, and I have even carried out some derivative development."

Even so, the level is still stuck here.

So the problem isn't with me—

It's not because I'm faulty or lacking something that prevents the upgrade; it's because the damaged system can only reach this level.

After gathering his thoughts one last time and confirming the necessity of doing so, Gwen switched pages to check his points balance—

The string of numbers starting with 1 wasn't because he spent a lot of money on something again, but because he had shattered the future of several worlds in succession, and even played a part-time role in Earth Ultimate One, bringing his points directly to nine figures.

"Tens of millions might not be enough to repair it, but hundreds of millions of points..."

"Shouldn't it be qualified to be repaired?"

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Gwen pressed the flashing plus sign—

Chapter 823 Izanami Begins Map Exploration

As the points balance rapidly dwindled Ruoshui being opened, time slowly passed, but Gwen's gaze remained unwavering as he quietly watched L9, who seemed to have changed somewhat.

Although points can buy many things, even the Erosion Herrscher has already been defeated, Finality is not far away.

Rather than waiting for some big-ticket item that might not arrive for a long time, Gwen prefers to use the points in his account for something more valuable.

Finally, just as Gwen's points balance was about to drop to seven figures, the long-dormant "l9" finally revealed its Gwen color.

"It's finally done."

Seeing the final result, which had practically drained all his points, Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he chose to upgrade.

Instantly, a long-lost sense of familiarity surged through his body, but Gwen could feel far more now than before.

Cosmo, which is not weak even among the Seventh Sense, combined with the powerful microscopic abilities brought by the four Gene Lock, gives Gwen a clearer understanding of his own changes than ever before.

At this moment, Gwen could clearly feel that his body was undergoing a complete transformation from the inside out.

The various forces that were already interconnected through his tireless efforts are undergoing a deeper level of integration and transformation.

Gwen's body was no exception. Gwen didn't know how to describe the strange changes, but he tried his best to observe and record them, hoping that one day he would be able to undergo this transformation on his own.

Compared to the past, Gwen felt that this upgrade took an exceptionally long time, but he didn't Gwen because he was focused on observing the transformation of his body.

As Gwen's body changed, an invisible aura quietly spread. This was the passive influence of a high-energy unit on the surrounding environment, just like how the sun, even without actively changing itself, would capture many celestial bodies under the influence of gravity.

However, this energy did not radiate very far; under Gwen's instinctive control, it did not even spread outside the room.

However, the changes it indirectly caused still caught the attention of Izanami, who happened to be standing in front of his door.

Sensing something amiss in the environment, Izanami frowned slightly and pushed the door open to enter.

Taking two steps forward, Izanami immediately sensed that peculiar aura.

"..."

Izanami took a half step back, withdrawing from the area of influence, but after pondering for a moment, he moved forward again, sitting down next to Gwen to feel the unpredictable transformation, hoping to leave something on his pale background.

In observing his own transformation, Gwen felt as if an incredibly long time had passed, as if the changes in the universe had occurred in the blink of an eye.

However, the slight look of vicissitude in Gwen's eyes disappeared the next moment, and he regained his usual radiance.

"Um...

It feels like a long-lost feeling.

This long-lost feeling of clarity, as if my body had become several years younger, made Gwen subconsciously want to stretch, but his raised arm unexpectedly touched something soft.

"Um?"

Gwen looked over in confusion, only to see Izanami staring intently at him, his reflection in her eyes, seemingly oblivious to the physical touch.

"..."

Gwen silently withdrew his arm, which had caused a minor incident, and stared intently into Izanami's eyes for a long while, noticing some familiar "colors".

Although he doesn't possess Griseo's unique talent, Gwen to accomplish similar tasks.

Suddenly, the figure staring blankly at Gwen's Izanami blinked, as if it had finally come back to life.

How are you feeling?

There seems to be some change in you?

Gwen immediately asked.

"Hmm, some unexpected gains—"

As Izanami spoke, he suddenly asked in return—

"You've gotten stronger again?"

I can sense that you have undergone some kind of transformation.

I sensed the energy that had just leaked out.

"Yes, that's right."

Gwen couldn't help but smirk.

"Although a huge investment was made, there were still some gains—"

Now I can probably say that I have no limits... probably.

As for you, what did you gain?

Should I try to simulate similar fluctuations?

Although the path to further improvement had been opened, Gwen did not immediately abandon the idea of Izanami.

If possible, Gwen still very much hopes to help Izanami escape the negative influence of the Void.

"...

No need.

After a brief eye contact with Gwen, seeing a familiar emotion in his gaze, Izanami shook his head slightly, then suddenly leaned forward, filling their eyes with each other's, before gently closing his own eyes—

I will explore it myself.

Izanami answered Gwen's question with his actions.

"?"

Gwen was somewhat surprised by Izanami's actions, but the next moment he took the initiative, his hands skillfully climbing up Mei's more voluptuous body than before, staining the pale figure with his own color.

Of course, the immersion in emptiness is not something that happens overnight, nor can a new color be applied in a day.

After a long argument, Izanami had no further intentions and instead took Gwen directly to outer space.

Although he did not unleash his full power, Izanami used a large amount of Imaginary Energy this time, and fought a hard battle with Gwen without excessively arousing the power of destiny.

"Yes, quite a haul."
