My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

This contract can be amended if both parties agree.

To the Outer Gods, a million years is but a fleeting moment.

After glancing at the simplified translation of the contract by the system and finding no hidden loopholes or major obstacles, Xia Qing signed her name.

To be precise, his name appeared on the contract after Xia Qing agreed. After the contract was signed, Yug looked at Xia Qing and started talking about employee benefits:

"I don't enjoy exploiting others, so please choose an ability from my library."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qing found that the scene before her eyes had changed, and she had arrived at a place filled with countless points of light from a pure white disc.

The lights floating in the sky were of countless colors, and Yog's voice rang out at that moment:

"This is my library's record database of abilities. Those that you cannot use or are not very useful have been temporarily blocked by me. So choose your power here."

The way to choose is simply to gently touch the light spot with your finger; you'll then know what power is hidden within it.

After listening, Xia Qing began to select the power she wanted from among the countless points of light.

"What the heck is this 'one-click crossdressing' ability... Is this really useful to me? Or is it just for disguise?"

"Nyarlathotep summoning... feels like using this thing to boost Honkai Impact 3rd's potion."

"Mystical analysis... this ability seems quite useful."

After searching for a long time in Yog's library, Xia Qing finally found the power she wanted.

"I'll choose this one."

Xia Qing said something to the surroundings, and Yog's human form reappeared in front of Xia Qing.

"Mind manipulation? No problem."

Yug nodded and directly bestowed the ability of mind manipulation upon Xia Qing.

Mind manipulation is a complex ability that mainly includes mind reading, mind control, mind imprinting, and other derivative abilities.

"But how do I learn this ability?"

Xia Qing asked with some confusion, and the system's voice rang in her ears:

“You have already acquired this ability. This ability is triggered by the soul, not the body, so you are unaware of it.”

Yog nodded in agreement upon hearing the system's words, and added to Xia Qing, "Good luck! Oh, and if you go to other worlds, remember to bring me back souvenirs!"

After speaking, the two returned to the giant stone base behind the first gate and sat in their familiar seats. Xia Qing and Yog exchanged a few words before preparing to continue according to the original plan.

The planned Honkai journey was delayed for a while due to Yog, but it's not a big problem for a system that can choose its timeline.

"Host, will you enter in your true form, through soul possession, or as an avatar?"

Just as Xia Qing was about to try entering with his true form, Yog spoke up to remind him:

"If you enter in your true form, completing the system's mission will be very troublesome. Due to your soul unconsciously absorbing nutrients within the body of an ancient immortal for a long time, you are now close to being an Outer God."

You don't need to worry about your SAN value, but your SAN value will still plummet if others look directly at you.

Chapter Sixty: Born to Be King

System, I've become like Yoghurs, I'm no longer pure!

After discovering that she had been dyed with Yoghurt, Xia Qing didn't seem too concerned and asked with a puzzled look, "Will this have any effect on me?"

Yog searched through the knowledge in his mind and calmly answered Xia Qing's question: "Hmm... although I hadn't used Him when you entered this body."

However, when this body was created, I designed it to be my avatar, so some of my own elements remain within it.

Consider this incarnation a gift to you; forming another one shouldn't be too difficult.

As for how to channel my power to other worlds, just recite the words I'll transmit to your mind at other times.

Upon hearing Yog's words, Xia Qing inexplicably recalled a line from a martial arts drama she had watched long ago.

I will use my internal energy to force out what you left inside my body.

Forcing herself not to think about related matters, Xia Qing bid farewell to Yuge and chose to try out the system's newly appeared spacetime interference function.

"The target time point... well, let's set it for the second Honkai. It'll be a good opportunity to test the effects of mind manipulation on Honkai Beasts."

After Xia Qing finished speaking, she noticed that the scenery around her had changed. The world behind the door, which had been flashing white light, had now become a snow-covered plain, and not far in front of her was the young wisher.

I am currently in a soul state, and I usually need to communicate with the person making the wish before I can complete the prayer.

Xia Qing wasn't sure what young Xi'er's wish was, and she planned to wait until the next time to discuss it.

If I had entered that point in time, Seele would still be in the Sea of ​​Quanta. At that time, her wish would probably have been to escape the Sea of ​​Quanta and reunite with Bronya.

You can only draw the current world support card after completing the communication.

Xia Qing thought for a moment and loaded her only character card into the Seele's Wish panel in the current world, activating the dynamic strength mode.

There is no limit to the number of character cards that can be used in each world, but sometimes the power of the character cards simply cannot keep up with the average power of that world.

The dynamic strength mode was created for this reason. Each time you accept a prayer mission, you can choose a character card, and the power of that character card in this world will be dynamically adjusted to increase or decrease.

Xia Qing selected the Diablo character card and entered the same dynamic state as a regular support card.

After doing all this, Xia Qing examined the world-limited enhanced Diablo character card. In this world, she could allow others to share the time deletion and epitaph status with her.

In addition, the Stand's stats have been improved, such as increased destructive power and maximum range.

While browsing the card effects, time continued in the outside world. In the chaotic scene, a white-bodied Honkai Beast with purple markings charged towards Seele.

Upon seeing this, Xia Qing immediately wrapped Diablo in a black robe and then used Diablo's body to appear at the scene.

Xia Qing wasn't sure if any reincarnators would suddenly appear in this world, but according to the system, there should be quite a few reincarnators in such popular worlds.

"The Crimson King".

After wrapping Diablo's body in a black robe to prevent his image from being left behind, Xia Qing decisively activated the sharing feature.

"Help... help."

Seeing the fear on the young Seele's face as the Honkai Beast approached, the Honkai Beast suddenly rammed into Seele.

"Huh, we went through it?"

Seele's voice was somewhat surprised as the Honkai Beast charging towards her passed right through her body, as if she had been completely ignored.

Ignore it... or what?

Seele seemed to realize something, her face turning deathly pale: "Could it be that Seele is dead, and the current Seele has become a ghost?"

"No, that's not it. This is your power, the power to control time."

Looking at the incredibly cute Seele, Xia Qing suddenly felt her inner drama queen soul burning.

"My...power, wait, who are you?"

After hearing this sentence repeated, Xi'er looked at Xia Qing with a surprised expression.

Who I am is not important; what matters is your heart.

Xia Qing made up a line that left Xi'er somewhat stunned.

"My heart... How could I possibly have such power? Could it be that red pattern? Am I really a witch?"

Thinking of the red mark on her chest that had been there since birth, Seele muttered to herself, "Could it be that they really died because they were with the witch?"

Because she was once considered a witch, Seele's first thought after discovering this power was this.

"No, you're not a witch. The red markings you mentioned... are probably stigmata, but that's not important. What's important is that you find your own heart and your own goal."

Xia Qing continued rambling, convinced that she could find her goal and that these motivational quotes were almost universally applicable.

“Stigmata? Why…why do I possess that power?”

Looking around, Seele felt a sense of fear, fear of the power that the black-robed man in front of her claimed to possess.

Seele actually has very poor comprehension skills, and she was extremely flustered at that moment.

"Because you...were born to be king."

Xia Qing continued rambling, and after saying that, the time deletion state reached its limit.

Born...to be a king?

Xi'er muttered something to herself, and Xia Qing slipped away while he was distracted.

History continued to unfold along its original trajectory, with only a minor interlude: after Xia Qing left, others rescued Seele, who was being targeted by Honkai Beasts.

After walking for a while in the snow and ice, Xia Qing looked at the white sky all around and said that she regretted it now, she regretted it very much.

I should have asked for directions in the first place. Where am I now? And where is Cecilia?

Just as Xia Qing was feeling confused, she suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the snow nearby. It was the sound of a body moving into the snow.

Turning his head to look at the side, he saw a Honkai Beast. It seemed that he had been targeted by that Honkai Beast.

"You've come at just the right time. It's perfect for me to try out my newly acquired mind control techniques."

Xia Qing's soul directly interfered with the will of the Honkai Beast not far away, and everything about that Honkai Beast was laid bare before Xia Qing.

"It seems to have the authority to control the Honkai consciousness of ordinary Honkai Beasts, and it seems that cracking this authority is quite troublesome."

As Xia Qing spoke, she quickly browsed through the Honkai Beast's memories. From its birth until now, this Honkai Beast had only done one thing: kill, kill, kill.

Controlling a single Honkai Beast poses no threat to the world's top combat forces, but... what about the entirety of Siberia?

Chapter 61: Compatriots, have you ever heard of enthusiasm?

"Submit, or die."

As the Honkai Beast drew closer, Xia Qing lowered his voice and spoke, a line he had wanted to say for a long time.

His response was the meaningless roar of the Honkai Beast. Realizing that this Honkai Beast lacked sentience, Xia Qing forcibly controlled it.

"Is this the perspective of a Honkai Beast?"

After canceling Diablo's body and letting his soul descend into the Honkai Beast he controlled, Xia Qing surveyed his surroundings.

Diablo's physical body is still human, and the system's adjustments to the Diablo character card do not seem to aim to strengthen him.

Ultimately, in the Honkai world, Stand users are somewhat similar to summoners; the summoned creatures are powerful, but the summoners are not.
