The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

"Hmm, what happened?" Haruhi Suzumiya asked, puzzled.

"Don't you think your four friends have too many snacks in their baskets? You've already filled four sacks," Chen Li said.

Chen Li asked the Great Black Tower to have Estella collect a portion of all the snacks from the researchers who had turned into "whiny monsters" on the Black Tower Space Station, because eating new things would increase Chen Li's attribute points.

However, Estella reported that Chen Li's esteemed guest, Haruhi Suzumiya, recovered quickly after contracting the virus, but her other four companions encountered a problem, remaining in a whimpering state for an hour.

When Chen Li came over, he saw that Haruhi Suzumiya was putting the snacks from her four friends' hands into a sack.

"Sigh, shouldn't these little things be able to keep taking snacks out of the basket as long as the recipient wants more? Like Santa Claus." Haruhi Suzumiya tilted her head.

"..." So that's how you understand it?

Chen Li initially felt strange hearing this answer, but when he thought about how it came from Haruhi Suzumiya's mouth, he felt that it didn't seem to be a problem.

After all, this is Haruhi Suzumiya.

"Of course not. Normally, everyone has a limited number of snacks in their basket. This is a new artifact I created, and it's the first time I'm experimenting with it. It's probably because the constitution of people from your other world is different, so the situation is different from other people who have been affected." Chen Li told a white lie.

There's no way around it, this is Haruhi Suzumiya.

The monitoring data from the Black Tower Space Station shows that Haruhi Suzumiya was also affected by the Moe-sama, which indicates that the artifact's effect is working correctly.

Even a god would turn into a whiny monster if infected with a virus!

However, Haruhi Suzumiya can also influence her four friends, keeping them in a constant whining state and having them distribute snacks to her.

This is not surprising, because the whining state is actually a pseudo-invincible state, not a true invincible state.

It heals your demonic possession, relieves your stress, and even gives you a pseudo-invincible state... What more could you ask for?

It's impossible for Chen Li to guarantee that every whiny monster has the ability to go toe-to-toe with the Star God—the Star God can't kill the whiny monsters, and the whiny monsters can't hurt the Star God either.

Chen Li also conducted a special experiment and found that the eternal power enhanced by the star stone could also be used to prolong the transformation time of the whiny monster, so that even if all the snacks were given away, it would still not be able to immediately transform back.

Of course, it can only extend the time.

So, things like temporarily turning your teammates into whiny monsters and then shielding them in front of you to help you take damage... emmm, that's not entirely impossible.

Because the whining monsters are at least more durable than their real bodies!

Chen Li's eyes lit up, as if a bad feeling had arisen within him.

"So what do we do now?" Haruhi Suzumiya asked, looking at her four group members.

"That's simple. Just like if your TV breaks, you can fix it by smashing it a couple of times. You can just give them a quick fix one by one," Chen Li said.

"Is it that simple? Can I get some more snacks before I fix them?"

"Theoretically, it's possible, but I'm worried about the impact it might have on them if they take out so many snacks, so I suggest you fix it as soon as possible, dear."

"I'll go right away."

Although Haruhi Suzumiya, as the leader, sometimes bullies her members, she still values ​​them very much.

As expected, after Haruhi Suzumiya gave them her hand knife, the four of them returned to their original state.

However, the condition of the four people doesn't seem to be very good.

"..."

What is the meaning of life?

"I want to become a monk, Amitabha."

"When I get home, I will immediately delete all my links to those small websites. They're harmful to my health; I can't keep going down this path."

After everyone finished speaking, Chen Li knew where the problem lay.

"Because they've given away too much of their 'burden,' it's even caused them to enter a state of sagehood," Chen Li said to Haruhi Suzumiya.

Simply put, it means my body has been hollowed out.

"What should I do?"

"Simple, just make them eat back all the candy they gave out," Chen Li said, pointing to the four sacks of snacks behind Haruhi Suzumiya.

"Sigh, are we really going to eat it all? Can we even finish it?"

"Don't worry, these snacks are real snacks when they end up in other people's mouths, but if the person who distributed them eats them back, they will become a burden and return to the original owner, so no matter how many you eat, you won't feel full. Besides, you can eat a few pieces, but just a few pieces won't have any effect," Chen Li said.

Everyone has "burdens." Taking away some of their snacks can actually help lighten their burden.

"Looks like my plan to get rich by selling candy and snacks has failed. I'll think about how to get rich again tomorrow. Hey, you guys come here and eat all your candy!" Haruhi Suzumiya shouted at her four group members.

Even in a state of enlightenment, they dared not disobey their parents. Based on this theory, the four members who had entered a state of enlightenment also obediently ate the candy.

Fortunately, each person's candy has its own unique characteristics, so there's no need to worry about them mixing them up.

They just entered a period of clarity, not that they became fools.

"Speaking of which, if the God of Pleasure were to fall for it, what flavor of candy would He give out? And if He kept giving out candy, would He become another God of Nothingness?" Chen Li was happy for the four people who were going to eat four sacks of snacks, but at the same time he remembered something else.

It seems quite amusing to prevent the god of joy from being happy.

However, Chen Li only managed to limit the range of this strange artifact to the Black Tower Space Station area each time he used it, so the Pleasure Star God, who had been spying on Chen Li from a distance, was not affected.

"The Black Tower space station is still too dangerous..." Haruhi Suzumiya sighed.

"And Chen Li, you too, don't experiment with untested artifacts. See, you've already made a mistake, haven't you?"

"..." Chen Li opened his mouth to respond to Haruhi Suzumiya's statement, but found that he couldn't refute it at all.

You can't very well say that it was Haruhi Suzumiya's fault that caused the four of them to act strangely.

But Chen Li knew that it wasn't Haruhi Suzumiya's fault. After all, Haruhi Suzumiya just wanted to eat more snacks, so what was wrong with that?

Haruhi Suzumiya thought these whiny monsters were like Santa Claus, able to pull out an endless supply of candy.

Fine, I'll let it go for the sake of this entry and not argue with Haruhi Suzumiya.

Chen Li looked up...

Extracting the entry for "[The World of Haruhi Suzumiya]"...

Progress: 25/100 (Progress can be increased by preventing Haruhi Suzumiya from discovering her own "truth")

In other words, lying to Haruhi Suzumiya can increase the progress.

“Okay, I promise I won’t use any strange items whose effects are unknown or that are not yet perfect in the future,” Chen Li said.

Because each of Chen Li's extraordinary items, once it becomes usable, signifies that he has perfected it.

"That's good! By the way, I've recently felt that the Black Tower Space Station is still too dangerous, so..."

"to be honest."

Is the Black Tower space station in danger?

You're joking. You're far more dangerous than the Black Tower space station.

"Since I've already explored the entire Black Tower Space Station and am feeling a bit bored, I plan to take my friends to the Immortal Ship tomorrow to play cards with Qingque. We've already made plans with her."

"???" by Chen Li.

Go to the Immortal Boat? That doesn't seem appropriate.

There are already three powerful figures from other worlds on the Immortal Ship.

"There are six of you in total, it's not really appropriate for you to play cards. Qingque probably doesn't know about your situation either," Chen Li tried to politely decline on Qingque's behalf.

"No, Qingque knows. She even said she could find two more people to play cards with. Although I'm not interested in the Imperial Jade Cards, Qingque is just too enthusiastic." Suzumiya Haruhi shrugged.

"..." by Chen Li

Qingque! What have you done?!

"Why do you look so troubled?" Haruhi Suzumiya asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing. Just remember to let me know before you go tomorrow, and I'll send you my best wishes," Chen Li said.

Sure enough, when it really matters, you still have to rely on the Joyful Dice.

Jingyuan, I'm so sorry!

wrong!

Jingyuan, Qingque is so sorry!

Today is another day of saving the world...

……

"Today is another day of saving the world..." Just as Chen Li was lying in bed preparing for a rare peaceful sleep, his WeChat Moments terminal was vibrating wildly.

[Silver Wolf]: Father!!! I swear I will not be a wolf if I do not avenge this!

[Dad]: Hey, finally got your own WeChat Moments terminal? How about that? Was my hint obvious enough?

[Silver Wolf]: Ah!!! How dare you say that?! You've ruined my reputation as a dignified cosmic hacker! What do you mean by "Attention, Silver Wolf of the Star Core Hunter, Silver Wolf of the Star Core Hunter, your mother gave you your favorite game console and put it in the usual spot. Please check it."? Do you know the psychological trauma I suffered when I woke up and heard Kafka say those words to me?

[Dad]: In urgent situations, expediency is key. Anyway, welcome back to our circle of friends.

[Silver Wolf]: I lost the first match to you, no doubt about it. According to the rules, I'll be in charge of the second match! Right? And this time I've come up with a perfect match to humiliate you! A match I'm absolutely certain of winning! A match where I'll crush you and make you cry for your mother! This is the perfect match I devised after spending the entire day filled with absolute rage. Just wait and see!

[Dad]: Oh. Then I admit defeat.

[Silver Wolf]: The content of the competition is... wait, what did you say?
