Jiang Ran had confirmed with Prigog Nissen beforehand that the future seen through his "predicting death" ability was based on the assumption that Jiang Ran would not use it. This meant that in the future after Jiang Ran's death, he would only have his Level 1 Super-Dimensional Eyes to use. In other words, in the future after Jiang Ran's death, he would not have the ability to read minds.
Knowing this will be of great help to Jiang Ran's next actions.
While the woodcutter was still walking slowly, Jiang Ran bent over and took a shortcut to reach the exit of the woods first. Then he took off his school uniform without hesitation and threw it on the side of the road. Then he hid in the woods again naked in only a pair of boxer briefs, looking very embarrassed.
The woodcutter, who was completely unaware of this, walked back to the village along the main road as usual. When he found a rare set of clothes dropped on the roadside, he pretended to ask a few questions, "Oh, who dropped these clothes?" "If no one agrees, they will belong to me?" Then he quickly stuffed the clothes into his bag, left the woods and returned to the village at a fast pace, as if he was afraid that the owner would catch up and ask him for the clothes back.
(Mr. Nissen: Ah... this... why did you take off your clothes and give them to him?)
Prigok Nissen was almost unable to look at Jiang Ran, but Jiang Ran didn't care about his predicament.
(Jiang Ran: You will know soon.)
Jiang Ran opened his palm, silently thinking "generate photo." Then, after a flash, the photo of the "death scene" he had just seen appeared in his hand. Comparing the death time displayed in the corner of the photo with the current time (Jiang Ran could see the time in the current world in his field of vision), Jiang Ran calculated that he had only 300 seconds left until his "death."
(Mr. Nissen: It's already running out of time, Jiang Yan! Why don't you take action??)
Jiang Ran ignored the stupid loli's shouting and moved silently deeper into the woods. Finally, he found a place with the densest vegetation and hid himself there. Even though his body was covered with lumps from mosquito bites, he didn't even frown.
(Jiang Ran: 200 seconds left.)
(Ms. Nissen: Eh? That's not right! Didn't you say there was a solution? So your solution was to take off my clothes and hide naked in the plastic forest? This is too stupid!!)
(Jiang Ran: My Lord, please be patient. We will have a result soon...Besides this, I would like to ask you a few more questions. Is this your first time entering a parallel world?)
(Mr. Nissen: At this moment, you still have the mind to ask these irrelevant questions?)
Prigok Nissen felt like she was going crazy. Wasn't this boy nervous at all? Or was he just a fool? There must have been something wrong when I first assessed his abilities!
(Jiang Ran: I have completed all the actions I should take. All that remains is to wait. If you cannot accept this, then consider it as the fulfillment of my last wish, right?)
(Ms. Nissen: ...I...I really...never mind. I give in. Okay, ask whatever you want.)
Jiang Ran even expressed his "last wish", so Prigok Nissen didn't have anything more to say.
Prigok Nissen told Jiang Ran that this wasn't her first time entering a parallel world. As part of a divine being, she would occasionally encounter highly adaptable souls like Jiang Ran, and they would travel to parallel worlds together to assist in completing missions. Of all the parallel worlds Prigok Nissen had visited before, the most challenging had been "nightmare-level," and this time, she hadn't expected to reach an "impossible-level" world all at once.
(Ms. Nissen: The difficulty of the parallel world is directly proportional to the strength of the inherent ability, the strength of the curse, and the strength of the time traveler. However, you will be matched to the "impossible level". I think there must be some problem during the matching...)
Prigok Nissen didn't bother to be polite with Jiang Ran. She spoke frankly, because she couldn't believe the naked Jiang Ran at all. This boy, who had just arrived in a parallel world and stripped himself down to his underwear, could really conquer an "impossible level" world? It was simply wishful thinking.
Meanwhile, the information Prigog Nissen provided was entirely within Jiang Ran's scope. Since each parallel world was different, and Prigog Nissen was also visiting Prison Planet for the first time, she couldn't provide Jiang Ran with any information about this world. To put it in a literal way, Prigog Nissen's value to Jiang Ran was like an instruction manual for the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye. Once Jiang Ran understood the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye, she would be reduced to a useless, foolish young woman.
(Jiang Ran: If that's the case, then Master Nisen doesn't understand my curse either?)
(Lord Nissen: What's the name of your curse?)
(Jiang Ran: Purgatory for the Careless.)
(Mr. Nissen: Well, I haven’t encountered this before.)
(Jiang Ran: Let’s not talk about that for now. Let’s start the final 30-second countdown.)
The final countdown that suddenly began brought Prigok Nissen, who had already relaxed, back to reality. 30 seconds, Jiang Ran only had the last 30 seconds left to live!
As "Seven", Prigok Nissen did not forget her mission. She immediately blocked the mind sharing with Jiang Ran and made preparations. Once she confirmed that Jiang Ran would be killed, she would make the Super-Dimensional Eye self-destruct before the enemy. The energy of the self-destruction was enough to kill Jiang Ran, and such a death would be judged as suicide.
(As long as I kill myself, I won't let the "Evil God Camp" get any extra rewards, and my mission will be accomplished.)
1.8 - Burning Flames (Update)
(29…28…27…)
Jiang Ran counted silently in his mind, and at the same time synchronized the time with Prigok Nissen.
Life or death will soon be decided.
At this critical moment of life and death, even a calm and composed person like Jiang Ran couldn't help but tremble slightly - but he was not afraid of death, he was afraid that his death would bring trouble to his parents.
(10…9…)
Just as Jiang Ran counted to nine, a sudden, loud bang erupted from the sky, jarring his ears. The clouds in the sky were violently split apart, as if something were flying towards him from afar. Then, another terrifying "boom!" emanated from the direction of the village, as if something heavy had crashed to the ground. The vibrations spread through the woods, startling countless birds and sending them flying. The atmosphere before death became even more terrifying.
(8…7…6…)
Jiang Ran resisted the urge to climb the tree to see what was going on. He continued counting silently, and when he reached "4", a pillar of fire suddenly burst into flames in the direction of the village! The scarlet flames dyed half the sky red, and the billowing flames rushed straight to the sky, as if to burn the sky as well!
Although Jiang Ran was hiding in the woods one or two kilometers away, he could still feel the rolling heat waves of the fire column. The extremely high temperature had even caused the surrounding trees to spontaneously combust without any open flames, not to mention what would happen to the people who were directly hit by the fire column.
(Ms. Nissen: Fire, pillar of fire! It's the pillar of fire from the death scene! But but but why did the pillar of fire appear so early?!?)
Jiang Ran ignored the silly loli and continued counting silently. When he counted to "2", there was another loud noise, as if something flew away at a high speed. The clouds in the sky were cut open again, but this time the wide blue sky was revealed.
(Jiang Ran: 1…0…time’s up.)
The countdown ended, and Jiang Ran did not die. Although it was unknown how long he could live, at least he changed his future which was bound to end in death.
(Jiang Ran: Death came early, but the plan went smoothly.)
(Ms. Nissen: Hmm? W-what's over? What do you mean the baptism of death came early? Didn't you baptize yourself?)
Prigok Nissen was a little confused. She wanted to celebrate with Jiang Ran for escaping death, but she didn't understand what riddle Jiang Ran was talking about.
(Jiang Ran: You don’t understand?)
(Mr. Nissen: I don’t understand. Please tell me what’s going on!)
Prigok Nissen didn't realize that Jiang Ran had changed the way he addressed her at this time.
(Jiang Ran: Think about it yourself, I'm going to take action now.)
(Ms. Nissen: No, no, no! You have to tell me while you're doing it, woooooooooooooo!!!)
Jiang Ran's indifference made Prigok Nissen start to throw a tantrum, saying "I don't care, I don't care, I just want to listen, I want your explanation." This stupid loli's devilish voice that went straight into her head was impossible to block out. In the end, Jiang Ran was so annoyed that he had to briefly explain the basis for his actions.
Jiang Ran believed that, given his style, after entering this parallel world, he would indeed attempt to communicate with the nearby village to gain local intelligence. After all, "Lady Nisen knows nothing" (Jiang Ran emphasized). However, Jiang Ran didn't believe that with his communication skills, he would inexplicably be in danger of death upon arriving in the village. Moreover, it was unlikely that such an ordinary village could harbor someone with such terrifying power. Even if there was, there was no reason for them to kill him immediately.
After ruling out these possibilities, the enemy was most likely coming from outside the village, and came with a clear intention to kill Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran had nothing to do with this world. If he had to find a reason for his death, it would be his identity as a "traveler" - in this "impossible-level" "Prison Star", someone was hunting "traversers".
Since the enemy was specifically seeking to kill him, it meant they had the ability to determine his location in the parallel world. However, Jiang Ran didn't die the moment he landed in the "Death Future." In fact, he survived for 13 minutes. What did this mean? It meant that even if the enemy knew his location, it would still take time for them to arrive. Therefore, until they arrived, Jiang Ran was safe and could act with confidence.
From the death scene, we can infer that the large cracks on the ground were likely caused by the enemy landing from the air, which indicates that the enemy's mode of movement was flying. Furthermore, from the landing position, the location of the fire column, and the position and reactions of the villagers, it is easy to see that the enemy killed Jiang Ran immediately after landing, without any unnecessary intervention. This means that the enemy is likely not a massacrer and will leave once the "Traveler" is confirmed to have been killed.
The last and most important point is, how did the enemy identify Jiang Ran as the "Crossover" after arriving at the scene?
Jiang Ran believes there are two possibilities: one is based on their attire, as the "travelers" who have just arrived in the other world are basically wearing strange clothes; the other is that the enemy has the ability to sense who the "travelers" are.
(Jiang Ran: Judging from the results, the enemy only judged based on clothing. I hope he won't realize that he killed the wrong person later.)
(Ms. Nissen: Well, if the enemy is able to sense the Crossover, wouldn't you be dead?)
(Jiang Ran: No, I have a backup plan.)
(Ms. Nissen: Eh? What's the backup plan?)
(Jiang Ran: Think about it yourself, silly.)
(Mr. Nissen: What? What did you call me?)
(Jiang Ran: Stupid Prigok Nissen, or simply Stupid.)
Jiang Ran's teasing really pissed Prigok Nissen off. She immediately started yelling, "Stupid Jiang Yan, stupid Jiang Yan!" and adding some elementary school-style slang like, "The one who calls others stupid is the biggest idiot." Perhaps Jiang Ran's tolerance had improved, and this time he ignored the silly little girl's nagging. He didn't even tell her his backup plan until she got so annoyed that she became annoyed.
However, this seemingly winning outcome for Jiang Ran was actually a win-win situation for both sides.
Prigok Nissen's fundamental reason for questioning Jiang Ran's logic was to gain a more comprehensive understanding of his abilities. If his abilities weren't up to par, even if there was no immediate threat of death, she would have the Super-Dimensional Eye self-destruct to kill Jiang Ran, thus freeing up a spot for the "Good God Camp" to recruit a new "pawn."
Now, although she didn't hear the entire plan, Prigok Nissen had already made a judgment. She thought Jiang Ran was indeed capable. The fact that he had just changed the "future of certain death" was the best proof, and his calm state throughout the entire operation deserved extra points.
(But this doesn’t mean I agree with you.)
·
A huge column of fire and smoke filled the sky. Jiang Ran took advantage of the villagers' escape to sneak into the village. He grabbed some clothes and food, then returned to the woods.
(Benni: Eh? Why are you back in the Plastic Forest? Aren’t you afraid the enemy will come and kill you again?)
(Jiang Ran: If the enemy has the ability to continuously grasp my position, then it doesn't matter where I escape to.)
Jiang Ran dismissed the silly little girl with a single sentence, then settled down to his own thoughts. For Jiang Ran, now without the protection of the "future death screen," he could die at any time in this "impossible level" world. To reduce the risk of sudden death, Jiang Ran's most important task right now was to quickly capture a member of the opposite sex and have them confess their love. But before that, Jiang Ran had one thing he had been putting off for a long time:
It was time for him to study his curse.
1.9 - Purgatory of the Careless
=====
Soul Curse: Purgatory of the Heartless
Curse content:
1. Every 30 natural days, a person of the opposite sex (regardless of race) must sincerely confess their love to them. If this is not done within 30 natural days, the cursed person will die immediately.
2. Every time you receive a sincere confession, the 30-day countdown will be reset, but the confession of the same individual can only be used once;
3. You cannot accept any form of confession from the opposite sex. If you do accept, one energy point of the Super-Dimensional Eye will be deducted for each acceptance. In addition, if you repeatedly accept the confession of the same individual, the corresponding number of energy points will be deducted. When the energy points are negative, the cursed person will die immediately.
4. Every time a confession is accepted, the timer will be reduced by 1 natural day (including the current timer). When the timer is less than or equal to 1 natural days, the cursed person will die immediately.
=====
After reading the curse, Jiang Ran held his forehead. This curse itself was disgusting, but what was even more disgusting was that it had a "dream connection" with the "mission" and the "super-dimensional divine eye"!
(The third mission requires that the "One and Only Demon God, the Unspeakable Name" confess his love to me and agree to return to Earth with me...)
(The core ability of the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye, "Predicting Death Scenes," requires energy points to be consumed. The main source of energy points is confessions from the opposite sex...)
(The Curse of the Heartless Purgatory requires me to constantly have the opposite sex confess to me, but if I accept the confession, there will be severe punishment...)
Jiang Ran sorted out the relationship between these three and finally came to the conclusion that he must constantly seduce the opposite sex to confess to him, and that confession must be the kind of confession of real feelings, and then reject them, repeating this cycle until he achieved the ultimate mission: to seduce the "One and Only Demon God, the Unspeakable Name".
(Benni: To put it simply, it means being a sea king! Being a scumbag! Did I summarize it well, Jiang Yan? However, this kind of difficult task might be a bit difficult for an idiot like you, hahahaha!)
The stupid loli's IQ is always used in useless places. At such times, Jiang Ran always has the urge to dig out his right eye.
(Jiang Ran: Wow, that's a pretty good summary, Nisen-sama. By the way, Nisen-sama, is there any way to obtain the "Universal Stone" in the parallel world?)
(Benni: There's nothing I can do about it. Anyway, I haven't encountered this person in any of the parallel worlds I've visited. Huh? You finally found your conscience and called me back...)
(Jiang Ran: Thank you, Benni.)
The silly loli didn't have time to be happy before she was pissed off again by Jiang Ran. Jiang Ran was a guy who didn't like to hold grudges overnight, because he would repay any grudge that could be taken on the spot.
After being teased by Jiang Ran, Benni was so angry that she kept cursing, but Jiang Ran ignored her and started to concentrate on thinking about his next move.
Jiang Ran believes that although the "missions" bound to him, "Inherent Ability: Super-Dimensional Divine Eye" and "Soul Curse: Purgatory of the Heartless" are quite troublesome, fortunately they are not completely unsolvable.
Therefore, Jiang Ran's plan remains unchanged, and his top priority is still to conquer a woman as quickly as possible and guide her to confess to him.
However, if you think about this goal carefully, you will find that it is actually contradictory.
To conquer someone means to take the initiative to pursue them, but the ultimate goal is to make them confess their love to you. This means that Jiang Ran has to find a way to make them pursue him, which is a hundred times more difficult than ordinary pursuit.
(Ben Ni: Humph, stupid Jiang Yan, are you worried about how to pursue girls? Humph, I can teach you, as long as you respectfully address me as...)
(Jiang Ran: Oh? Benni, have you ever been in a relationship?)
Jiang Ran hit the stupid loli's weak spot directly.
(Benni: Love?! Of course I've been in love before! Don't underestimate me, I've got tons of experience! Oh, and I even know the unified XP for men on Earth! You guys love black silk the most, right? And, and giant-faced babes, I know all about that too! Love is a piece of cake for me!!)
(Jiang Ran: Awesome, awesome! I admire you.)
As Jiang Ran expected, the silly little girl was indeed an idiot. Jiang Ran didn't believe that gods could fall in love. If he wanted to rely on the silly little girl to teach him how to fall in love, he might as well pick up a stone from the roadside and see if the stone would speak.
After determining the next target, Jiang Ran found a high place nearby to confirm the surrounding environment. He found that the only village nearby was the one that had just been "attacked".
Thanks to the scattered locations of the houses in the village, after the huge column of fire dissipated, only a few houses close to the column of fire burned up due to the high temperature. On the other hand, the fire outside the woods was blown out by the sudden strong wind - speaking of which, this strong wind was caused by the "enemy" when he left. Jiang Ran had felt the airflow caused by fighter jets flying overhead when he watched an air show before, but that airflow was not as strong as the wind caused by the enemy when he flew away.
From this, we can see that this is definitely a parallel world of advanced martial arts, and developing one's own combat capabilities will also be the focus of Jiang Ran's future goals.
·
It was noon. Jiang Ran ate the food he had just stolen from the village, and then walked towards the village.
(Benny: What? Are you not full?)
Jiang Ran was too lazy to pay attention to the stupid loli. After arriving at the village, he found a suitable place outside the village, then smeared some dirt on his face and body, then lay down on the ground covered in dust and didn't move.
(Benni: Jiang Yan, what are you doing?)
