My Adventure Diary of Reincarnating as a Bad Woman

As for the reason for not signing the phantom demon, it was because he felt that the phantom demon would rebel sooner or later, and he was too lazy to spend time on her.

If you think about it carefully, this is totally wrong.

At least the phantom demon can provide me with a few days of experience.

Noita learned her lesson and decided not to waste time like this again.

After reflecting on this, Noita continued to determine the location within the Swan Land that would be suitable as a node for the resonance ritual.

Time passed quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye. At noon one day, Miaoyin Bird found Noita in a mine.

Miaoyin Bird hung up the oil lamp and said helplessly, "Why are you here? It took me a while to find you."

Noita wiped the dust off his face and said softly, "I recently surveyed the general terrain and determined the direction and nodes of the ley lines. Now I'm here for a field survey. What's going on?"

The resonance ceremony requires the power of the earth's veins, and earth vein surveying is a rigorous job that requires both a broad perspective and an understanding of the overall situation, as well as meticulous attention to detail to confirm the impact of even the smallest things.

In any case, field trips are indispensable, and only through practice can one increase proficiency and apply knowledge more quickly.

Miaoyin Bird stated the purpose of searching for Noita: "The reset is about to begin. This is the first time you've encountered this. Don't be too surprised if you encounter strange things next time."

"I remember." Noita nodded.

The Saraswati left without disturbing Noita's work.

Watching the bird fly away, Noita closed his eyes, pressed his face against the cave wall, and felt the wonderful movement of the earth veins with his whole body and mind.

Legend has it that when Typhon fell to Earth from the hand of the Struggling Sky, the sheer force of his fall cracked the earth, boiling the oceans, and causing continental plates to wail in agony day and night. Dust obscured the sun, and the waves surged incessantly. For countless days, all living things—on earth, in the sky, in the sea—were unable to see the sun.

There is no light in the sky, and a dark age is coming.

Due to the lack of solar radiation, many creatures became extinct and creatures were worried about the loss of important energy.

Then the underground residents accidentally discovered a new energy source - the earth veins.

Leylines grew outward from the spot where Typhon fell, spreading beneath the surface like roots into the invisible distance. These leylines brought new energy, and creatures began to adapt to them, harnessing their power for development.

During the long-term research, the creatures discovered that the earth veins evolved from Typhon's body, and flowing in the earth veins is the power of Typhon and the earth.

The shape of the earth veins is the prototype of the formation.

Anyone who studies the terrain and natural rituals along the Stone Path inevitably comes into contact with the power of the earth veins.

[You sense the power of the earth veins and gain some understanding. The resonance of the path of stone increases↑]

Noita opened her eyes hazily and felt that everything in front of her was melting and fading. All the colors were like a painting splashed with hot water. All the delicate and gorgeous looks were fading away and turning into a turbid color.

Noita rubbed her eyes and found that there was nothing wrong with her vision.

She thought about it for a while before she remembered that this was the moment of reset.

At the reset, everything loses its color, memories fade, and all the soul possesses is what it holds in its hands.

Noita looked around.

At this moment, there is no distinction between high and low, everyone is on the same level. Except for the lost people and the things within half a meter around them, everything is integrated into the color.

Oh, something was missing. The operating stabilization device supported a space of moderate size, but all the living things in it disappeared, leaving only the empty tavern as it was.

"How is it? Seeing this scene for the first time, you must be shocked." The pupils of the beautiful bird, which were carved with crosshairs, were full of smiles. She opened her arms and ran freely in the muddy field, like children chasing and playing in the wheat field.

Noita had accidentally seen the secret realm reset several times in the game, but this time she still nodded in surprise, as if she was seeing this scene for the first time.

A few seconds later, the bird landed beside her, sat on the colors, hugged its knees, and stared at the world quietly.

Noita looked at the others who were treasured their luggage, carefully protecting the precious gold and luxury goods and not daring to move a step, and then looked at the free and easy appearance of the man who had nothing but a set of clothes, and felt a little confused.

"Don't you have anything you want to save until next month?"

"Of course." Miaoyin Bird pulled out two exquisite white pistols and a box of bullets.

"I have the Silver Heart and the Broken Bone, and that's all I need. The Silver Heart is a pistol I spent three months making here based on the experimental blueprints in the workshop. The Broken Bone is the trophy Paro lost to me. He tearfully begged for mercy, saying he was still young and hadn't done anything bad. He even said if I did anything truly heinous, I could kill him. It was hilarious."

Miaoyin Bird's wealth consists of these two guns and bullets. As for Noita, her wealth is all in the Gate City and the Dimension Bag.

Noita smiled lightly, took out two bottles of mead from the gate city, and shared one bottle with Miaoyin Bird.

When drunk, the bird pointed at the colors below and said with a smile: "A friend of mine said that these turbid colors are the tears of the secret realm. They are as turbid and bitter as tears. I don't think so. If they are the tears of the secret realm, then why does the secret realm shed tears again and again? Isn't it just asking for trouble?"

Noita shook the bottle gently, and the lavender mead was finished by her.

She threw the bottle casually, and it turned into tears in the air.

The young drinker, who had just finished drinking a bottle of honey wine and then took out another from the gate, lazily said, "Perhaps the secret realm can't help but recall the past. It misses the past too much and forgets the pain in its memory. After being stabbed, it can't help but cry..."

Before she finished speaking, the bird of joy suddenly turned her head. She stared at Noita's pretty face for a long time before she burst into laughter, with the aroma of mead coming out of her mouth.

"You look a bit like my friend."

Miaoyin Bird laughed and threw away the empty wine bottle, took out the contract from its pocket and wanted to sign its name.

However, she searched all over her body but couldn't find a pen, so she simply pulled out a hair, burned it to ashes, and pressed it on the contract.

That's it.

【The Wonderful Bird becomes your follower.】

Chapter 167 Installation Completed

【Miaoyin Bird】

[Occupation: Level 17 Mountain Hunter]

[Skills: Death Shot, Critical Shot, Rapid Shot, Precision Shot, Reloading Expert...]

[Items: Silver Heart, Bone Breaker, Spell Bullet]

[Skill: Death Shot: Consume the power of the Path to select an enemy. You will understand their weaknesses and know how to inflict the greatest damage. Following the law of cause and effect, you will determine the enemy's fateful death.]

This person submits to you. Miaoyin Bird is a hunter born in the city, an experienced gunslinger who has honed his skills for years. He has already trained his gun on an enemy. The bullet is fired, and the enemy is dead.

A second-level professional can provide Noita with 80 to 120 experience points every day. Although it is still a drizzle, there are quite a few professionals in the secret realm. Whether by coaxing or coercing, they can always become resources for Noita's promotion.

Noita, who had signed a follower, was in a good mood. She took out a few glasses of wine from the gate city and gave them to Miaoyin Bird, letting her drink to her heart's content.

Second-level professionals have a high resistance to alcohol, and mead is not a strong liquor, so no matter how much they drink, they will not get drunk.

As the smell of the wine grew stronger, the reshaping of the secret realm underwent new changes.

The mixed colors gradually separated, and from the indescribable turbid state, the black of the earth, the white of the rocks, the lush green, the gold of wealth... All kinds of colors spread in all directions, covering the boundless void, and then transformed into all things in the world.

The void was painted over, as if the wonderful evolution of the painting world was recorded by Noita and became an unforgettable landscape.

She seemed to understand something, but when she thought about it carefully, she found that she had not understood anything.

It's just an illusion.

The log was calm, just silently recording this rare scene in the whole of Gaia.

After a moment, the secret realm was reshaped, and the tears belonging to the secret realm reconstructed its memories.

With a smell of alcohol on his body, Miaoyinniao stood up swiftly and took down a gang in broad daylight, earning his first pot of gold under the awe-inspiring gazes of the gang members.

Afterwards, Myoko went to her tavern.

At this time, this tavern did not belong to Miaoyin Bird, but under her financial offensive, the elf who was originally the manager quickly surrendered and transferred the tavern to Miaoyin Bird. He was willing to be hired as a waiter with a high salary, and his work was the same as before, just running errands for Miaoyin Bird.

At night, Miaoyin Bird enjoyed dinner at the Swan Lord's castle and became the lord's new spearmanship teacher.

In just one day, Miaoyinniao solved the problem. The process was smooth and without any delay, which showed that it had been repeated many times.

Noita went to observe the others and found that the Muses and the others had just as skillfully handled most of the problems on the first day and had found a place to stay.

It seems that only Noita has not solved the problem of food and accommodation.

But this is just a small problem. There are many hotels and taverns here that provide food and accommodation, so Noita will not have to sleep in the open air. At worst, there is still the Sweet Bird Tavern where he can stay for a night.

After finding a random hotel to sleep for the night, Noita continued his unfinished survey work the next morning and returned to the tavern to rest late at night.

From then on, she searched for the earth veins on time every day, ate four meals a day without fail, and never lacked time for rest and entertainment.

After a month and a half of repeating this process, Noita finally completed the preliminary preparations and determined all the geomagnetic nodes that needed to be arranged.

She came to the tavern, greeted a few familiar drinkers, sat at the table, bought a bottle of wine from the elf, and passed the time with potato cubes and dried meat.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion and turned around to see that Paro and the other two had a conflict and a fight over cheating while playing cards, and the silver coins on the table were scattered all over the floor.

Ah, is it that time yet?

Noita looked at the three people fighting fiercely with some sigh. This was the scene she encountered when she first came to this secret place.

This is the second time I've seen it - this time last month, Noita was still surveying the ley lines in the dense forest.

Paro was punched in the eye and immediately saw stars. He angrily pulled out his gun and pointed it at the guy who punched him. In a chain reaction, the other two gunmen also pulled out their guns and pointed them at each other.

At this point, both guns were pointed at Paro, causing him to wink in embarrassment and pull out another pistol, pointing it at the two men.

All four guns were pointed at people, and the drunken spectators cheered and told them to shoot.

Noita raised his eyebrows. Thinking about how the Miaoyin Bird would be shot down by a gun after firing three shots, and their tragic experience afterwards, Noita shook his head helplessly and took out the screwdriver he carried with him to open the cork.

With a "bang", the cork was pulled out, and a bullet flew past her hair and shot a patron who was watching the show.

Eh?

Noita looked up belatedly and saw three musketeers firing indiscriminately, turning the tavern into a gunfight scene.

The other drinkers were equally unwilling to be outdone. They kicked over the table under the influence of alcohol and joined the gunfight.

People who were not drunk also shot because others shot.

In an instant, smoke rose up and the bird of joy disappeared.

Where is the wonderful bird?

Help, help!

Noita looked around but did not see the figure of the Wonderful Bird.

A bullet hit Noita's forehead. Although it didn't even scratch her skin, it made her very dissatisfied.

She knocked over the fool who dared to shoot at her with a bottle of wine, and then Noita picked up a stool leg and hit everyone in the tavern, making them see stars.

A minute later, the bar was filled with wailing, and none of the guys involved in the gunfight could escape.

Noita threw away the stick and pulled out the elf who was hiding in the bar watching the show.

She demanded, "Where's your boss?"

"The boss went out to play today. He said if you come, everything is up to you. If you don't come, everything is up to me."

Noita rubbed her brows, not understanding where the beautiful bird could go to play, but the current problem did need to be solved.

After taking all the money from the three Musketeers, Noita kicked them out of the tavern.

At the door of the tavern, three unlucky guys looked at each other, shivering in the cold wind in their shirts, regretting their actions.

Noita glanced at the other injured and asked the elf to find a solution: "Bandage the ones who are still alive, and let the dead... die. You can deal with them as you see fit. Remember to clean up."

After giving the order, Noita went up to the second floor.

As expected, there was no trace of the Myoko bird on the second floor, but the stability maintenance device was working slowly.

In the past, the stability device maintained some of the taverns, but when it was reset, because the changes were not significant, the two taverns overlapped instead of causing the taverns to collide and collapse.

Noita came to the stabilization device and made some adjustments according to the manual to increase its power and expand its coverage area so that it could completely cover the tavern.

Later, Noita took out the small signal base that was finally delivered from the Gate City and placed it in place.

After a little debugging, the message of being able to cross the secret realm was sent outside the secret realm. If there were explorers from the Adventurer's Association who were also lost in the depths of the dream, they would be able to capture this signal through the devices they carried with them and move closer to this place.

After installing the signal base, Noita stretched lazily, feeling that he had solved another problem.

very nice.

[Mirror Heaven Path Resonance Increased↑]

Chapter 168: During the Ceremony

The increase in the resonance of the Dao made Noita look sideways. What did she do to touch the Jingtian Dao?

Counting on her fingers, she recalled that the news was updated in her diary when she was finishing many trivial matters and exclaiming "how great".

Including the time in the secret realm, she had been in Gaia for four months. These four months had been full of ups and downs. Although she had been fighting most of the time, she had not fallen behind in her relaxing daily life. The regular life in the secret realm for more than a month had finally touched upon the Tao, causing it to react.
