Chapter 1604: Chapter 859: Taboo Prophecy_2
Made Jinguji Maki cry!
At this moment, little Maki’s arms and legs are covered with custom sandbags, sitting in the tent, crying with tears and snot all over. Beside her, Red Leaf Hunter, Shadow Girl, and Hannya kneel, flustered, helping wipe her tears while Fire Fox curls next to her feet keeping them warm.
Li Tongyun lifted the tent flap and walked in. She said to Red Leaf Hunter and Shadow Girl: "You two go keep watch outside. Let me know if anyone approaches our camp. Remember, it’s a critical time now; we can’t miss any anomalies."
In reality, the strongest in this group is no longer Li Tongyun, but Jinguji Maki.
She has reached C-Class, and can summon spirits, which increased from three to 24. Qing Chen is having a hard time keeping up with her pace of unlocking ’spirit summoning spots’...
Now, Red Leaf Hunter, Mirage Tower, Shadow Girl, Fire Fox, Mountain Child, Hannya, Great Tengu, Shuten-doji, Fei Touman, Bulobulo, White Tiger... have all been successfully summoned by little Maki.
Although limited by her level, the spirit ranks are only C-Class, but just these C-Class spirits alone can easily defeat any B-Class Expert.
If she levels up again, carrying 48 B-Class spirits, even an A-Class would have to turn tail and flee.
At this moment, Li Tongyun stuffed the Taboo ACE-119 tissue box into the little girl’s arms: "Stop crying, stop crying. Although it’s a bit tough, we can watch the sunset here tomorrow evening. Besides, your master visited here recently; he climbed to the summit swiftly. Those Sherpas all know him and regard him as a God. If the Sherpas knew that the God’s disciple was a crybaby, how would people view your master?"
"Hic!" Jinguji Maki forcefully held back her tears: "Then I won’t cry."
"That’s more like it," Li Tongyun smiled and said.
Jinguji Maki took out a tissue and wiped her tears: "But why doesn’t Master join us? I miss him so much."
Li Tongyun comforted: "Your master has more important things to do... wait, give me that tissue in your hand!"
As she spoke, she took the tissue from Jinguji Maki’s hand, only to see the tear-stained tissue bore the words: North Star points south, those with light flowing in their eyes are to be consumed by the light, someone stealthily betrays their ideals, stepping towards the abyss.
Xiao Tongyun was stunned; this wasn’t the first prophecy little Maki had drawn.
Last time, this tissue box successfully predicted her being harshly scolded by her mother Jiang Xue.
Now, the prophecy appeared again, but Li Tongyun couldn’t immediately understand what this prophecy referred to!
Is the person with light flowing in his eyes... Qing Chen brother?
...
...
Qing Chen lay in his single room’s dormitory silently gazing at the snowy mountains outside the floor-to-ceiling window, life seemed to slow down again.
No one here that he knew, as though he started another solo journey, training.
He distanced himself from the noisy world, walking his own solitary path.
But life can’t always be like this.
Ping, a text message came in, it’s from Li Tongyun.
Qing Chen contemplated seriously after reading...
"North Star points south, those with light flowing in their eyes are to be consumed by the light, someone stealthily betrays their ideals, stepping towards the abyss."
All the prophecies given by the tissue box relate to little Maki, the host; so if the person with light in their eyes is him, then what would the light that consumes him be?
The one silently betraying their ideal... Who is it?
Qing Chen formed a hypothesis in his mind but currently can’t prepare anything preemptively; he can only observe, and respond as circumstances dictate.
He picked up his phone and created a group chat, pulling Hu Xiaoniu, Chen Zhuoqu, Hu Jingyi, Li Tongyun, Luo Wanya, Xiao Qi, Xiao San, Zard, Da Yu... all into one group, meticulously coordinating the future plans.
He had already discovered a gap in the Roosevelt Kingdom; with just a bit more leverage, maybe he could tear this gap open.
But just then, someone opened his room door.
The Caucasian Time Traveler from the training base was very forward; he poked his head inside, saw Qing Chen playing with his phone, and said with a cheerful smile: "You couldn’t sleep either? How about coming to the living room for a chat? We just came back from the Inner World and have lots of fresh news. Plus, we brought genetic potion; care to check it out?"
Qing Chen replied flatly: "No thank you, please close the door."
The Caucasian Time Traveler shrugged his shoulders: "Alright, suit yourself."
The noise gradually increased in the living room outside.
Over thirty trainees gathered with warm coffee, waiting to hear the Time Traveler’s stories, then purchase the genetic potion.
Qing Chen listened to them talking about genetic sequence numbers, QQSD-001, QQSE-001, all of which are circulation potions for ordinary people to upgrade to F-Class Genetic Warriors, but the issue is these Time Travelers didn’t tell the students that these two genetic potions are known for the largest side effects within the Roosevelt Kingdom.
The former, after injection, grows insect-like backward spines on the legs, while the latter, after injection, might develop insect-like compound eyes.
The Eastern Continent Federation pursues minimizing genetic potion side effects, so production has been low; on the West Continent, it’s more about going wild, with no taboos.
And in this training base, the trainees daring to challenge wing suit flying are all seeking thrills in life; they are very willing to experience the different life brought by genetic potions.
