Gaia: You Kicked Earth's Tilted Axis Back Into Place in One Shot? Are You Even Human?!

"Theoretically, that's correct."

"What is the strongest level of the Miraculous Item you have forged?"

"As long as you can afford the payment, I can even do things like wishing for world peace. That might be a bit broad... You can think of it this way: if you want, I can pluck the Vortex of the Root from the sky and give it to you."

"Wow, that's amazing!" the girl exclaimed in exaggerated surprise.

"What an unexciting little girl... You have no idea what the Vortex of the Root is, right?" Chen Li sighed.

The girl's expression was less one of shock and more one of bewilderment.

"Okay, so please describe it in a way that I can understand." The other person nodded.

"That's... the moon in the sky, isn't it?"

"Um."

"Do you believe I can eat it in one bite?"

I don't believe it.

"Phew... It seems I need to take concrete actions to convince you!" Chen Li twisted his waist and looked up at the sky.

"You just wanted to eat it all, didn't you?" the Pixie retorted.

In the Moon World, in this mysterious world of the moon, there is a significance that is completely different from that of ordinary satellites. Inside, there is the Moon Spirit Crystal Autonomous Calculator (a photon crystal with a diameter of three thousand kilometers, a supercomputer the size of the moon, Remembrance all the past and predicts all the future. Its calculation scale can rival that of an all-powerful computer in the Solar System).

The words on it are lit up, so the taste must be amazing.

I believe it, I believe it, I believe it.

[Big brother, stop messing around!]

Please!

"Shush. I'll revive it after you eat it."

[Okay!]

Chapter 289 Gaia: You kicked the Earth's tilted axis right?! You're human!

Chen Li planned to try the taste of the moon.

Because there seem to be quite a lot of amazing things on the moon.

However, before that, Chen Li placed a Miracle Crystal on the main body of the Revival Match. After the Crystal merged into it, he used the Peaceful Longbow to shoot it towards the moon.

Although I don't know why, the nine clans of the Second Sorcerer, the Zelretch, actually... also have the Moon?

That's very much like the Nine Clans!

Miracles and magic are never free.

Conversely, this means you can spend real money. For example, Miracle Crystals can be used to enhance Miraculous Item.

But that doesn't mean the Miraculous Item will be enhanced in every way... On the contrary, the enhancement effect is rather abstract.

The enhancement effects vary depending on the attributes of the different Miraculous Item.

The effect of using Crystals to enhance the main body of the Revival Match is to expand the concept of "individual" in the Revival Match Miraculous Item.

For example, the moon can be viewed as an individual entity.

The moon disappeared? Don't worry, it's just watching a 30-second commercial while waiting to be resurrected!

However, this effect can only be used "before death".

This did not make the intensity of the Revival Match excessive, after all, the Revival Match could even revive the Aeon.

Even if the moon has a higher "mass", can it still compare to the Aeon?

Furthermore, given the numerous limitations and the inability to achieve a qualitative transformation, Chen Li typically wouldn't use this method.

Because it's losing money.

Doesn't this seem a bit like the difference between magic and sorcery?

"???"

[Only what is impossible for humans, no matter how hard they try, can be called magic. Enhancing Miraculous Item with Crystals only brings them to the level of magic—that is, problems that can be solved by spending manpower and resources. For example, you could willingly wait for countless 30-second intervals without spending a single Crystal.]

So what are you trying to say?

"Wouldn't your actions just now be considered a kind of... magic trick?"

"You f***ing..."

Your map of the Yan Kingdom is quite long!

"Okay, I'm going to start!" Chen Li looked up at the moon in the sky.

"Wait a minute." Miyu Emiya suddenly called out to Chen Li.

"What's wrong?"

"Although I don't believe it, What If you really ate the moon, it would have a Destruction impact on Earth. This includes, but is not limited to, extreme climate change, the collapse of marine ecosystems, seasonal disruptions due to axial instability, and an increased risk of meteorite impacts," Miyu Emiya said.

As a child who never had any dreams, Miyu Emiya has an exceptionally rich reserve of scientific knowledge... so much so that she even dreams of building rockets, although she never succeeds.

[Yes, bro, yes. Even a temporary disappearance wouldn't last!]

[I have no objection!]

[Gaia, Shush!]

Gaia's voice is very different from Alaya's voice, and Alaya, not Gaia, reacted the most after hearing that Chen Li planned to eat the moon.

Theoretically speaking, unless it's an extreme ending like Land of Steel, even if humanity were to perish, the Earth might not be significantly affected. But that's just theory.

The disappearance of the moon would have a significant impact on Earth, but an even greater impact on humanity.

"Don't worry, Miyu. Do you know that the rule of the world is Equivalent Exchange?"

"Perhaps... so you want to say?"

"In other worlds, I could certainly be called a virtuous person. I have accumulated a considerable amount of merit."

"So what?"

"And according to the principle of Equivalent Exchange, if I create enough merit, I can do enough immoral things! So don't worry, someone will take care of the problems caused by the moon disappearing for 30 seconds," Chen Li said, patting Miyu Emiya's head.

If I can't do anything immoral without receiving Approval of Noble Morality, and I still can't do anything immoral even after receiving it, then what's the point of receiving it?!

Come to think of it, Chen Li felt like he had forgotten something...

"That damned Miraculous Forger shouldn't be chasing me anymore!" The Second Sorcerer, Zelretch, looked around. Because of his previous two experiences, Zelretch always suspected that Chen Li might suddenly jump out from some corner, put his hand on his shoulder, and shout something to him.

"You can run pretty fast!"

The familiar tone of voice rang in my ears.

The Zelretch threw the gem he had been clutching to the ground, and countless white wisps of smoke instantly filled the air!

As a user of gem magic, Zelretch can naturally store magic through gems and then use it.

The advantage is that it's faster, but the disadvantage is that it uses more gems.

However, this drawback is almost non-existent for the Zelretch.

"Cough cough! What's wrong with the person Chen Li asked me to find? Why does he throw out smoke bombs at the drop of a hat?" Sparkle complained bitterly, looking at the smoke-filled environment.

However, once the smoke cleared, Sparkle looked at the enormous mountain of gems before her, and her dissatisfaction and resentment vanished instantly.

"Chen Li is telling the truth! This person is incredibly generous! He'll just give away mountains of gems like that. I initially thought Chen Li was exaggerating... Since it's a gift from him, I won't be polite." Sparkle happily pocketed the mountain of gems.

"Since they've escaped, let's keep looking... Don't even think about getting away." A wicked smile appeared on Sparkle's face. After Sparkle covered her face with the mask that was tilted on her head, her figure vanished instantly, leaving only the mask standing quietly in place.

The "I am Joy" Miraculous Item allows Sparkle to appear randomly near a friend's friend's friend.

Sparkle and Chen Li are friends, Chen Li and Rin Tohsaka are friends, Rin Tohsaka and Zelretch are friends (friends here refer to acquaintances).

Therefore, Zelretch is a friend of a friend of a friend of Sparkle.

Although we're friends,... Sparkle's way of life is to betray friends, betray brothers, and frame Travel Together!

In a sense, this Miraculous Item is far more convenient than Slap Gloves.

"Alright, stop running. The Miraculous Forger Chen Li asked me to give you my regards and leave a message asking why you ran away?" Sparkle said as she reappeared in front of the Zelretch.

At this moment, the Zelretch finally calmed down and realized that the one who said that familiar line was not the nightmare that had been chasing him all along.

"... He was chasing me, why didn't I run?" the Zelretch couldn't help but say.

The Zelretch finally couldn't take it anymore... That lunatic had been chasing him, and the worst part was that the Zelretch didn't even know why the other person was chasing him.

What made the Zelretch even more desperate was that he didn't even know why he was running away!

"Why would he chase you if you didn't run... Oh, no. I do know that, he wants to learn your Second Magic."

"Then he should just say it!"

"If you just tell him directly, will you hand it over to him?"

"Of course not! But at least I'll know why he's pursuing me!"

"Oh... but no need, he's already learned it."

"???"

"Oh, didn't you know? As long as you use any space-related abilities in front of him, it will accumulate learning progress for that ability. Chen Li even told me at the time, 'You are such a dedicated teacher. You demonstrated how to use the Second Magic a full 100 times for him, which is why he learned the Second Magic in just half an hour,'" Sparkle laughed.

"... Damn it!"

Old man, he learned the magic I painstakingly researched in just half an hour?

And is it because I kept running away from him?

In other words... as long as I don't run away, he won't be able to learn it?

Then why should I run?!

Gaia and Alaya have misled me!

"In short, Chen Li has already learned the Second Magic, so he will no longer pursue you, but he sent me here to ask you for a favor."

"I won't help!"

"Oh..." Sparkle turned and left.

"Wait, you're just leaving like that?"

"Yeah, I've already passed on the message. What's the point of not leaving? Anyway, you'll be the one having fun, not me," Sparkle said.

"What do you mean? Explain yourself."

"But Chen Li also said that if you're willing to help, these 100 Starstones are yours. You'll get another 100 after it's done," Sparkle said, taking out a bag of Starstones.

"This thing..." Zelretch was taken aback when he saw the Starstones.

This thing is shrouded in mystery!

Moreover, it seems to fit quite well with the Second Magic.

It also seems to be considered a gemstone.

The Zelretch is skilled in two abilities: Second Magic and jewel magic.

The object before us perfectly matches the two professions of the Zelretch.

"If there's a reward, why didn't you take it out sooner?" The Zelretch decided to test the waters first.

"Oh, because Chen Li said that if you're not willing to help, then these Starstones will be mine. What a pity..." Sparkle, somewhat disappointed. "...What kind of help did he want me to do?" Zelretch instantly saw through the meanness of Sparkle's personality.

"It's very simple, Chen Li wants to borrow your Second Magic."

"Didn't they say he learned the Second Magic?"

"He doesn't spend money to use the Second Magic himself, does he? What he spends is these Starstones, and 100 Starstones might not be enough for Chen Li, so he might as well come to you."

"... Then what do you want me to do?"

"It's very simple. Just Wondrous Brush, then add it to your Friends Circle, and keep typing '1'." Sparkle took out a pink La Pluma.
