Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 413 Ready
In the last six months before returning to the Main God Space, Xu Feng used the scraps from making the 'Little Mount Sumeru' to create a large number of props with different functions.

What this guy lacks is the top-tier spiritual treasure; he can easily conjure up a whole bunch of slightly inferior equipment.

From small melee weapons and logistical supplies to large spaceships and factory mother machines, they have everything.

Any one of these sets could guide a nascent civilization into the interstellar age.

The specific effects of these items are not as great as the domains branched out from 'Little Mount Sumeru', but the large number of them makes the C-rank and D-rank side quests that the teammates have given up seem particularly valuable, making them willingly keep the remaining reward points.

After returning to the Main God Space.

Xu Feng did not immediately distribute the prepared equipment to his teammates.

Dreams have different depths.

After more than 20 years of practice, Xu Feng's "The Great Method of Attaining Enlightenment in Dreams" has become even more profound.

The most significant effect is that the time ratio between the dreams he creates and reality can become much larger.

The scenes experienced by people in dreams are closer to their perceived reality. Their level of understanding is not high enough that they cannot distinguish whether they are experiencing a dream or reality.

In the final days before entering Guilty Crown, Xu Feng once again led his teammates into the deep dreamscapes created by the Dream Proving Method, guiding them to tap into their potential within those dreams.

This boost can increase the survival rate of teammates.

In the East China Sea team, apart from the core four, the other members each have different talents.

Some people can reveal most of their potential in just two or three dreams.

These people still have a chance to become stronger, but it will take a long time.

Moreover, the potential of those teammates is not in combat. Some are good at cooking, some are good at painting, some have excellent speaking skills... In a normal reincarnation team, these special talents would be very useful, but in the East Sea team, they are not very meaningful.

Some people made great progress; even with only one day left in the God Space, three people were still rapidly improving.

In order to tap into their most readily monetizable potential, Xu Feng took these three teammates back to the Starship Troopers world for several months of extra training.

Among them, Songgang Renxiao has the best qualifications.

The boy really liked the physique of the Giant of Light.

The right personality meets a compatible bloodline, and this mutual attraction allows the boy to grow stronger rapidly.

The stone statue that Xu Feng prepared for Matsuoka Jinxiao was not that of Ultraman Tiga, who was extremely idealistic. There was no such being with an unknown upper limit in that reincarnation world.

He was just some unknown ancient giant in the Ultraman Tiga universe.

However, after training for a long time, the boy showed a tendency to transform into Ultraman Tiga.

In each cycle of the dream, the giant of light, whose data is inherently limited, always manages to unleash power far exceeding its base stats, and it grows stronger with each passing dream.

There was no rejection whatsoever between the energy of the Giant of Light and Buddhist techniques.

This allows Matsuoka Jintaka to continuously increase his base stats in his dreams.

In his dream, the boy experienced the storylines of Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Dyna, and Ultraman Gaia, fighting against monsters from tokusatsu series and defeating hundreds of monsters along the way.

Aside from Gatanothor, Gransphia, and Zog... these three monsters are simply too powerful; without the protagonist's plot armor, the chances of defeating them are extremely slim.

All the other monsters were defeated by Matsuoka Jintaka.

The boy's toughest battle was destroying Zijra.

This monster itself is not very strong, but fighting it requires enduring a huge debuff, and the humans in the dream will turn around and help Zijera.

Fighting Zijra is like fighting the entire world.

The boy didn't need overwhelming combat power to clear this level, but he did need an extremely strong will. He perfectly demonstrated his potential in that battle.

During the five years that the Tokai team completed the Starship Troopers mission, Matsuoka Jintaka had already unlocked the second-tier gene lock in battles against the Zerg.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he now only needs a real life-or-death experience to unlock the third-tier gene lock.

Because of Matsuoka Jintaka's outstanding performance, Hsu Feng even prepared special auxiliary props for him.

A bracelet that looks like an oversized version of the One Ring.

The bracelet's internal space integrates the Magus power system and the photogene converter.

—In the original story, after Tiga was defeated by Gatanothor, the GUTS team prepared to revive Tiga using this equipment, but unfortunately, Gatanothor thwarted their plan.

In this enhanced set of equipment, the original light energy is compressed by the One Ring, resulting in an extremely fast replenishment speed and efficiency.

This allows Matsuoka Jinxiao to always be at full capacity.

Moreover, the One Ring's power of control will make it easier for the boy to receive 'off-field assistance'.

Mitarai Muneto's aptitude is slightly inferior to Matsuoka Jintaka's, but his potential for growth seems even greater.

The ordinary Ebloon cells and Zilda gas underwent continuous transformation within his body, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, with the cells becoming more perfect with each transformation.

After learning of Mitarai's talent in this area, Xu Feng even taught him the "Rebirth Technique of Withering and Flourishing" that he had exchanged for in order to create relics.

This makes the cells in Mitarai's body transform at a faster rate.

However, this reincarnator has a gentle and Buddhist-like personality and is not in a hurry to become stronger.

They simply adapted silently to the dangers in their dreams.

This made his growth rate slower than that of Matsuoka Jintaka.

Rin Minamino also spent some time in the Starship Troopers world, but her talent was far inferior to the previous two.

However, this reincarnator had spent a long time in the Main God Space and was more familiar with the survival rules of the reincarnation world.

In the real world, she lacks some courage.

Fear of death is human nature.

In the dream world where death is not an option, she fought with tremendous determination.

Besides these three, Masao Koizumi also has quite good talent.

However, Xu Feng did not spend reward points to further develop this person's talent.

This 'disrespectful captain' reincarnator was first brainwashed into an idiot by Xiangzi's mental power. After Xu Feng strengthened the "Dream Enlightenment Technique", he converted this reincarnator again.

After losing their sense of self, this person's chances of survival are actually much higher than others, so there's no need to waste reward points.

The main god space.

"There are still twenty hours left before we enter the next cycle of reincarnation. Each person will receive a set of these equipment. With the remaining time, we should be able to master these weapons."

Xu Feng, after slightly adjusting the props he had made based on his teammates' talents and strengths, distributed them one by one to the reincarnators and creators of the East China Sea team.

—Aside from the priestess's sister, none of the people created by the East Blue Team were redeemed.

Including Tifa and Ice.

They will still have to enter the cycle of reincarnation together.

Xu Feng only briefly mentioned the other props, but he spent a long time explaining the core protective props.

The initial design of the "Gate" of "Little Mount Sumeru" was a watch exactly like the main god's watch. After recognizing its owner, it could change its design according to the user's wishes. For example, the set that Xu Feng gave to Tifa became a necklace.

After Xiangzi learned about the function of this prop.

After a moment's thought, she turned it into a ring and wore it on her ring finger. Mei, on the other hand, turned it into a shrine maiden's top, folded it in her hand, and glanced casually at 'God'.

The implication, however, was undisguised.

She was waiting for the right space and time to change into this gorgeous yet simple outfit.

However, her little action reminded another teammate.

Zhao Yingkong operated for a moment.

Her entire figure changed. From an ordinary person's perspective, she looked like a handsome young man whose gender was hard to discern, but from the perspective of the spacetime in which Mount Sumeru was located, her devilish figure was exceptionally captivating.

A true four-dimensional chest wrap.

"I don't like other people's opinions..."

That evening, Zhao Yingkong said, "Some scenery is enough for you to appreciate alone."

That night, Xu Feng and the assassin girl didn't sleep a wink.

Besides the two of them, there were many other reincarnators from the East China Sea team who stayed up all night.

Cough cough, the main reason is that after these people slept for a long time using the "Great Method of Enlightenment in Dreams," they had too much energy to fall asleep again.

"The captain truly deserves to be called the strongest in the cycle of reincarnation. Many of the items from the main gods cannot compare to the magical treasures he creates."

Maple Leaf Reihiko and Amatsuki Yuuki gathered around Minamino Rin, who was more senior, to study the magical artifact they had just acquired.

The more they studied them, the more they realized the power of these magical artifacts.

Then, the envy and jealousy in my heart become even stronger.

This envy and jealousy weren't directed at the captain; the difference in strength was too great. These people looked at Xu Feng as if he were a god, and all that remained was awe... Some respected him more, while others feared him more.

They envied the three girls who had won the captain's favor.

These people knew very well that the three of them received more benefits. The reincarnators of the East Sea team would gain different levels of strength depending on the captain's level of favor.

Maple Leaf Reihiko leaned slightly towards Minamino Rin and urged, "Miss Zhao actually entered the Samsara World later than you, right? If you had been more proactive back then, your status probably wouldn't be any worse than Miss Zhao's."

"Yes."

Tengetsu Yukage chimed in, "Miss Zhao is much stronger than us now. However, if Captain gives us the same help, we might be even stronger than she is now."

Nan Yelin shifted her gaze from the magical artifact that had transformed into a bracelet and glanced at her two teammates.

She knew exactly what the two men were thinking.

They wanted to become the captain's wife, but worried that they weren't charming enough and might anger the captain, so they encouraged her, their senior, to test the waters.

This idea…

Stupid!

"The talent gap between people is huge."

Minamino Rin said calmly, "Even if we can obtain more resources than Miss Sakura, it is impossible for us to become as strong as Miss Sakura."

“I know about the lives of Sato and the others after they left the God Space, and it can definitely be called a perfect life.”

"I advise you to be more discreet and not try to fight for things that are hopeless, lest you lose even the benefits that you are sure to get."

"A hopeless situation? Heh..."

Maple Leaf Reihiko smiled slightly: "Minamino-senpai, how about we make a bet? Do you think Captain will make a move against that Yuzuriha Inori in the next reincarnation world?"

"So what if it happens?"

"If even characters in the story can do it, why can't we?!"

Nan Yelin couldn't help but smile sarcastically, picked up her teacup and said, "Before entering the next cycle of reincarnation, you two would better study the plot a bit more."

Another reason she didn't mention was: precisely because she was a reincarnator, it was forbidden!
During the time that Rin Minamino returned to Starship Troopers, she also set aside some time to study the plot of Guilty Crown.

The more she studied it, the clearer it became for her.

In that cycle of reincarnation, the combat power depicted in the anime was indeed very limited, but the deeper storylines and the levels of power were extremely exaggerated.

If you underestimate your enemy, the probability of dying in that world will be very high.

As for that Yuzuriha Inori... she's not that simple at all!
After the two juniors left, Nan Yelin focused all her attention on the special bracelet again.

"I still have over 24,000 reward points. The captain will never let me die so easily... If nothing unexpected happens, this piece of equipment will be the key to my survival in the next match!"

The twelve reincarnators of the East Sea team had different feelings on this final day.

Some people are enjoying life to the fullest.

Some are looking forward to the next round of gains.

Some people are uneasy about the unknown dangers.

…………

No matter what they think, the time for the reincarnators to enter the cycle of reincarnation will inevitably come.

The supreme deity once again shone with light.

Before the light had even faded, Xu Feng raised his hand.

"Survive for 240 days... That's all the mission is? Tsk, the easier the mission seems, the more terrifying the dangers in the cycle of reincarnation are!"

The countdown on the black watch ticked slowly.

Compared to most quick and easy reincarnation missions, this mission for the East Sea Team is very long. Even with extremely strong abilities, they would need to stay in this world for such a long time to complete the mission.

Such a long-term survival mission is naturally quite difficult.

Imagine if you entered a time loop like in "Final Destination," and the God's task was to survive for 240 days instead of 7. What kind of danger would the God arrange for you in the final period?
The weaker reincarnation teams would probably fall into despair the moment they see that kind of mission.

As for whether the difficulty of Guilty Crown can be compared to Final Destination?
Although the main god's protective shield has not yet been activated and the story of the reincarnation world has not yet truly begun, Xu Feng has already learned some information from the interplay between the main god's protective shield and the external environment.

Only higher, never lower!

"240 days..."

After waking up, Xiangzi walked to the vicinity of the protective shield: "Judging from the scenery outside, it's late spring now. So, we'll probably have to stay until next year, at least until Christmas..."

Christmas is a very special time in Guilty Crown.

Ten years before the story begins, the protagonist's older sister, Mana Ouma, was chosen as the Eve by the Apocalypse Virus. On Christmas Day, the Apocalypse Virus went out of control. Thanks to the sacrifice of the prequel protagonist, Skrull, the Apocalypse Virus was prevented from spreading to the whole world.

In the anime's ending, on the same date, Shu Ouma and Inori Yuzuriha prevented the resurrected Mana Ouma from triggering the Fourth Apocalypse.

"Theoretically speaking, as long as we don't change the plot, we just need to wait for Shu Ouma to save the world. However, the God of War certainly won't give us such an easy task."

Xiangzi observed the surrounding environment.

The East Blue team landed in a somewhat dilapidated abandoned auditorium, which she guessed was the place where Ouma Shu and Yuzuriha Inori first met.

A group of extraterrestrial visitors suddenly arrives at this crucial point in the plot... The appearance of reincarnators is already changing the story!

"The birth of a king is probably not so easy!"
