Assassin Wu Liuqi: "???"
Crown Princess of Arendelle: "..."
Kyuubi's world has detected the presence of Main God reincarnators and transmigrators.
They are threatening the peace and stability of the world.
"So you're saying," Elsa said slowly, "that besides us, there are other beings who can travel freely across different worlds?"
Both Elsa and Wu Liuqi were stunned. They had seen the power of the Super-Dimensional Mercenary Guild with their own eyes. They'd experienced it personally. To them, it already felt like the pinnacle of existence.
It's Sam, Not Sam:: "Yep. And there are a lot of them."
Sam recalled what Robin had just told him. He thought back to all those infinite flow and transmigration novels he'd read. His expression grew more serious.
"There's the Main God Space, Reincarnation Paradise, all kinds of systems that let people jump between worlds… way more than you'd think."
I Am Not a Pet: "That many? World-hopping is that common now? I thought we were the only special ones."
It's Sam, Not Sam:: "The universe is huge. Never underestimate it."
I Am Not a Pet: "I'm not underestimating anyone. I just assumed we were unique."
Assassin Wu Liuqi: "Whoa~ I feel like I just learned something top secret!"
The moment his mute status was lifted, Wu Liuqi couldn't hold back.
Crown Princess of Arendelle: "If that's the case… then the Guild's true purpose is pretty obvious, isn't it?"
It's Sam, Not Sam:: "Right. Besides helping you deal with the troubles in your original stories and changing your futures for the better, this is probably the main objective."
That's… a pretty lofty goal, huh?
Everyone clicked their tongues inwardly.
Are we leveling up spiritually or what?
I Am Not a Pet: "Reincarnators and transmigrators… they sound powerful. Are they really that strong?"
Kurama suddenly remembered the few people he'd seen earlier—those guys dressed in modern clothes.
Don't tell me… they were transmigrators or reincarnators?!
But honestly, they didn't seem that strong. He hadn't even needed to take them seriously.
It's Sam, Not Sam:: "Let me put it this way. In your original stories, you're all big shots. Legends. But when you run into certain transmigrators or reincarnators, you're basically background cannon fodder."
I Am Not a Pet: "Hmph. President, you're exaggerating."
I Am Not a Pet: "I've probably already met the targets you're talking about. They were weak as hell. If I hadn't been busy with my own plans, I'd have crushed them."
Oh?
He's met them?
And Kurama is calling them weak?
Then they must've really been bottom-tier.
What's going on with this batch of reincarnators? Why are they so trash?
It's Sam, Not Sam:: "Well… sure, some transmigrators and reincarnators are just side characters."
"But if you run into the strong ones, you'll look like little brothers in comparison."
I Am Not a Pet: "I don't believe it!!!"
Kurama immediately exploded.
I'm the mighty Nine-Tailed Fox! The strongest of the tailed beasts! Whether I can win or not is one thing, but I'm not accepting that verbally!
And those weaklings earlier? They think they can beat me like I'm some kid?
What a joke!
"Believe it or not," Sam shrugged. "But whether you accept it or not, transmigrators and reincarnators don't play fair."
"Transmigrators usually have systems or powerful backers. Reincarnators have the Main God. Their existence is like the Guild. They're walking cheat codes."
I Am Not a Pet: "..."
Damn it. That actually sounds tricky.
Kurama thought about the abilities he'd gained through the Guild. If those guys had the same kind of external boost…
Yeah, that would be a real headache.
This just got complicated.
Back on the Guild's side, after confirming that no one else wanted to take the mission, Sam logged off.
He needed to prepare.
This time, the enemies might have bizarre systems, weird abilities, unpredictable hacks. Sam had read enough infinite-flow novels to know exactly how annoying those people could be.
Still, since the Guild's mission evaluation system had rated it as a Fifth-Tier task requiring a Fifth-Tier leader… as a Sixth-Tier himself, as long as he didn't get cocky, he should be fine.
Compared to transmigrators, reincarnators worried him more.
A transmigrator was usually just one person.
Reincarnators? They moved in groups. A whole team messing around in a mission world could cause far more damage.
"By the way, Robin," Sam suddenly asked, "why do these reincarnators and transmigrators even jump into other worlds and stir up trouble?"
Robin answered calmly:
"Main God Spaces and places like Reincarnation Paradise assign missions to reincarnators. They alter or participate in the plot to gain favor from key characters, or to plunder luck and world origin."
"As for transmigrators, they're often even more dangerous. They either receive an identity through their system after arriving, or descend directly into the world. Through system tasks or their special abilities, they gradually grow stronger."
"And as they grow, the system—or the entity behind their transmigration—secretly harvests the world's luck and origin. Eventually… they refine the entire world."
Sam went silent.
"Refine the world? You're kidding me."
"If it's that insane, why are we even going? If the system or some mastermind behind them shows up, wouldn't we get wiped out instantly?"
Robin replied evenly:
"During missions, the Super-Dimensional Mercenary Guild will shield the world, preventing the transmigrator's backer from detecting its coordinates."
"Without outside support, their cheat abilities are severely weakened. Surely you can handle that?"
"As for system-bound transmigrators, the Guild can directly lock onto and attack the system, stripping most of its functions—or even forcing it to crash."
Sam: "..."
Systems can crash?
Don't lie to me. I may not have read that many books, but still.
"In short, during the mission, the Guild guarantees you won't be disturbed by external forces. But if you mess around and get yourself killed, that's on you."
Sam took a deep breath.
"In that case… fine."
"Let's start the mission."
"....."
