Chapter 166: Chapter 148 Just Missing a Heaven’s Mandate Protagonist_2

"You’re only thirteen, why so complicated? Just leave it to the adults, children should act like children. Go to sleep!" Zheng Yichen ruffled Liu Hongzhao’s hair, the girls had had no time to tend to their looks along the way, even Qi Xiangyun, who had previously tied up her hair, now had it loose, secured with a rubber band like the others.

Next, he turned to Qi Xiangyun, who was looking at Zheng Yichen earnestly: "I want to finish watching the Blood Asura."

"...We’ll talk after you’ve slept!" The girl harboring a grudge was also sent to sleep by Zheng Yichen. He looked at Qi Xiangyun and Liu Hongzhao, who lay in their sleeping bags still gazing at him, obviously not the type to fall asleep easily.

He thought for a moment, then took out two new amulets from the motorcycle.

The kind endowed with Katrina’s refuge magic, the girl had given him a bunch of these things. Having too many wouldn’t increase their effect, but there were advantages to quantity.

Piles of paper can stop bullets... it all depends on how thick. Amulets are somewhat similar, he hadn’t used these, and giving them away as presents felt... a bit off.

After all, they were from the girl who slept next to him every night, given with the intention of protecting him, and now he was handing them to other girls.

"Take these, and if you have strange dreams again, let me know, I’ll give you new ones."

He couldn’t cast spells. It wasn’t that he couldn’t do magic, it was just that it was practically worthless; it was good for lighting fires or cigarettes but not much else. It was always about time – if he had specialized in magic from a young age, he would have been soaring by now. But that wasn’t the kind of person he was.

Unable to use spells, faced with the power of Supreme Demons that could enter others’ dreams, he had no way to counteract, even though he could fight Supreme Demons head-on.

But thinking of the werewolf muscleman in his own dreams, he mused that perhaps the Supreme Demons of this world weren’t so outrageous?

Some girls didn’t want to sleep, but they couldn’t resist the power of sleepiness. The longer they stared at Zheng Yichen, the sleepier they got. Zheng Yichen pulled out the great sword stuck in the ground, examining the martial arts inscribed on it.

He recognized every character, but the practice method was entirely new to him, so it seemed hazy. It wasn’t total confusion since he learned a bit along the way, thanks to studying evil skills like Destroy Vitality Crush Life.

However, he noticed some familiar elements, similar to the core essence of martial arts like the Evil Sword, but looking much more powerful.

If this thing could make him soar like a fledgling eagle, he’d guarantee to learn it thoroughly.

"Being a Proxy Agent is tough, wanting to learn everything but never getting the chance." Zheng Yichen placed the sword aside, showing the importance of a system or an entity like the Main God, which allowed learning rare manuals with a slap on the hand.

Even if they couldn’t be learned with a slap, they could be learned by spending reward points.

Honestly, if the Dusk Cathedral could be a bit more ambitious and come up with such a mechanism, he couldn’t believe that the Boundary Breaking Faction and Equilibrium Faction could get by so easily.

The sky was still gloomy after daybreak, the red wisps seemingly eternal. Overnight, a new layer of red wisps had settled on the ground around them, thin enough to make one want to grab them, only for the wisps to be burned away by a flame.

The girls woke up one after another, Lin Yaoyao yawned, sat cross-legged on the ground, and started practicing her Inner Strength – the basic martial arts she learned from Qi Xiangyun, the kind everyone in Qi Family Town could do for health preservation.

Zheng Yichen, on the other hand, took out some dry food, rubbed his fingers together, and reignited the portable stove with a small flame, then started cooking skillfully. The supplies he carried on his motorcycle could sustain him for around twenty days if he was careful.

There was no shortage of compressed food.

"Brother Chang Qing, aren’t you eating?" Lin Yaoyao asked, looking at Zheng Yichen as she set down her plastic bowl.

It was hard to imagine being able to eat eggs in such an environment; it used to be humans who ate chickens, but now it’s chickens eating humans, although there might not be many normal people left in this world.

"Ah, I’m going to eat meat later, you guys just eat these," Zheng Yichen waved his hand, taking out a small bag from his pocket containing bait made from his blood. He had thought he wouldn’t use it anymore, but now... he decided to use a bit of it.

He scraped some fine powder from the bait and ventured outside the whirlwind circle toward another area. His previous use of the bait was a huge mistake; it could be seen as a concentrated lure.

Normally, you’d scrape off a bit and use it gradually. He had taken the whole thing out at once, which was asking for trouble.

Just a little powder attracted many aberrant creatures – a mixture of human and wild beast. Even though these beings had taken on many other characteristics.

Zheng Yichen felt a particular aura in those freshly transformed aberrant creatures, similar to the kindred essence of the Battle Maniac Asura. It must be the influence of other Supreme Demons.

The force of the Supreme Demons had already begun to affect the Mortal Realm, swallowing this world into another. The Supreme Demons were beneficiaries too, so it was normal for them to stir up such affairs.
