After all, the Flower of Life might represent the blessing of Nabelius, the "Ruler of Life," which could be a blessing of a higher level than the Eye of God.
At Yin Kong's recommendation, Yoko Okino also put her fingers together and made a praying gesture.
boom!boom!boom……
Zhongli's advice was naturally correct. After Miss Yangzi tried her best to visualize the "Flower of Life" in front of her, she was able to hear her own incredibly restless and powerful heartbeat.
If what she felt just now was a gentle spring, then what she felt now was an eruption of vitality.
Yoko Okino suddenly opened her eyes, feeling a surge of energy that desperately needed to be released.
Seeing that Miss Idol's complexion suddenly became incredibly rosy, even giving the illusion of being "too healthy," Yin Kong nodded slightly.
It seems that even an unenhanced one-star artifact can have an exceptionally significant effect on ordinary people.
That makes sense. Even a 10% increase in health points can make a huge difference, let alone for Miss Idol, where the boost from a Flower of Life is far greater.
"Yin Kong, what should I do now?"
Seeing that Yin Kong had not given any further instructions, Miss Yoko couldn't help but ask.
She felt better than ever before, but it was precisely because she felt so good that she inevitably developed a sense of unreality, as if she were afraid of losing what she had.
Yin Kong also came to his senses:
"Yes, it's over. Now, Yoko, you can do whatever you want. Just pray every now and then to maintain the effect of the Flower of Life."
"Is this really the end?"
Yoko Okino was still somewhat incredulous. After all, even Paimon, who borrowed the power of [Barbatos's Juvenile Form], had at least signed a cat-slave contract. She, on the other hand, only had to pray every now and then.
"Really, no other price needs to be paid?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Kong couldn't help but chuckle, and Paimeng immediately laughed excitedly as well:
"Hehehe, it seems that Miss Yoko is quite worried."
"That's right, Yin Kong lied to you. The price for using the relic was that you had to help me take care of the [Barbatos Infant Form]..."
Hearing Paimon say this, Miss Idol was finally convinced that there were indeed no more additional conditions.
Yoko Okino gradually began to understand why Yoko was so doting on Paimon.
Besides Paimon being incredibly adorable, her witty banter always manages to soothe people's anxieties with ease.
Chapter 76 Challenge Mode
Seeing the lingering confusion on Yoko's face, Yin Kong thought for a moment and said:
"In that case, could I ask Miss Yoko to show Fischl around the city?"
Hearing another unfamiliar new name from Yin Kong, Yoko Okino quickly guessed that this was probably another member of an agency.
Sure enough, little Amy soon appeared in the apartment:
"The bells of consecration shall toll! The time for judgment has come! Praise be to those who call for redemption! Ah, I have seen the future of this city, bowing before this noble princess! Oh ho ho ho..."
Originally, Yin Kong planned to send Wan Ye and Xiao Lu, the "golden duo," to the two exploration mission slots.
With their abilities, they might be able to gather some useful information under the cover of night.
However, considering that Little Amy had been left in the backstage almost the entire time since she was chosen, and was so bored she was practically growing mushrooms, Yin Kong thought for a moment before Aoyama Nanami left work and decided to cut Manyo into Fischl.
Hearing Fischl's signature laugh, Yoko found herself momentarily at a loss for words.
After all, even among the many characters, Amy is quite unique.
Yoko Okino certainly knew about chuunibyou (middle school syndrome). Although Fischl's clothes, manner of speaking, and demeanor matched her impression of chuunibyou girls, since she was Yin Kong's friend, what she said should be true, right?
Could this Miss Fischl really be a princess?
Just as Miss Idol was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Oz timely explained:
"What the young lady means is that she is very much looking forward to the rest of the tour."
Although it was already evening, Tokyo's nightlife was already very lively, even in the 1990s.
Ms. Yoko exclaimed in shock:
"Crow, it's... it's... talking?"
Oz said in an elegant tone:
"Oh, why be surprised by such a trivial matter, my friend?"
Paimon nodded, speaking with the air of someone who had been there:
“Indeed, Miss Yoko, it’s just a talking crow. There’s nothing to make a fuss about.”
Seeing everyone's nonchalant expressions, Yoko Okino immediately felt ashamed and said:
"I'm sorry, I was just ignorant."
Oz introduced himself:
"It's alright, beautiful lady. This is my master, Princess Fischl von Rufschloss Nafidott from the otherworldly Pure Land of the Night, and I am her servant, the Night Raven, Oswald Hefnavan. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Fischl partially covered her left eye with her hand, emitting a mysterious, eerie blue light.
"Rejoice! To embark on this journey alongside the condemned Princess Fischl is something you should be proud of for the rest of your life!"
Another world? A serene paradise? A princess condemned to punishment?
Yoko Okino's expression unconsciously became serious. After all, these titles, along with the long names of Fischl and Oz, sounded extraordinary.
Princess Fischl must be just as formidable as Lady Skork, right?
Yin Kong translated with a smile:
“Miss Yoko, there’s no need to be nervous. Just call Fischl and Oz.”
“That’s right, that’s right.” Paimon nodded and reminded him, “When you don’t understand Fischl’s words, just ask Oz, and he will translate for you.”
Oz immediately replied, "I am apprehensive. This is not a translation, but merely a message conveying the princess's will."
Miss Yoko noted down Paimon's reminder, but soon exclaimed in surprise:
"Paimon, aren't you coming with us?"
In her memory, this little guy was always the most enthusiastic when it came to eating, drinking, and having fun.
Paimon shook his head, saying matter-of-factly:
"No, you guys go have fun, I need to keep the travelers company."
Although she doesn't seem to be able to help much with the training now, she can sleep better even when she's just by being by Yin Kong's side.
After Fischl and Ms. Yoko went out together, Yin Kong also began his training for the day as usual.
However, unlike yesterday, he first opened the limited-time event interface and switched the [Twelve Trials] from the original [Easy Mode] to the highest difficulty [Challenge Mode].
To be honest, he was still a little curious about what abilities those demon worshippers had acquired.
Upon entering the instance, there was still a thin mist and a completely unfamiliar cobblestone path.
But this time, Yin Kong noticed something was wrong almost instantly.
Resentment, bitterness, madness...
Just by inhaling a little mist while breathing, Yin Kong felt a surge of negative emotions welling up from the bottom of his heart.
"These must all be the resentments of those victims before they died..."
Zhong Li's calm and reliable voice immediately resonated in Yin Kong's heart.
Clearly, this time Yin Kong no longer needs to fight alone.
After all, he had already received the real rewards, so even if he drove the Nata warship in and raced around, it was entirely up to him.
Of course, this is on the premise that he has already drawn those characters.
"Ordinary people's senses are certainly not as sensitive as those of travelers, so even if they inhale a lot of fog, they will only feel agitated and lose their vigilance."
Although Yin Kong managed to calm himself down, the interference of these resentful thoughts prevented him from discerning the footsteps hidden in the fog as keenly as before.
Suddenly sensing something, he whirled around and swung his gun in a sweeping motion—
A sharp throwing knife was deflected by the Black Tassel Spear and embedded diagonally into the ground.
Have even the methods of attack become more diverse?
Even without Zhongli's reminder, Yin Kong had already noticed that the color of the throwing knife was somewhat strange, clearly indicating that it had been pre-treated with anesthetic or even poison.
Yin Kong became increasingly cautious, but this time his opponent was clearly much more cautious than in the previous "Easy Mode".
Taking advantage of the fog, the opponent was in no hurry to launch a sneak attack, but instead kept throwing flying knives to probe from outside Yin Kong's perception range.
Yin Kong naturally tried to retaliate, pulling out the throwing knives stuck in the ground and shooting them in the direction of the sneak attack.
But each attempt yielded no results; the opponent's movements within the fog were clearly very agile.
Just when Yin Kong thought this probing would continue, four large characters suddenly appeared—
[Challenge Failed]
He was stunned for a moment, only then realizing that the [Challenge Mode] actually had a time limit.
If you cannot eliminate the enemy within five minutes, the challenge will be automatically considered a failure.
It seems that trying to clear the Challenge Mode entirely on my own is indeed presumptuous of me.
Once he came to his senses, Yin Kong wasn't discouraged and quickly reopened the dungeon.
However, just as he was about to go to Zhongli in desperation, he heard Wan Ye suddenly say:
"Yin Kong, I have an idea, may I give it a try?"
Chapter 77 Following the Wind
"Traveler, since you can control our bodies to fight, why don't we control yours instead?"
The four characters assigned to the combat team are actually directly controlled by Yin Kong.
However, under normal circumstances, unless the character's consciousness is already in an exploration and dispatch state and is unable to spare any attention, Yin Kong will entrust their bodies to the character's own consciousness for control during battle.
After all, their combat experience far surpasses that of his own.
We also need to become more skilled and flexible in using elemental powers.
Especially Zhongli, Yin Kong seriously suspected that if he were to control him, most of the time, apart from [Impregnable] and [Heavenly Movement], he would just be standing there fighting with the demons.
However, Yin Kong did not expect that Wan Ye would actually want to reverse the Heavenly Gang and take control of his body.
"That's possible, but what are you planning to do, Wan Ye?"
Yin Kong tried it out and found that as long as he was willing to authorize, he could indeed have the consciousness of other characters help "manage" his body.
If he doesn't want to, he can cancel the "managed" status at any time and regain control of his body.
However, given Wan Ye's character, Yin Kong was not worried at all about what harmful actions the other party might take.
Wan Ye chuckled softly and replied:
"Because in this way, Mr. Zhongli and I might be able to skip the verbal instruction and go directly to the stage of teaching by example."
Yin Kong suddenly realized:
"You mean, you can pass on your combat experience to me in this way?"
Wan Ye nodded and said:
"That's right. Because I'm not a professional teacher, I can't find the right words to describe many of my sword techniques and insights, making it even more difficult to teach them to others."
However, if you could empathize with all the insights I gain during battle, it might make your training twice as effective.
Zhongli suddenly spoke up and said:
"I see. It is indeed a very good idea. Experiencing it firsthand is far more effective than being lectured ten times by others."
However, every coin has two sides. If Mr. Manyo intends to teach in this way, I think there is one more point that needs special attention.
Kaedehara Manyo asked curiously:
"Oh, Mr. Zhongli, please enlighten me."
