Chapter 29: The Grim Reaper Elementary Student
When Lan Xingyu was in the orphanage in his past life, the teacher once talked about π. A naive and romantic child who ran wild like a mud monkey every day couldn't understand the concept of infinity at all; he just felt it was very impressive.
That night, risking being reported by his roommates and potentially getting beaten up, he hid under his blanket reading manga. Seeing Sun Wukong make a wish to the Dragon, a sudden thought occurred to him: 'Why don't I ask the magical Dragon what π equals?'
Afterward, his thoughts were like a continuous river, like the Yellow River overflowing, unstoppable. Even when he got beaten up, he would dream about collecting the seven Dragon Balls.
Later, as he grew older, he understood the concept of infinity and realized it was unrealistic. Well, it wasn't that collecting Dragon Balls was unrealistic, but memorizing π was unrealistic, because he went through a chuunibyou phase.
Even later, with the crushing of his childhood dream, every time he saw wish-granting items in anime like the Holy Grail, Dragon Balls, Aladdin's Lamp, or the Box of Elysium appear with heaven and earth changing color, as if they wanted the whole world to know they had arrived, he would complain a little: "You guys are all so awesome, can you finish reciting π?"
And is memorizing π hard? It's not hard. Just find a good computer, and as long as there is enough running space, it can calculate until the end of time. You great beings can't be worse than a computer, right?
Listening to those strings of numbers, Lan Xingyu felt the thrill of his childhood dream coming true. He asked Ancient One with great excitement, "How is it, Teacher? How is my method? It perfectly solves all problems!"
'I'd like to see who can make the next wish before it finishes speaking!' Lan Xingyu thought.
Moreover, this can also absorb the evil thoughts of people in the world, so those demon gods from the dark dimensions who rely on evil thoughts as energy will no longer receive supplies from Earth.
Ancient One had to admire that her Disciple's train of thought was quite something! This wish was simply insane! But I like it.
Ancient One brought the Holy Grail back to the Sanctum. A Holy Grail that could recite numbers was still worth collecting. Ancient One planned to put it in the Sanctum because the demon gods could see the Holy Grail there. They could experience the joy of it being right in front of them but unattainable!
Today, in the dark dimension, Dormammu was still enjoying the various negative energies brought to him by his minions on Earth. Suddenly, he discovered that the power coming from Earth had dropped by 99.99%... leaving only a tiny bit of negative energy provided by his believers.
Dormammu was stunned. Had all these Earthlings gone to believe in the Holy Light? How did all the evil thoughts suddenly disappear? No, I have to see. Following the energy of his believers, Dormammu sensed Earth. He discovered that all the evil thoughts were gathering in one direction. He knew that place: the New York Sanctum!
Next, Dormammu was dumbfounded! Who the hell did this! Using a Divine Artifact that can absorb a planet's evil energy just to recite numbers? You cut off our demon gods' energy source just to listen to it recite numbers? And how long will this recitation last? What is it even reciting? You guys are the real devils, right? And you specifically put it in a place where I can see it. Is your Sanctum getting arrogant, or can I, Dormammu, no longer wield my blade?
Since you have already set it up, as long as I break it, the energy inside will be mine. Then I will have my believers transmit the energy over. Hahahaha. Ancient One, oh Ancient One, you really are old! The same scene was playing out in multiple dimensions. The demon gods of the major dark dimensions all ordered their followers to go to the New York Sanctum to snatch the item.
Ancient One had long anticipated this. She withdrew all the mages from the New York Sanctum and stayed to guard the Sanctum herself. Of course, Ancient One was not there to stop them from taking the Holy Grail, because letting them take the Holy Grail was her plan.
Ancient One wanted them to fight like dogs. No matter which faction obtained the Holy Grail, they would become the target of everyone. Because this concerned the interests of all of them.
Previously, the evil energy on Earth was divided among several big shots. Everyone was at peace. Now it was different. In their view, obtaining the Holy Grail meant obtaining all the evil energy on Earth.
And the longer they kept the Holy Grail, the more they could get, but they didn't know that the Holy Grail was in a state of balance. It used as much energy as it absorbed every day. So their plan to 'raise pigs' would inevitably fail. Just thinking about their desperate expressions when the Holy Grail recovered itself after they destroyed it made Ancient One very happy!
And their infighting could reduce the risks for the mages. It would increase their internal attrition!
Perfect! Ancient One even started to think, why not pass the position to Xingyu! Forget it! To become the Sorcerer Supreme, one must inherit the power of the Vishanti. Although this would give every Sorcerer Supreme a very high starting point, it also limited the end point of the Sorcerer Supreme.
Admittedly, even Ancient One was still some distance away from that end point. But Lan Xingyu was different; he was someone who had the chance to surpass that end point!
"Keep growing, Xingyu. Teacher is looking forward to your future!" At this moment, Ancient One was sitting quietly on the roof of the New York Sanctum, looking at the night sky.
Lan Xingyu was in a very good mood when he returned home. He had resolved this incident in less than an hour. He had also fulfilled his wish from his past life. A huge profit!
It's still early. league of legends, here I come! I wonder when PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will come out in this world?
Coming out of the room, he saw Panda being pressed on the head by one of Amber's paws, sealing the husky's intelligence with strength. Seeing this, Lan Xingyu understood. That's right, there is always only one truth! It must be that Panda saw new keyboards and mice appear again. Seeing that they weren't round at all, it wanted to go up and play with them again, and then got sealed by one of Amber's paws! Lan Xingyu had plenty of internal monologue.
That's right! There is always only one truth. If I don't cosplay that eternal Grim Reaper elementary student when I'm in the first grade, I'm doing a disservice to my age!
"Jarvis, are you there?"
"Always at your service, Mr. Xingyu!"
"I'm designing an outfit. Find the best suit tailoring company later and have them make one... no, 10 sets of the clothes I designed. They can appropriately beautify the details, but the overall look cannot change too much," Lan Xingyu said excitedly. He opened the computer and began to create the design drawing for Conan's classic blue outfit.
"Jarvis, I've sent it to you. I'll leave the rest to you!"
"Rest assured, sir."
The clothes and tie are together, so the only thing missing is a watch? Lan Xingyu immediately ran towards Tony's laboratory. You ask why he went to find Tony? Just like the clothes, couldn't he just find a factory and have them make an identical one?
Lan Xingyu's answer was a definite no. Of course not, a watch that can't shoot a tranquilizer dart isn't a good prop. And a factory wouldn't make you a tranquilizer gun. So Lan Xingyu had to ask Tony for help.
"What? You want me to help you build a watch tranquilizer gun? What do you need this for? Can't you just make people faint without them knowing? Why do you need this, and you even want a pop-up aiming scope that can aim?"
"I'm just making it for fun. Just tell me if you can make it or not?"
Originally, Tony wasn't planning to help Lan Xingyu make it; after all, giving a child a tranquilizer gun was dangerous. But thinking about Xingyu's abilities, it seemed safer to let him use weapons from Earth.
"Then thanks, Tony!" After thanking him, he immediately cast two healing spells on Tony.
"But Tony, the number of times you've tested the armor has increased!" Lan Xingyu was a bit worried.
"You're almost at ten percent today." Lan Xingyu was already considering whether or not to tell Tony about his father.
"It's fine! Don't I have you? Rest assured, I'm confident. Go to bed early. By the way, when is your birthday?" Tony asked suddenly.
"It's still early, June 2nd next year. What's up? Did your conscience kick in and you want to give me a gift?"
"In your dreams. Then do you know when my birthday is?" Tony changed the subject.
"May 29th, the unlock password for Pepper's phone. Speaking of which, haven't you guys kissed already? Why haven't you brought Sister Potts home yet?"
"What are you, a child, worrying about adult matters for? Go, go. I'm going to start the experiment. Bye." Tony pushed Lan Xingyu out of the laboratory.
Lan Xingyu shrugged. Forget it, ignore him. Anyway, the goal was achieved. Lan Xingyu walked towards his gaming area. Today he was going to dominate the battlefield!
