I am weak and friendly

Chapter 286 Tell me, does this count as flying?
Just as Tang Yiping thought he had hit the jackpot, he saw a pop-up notification from the [Survival Guide for the Weak]:

—【Standard Box No. 10】: "All phenomena vanish like bubbles." The Standard Box is a standard possible domain container, typically constructed by organisms such as 【Shadow Crevice】 that collect bubble space threshold surfaces and strictly adhere to standards, hence its other name, 【Bubble Box】. This container possesses some bubble space characteristics but lacks growth characteristics and cannot exist long-term. It is not recommended to store valuable items there. It can be purchased in the 【Shop】 for 500 points. (Used for 257 days, estimated remaining lifespan 17993 days)
Tang Yiping: "..."

Emmmm…

It turns out this thing is only worth 500 points.

However... Tang Yiping still felt he had hit the jackpot, after all, this thing was a spatial container that could compress space, something that definitely didn't exist on Earth.

Thank you, Charon, for the generous gift!

This delivery was totally worth it!

Wait, that's not right...

Tang Yiping frowned as he stared at the words "All phenomena vanish like bubbles" and "Possible domain container" in the prompt.

This doesn't seem to be the "compressed space" I understand.

"Stoka, what is a possible domain container?" Tang Yiping asked Stoka.

Stoka explained for a long time with "ooh-ooh-ooh," but Tang Yiping didn't understand at all.

He thought for a moment and then sent those words to Master Tang.

If you can't understand something no matter what you do, you can only trust that your dad understands you.

"Old Tang, Old Tang, what is a domain container?" he asked Master Tang.

After a while, Master Tang replied, "What? Never heard of it. It sounds like something about probability, like a container for probability clouds..."

Master Tang didn't really understand what it was, but it gave Tang Yiping some inspiration.

Tang Yiping looked at Master Tang's explanation, then at the words "All phenomena are but illusions," and suddenly his eyes widened.

The principle behind it lies in these few words!
Once anything that has a physical form or substance is put in, it will become a cloud of probability.

I understand now. This is the box where Schrödinger put his cat, right? It didn't actually contain his cane; it just "might" have contained it.

It may be inside, or it may not be inside.

However, the probability of this "possibility" is extremely high, so there is basically no "impossible" situation. This is the source of the stability of the [No. 10 standard container].

It doesn't actually have a fixed volume or size; it's just that the more impossible something is to fit inside it, the lower its stability becomes. If you try to cram something very large inside, it might disappear or turn into something else when you open it.

Having figured this out, Tang Yiping suddenly couldn't help but wonder, if the "possible domain container" made by imitating the principle of bubble space is like this, then... what is bubble space?
Tang Yiping pondered for a long time, countless thoughts swirling in his mind, but he couldn't quite grasp them all.

After all, this thing is too abstract.

But now is not the time to think about that. He can walk now, and he can finally do something!
Let's go out and have some fun!

He has been in a wheelchair for far too long!
"Stoka!" he said to Stoka, leaning on his cane, "Let's go, let's go out!"

Then, in a strange manner of "walking fast but slow," it walked towards the door.

After taking a few steps, he stopped and turned to ask Stoka, "Does this way of walking look strange?"

It's not just strange, it's absolutely bizarre!
Imagine a young man with a cane walking on a main street in a strange posture, like "moonwalking"—walking fast and slow, gliding close to the ground. Countless people would probably take out their phones to take pictures and post them on the internet.

Even the mask of "Tang Tongxue, whose birth chart indicates he's destined for obscurity and will never become famous" couldn't stop him from becoming a sensation.

"Looks like I'll have to wait until it gets dark before going out," Tang Yiping sighed.

Ah, good news, I can finally leave.

Bad news can only be shared where no one can see it.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to learn Lola's "Greenbelt Stealth Technique".

Lola's value is still increasing! Although he can't go out now, Tang Yiping is unwilling to give up the opportunity to walk. He walks around the house with the [Pillar Staff], tidying up this and cleaning that. Although walking takes more effort and he is already slightly lacking in physical strength, he has to sit down and rest after walking for a while, but he still enjoys it.

Finally, when it got dark outside, Tang Yiping could no longer contain himself. He put on his backpack, filled it with food and water, and assumed a posture as if he was about to embark on a long journey on foot.

“Let’s go, Stoka!” Tang Yiping said.

"Woo-chio-chio?" Stoka asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Where to?" Tang Yiping only planned to take a casual walk and had no particular destination in mind. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Hmm... to pick up trash!"

"Woo-chih?"

"You don't know, do you? I'm a master at picking up trash!" Tang Yiping said.

Tang Yiping hadn't been to [the carrion restaurant] for a long time.

On the one hand, he is no longer as short of money as before, and does not need to collect garbage to earn money for Nusinersen injections. After going through so much, simply injecting Nusinersen to maintain his current physical condition is no longer a difficulty for him.

Furthermore, he's been increasingly busy lately, with many more important things to do than scavenging. Especially since discovering that so many people around him had their talents stolen, his time has been devoted to various important matters, and he hasn't had the chance to simply enjoy the pleasure of "carrion" for a long time.

Today, Tang Yiping decided to please himself and indulge in a night of simple pleasure.

Stoka watched Tang Yiping walk slowly out the door and hurriedly ran forward to follow him. Then, as if remembering something, he turned around, bit the traction rope on Tang Yiping's wheelchair, and dragged the wheelchair after him.

“I don’t need a wheelchair tonight, I can walk by myself!” Tang Yiping said, clearly displeased that Stoka had followed him in the wheelchair while biting his own teeth.

He wants to walk by himself!
He wants to walk! He wants to run! He wants to jump! He wants to fly!
He felt that Stoka actually looked down on him!

Three minutes later.

Tang Yiping slumped in his wheelchair like a dead dog, dragged along the street by Stoka.

He was wrong. Double the speed doesn't just consume double the physical strength, it consumes N times more!
Especially when dealing continuous damage, the stamina bar depletes at an alarming rate.

Therefore, between "moving at half speed with normal stamina consumption" and "moving at normal speed with N times the stamina consumption", Tang Yiping chose "moving at high speed with the power of the Stokka".

Stokka Power, ON!

However, this does not mean that his cane is no longer useful.

Many places that were inaccessible to wheelchairs in the past can now be reached with ease thanks to lightweight sports wheelchairs and crutches.

For example, right now, Tang Yiping is standing on the side of a building, looking up at an air conditioner unit above his head.

His nose told him that there was something on the air conditioner unit, perhaps something that had fallen from a higher floor and was stuck there.

It smells like cash.

He stood up, leaning on his cane, walked to the wall, and then propped his cane against the wall, making it perpendicular to the wall.

In an instant, Tang Yiping's world rotated 90 degrees, and the entire world appeared horizontal in his senses. Up and down became parallel to the ground.

He lifted one foot and stepped onto the exterior wall of the building, then placed the other foot on top, walking up as if on flat ground, standing parallel to the ground on the wall.

Wow, it really works!
The Staff of Fulcrum is awesome!
Thank you Charon for the wonderful gift!

Although this can't really be considered flying... it's not that different from flying!

Even scaling walls and leaping across rooftops is still flying!

Hahaha, come on, Tang, who can scale walls and leap across rooftops, is here!

Tang Yiping was about to take his second step along the wall when he suddenly heard a voice behind him:
"Huh? Hirako-sensei!"
