"Oh yeah, when is Isayama coming over?"

Leaving aside Aoyama who was muttering, "Changing the subject again," Kasumigaoka asked Li Nian about Isayama, and after hearing that she would be here at breakfast time, she said with emotion, "She's pretty enthusiastic, too."

"Well, come and have a meal with enthusiasm."

Isayama did arrive on time for lunch. As she said, she jogged over and was sweating all over. This time she brought several sets of sportswear with her, and was obviously ready to work out some sweat.

Kasumigaoka greeted her at the dinner table. Isayama was not very curious about her appearance. He felt that it was not strange to see anyone related to Li Nian in Sakurasou. He was very hungry. After greeting her, he picked up various things and wolfed them down without hesitation. While eating, he casually asked, "Just give me your instructions later. I will fully cooperate."

Li Nian hummed and looked at his phone while eating. On the Line group chat, Sawamura seemed to have heard about it from Misaki and shouted, "I also want to be a part of such an interesting story!" He also @ed all the members, "This is a precious opportunity to see the actual battle scenes of exorcists in the three-dimensional world! Aren't you interested? Let's go to Sakurasou!" It seems that he is planning to chase everyone over to be a part of the fun. Soon, he got affirmative responses such as "I want to see it so much!", "You must come", "I'm already here", and "Everyone is going? Then I want to go too."

Li Nian was stunned when he saw this. After a moment's thought, wouldn't all the members of Sakurasou and the club be there? Almost all the friends he knew were here. Why was there such a big fuss?

Kasumigaoka put down her phone and said with a smile, "It seems that the audience seats will become particularly spectacular now."

"...They all eat melons and never mind the trouble."

Kasumigaoka could understand everyone's thoughts. She came to Sakurasou to talk to Shiina about something, but that kid was unlikely to get up early. Kasumigaoka was not in a hurry to find her as they had already arrived at Sakurasou. She was more curious about how Li Nian would complete the action design of the animated short film through fighting with Isayama.

She had seen a brief fight between Li Nian and two attacking monsters, but the subsequent battle took place in Fengjue. She had never seen how strong Li Nian was as an exorcist, so she was naturally very interested... Kasumigaoka understood that not only her, but everyone in Sakurasou and the club who knew Li Nian's identity as an exorcist were very curious about this matter.

Having said that, Li Nian’s opponent this time is not a monster, but another exorcist, Isayama Yomi.

Kasumigaoka looked at the other protagonist and thought, "If it were you, would you be able to force him to use his full strength?"

At this time, Isayama was seen chewing a steamed bun. He noticed Kasumigaoka's gaze, but didn't understand what it meant. He didn't realize that he and Li Nian would become the objects of onlookers, and even that they were expected to force out Li Nian's strength...

If she really knew, she would probably just laugh until her stomach hurt and say, "You all are too kind to me."

Chapter 390: As a mage, formation is a basic skill

Isayama was full and happy. After finishing his meal, he leaned back in his chair contentedly, patted his slightly bulging belly, and smiled until his eyes narrowed.

I have to say that Li Nian's cooking skills are extraordinary. She can eat steamed buns, salty porridge with a few side dishes and fried eggs, which is very comfortable. She came early just for this, and now she feels that this is a wise decision.

"Phew~~~ I'm looking forward to lunch and dinner even more!"

"You've just finished your meal and you're already thinking about dinner... I understand, I won't treat you unfairly."

Li Nianyi thought that all the members of Sakurasou and the club would be here today, so he should play the role of host - he was the only one who would take the lead and make all the troublesome preparations to entertain everyone comfortably. The ultimate goal was naturally to let the guests eat well, have fun and spend a wonderful day.

Of course, you also have to do all the important things while doing it.

Kasumigaoka didn't eat like a hungry ghost like Isayama, but she ate very comfortably. She joked with Li Nian: "I really want classmate Li Nian to cook three meals a day for me. How lucky is it to marry you?"

"Yes, yes. I can also make money to support the family and make my parents-in-law worry less. There is no other good daughter-in-law like me in the world." Li Nian was not modest at all. She was full and satisfied at this time, and responded lazily.

"I just don't know if she's an easy child to raise."

"Of course I do. Captain America will praise my hot butt whenever he sees it."

"Wow, that really makes me curious. Can I have a look if I have a chance?"

"I won't show you."

"Tch, stingy."

The two of them talked nonsense for a while and smiled at each other.

"What are you talking about..." Qingshan didn't quite understand the two people's messy conversation, but he still put his hands together and said, "I'm full, thank you for the treat, thank you classmate Li Nian, the food is as delicious as always, now I feel that I can work hard today."

Everyone had a very comfortable breakfast. They all lay down on their chairs in tacit understanding. They were not in a hurry to get into their respective working states and do what they were supposed to do. Instead, they wanted to enjoy the comfort and laziness at this moment.

There's no need to rush. Senior Ren and Senior Misaki haven't woken up yet. The action design of the animation is originally meant for those two to see.

Isayama had just finished his meal, so he asked her to rest for a while before exercising. She herself was not in a hurry to ask. She had said before that she would obey the arrangements and actively cooperate. She just threw all the troublesome things that required thinking back to Li Nian and the others to do, and showed an attitude of "I am just a tool", and only intended to listen to Li Nian's instructions and do whatever she was told to do.

Looking at the group chat on Line, An Yi and his group are also on the way. They want to see a good show that is rarely seen on weekdays, so let them watch it. Li Nian can understand their desire to satisfy their eyes - although Li Nian does not expect that the fight between him and Isayama will be a passionate show.

In other words, basically we have to wait for everyone to gather before we can start to advance various matters - but that won't take too long, Ren and Misaki should wake up soon, Amaki and others should be here soon, and Li Nian himself needs to make advance preparations. He needs to prepare a lot of things, including venues, props, and small designs to help the spectators better see the overall situation and protect the lives of the participants in the battle, etc. If he wants to achieve good results in all aspects, it is difficult for him to do so.

Of course, he didn't need help from others to prepare. Li Nian planned to do it right away, so it didn't matter if others took a rest for a while.

Thinking of this, Li Nian only planned to talk to Kasumigaoka about her health issues before leaving.

So Li Nian spoke up and said, "Senior Kasumigaoka, there is something I need to tell you. You kept screaming last night and it really made me suffer."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Xia Zhiqiu didn't expect Li Nian to dare to tease her. She was not at all embarrassed: "Oh, I'm so sorry. Why, even if you hear your sister's panting, you can't suppress the anger of a teenager?"

"Yeah, I'm really mad."

Qingshan told himself that these two people were joking again and didn't mean that.

Isayama knew Kasumigaoka's personality to some extent, but he also had a strange expression on his face and asked, "Did Kasumigaoka spend the night in Li Nian's room last night?"

"Yes, he was very enthusiastic last night."

Qingshan explained unhappily: "I just enthusiastically covered you with the blanket a few times. Senior Isayama, don't listen to these two people's nonsense. They teased me like this before."

"...Of course I know what kind of personalities these two guys have." Isayama shrugged, realizing that Kasumigaoka probably just slept in Li Nian's room like himself, and the latter would not do anything to her because she, Isayama, had never been done anything to either... Although he understood, he did have a weird feeling in his heart as to what was going on.

Li Nian continued, "I'm really angry - in the literal sense. I covered you with a blanket several times, which made me sleep poorly. You kicked the blanket off in this weather. Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

"...I'm sorry." Hearing that Li Nian didn't sleep well and that he had really troubled her, Kasumigaoka felt a little guilty. He stopped joking and apologized honestly: "I don't sleep well. In fact, I sleep very lightly. I felt it several times when you covered me with a blanket. I always woke up in the middle of the night and didn't sleep well, right? Thank you for your trouble."

"I don't think it's a hassle to cover you with the quilt several times. I just want to tell you, senior, that you should pay attention to your health. The way you sleep shows that you have a big hidden danger. It just so happens that Isayama is here. She also sleeps badly. Her saliva can wet my pillow."

"Ahhhh! Stop it!" Isayama blushed. Her dark history was inexplicably revealed, making her complain: "Why are you mentioning me here?"

"I mean, even though your sleeping posture is so bad, you sleep very deeply, like a dead pig."

"...This doesn't seem like a compliment to me." Jianshan looked at Li Nian suspiciously: "Do you just want to scold me? I just broke your pillow, why are you thinking about it so much?"

"I'm complimenting you. Being able to eat and sleep well means you're in good health."

"...I'll take it as a compliment."

"Senior sister is different. She tossed and turned five or six times a night. She slept lightly and uncomfortably. When she woke up today, she felt like she wasn't fully refreshed, right?"

Kasumigaoka thought for a moment, then replied, "...That's right."

"You have to pay attention. It must be caused by your irregular work and rest schedule. Over time, it will become a serious illness. I have told you this before. Now that you have this symptom, I am not kidding you."

Li Nian became serious, his expression solemn, his cold eyes had a different sense of oppression. He rarely put on such an expression, but once he did, it meant that he was extremely serious about the matter. Kasumigaoka shrank his neck and responded weakly, "Yes, I'll pay attention."

"You really have to be careful, senior." Qingshan once fell down in front of everyone, which almost ruined his exam the next day, so he spoke up for Li Nian.

"The feeling of your body collapsing is very uncomfortable. I've experienced it so I know it's a precursor to death." Li Nian added, mentioning scary words without hesitation, which really scared Kasumigaoka.

"I'll be careful, I'll be careful, please don't scare me, it's really scary when you say that."

"You, your body collapsed?" Jian Shan cast a puzzled look. Being beaten to pieces, his body was incomplete. According to common sense, it could be called a half-dead state. But Li Nian could continue to fight and even recover. How could such a monster collapse? She didn't believe it.

"...My [health] is recent and not normal."

"Yes, it's the influence of the spiritual disaster." Isayama was tired of Li Nian's excuses to explain the source of his power.

Li Nian continued to say to Senior Sister Kasumigaoka: "When you feel unwell, you can come to me. I can help you regulate your breathing - use spiritual power to directly adjust the state of the human body." After thinking for a while, he added: "I also have the skill of massage."

Kasumigaoka's eyes lit up and she was really interested. She was aware of her physical problems to a certain extent. Years of typing at a desk caused her to have some body aches... Also, because of the weight on her chest, the girl often felt uncomfortable, especially in the shoulders, which had been getting worse recently. When she heard that Li Nian could give massages, she was really interested. She felt that if this was the person, she must be an expert in it.

"Okay, I really want to try out your massage skills, Li Nian... I can take this opportunity to touch you all over and make me gasp for air, hehe."

Li Nian sneered maliciously. There are always idiots in the world who have some misunderstandings about massage. "Don't worry, I think your body is very stiff, I will give you a good massage. I think you won't be able to hold it back when I start, you must scream in pleasure."

But Li Nian was not sure whether it was a delicate gasp or a painful wail.

Xia Zhiqiu didn't realize why Li Nian sneered. At this moment, she was full of expectations for Li Nian's massage. She was really daydreaming, wondering if Li Nian really wanted to use this as an excuse to do something to her...

Qingshan crossed his hands in front of his chest, made an "x" gesture, and said in dissatisfaction: "Everyone, watch your words!"

Isayama had no doubts about that. Li Nian had said before that she had given Suzuka a massage and the latter seemed to like it. At this time, she casually mentioned: "Give me a massage too?"

"Sure." Li Nian said with emotion: "Master Li's massage shop is becoming more and more popular. If I don't work as an exorcist in the future, it would be nice to open a massage shop."

"I want to open a membership card and only ask Master Li to serve me." said Kasumigaoka.

"Remember to give me a discount." Isayama said with a smile.

While everyone was chatting without restraint, they could hear a bang bang bang sound coming from upstairs. Li Nian knew that it was Senior Misaki who had woken up. After she woke up, Senior Ren would be woken up by the door being broken down, and then the whole Sakurasou would wake up in a commotion.

"Remember to take care of your health." Li Nian stood up, emphasized this to Kasumigaoka, and then said, "I'll make preparations first."

Kasumigaoka and Aoyama didn't know what he was going to do, but they still asked if he needed help. Of course, they were rejected.

Isayama didn't even mention helping. Although Sakurasou didn't have facilities like a dojo, Isayama knew that Li Nian had a "sealing" barrier technique that was so exaggerated that it could frame an area of ​​several kilometers in radius and "copy" an identical space, except that it lost color and changes. Apart from these, this person must have various other means, so she was not worried about whether Li Nian could prepare a venue for sparring.

Li Nian came to the courtyard of Sakurasou alone, and just as Isayama had thought, he first performed the sealing technique, defining an area the size of a playground with this place as the center, capturing himself and exiling himself to another gray world.

Then he began to hum a little tune while writing and drawing runes and magic arrays all over the area. From time to time, a special thing would appear, such as a red flag, a diamond cone, or simply a tree, and stick it in a specific position with a click. These were the various array eyes that symbolized the five elements, and would guide the flow of spiritual energy in the runes and magic arrays. In the process of forming spiritual veins, they would become nodes that could help to sort out and transform spiritual energy.

To put it simply, everything Li Nian was doing at the moment was actually just to control the flow of spiritual energy in the entire space.

In terms of scale, this is indeed a huge project, but with these array eyes, the most troublesome problem has been solved. Li Nian's mind only needs to connect with a few array eyes and perform subtle operations on them, and he can further control all the spiritual power flowing in the entire magic circle.

Generally speaking, the most difficult things to prepare are these small things that can be used to attract attention. In fact, they are spiritual weapons that grow in special environments or are made of special materials. They are of the same nature as spiritual swords. But for Li Nian, who has the "arsenal" template and can completely replicate them, preparing these things is certainly not a difficult task.

Although Li Nian could also simply use the magic circle to temporarily write a similar spell as a node...but efficiency is king.

After Li Nian had used spiritual energy to write and draw the finalized spells in every place in the entire area and placed all the array points, he clapped his hands to disperse the spiritual energy that condensed into a pen at his fingertips, and then his figure flashed back to the cherry tree, returning to the center of this space.

Then he snapped his fingers.

With this as a signal, the rituals prepared in advance were fully activated. The magic arrays and runes written and drawn everywhere in this space lit up and conducted light to each other, connecting with each other with several array eyes as the core. From the sky, a huge, complex, but strict pattern filling the space was quickly taking shape.

At the same time, the scattered spiritual energy in the space was fully absorbed by the magic array distributed on all sides, and then pushed, restrained, and condensed into a torrent. From no rules, it began to flow violently in the magic array in an orderly manner. According to the rules of the five elements, it was transformed when flowing through each array eye, forming a stable cycle and turning into a flowing light stream visible to the naked eye in the space.

Li Nian only established a direct and solid connection with a few array centers, and he felt that he had become the center of this world, able to manipulate the enormous power flowing in the entire space.

Enjoying the feeling of power filling his whole body, Li Nian thought about the entire process of forming the magic circle used to manipulate power. Looking at the essence, the key point is to start from small to large, layer by layer. He couldn't help but sigh.

"This is the power of science... no, metaphysics."

Chapter 391: Sealing off the Tourist Group

Successfully controlling all the spiritual energy in the entire area and gathering such a huge force is only equivalent to collecting enough raw materials, and only then can the preparations begin.

Under the cherry tree, Li Nian sat cross-legged with her eyes closed.

First, he thought about the content of the animated short film production.

This had already been agreed upon with Misaki and Jin in advance, and the content of the production had been decided to be the initial battle of the demon king's rebellion against his god.

……

……

He rises up again to conquer at the command of the devil, launching a second all-out war against the other world - Earth, recreating the scene of the advent of the devil.

But the king was unwilling.

He did not understand and felt that they did not have much chance of winning. He believed that the result would be a lose-lose situation and that the situation would turn into a meat grinder that harvested countless lives. In the end, no matter which side won, it would only be a stupid victory of tragedy. He did not know why such a useless war was launched at this time, so he asked back and received a straightforward answer from God.

"I like war, that's all."

Therefore, at this moment, Wang confirmed how incorrigible the so-called God of War was, and understood that there was no reason for him to continue to compromise with such a guy.

The king wants to lead the world to prosperity, but as long as there is a god above him, all his efforts so far will be exploited and subverted by her, and he will never be able to achieve the future he wants.

So the king finally became convinced that only by removing this problem could the world have a future.

As an experiment, the king attacked his god without hesitation. If he killed her, he could stop so many meaningless sacrifices here.

Then of course he lost.

The power of an individual cannot defeat the collective thoughts of all living beings. The God of War has unified the entire world with his help and has become the spiritual sustenance of everyone. Faith is gathered in her, making her even more powerful than during the last total war.

Although the king was defeated, he realized the source of God's power and understood the possibility of defeating her, so he opened the gate of heaven and escaped to the hostile world.

Before disappearing through the door, Wang uttered these harsh words.

"I will destroy you."

The God of War smiled happily and was looking forward to it.

"Then I'll wait and see."

……

……

What Li Nian wanted was to reproduce in reality as much as possible the scene that originally existed only in his mind.
