Chapter 168
Such a difficult maneuver—who wouldn't be confused? How could a group of weak Herrscher possibly dare to revoke her license?
Danzhu: "Hehe, Chi Yuan, I've come to find you."
[Danzhu using the Life Coin Trial Version, location: St. Freya Academy.]
A flash of light appeared in the Death Space, Danzhu's figure vanished, only to reappear in the St. Freya Academy dormitory a second later.
She saw Kiana munching on potato chips, Theresa urging Teacher Himeko to drink bitter melon juice, Raiden Mei making a ruckus in the kitchen, Bronya teaching Seele how to play games with Bronya... and finally, Fu Hua staring at her intently.
Danzhu: "???"
Is the atmosphere really this relaxed?
Theresa: "It's Danzhu! Welcome, welcome! This headmaster has brought you some of her treasured bitter melon juice!"
Chapter 274 What is the magic surprise for Vill-V?
A large glass of bitter melon juice landed in Danzhu's hands. Its bright green color made her feel uneasy, especially after seeing Theresa down the whole glass in one go.
Danzhu appreciated the kindness of the St. Freya Academy, and wanted to politely decline.
Bitter melon juice is a drink for whoever wants to!
However, considering the Shenzhou tradition of "guests follow the host's lead," she could only hold the bitter melon juice in her hand and symbolically take a sip.
Unsurprisingly, it tasted absolutely awful; my mouth was filled with bitterness.
Danzhu: "Chi Yuan, let's go repair Little Xuan together. We only have one day, so we need to hurry or it will be too late."
After glancing at the sun in the sky, Danzhu tried to use feng shui to confirm the location of Mount Tai Xu in Shenzhou.
Fu Hua: "Danzhu, there's no need to rush. Little Xuan is in my room."
Danzhu: "Hmm? Didn't you say last time that you left Little Xuan on Mount Tai Xu?"
Fu Hua: "Of course I brought them back a long time ago."
Mount Tai Xu is a sparsely populated place, and she herself has been away from the mountain for many years. Furthermore, Fuyun Temple left unguarded, so of course she has to bring Little Xuan here.
Otherwise, should we just leave it in Mount Tai Xu and let Little Xuan spin a spider web?
Danzhu: "That's right, then quickly take me to see Little Xuan, and let you witness my abilities!"
Cang Xuan: "..."
Even though Vill-V contributed the most, why is Danzhu acting as if all the credit belongs to her?
Danzhu: "Oh! Chi Yuan, you've really changed a lot! Your room is filled with so many strange and wonderful things?!"
Entering Fu Hua's room, Danzhu was incredulous at what she was seeing.
Impossible, this is actually that Blockhead's room?
Think back to the old Fuyun Temple, it was completely empty. There were no decorations, not even a mouse to be seen.
Perhaps that's a bit of an exaggeration, but if ten mice ran into Fuyun Temple, at least eight of them would starve to death.
Of the remaining two, one was killed by the Spring No Old, and the other died suddenly while practicing martial arts.
If Fu Hua hadn't been leading the way, Danzhu would have doubted she'd entered the wrong room.
Fu Hua: "Danzhu, actually this..."
The Herrscher of Reason: "Hey! This is my masterpiece! Come, Danzhu, let me show you."
The Herrscher of Reason took Danzhu's hand and began to introduce her spoils of war.
The Herrscher of Reason, "This fan is carved from century-old jade bamboo; the craftsmanship is exquisite. This gourd is even more extraordinary; it was originally..."
Danzhu: "Chi Yuan, the Herrscher of Reason, she's been deceived, hasn't she?"
Seeing the Herrscher of Reason's earnest explanation, Danzhu couldn't help but facepalm.
It's supposed to be exquisitely crafted, made of century-old jade bamboo. But this toy, which looks beautiful, is probably infested with moths inside. Danzhu can tell at a glance that it's a fake.
Fu Hua: "Sigh... it's a long story."
The Herrscher of Reason: "Huh? Even if you're whispering, can't you at least show some respect for me? Don't send it to a group chat!"
Theresa: "Little Senti, no matter how you look at it, this thing looks fake, doesn't it?"
The Herrscher of Reason: "I'm willing! I am the Herrscher of Reason, the one who controls consciousness. Who can lie to me?"
The Herrscher of Reason has altered your consciousness; now you believe that everything she bought is genuine!
Danzhu: "Never mind, let's wake up Little Xuan first."
Opening the hidden compartment in Fu Hua's bedside table, one finds a tiny doll sleeping inside, Little Xuan hands resting on its stomach, like Sleeping Beauty.
After checking, Little Xuan itself was not damaged; it was just that the battery was dead.
Danzhu took out the reactor that Vill-V had made and began her battery-changing surgery.
Theresa: "Um, is it really okay to have Danzhu come?"
After all, Danzhu and Cang Xuan are generally perceived as unreliable, and were complete slackers in Mobius's laboratory.
It's impossible for them not to worry if you let Danzhu repair Little Xuan.
Cang Xuan: "Don't worry, Danzhu can do it. After all, it was me and she who created Little Xuan together."
Theresa: "I really can't rest easy thinking about the trouble you guys caused in the Mobius Laboratory."
Danzhu: "Hey, what do you mean? I'm pretty reliable too, it's just that I'm not as good as Senior Sister Klein and the Doctor!"
[Q&A begins.]
What mysterious surprise did Vill-V prepare in the Elysian Realm?
[A: Against Anti-Kevin Armament.]
[B: Cards.]
[C: Magic Show.]
[D: Time Chicken.]
Theresa: "?!!"
Kiana: "A time machine, Vill-V, you actually made something like this?"
Incredible! Incredible! Is this the professional competence of an engineering expert? After Fifty Thousand Years in the Previous Era Elysian Realm, they finally managed to build a time machine through tireless effort.
Vill-V: "Perhaps, after all, it was something Memory Body did, Fifty Thousand Years ago, who knows?"
Bronya: "No, it's Time Chicken, not a Time Machine. A single word difference makes a world of difference."
Pardofelis: "What kind of chicken is Time Chicken? Can you eat it?"
Elysia: "Perhaps it's possible, but wouldn't that be an alchemical invention belonging to Occultist?"
Sue: "A mysterious surprise... it could also be the work of Great Magician."
Vill-V: "Is it finally my turn? The greatest and most magnificent magic show of the century!"
Theresa: "Oh right, the system asked about a mysterious surprise. Magician, this must have been your doing, right?"
No need to guess, that "Time Chicken" thing is probably fake.
Vill-V: "This audience member, revealing the secret of a magic trick before the surprise is coming isn't a good habit. But the surprise I've prepared is definitely a big... um."
Elysia: "Wait, Vill-V, think about it again."
Just as Vill-V was about to reveal the answer, Elysia reacted quickly and covered her mouth.
Vill-V: "Hmm... just talking about a magic show is indeed too broad; it doesn't really demonstrate anything. Could it be my new type of Anti-Kevin Armament?"
[Incorrect answer.]
The correct answer is cards.
Vill-V: "Oh dear, this is a difficult situation."
Pardofelis: "Sister Vill-V, what exactly did you turn into cards?"
It can't possibly be an ordinary card.
You have to understand that this is a magic show by Vill-V; she absolutely won't give up without pulling out some dangerous items.
[Vill-V's punishment: to expose her Original and embarrass herself by having her face covered in little turtles.]
Vill-V: "Huh?!!"
The Original, suddenly awakened, stared wide-eyed, completely bewildered as to why it had suddenly transformed into its current state.
In front of the mirror, she was still wearing the magician's hat and gear-style clothing, but the little turtles on her face were red, blue, green... all sorts of colors.
Chapter 275 The Awakening of the Book of Cang Xuan Profound
Elysia: "It's the Original Vill-V, that's quite a rare sight. Welcome, welcome."
Vill-V: "Um... hello."
Original Vill-V took out all sorts of wiping wipes and color-removing agents in the workshop, but she couldn't wash the color off her face at all.
She finally understood what the system meant; going out with such a face would be absolutely embarrassing.
But the Magician answered the question wrong, so why should she be dragged out and humiliated? That's not fair!
Although [Vill-V] is the same person, it was she who was injured!
Elysia: "Pardo, I have a task for you. Go to the Spiral Workshop and bring out Vill-V, then introduce her to everyone."
Pardofelis: "This... isn't this inappropriate?"
That's what she said, but as she said it, Pardofelis had already stepped one foot into the alchemy workshop.
Vill-V: "No, absolutely not!"
Elysia: "No way, Vill-V, come out and meet everyone! Are you really going to refuse the enthusiasm of a beautiful girl?"
Vill-V: "... Nothing you say will work, Pardo! If you dare come in, I'll unleash Anti-Kevin Armament!"
Pardofelis: "Gurgle... Sister Vill-V, I was just kidding."
In that instant, the entire alchemy workshop seemed to come alive.
Pardofelis swallowed hard, his body instinctively twitching backward. Danger signals emanated from the shadows and every corner.
Sister Vill-V, just how many models of Anti-Kevin Armament?!
[In the scene, Raiden Mei explores Elysian Realm and finds Vill-V, who has been hiding in the shadows.]
I knew you'd be here.
"Of course, you have no idea how much of a commotion Elysia caused with that."
There was a hint of displeasure in Vill-V's tone.
"I just finished preparing for my new show, and she stole all the limelight. How about letting me, the one who only knows how to forge iron, take the new model around for a spin later?"
Those who only know how to forge iron are clearly referring to experts.
The chief engineer who oversees more than 90% of all of Vill-V's work.
"It seems you don't like it here." Raiden Mei frowned.
I wouldn't say I dislike it.
Vill-V sighed.
"However, you can probably imagine how someone like me would feel if I discovered that there were some pleasant surprises I was completely unaware of."
Raiden Mei nodded, confirming that Vill-V was also unaware of the existence of the Elysian Realm.
Another piece of valuable intelligence.
"Forget it, let's not talk about those sad things. Aren't you curious at all about what surprise I've prepared?" Vill-V asked again.
"Now that you say that, I'm less curious."
Danger! Raiden Mei's intuition told her it was dangerous.
"It's alright, the more surprised someone is, the more interesting their expression of surprise is."
