This was the first time in Qiji's life that he had donned his Armament.
He felt his raging Heart Essence surging across his body, bringing him an unprecedented sense of power.
You're in great shape!
Enough with the chit-chat!
With a flick of his toes, Qiji shot out of the small boat like a cannonball!
It rushed straight towards the Suyo.
Before the Remnant's various attacks could land, he darted over like a phantom and swept the girl up in his arms.
Then, with a slight wave of his hand, the lenses on his arm immediately flew off.
Transforming into dozens of streaks of light, they precisely targeted their enemies!
The Remnant was grazed by the lens, resulting in either death or serious injury.
They seemed to realize that this suddenly appearing creature was not to be trifled with, and after hesitating for a moment, they all turned and ran!
But Qiji naturally wouldn't allow such a thing.
You think you can just leave without even getting any loot?
Stop making your Brother Ji laugh!
Qiji freed one of his hands, which had been holding Suyo, and clenched his fist tightly towards the group of scattering Remnant.
The group of Remnant suddenly stiffened.
The next second, countless sharp rays of light erupted from within their bodies—
They were tiny lenses that had previously been embedded in their bodies!
The light tore through from the inside out, and in no time, the Remnant images exploded one after another.
The third-tier leader struggled a little longer, but only a little—
It held on until it let out a mournful cry, and that was all.
The next instant, it exploded again with a deafening roar!
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty Remnant, including a third-tier lower-level leader, were wiped out!
Qiji felt better than ever before!
turn out to be--
Is this the power of Armament?
Even a small attempt has yielded many pleasant surprises!
After his initial excitement subsided, Qiji didn't forget to scan the battlefield and immediately estimate the drop rate.
However, it was discovered that his drop rate was extremely low.
It feels like there's mold in it...
Qiji glanced down at Suyo in his arms, and seriously suspected that this guy was affecting his drop rate.
Apart from the leading Tier 3 Remnant dropped a green Echo Fragment, the remaining thirty-odd Tier 2 Remnant combined only dropped three white fragments...
The drop rate is less than one in ten.
Moreover, not a single [Circuit Book] has been destroyed!
Of course, the "color" mentioned above is actually the quality color displayed by the fragment after Qiji activates the "System Perspective", not the actual color.
The true color of the fragments is mostly determined by their genealogical attributes.
Like that green fragment, which appears to glow green from the System Perspective, but in reality, it is a red fragment.
This also means that, unlike other Echoer who have to physically sense the fragments to discern their quality, Qiji doesn't need to go through that trouble at all; he can determine the value of a fragment simply by looking at it from afar.
All the Remnant have been dealt with; it's safe now.
Suyo Qiji then pried open the hands that were tightly holding him in his arms and casually threw the latter to the ground.
He was worried that when he went to collect the spoils later, holding Suyo in his arms, what if the Echo of this girl resonated with the fragments, causing the fragments to fly towards her on their own? Wouldn't that be awkward?
Although the probability is extremely low, according to the book, it requires an extremely high degree of compatibility in attributes to encounter such an event, making it a matter of sheer luck.
But this guy's lineage is, after all, [Thousand Faces], possessing multiple attributes of Mimicry.
Qiji is a cautious person, just to be on the safe side.
He can't possibly rush over here, save this girl, and then have to work for her for nothing, can he?
However, when Qiji abandoned his Suyo and eagerly wanted to see what lineage those fragments belonged to...
He took a step, but found his feet were a little heavy.
I took another step forward, and then I heard the sound of something rubbing against the sand.
Qiji suddenly turned around.
Then he discovered that the masked girl was clinging tightly to his ankle, refusing to let go.
His body left a long trail on the sand.
"???"
No, damn it, are you okay?
While a question mark appeared on his forehead, Qiji also realized that his "illness" seemed to have really been cured.
Now, facing the Suyo, he has finally regained his "peace of mind."
I remember on the day of the competition, after seeing this guy's face under the mask, I always felt an unusual sense of unease...
Even his image would occasionally flash through her mind.
But Qiji has always claimed that he's not interested in beautiful women!
This made him think there was something wrong with him...
Fortunately, the symptoms seem to have subsided.
Thinking back carefully, it seems like I felt much better after I got home that day, right?
Qiji relieved.
Otherwise, if it happens a few more times...
If the comments section saw this, they'd probably all criticize him for having a small head that controls a large head and for being unable to move when he sees a pretty girl!
This can really affect his popularity!
Chapter 85 Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother Brother...
However, while Qiji was normal now, Suyo seemed completely abnormal!
Clinging to Qiji's legs and refusing to let go...
Even after being dragged several steps, they would hold on tightly...
Qiji frowned, struggled to pull his foot out of Suyo's hand, and took a few steps to the side to keep his distance.
Just as he was wondering what was wrong with this guy, the next moment, the other party pulled off an even more perplexing move!
"Brother, brother, brother, brother, brother..."
As soon as Suyo saw Qiji walk away, she didn't even bother to stand up properly. Instead, she kept calling out "Brother" and crawled on all fours towards Qiji on the beach...
It's starting to look a bit like an aberrant species...
This startled Qiji!
No, why are you calling me "brother"?
Your brother is dead!
I'm Qiji you hate the most!
Qiji couldn't understand what kind of sudden madness Suyo had suddenly displayed.
Could it be because of the Armament he's wearing now?
But my Armament has been optimized by the system!
He had previously asked the system if using the [Thousand Faces] lineage's Armament would allow the Thousand Faces Family to recognize him.
The system told him to rest assured!
They say they've done visual optimizations, and that it's guaranteed to be completely different from the Suyo.
After using it, Qiji also felt that the system was indeed reliable.
How can Suyo compare to how dashing he is when he's fully Armament?
The two Armament placed together look like two completely unrelated styles!
Furthermore, the characteristics of Armament are completely different!
Because Qiji had no [Mimicry] Echo, his fighting style after activating [Person in the Mirror] was completely different from that of the Thousand Faces Family!
They look different, have different characteristics, and fight differently!
Then who can still blatantly lie and say they're wearing the same Armament?
Therefore, Qiji calmly analyzed the situation.
Suyo calling him "brother" could not possibly be because of the Armament.
Why is that?
Qiji couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
What if the other person is simply having a fit of madness?
He's just playing a character with Thousand Faces; he's not actually Thousand Faces.
Qiji thought of her younger sister at home...
He has a younger sister!
He immediately decided to take a step back and distance himself from the Suyo.
However, Suyo climbed up very quickly.
Qiji's half-step retreat was faster than his own!
In a flash, the girl climbed up to him and looked up at him.
He knelt down and gripped Qiji's hand tightly.
Qiji was using the [Person in the Mirror] Armament for the first time, and his control wasn't very smooth yet. Ironically, the girl's action automatically triggered a counter-attack...
Suyo's small hand was instantly scratched and bleeding from the lens, but she seemed completely unaware.
"Brother, please!"
do not leave Me!
Don't leave me again!
I...
I can do anything!!!
"???"
Beneath the mask, Qiji's handsome features instantly contorted into a frown.
I was taken aback by the weighty weight of the other person's words...
He immediately wanted to tell her that he wasn't her brother.
No, it's not!
