Chapter 27: The Tacet Discord Terminator! Afterimage of the Destroyer!
"…??? A Name Change Card? Maybe it should be called a Show-Off Name Card instead…"
Seeing that his treasure chest opening had gone awry—pulling a Silver-tier item out of a Gold Treasure Chest—was bad enough.
But to think it didn't even have a shred of practical value… No, well, changing his name did have a tiny bit of value to him.
However, just changing a name, even if it made the name look flashy, he still didn't feel like this thing was worth the Silver tier price tag!
"Mm. Rover, aren't you going to change your name back?"
Chixia and Yangyang asked with curious expressions. Although they didn't think the name 'Little Drifter' was all that bad.
But if he could change it back to 'Rover', they felt that would be much better.
"Change it, of course, I have to change it back. Otherwise, wouldn't this thing have been a complete waste of a draw?"
"Sigh. I didn't expect that the first person to get a bad pull from a chest would be me."
As Rover spoke, he roasted his own bad luck attributes. Thinking back to his previous life, his luck with gacha pulls had already been quite terrible.
He hadn't expected that even now, the attribute of being an unlucky chief would still accompany him.
However, he completely failed to consider… that currently, he was also the only person who had synthesized a Seven-Colored Treasure Chest!
Changing the name was very simple; it only required a silent confirmation within his mind.
When he saw his name change from the original 'Little Drifter' to a colorful, glowing 'Rover'… although it looked a bit ostentatious, at least it was finally changed back completely.
"Let's go. We delayed quite a bit of time earlier, and the sky is about to get dark now. Let's go down and meet up with Baizhi sooner rather than later, and then head back to Jinzhou City."
After Rover finished speaking, he didn't use any tools. He simply wrapped his arms around the two girls and flew directly from the high ground to the vicinity of the Tacet Field, where the Crownless was originally supposed to appear.
Also, due to the emergence of the chat group, the Crownless, aside from gaining its own consciousness, had already met with Rover previously.
Therefore, it couldn't appear again and run out just to forcefully feed.
"Wow. Is this what it feels like to be carried? It really is a novel experience. There aren't any anomalies here right now, but why don't we see Baizhi?"
After landing, Yangyang was a little shy about Rover's actions just now, but Chixia acted very naturally.
She even looked around from time to time, and after discovering that the signal and everything else had been restored, she immediately began scanning for Baizhi's location.
"I am here. Is this the Rover? He looks incredibly healthy; is he really the one who was in a coma before?"
Baizhi walked out slowly from the side. After responding to Chixia, all her attention was focused on Rover.
And the changes in Rover right now truly surprised her… because currently, even without relying on You'tan to scan him, she could sense it.
Among all the living creatures she had ever seen, there had never been an existence with such vigorous life force.
"Hehe. Hello Baizhi, I am the Rover. I assume you saw the rewards I obtained earlier, so regarding my physical condition… I think you don't need to worry about me at all anymore."
"But I still want to thank you for your treatment earlier."
Rover smiled and nodded. While greeting her, he extended his right hand toward Baizhi. After a gentle handshake, he spoke up to explain again.
"Mm. As long as you're fine. Then let us hurry back to Jinzhou. Magistrate Jinhsi must have been waiting for you for a long time."
Baizhi nodded. Her words essentially decided for both Yangyang and Chixia as well.
However, the two girls were long accustomed to this. After all, usually when they were with Baizhi… it was generally Baizhi who made the calls.
"Alright, then let's move quickly. In the future, just call me Rover. No need for any honorifics. Because from now on, we can be considered friends. What do you say?"
Rover nodded, and after speaking to Baizhi, he gave a playful wink with his right eye.
Clearly, whether it was due to the awakening of his past life's memories, or perhaps because he had completely laid down the heavy burden of saving the world…
He naturally wouldn't be as heavy and solemn as he was in the original world line.
"Mm. Alright, Rover."
Baizhi was slightly stunned at first, then the corners of her mouth turned up slightly as she nodded to Rover.
Following that, the group set foot on the journey to Jinzhou. However, they hadn't walked for long before… Rover and the others encountered some Tacet Discords.
"Roar~ It's the Rover… The Tacet Discord Terminator, the Rover, is here! Everyone run."
Leading them was a Tsunami-class Spearback, followed by a pack of Glacio-class Dreadmane Wolves.
Such a combination should originally have been hostile to each other. After all, bears and wolves often fought fiercely over territory.
But now, not only had the two sides become peaceful and harmonious, but the moment they discovered the Rover…
That Spearback shouted in human speech and was actually covering the retreat of the several Dreadmane Wolves.
"Good lord, do Tsunami-class and Glacio-class ones have brains like this now? And the key point is, look at the level of unity between them."
Rover finished speaking with a look of surprise, and immediately flashed away… reappearing instantly right in front of the group of Tacet Discords.
"Freeze."
Raising a finger, a stream of Spectro power enveloped the several Tacet Discords.
"My life is over… My life is over ah…"
Discovering that their bodies couldn't move, the Spearback and Dreadmane Wolves didn't beg for mercy. Instead, they closed their eyes one after another.
And wails of despair came from their mouths.
At this moment, it was as if the Rover was some peerless great demon king, using the strength of the Tsunami middle level to bully a few Glacio and Tsunami-class small fry.
"I find that you bear have quite a lot of drama in you. Now, answer my questions properly. If you satisfy me, it's not impossible to let you live."
Rover couldn't help but grin, clearly left a bit speechless by these Tacet Discords.
"Ah? R… Really? Then please ask, Little Bear will tell you everything I know without reservation."
Seeing hope for survival, the Spearback instantly transformed into something like a lapdog. The speed of this transformation…
One could say Rover even thought this bear had already surpassed ninety percent of the actors from his previous life.
"Hehe. You really know how to adapt to the situation, huh. Then first tell me, what does 'Tacet Discord Terminator' mean?"
Encountering a situation like this, Rover didn't mind spending a little time to understand it.
While he was asking, Yangyang and the other girls also walked over. When they saw the interaction between the Spearback and the Rover…
For a moment, they all felt a sense of witnessing something impossible.
After all, no matter what was said in the chat group before, it ultimately remained at the stage of hearsay.
But now, wasn't this living example appearing right before their eyes?

( Translator-kun: If Rover kills the Spearback, in the next chapter, then I'm gonna terminate this project right here, right now. )
