Remember My Name: Raiden • Guardian of the River of Souls • Mei
If she could get Lin Shuang's help... would her investigation be able to be even bolder?
Firefly didn't say a word the whole way, mainly because she wasn't familiar with the Xianzhou native, and she had only met Lin Shuang today.
Her main concern was how to invite Lin Shuang to accept her commission to investigate things at Penacony.
Fu Xuan, seeing that there were outsiders present, didn't say anything more.
After arranging temporary accommodations for the two, he hurriedly left to oversee the overall situation.
Such a major event occurred inside the Xianzhou: a Lord Ravager infiltrated the Changle Heaven Cavern and engaged in a fierce battle with the guests of the Xianzhou.
It almost destroyed the entire Cavern.
This is no small matter.
Fortunately, the houses on the Xianzhou were built sturdily enough, coupled with the prevailing militaristic atmosphere.
The disaster was not severe, and not many houses collapsed.
Just thinking about the whole thing Fu Xuan feel a chill run down his spine.
Changle Heaven was Cavern with a very high density of people.
Fortunately, the general arrived in time, and Lin Shuang was also assertive enough.
Otherwise, the consequences would be truly unimaginable.
As for Lin Shuang...
After sitting down on the sofa in the new house, he looked at the Firefly who had been helping him all the way, waved his hand apologetically, and said:
"Look at the mess we've made today, why don't you take a day off and we can talk again tomorrow?"
Firefly nodded. She also needed to reconsider this matter. Lin Shuang's demonstrated strength and connections had clearly exceeded her expectations.
However, looking at Lin Shuang, Firefly was resting on the sofa and seemed to be in poor condition, the robin asked with some concern:
"Miss Lin, do you need my help? Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm quite good at taking care of people."
The Firefly seemed eager to try.
Putting aside Lin Shuang's strength, just the fact that she managed to protect him unharmed and survive in the very center of the battlefield just now filled Lin Shuang with Firefly gratitude.
Lin Shuang didn't mind the Firefly's kindness; if it were another time, Lin Shuang certainly wouldn't have refused.
After all, who wouldn't mind being taken care of by a beautiful woman?
But whether Lin Shuang used the Hazard Trigger to release the Herrscher Core, or finally shattered the toy knife and swung that slash that belonged to Acheron.
All of this caused Lin Shuang's body to suffer from the erosion of Nihility.
It wasn't that she couldn't handle it; after all, training with Acheron hadn't been for nothing.
Lin Shuang was mainly worried that the Firefly might feel uncomfortable if it stayed by her side all the time.
She's only a small amount of fat; as long as you don't stay in close contact for a long time, she'll be fine.
But if the Firefly stay here and take care of her for a day, that's another story.
"No need. You've heard about the power I used today. Don't spend too much time with me for now. You'd better go to the Alchemy Commission and have someone check you out yourself."
Lin Shuang waved her hand, declining the Firefly's offer.
"... Okay, I'll come see you again tomorrow. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything."
The Firefly nodded and didn't insist.
Lin Shuang probably has her own secrets too.
After answering, the Firefly brewed a pot of tea for Lin Shuang before leaving the house.
Until the gate was closed.
Lin Shuang's face immediately fell.
His previous calm demeanor crumbled instantly.
"... Help me, Sister Acheron ~"
The moment she finished speaking, Lin Shuang felt a darkness before her eyes, and then a familiar embrace and a familiar fragrance wafted towards her.
In front of Acheron, there was no need to pretend, so Lin Shuang's face was scrunched up, and she nestled in Acheron, starting to whine softly:
"Acheron, it hurts so much! Phantylia attacked me without a word today..."
Acheron, who was carefully holding Lin Shuang in his arms, frowned deeply upon hearing this.
No wonder the power she left behind was triggered; she had prepared herself to be summoned by Lin Shuang the moment she realized it.
After waiting for a long time, I was finally summoned, but it seemed the event was already over.
Why not ask her to come and help?
Why didn't you ask me to help you?
Acheron wasn't the type to keep quiet, so once he thought of it, he just asked directly.
Looking at Lin Shuang slumped in her arms, she felt both worried and angry. She wanted to punish him severely, but couldn't bring herself to do it.
Lin Shuang could certainly hear the hint of dissatisfaction in Acheron's tone.
But she was fearless. Instead, she rubbed her face against Acheron's chest, their skin touching, the soft touch dispelling Lin Shuang's pain.
"If you come, Luofu will know you're not Galaxy Ranger. That won't do."
"... You've gotten yourself into this state over such a trivial matter?"
"How can this be considered a small matter?"
Lin Shuang pursed her lips. This is no small matter. Is Self-Annihilator a good identity? Once exposed, you'll have to change your identity again.
"..."
Acheron pursed her lips. Lin Shuang's stubbornness remained unchanged, which made her unable to bear it any longer. She reached out and pinched Lin Shuang's cheek, rubbing it hard twice.
"Waaah--"
Lin Shuang was completely powerless to resist at this moment. Apart from making a couple of whimpering noises to make her presence known, she was like a giant doll, completely at Acheron's mercy.
Acheron shamelessly teased Lin Shuang until her face turned bright red.
He took off his rather stiff coat, put his arms around Lin Shuang, and helped her to a more comfortable lying position in his arms.
"Tell me the details of what happened first."
Lin Shuang felt helpless, but she didn't hide anything.
From the moment she realized something was wrong, to Jing Yuan arriving at the scene, their combined efforts to defeat Phantylia, and the final outcome.
He told it all to Acheron.
The whole process wasn't long, but Acheron couldn't help but pinch Lin Shuang's face again as he listened.
"Facing a Lord Ravager, you really are... The stab I gave you was for you to escape, not for you to fight the Emanator to the death."
"Ouch... Gently, gently..."
Unable to resist, Lin Shuang had no choice but to beg for mercy.
"It won't happen again, it won't happen again... Let go, let go."
Acheron ultimately couldn't bring himself to be ruthless. Hearing Lin Shuang's assurance, he withdrew some of his strength.
You really better not do it next time.
As he spoke, Acheron spread his hands and said:
"Let me see that Small Bottle."
"What's wrong?"
"It might sound strange coming from me, but the power of Destruction isn't so easy to obtain, and the characteristics of the Heliobus... it's best to examine it carefully."
Volume 1: Chapter 132 Remember My Name: Raiden, Bosenmori, Gepard
Although Acheron didn't finish his sentence, Lin Shuang immediately understood what he meant.
The concept of Heliobus) can be integrated with each other.
Once integrated, they can bring together various consciousnesses into a unified whole.
Generally, Great Heliobus is not capable of completely devouring other consciousnesses. Once it is broken apart, the consciousnesses of the other Heliobus will regain their respective control and disband.
But Phantylia is quite different.
The consciousness of other Great Heliobus -level Heliobus she had devoured had long since been completely obliterated.
There was simply no extra consciousness she could spare to create a clone.
If Great Heliobus like Phantylia were to have its body shattered and split into two or more Heliobus, what would each of its clones look like?
Nobody can say for sure.
Acheron's main concern was whether Lin Shuang would end up carrying a 'Lord Ravager' with her when using this power.
Below that is the majority of the Destruction power from a Lord Ravager.
Will Lin Shuang's rash use of this power attract the attention of the Aeon of Destruction, and will it lead to a new Lord Ravager targeting her?
These are all things that Acheron is worried about.
The thought of this made Acheron furious.
Lin Shuang is truly incredibly audacious.
They were Emanator by the Aeon, after all. How can you just steal their power like that? Aren't you afraid of being targeted by the Destruction?
Of course, being glanced at by the Aeon of Destruction isn't a big deal. Aeon follow their own logic and generally don't interfere too much in mortal affairs.
However, the Lord Ravager under his command is no pushover; Phantylia is clearly not the type to engage in direct combat.
There are other contestants whose fearsome reputations resound throughout the world.
"Hehe... it's in the left pocket of my shirt."
Lin Shuang chuckled, her smile widening as she spoke of her spoils for the day.
After absorbing the power of the Phantylia with the Full Load Bottle, she didn't put it back into the Herrscher Core, but instead put it in her pocket.
The main problem is that I don't have the strength, and my body can't handle it.
Seeing this person's carefree, silly grin, Acheron finally let out a long sigh.
There's a strange kind of exhaustion in taking care of unruly kids.
He reached out and rummaged through Lin Shuang's body for a while, finally finding the Small Bottle, barely an inch long, in her pocket.
Touching the slightly warm bottle, Acheron was surprised to find that the seal was quite perfect; Acheron couldn't sense even the slightest leakage of Destruction power.
Previously, Acheron hadn't paid much attention to Heliobus because he wasn't that strong.
Only now did she realize that this unassuming Small Bottle could preserve even the power of an Emanator -level being so perfectly.
This was somewhat beyond her expectations.
Is this bottle really that effective?
Just then, Lin Shuang gently nuzzled against Acheron's chest, drawing her attention, and then spoke:
"Try flipping the switch on the bottle cap, then holding it in your hand and shaking it up and down. This is a fairly straightforward way to use it."
Upon hearing this, Acheron did not use it immediately. Instead, he lowered his head to look at Lin Shuang.
Seeing that Acheron didn't move, Lin Shuang also looked up, only to find herself staring right into Acheron's eyes.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"
"How could you tell me something so important like this?"
Acheron was somewhat helpless. This Small Bottle may not look impressive, but if its effects were to become known, countless forces would want to obtain it.
The way to use this thing was explained so easily; it's hard to say whether Lin Shuang was just not vigilant enough or what.
"Because it's the Acheron. I believe you. Besides, didn't you want to help me with the checkup? Why are you being so fussy?"
