Chapter 879: Awakening
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Baby, there’s four million in this card. Take it and spend it…”
When Zhao Yu arrived at the school and saw the bank card that Liu Si Yu handed over, he was at a loss.
“How do you have so much money?”
Zhao Yu frowned when he thought of the photo Song Han sent him.” Huang Zi Long gave it to you?”
“Yes…”
“Why did he give you so much money?”
Zhao Yu had an ominous feeling in his heart. He suspected that Liu Si Yu might have sacrificed something for this.
“Because we are friends…”
“Friends?”
Zhao Yu obviously didn’t believe it. What kind of friend would give four million yuan so casually?
Liu Si Yu felt a little wronged. She had done everything for Zhao Yu, but she did not receive any praise. Instead, she was questioned.
“Do you think I sold myself for money?”
“I…”
Zhao Yu hesitated. This was the only thing he could think of to make a man give her four million.
“Let’s go!”
“Where to?”
Liu Si Yu pulled Zhao Yu out of the school.” To check if I have already sold myself!”
“This…”
Zhao Yu hesitated and did not speak for a long time. He just followed behind Liu Si Yu while she pull him out.
The two of them arrived at the hotel in silence.
“Go take a shower first!”
When they really arrived, Liu Si Yu’s anger had mostly subsided. However, she still wanted to prove herself and let Zhao Yu take a shower.
Soon, both of them were done showering. They lay on the bed and kissed each other. When they were about to get to the main topic, Liu Si Yu suddenly asked,” Is there a safety measure?”
“No…”
Zhao Yu was a little embarrassed. He had never thought of such a thing before. He had not taken any safety measures with Li Wen Wen the last two times.
“I’ll get Huang Zi Long to send it over…”
Liu Si Yu took out her phone and sent a message to Huang Zi Long.
When Huang Zi Long saw Liu Si Yu’s message, he jumped up from his bed and off he goes.
Liu Si Yu asked him to go to a hotel and even asked him to bring a box of condoms!
Huang Zi Long ran out of the school excitedly. After buying the necessities, he quickly arrived at the hotel.
“Knock knock ~!”
Huang Zi Long knocked on the door anxiously. However, when he saw Zhao Yu, who was wrapped in a towel, open the door, he was frozen.
” Huang Zi Long, you’re here. Did you bring what I asked for?”
At this moment, Liu Si Yu walked out from behind Zhao Yu.
Huang Zi Long suddenly realized that Liu Si Yu didn’t want to do this to him at all. She wanted to do this to Zhao Yu. She called him just to get some condoms.
He stood there for a long time before he handed over the item, forcing a smile and saying, “Is this enough? If not, I can buy more…”
“It’s enough, it’s enough. You can go now!” Liu Si Yu waved her hand, dismissing him.
Watching Huang Zi Long back away with a forced smile, Zhao Yu felt utterly bewildered. Could someone really behave this way?
Bang!
Liu Si Yu closed the door and turned around, smiling at Zhao Yu, her eyes filled with a hazy allure.
“Darling, shall we begin…?”
Listening to her words, Zhao Yu felt a strong sense of dissonance.
Liu Si Yu having Huang Zi Long deliver condoms was already absurd enough.
Yet she acted as if nothing unusual had happened and wanted to proceed with their plans.
This was just… unbelievable, right?
The strange feeling in Zhao Yu’s heart grew stronger.
But Liu Si Yu seemed oblivious to his unease, wrapping herself around Zhao Yu like an octopus.
“Wait, just a moment!”
Zhao Yu pushed Liu Si Yu away, stepping back a few paces.
“What’s wrong, darling? Don’t you want me?” Liu Si Yu asked, puzzled.
“Impossible. No one acts like this. You’re strange, and Huang Zi Long is even stranger…”
Zhao Yu shook his head, “I can understand if you don’t want to explain, but Huang Zi Long’s behavior goes beyond mere subservience. It’s like he’s your trained dog, not even human…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a thunderbolt seemed to explode in his mind, followed by a flood of memories.
“I am Zhao Yu…”
Zhao Yu quickly realized he was under some sort of illusion, trapped in a fantasy world.
Simultaneously, the world around him froze completely. Liu Si Yu stood there, motionless, like a still image in the room.
Zhao Yu’s eyes sparkled, noticing even the moth flying beside her had stopped mid-air.
“It’s all fake!”
Crash!
The entire world shattered like glass, and Zhao Yu’s vision gradually cleared.
He found himself in a simulated environment resembling a starry sky.
“Where is this…”
“Hahaha, it worked, it worked!!”
Just as Zhao Yu was feeling dazed, a loud laughter echoed.
Turning his head, he saw a shadowy figure, drifting like a ghost, its presence flickering in and out.
“Five thousand years… it wasn’t in vain to survive this long…”
“Who are you?” Zhao Yu asked warily.
The shadow sighed, seeming to understand the cliché of villains talking too much, so he didn’t say much and lunged directly at Zhao Yu.
The shadow moved incredibly fast. Zhao Yu had no time to react before the shadow merged with him.
[Discovered the invasion of a foreign soul, activating the anti-virus program…]
“How is this possible? How is there a system protecting you and how is your soul so much stronger than mine…”
“Impossible…”
“I can’t accept this!”
Following a series of screams, the black shadow’s soul was completely wiped out by the system.
[Foreign soul killing complete]
When Zhao Yu heard the notification, the entire time did not exceed a second.
A moment ago, he was still at a loss, but in the next second, everything was over.
“Ah…What happened?”
Zhao Yu’s eyes became more and more confused. Didn’t they enter this apex tomb?
In this tomb, he was inexplicably hit by an illusion. In the end, his opponent did not attack him when he was hit by the illusion. Instead, he waited for him to come out of the illusion before attacking.
” Wait, since the system can clear the soul possession, why didn’t it warn me when I was hit by the illusion?”
[New pendant found, loading…]
[The loading is complete. The Heavenly Treasure Mirror can be activated at any time.]
Zhao Yu was shocked to find that there was an additional option for the Heavenly Treasure Mirror on the system.
He tried to open it, and in the next second, a starry sky map that enveloped the entire Milky Way appeared in his sight.
The star map was marked in detail, recording the situation of the entire Milky Way.
Among them, there were hundreds of thousands of planets that were shining.
[Beep, beep, a new star system has been discovered, filling up the star map…]
” All these galaxies aren’t on the my precious star map?!”
Zhao Yu was surprised to find that the galaxies where the thousands of planets were located were not in the star map recorded previously.
“So, these galaxies were all hidden by someone?”
“Who did this?”
Zhao Yu was a little shocked. This was not a small project. The technology to hide thousands of galaxies was beyond imagination.
” Still? What’s the point of hiding these galaxies?!”
Zhao Yu soon discovered his location, in a relatively remote part of the Milky Way. What surprised him was that this planet, Earth Origin Star, wasn’t even on the star map.
“Is this a hidden planet too?”
“Could it be related to that genetic experiment?”
Zhao Yu began to speculate, “That soul claiming to be five thousand years old must have known something, but it died too soon…”
Then, Zhao Yu noticed that the thousands of glowing points representing stars were clickable.
He tried clicking on the nearest star.
[Would you like to spend 10,000 technology points to teleport to this star?]
“Teleport?!”
Zhao Yu was stunned. He hadn’t expected the function of the Heavenly Treasure Mirror to able to teleport him to thousands of hidden star systems.
He then tried clicking on the Earth Origin Star he was on.
[Would you like to spend 100,000 technology points to teleport to this star?]
“100,000?”
Zhao Yu paused, then started clicking on the light points experimentally.
Soon, he had clicked on all the thousands of light points. Each one could teleport him, but all required technology points.
The least expensive light point needed 100 technology points, while the most expensive required 10 million.
“What do the different prices mean?”
Zhao Yu was puzzled, but the most important thing now was to figure out his current location and situation.
He temporarily closed the system. As Zhao Yu put away the star map, the environment that had enveloped him, making him feel like he was in the starry sky, suddenly changed, returning to a primitive cave state.
“What is this?!”
Zhao Yu noticed a glowing gourd at his feet. He picked it up and had the super-brain scan it.
“A key to control this small world?!”
The super-brain’s identification result shocked Zhao Yu. This was the very item everyone had been fighting over.
After dripping a drop of blood onto it, Zhao Yu quickly took control of this small world.
However, compared to the absolute control that a apex warrior would have, Zhao Yu’s abilities were limited. He could hardly use the small world to attack enemies.
But using it to store items or even hide himself was a good choice.
Soon, he sensed the outside world through the small world.
Outside the small world, many strong individuals were gathered, attacking its barrier.
These were the people who had previously entered this world. However, compared to the beginning, their numbers had been halved, and most were fourth or third-tier true energy realm experts.
Through the formation, Zhao Yu also saw Xu Chang Qing, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
When he had last seen Xu Chang Qing’s face, he had worried she might be dead. Now it seemed she had escaped.
“Wait, wasn’t the barrier of this small world already broken?!”
Zhao Yu was puzzled, but checking through the system, he found that nearly seventy percent of the small world’s defense formation was still intact.
“Could it be that the previous owner of this small world deliberately let people in?!”
“Impossible, the small world has no autonomous capability…”
Zhao Yu quickly thought of the black soul that had died very quickly before.
“Could that guy have been the true master of this small world?!”
He felt his guess was quite close to the truth, but the most important thing now was how to defend the small world.
After all, he was the new master of the small world, and letting these people continue to attack wasn’t ideal.
Especially since, through his senses, he found that the small world contained an immense number of artifacts and treasures—tens of thousands of artifacts and even more treasures.
“I can’t let them stay here anymore…”
Zhao Yu couldn’t help but marvel at how good the previous owner was at hoarding wealth.
“How can I stop them from attacking the formation?”
Zhao Yu felt a pang of heartache. Every attack from outside knocked away some artifacts and treasures, making him feel the loss deeply, as all these items now belonged to him.
“The small world can’t move either…”
“If only it could…”
Suddenly, he thought of the storage space that came with the system. It couldn’t hold living beings, but could it store this small world?
After all, the small world looked vast, but from the outside, it was just the size of a gourd.
With a trial attitude, Zhao Yu put the gourd into the storage space.
“Shush!”
Quickly, he sensed that the outside attacks had stopped.
Or rather, the entire small world had abruptly vanished from the external world.
“What happened? Did the formation break?!”
“No, why is there no entrance?!”
Outside, the attackers were bewildered. They had been attacking the formation array when it suddenly disappeared.
Several fourth-tier experts went to the spot where the formation had been and found it truly empty.
“How strange, it actually disappeared…”
“Did the small world grow legs and run away?!”
While the others were puzzled about the small world’s situation, Xu Chang Qing was searching through the crowd.
After a while, she sighed.
“Zhao Yu seems to have perished inside…”
“What a pity…”
