It was an ordinary day. The Xia Yus were all going about their business, and those with nothing to do were idling in the Chat Group.
It should have stayed that way, but a Red Envelope shattered the peace.
[tomb raider] has posted a Red Envelope: [Queen Himiko's Corruption.avi].
"!!!"
An abrupt Red Envelope suddenly blew all The Xia Yus out of hiding. Looking at the name of this Red Envelope, The Xia Yus were a bit dazed.
Is this kind of thing allowed to be posted?
All The Xia Yus were stunned. Ancient Tomb Xia Yu was actually posting NSFW content so flagrantly, and he even managed to send it. This was simply outrageous!
With this mindset, some of the more impatient Xia Yus clicked open the Red Envelope with lightning speed and browsed through it with a critical eye, but they quickly discovered a problem.
[dark souls iii]: You bastard, there's clearly no smut in here! Why the hell did you pick such a misleading name!
[clash of clans]: Exactly! Clickbaiters like you deserve to have their junk kicked!
[Genshin Impact]: Tsk, I really thought we were getting some adult content.
Seeing these reviews from The Xia Yus who had finished watching, the others who were still on the fence also clicked the Red Envelope and browsed through it.
After finishing, they had only one thought: this content was damn wholesome. Inside the Red Envelope were just Himiko's memories of using witchcraft; it wasn't heart-pounding at all like the name suggested!
[tomb raider]: Really? I don't believe you.
[dark souls iii]: (#▼dish▼) You're looking for a beating, aren't you!
[tomb raider]: Hehehe, look closer, don't skip any segments.
Hearing this, The Xia Yus frowned, realizing things weren't that simple.
The Xia Yus who had opened the Red Envelope watched carefully again. Soon, they discovered certain pixelated scenes interspersed within the memories.
[tomb raider]: This Himiko is incredibly fresh and delicious, a must-try!
[dark souls i]: Impressive... [clash of clans]: Impressive... [soul knight]: Impressive... [elden ring]: Impressive... [dark souls iii]: Smash the repeaters! You bunch of Ning Caichens! I, Xia Yu, am ashamed to be associated with you!
The other Xia Yus:...It has to be said, the essence of humanity is indeed being pervy, and now, The Xia Yus have all awakened this essence.
[resident evil]: Ahem, you can't do this again next time. Be careful or the group might get banned.
resident evil Xia Yu, who had been offline for a long time, suddenly appeared and issued a stern condemnation. Seeing this message, the other Xia Yus curled their lips. What a closet pervert.
[tomb raider]: Don't worry, I've already subdued Himiko. Now that I have the main ingredient, why would I worry about lacking side dishes?
Hearing this, all The Xia Yus were startled—not because Himiko had been subdued, as that was no harder for them than deciding what to eat tomorrow.
What surprised them was what Ancient Tomb Xia Yu had gone through to be able to say such bold and suggestive things so naturally now.
He used to be such a pure... never mind, none of them were pure. They couldn't even lie to themselves with that line.
But he had indeed changed, from a closet pervert to an open one. Was this what growth looked like?
Ancient Tomb Xia Yu naturally wouldn't go out of his way to explain their guesses. After solving the biggest problem, Himiko, the storms around the deserted island had ceased.
The blizzards entrenched in the center of the island were also gradually dissipating. Perhaps before long, even this deserted island would no longer be a secret, and the mysterious Yamatai would be observable and accessible to others.
To ensure future visitors had a "good experience," Xia Yu sent out all the Storm Warriors to scavenge for treasures for him. As long as it looked like it was worth something, they were to take it all. Not a single coin was to be left behind!
Once those Storm Warriors finished scavenging all the treasures, they could notify him. At that time, he would take everything in one go, leaving absolutely nothing of value.
During this time, he had naturally returned with Lara to the temporary camp at the endurance shipwreck. If there was time, he might even go explore some ancient tombs.
But that was for later. The most important thing right now was Himiko's witchcraft memories.
[resident evil]: I've looked closely at Himiko's witchcraft memories. As expected, controlling the power of heaven and earth isn't that easy. It requires so much ritual preparation, and one can't leave the range of the established domain, otherwise the witchcraft will fail.
resident evil Xia Yu broke the silence of the group. He had just browsed through that memory carefully and quickly found the restrictions on using witchcraft to control the power of heaven and earth.
Seeing that the big shot had entered serious mode, the other Xia Yus suppressed their pervy urges and began watching the memory Red Envelope with a studious mindset.
As they watched, they also learned the secret of how Himiko could control storms and waves: the Domain.
A Domain, in simple terms, is an area where one exercises sovereignty. Within the range of a Domain, while one cannot do absolutely anything they want, it's not far off.
Adventurer Xia Yu's Plague Domain was the prototype of a complete domain. Within the Plague Domain, the use of Necromancy Spells gained a massive advantage.
A true Plague Domain was perfectly demonstrated in the hands of the Necromancer lady. Not only could she transform enemy corpses anytime and anywhere, but she could also generate Plague Spiders to assist in battle.
Himiko could use the power of storms because of her Domain as well. She used witchcraft to cover the entire deserted island and the surrounding sea, allowing her to use her own power to catalyze the forces of heaven and earth.
However, because the range was so vast and her own power was somewhat insufficient, she couldn't achieve precise control and could only opt for area-of-effect attacks.
Furthermore, this Domain wasn't something that could be set up at will. It was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and couldn't be moved easily. Therefore, she was trapped on the deserted island, unable to leave.
The rule of the Kingdom of Yamatai was limited to the range of this deserted island, and she could only be the queen of a small island nation.
After learning the secret of Himiko's control over the power of heaven and earth, although it didn't meet The Xia Yus' expectations, it was better than nothing.
[elden ring]: It's okay. At least through lateral thinking, it provides a new direction for research.
Tarnished Xia Yu had already been intentionally or unintentionally suggesting soul magic to Teacher Sellen. However, while Teacher Sellen showed some interest, the vast majority of her focus remained on the Primeval Current Magic of glintstone.
Getting Teacher Sellen to give up on the Primeval Current was going to be a long and difficult road.
Furthermore, Tarnished Xia Yu was preparing to conquer Stormveil Castle. If he delayed too long, what if he didn't encounter Margit, the Fell Omen? He still wanted to use Teacher Margit to test how far his current strength had progressed.
Well, he also wanted to check if little red Hat Rodrika was still there. She couldn't just stay there forever like an NPC without the plot advancing... [dark souls i]: But we in the Souls-like world can't use the power of heaven and earth at all, right? Our place isn't shaped like a normal universe. Hmm... maybe the Elden Ring World can.
[dark souls i]: After all, the Elden Ring World has outer planets, and the starry sky is real.
[dark souls iii]: A certain world's skybox stars are going to cry.
[Genshin Impact]: What's that noise?
[dark souls i]: Don't interrupt. The Elden Ring World doesn't just have a starry sky; it also has all sorts of Outer Gods. So truly speaking, your world is the most dangerous. And not even counting the Outer Gods in the sky, your Lands Between has at least six or more Outer God faiths.
Undead Xia Yu was suffering in Blighttown. He had already rung the first bell. To ring the second bell, he had to defeat Quelaag, the Witch of Chaos—the spider girl. To be honest, he didn't really want to fight her.
But Quelaag had long since lost most of her will and was impossible to communicate with. She only had a sliver of obsession left, an obsession to plunder humanity for her sister... [elden ring]: The future looks bleak... [nier: automata]: Don't worry about so much. Become the Elden Lord first. I've already become the Master of the Globe.
[elden ring]: Master of the Globe?
[nier: automata]: It's just a shorthand for the sole master of Earth. By the way, I happen to have a batch of Android bodies here that haven't had systems recorded yet. Anyone who wants one can take it. You can set the personality and record it into the system yourselves later; I won't help you with that. Just a side note: they're realistic, very realistic.
Neil Xia Yu's situation was much simpler. After taking command of the Android and Machine Lifeform factions, he began rebuilding Earth.
With those small machine lifeforms numbering in the hundreds of millions, basic construction on Earth was very easy. Basically, a city could be established in no time.
The cities were inhabited by retired Androids. Those who hated war and longed for peace wore smiles every day, praising the great achievements of the Human Lord.
If Xia Yu hadn't felt it was too high-profile, they even planned to build a monument for him with a statue over a hundred meters tall, to be placed in every city for all Androids to admire.
The YoRHa Unit, who were once combat soldiers, no longer had any mission requirements and had retired as well. Now, their daily task was to fight for the position of Xia Yu's bodyguard.
As the person being fought over, Xia Yu could only say his body was getting thinner by the day and he was about to give out. He was already planning to ask Chief Xia Yu for some energy potions.
On a side note, 9S realized his dream of going shopping with 2B and successfully bought 2B a T-shirt.
Eve also played lightheartedly with his brother every day, realizing his dream of having his brother play with him. Adam was also enjoying it; he seemed to feel what it meant to be human and what emotions were.
A2 stayed by the side of her support, which was Xia Yu. No matter how Xia Yu's bodyguards changed, A2's position was always reserved... Seeing that Neil Xia Yu had actually uploaded very realistic, unactivated Android bodies, one very idle Xia Yu couldn't sit still.
[clash of clans]: Good brother! (Handshake)
[soul knight]: Not bad, not bad. If I weren't still here with the Necromancer learning Necromancy Spells, I'd definitely take one to accompany me into the dungeon.
[tomb raider]: By the way, your Necromancy Spells are very useful. Giving them back to you, and I've sent the usage memories too.
[soul knight] @[the talos principle]: Brother, you there? Come out and integrate to sync memories.
[the talos principle]: Coming, coming.
In a short while, The Xia Yus' memories were integrated and synced again. At the same time, AI Xia Yu copied a few more sets and put them into the Newbie Gift Pack so that newcomers joining the group could receive them directly.
[the talos principle]: Slipping away, slipping away.
With the synchronization of memories, The Xia Yus' knowledge and skills grew significantly once again. They only needed to continue practicing for their strength to grow steadily.
Of course, excluding The Xia Yus who directly killed people to seize power; for them, practicing was not as fast as just killing people.
[clash of clans]: Speaking of which, it's about time for a newcomer, right? How long has it been?
[soul knight]: It's only been a few days... it's not that fast.
[clash of clans] @[dark souls iii]: Jinx, come out and say something. Also, make a vow. Last time you vowed, a newcomer arrived.
[dark souls iii]: Feudal superstitions are to be avoided. We must believe in science.
[clash of clans]: Just try it. It doesn't cost anything to try anyway.
[soul knight]: Try it.
[marvel]: Try it.
[Genshin Impact]: Try it.
[nier: automata]: Try it... Looking at the long line of "try it" in the Chat Group, Ashen Xia Yu was slightly speechless. How did he become the representative of the jinxes!
Today, he, Xia Yu, was going to let everyone know.
He! Is! Not!! A Jinx!!!
[dark souls iii]: If a newcomer comes, I'll go lift the Fire Keeper's skirt on the spot!
[Xia Yu has joined the Chat Group!]
[Xia Yu has joined the Chat Group!]
[dark souls iii]:...F*ck!
[dark souls iii]: Fine, a man must keep his word. Hehehe, Fire Keeper, here I come!
[clash of clans]:... [dark souls i]: As expected of him!
[Xia Yu]: Chat Group?
[Xia Yu]: Holy cow, so this is my true cheat. I thought the AFK Cultivation System was my cheat!
[tomb raider]: Another one with a system? I thought I was the exception.
[clash of clans]: We're all Xia Yus, why are you guys so special!
[Xia Yu]: Help! I'm being chased by a monster! I'm going to die, I'm going to die!
[clash of clans]: Newbie, go get the Newbie Gift Pack!
