Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Zhang Qiling met the expectant gazes of the crowd and calmly summarized his speech in one sentence.

"I took a nap, chatted with my mother for a while, and then woke up."

Everyone:? ? ? ? ?

That's it? ? ? ?

Zhang Qiling: That's it. (Nods firmly.)

Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to the illusionist still hidden among the vines, pretending to be a plant creator as well.

You're still playing the differential treatment game?!

Fragments of origin bearing the shell of a Qilin: ...

I'm not taking the blame for this. I had just built a model when I was kicked out by a white light. It's not that I treated them differently.

Wu Xie and Fatty Wang exchanged a glance. So the three of them were just playing around in an illusion?

So those two are really seriously playing through the dungeon, right...?

Faced with the murderous gazes of the crowd, the Origin Fragment instinctively retreated, wishing that the vines binding it would simply wrap it up.

Having suffered a severe blow upon its debut, and with its painstakingly crafted body nearly destroyed, it had absolutely no confidence when facing these people.

Ultimately, it is merely a fragment that has splintered from the bizarre origin that invaded this world.

From the moment this suitable body was found, most of the remaining energy was used to modify the body.

It was also because it was too greedy. Relying on the fact that the world's consciousness was restrained by the original body and there was nothing in this world that could suppress it, it recklessly squandered its energy, wanting to use the corpse with the bloodline of the Qilin to transform itself into a perfect Qilin body.

To my utter surprise, there was indeed nothing in this world that could suppress it, but... why did it need outside help?

"I... I can make it up to you!!!"

Seeing the Qilin-like creature covered in dark scales, yet appearing weak and helpless in front of them, the fragment of origin was an insult to the legendary image of the Qilin.

"How will you compensate us? Tell us."

Black Bear was quite interested in the compensation this little thing was talking about, and said, "Please begin your performance."

"Immortality! Isn't this what you humans have always been pursuing? I... I can give it to you!!!"

amount……

Immortality...

"Not enough." Black Bear stroked his chin, looking at the fragment of origin with an interest that wasn't much, as if there wasn't much left.

Completely unaware that Hei Xiazi was fooling him, the fragment of origin moved its body, which was bound by vines, and cursed the guy's greed in its heart.

"Besides immortality, I will also bestow upon you wealth, gold, silver, jewels, jade, and antiques."

Seeing that the others remained silent, only giving it a "go ahead" look, it could only continue to tempt them.

"You...you want power, status, and unparalleled beauty?"

"Tsk...too small, too narrow-minded."

Black Bear was criticizing the little thing, saying it was so petty and worthless when it came to tempting people.

"With a broader perspective, our goal is—world peace!!!"

Original Fragment: ...

Onlookers: ...

You'd better have something to do? 2?7–_–?2?7

"How about it? Can you do it?" Black Bear grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and looked at the other person with great anticipation.

The original fragments are well-versed in the art of empty promises. The most important thing now is to get out of trouble. No matter how outrageous or insane the demands are, they'll just agree to them first.

"Yes, of course."

Although he lacked confidence, he answered with absolute certainty.

Su Li took out a bag of cream-flavored sunflower seeds and distributed a handful to each of her friends, who ate them while watching the fun.

Hei Xiazi took one as well, and with a long leg bent, sat down on the futon behind him.

"Please begin your performance."

Origin Fragment: ? ? ? ? ?

"What's wrong?"

"What are you performing?" The Origin Fragment was bewildered, wondering if he had missed something and how the topic had jumped to this.

"You can't really do anything about world peace, can you?"

Black Bear sat there with an air of nonchalance, cracking sunflower seeds, his gaze lingering maliciously on the rear half of the Qilin corpse.

Fatty Wang: Is your "no good" a serious matter?

Wuxie: Seems a bit frivolous.

Su Li: I don't quite understand, let me take another look. ●)o(●

Xie Yuchen & Zhang Qiling: ...

"Um...would you believe me if I said the world is at peace now?"

Talking to this person makes me feel like my brain isn't working properly! Why are there such unpredictable human reactions?!

"What do you say?"

Well, even it doesn't believe it...

"We can discuss it..."

"Please begin your speech..."

Original Fragment: ...

"Just kill me..." The Origin Fragment simply gave up...

I'm not even trying to fool anyone anymore. Who can these lunatics possibly fool...?

"Tsk... Your fighting ability is no good..."

In response to Hei Xiazi's taunts, the dormant Origin Fragment simply lay down, closed its eyes, and said, "Whatever happens, happens..."

This little piece of junk is so useless and not fun at all.

But killing it or something...

Just kidding, how could that be?!

What did Ali just say this thing was worth?

A full five million!

Big business!!!

But before that...

'Shua...'

The gleaming black dagger was drawn, and Hei Xiazi tossed the last melon seed into his mouth before standing up.

"Holy crap! Blind man, what are you doing???" Wu Xie grabbed Black Bear like an idiot. Was this guy really going to stab this five millionaire to death?

Hei Xiazi freed one hand and placed it on Wu Xie's head.

"Even if this little thing is fake, it still looks like a Qilin. Qilin blood, Qilin meat, Qilin scales—if we put it at an auction, they'd go crazy!!! Don't waste it~~"

The dormant fragment of origin suddenly opened its eyes, staring in disbelief at the black bear squatting in front of it...

This person...this person...

Woo woo woo X﹏X

This person is terrifying!!!

How brutal!!!

And he wasn't just bluffing; he really did it!

The sharp clanging of metal rang in my ears.

"Ouch!!! Stop! Stop! Stop!!! It hurts... Ouch..."

The half-hearted cries and struggles were silenced by a slap from Hei Xiazi, but his hand continued to move.

After Master Hei's efforts, a piece of seemingly very hard, dark-colored scale armor was pried off from that broad back.

Grinning as he watched Hei Xiazi manipulate Wu Xie, he looked at the half-palm-sized scales in front of him, then at the part that was clearly missing a piece.

"Huh? Why isn't there any blood?"

"It's a corpse."

Zhang Qiling reluctantly offered a reminder...

a ha ha ha……

This thing can run, jump, cause trouble, and even get angry. They've all forgotten that it was created using the corpses of their ancestors.

But wouldn't this ruin Hei Xiazi's plan to obtain the Qilin blood?
