As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.
Chapter 223 System Awakens
Just a little while earlier, the instant Sirin touched the mysterious crystal, an indescribable power suddenly erupted, swiftly and forcefully expelling Chen Yuan from Sirin's body.
Dust and Fate flew through the air like a kite with a broken string, then crashed heavily to the ground, turning into a lifeless puddle of stagnant water that lay there limply.
"What the heck? What's going on?" Chen Yuan, who had been forcefully ejected from his body, stared in astonishment at the strangely glowing crystal before him. "Seriously? I just wanted to see what powers were hidden inside, is this some kind of overreaction?!"
At this moment, Benares, standing behind Chen Yuan, noticed the situation and tilted his huge head slightly with great intelligence, his copper bell-like eyes curiously watching Chen Yuan.
Then, with a deep roar, Benares slowly moved its massive body, cautiously approaching Chenyuan, and finally stopping beside him. It then gently lowered its head and nuzzled Chenyuan's body.
Benares's affectionate gesture provided Chenyuan with an excellent opportunity to parasitize. In the blink of an eye, Chenyuan swiftly extended two symbiotic organisms and burrowed into Benares's body.
In an instant, the mortal world, which had been as still and lifeless as a stagnant pool, was restored to the appearance of a lively little person.
However, despite successfully parasitizing it, Chen Yuan still felt helpless in the face of this mysterious and unpredictable crystal.
After all, faced with an object completely beyond his comprehension, he had no idea what to do next. It was essentially a blind spot in his knowledge.
【Hmm... Hmm! Hello, host, it's been a long time~】 Just as Chen Yuan stood there, not knowing what to do, a familiar and lazy voice suddenly rang in his mind.
In that instant, Chen Yuan's previously dull eyes seemed to be ignited, instantly brightening up. "Hey, you! You're finally awake! I was wondering if I'd have to wait until the end of the world to hear your voice again."
"Tell me, what have you been doing all this time? I've never seen such a lazy system before!"
Chen Yuan responded mentally to this suddenly appearing fellow with annoyance, while also seizing the opportunity to press for the important matter at hand.
"Alright, enough nonsense. I don't have time to waste with you now. Quickly help me figure out what's going on."
"Oh well, there's nothing I can do about it. They're just making preparations for the future." The system clearly didn't care about Chen Yuan's complaints and even yawned widely.
However, I can't keep Chen Yuan in suspense any longer, so I continued, "[Let this system take a look first... Hmm, I see. So you were kicked out of the group chat. It seems 'it' holds a grudge."]
"Huh? What kind of thing holds a grudge?" Chen Yuan was slightly taken aback when he heard the system's words, but he quickly put the question aside and anxiously asked again.
"Forget all that, just tell me if there's any way to get me in there? Sirin's still inside, I'm afraid something terrible might happen!"
"Don't worry, it's just getting in, right? Don't fret, I have plenty of ways!" the system said confidently. Just as it finished speaking, an astonishing scene unfolded.
Suddenly, dazzling purple light began to emanate from around Chen Yuan's body. These light spots, like twinkling stars in the night sky, danced around Chen Yuan.
As more and more white light spots gathered, they gradually coalesced and eventually formed a blurry figure of a girl.
Although he couldn't see her face clearly, for some reason, Chen Yuan felt a sense of déjà vu.
However, he quickly put this small doubt behind him. After all, he had been with the system for a long time, so it was probably inevitable that he would have such a misconception.
"All I need to do is get you to Sirin's side, right?" The girl, formed from white light, asked.
After receiving Chen Yuan's affirmative reply, she gently extended a slender, fair hand and slowly placed it on the crystal that emitted a strange light.
In an instant, the previously calm surface of the crystal suddenly rippled with pale blue light, and then a bright, circular opening quietly appeared on the crystal.
Alright, going in from here will take you directly to Sirin's location. Also, since I'm your system, I naturally need to grant you powerful means to confront 'gods' head-on.
After saying that, she slightly raised her hand, and a dazzling purple light instantly flew out from her palm and merged into Chen Yuan's body with lightning speed.
If I'm not mistaken, the power displayed by 'God' at this moment is probably only one-thousandth of its original strength, and may not even reach that level!
[But even with all that, you probably wouldn't be a match for it, after all, you're not on the same level as a 'god' right now.]
However, thankfully I'm here. With my help, you'll be like a fish in water, able to do whatever you want!
"Thank you so much!" Looking at the scene before him, Chen Yuan's lips involuntarily curled into a smile. He first gently shook his neck to loosen his muscles.
Without hesitation, she leaped into the hole. At the same time, the girl's illusory figure, which had been silently floating in the air, gradually thinned like smoke and eventually vanished into nothingness.
--------
"It's very simple, because I possess power you can't even imagine." Time rewinds to the present, and upon hearing the question from "God" Nachong, Chen Yuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a nonchalant smile.
Then he slowly extended his right hand, gently stroking his well-defined chin, and stared at the being before him with a strange look.
"Logically speaking, I should feel fear upon first meeting someone like you, but I feel no nervousness whatsoever when I face you."
Dust and fate's words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
[...] Faced with Chen Yuan's unexpected words, the "god" fell into a rare silence. For a moment, it did not know how to respond to Chen Yuan's question.
Recalling the moment when Sirin was born, a strange memory suddenly flooded into its mind—a memory it couldn't bear to look back on, a memory that was utterly terrible!
In that memory, there was an incomparably powerful figure and a strangely shaped black greatsword. It was precisely because of this that "God" tried every means to prevent Chen Yuan from entering this space with Xi Lin.
Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly jumped in again, like a flea.
"Well... it doesn't really matter." Chen Yuan yawned lazily, looking at the silent 'god' in front of him with indifference.
He casually stretched his body, and with this movement, countless tentacle-like symbiotes suddenly emerged from his back. The symbiotes quickly twisted and deformed, transforming in the blink of an eye into several weapons of various shapes.
"In any case, your power will eventually be handed over to Sirin. As for how to hand it over, that's up to you to decide."
"Do you want me to forcibly take it from you, or will you obediently give us the power directly?"
Upon hearing this, 'God' couldn't help but sneer: [Hmph, what a boastful boast!] With its angry roar, a powerful and suffocating energy wave suddenly erupted from its body.
This energy swept across the surroundings like a raging torrent, causing the entire space to tremble violently as if it couldn't withstand the immense pressure. [I can sense that you don't possess that power right now.]
However, faced with this astonishing scene, Chen Yuan remained calm, not even lifting his eyelids. "Well, who knows?"
Immediately afterwards, two soft hissing sounds were heard, and his arms also changed—in the blink of an eye, they transformed into two giant, jet-black blades that emitted a cold, eerie light.
"Don't underestimate me," Chen Yuan said in his usual relaxed tone, while a flash of cold light appeared on the giant blade in his hand.
Just then, Chen Yuan's figure suddenly flickered and vanished from the spot in an instant. The next moment, he had already appeared silently behind 'God' like a ghost.
Almost simultaneously, he crossed his arms and suddenly swung them out, and two black sword shadows, each several meters long, shot out with lightning speed, stabbing straight at 'God'.
The "god" stood motionless, like a mountain, without even moving. A dazzling golden shield suddenly appeared around him.
In an instant, the attacks, which came like a storm, slammed into the golden shield, but failed to budge it in the slightest. A dull thud resounded, and the two forces separated immediately after the initial contact.
"Your power has increased significantly." Sensing the clash of powers, "God" was quite surprised. Compared to his past self, he had shown a marked improvement.
On the other hand, Chen Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile. "I'm really sorry, but I'm determined to take your power today!"
[Hmph, then let you try, you mere... insignificant human!] When the "god" uttered these words, the surrounding air seemed to freeze instantly, and time itself seemed to stand still.
Immediately afterwards, the "god" slowly extended a palm, and a dazzling ball of light gradually appeared in the palm.
The light emanating from this sphere was like the brightest star in the night sky. At the same time, along with the appearance of the sphere, an immense and unparalleled pressure surged from all directions, like a raging storm, sweeping towards Chen Yuan.
However, despite such terrifying pressure, Chen Yuan's eyes remained completely unmoved. He simply chuckled and shook his head, a mocking smirk still playing on his lips.
