I'm extremely interested in Nen abilities.

Jin and Jingyang are not that different in size, so Jingyang did not feel uncomfortable because his energy was burning up too fast when he was in the transformation state.

Now, after Jingyang deactivated his transformation, he estimated that he had been wandering around the castle in his golden form for about twenty minutes, during which he had consumed about 2000 units of energy, which is roughly 1.5 units of energy per second.

My current total Nen energy is just over 30,000. Theoretically, I can wear the tiger skin skirt and use the Seventy-Two Transformations to disguise myself as Jin for a full five or six hours... If you calculate it this way, it seems that the consumption is quite large. If I use any techniques such as "condensation" or "firmness" during the transformation, the Nen energy consumption will increase and the duration will be reduced.

but……

Jing Yang casually flicked his wrist, and a blade of energy extended from his hand—the 'Drinking Thoughts Sword'.

On the sword formed from condensed energy, there were vaguely hollow runes, only one of which was filled. That was the energy that the sword had stored on the runes when he used the Soul-Drinking Sword to exorcise the spirits of a patient in a certain hospital; he had jokingly called it a "gas battery."

If the energy stored in the Drinking Thought Sword is used to offset the energy consumed in maintaining the Seventy-Two Transformations, then there's no need to affect one's basic combat ability. That's really good...

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Di asked from the side.

The two men and the tiger left the castle and quickly descended the mountain.

Jingyang looked around: "I was wondering, where is Auntie?"

……

When Jingyang found Bisky, she was eating noodles and chatting with someone at a roadside stall in the town. As Jingyang approached, he realized it was the eccentric guy he had met at the foot of Castle Mountain earlier—the one Bisky called the Game Hunter named Gambi.

Game hunters have appeared on the most magical game island in this world. Hmm, that makes sense.

"You've come at the perfect time," Bisky said to Jingyang as he approached, slurping up the last bite of noodles.

Jing Yang asked curiously, "Where exactly? Do you know where the city lord is?"

Bisky put down her chopsticks: "Perfect timing to pay the bill, kid."

"BOOK." Jing Yang didn't take it seriously, summoned his game card book, took out a card worth 10,000 yuan and handed it to the snack stall owner.

He plopped down, squeezing Bisky off the stool and aside; the boss was the one who paid.

Wu Erzehu lay beside him, and Xiao Di sat on his back.

Bisky said, "I asked Gambit, as a game hunter, I'm not surprised at all that he would appear in this special game, Greed Island. But what I don't understand is, with his skill level, how come he hasn't been able to beat this game yet?"

"Why?" Little Drop looked at Ganmu curiously.

Jing Yang said, "What I'm more curious about is how come this one-star professional hunter doesn't even have the money to buy noodles?"

Gim wiped his mouth: "My experience from childhood to adulthood is this: when eating out, the oldest or the most capable person pays the bill." He looked at Bisky.

Jingyang also looked at Bisky and said smugly, "I'm definitely not the oldest, so Auntie Bisky thinks I'm the most capable, right?"

Bisky chuckled and said, "I also have a life lesson to share: if you have apprentices to give orders to, you don't need to do everything yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ganmu glanced at Jingyang a couple more times. Was this Bisji's newly accepted disciple?

Jingyang said, "Don't just look at me, this one too." He pointed to Xiaodi.

Xiao Di is still curious about the question from the beginning: "Why haven't we been able to clear the level yet?"

Gham stood up and said, "It's not that we couldn't beat the game, but that we didn't want to. Don't you think the most interesting thing about Greed Island isn't how to beat the game, but rather—how exactly are all these magical items on the island made?"

Watching him disappear into the crowd of people in the town, Bisky said, "Without a doubt, the Greed Island game is achieved through Nen abilities. According to Gambi, it would take seven or eight, or even more than ten, Nen users with advanced training in various systems working together to complete such a complex Nen game."

Shizuku said, "The cards in the game are all made of Nen, which is easy to understand. What is he wondering about?"

“This is the key.” Bisky held up a finger. “After completing the game, as a reward, the winning player can take the cards out of the game. Think about it, these cards in this game: a kettle that can guzzle plenty of water every day, a hot spring that can solve all skin problems, a stone that can make someone pregnant… a demon that can grant any wish, an archangel that can heal all injuries and illnesses, even a television that can predict everything that will happen in the next 24 hours. These things that are laughable in the game, if they can be taken outside, they can be considered genuine 'Nen abilities,' but…”

If these things are really considered "Nen abilities," no matter which type, they are far too extraordinary, aren't they?

Even the seasoned veteran Biskey, after careful consideration, couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

In particular, these extraordinary card abilities were created by one person or a group of people.

What kind of Nen ability and Nen user would it take to create such a game, or rather, to create these incredible cards?

“Excuse me,” Jingyang said, “When we entered the game, the NPC didn’t mention what the reward for completing the game was, right? How did this Ganmu know?”

Bisky said, "He's a game hunter, so it's only natural that he has some unique skills in the game world, right? Don't underestimate professional hunters, kid."

Xiaodi said, "In short, he thinks the cards in this game are unusual, and after learning that they can be taken out of the game, he can't understand how they were made at all..."

“That’s how it is.” Bisky nodded. “However, as long as I get the Blue Planet Gem, I’m not that interested in the game. —Where’s your bird?” She glanced at the Moon Tiger under Little Drop’s mount, then looked up at the sky. The gray-feathered bird that had been lingering nearby had disappeared without a trace.

Jingyang smiled and said, "I asked it to test something small..."

"What is it?" Bisky asked.

What happens if the 'player' leaves the island on their own?

……

On the west coast of Greed Island, a grey-feathered bird placed something in its place, then took flight and sped towards the sea, quickly crossing the island's boundary and entering the nearby waters.

Below, the waves crashed, and the rock sparrow's eyes flashed; "Jingyan Que" appeared.

"Could it really fly out directly?"

Thinking this, the "Jingyan Que" continued flapping its wings and soaring across the sea. "Wait, something's not right..."

Just two minutes after flying out to sea, the "Jingyan Que" felt the scene before its eyes flash by and then disappear into the distance—oh, not that the scenery had gone far away, but that it had returned to the island.

The "Jingyan Que" glides with its wings outstretched, and looking down, it sees the very edge of the island's coastline.

Chapter 241 Missing an A

"OK, hidden rule 1: the so-called Greed Island refers to the island itself and the area within 5 kilometers of its shore. Once a player leaves this area, they will be forced to return to the coast of the nearest island..."

"That makes sense. If a player filled the ring's book with various ability cards and spell cards, then simply took a small boat and rowed back to a mainland city... wouldn't that be exploiting a bug?"

"Since players can't physically smuggle themselves in, then what else...?"

The "Jingyan Que" gazed at the vast sea from the shore. After enjoying the sea breeze for a while, it hopped and turned to look at the thing it had brought to the shore beforehand—a necklace, No. 084, "The Paladin's Jewelry." Wearing it would allow it to deflect and dispel spells.

It sounds impressive, but its difficulty to obtain and rarity are actually only D-60.

This is easy to understand. After all, the so-called spells only exist on Greed Island, so this defensive item is only useful on Greed Island. If you take it outside, it's just an ordinary necklace.

Therefore, Jingyang was very willing to use it for experiments.

He piloted the rock sparrow, circling the nearshore waters, and spotted a fish about the thickness and length of an adult's arm. Immediately, a thought struck him, and he released a cluster of tiny bubbles containing a pentagram pattern. The small bubble silently disappeared underwater, branding a rose-gold pentagram mark on the unsuspecting fish's forehead.

Soon, the sea fish, carrying the 'Paladin's Jewelry' thrown down by the rock sparrow, swam swiftly towards the waters off the island.

This fish is not a "player"...

The "Jingyan Que" stayed on the shore waiting. Not long after, a necklace covered in water suddenly appeared out of thin air on the ground next to it and fell to the ground with a thud.

A bunch of idiots planned this!

You can't even exploit a bug.

The "Jingyan Que" gave up its illusions and flew back towards the island, carrying the necklace.

"Spatial Nen abilities are frequently found in both Conjuration and Emission types."

On the way out of the main city, Bisky said to Jingyang and Xiaodi, "Emission-type techniques usually focus more on teleportation, such as instantly moving oneself or others to another location, or even transferring a part of one's own or another person's body..."

"It's this teleportation ability that brought us into this game," said Drop.

Bisky nodded: "That's right. The spatial abilities of the materialization type often involve creating a special space out of thin air, and then establishing various rules within that special space. Generally speaking, if you accidentally fall into such a trap, you must obey the corresponding rules, regardless of the strength of your own Nen."

Jingyang said, "Just like the manipulation system, the first move always wins! Rule-based abilities are always unreasonable."

Bisky said, "Therefore, no matter how strong you are, you can't be careless when facing any Nen user whose background you don't know, especially if you know that the other party is a Manipulation or Conjuration type. Of course, you have to be even more careful with Specialization types. If you rely on your strong Nen power and end up losing, there's no going back."

Little Drop looked up at the sky and said, "So, this island is a special space that has been materialized?"

Bisky said, "The island itself may not be materialized; there's no need for that. However, since your bird can't fly away, it's certain that the area where this island is located, this space, is indeed a special realm containing rules."

"One of the rules is that you can only leave using the methods specified here," Xiao Di said knowingly. Among the cards Jing Yang had stolen, there was one for 'leaving,' which was undoubtedly the "legal" way to leave the island.

Jingyang said, "In that case, the plan to 'extort a 'Blue Planet' card from other players, unlock the card into a gem, and then row away from the island with the gem to run away from school' is really out of the question."

Bisky sighed, "If only it were that simple! The person who designed this game is a clever but wicked person..."

Taliyah's tiny figure flew in from the sky. Shizuku said, "The entire space surrounding the island is shaped by Nen abilities, and there are so many monsters and strange cards on the island... It's really amazing!"

Bisky pondered, "It is indeed as Gim said. This place is truly chilling the more you think about it... I mean, if the reward for clearing the level really allows you to take the cards here to the outside world."

Wishing, prophecy, immortality, wealth, healing the dead, creation from nothing... The range of abilities covered by the cards on the island, both in breadth and depth, is unbelievable.

The effects of Nen abilities usually conform to a certain principle of equivalent exchange. The stronger and more incredible the ability, the more constraints and limitations there should be, or some kind of price to pay—even for the Enhancement type, which doesn't emphasize special abilities the most, "years of arduous training" itself can be considered a price to pay for great strength.

What exactly did the people who created Greed Island sacrifice to achieve all the countless miracles on this entire island?

"In short, the blue planet has to think of other solutions."

Jingyang looked at the sky.

Bisky laughed and said, "There's no rush. Didn't you come here to find a place to cultivate?"

Little Drop exclaimed in surprise, “Bisky, you were just pretending to be fierce, but you’re actually very gentle and considerate!”

boom!

Bisky threw a punch, but Little Drop blocked it with her arms and slid backward for more than ten meters. "Don't think I'll be polite just because you're pretty, little girl." Bisky chuckled and blew on her fist. "Still gentle and considerate now?"

Jingyang laughed and said, "We need to cultivate, and we also need to play games. We need to beat up Leizha, and we also need to mess with the Blue Planet."

-

Are you so surprised to see me?

Arantriel, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, descended the stairs and entered the castle hall.

Duen was still lying on his side in front of the garbage-heap-like TV, fiddling with the controller and playing games. Without turning his head, he said, "Even though you're 'A' from Greed Island, you're a very busy person. I haven't seen you since the game was finished. Shouldn't you be surprised that you suddenly appeared today?"

“A?” Alan Trillton paused for a moment, then exclaimed, “Oh, I almost forgot.”

"I told you you didn't take it to heart, right?" Du En grumbled as he broke a speedrun record while fiddling with the controller. "You were just someone Jin dragged in to make up the numbers. You don't have the heart of a player at all!"

Greed Island, a name formed from the initials of eleven game designers. Ging is the first G, Arantriel is the first A, Dorn is the first D, and Liszt is the first L.

Arantre calmly replied, "After all, I was also responsible for a part of the piloting system."

Du En said, "Actually, that guy Jin could have handled it all by himself. He just saw that Green Island was missing an A! That obsessive-compulsive, willful, arrogant guy..."

"Is it related to it?" Li Site finally spoke, looking up at the ceiling of the castle hall, just like Arantriel, at the strange icosahedron floating above the chandelier. "Is it related to this 'D'?"
