Chapter 1062 Quality Projection

Just as his colleagues never understood why a rookie inspector who had only been in office for four years could advance so rapidly and deal with troubles that other inspectors might not encounter even once in a hundred years, and even had a mobile disaster aura, causing explosions wherever he went, even involving a demigod (now it's a true god), Hao Ren could never understand why Raven 12345, as a world's goddess, could be so unreliable. She even dug out a cheap item from the warehouse and showed off to him, bragging about it with self-satisfaction – for a deity to be so idle, Hao Ren felt he would never believe her claim of being busy with a myriad of affairs in his life…

But regardless, these metal rings were indeed very useful.

According to Raven 12345, this thing was used to generate remote mass projections, and Hao Ren had actually seen mass projections before. In his understanding, a mass projection was a remote interaction interface with a physical body, capable of transmitting perception and interacting with the environment. Its essence was a kind of image transmission, but the black technology of the Xi Ling pantheon in the field of information manipulation greatly expanded the "content" of this transmission, achieving an effect close to an avatar, but with far less information interference than any avatar could produce – and this was one of the key conditions for Leah to "come" to the surface world through the Wall of Reality.

In addition to reducing information interference, another condition hindering Leah from crossing the Wall of Reality was the issue of divinity, and this problem could also be solved through mass projection, because the pair of rings Raven 12345 found had an information filtering function.

It could filter out Leah's divinity during the transmission of the mass projection – a function that even Hao Ren's information link between the Dream Plane and the surface world didn't have, so its role was irreplaceable.

In short, the first function of the rings was to reduce the signal radius, and the second was to filter out signal redundancy.

"You have to remind Leah that after the mass projection is activated, she'll be essentially multitasking, similar to suddenly experiencing schizophrenia. She has to adapt and accurately grasp which one is her main body – although we have a big shot in the Xi Ling pantheon who has cultivated the divine skill of opening two million mass projections and wandering around the void without going crazy, for people who haven't been exposed to this kind of thing, the feeling of 'split personality' is still difficult to master," Raven 12345 entered into a verbose teaching mode again, imparting the usage of the bracelet while reminding him of its side effects. "In addition, although it can allow Leah to 'enter' the surface world in the form of a mass projection, there are actually restrictions. First, her mass projection can only move within the vicinity of the bracelet. Second, each connection cannot exceed six hours, after which it must cool down for at least six hours to allow the Wall of Reality to recover. Finally… you better not let anyone else touch this thing, especially those little fairies you mentioned, they're too troublesome."

Hao Ren nodded: "The last two aren't big problems, but this schizophrenia thing… it sounds so mysterious. Can Leah adapt?"

Raven 12345 waved her hand: "It's okay, don't worry, she's not like she hasn't split before. The Goddess of Creation has experience in this area."

Hao Ren thought about it, and felt that Leah's previous split personality situation should be different from mass projection…

But he had great confidence in the mental strength of a god, and thought that even if she was a bit unaccustomed to it at first, Leah would be able to quickly grasp the usage rules of mass projection, so he didn't have any more questions.

Hao Ren planned to hand over this useful little device to the Goddess of Creation as soon as possible, but he had just left the Dream Plane and hadn't had a good look at home yet, so he wasn't in a hurry and instead teleported back home with Vivian first.

"I wonder if that stupid cat has broken my game console…" Before stepping into the teleportation beam, Hao Ren said worriedly, "That thing can always rummage out the things I hide, and then it's a disaster. When it was just a cat, it would just steal food and gnaw on a few books, but now it's learned to open doors by itself, and can even rummage out things in the warehouse… Sigh, I've never seen a cat more troublesome than her."

Vivian comforted him from the side: "Don't worry, Gun is actually quite sensible, she won't break things casually, and Lily is watching her too."

Hao Ren glared as soon as he heard that: "You're letting a husky who has a family tradition of demolishing homes watch a cat to make sure it doesn't demolish the home?"

Vivian: "...That's true."

Just like that, while chatting idly, the two walked into the teleportation gate leading home. The light and shadow in front of them swayed for a while, and in an instant, the scenery of the Heavenly Paradise mansion turned into the familiar living room of Hao's family house.

As soon as Hao Ren entered the house, he saw Gun had found a photo of him from his college days from somewhere. At this moment, the cat girl was placing the photo on the coffee table with a straight face, and in front of the photo were his handheld game console and a bag of shrimp crackers.

After placing them, the cat girl started bowing to the photo, while chanting something…

Hao Ren: "...?" Vivian: "...?"

"Gun, what are you doing?" Feeling that he really couldn't understand this cat's train of thought, Hao Ren finally couldn't help but call out to her from behind.

The cat girl jumped half a meter high as soon as she heard the voice, her tail standing up like an iron rod with a "bang". Then, she cowered and turned her head to look at Hao Ren, looking at him for several seconds before "meow-ing," cautiously coming over and circling around Hao Ren twice, even sticking her head out to sniff carefully.

Hao Ren was even more confused: "So what exactly are you…"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the cat girl suddenly retreat again, but the ghost-like expression from before was gone. She even seemed quite excited, jumping around and loudly exclaiming: "I just cast a spell and resurrected the landlord again!!"

Hao Ren felt like he was about to go crazy, turning his head to look at Vivian with a face about to break down: "Mom, I can't understand what this cat is doing, what do I do! At least one of us is crazy, right?"

Vivian also had a confused look: "...Maybe we suddenly came over and suddenly teleported away, and it scared Gun?"

At this time, the door leading to the kitchen suddenly opened, and Nangong Sanba and May walked out from inside with aprons on. They had come out after hearing the commotion in the living room. Sanba revealed a dawning expression after seeing Hao Ren: "Oh, so you really are the landlord, no wonder Gun suddenly started yelling…"

Hao Ren casually patted the cat girl's head while walking towards the sofa: "This thing probably ate something wrong again, take her to brush her teeth before dinner."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a surprised and familiar voice suddenly ring out from the direction of the kitchen door: "Lord Vivian!!"

Then he and Vivian looked up at the same time – and were shocked to see a small version of Vivian standing at the kitchen door.

Hespera.

The little bat spirit had a look of surprise, and the way she looked at Vivian seemed like she was about to pounce on her in the next second, but fortunately this time she finally managed to restrain her death wish, abruptly stopping before pouncing, but her tone was still quite excited: "This time I sensed it! Sure enough, Lord Vivian, you're back!"

Vivian was also startled when she saw the little bat spirit. She instinctively wanted to slip away, but after thinking about it, she didn't move, and instead asked curiously: "Why did you suddenly come? Did you encounter trouble again?"

"It's not like I only come to you when I encounter trouble!" The little bat spirit smiled especially brightly. "The Shadow Council has finally stabilized, and Mimir has also secured his position. I finally have a few days off again, so I came to play with you… Um, you won't drive me away, will you?"

If it were the Vivian of the past, she would have already hid before Hespera could finish her sentence, or urged the little bat spirit to quickly return to the sanctuary and not venture out, but the series of events that had happened before – especially the journey back in time in the world of ten thousand years of memories – had ultimately changed some things. Vivian looked into the little bat spirit's eyes, noticed the other party's unease, and suddenly smiled: "Why would I drive you away? Now the demon hunters aren't hunting everywhere, and you're willing to come over, how could I stop you?"

Hespera was stunned for a moment, and then cheered.

"Wait, wait, it's fine to come and play, but let's talk about the rules first," Vivian quickly spoke to calm the little bat spirit down. "This isn't the Shadow Sanctuary where the supernatural roam everywhere. Don't cause trouble outside, and don't be too crazy at home. There are already two home wreckers here, I can't handle having another one."

"I know, I know," the little bat spirit nodded repeatedly. "It's not like I haven't been active in the human world before, and I've been here before, so I definitely know what to do."

Vivian nodded: "That's good. Then you stay here for a while, I'll go cook."

Nangong Sanba reminded her from the side: "That, I've already made the…"

But before he could finish speaking, he was pressed down by Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue: "Shut up!"

Vivian looked at the commotion in the living room and couldn't help but shake her head with a helpless smile, while taking the apron and hanging it on herself, saying: "It's okay, I'll just make something simple, just to add two dishes to celebrate the success of this 'expedition'. By the way, Hespera, do you want to eat pancakes?"

The little bat spirit was about to nod, but her expression changed: "No, no, I'm never eating pancakes again…"

"Look at you," Vivian put her hands on her hips and looked at her small version, "This time, even if you finish all the pancakes, I won't disappear!"

"Then I want some!" Hespera waved her hand vigorously and shouted, "I want sesame seeds! Lots of sesame seeds!"

Even after Vivian had entered the kitchen for a long time, Hespera was still sitting on the sofa in a daze, smiling foolishly. Hao Ren waved his hand in front of her eyes several times but couldn't wake her up. Finally, she woke up suddenly and moved closer to Hao Ren: "Hey, Lord Vivian said just now that she was celebrating the success of the expedition… what does that mean? Were you guys fighting a war when you were away a while ago?"

Before Hao Ren could say anything, Lily, who happened to be coming out of the room, heard the question and said casually: "Oh, we went and duked it out with a true god, and then beat them up and chased them away."

Hao Ren glared at the husky girl, who also looked back at him without changing her expression. After a moment, Hao Ren gave in: "You guys who write novels are amazing, you don't even blink when you're bragging."

Lily raised her neck: "Nonsense, this is documentary literature!"

Hao Ren thought about it and realized that Lily hadn't actually said a lie, but with a slight change in the way she spoke, the feeling in the listener's ears was completely different. One was being rubbed on the ground, and the other was rubbing someone on the ground – as expected, those who write novels are amazing.

As for Hespera, the little bat spirit's expression had frozen at Σ(°△°|||)……
