Chapter 356 The Heavenly Demon Rat! The Calamity of the Fiend! Lu Yu's Great Harvest
The mouse is very sad...
It has always considered itself the core of the team, the trusted strategist of Xiu Ren and everyone else, the pillar of the family, the beloved entrepreneur of the rats, and the number one coward. (Scratch that last one.)
But now, it's at the bottom again.
Once or twice is fine, but how many times has this happened?
Don't I have any dignity?
Or is everything now just the fantasy of that hamster in the sewer before it dies?
"Ouch, ouch, ouch... Don't touch me!"
The mouse stretched out its paw and pinched the arm of its clone, then was swatted away by a broom, tumbling several times before confirming that it wasn't a hallucination.
But why...
He was clearly the Thousand-Faced Soul Rat who deceived everything, but now he couldn't distinguish between what was real and what was fake.
"Is this rat finally coming to its senses?" Lu Yu found the rat's appearance both amusing and helpless. Although he usually tormented the rat, he cared for it no less.
However, it's not necessarily a bad thing for mice to become smart.
"Now, let's see how Egg will handle this?"
Lu Yu was also very curious: was the cunning dragon born from Egg's life-red essence finally going to reveal its true colors?
"I have to find out!" Mouse stood up, looking at Egg with resentment, only to find that the latter had disappeared.
My first reaction was...
This guy fled to avoid punishment!
However, after searching carefully, the mouse found it lying on the edge of the deck, mouth agape, staring at the chaotic, dark sea. Its hundred eyes were wide open, revealing the clear, foolish, and hungry look of a college student, with the words "I can't believe it" written all over its forehead...
Dull, silly, hungry, and cute!
When the mouse saw this, it was stunned for a moment and began to wonder if it was being too sensitive.
Egg was raised by it with its own poop and pee. Although it's full of tricks, it's not bad by nature. It just knows how to eat and is a bit silly.
I can be considered its second sister.
My eldest sister is like a mother to me, and I am half a mother to her.
Egg will definitely be grateful, how could it possibly deliberately persecute itself?
It can't be for the sake of pleasure, can it?
This is the act of the Faceless Brotherhood!
"I see!"
The more the mouse thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, especially when it remembered that Egg used to love gnawing on it because of the aura of the Ghostly King Tree. Maybe it was because the mouse was about to advance that it was stimulated to level up.
But... what's going on with Red Hare and Paper Knight?
Although the Mother River contains only cognitive fog and lacks the concepts of sun and moon, the Paper Knight still maintains the virtues of the sun, whether because the main world is still in daylight or because the spirit lamp shines like the sun.
Faced with the mouse's suspicious expression, it stared intently, showing no intention of denying anything. The reason it waited until it broke through with Egg was to uphold the chivalrous virtue of honesty, and it did not want to deceive the mouse.
Although I persecuted you and gained pleasure from it, was I being honest?
Just as the Paper Knight was about to reveal his hand, he saw the Mouse standing with his hands behind his back, sighing, "So, even in your Sun Mode, you still see me as a target to catch up with? But next time, it won't be that simple."
"???" The head under the Paper Knight's helmet looked completely bewildered. What was this hamster talking about?
"Just as I expected!"
Seeing its silence, the mouse's smile widened. The arrogant paper knight, striving to catch up with its superior self, desperately sought advancement...
That makes perfect sense!
As for Red Hare, it's even simpler. The Mechanical King Domain has consumed so many mechanical cores and resources; it would be useless if it didn't break through.
Coupled with its own sense of pressure, the lazy cat also began to work hard.
Essentially, it's because the mouse is so outstanding that it puts pressure on the whole team and plays a core role.
Without the hamster, this family would fall apart!
"It's alright now!"
After realizing its significant role in the team, Mouse felt much better, whistling as it turned and left.
But it didn't notice that the moment Egg looked away, its clear eyes turned joyful.
The mouse is as gullible as ever.
Next, we can try to increase the intensity of the persecution and bring the Rat Bank into its first economic crisis!
"Hmph!" The paper knight snorted coldly upon seeing this, too lazy to bother with the silly rat anymore.
The virtue of chivalry is honesty, but that doesn't mean telling the mouse the truth!
The inequality is solved instantly.
"Roar~"
Red Hare lay lazily on the ground, constantly wagging its trident tail, its furious laughter almost dissipating, nearly entering a low-power state.
This is so much fun!
"Sure enough, the only thing that can defeat the mouse is itself!" Lu Yu was speechless; this mental victory method was simply unsolvable.
It feels like even a mouse could try to achieve invincible Dao Heart, because it would never feel like it has lost.
That should be... a plus, right?
A little spider beside her handed her a cup of hot tea, and looking at its pensive owner, gently said, "Aww!"
The mouse is never stupid; it just trusts its family.
They may seem careless most of the time, but they are always reliable when it matters.
The little spider remembered all of this, and even gave the mouse a gift before the mouse was promoted.
Heavenly Demon Lu Shu Spider Silk Armor!
Its appearance is based on the story of Lu Bu, the Heavenly Demon, told by Lu Yu. It is reddish-purple all over, with a three-pronged purple-gold crown and a beast-faced chainmail armor. It also has a delicate lion belt around its waist. All of these are products of spider silk.
In order to create a metallic texture, Spider-Man secretly asked Lu Yu for the [Silk Metallization] skill.
The Golden Crystal Spider, a special pet from the Metal Realm, can transform its silk threads into sharp metal threads, thus gaining powerful cutting ability.
However, after the emergence of the Void Weaving Heavenly Law, it became unnecessary, and they directly began to apply color.
Each thread was incorporating a unique defensive ritual and a powerful illusion was embedded within it.
Once the armor is destroyed, it will automatically attack the opponent to protect the mouse's safety.
"Sister Spider, you're so good to me!!!"
When the hamster received the gift, it was so moved that it almost cried. Then it swelled up to a two-meter-tall hamster and quickly put on the Heavenly Demon Hamster Armor.
Rather than being imposing... he's more like a bit goofy.
Completely unaware, the mouse began to challenge its own projection.
The same hamster, the same thousand-faced soul tree.
"See? Spider Sister made this for me herself!" Mouse proudly boasted, and then the next second...
The cloned mouse also had the same armor, leaving the original mouse dumbfounded.
"You can even sculpt this on the spot!"
"That idiot."
Lu Yu covered his face, thinking it was going to be a fierce battle, but he didn't expect...
"Soul Tree Cannon!"
In a fit of rage, the mouse unleashed a barrage of thoughts, launching a direct barrage of attacks.
Boom boom boom!
The clone on the other side attacked with the same moves, which was easily blocked, but it soon realized the problem and felt the pressure.
Because its ability to gather thoughts is not even half as fast as that of a mouse, the ammunition depot quickly becomes insufficient.
The only option is to passively defend by condensing the Thousand Faces Shield!
"My thoughts are the realm of desire, what do you have to compare with me?" The rat grinned maliciously, its thoughts flashing through its mind, each instant condensing into thousands of ideas, which began to attack frantically.
This made Lu Yu realize that, although they were both serpentine, the rat was different from everyone else...
It's incredibly astringent!
However, the next second, the Three Calamities Divine Light swept over. Although the rat dodged in time and its spider silk helmet had amazing defensive power, it was only partially worn and burned by the drought, but it did not break.
"Gagaga!"
As a clone of the same Thousand-Faced Soul Tree, it can naturally transform into the Three Calamities Peacock and launch a powerful attack.
"I want you dead!"
The rat touched the precious gift that had been burned to a crisp, and then flew into a rage. Its power of transformation shone, and it transformed into a blazing black dragon ant. In an instant, it adjusted its body shape and perfectly donned the Heavenly Demon Rat Armor. With its blood-red ribbons fluttering, it reflected the phantom of the Primordial Starfield.
Boom boom boom!
Like an ant king that crushes ancient times, he shakes the stars with his fists and shatters everything, directly fighting against the cloned Peacock of the Three Calamities, every punch landing with a visceral impact!
"Ghostly Star-Shattering Arm!"
"The Three Calamities Divine Light!"
"Ant King's Heaven-Opening Fist!"
"Entwined by the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree!"
The two Thousand-Faced Soul Rats constantly changed forms, switching avatars to fight, dazzling the onlookers. They fought from the deck to the shadows, and from the bow to the stern.
In the end... even a bunch of rat clones picked up weapons and attacked, so the rats might not be the strongest.
But as a versatile member of the team, he has almost no weaknesses!
As a result, the battle was intense. After a half-hour tug-of-war, the mouse finally emerged victorious and condensed its own mantra – [Existence].
As the name suggests, it refers to the foundation and traces of a person's existence.
However, the mouse's truth cannot steal from others, but rather diminishes its own presence, similar to the "ignore existence" series.
In theory, if a mouse can fully develop this ability, it can reduce its presence to a minimum, almost "none".
All traces of its existence will be hidden, even enemies will ignore it, and eventually even the world will forget its existence, thus it can avoid all calamities and enemies.
Become a "forgotten rat of the world"!
It's a pity it can only be used on itself, otherwise it would be a top-tier concept-based skill. With the mouse's current strength, it would at most reduce its presence.
"During the battle, we can launch surprise attacks and ignore certain key skills, which will make the Rat Clone Special Forces' infiltration operations easier in the future, and we can even set up the Faceless Rat Kingdom in a bustling city..."
As Lu Yu was devising a development path for the mice, he suddenly heard the mice beside him shout with delight:
"Then my browsing history will be automatically untraceable, and even a mechanical mother won't be able to find it!" I want to leave my innocence in the world!
"..."
Lu Yu was speechless. "You're something else."
However, the two avatars of the rat, by participating in the battle, defeated their "self" and successfully entered the Radiant Moon Rank, condensing their own mantra.
The mantra of the Crimson Dragon Ant is "Giant Spirit," which can cause its size to increase dramatically and its power to double on top of the increased power from the Power Ring.
The higher the level of mastery of the mantra, the greater the multiplier.
For the Primordial Black Crimson Dragon Ant, a pure power-based ancient species, this is an epic upgrade.
As for the true words condensed by the Three Calamities Peacock, they are called [Calamity Spirit]. After using the Three Calamities Divine Light, the creatures killed in the areas ravaged by natural disasters have a chance to be transformed into evil spirits of the corresponding attributes, which can be used to strengthen the feathers. They can also share the calamities on the Three Calamities Peacock.
As the power of natural disasters continues to increase, the Mother River will also intensify its calamities in order to maintain balance. For example, certain chosen ones, heroes, and so on, will have their safety greatly improved if they have enough calamity spirits to share the burden.
In short, when natural disasters rage, there's a chance to get experience packs. A single natural disaster can cause millions of deaths, making leveling up much faster.
If there are enough evil spirits, the Three Calamities Peacock can avoid calamities, making it comparable to the divine beast Phoenix that is blessed by heaven.
"The power of mantras is truly extraordinary. It's hard to imagine what it would be like if it contained legendary qualities..."
Lu Yu sighed inwardly. He had originally wanted to give Egg and the others some advice on the true words, but at this moment, the spirit lamp on the ship had burned to its limit and suddenly went out with a "pop," kicking him out of the Chaotic Nether Sea and back into the void.
"quick!"
Lu Yu had the little spider open a void rift, took out his phone and quickly checked the time, finding that thirty-six hours had passed.
He had only spent twelve hours in the chaotic sea of darkness.
Compared to the first tributary—the primordial spiritual sea—one hour in the primordial spiritual sea is equal to four hours in the outside world, which is 4:1.
The chaotic dark sea of the second tributary of the mother river has shrunk to a ratio of nearly 3:1 with the outside world.
"Fortunately, just as Lilith said, the deeper we go into the Mother River, the closer time will be to the main world, so that a day inside will be equivalent to a year outside."
Lu Yu felt fortunate. If that situation had really occurred, it would have been troublesome. He would have explored the Mother River even slightly, and the outside world would have been turned upside down without him even knowing.
It's easy to lose control of the situation, or even be ambushed in the fountain.
Even if the time deviation gradually equalizes, there will still be ancient giants who go into seclusion for long periods of time to explore the Mother River, hoping to find a breakthrough miracle.
But most of the time, they gained nothing. By the time they emerged, several years or even decades had passed, and the influence they had cultivated had long since weakened or been destroyed.
Everything has to start all over again!
Although he didn't get to fully explore the Chaotic Nether Sea, Lu Yu wasn't disappointed; the gains this time were already substantial.
With everyone advancing to the Radiant Moon realm, their overall combat strength has undergone a qualitative change, giving many who were preparing to ambush him in the Myriad Races Arena a huge surprise!
With that thought in mind, Lu Yu left the void and returned to his room.
However, upon entering, what I saw was...
Staring straight into the abyss.
Yuan Ji, dressed in a maid outfit, was cleaning the house. The outfit was very proper, a simple black and white classic maid outfit. Because it wasn't a sexy style, the skirt was very long, covering her calves.
However, her long-term pampered life left her with little cleaning experience. To clean the stains under the table, she knelt on the floor, her fair legs in slippers pressed against the ground, her upper body leaning forward. Even though there was a distance between her and the ground, her clothes dragged on the floor as she cleaned the floor.
She then used a rag to carefully wipe the hard-to-reach corners of the table legs.
This meant she had to stick her buttocks out, and her skirt, pulled down by gravity, revealed a large and rounded curve. The repeated wiping and large movements caused it to be stretched taut, like a bright moon, while her slender waist was so delicate that it could be encircled by a single hand. She was describing a landscape painting in the air in front of Lu Yu.
There are mountains and water, and... pocket ninjas.
"Those who work are indeed the most beautiful!"
Lu Yu chuckled and looked away, not continuing to stare. At first glance, it could be explained as surprise, but it would be impolite to keep looking.
It wasn't that she was shy or embarrassed about riding her maid.
But...
No need!
The relationship between Yuan Ji and him was less like master and servant and more like that of employees working together, the kind where they were paid to work.
It's okay if you can't control yourself. Given this woman's personality, she most likely won't resist, and might even actively cooperate. But then...
The money is gone!
A moment of impulsiveness resulted in losses of tens of millions every year, the price of which was enough to make Lu Yu indifferent.
On the other side, Yuan Ji, upon hearing the sound, paused slightly, waited a few seconds, but did not reach up to her buttocks, her gaze complex.
In fact, she already knew Lu Yu was back the moment the void rift opened, and some of her actions were intentional.
Yuan Ji is a very realistic woman. Since she has chosen to become a maid, she will do her best, even though she is still a virgin. She endures the intense shame and lures Lu Yu into her trap.
But to my surprise, this man's willpower was far stronger than I had imagined.
He's actually a gentleman?
Moreover, Lu Yu did not conceal his aura. Yuan Ji could feel the vast and boundless Radiant Moon Rank spiritual energy, as if it could turn her into ashes with just a breath.
You've already reached the Radiant Moon realm so quickly!
Moreover, judging from the looks of it, he seems to be not far from the mid-stage of the Radiant Moon Realm!
What kind of monster is this thing?!
Yuan Ji suppressed her shock, wiped the dirt off the corner of the table, then stood up, her skirt drooping, and bowed to Lu Yu: "Master, I'm done cleaning. Would you like me to cook?"
"Need not."
Lu Yu refused, and looking at the foreign princess who seemed to have come to terms with reality, he said meaningfully, "It seems that you have already obtained the legitimate status of the alliance."
"After I declared that my clan had used fake Holy Moon Crystals as ransom and needed to work to compensate for it, the Alliance quickly sent me my ID card and the key to the next room," Yuan Ji said calmly, not surprised at all.
The father wanted to hedge his bets, and the alliance also needed more outsiders to guide them.
It's simply a matter of each person getting what they need.
Lu Yu nodded, went into the kitchen, took out the bronze millet, used his Celestial Breathing to control the airflow and remove the outer shell, then started adding water to boil it. He then asked, "How is your ex-husband?"
"..."
Yuan Ji's indifferent expression crumbled instantly at these words. She hesitated several times before finally forcing herself to speak, "At first, Your Highness... the Calamity Heart Demon Seed resisted too fiercely. Although there was a rank suppression, it was still very difficult to breed it, but..."
"But what?" Lu Yu asked curiously.
"The Demon Seed of Calamity was furious and directly threatened the Great Peach Pig King that he was the true son of the king and that if he dared to touch him, he would tear him to pieces. As a result, after the Great Peach Pig King learned that he claimed to be a male soul, his interest soared and he succeeded, causing the Peach Pig Breeding Base to be in an uproar all night."
As Yuan Ji finished speaking, she lowered her head in shame.
Although the Calamity Heart Demon Seed was merely an incarnation of the true king's son, it was implanted with identical memories in order to achieve perfect assimilation.
In some ways, it's not much different from the real thing.
The princess, who was once high above all races, was now being humiliated by a pig, which disgusted her. She couldn't help but feel fortunate... Fortunately, the other party was arrogant and had hardly ever seen her, let alone touched her.
Otherwise it would be truly disgusting!
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu became interested and prepared to go and take a look.
So he lightly stomped his foot and used the [True Word - Door], directly opening a special portal on the ground.
With a creak, the door opened.
On the opposite side appeared a peach blossom grove, its blossoms resembling pink flowers.
This is the peach pig breeding base!
"What!?"
Yuan Ji was shocked. Even though the power was used in front of her, she could not feel the slightest fluctuation in the void. A stable spatial channel was opened in an instant.
This guy... is getting more and more terrifying!
"The consumption isn't high either."
Lu Yu seemed to be deep in thought. He used the ground beneath his feet to connect to the school several kilometers away, opening a special portal. This method was much less resource-intensive than the small spider's long-distance void jump.
However, part of the reason is that the white fox did not interfere; otherwise, the spiritual energy required would have been at least several dozen times greater.
As Lu Yu stepped inside, feeling the fragrance of peach blossoms and earth wafting in, he couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic. Before he had taken more than a few steps, he was warmly welcomed by a large number of female peach pigs and the Great Peach Pig King.
"Huffing and puffing!"
The Peach Pig King excitedly said that Lu Yu was really good; even after becoming rich, he hadn't forgotten his old friend.
The female sow that was delivered yesterday was amazing. Although she looked similar to other pigs, she had an indescribable noble air about her, giving her the thrill of a wild boar rooting up a cabbage.
In particular, the constant insults and threats during the process, along with the trash-like look in her eyes, perfectly triggered all her urges, causing her to be in a state of high excitement all night.
"I'm glad you like it!" Lu Yu nodded with a smile, looking at the Calamity Heart Demon Seed that had been trampled to the ground and was in utter despair, its eyes filled with resentment as it stared at him.
Lu Yu ignored his impotent rage and directly ordered the little spider to put it inside the male boar as a breeding boar, stimulating its reproductive desire.
He would never attempt to propagate the bloodline of a true king through a clone; that was unrealistic. Even a trace of a true king's will could kill him.
It was simply because Lu Yu discovered that the Calamity Heart Demon Seed possessed a powerful adaptability, capable of modifying any parasitic host, enhancing its bloodline, spiritual energy, and other indicators, greatly strengthening its foundation, essentially resulting in a super evolution.
Therefore, Lu Yu thought of using the power of breeding moon-footed creatures to create a new generation of super peach pigs.
At that time, the quality of the meat, its reproductive ability, and the concentration of psionic energy will all be greatly improved. Then, by labeling it as a descendant of royalty, the price will be inflated.
There's no need to wait for the long slaughtering period; you can directly sell a wave of concepts, also known as pre-orders.
For just two million, you can reserve a royal pig!
You can definitely make a fortune and accumulate funds to alleviate your financial pressure.
Just do it.
Lu Yu spent an entire day getting the Calamity Heart Demon Seed to successfully conceive with 373 sows and accelerated the breeding process.
It is estimated that a batch of offspring can be produced in a few days, but the cost is that the Calamity Heart Demon Seed will be almost destroyed. These mothers will also need to replenish a lot of nutrients and will be weak for a period of time.
However, through the school's channels, Lu Yu extended invitations to many high-society figures, offering two million to reserve a pig that hadn't even been born yet.
This left many people dumbfounded, as they never expected Lu Yu to be serious and actually use the power of reproduction to create a special batch of "royal descendants".
Although everyone knew there was a lot of hype involved, they couldn't resist their curiosity, and since the price wasn't too outrageous, they all placed orders.
Success before the Myriad Races Arena
This allowed Lu Yu to amass over 70 million!
