Chapter 47: Chapter 45: Begin the Adventure

Looking at the icon that lit up in gray again, Lin Qianxuan fell into deep thought.

His thoughts were somewhat complex right now.

Previously, he had considered the possibility of playing the game again, but since it hadn’t lit up for so long, he had grown accustomed to thinking of it as a one-time extraordinary opportunity he had suddenly acquired.

But now that it’s lit up again, it means it’s not just a one-time deal.

And it seems this romance game isn’t limited to just two times, and there will be more chances later on…..

He also has the chance to win over female characters and gain new extraordinary powers from them.

But it’s so strange, he already has a girlfriend!

And she came from this game!

He always thought this game was meant for a single heroine!!

Torn, Lin Qianxuan still clicked on the icon.

Although he’s not interested in playing games to woo girls, he’s very curious about what exactly happens in the future.

With complex emotions, Lin Qianxuan’s String of Destiny intertwined before his eyes, eventually forming a picture.

It was a desolate land covered in ice and snow, filled with countless monsters.

These monsters varied greatly, some with humanoid forms, others like beasts, many with large patches of exposed muscle, and some even had decaying bodies.

The monsters surrounded a group of people, roughly two or three hundred of them, dressed in quite retro attire, wielding various strange weapons, with some having bodies that seemed partly mechanical.

Leading them seemed to be two women.

One wore a red outfit with short hair and a mask, her limbs showing signs of modification, all reflecting metallic sheen.

The other wore white, her long hair styled into a complex bun, with the rest cascading down her waist, but what most caught Lin Qianxuan’s attention were her eyes.

Those eyes were hollow and pitch black, surrounded by countless tendril-like growths, with a few bloodshot veins, looking rather like a sanity-draining sight.

Lin Qianxuan found it quite novel, though…..

At the moment, the group was surrounded by monsters, their faces showing tension and despair.

Lin Qianxuan searched for the game protagonist once again.

Which was himself.

He was standing high in the air, overlooking the scene below.

It was only from this vantage point that he could see so clearly.

Lin Qianxuan keenly noticed that the game character held a walking stick with a dragon’s head, seemingly made of bronze.

Where is this place?

How did he arrive here?

As Lin Qianxuan was puzzled, the narration began to appear.

[While in the warehouse of the Otherworld Bureau in Longjiang City, you accidentally touched a bronze walking stick, and it brought you to this place. You roughly understand that you might have traveled, and hearing the sounds of battle from afar, you quickly rushed over to observe, only to see this scene unfold. Some monsters are attacking a group of humans, and with your ability to glimpse the power of destiny, you realized that two women in the group exude a strong aura of destiny. You know they are the Daughters of Destiny, tasked with the potential to alter the fate of the world, but now, their fates are beginning to dissipate. You understand that only by intervening can you completely change everything…]

“Huh? What does that mean? Alter the world’s fate? Do I woo the girls to save the world? And both of them?”

Lin Qianxuan’s expression was quite nuanced.

The romance game plot is actually quite normal.

But the problem is, he knows this is reality!

This is a future that is destined to happen!

Never mind, reality doesn’t adhere to logic, only stories do.

Lin Qianxuan quipped a couple of lines and then continued to play.

Having had one round of experience, he naturally wouldn’t start controlling the game character’s actions immediately.

The first priority is to gather as much information as possible.

Like how did he travel through dimensions?

Getting the precise date and hour is crucial.

(Recalling, how did I travel, what time was it, try to be as detailed as possible.)

[At this critical moment, you didn’t choose to save anyone, but instead are pondering how you traveled here.]

[Your memory goes back to not long ago, one sunny morning, you saw Wei Zhi’s picture of an anomalous item in the group chat, and asked if the Otherworld Bureau had lots of such things, prompting Wei Zhi to invite you to check it out in the Longjiang City branch’s warehouse.]

[Subsequently, you arrived at the Otherworld Bureau’s storage warehouse for anomalous items, where you saw a dragon-headed bronze walking stick. Wei Zhi told you that aside from being a bit hard, it had no other functions. Out of curiosity, you picked it up to fiddle with it, and suddenly felt the surrounding space collapse. When you regained your senses, you were already in this strange world with the walking stick.]

[You clearly remember, it was the year 2031, October 4th, at 10:31 AM.]

“Brought here by this walking stick? That’s not so bad; if it were an uncontrollable traversal, that would be troublesome.”

Lin Qianxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He’s just afraid the future is without choices.

If traversing is inevitable, that’s the most discomforting.

With things as they are, it means he can choose not to engage in this plot.

If danger arises, he can just opt-out of participating.

Looking at the situation on the screen, Lin Qianxuan began inputting action commands.

(Make a move, help these people.)

Almost the moment Lin Qianxuan entered the command, the scene changed.

The game character transformed into a red-scaled True Dragon, stretching over ten zhang long, and roared. In an instant, the surrounding ice and snow melted, and a great amount of water was manipulated, turning into giant waves, sweeping everything around.

“Aang~!”

“Boom~!”

Under the onslaught of the waves, the surrounding monsters were all shattered, not a single one remained as an opponent.

The game character’s screen-clearing ability was ridiculously strong. With just a few scenes, Lin Qianxuan found that the surrounded group had completely relaxed, with no monsters around for miles.

[Your sudden action startled and shocked everyone. They seized the opportunity and, with your help, broke through the encirclement of the monsters and quickly reached a safe location, where you also followed and reverted to human form.]

Lin Qianxuan was somewhat concerned about the current situation, as he found that in the game, he had mastered the skill of not damaging clothes after transformation and easily wearing them again when reverting back to human form.

Previously, he had to change his clothes before transforming into a dragon, carrying them with water vapor, and after transformation, use the water vapor to cover and put them on again, which was quite a hassle.

He could ask himself about it in the game later.

[Two women approached and communicated with you.]

[They did not use the language of Xuan Country, yet you could understand them. You discovered a new ability of the Dragon Bloodline, which allowed you to precisely understand the meanings of all languages spoken by sentient beings.]

[Gongsun Ying (grateful): I am Gongsun Ying, thank you, sir, for rescuing us.]

This Gongsun Ying was the woman covered in traces of metal modification. At this time, she took up most of the screen. Upon closer inspection, except for her face and body, her limbs seemed to reflect metal, and even her neck had a bit of metallic shine, slightly different from a normal person.

But she looked pretty good, with a bit of a cyberpunk vibe.

[Gongsun Yue (gaze falling on the walking stick in your hand): Sir, may I ask where you got that walking stick…..]

Gongsun Yue, who spoke, was the one Lin Qianxuan had seen earlier with hollow eyes extending tentacles, looking more eerie up close, with a very bizarre artistic style.

“Eh, no language barrier? Does the Dragon Bloodline have this function? I actually didn’t notice, but how do I let them understand my words? Like communicating with the fish school, by conveying thoughts through the spirit?” Lin Qianxuan muttered.

[Lin Qianxuan: I am not from this world.]

After Lin Qianxuan typed this line, the expressions of the two women became a bit confused.

[It seems they didn’t understand your words, you might need to use another language or expression.]

“Indeed!”

This did not surprise Lin Qianxuan.

So he typed another line.

[Lin Qianxuan (using spirit to convey thoughts): My name is Lin Qianxuan, I am not from this realm. This walking stick appeared in my world, and I accidentally got brought here by it.]

This time, the two women finally reacted.

[Gongsun Ying (bewildered, looking at the walking stick in your hand, expression turning complex): Primordial Spirit transmission? But sir, your meaning is a bit unclear to me.]

[Gongsun Yue (seemingly understanding): Sir, do you mean you are from beyond the heavens? And it was just because of this walking stick that you arrived here?]

Compared to Gongsun Ying, Gongsun Yue seemed to understand quicker.

She instantly grasped the situation.

[Lin Qianxuan (nods): Yes, precisely because of this walking stick, I arrived here, then discovered you were surrounded by those monsters and intervened to help.]

[Your answer left Gongsun Ying and Gongsun Yue unsettled inside because this walking stick appears to be a relic of someone they once knew.]

[The String of Destiny has connected you with Gongsun Ying, current connection level 5%.]

[The String of Destiny has connected you with Gongsun Yue, current connection level 6%.]

[Hint: You have shared Gongsun Ying’s talent [Endless Divine Sea].]

[Endless Divine Sea: Your Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness is unsteadily connected to a space within the Alternate Space Universe possessing infinite Divine Energy, opening a connection passage for one breath each morning to absorb a vast amount of pure Divine Energy.]

[Hint: You have shared Gongsun Yue’s talent [Eyes of Death].]

[Eyes of Death: Eyes polluted by muddy energy that can see traces of death. (Death Mark: signs indicating potential ways to kill an enemy.)]

[Hint: You can inquire about some information on the Daughter of Destiny through the Choice of Destiny.]

At this moment, two names lit up in the top right corner of the screen.

One was red, [Gongsun Ying], and the other blue, [Gongsun Yue].

Lin Qianxuan clicked to view, and the information of both was displayed.

[Daughter of Destiny: Gongsun Ying.]

[Connection Level: 5%.]

[Shared Talent: [Endless Divine Sea].]

[Sound Talisman: Not obtained.]
