"Could the third reward be a 'bug arrow'?"
Qin Chuan stroked his chin, and this idea popped into his mind.
As for whether it is true or not, he will know once he goes to Rome and gets the "insect arrow" from Polnareff.
If the third option is indeed the Insect Arrow, it should appear after he obtains it.
But... this also means that the reward options don't necessarily mean things Qin Chuan has encountered before.
There is also a certain probability that something Qin Chuan has never encountered before will appear.
Chapter 240 Using Insect Arrows!
Although the main quest was completed, no new notifications popped up.
Qin Chuan wasn't in a hurry. He remembered that achievements would only pop up after he exited the mission world, so he probably wouldn't get a notification while in the mission world.
Before heading to Rome to retrieve the "Insect Arrow" from Polnareff, Qin Chuan searched through his notebook and eventually found the organization's internal communication software.
Fortunately, Diablo never allowed anyone to get close to him, so he never considered the possibility that someone else might use the laptop.
The communication software within the "Passion" organization had no security measures; it could be used immediately upon opening, which made things convenient for Qin Chuan.
Soon, Qin Chuan found Bucciarati's name in the messaging app and sent him a new command:
"By the time you see this message, the escort mission will be over, and you are now free to move around as you please."
"But before you are free to move around, you need to find a place to meet nearby and send me the meeting point."
"I will come to meet you in person next."
Qin Chuan issued the orders to Bucciarati's team in the same tone that Diavolo used when he was the organization's boss.
After all, if Qin Chuan had come up to them and said, "Your organization's BOSS is dead," anyone who saw his order would have been suspicious.
The Bucciarati squad has not yet officially decided to betray Diavolo, so Diavolo's orders are absolute within the organization.
As for why he asked Bucciarati's team to find a meeting place and sent him the location... it was because Qin Chuan planned to harvest their Stand abilities as well.
Anyway, as long as you eat some Stand fragments, you can gain their abilities without killing them. As the price for helping them get rid of Diavolo, it should be a worthwhile deal, right?
After sending the command, Qin Chuan waited for a while, but did not receive a reply from Bucciarati, so he temporarily closed his laptop.
Bucciarati's team is probably still on the train fighting the organization's traitors—the members of the assassination squad. They'll see their orders once they've finished the fight.
They might be confused, but no one in the "Passion" organization knew the true identity of Diablo, the BOSS, so they wouldn't question this order.
They would simply obey orders and wait for Qin Chuan to arrive.
Incidentally, Qin Chuan also did a good deed—he sent orders to some of his subordinates via communication software to lift the blockade order against Polunarev.
After all, Diavolo believed that Polnareff was already dead, so it was reasonable to lift the orders that blocked Polnareff's communications.
Now, Polnareff can finally make contact with the outside world.
……
In the hotel, Polunarev sat upright in his wheelchair, holding the "insect arrow" he had agreed to use with Qin Chuan.
The biggest difference between the "Insect Arrow" and other "arrows" is just like its name suggests—a golden beetle is carved on the arrowhead of the "Insect Arrow".
This marking was probably added to distinguish this "insect arrow" from other ordinary "arrows".
After all, other "arrows" cannot cause a Stand to evolve even if they pierce it, but this "insect arrow" can. The two are on completely different levels.
Although he didn't know how long it would take Qin Chuan to arrive quickly, he figured it would take at least an hour to get from Venice to Rome.
However, he soon realized that he was overthinking things. About ten minutes after ending the call with Qin Chuan, he heard a knock on the door.
He paused for a moment, then pushed his wheelchair over and opened the door, where he saw Qin Chuan standing smiling at the entrance.
This was completely different from the merciless attitude Polnareff had seen in the video earlier—but since that attitude was directed at Diavolo, Polnareff thought it was normal.
"As agreed, I've come to collect the insect arrow."
Qin Chuan closed the door and looked at the "insect arrow" in Polnareff's hand—the golden beetle relief on it testified to the arrow's special nature.
"Of course, no problem. This arrow is yours. How you use it after that is none of my business."
Polnareff nodded and handed the "insect arrow" to Qin Chuan without the slightest hesitation.
On one hand, he didn't really covet the "arrow" that could awaken a Stand; on the other hand, he no longer had enough power to control the evolved Stand.
After his Stand, "Silver Chariot," evolved, he named it "Silver Chariot Requiem"—but when he first evolved his Stand, he clearly felt it had a tendency to go out of control...
Therefore, he immediately took back the "Insect Arrow" from "Silver Chariot Requiem" and made it revert back to "Silver Chariot".
“This ‘Insect Arrow’ can allow a Stand to evolve, but based on my previous experience, in order to keep the Stand in the evolved ‘Requiem’ state, the Insect Arrow must be kept on the Stand for a long time.”
Polnareff explained to Qin Chuan based on his previous experience.
"So, once you decide to use this arrow to evolve your Stand... once you succeed, you probably won't be able to remove this 'insect arrow' from your Stand anymore. You need to be prepared for that."
"of course."
Qin Chuan nodded. In any case, if it was just an "arrow" to awaken a substitute, he already had one in the real world, so he didn't need a second one as a backup.
So, embedding this "insect arrow" inside its own "blackbird" body is also a good choice.
not to mention……
You can choose two of the following rewards to take out of this world.
1. Hirose Koichi's passport
2. Dell C400 Laptop
3. Arrow
After coming into contact with the "Insect Arrow", Qin Chuan's system prompt window indeed changed. The third option, which had previously displayed "Not Acquired", was now "Arrow".
Although it wasn't labeled as an insect arrow, this was the only "arrow" Qin Chuan had just come into contact with, so the option was undoubtedly the "insect arrow" in Qin Chuan's hand.
3.8 What would happen if you embedded an insect arrow inside "Blackbird Requiem" and then chose another insect arrow from the reward options?
Do you want to take two insect arrows with you from the mission world?
A hint of interest appeared on Qin Chuan's face as he softly called out:
"Blackbird".
The next moment, the figure of "Blackbird" appeared behind Qin Chuan.
"Is this your Stand? Is it called Blackbird?"
Polnareff looked at the black figure behind Qin Chuan and nodded.
"So……"
Qin Chuan toyed with the insect arrow in his hand, looked at the "black bird" beside him, and then forcefully stabbed the "insect arrow" into the black bird's chest.
Under Qin Chuan's control, the "Blackbird" remained unresponsive and was easily pierced by the "Insect Arrow".
Then, a burst of intense light erupted from the point of penetration.
Chapter 241 The Power of Blackbird's Requiem
The two Requiem Stands that appeared in the original work—"Gold Experience Requiem" and "Silver Chariot Requiem"—seem to have originated from the original Stands.
The body of the "Silver Chariot" melted like liquid, and what emerged from it was the "Silver Chariot Requiem".
The body of "Gold Experience" is like a shattered shell, as if it is shedding its skin, and "Gold Experience Requiem" emerges from its shed shell.
This time, Qin Chuan's "Blackbird" also encountered a similar situation.
In a burst of light, the "Blackbird's" black body seemed to turn into smoke, gradually spreading outwards.
From the dissipating black smoke emerged Qin Chuan's new stand-in—the "Black Bird Requiem"!
"So it seems that even including my Stand, all the Requiems that appear start with a color... Does evolving into a Requiem require the Stand to have a color?"
As Qin Chuan watched the new Stand, "Blackbird Requiem," emerge from the black smoke, a strange thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment, and soon Qin Chuan's attention was completely focused on the brand-new substitute.
The current "Blackbird Requiem" still retains its black body, but its design has undergone significant changes. 27
Her body, which was originally unadorned, now had a robe-like garment, and the bird feather shawl on her shoulders had disappeared, replaced by a pair of black wings that looked like bird wings on her back.
On the Stand's chest, a raised "insect arrow" shaped substance was clearly visible—the "insect arrow" had completely merged with "Blackbird Requiem".
Of course, the changes in appearance are not important; what Qin Chuan cares about is the new ability of "Blackbird Requiem".
The ability of the Requiem Stand is unrelated to the original Stand; it's not an addition to the original ability, but a completely new ability. The same applies to the Blackbird Requiem Stand.
"It seems you can perfectly control your Stand."
Polnareff looked at the "Blackbird Requiem" standing next to Qin Chuan and couldn't help but sigh.
Polnareff's physical condition had deteriorated significantly, so he could sense that he was unable to control "Silver Chariot Requiem," but Qin Chuan's "Blackbird Requiem" was clearly not out of control:
"So? Do you know about your Stand's new ability now?"
"Hmm, not bad ability."
A smile appeared on Qin Chuan's face—"Blackbird Requiem" still lacked the ability to think for itself, but Qin Chuan had already sensed its power.
Simply put, the ability of "Blackbird Requiem" is "fixed result".
Generally speaking, to achieve a certain "result", one must pay a certain "price" and go through a certain "process".
For example, if Qin Chuan's desired "result" is to defeat Frieza, then Qin Chuan would need to spend a certain amount of time as a "cost" and go through the "process" of training and fighting to achieve this result.
However, if Qin Chuan uses the ability of "Blackbird Requiem", he can directly fix the "result" of "defeating Frieza" by paying some reward.
Once the "outcome" of "defeating Frieza" is determined, no matter what Qin Chuan does, Frieza will inevitably be defeated by him, and the "process" and "cost" no longer matter.
Of course, the more difficult the "result," the higher the reward will be.
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan looked at Polnareff.
"……What's wrong?"
Suddenly being stared at by Qin Chuan, Polnareff was taken aback, wondering why Qin Chuan was looking at him with such a strange gaze.
However, the next moment, he felt the wheelchair he was sitting in suddenly shake violently, as if some part of the wheelchair had broken off. The entire wheelchair instantly fell apart, and he was caught off guard and fell directly to the floor.
Bang!
"Hiss... What happened? Why did the wheelchair suddenly break down?"
Seeing Polnareff fall to the ground, Qin Chuan's eyes flashed—it was because he had just tested the effect of "Blackbird Requiem".
He fixed the "outcome" that "Polunarev's wheelchair will break down," and the payment was merely a negligible amount of "air."
This is already a kind of wish fulfillment, although a certain amount of compensation is required. However, the easier something is to accomplish, the less compensation is required.
Given Qin Chuan's current combat strength, there are too many things he can do, so he probably only needs to pay a very small reward to accomplish the vast majority of "results".
"Then... how about repairing Polnareff's wheelchair?"
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan looked at Polnareff's broken wheelchair again, and with that thought in mind, activated the "Blackbird Requiem" ability once more.
The next moment, as if time had reversed, Polnareff's wheelchair parts suddenly began to shake violently, and then, to Polnareff's horrified gaze, they reassembled themselves into a complete wheelchair.
Even his own body was surrounded by these wheelchair parts, and after the wheelchair automatically repaired itself, he was already sitting in the wheelchair.
At this point, if Polnareff still didn't understand why the wheelchair had suddenly fallen apart, he would seem rather foolish.
"This... could it be your Stand ability?"
"That's right. The ability of 'Blackbird Requiem' can fix the 'result' I want to see by paying a certain reward, turning it into an inevitable event."
Qin Chuan didn't try to hide anything, since this would be the last time he met Polnareff, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
Polnareff is a decent character after all, and since we won't be seeing each other again, it doesn't matter if we talk about it.
"I see, what a terrifying ability..."
Polnareff was also somewhat surprised. Although he knew that the Stand's abilities would definitely increase after further evolution, he did not expect it to increase to such an extent.
Isn't this already considered manipulating cause and effect?
In fact, Polnareff 530 had never seen his own "Silver Chariot Requiem"—this Stand's abilities were soul manipulation and biological evolution, which were also quite extraordinary abilities.
