Chapter 428 Unending Bad News

This isn't just a matter of being nervous or not!

Although the image of a person with short hair made entirely of parchment popped into his head, looking rather trendy…

Fang Yue was absolutely not okay with it!

"You're screwing me over! Why didn't you say something sooner about something so important?"

[You didn't ask!! Besides, when would you ever have a choice when it comes to needing a rain-level strike?]

Fang Yue: …

What she said made so much sense that he was speechless.

If it was a problem he could solve himself, Fang Yue would definitely be reluctant to feed Yángpízhǐ silverstone, preferring to save it for more useful purposes.

But when Yángpízhǐ needed to take action, it was definitely a time when his current strength couldn't solve the problem at all, when there was no way out. So apart from the cost of certain death, Fang Yue seemed to have no choice but to accept it.

"If my brain becomes like this… will anything happen in reality?"

[If you never open synchronization again, then probably… nothing will happen, right?]

Right?

Fang Yue was very suspicious of Yángpízhǐ's tone.

In other words, as long as synchronization wasn't activated in reality, the effects in the game wouldn't affect reality.

But if synchronization was turned on, the two would synchronize data, and the changes in the brain would also affect reality.

Fang Yue's expression was ugly. He used to watch Qiu Dugu and the others use [Bizarre Items], losing this and losing that, fraught with danger. He had thought his Yángpízhǐ was so good, that he could use it to his heart's content without any cost.

But it turned out the real trap was waiting for him later!

This thing's real purpose wasn't prediction, but to eat things to charge up, and then use it as an Italian cannon, wasn't it?

Fang Yue had asked Lord Han, and silverstone was second only to goldstone!

That is to say, the bizarre object with silverstone would be just one step away from the rain-level!

Lord Han couldn't use silverstone because of his physical condition and strength; it was useless, so he casually gave it away.

That's why Fang Yue had the illusion that silverstone wasn't that high-level.

This also meant that… the [Bladeless Bizarre] back then was likely terrifyingly strong, but just not a match for Han, who was half a step into the rain-level.

And Yángpízhǐ could use a rain-level attack after devouring a stone like [Silverstone] that wasn't produced by the [Rain-level]!

This was eating grass and producing milk; the energy utilization rate and conversion rate were simply off the charts!

Sure enough, you're actually a turret-type bizarre object! Is it fun to disguise your true identity with precognitive abilities?

Fang Yue thought hatefully.

[I'm not! I didn't! Don't slander me!]

Fang Yue ignored Yángpízhǐ's triple denial.

Suppressing his thoughts, Fang Yue asked, "If I feed you [Goldstone] now, can you use a celestial-level strike?"

Yángpízhǐ immediately revealed an incredible textual emotion.

[Good heavens, among all my masters, you are definitely the least intelligent!]

"…Just talk, don't insult me."

[The great Lord Yángpízhǐ never insults people, but only states facts. The great Lord Yángpízhǐ is only a rain-level bizarre object. Unless I take it a step further and become a celestial-level bizarre object, the upper limit of my strength is a rain-level attack.]

[Of course, if you give me [Goldstone] to eat, I can definitely use a few more rain-level attacks, hee hee!]

Hee your ass!

Fang Yue's face darkened. A trash bizarre object like you only deserves to eat [Silverstone]!

[You you you! Why are you insulting me… no, silverstone is fine too, hehehe, I'm happy to have [Silverstone] to eat!]

This idiot!

Fang Yue was so depressed that he didn't know how to scold her.

"I won't give you any, I won't give you anything. Sealed, your rain-level strike is sealed. I'll never use it again!"

[Hmph! So angry! I use the power of ancient words, which also consumes a lot! You don't appreciate it! So angry!]

Be angry all you want; he wasn't going to use that move again anyway.

He declared that from now on, you are a precognitive tool… oh, tool-paper. Apart from precognitive abilities, I won't use any of your other abilities!

[Don't use it then! Anyway, I still have the power I split off from before, and I haven't absorbed it all yet.]

Split off?

Fang Yue was stunned, and then remembered that when he killed Elder Chen last time, Yángpízhǐ seemed to have said something about splitting it up. What did that mean?

[I won't tell you! In short, I need to go into a deep sleep for a while. The consumption of the power of ancient words is huge. After each use, I need a deep sleep for a period of time to replenish the consumed power. So don't call me; I'll tell you when I wake up!]

"Wait! I haven't finished asking my questions yet!"

[…Say.]

"At least tell me, what should I do to use your rain-level power without a price? Surely not every one of your masters has been made into a bizarre object by you, right?"

[It's very simple. As long as your strength is equal to or exceeds my level, you can naturally suppress my erosion and offset the cost of becoming a bizarre object.]

As she spoke, Yángpízhǐ seemed to really be exhausted to the extreme. After saying [Good night], she completely stopped moving.

Fang Yue called out twice in his heart, and after finding that Yángpízhǐ really didn't respond, he frowned in depression.

What Yángpízhǐ said was easy: as long as his strength was equal to or exceeded her level.

The problem was, you are a rain-level bizarre object; wouldn't that mean that to use the power of ancient words without a price, you would have to cultivate to the rain-level at least?

How long would it take to cultivate to that level!

Fang Yue felt depressed.

Moreover, the problem of the power of ancient words could be put aside for now.

They were about to set off for Qing Si County, and who knew how many dangers they would encounter along the way.

Yángpízhǐ was going into a deep sleep at this time. Without precognition and early warning, their safety was greatly reduced.

"Xiao Yue, what's wrong? Your face looks so strange."

"No, it's nothing."

Forcing a smile towards Lord Han, Fang Yue thought about how to act more safely without Yángpízhǐ's precognition.

But he couldn't help but think about the partial parchment-ification of his cerebral cortex, and he was extremely flustered.

Although according to Yángpízhǐ, nothing would happen in reality yet, he was now working as a civil servant in the Joint Association.

When there was a mission, could he just slack off?

And once he used his abilities, the effects in the game would be synchronized to reality…

Fang Yue's face became even more unsightly.

Waking up from this sleep, it was just continuous bad news.

The only good news seemed to be the system notifications from killing Elder Chen earlier.

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for killing [Elder of the Black Rain Tribe: Chen Gu]. Reward: Force +180 [Reached boundary limit, cannot be increased further], Unload Force +300 [Reached boundary limit, cannot be increased further], Lifespan +10 years."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for successful cultivation, increasing [Boundary Breakthrough Progress]: 100%."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for successful cultivation. [Boundary Breakthrough Progress] has reached 100%. Breaking through the boundary!"
