Chapter 88: Chapter 89 Single Solo Five in a Row, Lie Down to Gain Points

Having recovered the Derived Entries, Jiang Shu now had more thoughts in his mind.

Since he could give the Tablet Spirits the use of Derived Entries, he no longer had to think about arming them with firearms. To arm them with these Superpowers...

How perfect would that be?

Just right, he also couldn’t bear to give up any Derived Entry due to the upper limit problem. Now he didn’t have to worry about that, with twelve more slots available for free, he could brazenly configure his card combinations, using the appropriate lineup.

Moreover, if only he himself used the Derived Entries, he would run out of the blue bar. Letting the Tablet Spirits use them didn’t present that problem.

"What did you use for energy when you used your ability just now? Battery power?" Jiang Shu looked at Ding.

Ding: Battery! It went down fast, using up two percent in just one minute.

Battery power, huh?

Jiang Shu stroked his chin, the battery capacity of the Tablet Spirits was quite large, one charge was enough for two days.

Although using Derived Entries consumed a lot of battery power, in reality, this was the energy source easiest to resolve. By contrast, he had to slowly replenish his spiritual power over time.

For the battery issue, increasing the battery capacity, preparing enough full batteries, quick charge, flash charge, wireless charging, these standard methods were enough to solve it.

He thought of the nineteen effects of Magic, and from them, selecting abilities was an easy way to encompass damage, cutting C, protection, support, healing, etc., and then equip the four Tablet Spirits...

A one-man army, playing the solo queue was no longer a dream!

Merely using Paper Card Technique and Shadow Cutting, he could take on a base of over twenty people alone. Once the Tablet Spirits were fully trained, he would be unstoppable in Lonely City.

To achieve such a goal, he still needed to continuously improve his class, perform magic in front of more audiences, improve the quality and fidelity of the Derived Entries. If it continued like Derivative Entry·Spirit Perception, it’d still be a loss.

After simply making a plan for getting stronger, Jiang Shu pushed these thoughts aside. The journey must be taken one step at a time; he still had to scope out the location this afternoon, as tomorrow night’s Magic Performance was critical.

Not long after, Kirie turned off all the machines inside the Awakening Hall, came out, locked the door, and reminded Jiang Shu, "Let’s go, Wolf mentioned he’s waiting for us in the underground parking lot."

"Okay." Jiang Shu stood up and glanced at his wristwatch; Wolf had indeed mentioned it to him, but he hadn’t noticed just now.

The two of them went downstairs and got into Wolf’s car.

"I got the report form from the Security Department; today’s Monday, the staff is at work." As soon as he got in the car, Wolf pointed to the box in front of Jiang Shu’s seat, "I filled it out as a fire drill, so there will be a fire crew nearby on standby, you can play with fire freely, it won’t be a problem."

"Uh..." Only then did Jiang Shu understand, Wolf really did have a lot of influence, "Actually, it’s not necessary to waste so many resources..."

"No worries, they’re idle anyway." Wolf said nonchalantly, "If you didn’t report, you’d end up in prison if something happened."

"Alright then." Seeing this, Jiang Shu didn’t say much more.

The three of them went into a western restaurant, ordered some food casually, and sat down to talk.

"It is indeed people from the Mechanical Disciples behind the scenes, we’ve found evidence they entered Seventh District, but strangely, we didn’t find records of them leaving." Wolf continued, "The number of bodies at the scene of the explosion is also about right."

"Is the count accurate?" Jiang Shu suddenly interrupted.

Wolf shook his head, "Three short, they might have run."

Hearing this, Jiang Shu felt a jolt in his mind and turned to look at Kirie, noticing that she was also looking at him.

Three short? Did the police count wrong at the scene, or were there really fish that slipped through the net?

Or was it, that there were three Mechanical Disciples not in the factory at the time, had other objectives?

He opened his wristwatch, sending a message each to Shen Xuwan and Su Xiaoou: "Where are you?"

Shen Xuwan: At the theater, what’s up?

Su Xiaoou: Practicing my technique, do not disturb.

Jiang Shu felt slightly relieved, maybe he was overthinking it. He sent them messages separately: "Be safe, don’t leave the theater (dormitory), report to me every hour, record yourself and your surroundings."

Shen Xuwan: Will do.

Su Xiaoou: Got it, got it.

"Jiang Shu?" Wolf called out to him.

"Uh-huh, listening." Jiang Shu responded, "I’m worried they might go after other people close to me, just reminding Shen Xuwan and Su Xiaoou."

"Shen Xuwan? People close to you?" Wolf’s wide eyes blinked in confusion. He glanced at Kirie sitting beside Jiang Shu and gave an admiring look.

"Shen Xuwan has come to Black Currant, you didn’t know?" Jiang Shu asked in confusion, "Didn’t I tell you?"

"No." Wolf shook his head quickly, "She’s in Black Currant now? Oh, I see."

"What do you see?" Jiang Shu still didn’t follow Wolf’s cryptic talk.

But Wolf shook his head again, "Thought I understood, but feels like I didn’t."

"..." Jiang Shu was speechless, "Stop talking nonsense, keep discussing the case."

"Oh." Wolf then continued, "I plan to go to Thirteen District tomorrow, you..."

"I’m coming too, but after tomorrow’s variety show." Jiang Shu considered for a moment, "Is going to Thirteen District urgent? I think, it’s better to catch these three Disciples in Seventh District first. Having three people with ill intentions lurking around makes me uneasy."

"That works." Wolf nodded, "I will personally lead a team to check this lead tomorrow."

Jiang Shu felt a bit more relieved, Wolf’s abilities in investigating cases were trustworthy; it was only because there had never been Deception cases before that they were unprepared.

"Check around me, their initial target was me. They wouldn’t have traveled all the way to Seventh District just to give up easily." He added this to ensure Wolf would help clear nearby dangers; he didn’t want Shen Xuwan or Su Xiaoou to be kidnapped again...

While it would look cool to fight them off, it was really tiring.

"Sure." Wolf said, the steak had just been served, and he cut a big piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

The three then stopped talking and focused on the food on their plates.

In the afternoon, Jiang Shu followed Kirie, under the guise of fire service work, into Lonely City’s Seventh TV Station, started surveying the terrain, measuring data, and preparing to set up for tomorrow.

Just as previously gathered information indicated, the live studio of Entertainment First Line was at the top of the TV station building.

The interior of the live studio was not small, with the capacity to hold about three hundred people, with spacious seats and aisles. In the northwest corner of the studio, there was also a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Jiang Shu walked onto the stage, measured his steps, and then gestured by himself, pointing at a spot in front of him, asking Kirie, "Can I put the altar here?"

"Move it a bit further." Kirie estimated the distance, then added, "The monster will be about seven meters long, so be careful, no one should be too close to it."

"Understood." Jiang Shu nodded.
