Mini World Of Endless Fun Awaits Chapter 112 - Re-Encounter With Kallen

Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Re-Encounter With Kallen

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ren Suo entered “The All-Devouring Soul” and looked at the forbidden boundary under the Elizabeth Tower. He frowned slightly.

Big Ben, also known as the Elizabeth Tower and the Clock Tower of Westminster Palace, was the most famous gothic building in London, England. To the British, the clock tower had much significance and was both the symbol of the building of the British Parliament, as well as the prominent landmark that its citizens ‘hear’ every day.

Ren Suo’s guess was not wrong. The Big Ben was indeed a spiritual possession of the British, and it was only the Big Ben in particular, not the Parliament Building. Ren Suo thought that he could reduce many possible targets if “parliament” and “government” buildings were unable to become Reiki Treasures.

Under the “Reiki Vision”, the entire bell tower of Big Ben was nearly a solid “golden pillar”.

While the inside of Big Ben was not open to foreigners, the red fox did not need to enter either. She could not enter the tower either, due to the enchantment of the Reiki Treasure, which repelled all non-human beings.

Big Ben was located just north of the Parliament Building. The red fox easily came into contact with the golden Reiki pillar by standing at the side of the road. After five minutes of physical contact with the Reiki pillar, the information of the Reiki Treasure was naturally obtained:

[You have discovered the Reiki Treasure of England!]

[Do you wish to activate the Reiki Treasure of England? You may activate the Reiki Treasure of England before the stipulated time. As a reward, you may then receive specialized evolutionary abilities.]

[Caution: After activating the Reiki Treasure of England, there will be a series of unexpected consequences.]

[Caution: After activating the Reiki Treasure of England, you will receive a ‘Legendary Evolution’.]

[Caution: The Reiki Treasure of England will otherwise be automatically activated in 29 days.]

[Elizabeth Tower]

[Reiki content: ???]

[Time required to activate: 3 times of 12 hours each]

[City/Country: ???]

[The Sun Never Sets: ???]

Indeed, it turned out that as long as the All-Devouring Soul activated any one of the world’s Reiki Treasures, the other Reiki Treasures of the world would automatically be activated after one month. There was no way to prevent the automatic activation of other Reiki Treasures, even if Ren Suo cursed the heavens.

That was undoubtedly part of the challenge of the game—if the All-Devouring Soul was unable to activate the rest of the Reiki Treasures within a month, it would have lost a great opportunity.

Furthermore, it would be wise to achieve the target of “overpowering the strongest soul in the world” within that 30 days.

Otherwise, when the other Reiki Treasures were activated, there was no knowing how much stronger the strongest soul in the world would become.

Nonetheless, the Reiki Treasure of England was quite different from that of Xuan Nation, in that the former only required three rounds of activation to complete.

It was definitely less effortful for Ren Suo. But on the third day, just as he thought that he could obtain the Reiki Treasure of England effortlessly and happily, the challenge came.

As with the activation of the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation, when the red fox opened the Reiki Treasure of England, a light curtain that could be seen by mortals and visible to the naked eye would fill the sky. But different from activating the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation, the light curtain in England transitioned between white, red, and blue, and it looked like a huge Razer keyboard “polluting” the sky with its light.

There was no doubt that the light curtain with transitioning colors also attracted the attention of the authorities of England. But unlike the Fire of Legacies in Xuan Nation, there were too many prominent landmarks in London which overwhelmed the authorities: the Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, the London Bridge, Westminster … They found nothing on the first day.

However, when the red fox opened the Reiki source for the second time, the authorities managed to deduce that the source of the light curtain was from the Big Ben, perhaps from observing the location where the light curtain first appeared. As such, they immediately cordoned off the Big Ben!

At that point, Ren Suo’s progress in the game was hindered.

Ren Suo tried to let the red fox approach directly with “Seductive Charm”. Beyond the cordon line, there were army personnel as well as other young people wearing the “Homeland Security and Investigations Agent” tag. The latter group possessed Reiki beams akin to Pract.i.tioners.

Ren Suo had long observed that Pract.i.tioners and mortals appeared slightly different under “Reiki Vision”.

Both Pract.i.tioners and mortals had a glow of blood. The glow of ordinary people was red with a tad of black, while that of those clad in the black vests who were definitely Pract.i.tioners, was red with speckles of gold as if containing a ‘high-cla.s.s aura”.

Similarly, the Homeland Security and Investigations agents had a glow that was red with a bit of gold, which definitely meant that they were also Pract.i.tioners.

However, Pract.i.tioners were no different from mortals when it came to being mesmerized by the Seductive Odor of the red fox, but—

They were also equipped with military drones.

Those military drones were circling over the cordon line and were replaced by fully-charged ones every 15 minutes. The drones even had gun openings beneath them—although the firepower would definitely not be strong considering that they were drones flying less than 1 meter away from people.

However, the problem was that with such a method of relying on cameras for surveillance, the red fox was unable to infiltrate into the area.

Ren Suo hence decided to let the red fox roam around London to pa.s.s time, and found a few museums to absorb Reiki energy.

Even if the surveillance cameras of those museums captured the red fox, it was safe as long as the security personnel did not react adversely—after all, it was tiring for the personnel in the surveillance room to monitor a few to tens of cameras at the same time.

Nonetheless, even after spending one day absorbing Reiki energy and evolving twice, the red fox still did not manage to acquire stealth abilities like “Invisibility” and “Temperature Adaptation”.

Perhaps it was not possible for the red fox to possess such abilities, to begin with, or perhaps it was that Ren Suo was unlucky, but regardless, Ren Suo was not willing to waste any more time.

After all, the world was huge, and there were many other places to scout around.

So Ren Suo controlled the red fox to hit the ground three times.

Then, an old gentlemanly elf wearing a robe and holding a walking stick appeared in front of the red fox.

He said, “h.e.l.lo, young fox. I am willing to provide you with some tiny help.”

The red fox asked, “Don’t elves never get old?”

The London Earth Elf replied, “Young fox, growing old is a British romance.”

The list of available purchases was slightly longer than that of the Northern Mang Earth Elf, and there were also some skills that seemed very powerful. For example, there was the “Crystal of the Dragon King’s Roar” ability which enabled the character to learn the Roar of the Dragon King that would cause the eruption of a powerful and destructive force that is 10x to 100x the power of the user’s Damage. That ability would definitely increase the combat power of the red fox.

But of course, the cost of that ability was extremely high. Without feeling certain that he could complete the game in that attempt and rely on that ability to surpa.s.s the strongest creature in the world, Ren Suo definitely did not purchase that ability, at least for the moment. He noted down the ability in his head.

He only had one purpose in mind when he summoned the Earth Elf.

The red fox asked, “Do you provide services to send me to the Elizabeth Tower?”

The London Earth Elf looked at the Elizabeth Tower in the distance and came to a sudden realization. He said, “So it was you who activated the Reiki Treasure… It is no wonder you have such great Reiki energy on you, so I see.”

The red fox said, “I hope you can dig a hole underground just at the edge of the Elizabeth Tower and teleport me there. I only need to just be able to touch the foundation of the Elizabeth Tower.”

The London Earth Elf replied, “It is not impossible, but… it would cost this amount.”

25 merit points!

Ren Suo was shocked. The Earth Elf looked like a gentleman but was, in fact, a greedy man, truly living up to the traits of a native British man—his ruthless tactics were no different from that of British people of the 19th century.

Although Ren Suo knew that using such a service was akin to cheating in the game to bypa.s.s the human surveillance on the ground, and would allow him to open the Reiki Treasure almost certainly, the price would naturally not be cheap.

But 25 merit points was simply too outrageous!

The red fox remarked, “That’s too expensive!”

The London gentleman said, “I won’t force you to use my service. However, if you do purchase my service, I would teleport you out in times of need.”

Behind the screen, Ren Suo pulled the corners of his mouth. He activated the “Seductive Charm” ability and said, “Can it be slightly cheaper?”

Ren Suo had not expected his tactic to work, but it appeared that the London gentleman blushed and said, “Alright… this is my best price.”

The cost dropped from 25 to 24 merit points, but Ren Suo would not give up so easily. He attempted to do the same several times, but the London Earth Elf would not reduce the price further than 20 merit points. He was also becoming slightly angry.

Ren Suo was already extremely satisfied that his in-game character’s ability could make such an impact on the price of in-game products. The red fox probed, “Can I pay in separate payments? Like in ten portions?”

The London Earth Elf was slightly intrigued. He said, “That is not impossible…”

Ren Suo’s eyes lit up, and he asked again, “In that case, can I split the purchase of items into multiple payments as well?”

The London Earth Elf replied, “That is possible too, but only if you buy high-quality products.”

Ren Suo was elated and paid for the teleportation service in 10 separate payments.

The player privilege “Meticulous Player” was indeed in play even in such purchases, and it was activated in seven of the 10 payments. Ren Suo was considered more lucky than average, and only spent a total of 13 merit points.

Nonetheless, Ren Suo still felt bitter, for he would soon be broke, even if he used such a cheat method in the in-game purchases twice more.

After obtaining the Reiki Treasure of England, he had to obtain a revolutionary ability set for perfect stealth and concealment.

Nonetheless, it felt great to be able to cheat the in-game purchase system. The red fox was taken directly to the ground right underneath the Big Ben, where she could just maintain physical contact with the Reiki energy while not alarming any of the people above the ground.

Even the pangolin might not have been able to accomplish that—there were many water pipes and electrical cables running beneath the Big Ben, and any misjudgment in digging beneath the ground could result in the collapse of the entire structure, resulting in complete exposure of the pangolin’s ident.i.ty.

The red fox maintained physical contact with the Reiki beam in satisfaction, to activate the Reiki Treasure for the last time. Ren Suo fast-forwarded the game by 12 hours.

But after just 1 hour and 13 minutes, the fast-forwarding was interrupted.

An apparition of a blue human-like figure appeared in the hole that the London Earth Elf created. The figure looked curiously at the red fox.

The figure asked, “Sister, what are you doing here?”

Her mouth did not move, but the voice of a young girl speaking in Mandarin could be heard in the scene.

At the same time, Ren Suo, who was lying down on the couch, was so astonished that he almost rolled over.

He had not imagined that he would actually reencounter her in another game—

She was Kallen Lamperouge.

Indeed, she was the main target to be protected in “The Hitman: The b.l.o.o.d.y Banquet”!
