Furina Accompanies Me in Disguising as a Douluo Deity Once More!
Spirit City.
"How did the investigation go?"
Bibi Dong sat high upon the imperial throne, looking with a stern expression at the scout kneeling below.
She heard that an extremely luxurious open-air stage had appeared out of thin air in Spirit City recently, and the owner of the stage was a young man named Shen Luo.
This stage was exceedingly bizarre; it did not put on plays during the day, nor did it extinguish its lights at night, acting with the utmost ostentation.
Moreover, the owner of this stage, Shen Luo, was exceptionally mysterious, never showing his face by day and consistently failing to emerge from behind the stage curtains.
No one knew his identity, and no one dared to go behind the curtains to inspect.
After all, it was a contrivance that had materialized out of nowhere, as preposterous as things could get.
For a time, the people throughout Spirit City felt a double measure of curiosity toward this young man named Shen Luo.
"How did the investigation go? Speak."
Bibi Dong said in a severe voice.
At that moment inside the Pope Palace, the scout raised his head, the expression on his face filled with shock and more than a trace of the absurd.
His voice trembling, he said, "Your Holiness, not only did this Shen Luo show himself today, he even said... he even said..."
Bibi Dong frowned. "And what else did he say?"
"He even said he is the deity in the flesh! If Spirit Hall does not send people to prostrate themselves before him within one hour, he will visit divine retribution upon the entire Spirit City!"
Hearing this, Bibi Dong froze, then suddenly let out a laugh born of anger.
"Absurd! He is a deity? Then this emperor is the ancestor of deities!"
"He wants this emperor to send people to pay a visit within an hour? This emperor will deliberately send people to smash his stage precisely one hour later!"
The scout wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with trepidation, "However, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo have already gone in a huff, taking the guards with them."
Bibi Dong froze, then immediately said, "Investigate further, and report back."
"Understood!"
After the scout left, Bibi Dong stood up and paced back and forth within the hall, her expression laced with anger.
She truly did not know what kind of clown had popped out from who-knows-where, actually putting on an act as a deity right in front of her.
Listening to the bustling sounds of the common folk of Spirit City outside, Shen Luo, behind the stage curtains, furrowed his brow slightly.
For now, it seemed he had no choice but to follow Furina's suggestion and temporarily disguise himself as a deity of Douluo.
After all, since the system had erected a stage in Spirit City with such a high profile, Bibi Dong would sooner or later come looking for trouble.
And disguising himself as a deity could not only hoodwink the soul masters into bringing over their Soul Power to serve as capital for card draws, but it could also play a deterrent role in a short space of time.
Bibi Dong's side might send people over at any moment... Shen Luo guessed in his heart.
Speaking of his experiences, they truly felt just like a dream.
He had just finished the Fontaine storyline when his computer suddenly flashed with a white light, sweeping him away to the Douluo Continent.
He had even bound the Genshin Impact Character Cultivation System, which could use the Soul Power of the Douluo World to perform card draws, with one level of Soul Power permitting a ten-draw.
Logic dictated that binding the system would grant a beginner gift pack, and Shen Luo's gift pack was Constellation 1 Furina, though Furina's character level had already been elevated to Level 90.
As a beginner gift pack, Furina differed greatly from other characters who could be drawn; she could not only grant her abilities to Shen Luo for his use, but she could also accompany Shen Luo's side as an independent entity.
For Shen Luo, who had just finished grinding through the Fontaine storyline, seeing a real Furina appear right before him was a degree of joy that practically brought him to tears.
Therefore, the moment they met, he gave Furina a great big embrace and a kiss.
empirically proven, Fufu was flat as a board, and her shy little fists really hurt when she pounded people.
During these past few days of getting along with Furina, Shen Luo had also revealed the truth to his 2D girlfriend.
Upon learning that Shen Luo had actually obtained her through the method of card draws, Furina was extremely astonished.
And upon learning that Shen Luo urgently needed the Soul Power of this world as funding for card draws, the "clever" Fufu came up with a terrible idea.
That's right, it was to disguise herself as a deity, just like her.
"Shen Luo, Shen Luo, it looks like someone rather formidable is coming!"
Stealthily pulling back the curtain to inspect the outside, Furina trod in excited little steps and hastily waved her small hand toward Shen Luo.
Shen Luo stood up, the light filtering from beyond the curtain casting down upon his handsome face.
He asked, "Furina, are you ready to accompany me in acting the part of a deity?"
"Of course, I am a professional!"
Furina turned back, a smile blooming on her pretty, lovely countenance, while she simultaneously raised a thumb and gave Shen Luo a wink.
Professional? But I saw you secretly crying, you know...
Shen Luo said nothing, swapping to an indifferent expression as he pulled back the red curtain.
As for Furina, she followed behind with a faint smile on her face, the role she was playing being that of the deity lord Shen Luo's attendant, and naturally a deity in her own right as well.
"Coming out, coming out!"
"Whoa! What a handsome man and beautiful woman!"
"Too bad they're a pair of frauds. People from Spirit Hall are here. This should be a good show..."
Shen Luo was stunned too. He hadn't expected so many people to have gathered outside the stage to watch the commotion.
He'd only wanted to trick some high-level Soul Masters, not civilians and low-level Soul Masters. After all, what he needed was a sufficient amount of Soul Power.
Although the Douluo Continent had a low level of combat strength, it was still a world where might made right. Without a Martial Soul, he would struggle to survive.
Since he'd bound himself to this system, he could only bring Genshin Impact's whole approach to combat here.
So he needed to form enough teams and cultivate enough characters to strengthen his own combat power, become a powerful figure in the Douluo World, and gain a voice-and even...
Become a true god.
Conveniently, the Stardust granted by drawing cards could be used to buy all the upgrade materials directly from the shop, so he didn't need to grind anymore.
But first, he still had to obtain Soul Power from other people. Only Soul Power could be used to draw cards.
"You've seen the great deity. Why aren't you kneeling? Watch out, or divine punishment will descend!"
Furina put her hands on her hips and shouted as if she were angry.
She really could act... It was just that when she tried to look fierce, she wasn't very intimidating-she only looked cute.
Among the onlookers, Chrysanthemum Douluo, who had been sizing up the two onstage, let out a sneer.
"Heh. Why don't we all wait and see what this terrifying divine punishment is?"
Shen Luo replied coldly, "I've heard that the Douluo Continent is full of useless weaklings. I took pity on you and came to bestow blessings, but now that I've seen you, I'm truly disappointed."
Chrysanthemum Douluo clenched his fists with a series of cracks. Anger showed on his face. He'd planned to wait for Shen Luo to make a fool of himself, but who would've thought the other man would provoke him first?
"First Soul Skill, Chrysanthemum Blade!"
The aura of a Titled Douluo burst out in an instant. The crowd was horrified and scattered in every direction.
"Run! The Titled Douluo is about to attack!"
"That kid's done for!"
Furina was about to use her Elemental Skill, but Shen Luo stopped her with a look. As long as he was on this stage, he was invincible.
That was how the system had set it up.
Just as the surging Chrysanthemum Blades were about to hit Shen Luo, golden light suddenly rippled across the entire stage. All of it converged on Shen Luo's body and repelled Chrysanthemum Douluo's attack.
"Boom!"
The rebound sent Chrysanthemum Douluo flying, and his body carved a long trench into the ground.
The crowd stared, dumbfounded, and fell silent.
Ghost Douluo's mouth hung slightly open as he turned to look at the deep furrow Chrysanthemum Douluo had plowed with his backside.
He'd never seen Chrysanthemum Douluo in such a sorry state before.
