Black Book

Chapter 23: Napping Anywhere

On the other side, seeing Zhu Haomiao suddenly coming to his senses, Ye Wanning smiled and nodded.

“The educational models of geniuses and ordinary people cannot be generalized.”

"Everyone's mind and fate are different. Some people are born smart and can see through confusion and clarify their [Dao Heart] since childhood. Naturally, they can enter the Fantasy Realm in advance."

"[Dao Xin]?"

"Well, other countries also call it soul strength, intention, will, self-awareness, etc., but I still think our [Dao Xin] is a more accurate description."

“Although Dao Heart cannot be seen or touched, it is more important than any other concrete conditions.”

"It can eliminate confusion, strengthen one's original intention, and resist invisible distortion and corruption. It is the inner root of a person's strength!"

"You should have learned this knowledge in the second half of this year..."

Looking at Zhu Haomiao's solemn expression, Ye Wanning sighed helplessly.

"This is another reason why I don't think highly of you. Not only are you far behind other contestants in terms of strength, but you are also completely blank in terms of supernatural knowledge."

"If you rashly enter the vast fantasy realm of the [Boundless Type], it will be extremely difficult to survive, let alone fight against geniuses from other countries."

"Finally, you're talking too late. The registration deadline is coming soon. At this time, the places for the competition must have been allocated. Who can make room for you?"

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao bit his lip unwillingly.

"Is there really no other way?"

Seeing the boy's stubborn and unwilling expression, Ye Wanning's heart softened.

"I'll ask for you, but don't get your hopes up."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao looked directly into Ye Wanning's eyes, with sincere gratitude welling up in his heart.

"Thank you, Senior Sister. You are such a good person."

Ye Wanning was inexplicably given a nice guy card and pursed her lips in confusion, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Okay, back to the topic. Do you know why I asked you to come?"

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao shook his head frankly.

"Because there is something very special about you. Your brain... no, there is something very powerful deep in your soul. It blocks my perception of you."

[Black Book]?!

Zhu Haomiao's heart trembled, but he calmed down in an instant.

It's not that he looks down on Ye Wanning, but the [Black Book] is a product of another dimension. It is something that transcends time, space and other forms of existence, and cannot be thought of using categories such as cause and effect, attributes, existence, logic, and non-existence.

Even the entities he controls are just projections of the higher dimensions mapped into reality.

Theoretically speaking, everyone can only indirectly know the [Black Book] from the visions he shows.

Human beings...are limited by their own existence and can never understand [transcendental things].

On the other hand, it is impossible to completely conceal one's own supernatural powers.

If I really encounter danger, I will not just sit there and wait for death, I will definitely release the power of the [Black Book].

What's more, the information of a "young victim" whose name we still don't know has been leaked once, but so many days have passed and no police have come to find him, which shows that the supernatural power in this world is not significant, at least it does not require the intervention of law enforcement.

In the future, if I want to climb to the heavens step by step, such things will inevitably happen more and more.

Therefore, the best response strategy is not to hide it, but to mislead people generously, so that people can focus on themselves as a person, rather than associating them with souls and foreign objects from different time and space.

After figuring this out, Zhu Haomiao calmed down and looked at Ye Wanning calmly.

"How do you need me to cooperate with you?"

"It's very simple, just lie down."

Pointing to the examination bed that had been prepared nearby, Ye Wanning smiled sweetly.

Zhu Haomiao: “…………” I originally thought that the ‘lie down’ I said before was just a description, but I didn’t expect it to be a literal lie down! ?
With a complicated expression, he lay down on the examination bed. A familiar feeling inexplicably came over him and Zhu Haomiao subconsciously clenched his fists.

I am a fisherman and a fisherman!
Don’t bully the young…

Wait, I think I've experienced this before...

"Don't be nervous, Senior Sister, I will be very gentle."

Seeing the young man tense all over, Ye Wanning said jokingly.

Immediately, a faint mental power dissipated from her brows and evenly covered Zhu Haomiao's entire body.

On the other side, Zhu Haomiao found that Ye Wanning was just staring at him blankly with her eyes slightly glowing. After waiting for a long time, he didn't feel anything special. His tense muscles gradually relaxed and he couldn't help yawning.

"You can sleep now. Don't worry about me. Just sleep peacefully."

"Uh... not very good."

I took 30,000 yuan from you and I just come here to sleep?

Otherwise you can beat me up, otherwise I won’t feel at ease holding this money.

"It doesn't matter, it's better to say he fell asleep!"

"........."

If you talk about this, I'll be very sleepy!

After persisting for more than ten minutes, Zhu Haomiao couldn't help yawning again, and his consciousness gradually faded.

So bored... so sleepy...

By the way, I'm not being lazy, I'm working hard...

Don’t take my [Dao Xin]…

With the last bit of consciousness still muttering about his [Dao Heart], Zhu Haomiao soon fell into a deep sleep, breathing softly.

When he opened his eyes again, the sun outside the window was already hanging in the center.

"........."

Could it be that the supernatural power of [Sloth] is to take a nap anywhere?
That’s good, at least I don’t have to worry about insomnia anymore…

Zhu Haomiao smacked his lips, got up from the bed, turned around and saw Ye Wanning sitting beside him, scratching her head over a pile of data.

In a trance, Zhu Haomiao recalled the time when he had just traveled through time, when many medical staff were scratching their heads over his various examination reports.

"Sister, what did you gain?"

"Hmm... that's weird! This isn't scientific!"

That’s right, that’s what the medical staff said at the beginning!

Gulu gulu~
At this moment, the "groaning" of the boy's stomach interrupted Ye Wanning's thoughts.

She looked up at Zhu Haomiao, who was a little embarrassed, then looked at the time, and then she reacted.

"Sorry to have kept you here. Go eat."

"Uh... Senior Sister, do you want to come with us?"

"No, I have to analyze this data carefully."

Seeing Ye Wanning's serious look as she was deep in thought, Zhu Haomiao could only quietly leave the meditation room and embark on the path of spiritual cultivation alone.

"Control [Gluttony], [Dao Heart] +3"

More than an hour later, Zhu Haomiao lay lifelessly on a chair in the cafeteria, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes.

This lunch every day feels like going through a tribulation. I don’t enjoy eating at all!
But I have to eat as much as possible to hone my [Dao Xin], and it’s best to eat at the limit of my body and mind, and I can’t just deal with it like I do breakfast and dinner...
