Romance Game: Embrace of the Inhuman

Chapter 309 Seeking Wonders Association


For Lin Qianxuan, comprehending a Dao Principle itself poses no difficulty.

But for Peiya, who is deeply entangled in cycles of reincarnation, it requires a bit more effort.

As time passed bit by bit, a special "momentum" began to rise within Peiya.

This momentum is the embodiment of the Dao Principle.

It is the external manifestation of one's will directly interfering with the rules of heaven and earth.

Under the erosion of time, Peiya's momentum gradually became complete.

Until one moment, she naturally took that step.

She stood up, looked at Lin Qianxuan, and said, "Master... I did it."

"Mm." Lin Qianxuan nodded calmly and said, "Don't use weapons, try directly against me."

Peiya didn't hesitate either. After nodding, she swung her palm like a sword directly at Lin Qianxuan's head.

Her ability to utilize energy has greatly improved.

Compared to before, there was at least several dozen times the increase in intensity.

Moreover, in that attack, there lay the principles manifesting her personal will.

Lin Qianxuan gently touched the side of her palm with two fingers, easily stopping the attack and precisely dissolving all its momentum into nothingness.

"You did very well." Lin Qianxuan said with a smile as he patted her head.

Teaching should not be overly strict; appropriate encouragement can have a better effect.

Peiya was quite pleased, as her little tail started to wag again.

She wasn't good with words and, facing such a situation, could only look down at the floor blushing.

"Peiya, you're amazing!" the little one flew over and said, "You've really become a Legend!"

In just one month, going from an intern to a Legend.

Even in the Tower of Truth, overflowing with wondrous items, this was a rare feat.

Lin Qianxuan, accustomed to the manifestation of the Dao Fruit, and Peiya, lacking in common sense.

Only the little artificial intelligence had some understanding of what it represented.

"Let's go, have fun for a day, and tomorrow we'll head to the Seeking Wonders Association," Lin Qianxuan said.

After a month of hard cultivation, Lin Qianxuan also planned to let Peiya relax a bit and take the chance to build some favorability in the narrative.

He took Peiya out for half a day of shopping, bought her some decorative items and clothes, along with some toys she was curious about, and spent another half day enjoying themselves at amusement venues.

Thanks to the complex technology tree within the Tower of Truth, the amusement facilities here were also numerous and diverse.

They even had virtual reality technology.

However, the realism was limited, and Lin Qianxuan could spot many flaws.

But Peiya was having a great time.

After entering the time loop, she hadn't seen much by way of entertainment.

In the Box Country, she wasn't exactly welcomed, and merely striving to survive was exhausting. She was indeed lacking in entertainment.

After playing with her for a while, Lin Qianxuan was drawn to a fishing venue.

There seemed to be a pool isolated from spirit and various technological detections, with many prizes from the organizer below.

It cost money to fish inside, similar to a claw machine game.

"Is it really possible to fish in such a place?"

Having long been unable to fish in the game without the Dao Fruit of the fishing rod, Lin Qianxuan felt a craving stirring and immediately sat down here with Peiya.

Peiya held the fishing pole with curiosity, looking at Lin Qianxuan as if she had just met him for the first time.

In Peiya's mind, Lin Qianxuan was mature and reliable, seemingly unfazed by anything in the world, never showing excessive joy or distaste for any matter.

Until now, she realized that Lin Qianxuan also had things he enjoys.

Though the vendor adjusted the odds for catching prizes, causing Lin Qianxuan to miss the hook often, he remained enthusiastic and even began competing with Peiya and the little one.

The little drone's frame wasn't big, allowing it to hang only one fishing line to catch fish.

But its strength was considerable, as it managed to haul up big prizes and used its fishing skills effectively.

They continued playing until late at night before ending their fishing session and leaving the amusement area, heading back to their cozy little house.

"Peiya, good night," Lin Qianxuan said to Peiya.

"Good night, Master," Peiya replied.

Then she closed the door, hopped directly onto the bed in two or three steps, and rolled around while hugging the pillow.

She seemed to have never been this happy before.

Carefully taking out her diary, she began writing in it.

"Peiya, what are you writing?"

The little one flew over, curious to see.

"No peeking," Peiya said, covering the diary.

"Not even me?" The little one asked, puzzled.

"Yes, yes, it's my heartfelt thoughts, so no one can see it," Peiya nodded.

"Then I won't look..."

The little one said and, seeing Peiya relax for a moment, rushed over, grabbed the diary, and took a look.

"Peiya, you want to be with Mr. Lin..."

"Little one!"

.....

The commotion in the room prompted Lin Qianxuan to reflect.

The Daughters of Destiny he encountered before never had a personality as normal as Peiya's.

She was full of girlishness, could feel shy, and would be happy for a long time over small gifts, and would even write a girlish diary.

Chen Long'Er didn't have such a personality.

Lin Qianxuan never experienced any shyness emotion from her.

Gongsun Yue, who had a slightly girlish personality, had also experienced many things and did not have much of a little girl demeanor.

Setting aside these distractions, Lin Qianxuan continued to focus on the light orb of extraordinary objects in his hand.

He felt as if he somewhat understood the meaning of achieving enlightenment.

Currently, he only opened a Gate of Infinity when using the Dao Fruit.

Achieving enlightenment is about opening that Gate of Infinity completely.

Forever residing under the state of the Gate of Infinity.

Therefore, blindly piling up attributes is meaningless.

Boundless and infinite, that is the hallmark of enlightenment.

"Soon, it's soon," Lin Qianxuan murmured.

The step he was about to take was no longer distant.

...

The next day, Lin Qianxuan and Peiya took a magic airship to the headquarters of the Seeking Wonders Association.

The flight speed of the magic airship was not inferior to many other vehicles.

The magic array patterns engraved on it could greatly reduce air resistance, combined with the antimatter engine that significantly boosted thrust, when flying at full strength, it could even achieve thousands of times the speed of sound.

Yes, an antimatter engine!

Besides the antimatter engine, there was also something called a dark energy reactor on board.

They all came from different civilizations and technologies.

The Abyss Ruins itself was formed by the convergence of numerous shattered time-spaces, like a grand hodgepodge.

Somewhat similar to Earth, which is connected to many worlds.

The rules of those worlds could all be applied here.

Soon, they arrived at the headquarters of the Seeking Wonders Association.

Or rather, a city.

The Seeking Wonders Association had built a vast city in a desolate area within the Tower of Truth, where each scholar had their own private research area.

Due to the extraordinary nature of the objects, their research sometimes had a considerably exaggerated range of impact.

"Hey, there's actually a quantum network here," Xiao Ke suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

A map was projected from the watch Lin Qianxuan was wearing, and he pointed to a location on it, "The Seeking Wonders Association prohibits flying, so we can only use the teleportation gate here to go to the interview center."

Then, they arrived at a teleportation gate of the Seeking Wonders Association.

Its appearance was like an over five-meter-tall oval golden-framed mirror, with a pitch-black interior.

In front of Lin Qianxuan, others were also using the teleportation gate.

After adjusting the parameters, the dark mirror surface directly transformed into the corresponding scenery, and he stepped through and vanished behind the gate.

Soon, the teleportation gate returned to its pitch-black state.

As Lin Qianxuan approached, the Dao Fruit of [Artifact] transmitted information; this teleportation gate was indeed an extraordinary object.

[Heart's Desire Space Mirror: A mirror that can reach any location. [Cross at Will] (Note: It's best not to attempt to go to some strange places.)]

[Cross at Will: Allows crossing through the mirror to any desired destination. [Cost: After use, there will be some dizziness for ten seconds.]

A cost of ten seconds of dizziness.

This is almost tantamount to no cost at all.

The side effects of motion sickness are much greater than this.

Touching the mirror with his hand, Lin Qianxuan focused his thoughts, and the mirror automatically displayed the place he wished to go.

"Let's go," Lin Qianxuan said.

Then he took the first step and crossed out.

Peiya and Xiao Ke followed closely behind.

There was almost no sensation of traversing space, as if the world beyond the door was just the same as here, and thus Lin Qianxuan and the others crossed to a place that was in front of a building called [recruitment center].

A slight dizziness in the head.

The intensity was not high but could not be dispelled by normal means.

Just like forcibly adding a negative buff.

Lin Qianxuan held an iron bead in his palm, casually imbuing it with a positive attribute that dispels dizziness for the user.

In a flash of light, his state instantly returned to normal.

Peiya, having just crossed over, grabbed Lin Qianxuan's arm in a dizzy state, as if unable to discern direction after spinning in circles many times.

"Here you go."

Lin Qianxuan handed the iron bead to Peiya, who instantly returned to normal upon grasping it.

"Thank you, teacher."

Xiao Ke, on the other hand, showed no reaction.

Its [State Constant] attribute's conceptual index was higher, allowing it to ignore the dizziness cost.

Soon thereafter, Lin Qianxuan and his companions stepped into the place called the recruitment center.

Inside, the space suddenly expanded quite a bit, appearing much more expansive than it looked from outside.

All around were piled various objects of differing styles, visibly originating from differing civilizations.

"Please wait a moment, I'm coming....."

Upon hearing a voice, a door in the corner opened, and a blond young man wearing glasses, dressed in a white robe, and holding something resembling a tablet, emerged.

"My name is Martin Cook, you are the ones here for the membership interview, right?" Martin said while looking at the information on the tablet.

Lin Qianxuan and his companions had scheduled in advance.

"That's us," Lin Qianxuan replied.

"Please refrain from any excessive movements, I need to verify some information."

Martin operated the tablet, and a beam of light shot out, quickly scanning over Lin Qianxuan and Peiya.

After completing this, he casually took out two contracts resembling parchment and a feather pen, saying, "Yes, the data is normal, meeting the recruitment requirements. Please sign, then take your membership cards, do your best not to lose them. Although there is identity recognition within the city, outside it, you'll rely on your membership card to confirm your identity. Job content can also be consulted and conducted through the membership card. It is advisable to first take a good look at the membership rules...."
