The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

Of course, it refers to Chen Li himself.

However, the scam failed.

At the time, Tonghua wondered, "How could there be such a troublesome little devil?"

If this world wants to integrate those strong individuals into its worldview, it naturally has to offer some incentives first.

“I understand. But… the world you live in doesn’t seem to be that chaotic. Why did you ask me to accompany you to your friend?” Jingliu asked, somewhat puzzled.

Jingliu remembered that before leaving home, Chen Li repeatedly told him to be on guard against any dangers that might come from various places.

"..." Chen Li walked calmly down the street, but when he glanced at the restraint bracelet on his left hand, he felt anything but calm. Instead, he felt a strange sadness.

Is life really this peaceful for ordinary people in this world?

Won't they be attacked by strange people who suddenly jump out of the manhole covers?

Wouldn't you suddenly see a car wheel coming straight at you when you turn a corner?

Won't……

At least every time Chen Li wanted to meet up with his gaming buddies, he would always encounter some inexplicable things that would disrupt his plans.

But Chen Li didn't find it strange at all, because this was Chen Li's usual life.

That's right, the gaming partner who called himself Kaguya Houraisan wasn't far from Chen Li's home, only a dozen kilometers away, and the other party had already given Chen Li his home address.

But Chen Li has never met him in the past two years.

What? You mean she should come find Chen Li? That shut-in would rather spend an extra 5 yuan to order takeout from a small shop 50 meters away online than go out in person.

"More than ten kilometers? You're trying to kill me! I'm not going!"

These are the original words of that otaku who calls himself Kaguya Houraisan.

"How about... we try taking a taxi?" Chen Li suddenly suggested.

"Huh?" Jingliu didn't understand why Chen Li's attitude changed so quickly.

Before leaving home, Chen Li insisted on walking to deal with any potential dangers.

Chen Li claimed that this way, at least he wouldn't have to pay for the vehicle's depreciation after paying the taxi fare.

"See? I told you I wasn't just being a worrier! This world really is a mess!" Chen Li said excitedly, pointing to a pair of figures flying and chasing each other in the sky.

"What is that...?" Jingliu, who had just gotten out of the taxi, looked curiously at the flying object in the sky.

"Oh, it's magical girls and demons," Chen Li explained.

Chen Li found himself completely unfamiliar with the world after taking a taxi for over ten miles without any incident.

It's normal now.

"In this world, identity is profession. Cloud Rider Swordsman is a profession, and so is Magical Girl. Professions like Magical Girl, Bounty Hunter, and Dark Hero all grant experience by chasing and killing demons, monsters, and evil spirits," Chen Li explained to Jing Liu.

"Similar to military achievements, right?" Jingliu nodded.

"Pretty much. There's also a chance to obtain a demon's class certificate after defeating it, which can be used to gain more experience," Chen Li said.

Being a demon is an identity, and naturally, it's also a profession.

There are even people whose profession is being an evil god.

The purpose of a professional certificate is to prove a person's profession.

If absorbed by someone of an opposing class, experience will be gained; if absorbed by someone of a non-opposing class, there is a very small chance of gaining that class.

This is also a very low-cost-effective way to acquire a "profession".

But this has led to demons being hunted down every day and almost becoming protected animals.

Moreover, people often complain that there are too few demons and monsters in this world.

……

"Why didn't you knock?" Jing Liu asked Chen Li, leaning against the wall with his sword in his arms.

The reason he carries a sword is that Jingliu discovered that carrying a sword in the street also increases his experience.

"Patrol" is indeed part of the Cloud Cavalry's duties.

"Wait a moment while I think it over," Chen Li said, turning his head as he stood in front of an apartment building.

"Alright, come in, the door's unlocked." Just as Chen Li was getting ready, a familiar voice suddenly came through the loudspeaker at the apartment door.

"???" Chen Li was stunned for a moment.

Chen Li and Jing Liu clearly sneaked into this apartment building, just to give their gaming partner a "surprise".

But they were discovered without their knowledge.

"What are you standing there for? You don't actually think you can sneak up to my doorstep without being discovered, do you? Do you think my level 22 [Stay-at-Home] skill was just for nothing?" The voice in the microphone was very pleasant to the ear, but the tone was full of disdain.

It was a tone that Chen Li was familiar with.

"What kind of job is a shut-in?" Chen Li had never heard of this job before.

But since he had been discovered, Chen Li simply pushed open the apartment door and walked in with Jing Liu.

The moment Chen Li stepped across the apartment threshold, he felt as if he were encountering some kind of imperceptible resistance and a strange sense of being scanned.

Entering the apartment, I exchanged a glance with Jingliu, then changed into the slippers that my friend seemed to have prepared beforehand and went inside.

The moment Chen Li stepped into the living room, he was instantly captivated by its beauty.

The stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in a gorgeous kimono and with long, black hair that reached past her waist, stared blankly at herself. Let's leave aside that for now... why is there a bamboo grove in her apartment building?

Chen Li absolutely loves this decorating style!

"Hey, hey, hey, look at me! Didn't you come here to see me?" Completely ignored, Kaguya Houraisan watched with a dark face as Chen Li walked straight past her and curiously squatted down in front of a newly sprouted bamboo shoot.

I'm as beautiful as an angel, much prettier than that bamboo shoot?

You didn't even look at me, which made me lose face.

……

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to actually be Kaguya Houraisan. I thought Kaguya Houraisan was just your online name." Chen Li clicked his tongue in amazement as he looked at the black-haired girl in front of him.

"You've never considered yourself to be Kaguya Houraisan, so why do you keep calling me Kaguya Houraisan every day? I thought you'd at least have some self-awareness." Kaguya Houraisan rolled her eyes at Chen Li.

"Isn't my online name an anime character? You can call me that too." Chen Li looked at Kaguya Houraisan expectantly.

"...Who would name themselves 'Dad' online, you bastard!" Kaguya Houraisan gave Chen Li the middle finger rather rudely.

Although this was only their first offline meeting, the familiar tone and voice allowed Chen Li and Kaguya Houraisan to completely relax after exchanging a few playful insults.

The main reason is that Chen Li would find it strange.

An anime character suddenly jumps in front of you and gives you the middle finger! How amazing!

I really want to break her middle finger and see if it hurts.

While it's not impossible for someone to possess the same abilities and look similar, thus cosplaying as Kaguya Houraisan...

But no matter how much you try to imitate, you can never perfectly replicate the entries for "eternity," "moment," "princess," "sinner," "immortal," and "moon."

This is the result Chen Li saw after touching Kaguya of Houraisan.

Humans, too, have [entries].

However, in most cases, Chen Li would subconsciously avoid this matter—under normal circumstances, Chen Li would not want to cross the line and use "humans" to forge artifacts.

"Since you've come all this way to see me, would you like to have lunch first?" Kaguya Houraisan asked.

“Okay, but this food seems to be a single serving.” Chen Li said, looking at the amount of food in the pot in front of the other person.

"Isn't there another pot? By the way, would you mind having some offal soup?"

"Huh?" Upon hearing the words "offal soup," Chen Li immediately had a bad feeling.

Then Chen Li saw Kaguya Houraisan sitting opposite him with a sly smile on her face, and without changing her expression, she directly pierced through her own clothes and abdomen with her hand.

The splattered blood almost landed on Chen Li's face.

"???"

……

"Aren't you being a little too open with someone you've just met online?" Chen Li said, rubbing his forehead.

Even Chen Li, who had seen many big scenes, twitched at the corner of his eye when he saw this.

But one has to admire the opponent's immortality; just a moment ago, his chest was wide open, but in the blink of an eye, he had recovered.

"Hahaha, look at you, so naive. You got scared, didn't you? Serves you right, who told you to scare me like that?" Kaguya Houraisan mocked as she cooked offal soup.

"When did I scare you? Don't talk nonsense."

"You mean the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood I saw behind you when I first saw you was just my imagination?" Kaguya Houraisan pouted.
