After crossing over, the plug-in is only your own chat group

"You talk like you're not used to her."

Gao Muming chuckled and his eyes fell on Paimon who ran to the side and pointed at Mora in his wallet with a silly smile.

Ying glanced at Gao Muming, and followed Gao Muming's line of sight to Paimeng. After a moment, Ying asked in a low voice.

"Are you in such a hurry? I heard yesterday that there will be many new stores opening at today's celebration, and I wanted to go shopping with you at the celebration."

When Gao Muming heard Ying invite him, his eyes lit up for a moment and then dimmed.

"I'm really looking forward to going to the festival with you, but I'm sorry, Ying, ever since you decided to help Kamisato Ayaka, I've been very anxious about my own strength."

Hearing Gao Muming say that he was anxious about his own strength, Ying gently comforted Gao Muming.

"You don't have to worry. I can clearly feel that your aura is much stronger than before you came to Inazuma. Among the people I know in Teyvat, your strength is now considered the best."

After hearing Ying's comfort, Gao Muming's mood did not improve, and he explained the reason for his anxiety.

"Although I have some strength, I am still within the scope of human beings at the moment."

"I feel anxious when I think about the high probability of facing a powerful god. Although I know that General Raiden will not take real action against us who are just humans, she is a ruthless god who can cut a narrow gap between the Wuxiang blade with one sword."

"We have no way of guaranteeing that we can escape unscathed from General Raiden's attack."

When saying this, Gao Muming added something in his heart.

"In the plot, if Lei Dianying hadn't been interested in Ying, Ying would have probably died the first time she met General Lei Dian."

"And the last person I know of who was confident that she would not die at the hands of General Raiden was the 'lady' who died in the original plot."

After hearing Gao Muming's words, Ying, who lacked reverence for gods, understood Gao Muming's concerns. Ying quickly walked to Gao Muming's side, stretched out her soft little hand and held Gao Muming's hand, which was obviously trembling.

"I'm sorry for not paying attention to your emotions for so many days."

Feeling the softness of Ying's little hand, Gao Muming's trembling hands stopped shaking and he gently shook his head at Ying.

"It doesn't matter. I'm actually very happy to be involved with you."

As he spoke, Gao Muming's eyes became determined.

"However, if we really face off against each other, I hope that I can at least withstand General Raiden's half-strength attack. As long as I complete the method I came up with, I will definitely be able to achieve this wish."

As he spoke, Takagi Akira looked at Ying.

"Be careful while I'm in seclusion."

After exchanging a few words with Ying and giving some instructions to Paimon, Gao Muming was about to enter the Chen Ge Pot under the gaze of the two when he suddenly turned around and looked at Ying.

"Oh, by the way, remember to report to Kamisato Ayaka and the others about my retreat into Chen Ge Hu, so that she won't have any wild thoughts because she hasn't seen me for a long time."

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Ying nodded reluctantly.

"I understand, but Linghua is our friend, so the situation you imagine won't happen."

"As your friend, Kamisato Ayaka I can trust you, but Kamisato Ayaka is not alone."

"Not all of her subordinates who risked their lives to fight against the Eye Hunting Order are trustworthy. The pressure on people will gradually increase as time goes by."

Gao Muming's words made Ying, who was determined to move forward, open her eyes wide.

"If we don't notify you in advance, we can't be sure if any of those people will become crazy due to excessive pressure and think that I disappeared in order to sell them out to the shogunate and use this credit to exchange for your opportunity to meet General Raiden."

As he spoke, Takagi Akira's eyes darkened and he thought of the cause of the tragedy on Yayun Island mentioned by Wizardmon, and he couldn't help but add a sentence.

"Humans are a very self-righteous species. When a few 'smart people' consciously realize the truth, they will be smart enough to create extremely bad results. Speaking out in advance is to avoid the bad situation we don't want to see as much as possible."

Seeing Gao Muming's serious explanation, Ying nodded.

"Linghua has been busy at the Mulou Teahouse these past two days, working on the maintenance of the celebration. Don't worry, I'll go talk to her later."

After getting Ying's promise, Gao Muming entered the Chen Ge Pot with peace of mind.

After entering the Dust Song Pot, Gao Muming was thinking about which badge he should condense, and the first thing he thought of was "Guardian".

"If you want to resist an attack from a god, the first badge that comes to mind is 'Guardian'."

"But it has already been reserved by me from the Fairy Tail world who has contributed a lot to the chat group."

"..."

After thinking for a long time, Akira Takagi decided to give up the fight for "protection" and give face to himself in the Fairy Tail world.

I'd better not compete with him for 'Guardian', and consider something with a high probability of having a similar effect, such as 'Strong', 'Tenacious', 'Stubborn'..."

"It's so annoying. There are so many choices that it's hard to make a decision."

"...Forget it, let's just draw lots."

After a moment, Gao Muming looked at the note in his hand that said "be strong" and nodded.

"The results came out, and I decided to be 'strong'."

After confirming, Gao Muming sat cross-legged in his own room, closed his eyes and put all his mind into the concentration of the "Strong" badge.

When Gao Muming actually started to condense the badges, a situation occurred that was beyond Gao Muming's expectations.

Unlike the method uploaded by Wizardmon, which has a complex program, a slow process but can be stopped at any time, the method based on the principle of God's Eye is fast but has a fatal flaw: the condensation process must be continuous and seamless.

As soon as it began to condense, Gao Muming immediately noticed this very keenly.

"As expected, taking shortcuts is risky. Before the badge is successfully condensed, I must give up all external perception and devote all my energy to the condensation of the badge."

Thinking of this, Gao Muming frowned, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes.

"This means that I have to race against time to condense the badge. If it takes too long to condense the badge, I will starve to death in the process of condensing the badge without eating for a long time."

After only a moment's silence, Gao Muming, urged by his fear of his own inadequacy, decided to concentrate all his attention and give it a try.

Time just slowly flows by during Gao Muming's retreat.

As soon as Takagi Akira went into seclusion, Ying found Kamisato Ayaka, who was handling celebration affairs at the Mulou Tea House, and told her about Takagi Akira's movements.

"That's it, I understand."

Kamisato Ayaka, who was somewhat curious about why Ying suddenly came to see her, nodded after hearing what Ying told her. When Ying and Paimon were about to leave the room, she called out to them. Under the curious gazes of Ying and Paimon, Kamisato Ayaka spoke awkwardly.

"Um, Ying, tomorrow is the last day of the celebration, and my work just happened to come to an end. Can you please accompany me as a friend? I have some personal matters that I would like to ask for your help."

Because they were in a state of rest, Ying, who was a little bored because she had no plans, immediately nodded and agreed.

"no problem."
