Transforming Kanna on Terra

Kanna pushed forward with both hands, and several bolts of lightning spread from her palms, extending toward the target.

"Strange, this move doesn't seem to have much connection to what she was throwing before?" As elite Operators, everyone tried to develop their Originium Arts to be related to or complement other moves. Kanna's situation, where the two moves had little connection, immediately felt somewhat discordant to them.

Just then, Kanna vanished from her spot in an instant, reappearing from a Lightning Wedge she had left behind earlier. The Palm Thunder in her hand continued to attack the original target without interruption.

The spot where she had originally stood was precisely the Lightning Wedge that had disappeared after the swap.

Chapter 23: If Master Ke could master acting cute, he could easily kill a traveler.

Originium Arts of Swapping Positions

Understanding flashed across everyone's eyes.

Kanna threw three Lightning Wedges, which meant she could swap between the three. They just didn't know the number of swaps, the duration the Lightning Wedges existed, or the distance between them and her.

However, after discussing it, these Operators believed that as long as the Lightning Wedges existed for more than ten minutes and the distance was within one thousand meters, she would possess the ability to easily influence a local war.

Next, Kanna demonstrated the "Four Directions, Random Flashes, Palm Thunder Technique."

Even though she deliberately controlled the output strength of the Palm Thunder, it still took less than a minute to melt the pure iron target in the center.

Kal'tsit, squinting from above, did some calculations and formed a rough estimate of Kanna's combat power. As for her actual combat strength, Kal'tsit, who had encountered many "gods" and "Great Beasts," guessed it was likely more than ten times what she displayed.

However, even the combat power shown so far far surpassed ninety-nine percent of the Operators on Rhodes Island.

"Alright! Kanna, you can stop now."

Kal'tsit's voice came through the loudspeaker.

"Your performance was flawless, and your combat intensity far exceeded our expectations. According to the Operator promotion guidelines, Amiya and I have unanimously decided to grant you the status of elite Operator, directly under S.W.E.E.P. – Welcome to Rhodes Island, we hope Rhodes Island can become your future home and harbor."

Not only Kanna heard the words from the loudspeaker, but the other Operators who had watched the entire process also heard them clearly.

For Kal'tsit's decision, they surprisingly didn't have any doubts or objections.

After all, the combat power Kanna displayed was too terrifying. She was like a child holding an RPG; what she needed now wasn't how to showcase herself, but how to control herself. Fortunately, Kal'tsit was one of Rhodes Island's top psychologists.

Having such a big threat personally managed by Kal'tsit made everyone feel much more at ease.

After speaking, Kal'tsit said to Amiya beside her, "Kanna's displayed strength is too exaggerated. Let her learn in SWEEP for now. If she can fully control herself, then I'll feel more at ease letting her be your personal guard."

Amiya nodded, looking at Kanna below with little stars twinkling in her eyes.

Seeing that the test was over, the onlookers got up and left. Ace put an arm around Misery and said exaggeratedly, "What luck you and Outcast have, to be able to casually pick up such a terrifying little one in the wild?"

Misery was also a bit stunned. Although she had suspected Kanna's combat power from the beginning, seeing it in person made her realize she had worried too much.

If the other party had truly harbored malice towards her and Rhodes Island, their team, along with Outcast, would likely have been easily annihilated by her upon meeting.

Looking at it this way, she and Outcast were indeed lucky. Although they had wasted a lot of time feeding her along the way, perhaps it was precisely because of the feeding during the journey that Kanna had developed sufficient goodwill towards Rhodes Island.

Outside, Kanna saw Outcast, Kal'tsit, and Amiya waiting for her at the entrance. She flapped her little legs and hopped over to hug Outcast, then looked up with a face full of pride and asked, "Was Kanna super great?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, Kanna is super great."

"Then can Kanna eat a little bit more tonight, just a little bit." As she spoke, Kanna extended her index finger and thumb to show a small gap.

"Of course, such a great Kanna-chan only wants to eat a little bit more, who could refuse!" Outcast picked Kanna up, showing an expression of loving affection.

Chapter 24: On the Basic Cultivation of a Foodie

To complete the test, Kanna used up a full 1% of her "battery."

According to the principle of needing to fully charge, the 1% used up, when rounded up, was equivalent to using up all her "battery." This made her already meager energy even more strained.

So, it was only natural to ask for a little bit more to eat tonight (fingertip galaxy).

Kanna leaned into Outcast's embrace, her eyes narrowed into a happy smile.

Although she didn't know why the silly child in her arms was suddenly happy, all the tests had finally been completed smoothly.

Kal'tsit led the group to an empty cafeteria, where plates of food were quickly brought over and just as quickly disappeared into Kanna's mouth.

By the time she stopped, satisfied, hundreds of plates were arranged on the table.

Fortunately, this cafeteria was a special place only opened when Rhodes Island received foreign guests, so besides the chefs and those responsible for delivering food, there was no one else present. Otherwise, many more jaws would have dropped.

"Kanna-chan, do you need to eat this much food at every meal?" Amiya, who was sitting nearby and silently delivering plates, asked curiously during a break.

Kanna, uncharactercially, looked up during her meal. She confirmed that the person speaking was the little rabbit beside her and shook her head.

"Not really! Kanna just stores the food eaten in her body. If needed, Kanna can go without eating or drinking for about ten years, relying solely on previous reserves to maintain her body's consumption. This is just replenishment now. If replenishment is complete, Kanna can go for up to a hundred years without eating."

"Wow!" Although she felt it was amazing after hearing it, the young rabbit couldn't fully grasp the implications of her words.

"So, can you only store energy by eating?" Looking at the pile of plates like a small mountain in front of her, Kal'tsit hesitated. Would Rhodes Island be eaten bankrupt by this terrifying little one?

Kanna casually grabbed a chicken drumstick, ate it in one bite, and then replied, "As far as Kanna knows, there are three ways. Besides eating, there's standing in a high place during thunderstorms to attract lightning. This is actually the fastest, but it makes the whole body tingle for a long time. Also, I can plug my tail into various electrical wires to charge, but then my tail would be fixed there and couldn't move, which isn't fun. Only eating is the most interesting, so Kanna likes to eat."

Since entering this body, Kanna had discovered that she had lost her sense of fullness. Of course, as long as her body had enough energy, she wouldn't feel hungry.

So, if she wanted to, she could eat continuously, easily eating from Glass Valley to Remupton.

Of the other two methods, the first one was when she encountered a thunderstorm shortly after arriving in Terra.

As a little fat dragon who often experienced thunderstorms in the Land of Eternity, she enjoyed a "thunder massage" from Terra.

It charged her up quite a bit at the time, but initially, to figure out how to utilize her own energy, she wasted even more, taking three days to completely gain control and stop discharging electricity randomly.

As for the second method, that was originally Kanna's standard charging method in anime, but she couldn't find a charging station in the wilderness to use.

So, from the beginning, she got used to using the third method. Coincidentally, she was also a foodie, which perfectly complemented Kanna's high conversion rate for food.

Chapter 25: Isn't Charging While Sleeping Basic Operation?

After hearing Kanna's words, even Empress Kal'tsit couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, with Kanna's eating habits, the Operators would probably have to work overtime to earn Lungmen Coins just to support her. If any situation arose that caused a cash flow problem, it wouldn't be impossible for this little one to eat them into bankruptcy in minutes.

Now that she knew there were other solutions, Kal'tsit began to ponder.

The charging plan could be considered. The issue of not being able to move while charging was easily solved; if not during the day, then at night. After all, charging while sleeping could both replenish her body's needs and avoid the predicament of wanting to play during the day but being restricted by equipment.

As for attracting lightning, Kal'tsit was genuinely curious to witness it.

Since ancient times, lightning, as a terrifying and uncontrollable energy, had always been one of the supreme authorities of the gods in mythology. If Kanna could not only withstand it unharmed but also gain replenishment from it, that would be interesting.

"How much have you replenished now?"

"Halfway there!" Kanna replied after checking her body.

Kal'tsit nodded. It seemed she wouldn't have to "exploit" the other Operators too much.

After watching Kanna finish eating, Kal'tsit asked if she could charge while sleeping.

Kanna touched her head and then looked at Kal'tsit with a confused expression.

"Kanna doesn't know! Kanna can only guarantee that she won't get hurt, but if someone touches Kanna after she falls asleep, Kanna can't guarantee that the other person won't get hurt."

After thinking about it, Kanna felt that with the voltage of the equipment running, even if her defenses were lowered after falling asleep, it wouldn't affect her. After all, for a battery, the current input would at most stop it from accepting more when full, and it wouldn't explode.

However, in a sleeping state, she couldn't guarantee her control over the current on her body and skin. So, if someone touched her in that state, they would most likely enjoy a round of electrotherapy.

Kal'tsit nodded. "Can you confirm that you won't get hurt?"

"Yes."

"That makes things easier. We just need to arrange a separate room for you, and everyone else can only wake you up by knocking or using the doorbell after you've fallen asleep."

Kanna thought about it. She was already used to sleeping alone, so she didn't reject Kal'tsit's idea. Instead, the thought of having her own private room made her a little excited.

The two reached an agreement. Kal'tsit canceled her previously planned room and arranged for her to have a private room not far from Amiya's. After receiving Kal'tsit's order, Closure rushed into the room, quickly plugged a socket by the bed, and then hurried out.

"Before I came, I heard from the other training room that Doctor Kal'tsit's hired mercenaries brought to the island had also pushed the iron ball for strength training to its limit. Everyone suspected that the iron ball was malfunctioning, which is why Closure was in such a hurry," Amiya said, explaining Closure's hasty actions as she had gone to the command center to retrieve Kanna's ID card before coming.

"Oh!" A glint of gold flashed in Kal'tsit's eyes, and she immediately recalled who the mercenary Amiya mentioned was.

Previously, Rhodes Island had accepted a somewhat disoriented nun, Specter. Upon hearing the news, this mercenary, who had a considerable relationship with Rhodes Island, came to the island. Given that they both belonged to the mysterious Sargon and were familiar with each other, she had approved the application of the Abyssal Hunter who called herself Skadi.

Because she had successfully completed mercenary missions for Rhodes Island before, the testing phase was waived, and her employment application was approved directly.

Kal'tsit wasn't surprised by the news, as there were few people on this land who understood Skadi and the mysterious Sargon better than she did.

Chapter 26: Encountering a Little Red Riding Hood

Upon hearing the news, Kanna immediately guessed that the person must be the "silly orca."

She hadn't expected that the other party would board the island around the same time as her. Since they were both on the island, they would meet sooner or later, so she became a little interested and planned to find time to visit Sharky and the happy orca.

After her accommodation was arranged, the others left one by one due to their own affairs. They were all quite confident in Rhodes Island's internal security, only reminding Kanna to bring her communicator when she wanted to go out and play, so that even if she got lost within Rhodes Island, she could be quickly located by GPS.

After everyone left, Kanna stayed in her room for a while before deciding to start Kanna's Rhodes Island Adventure Plan.

As soon as she stepped out the door, she sensed a gaze fixed on her.

With just a slight glance, she discovered a little red riding hood hiding not far away.

She waved at the other party, "Hello! I'm Kanna, want to play together?"

As the one she often used in the game, although the other party was much younger than in the game, Kanna couldn't possibly not recognize her. The legendary mysterious wolf hunter of Rhodes Island, the absolute natural enemy of all Lupos, one of the members of Rhodes Island's SWEEP, a genius girl specializing in mobile, special, and covert operations – Red.

Red, at this moment, was looking at Kanna with a look of surprise.

"You can see Red? Red's skills aren't good enough yet, Red needs more training!"

Muttering to herself, Red disappeared into the corner.

Kanna touched her head. In the game's setting, Red was a bit reclusive, but that was due to her unique personality and experiences.

She hadn't expected that a simple greeting from her would cause such a significant emotional fluctuation in Red.

As she walked outside, she opened her communicator and found the contact method Kal'tsit had set up earlier.

After listening to Kanna's words, Kal'tsit on the other end was silent for a few seconds.

"Thank you for your reminder, Kanna. The person you just saw is named Red, and I will go talk to her. I believe you two will become good friends later."

The location where Kanna was staying was specially arranged by Kal'tsit, with Red living right next door.

Kal'tsit knew that Red would become curious about unfamiliar things and would observe until she understood before losing interest. Her original intention was to have Red keep an eye on Kanna.

She hadn't expected that Red would be discovered by Kanna the moment they met and fall into self-doubt because of Kanna's greeting.

This forced her to drop what she was doing and go find Red to comfort her.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people on the island who could find Red, and she would eventually get used to it if they met a few more times.

On the other side, after finishing her call, Kanna continued her grand adventure.

Thanks to the Operator ID tag she wore and the fact that she was just a child, she was easily let through by many patrolling and maintaining security Operators along the way.

Those who had seen Kanna would even greet her warmly.

Accompanied by a floral scent, she opened a large door to reveal a variety of plants and flowers inside.

She walked in carefully, and it was clear that the owner had put a lot of effort into it.

After all, catastrophes were constant on Terra, and collecting so many different kinds of flowers and plants was a troublesome task in itself, not to mention cultivating them and then choosing suitable environments and matching ecosystems.

Therefore, this small garden was exceptionally precious.

As a polite young cub, although she was curious whether the flowers and plants on Terra were edible and what they tasted like, she would not taste them without the owner's permission.

Chapter 27, Chapter 23: Rhodes Island's Grand Adventure

Suddenly, Kanna's ears twitched. She heard faint breathing not far ahead.

She tiptoed over and saw a Vulpo girl sleeping soundly by the edge of a platform.

Her flaxen hair and youthful, beautiful appearance immediately made Kanna recognize her. Lena the Perfumer, the healer she trusted most in the early stages of the game, who, along with Hermo, had helped her overcome one difficulty after another.

So this must be the greenhouse she had modified on Rhodes Island, no wonder there were so many different kinds of flowers.
