Chapter 341: The Love and Hatred Between the Emperor and the Will of the Human Dao
"Quick, quick, smash it again," Gu Shanhai enjoyed the chaos, continuously handing stones to Rein.
Rein was at a loss for words and quite overwhelmed, "Teacher, could you stop handing me these little mountains? It's too troublesome to throw them, I'd rather do it myself."
"Fine then…" Gu Shanhai sulkily put the stone back in its place.
At this moment, the one suspected to be the protagonist of the Abnormal Era had now transformed into an odd composite figure, displaying features like double pupils, a thin waist, long arms that surpassed his shoulders, dragon-shaped curly beards, and an extraordinary bone structure all appearing on his body.
Such imperial characteristics were fine in one or two instances, but numerous of them made it look extremely distorted.
"Come on, attack."
After another kill, Gu Shanhai sensed that the Abnormal Destiny had undergone a qualitative change.
A golden dragon-like semi-illusory gas was seen bursting forth from the body of the opponent.
Rein naturally didn't wait for Gu Shanhai to speak, he simply picked up his treasure seal and smashed it right through.
With a bang, the entire golden gas burst apart.
Gu Shanhai reached out and grabbed it.
"How many times have we killed this fellow?" Gu Shanhai asked.
"Counting the two times you killed him, a total of ninety-nine times," Rein replied calmly.
As for the person who originally carried the Abnormal Destiny, they had already lost their vitality by now.
"Just like crossing a major ordeal," Gu Shanhai shook his head and then sealed the gaseous golden dragon away, which he presumed was probably something like a Qi Fortune Golden Dragon, but its true nature was still that of destiny.
"Here, how do you plan to handle it? Use it or keep it stored?" Gu Shanhai threw it to Rein, uninterested in the item because during the process of Rein's repeated enhancements through killing, Gu Shanhai had already collected a lot of data.
"Teacher, do you have any suggestions? This item seems to be a special anomaly produced by the Human Dao Will, probably specifically designed to replace me," Rein chuckled coldly. If it wasn't produced by Human Dao Will, how could he have felt it connected and still promptly planned a rebellion?
So how could Rein possibly use it on himself, lest it still leaves a trap? These things are all uncertain.
"Suggestion? I have none, if you can't handle it, just give it to me, I don't care," Gu Shanhai wasn't too concerned about it. If it really couldn't be dealt with, then he could just take it with him after the server closure period ended. Once out of this world, no matter how sky-reaching the opponent's means were, they couldn't be executed.
"Then I'll give it to you, Teacher," Rein wasn't concerned either; it was just an anomaly after all, and Gu Shanhai wanted it so he gave it to him.
He then tossed it back to Gu Shanhai.
As Gu Shanhai caught it, he noticed that the golden gas inside no longer resembled a golden dragon but rather appeared akin to a thin layer of mist, clearly a result of Rein's recent sealing; otherwise, it wouldn't have lost its original form like this.
Only anomalies can deal with anomalies.
For the people of the previous era, even adventurers, they couldn't handle it.
'The Abnormal Era, or more precisely the Rule Era, distinct from the centralized control of rules in the Divine Era and the indirect application of rules in the Adventurer Era, is filled with legacies of the rules as products everywhere,' Gu Shanhai thought to himself.
After storing it away, Gu Shanhai figured this item wasn't much use; at most, he could later see if he could create a minor protagonist's halo or a counterfeit protagonist's halo.
He couldn't make a real one, of course.
But it could also be used to improve his own present fortune and happiness, as this item itself represented the Spirit Plant of luck.
"There will be more of these bizarre and powerful anomalies in the future," Rein abruptly said.
"No big deal, as long as you keep becoming stronger, you really don't have to worry about these things," Gu Shanhai agreed with Rein's statement, but the problem was that Rein, being the third highest anomaly in the entire world, really had no right to say this.
The first was the Sea of Information, the second was Human Dao Will, even if Rein could suppress Human Dao Will with Gu Shanhai's help, it didn't mean that Rein could now compete with Human Dao Will. The time required to reach second place was not short.
"I don't have that much confidence, and besides, if anomalies are born in the future specifically targeting me, I won't be able to deal with them," Rein wasn't so carefree.
"So?" Gu Shanhai didn't quite understand what the other wanted to say.
"I want to establish a corresponding institution for support, so that in the future, even if I am not around, humans can still control anomalies by themselves," Rein said calmly.
"I see, that works too," Gu Shanhai had no objection, as long as they didn't involve him.
It was also a fallback method; the clash between Rein and Human Dao Will was inevitable, but while Human Dao Will would target Rein, it would not target the institution created by Rein. Instead, it would support it greatly. Despite their mutual disdain, they wouldn't extend this animosity to human civilization.
It was indeed quite special that two non-human entities placed so much emphasis on human civilization, which sounded a bit absurd.
"I need your help, Teacher," Rein spoke straightforwardly.
"..." Gu Shanhai was speechless upon hearing this, this kid was truly not planning to let him off.
