An infinite journey starting from paradise

"Hehuan has become so strange..."

Linyin heard that Hehuan was panting and making soft, dreamy sounds.

“Great~”

"Shangren... If you wish, I can handle your desires at any time..."

"Ah~ I can always be with Shangren-kun..."

“So happy…”

Not only Hehuan became strange, Linyin knew that she was going to become strange too. She felt her head numb and her body was extremely empty. She was longing for Lin Shangren.

Finally, after Hehuan let out a scream, Linyin's emptiness was also filled by Lin Shangren.

"Well…"

Sweetness and pain hit Linyin's nerves, and she held Hehuan's hand tightly.

"This... woo... is really great..."

……

Late at night, after helping Hehuan and Linyin wipe their bodies and cover them with quilts, Lin Shangren returned to his room.

As he expected, Caiyue was lying on his bed. She was only wearing a thin purple translucent nightgown, and she was looking at Lin Shangren who walked into the room with a seductive look.

"Do you still have the energy, Shangren-kun?" Natsuki asked softly.

Then, she licked her lips and said, "If Shang Renjun is tired, I can sit on it and move myself~"

"Oh? You really are being underestimated. Do you think you can defeat me in a round-robin battle?"

Lin Shangren pulled off the bath towel from under him and walked towards Caiyue in a leisurely manner.

"I'm going to show you how powerful the perpetual motion chicken is!"

Facing Caiyue who was lining up to greet him, Lin Shangren naturally wanted to test her strength!

There is a poem in praise of it:

Three thousand formations are fiercely fought with golden spears, and silver candles are coming to Qibajiao.

It does not hinder the muscles and bones of the two bodies, but also removes the cloud bridge.

He had only fought three people in a row, and he, Lin Shangren, was no slouch!!!

……

After several fierce battles, Natsuki was killed and had to throw away her underwear... well, she wasn't wearing any in the first place.

In short, after Lin Shangren delivered several nutritional values, Caiyue ended this intense in and out movement with satisfaction, and fell asleep while hugging Lin Shangren's arm.

Lin Shangren hadn't fallen asleep yet. He was thinking about how to improve his physical fitness.

This is not because he showed weakness in the fierce battle just now. With the blessing of the perpetual motion chicken, as long as he has water, sugar and protein in his body, he will be able to remain strong.

The real problem was that he was no match for Aoi Natsuki in strength, and was easily put into a passive position. Although Lin Shangren could weaken Natsuki through deep attacks, he was facing his lover.

In a life-or-death struggle, while Lin Shangren could rely on his unpredictable and outrageous skills to protect himself, his ordinary body was still a weakness. Furthermore, those skills would also consume his energy. If he got stuck in a prolonged battle, Lin Shangren would become very passive.

Therefore, he urgently needed to find a way to make his body stronger.

“I’m obviously a brain person, but in the end I still have to improve my body.

That's right, Clark Kent possesses both superintelligence and superstrength. But when faced with a difficult problem, the optimal solution his superintelligence provides is always to rush through it with superstrength.

Who would want to play a game of wits when they can just push it forward? "

"So, how do I improve my body? I do have some knowledge about human body modification, but my current computing power is simply not enough to access that knowledge.

Damn, I have to increase my intelligence before I can increase my strength. The worst part is, I don’t know how to improve my brain’s computing power. Do I need to drink more Melatonin? Hey, Xiao Ai.”

Xiao Ai did not respond to Lin Shangren. It was obvious that she was still sleeping.

"Forget it, we have to eat one bite at a time, so let's solve the problem at hand first.

My family's savings are still quite sufficient... Haha, with my current abilities, making money is easy. I can use my knowledge of smartphone modification, and programming knowledge is also useful... Okay, let's make money first, lots of it.

Then you can set up your own laboratory, get equipment and materials. Then improve the weapons you have at hand... Hey, hey, you are rich enough, why should you be limited to the melons and two dates at hand?

Should I get some money and go to Africa to practice my skills? Based on my past life experience, $200,000 would be enough to stage a coup there and become a local tyrant. It's a pity I didn't catch the weapons sale in Russia..."

It can only be said that sage time is indeed conducive to thinking. At this time, Lin Shangren's mind was extremely clear, and he quickly came up with various plans for the future.

"Although a peaceful and happy life is great, if you have the ability to strive for better conditions, you should work hard to get them.

Are you ready, little burning earth? Uncle Lin Shangren is going to give you a little next-generation technology shock~"

With a vision for the future, Lin Shangren fell asleep with a smile.

Chapter 56: Multiverse and Good Morning Bite

Lin Shangren, who was sleeping, suddenly heard a ethereal and mournful singing voice, as if a sad girl was humming a hymn while sobbing softly.

"what happened?"

Lin Shangren opened his eyes, but saw only a deep darkness. He was floating in this dark and deep space.

"Huh? Where's my house?"

While Lin Shangren was still confused, Xiao Ai's voice sounded in his mind at the right time.

[Sorry, my Lord, for disturbing your rest.]

Then, the deep darkness began to glow with firefly-like lights, and Ashrose's figure gradually emerged in the dim light.

Lin Shangren asked: "Are you awake?"

"I'm awake now. I had a very comfortable sleep. I feel full of energy and vitality~(?＞?＜)☆"

Xiao Ai's voice was cheerful and she seemed particularly happy.

"That's good. I have a lot of questions for you. By the way, where is this place? Could it be you who was humming just now?"

Lin Shangren looked around. Besides Ashrose and the faint glow surrounding her, he could only see two enormous, shimmering blue-purple bubbles. They were about a man's height, and filled with smaller, radiant bubbles of various colors, like a giant crystal ball.

"This is an observation layer far beyond the universe. Theoretically, you can observe the entire universe from here." Ashrose explained.

"As for the song just now, it came from the new universe I just discovered."

"This is where we observe the entire universe. What about these two...?"

Lin Shangren looked at the two huge bubbles.

"That's the Anchor Universe and the Euphoria Universe you're in," Ashrose said. "As long as you break through the outer membrane, you can enter the ocean of possibilities of this universe, and then enter its material universe."

"Is that right?"

Lin Shangren reached out to the larger bubble. The moment his finger touched the membrane, the bubble began to change dramatically. A cluster of bright stars formed the image of Evelya. She also extended her finger toward Lin Shangren.

Ashrose continued, "She can't see you. Crossing the universe requires a huge amount of energy. You can't break through this 'membrane' on your own right now. You need my help."

"So, my journey through the universe was just you holding me, and then I crashed headfirst into this big bubble?"

“You can understand it this way.”

"Haha... that's really... a simple and unpretentious way of traveling through time. Is the same principle also used when a dump truck creates a person's time of travel?" Lin Shangren asked half-jokingly.

Ashrose shrugged and replied, "I think so. I'm not sure."

"What about this? If I am outside the universe now, it won't take a lot of energy to return to my own universe, right?" Lin Shangren looked at the smaller bubble again.

"No need. Strictly speaking, your body is still in the universe, and it is your consciousness that is in this space. And..."

As she spoke, Ashrose gently pushed the large bubble representing Lin Shangren's universe. The bubble spun around, revealing a... door handle.

"what?"

Ashrose explained seriously, "With this world anchor, you can enter and exit your universe at any time."

"No...isn't this a bit too hasty? It's called a World Anchor, so why does it look like a doorknob?!"

"Because it doesn't look like a door handle." Ashrose said.

“In fact, everything you see now is far from what it actually looks like.

Since you are still an ordinary human, your cognitive ability is not yet able to understand the higher-dimensional things outside of these dimensions. To protect your brain, the system automatically translates everything here into what you see now. This makes it easier for you to understand.

"So that's it..."

After listening to Ashrose's explanation, Lin Shangren pondered for a moment, then he asked:

"What about you, Ai-san? What do you really look like? You look like a beautiful girl, but you're actually a Katsuki-esque cute girl with tentacles and eyeballs?"

"I'm telling you... My name is Ashrose, not Saya."

Ashrose said with some dissatisfaction,

"My Lord, you should really watch your words. You could easily get yourself beaten!"

"hehe."

Lin Shangren expressed no comment on this.

He then asked, "What about the other universes here? The so-called multiverse can't just be two universes, right?"

Ashrose replied, "Of course it's hidden. Regardless of whether the universe has developed consciousness or not, it will instinctively hide its location. After all, if it's exposed, there's a chance a pervert could break through the membrane and force their way in~"

"Huh? A pervert?"

"It's us. We're the only ones in this system who can enter and exit other universes," Ashrose explained. "I can't tell you the details yet."

"Because I wouldn't understand even if you told me?" Lin Shangren asked.

"No, because I don't know either! Hehe~ (*/?＼*)"

"Hey hey your uncle!"

"I can't help it. I just don't know." Ashrose spread her hands. "I only know that I exist to protect you and assist you in exploring the universe within this system. As for questions like 'why are we doing this?' or 'why are we the only ones doing this?' I have no idea."

"I don't know, just mugwort!"

"Artemisia doesn't know either~"

As she spoke, Ashrose actually lifted up her long skirt towards Lin Shangren: "Even if I stand here with my buttocks, your weak body can't penetrate my membrane~

Trash~ Trash~(?ω?)"

Looking at classmate Xiao Ai who suddenly turned into a feminine little devil, Lin Shangren was sure that this girl must have watched porn and drank cold water - she had nothing good to say.

As expected, after mocking Lin Shangren, Ashrose pulled out something that looked like a crystal ball from her sleeve and said, "Hehe~ So, does the trash master want to make his body stronger? Here's an opportunity~"

Lin Shangren twitched his chin and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"This is my newfound universe."

As she spoke, Ashrose threw the crystal ball out, and then the crystal ball expanded into the shape of a "cosmic bubble".

She continued, "This universe hasn't developed its own consciousness yet, so we don't have to worry about interference from the universe's consciousness when exploring it. Although we haven't figured out what kind of universe it is, exploring it will at least give us several chances to win the lottery.

Master, you can use the items you draw to strengthen and improve yourself. You might even be able to complete the two super-sized items, 'Wind Spirit Moon Shadow' and 'Four Beasts Dice'."

"Oh? Is that so?" Lin Shangren cast a distrustful look. "Xiao Ai, we've just finished exploring one universe. Why are you so eager to rush me onto the next adventure?"

"this…"

Ashrose poked her index finger awkwardly. "Because I'm bored. If I can't accompany my master on adventures, I'll just have to stay here, aimlessly searching for new universes. It's so boring~ (?_?)"

"And, Master, you just heard the song emanating from this universe, didn't you? Even though cosmic consciousness hasn't yet emerged, there's a soul voice that can spread beyond the universe. Perhaps there are some very interesting things in this universe~"

Lin Shangren asked: "Soul voice? What is that?"

"It's the voice of the soul, driven by obsession. It generally only exists in universes whose underlying logic leans towards idealism. In such universes, magic, miracles, ghosts, and other things that contradict basic materialistic science often exist. In other words, this universe might be a fantasy worldview.

Hey, Master, Taoism, magic, Yin-Yang magic. Elves, ghosts, vampires! Aren’t you interested in these? ! "

"I'm interested, but not right now." Lin Shangren interrupted Ashrose, "First of all, I'm very tired now and want to rest for a while.

Again, I haven’t completely settled down my future life with Hehuan and the others.

Finally, although I am very interested in fantasy, I never fight a battle without preparation. I will not act rashly until I am fully prepared.

"Ah...why is this happening..." Ashrose looked very disappointed.
