Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#734 - Spear of Longinus



#734 - Spear of Longinus

"So, even though I'm already in the Transformation Spirit stage, and could destroy the Earth with a single move, the system still judges me to be at the same level as that Unit-01 or something?"

Harboring such doubts, Liang Yue moved his mind and summoned his system task panel.

… …

"Main Quest: 《The Roots of the World Tree》."

"Quest Requirements: Obtain the remnants of the World Tree's roots, which have transformed into the Spear of Longinus, and find a way to revive them."

"Quest Rewards: 30,000 points, one additional chance for a lottery draw."

… …

"Side Quest: 《Fruit of Life》."

"Quest Requirements: Collect at least three Fruits of Life."

"Quest Rewards: 10,000 points. After completing the required number, each additional Fruit of Life collected will grant an additional 5,000 points."

… …

"Side Quest 2: 《Eternal Energy》."

"Quest Requirements: Through the principle of the S2 Engine, research the truth of perpetual motion machines."

"I seem to vaguely remember that, according to the worldview in this plane, the World Tree was eventually divided into three, right?"

"It seems that Adam and Lilith were conceived one after another, and then the remaining part became the Spear of Longinus."

"Obtaining the Spear of Longinus doesn't seem difficult, but if I want to revive the World Tree, I have to gather Adam and Lilith, and then insert… …"

"Hmm~ Unit-01 seems to work too."

"The most difficult task is actually the principle of that S2 Engine. This thing~"

"Di Di Di~"

Just as Liang Yue was standing in front of the window, bathed in the dazzling sunlight, constantly deducing the task at hand and the action plan in his mind, a notification sound suddenly came from the village communication platform.

Opening it, the call was actually a video call from Saya Takagi.

After the video was connected, the small faces of Saya-chan, teacher Shizuka, Yang Buhui, Nana, Hinata, Rachel, and others immediately appeared on the other side of the video.

"How is it? What kind of world did you go to this time?"

"Eh, the surrounding environment looks like a modern room."

"Ara~ It looks a bit like a hospital room!"

"Is it a modern society?"

"What's the power level like?"

"This place isn't that great actually, it's quite strange, and the environment isn't very suitable for cultivation. It's a bit similar to the world in disaster movies, with some strange things invading Earth.

In terms of abilities, it's still a bit interesting~"

Facing the chattering questions from the women on the other side, Liang Yue smiled softly and shared some of the background information about this world that he knew.

After about five or six minutes, he dispelled the women's desire to come and train together.

"… …So, in general, this is a science fiction world with some religious overtones. The highest combat power should be those biological robot mechas.

But it's basically a one-man show for the protagonists. The plot is a bit brain-burning, but there's not much point in training. It's a place with very little spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"So, you don't want us to go either?"

Saya-chan had obviously seen through this guy's true colors at this time, and said with a pout.

"Of course there's no problem with you coming over, but at most you'll just be helping to fight those few Apostles, collecting some Fruits of Life, and other than that, you'll probably just be wandering around.

I can easily complete this amount of work alone."

Upon seeing this, Liang Yue spread his hands helplessly and said indifferently.

"Then~ is there anything interesting in this world?"

Teacher Shizuka was still a little unwilling at this time, and continued to ask from the side.

"Anyway, it's a pretty depressing world. After all, the ATF reverse impact wave fifteen years ago directly wiped out half of the creatures and population on this world.

After that field disappeared, most of the seawater was dyed red by LCL."

After thinking for a while, Liang Yue gave such an answer.

"Sounds like it's really not that great… …"

… …

In short, under the strength-based dissuasion of a certain someone, the women on the other side temporarily dismissed their plans to come and train.

However, Takagi Saya was still a little unwilling.

So, she decided to continue maintaining this video call mode, intending to observe for a while longer.

Liang Yue didn't have any objections to this, anyway, everything he said was the truth~

"System, I want to draw a lottery!"

The so-called lottery refers to the monthly routine lottery permissions that he had accumulated in the second half of the real world.

A total of six times, plus a refresh for the new month after just passing midnight, with the start of the All Heavens Training.

That is a full seven times!

Soon, as Liang Yue's voice fell, the lottery turntable also appeared.

"Start~"

… …

"Stop!"

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the advanced wind-based spell 《Wind Sweeps Away the Clouds》 in this routine lottery draw. This spell comes from the Chinese Paladin world and is a spell passed down through generations of the Nüwa clan. Its power is considerable."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill 《Earth Spike Technique》 in this routine lottery draw. This skill comes from a certain game world and has been modified by the system.

Its power will increase with the skill level, the user's level, and the quality of the energy supply."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the martial arts technique 《Human King Seal》 in this routine lottery draw. This technique comes from the hands of a generation of emperors in a certain fantasy world.

Its power is considerable, and it can form a unique Human King battle intent when practiced deeply."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host, in this… … skill 《Energy Absorption Palm》. This skill comes from a certain game world and can be used to draw energy from relatively stable objects or media.

It is used to replenish the user's own energy consumption. Each use will consume a certain amount of mental power."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host, in this… … technique 《Five Elements Escape Technique》. This technique comes from a certain Xianxia world and is a relatively basic five elements escape technique."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host, in this… … a scroll recording the magic of 《Thunder Serpent Whip》. This technique comes from a certain magical world."

… …

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host, in this… … the Mazinger Z mecha. This mecha comes from a certain game world and can be manually operated or remotely controlled."

… …

"Hmm… looks like the luck is not bad~"

Looking at the results of this six-in-a-row draw, Liang Yue couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

Although he didn't draw the main cultivation technique corresponding to his current Transformation Spirit realm that he needed most, these six lottery draws greatly enriched his collection and heritage.

In addition, Liang Yue could naturally cultivate those 《Five Elements Escape Technique》, 《Human King Seal》, 《Wind Sweeps Away the Clouds》, and even 《Thunder Serpent Whip》 and other techniques.

After throwing all of this harvest to the women in the stronghold world, and giving the Mazinger Z mecha to Xiaowu for research, he continued to consider the next training issue.
