Miss Robin, Shall We Continue?

People who have no sense of shame are truly powerful.

People like her are definitely more normal.

Lin Shuang sighed with relief, feeling a sense of triumph.

Then Acheron placed him into a bathtub filled with floating medicinal herbs.

As for the long white hair, Acheron was squatting by the bathtub, wrapping it in a towel for Lin Shuang.

"... Thanks."

Although Acheron was a bit abnormal, Lin Shuang was actually very grateful for all the things he had done for her personally.

The water was just the right temperature, slightly hot, and Lin Shuang completely slumped inside, leaving only her face exposed.

As for Acheron, he didn't move, still squatting by the bathtub, his eyes fixed on Lin Shuang and her body that was faintly visible beneath the water.

Stared at so intently by Acheron, Lin Shuang, though unsure what frightening words he was about to say, couldn't help but speak up:

"... Why are you staring at me like that?"

I'm afraid you'll get dizzy if you soak in the water for too long.

"That shouldn't be the case... given my physical strength."

Lin Shuang was quite aware of her own physical condition; the idea of fainting from a bath shouldn't have happened to her.

However, Acheron shook his head and reached into the water to touch Lin Shuang's neck and collarbone.

"Let's keep an eye on it. You're very weak right now, and we don't want anything to happen."

Acheron's tone was calm, but it was clear that he would not accept any rebuttal.

Not only did she refuse, she even started taking off her clothes after a while and began taking a bath right next to Lin Shuang.

According to her...

After soaking, Lin Shuang would need to wash her body thoroughly. Since she would be wet anyway, she might as well take a shower first.

It was all well-reasoned and supported by evidence, but Lin Shuang could only look and not touch, which was incredibly painful for her, and she could only swallow her saliva frantically on the sidelines.

This went on for a whole day.

Thanks to Lin Shuang's strong recovery ability, Lin Shuang was able to get out of bed and walk when she woke up the next day.

Although I still feel uncomfortable all over, at least it's not to the point where I have to endure the pain.

Acheron took care of Lin Shuang for a day. After seeing that she was recovering well, he made breakfast and cooked medicine for Lin Shuang before leaving.

Perhaps because of the practice she'd been doing, Acheron's dishes this time were much tastier than the first time.

After seeing Acheron off, Lin Shuang reloaded the Full Load Bottle.

As the Full Load Bottle reconnected to the Herrscher Core, Lin Shuang remained unaware of any emerging signs of consciousness.

The two Heliobus in the bottle are clearly distinct, but currently they seem to show some faint signs of merging together.

But it's still not very obvious.

I wonder if, over time, a new consciousness will emerge.

Or perhaps there's simply a 'Phantylia' hiding its existence.

The creature Heliobus is quite mysterious, and neither Lin Shuang nor Acheron could say for sure whether such a possibility existed.

However, after checking the confinement ability of the Full Load Bottle, Acheron was not too worried about this issue.

As for the aftereffects of using Hazard Trigger...

That is, now whenever Lin Shuang uses her strength, her whole body convulses in pain.

While it's not entirely impossible to use it under duress, it's clearly unnecessary to go through the trouble unless absolutely necessary.

Fortunately, Acheron could be summoned to his side at any time, so he wasn't worried about Lin Shuang's safety.

Lin Shuang was sitting on the sofa, waiting for the Firefly to come and visit.

Thankfully, the Tarot Cards from yesterday could be directly recycled by the system, otherwise it might have been lost somewhere.

What Lin Shuang regretted most yesterday was that sword.

Lin Shuang flipped her hand and took out the sword she had just retrieved from the Crafting Division yesterday from her spatial storage device.

The pale blue blade had turned grayish-white.

Its body is covered with tiny cracks, which is typical of an object that has been corroded by Nihility.

The internal structure of the sword is gradually Honkai. The so-called cracks are just the surface; they are actually marks that appear as the material becomes more fragile.

It's only because Lin Shuang isn't afraid of this level of Nihility power that things are so bad. If an ordinary person were to touch this sword, they would be in real trouble.

However, Lin Shuang had already used the Power of the Permanence to refine it, and the residual Nihility power in the sword had been dispelled.

It won't be further eroded now, but even in its current state, the quality of this sword, even with the blessing of the Permanence, can barely be considered that of an ordinary sword.

To Lin Shuang, it was already a toy, no different from an ornament.

"Sigh... my sword... I just got it yesterday, and it's already like this today."

Volume 1: Chapter 136 Firefly, Shall We Continue?

Lin Shuang gripped the sword, attempting to infuse it with even more Power of the Permanence.

However, the damage to the sword, which had already been partially Nihility, was irreversible.

If Lin Shuang cannot use the Power of the Permanence to weave a better structure to fill the missing parts.

Simply pouring power into it might actually cause the sword to completely Honkai.

Stop what you are doing.

After realizing this fact, Lin Shuang let out another long sigh.

She's going to use that Social Death Greatsword again.

He stroked the longsword, which had died after only one day, with deep regret.

Lin Shuang hadn't even had a chance to name it yet.

Although Lin Shuang used her Power of the Permanence to try to dispel the Nihility on the sword, Lin Shuang still dared not let anyone else touch it.

After all, Lin Shuang hadn't gone very far on the Path the Permanence, so she couldn't be sure that her judgment was accurate.

Moreover, Lin Shuang herself has some resistance to Nihility, so she might just ignore the slight residue because of that.

Therefore, this sword Lin Shuang, cannot be discarded casually; it must be handled properly.

The best solution would naturally be to ask Jing Yuan for help in completely destroying it, but Lin Shuang was somewhat reluctant to do so.

This was the first sword she had ever properly acquired; she simply couldn't bring herself to destroy it.

"Sigh... I'll keep it for now."

Just as Lin Shuang was about to put away the gray-white longsword.

My phone beeped with a message notification.

Upon taking it out, I was surprised to find it was Tingyun, whom I hadn't seen for several days.

These past few days, this little Fox has been working overtime non-stop, barely having time to chat on the phone.

I actually had time to chat with her today. Logically speaking, given what happened in Changle Heaven yesterday, the Six Commissions the Xianzhou should all be very busy today.

[Tingyun: How is my benefactor's health? I only heard about yesterday's events from Yukong this morning, and it truly terrified me. That Phantylia is absolutely despicable.]

[Tingyun: It's a pity that due to the attack by Phantylia, I have many more official duties today, and I can't get away. I can only send some gifts to my benefactor through the Skill Bird. I hope my benefactor won't find them offensive.]

"..."

Well, although it was all Phantylia's fault...

But seeing that Sky-Faring Commission had to continue working overtime because of yesterday's events, Lin Shuang felt inexplicably guilty.

"Cough... Why should I feel guilty? It's clearly all Phantylia's fault! My house on the Xianzhou was blown up..."

Lin Shuang consoled herself for a moment before replying:

[Lin Shuang: Thanks to the prescription from that Dragon Daughter of the Pharmacy, I'm feeling much better today. And thank you for the gifts. Actually, I'm fine. If you have time in a couple of days, I'll come see you.]

The message was marked as read almost immediately after being sent. Tingyun's message arrived very quickly.

[Tingyun: Hehe~ My benefactor, you should take better care of yourself. No injury can heal in just one day.]

[Tingyun: My benefactor, you should rest more. I'll visit you in the next couple of days and help you tidy up your new home.]

Not long after Tingyun sent the message, the sound of Skill Bird could be heard outside the door.

Lin Shuang quickly told Tingyun, then opened the door to check the goods.

The residence that Fu Xuan brought her was fully furnished, but some convenient small items or props were missing.

The small pieces of furniture were just the right replacements among the gifts sent by Tingyun.

And some of the foods that Lin Shuang likes, etc.

In the innermost small box, there was also a sachet. Lin Shuang sniffed it and found that the scent was quite similar to that of Tingyun.

Before Lin Shuang could even ask what was going on, Tingyun had already sent her a message after temporarily piling the things up in the living room:

[Tingyun: My benefactor, have you seen the sachet I prepared? It can calm the mind and soothe the nerves. I wonder if you like it?]

[Lin Shuang: I really like it. It smells a lot like Tingyun's. I thought you gave me one of your spare sachets.]

[Tingyun: My benefactor sometimes speaks in a truly embarrassing way. He clearly meant to talk about sachets, but he caused me to misunderstand.]

[Lin Shuang: What I mean is, this sachet reminds me of you, Tingyun; it has a very Tingyun -esque feel to it.]

Tingyun, far away at the Sky-Faring Commission, sat in her seat with her head down, her neck slightly hunched, looking a little shy. Her fluffy Tail swayed back and forth, indicating that she was not at peace.

"Our benefactor is really... Just say 'sachet,' why omit that part?"

Just then, a voice called out to her from afar, beckoning her to come and help. Knowing that there was work to be done Tingyun covered her face and rubbed it vigorously.

After resting in his seat for a while, he said goodbye to Lin Shuang and then got up and left in a cheerful mood.

Looking at Tingyun, who was temporarily offline on her phone, Lin Shuang put down her phone and put the sachet into her coat pocket.

I sat there with my eyes half-closed for a while.

Then another person came to visit.

Lin Shuang got up and opened the door. Standing at the door was Firefly in good spirits.

The Firefly looked at Lin Shuang with concern and spoke up:

"Lin Shuang, are you feeling better? I asked the Physician yesterday, and she said your condition is very serious."

"Much better. My body recovers very quickly, and with the medication, I have no major problems with my movements."

Lin Shuang moved her arm to indicate her condition.

Aside from not being able to act freely, it has no problem with ordinary actions, Firefly cannot tell from its appearance alone.

Seeing that Lin Shuang had recovered so quickly, he was surprised and also breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

"Come in and have a seat."

Firefly entered the house, it was greeted by a strong aroma of medicine.

After Lin Shuang helped her sit on the sofa, she took the initiative to speak this time:

"How was your rest yesterday? Were you injured? Getting dragged into the commotion for no reason, you could really squeeze a hefty sum out of Xianzhou."

The Firefly covered its mouth and laughed, shaking its head as it did so.

"Miss Qingzu from the Divination Department contacted me yesterday and said something similar when she apologized."

The Firefly didn't ask for any particularly outrageous compensation.

Firstly Firefly itself wasn't seriously injured; secondly, the Xianzhou's attitude was very good; and thirdly, with the infiltration of someone like the Lord Ravager, it's no wonder the Xianzhou's defenses weren't tight enough.
