Question, Understand, Become a Holy Lord

"Did your mission this time actually alarm the 'big boss'?" Aizen was unfamiliar with the title of big boss, but based on the literal meaning, he could tell which big boss Zhang Jie was referring to, and asked with some surprise.

"Who said it wasn't? I didn't expect the big boss to suddenly show up and directly complete all our final battle work. But fortunately, the big boss showed up, otherwise I might not be able to return as safely as I am now." Zhang Jie said with some sighs.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Brother Aizen, what on earth is going on with this place? We have finally snatched away the Main God Space. Will the employee benefit of taking advantage of the Main God Space be reduced in the future?" Zhang Jie asked with some concern.

That's right, compared to some other trivial or high-end games that are completely beyond his reach with his level, Zhang Jie, whose abilities are mostly based on fleecing the main god space, is most concerned about his own interests.

Taking advantage of the Main God Space as an employee benefit is freeloading, but if the Main God Space is invested in or even completely controlled by one's own boss, it is hard to say whether it can still be freeloading in the future or whether it can be freeloading to a greater extent.

For most of these godslayers, the things that can be exchanged in the main god space are basically to help them fill in the gaps and make their abilities and strengths more complete and three-dimensional, and this alone will not consume many points.

It is often said that success is 99% perspiration plus 1% inspiration, but without that 1% inspiration, the 99% perspiration is nothing. Zhang Jie is obviously a person who does not have that 1% talent, so whether he can get the main god space for free is crucial to him!

It's not like he hasn't tried to become stronger using normal methods, but after he changed several systems and saw no improvement, he gave up and became a part of the exchange party, relying on the ready-made abilities he got from the main god space to build his own system.

And this system is not static. In most cases, Zhang Jie has to clear his abilities according to the next mission goal, and then redeem a new wave of abilities and props. In this way, he can make targeted arrangements to ensure the success rate and survival rate of his mission.

For him who originally had no abilities, reshaping himself was not something unacceptable. On the contrary, few people who already possess systematic power have Zhang Jie's determination to abandon their former selves and embrace a new life.

Therefore, although Zhang Jie may be at the bottom of the list in terms of strength in this square, his reputation and popularity are not bad. Most people who have done missions with him are impressed by Zhang Jie. Zhang Jie's targeted preparations for the evil gods have also greatly increased their survival rate. Such teammates always make people feel extraordinarily reassured regardless of their own strength.

That's why the twin Old Ones, Nag and Yeb, became Zhang Jie's direct superiors. As descendants of Yog-Sothoth, they would not remember all the mortals who helped them, and Zhang Jie was one of them.

However, this time, because the new teammates were too reliable, Zhang Jie slacked all the way from the beginning to the end. Finally, when Mordiggian showed his true identity, theoretically it was time for him to cooperate with his boss Nag and the two gods Yeb to capture him.

The unexpected appearance of big boss Yog-Sothoth made all his efforts and preparations in vain, and he could only witness the end of Mordiggian in the VIP audience seats.

Although it felt great to have completed the mission before even starting to do anything, it was not so pleasant to be interrupted before even starting to act. It was for this reason that he only dared to show off his power in front of Dilada.

"The main god space is still operating normally. As for employee benefits... as far as I know, it is no different from before." Aizen Sosuke answered Zhang Jie's doubts.

"That's good." Zhang Jie's face was full of relief. It seemed that he could continue to get it for free in the future.

"We're here. All the rules of this square are written on this stone tablet." Aizen brought Zhang Jie to an inconspicuous-looking stone tablet in the northwest direction of the square, pointing at the words on the tablet.

"Logically, shouldn't this kind of thing be placed in the center of the square?" Zhang Jie couldn't help but complain as he looked at this somewhat remote location. Although it was true that many people gathered here, newcomers would subconsciously gather in the direction of the crowds to watch the excitement even if they didn't know about it. This was human nature.

But under normal circumstances, who would put this kind of monument in a corner? Does it serve as a boundary monument?

Despite all the complaints, Zhang Jie still looked at the inscription very honestly.

1. Death is forbidden here;

2. Do not go to places where there is no light at all;

3. Pepsi-Cola is not allowed here;

4. Please return lost items promptly if you find them. If you cannot find the owner of the lost items temporarily, please place the lost items here.

5. Unhealthy relationships between men and women are prohibited in this world;

6. Do not comment on others below the neck, especially women;

7. Strict (crossed out) It is strictly forbidden to gather in large numbers to cause trouble, or to drink and commit crimes;

8. It is forbidden to go to places where there is no shadow at all;

9. It is strictly forbidden to urinate or defecate anywhere here;

……

Seventy-three. I can’t write any more, so I’ll leave it like this for now.

Absurd, chaotic, and nonsensical, these are what Zhang Jie felt after reading the entire inscription. Not only are the rules engraved on the inscription confusing, but even the format and font are not unified. It is as if several people started writing at the same time and wrote down whatever they thought of, without considering the feelings of the people reading the inscription at all.

There are even typos in it!

"Are you serious about this?" Zhang Jie pointed at the inscription with a twitching mouth and asked Aizen.

"There is no prohibition on destroying the inscription." Aizen had guessed Zhang Jie's reaction long ago. Even when he came here and saw these rules for the first time, he was stunned for a long time. He spent a lot of computing power trying to find if there were any hidden rules or deep meanings, but it turned out that he was overthinking in the end.

What you see is what you get in this inscription.

"Haha... I see. It seems to be true." There is no prohibition on destroying the inscription. What Aizen meant by this sentence is that someone has tried it, and it must be a strong person who is powerful enough to convince everyone. The fact that the inscription is placed here intact has already explained the final result.

But if you think about it carefully, their superiors are also Outer Gods and Old Gods, who are essentially of the same origin as the evil gods they are hunting. If you think about the problem from this perspective, then the appearance of such meaningless rule inscriptions does not seem strange?

"In short, apart from the rules described on the inscription, we have not found anything else useful so far. But at the same time, there are no other restrictions. This square is completely open to us for free use."

"What will happen if you break the rules? Has anyone tried it?" Zhang Jie began to become curious about what kind of punishment someone would receive if they accidentally broke the rules.

"I don't know, maybe someone has tried it. Anyway, no one we know has ever violated the above rules." Aizen smiled helplessly.

Zhang Jie felt that he should not continue discussing such a creepy and dangerous topic, and decided to print out these rules and post them all over the room as soon as he returned to his team hall.

This is to prevent the newcomers from coming here when he is not here and unknowingly breaking one of the rules on the inscription. Zhang Jie is very satisfied with the newcomers this time, and he does not want to change his teammates too early.

"And as you can see, as long as it is not prohibited by the inscription, you can do anything in this square. Many people have already occupied a piece of land in the square and opened their own shops." Aizen pointed to the houses of different styles not far away.

"Something will definitely happen like this!" Zhang Jie said with a serious face.

"Oh, Brother Jie, do you have any inside information from your boss?" Aizen asked curiously.

"No, I mean that with the way they build houses, it won't be long before the whole square will be in chaos and blocked. It must be planned by professionals!" As for the problem of easy fire and burning a large area, that is a small matter. Few people present are afraid of fire.

Aizen was also stunned when he heard this answer. He thought that his computing power still needed to be improved. He had to include more human models in the calculation...

"In short, the purpose of this square should be to provide us with a place for communication, or it may be to pave the way for the next stage of the mission. After all, after such a long hunt, there are not many evil gods left. If they are going to take any action, it is time to prepare in advance." Aizen analyzed.

"I hope it's not a bad thing, otherwise our few pounds of meat won't be able to stop them at all..." Zhang Jie scratched his head and sighed helplessly.

Chapter 289: The New Reincarnation Square

The Reincarnation Square, this is the official name of this square that was taken away and opened up from the autonomous divine space. It was a name decided by all the Reincarnations gathered in the square after voting. It is simple and straightforward.

Originally, someone suggested that although this group of people could be considered to have an organization in the Main God Space, they were essentially completely different from the Main God Space, so it would be better to give them a new, more recognizable name.

It didn't take long for the person who proposed this to deeply experience what it means to shoot oneself in the foot. This large group of people came from different worlds, with different languages, different outlooks, and huge differences in cultural education. Even their races were not limited to humans or even humanoid creatures. It was already very difficult for such a motley crowd to gather together peacefully.

Letting such a group of guys name things according to their own preferences and habits, the end result was that many of them almost fought each other because of cultural differences, which turned into a big melee.

In the end, based on the principle of doing less and making fewer mistakes, the default name of the main god space, Reincarnation, was determined as their official name, and the name Reincarnation Square was also determined.

As for how to solve the problem of identity and title if they encounter genuine reincarnations in the future, according to tradition, whoever has the bigger fist is the orthodox side, and the fists of these newly born free "genuine" reincarnations are undoubtedly bigger than those reincarnations kept in captivity in the main god space.

After all, even the territory was directly snatched and occupied from the Main God Space. If the Main God Space felt that it had a chance of winning, it would have gathered its fighting force and attacked long ago. Although the number of reincarnations in the Main God Space is not large, the Main God Space is very adept at cloning. If it really wants to increase its troops, it can completely crush them in terms of numbers.

Now that even the Main God Space has tacitly agreed to the cession of its land, it can only mean that the Main God Space’s fist is not as strong as their backing.

The competition between the upper echelons of both sides was won by these newly-born orthodox reincarnationists. So how could they, as workers carrying out tasks, feel that they were weaker than those traditional old-school reincarnationists who were "kept in captivity"?

What's more, many of them have actually carried out normal missions in the main god space, and most of them have a basic understanding of the strength of those reincarnations. Even the strongest ones at the top have obvious weaknesses and shortcomings when they are restricted by the main god space mechanism.

This is also the reason why this group of people call those reincarnations in the main god space "captive" reincarnations - but then again, there are many more people among them with distinct abilities and personality problems than those in the main god space, which is like the pot calling the kettle black.

After the initial design and planning of the Reincarnation Square was finalized, the reincarnations were surprised to find that the rate at which new members were added seemed many times faster than before. Every day, new teams of reincarnations opened their doors from various locations in the Reincarnation Square and looked at the outside world with confusion on their faces.

Fortunately, although the location of the door is random, it is not completely random. The portal will only be randomly opened in an unoccupied empty position on the Samsara Square. Otherwise, the construction of the Samsara Square would probably be stuck in an endless suspension right from the start.

The reincarnations also made minor adjustments to the entire Reincarnation Square based on the pattern of where the portals appear, filling the entire square with decorations that are tangible but will not affect pedestrians, as well as various public facilities.

The locations where the portals appeared were all concentrated in the northwest direction of the Reincarnation Square, which is in front of the rule stele.

Doing so would allow newcomers to understand those somewhat strange rules when they first arrived, so as to avoid dying before they even start, or disappearing shortly after entering the Reincarnation Square because they violated some inexplicable rule;

Secondly, not many people are willing to move around near the rule stele. If the design is taken into consideration to maximize the utilization efficiency of the space of the Reincarnation Square, then setting it as the starting point and the return point would be a great solution.

In this way, the Samsara Square finally got on the right track with the public efforts of the Samsaras here. As for their nominal superiors, the Old Ones and the Outer Gods have never cared much about their existence.

They only summon some of the reincarnations from time to time to participate in the task of hunting down the remaining evil gods, and after the mission is completed, the Reincarnation Square will spontaneously bring the reincarnations back. Compared with the previous reliance on the main god space as an intermediary, the efficiency has been greatly improved.

As more and more beings from various worlds gathered in the Samsara Square, the remaining evil gods were reduced in number with their help. The presence of the great beings who were the superiors of the Samsaras also became lower and lower. Many people no longer received missions to hunt down evil gods.

This Reincarnation Square has officially gotten rid of its original responsibilities and officially become a channel for communication and transaction among these different lives from all over the world. Although with the increase in the number of reincarnations, various contradictions and frictions have also increased, everyone is still very restrained and has not taken action in the Reincarnation Square.

If the conflicting parties really have some unresolved conflicts, then they will choose to enter the main god space together and completely resolve the conflicts between the two sides there. Thanks to them, the lives of the traditional reincarnations in the main god space have become more colorful.

However, although the issuance of tasks above has stagnated, the number of people coming and going in this Reincarnation Square is still increasing, and they are not limited to those who originally had the identity of Reincarnation. After all, who doesn’t have a few relatives and friends these days?

In a place like the Samsara Square, which has many talented people and abundant resources, the first thing most Samsaras think of is how to get their acquaintances to come and play together.

In the beginning, when there were still many evil gods and the frequency of missions was relatively high, although many people had such thoughts, few people took action. After all, the pursuit and crusade of evil gods was no joke. If you were not careful, your body and soul would be destroyed and there would be no reincarnation.

It would be bad if after you bring your friends and relatives to the Reincarnation Square, they would be automatically given the identity of Reincarnations. If you are not careful, your friends might become your enemies.

As for the very few people who took action for this, they were unable to do so due to their own limitations. So although the legend of the Samsara Square began to spread in their original worlds through their mouths, only that one person in each world was qualified to enter this place.

As time went by, the situation took a turn for the better as the evil god's traces became fewer and fewer. So the reincarnationists gathered together again and began to study how to further expand and transform the Reincarnation Square, and to find a way to bring people in and out of here.

Almost all of the reincarnationists are talented. The ability of one person may be limited, but with the collective efforts of most of the capable and goal-oriented reincarnationists, they eventually completely separated the control of this space from the hands of the 1st Lord God Space and brought it into the hands of their own people.

Although the disadvantage of doing so is that they will no longer be able to go to the mission world of the main god space to resolve conflicts or travel, and the exchange channels of the main god space are also completely closed to the reincarnations in the reincarnation square, compared to the benefits of making this space independent, these are acceptable costs.

After obtaining this space that is the center of all worlds, the reincarnationists immediately expanded the already quite crowded Reincarnation Square, grabbing matter from the void as the cornerstone for the expansion of the Reincarnation Square.

Then, taking this cornerstone as the origin, they filled it with space fragments as bricks, tiles and gravel. Finally, the big guys among the reincarnations who were good at space abilities took action to melt the space fragments with the cornerstone from the void, and finally spliced them together with the original reincarnation space, expanding the area of the Reincarnation Square by more than ten thousand times in one fell swoop.

Although the number ten thousand times sounds like a lot, the area of the Reincarnation Square is not large. Even if it is expanded ten thousand times, it is still not as large as the place where some of the Reincarnations live on a daily basis, not to mention the size compared with a normal world.

After all, this first phase of the project is just an experimental attempt. Many big guys among the reincarnations have done things like refining space, but facing the Reincarnation Square, a special space separated from the main god space, everyone naturally has to be cautious.

Besides, the Reincarnation Square is just a place for communication. There is no need for wasteful ostentation. The current area here is more than enough for its function.

If time proves that this expansion is successful and they need a larger area of land, then it will not be too late for them to start the second, third or fourth expansion project based on their experience.

It is worth mentioning that the strange stone tablet that records the rules of this world has finally become the center of this world under the obsessive-compulsive psychology of several big guys. It is no longer isolated like the original Reincarnation Square, and careless people cannot even find its location.

However, even though the Reincarnationists have done a lot of things, they have not forgotten that there are still a group of superiors above them who are still hunting down the evil gods. Before they have enough power to fight against them, the Reincarnationists have been quiet for a while after completing their first expansion, waiting for the final result.

The frequency of issuing missions to hunt down evil gods has become lower during this period, but on the contrary, the death rate of reincarnations participating in the missions has increased a lot. Perhaps it is because their increasingly comfortable lives have made them a little lazy, or perhaps it is because the final evil gods are stronger. In short, this situation has caused a group of reincarnations to start to worry.

Although accidents are a low-probability event in general, they are inevitable events for the parties involved. The low frequency of tasks coupled with the high mortality rate have caused many reincarnations who are not confident in themselves to have the idea that it is better to die than to let their friends die. They hope that they will not be chosen at the last moment and fall in the darkness before dawn.

However, the sorrow of a small number of people cannot affect the overall peace and tranquility, especially today, during the annual celebration held to commemorate the official establishment of the Reincarnation Square.

"Touma, it smells so good, here!" Index, who was squeezed in the crowd, jumped up with all her strength and waved to Kamijou Touma.

"Really, Index, you've eaten a whole street of these weird foods, aren't you full yet?" Kamijou Touma squeezed through the crowd to Index's side. Just now, when he was paying at the last store, he didn't notice that Index had disappeared.

"But the food here is really delicious. It's the most delicious one I've ever come across!" Index said firmly, pointing at the stall in front of her.

"Is there any food in your mouth that doesn't smell good?" Kamijou Touma couldn't help but complain, and then he looked at the food that Index was pointing at. The buns with weird and creepy smiles on their faces remained silent.

Although they had tried all kinds of exotic "delicacies" at the stalls before, such as the strange-colored tonic soup made from the shells of silicon-based creatures, the fermented drink soda bean juice that was said to have been fermented for hundreds of years, and the smoothies made from slime, etc.

But if Kamijou Touma couldn't accept those delicacies only because of the ingredients, then Mr. Kamijou, the weird steamed bun in front of him who seemed to be silently mocking him, was unacceptable both physically and psychologically.

“Index, I’ll go back and see if there are any special foods that may affect people’s sense of smell, and see if I can get a refund…” Kamijou Touma turned around decisively, but Index, who had planned it in advance, hugged Kamijou Touma’s thighs without caring about the gazes of passers-by.

"Touma! Buy it for me, I want to eat it!" Index shouted loudly.

“Can you please not call my name at a time like this? It’s so embarrassing…” Kamijou Touma covered his forehead and slightly shielded his face. Even though he was the martial arts master, but thick skin was something that could not be trained easily.

"Here, I'll treat you, one portion each."

Suddenly, a familiar voice appeared beside Kamijou Touma, saying something that he might have been very happy about in the past but could not accept now.

"Mr. Baihen?!" Kamijou Touma widened his eyes in surprise, and even ignored the weird laughing bag in Baihen's hand.

Chapter 290 We are born from the same roots, why rush each other?

"Mr. Baihen, although we haven't seen each other for a while, there is no need for you to treat us to a meal as soon as we meet." Kamijou Touma declined the buns in Baihen's hand with an even more creepy smile, and he didn't notice that Index at his feet had already taken one and was about to start eating.

"It's a small problem. You treated me to a meal when we first met. Now I'm going to reciprocate by treating you to some buns to show my appreciation. Don't you see Index is enjoying her meal very much?" Bai Hen pointed at Index, who was eating silently at the side.

After Index noticed Kamijou Touma's gaze, she deliberately moved closer to Baihen and moved the remaining bun in her hand away from Kamijou Touma's sight. Although Index was busy eating the bun, Kamijou Touma knew without thinking that if Index had a free mouth, she would definitely say loudly "This is mine!"

"Ah! Ah? Ah..." Kamijou Touma let out a sound of pain, confusion, and finally relief. In the end, he simply closed his eyes, took the smiling bun from Bai Hen's hand, and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Wow! Delicious." After taking a bite of the steamed bun with a creepy smile, Kamijou Touma widened his eyes in surprise. This steamed bun could be said to be one of the most delicious foods he had ever eaten. Compared with the various special "delicacies" sold at the stalls before, there was a huge gap between them.

Kamijou Touma was unable to make any comments on special foods such as silicon-based biological nutritious soup and fermented bean juice with a century-old history, taking into account cultural differences and the gap between the worlds. Anyway, based on his taste feedback, he could only say that these things were not suitable for him - although Index enjoyed eating them all.

Foods like slime smoothies seemed to look good, but some of the raw materials were unacceptable to Kamijou Touma, so Index ate them more happily. Kamijou Touma judged from her expression that the food should taste pretty good and might be more in line with the appetite of an ordinary person like himself.

After all, although Index eats everything and has a voracious appetite, she is still a human being after all, and her eating habits and tastes are more like those of humans.

And now, the taste of this bun, which made Index hug his thighs in the street and act like a spoiled brat, was indeed worthy of the tiny dignity that Index had given up, and made Kamijou Touma immersed in its supreme deliciousness.

Even Kamijou Touma felt that there was nothing wrong with the weird shape and had the urge to get another one.

"Eh? Wait, why did I eat this bun just now? It's really delicious..." Kamijou Touma looked at his half-extended right hand and suddenly realized something very strange.

"Have you finally realized it? Over-reliance on Imagine Breaker is not a good thing. Don't worry, it's okay to eat this bun, don't worry about Index." Seeing Kamijou Touma's somewhat flustered expression, Bai Hen comforted him in time.
