Collapse Simulator: Raging at the Imaginary Tree

Yun Ling had nothing to do, so he took Ruoshui out.

"Although I don't know if Theresa can get Soul Steel, but let's make some preparations in advance. Ruoshui, do you have any preferences for your image?"

Yun Ling asked Ruoshui.

"As long as the master likes it."

Ruoshui's voice sounded in Yunling's mind.

"Okay, I'll design it. If you're not satisfied with anything, you can give me some suggestions."

Yun Ling nodded, picked up a piece of paper and began to draw the armed doll "Ruoshui" in his memory.

Rather than saying she is "Ruoshui", it would be better to say that she is a Q version of Cheng Lixue. However, this world has changed a lot. Did Fu Hua accept Cheng Lixue as her disciple?

He is not clear about this.

"Do you know Cheng Lixue?" Yun Ling asked.

"Well, I fell into a deep sleep after my master's death, and I woke up not long ago when I sensed his sword intent."

"Is that so... But the Xuanyuan Sword is really strange. It seems to have its own space inside its core, and all the sword spirits are stored in it waiting to be awakened." Yun Ling murmured.

The Xuanyuan Sword in Yun Ling's hand is the one used by the Sword God Yun Ling five hundred years ago. After Yun Ling's death, the sword remained with Li Sushang, and now it has returned to Yun Ling's hands.

But even if he changed to another Xuanyuan Sword, the awakened sword spirit would still be Ruoshui.

The Sword Spirit is not bound to the Xuan-Yuan Sword, but to its user.

Just like Fu Hua, no matter which Xuanyuan Sword she uses, it will turn into the "Grasp of the Void", unless she does not use the sword intent to resonate with the Xuanyuan Sword.

Soon, Ruoshui's appearance appeared on the paper.

How can an engineer not be able to draw? These skills are a byproduct of being a great mechanic.

Her light blue hair was combed neatly, her tender little face was a bit cold and aloof, she was wearing a black Taoist robe, and blue ice turned into small wings floating on both sides of her.

Sitting beneath her is Ruoshui's real body, and the azure blue hue perfectly matches the designed image of Ruoshui.

"Do you like it?" Yun Ling was quite satisfied with this image design.

"Yes, I like it. Thank you, Master."

Ruoshui's voice was obviously more joyful, and she was very satisfied with this image.

"I'm glad you like it. Besides the soul steel, you can also collect some other materials."

Yun Ling put the drawings away and prepared to find some time to go outside and look for it.

The materials needed to arm the puppets are quite precious. Apart from the most important soul steel, other materials are not easy to obtain.

I glanced at the time and it was already Friday. It seemed like I had a date with Ji Zi tomorrow?

Maybe I should think about how to guide Ji Zi to talk about her physical illness.

Today was a supplementary course, so naturally I was together with Bronya again.

Yun Ling kept his head down and did his own thing as usual. After a few classes, the teacher was no longer surprised.

Yun Ling’s level is very high, at least not inferior to hers, so the teacher let Yun Ling go, as long as it doesn’t affect other students.

Bronya's situation is not much different from Yun Ling's. The only difference is that Yun Ling is a little more outstanding than her.

Of course, this part will be made up by Bronya using hacking technology.

But Yun Ling made rapid progress. After each class, he basically mastered the content of that class.

As he had told Bronya before, he was a genius.

There is nothing wrong with this sentence at all.

With the red talent - the blessing of outstanding talent, Yun Ling was very fast in learning anything, so fast that even Bronya was amazed.

As soon as a knowledge point is taught once, you can apply it to other situations without being restricted by one thing or the textbook.

Bronya even felt that it wouldn't be long before her hacking skills would be surpassed by Yun Ling.

At that time, her dream of stepping on Yun Ling would be completely shattered.

This also caused Bronya to study a little more seriously, which was unusual. Especially in the mechanical engineering class, Yun Ling's creation or assembly techniques always allowed her to gain something.

In the medical aid class, Yun Ling finally heard a word he had been concerned about for a long time, "artificial stigmata"!

……

Chapter 223 The Last Stop

The Stigma Awakeners often have extremely good resistance to Honkai and very powerful strength. Before the appearance of the Valkyrie Armor, it was normally the Stigma Awakeners who took up the banner of fighting against Honkai.

After all, at that time, ordinary thermal weapons could only be used to eliminate some low-level Honkai beasts and dead soldiers. When facing Honkai Emperors or even Emperor-level Honkai beasts, thermal weapons could not even break through the defense.

This is when a Stigma Awakener is needed.

Not only are the Stigma Awakeners powerful, but most of them are also able to use the "Key of God" as a weapon.

"Your senior sister Wendy, who has already graduated, is actually also a stigma awakener." The teacher mentioned it briefly and then continued the lecture.

It can be traced back to the Kaslana family, one of the three great families of destiny, and the divine key "Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment" used by the Kaslana family heads for generations.

This is because the stigmata of the Kaslana family are very special. Every member of the Kaslana family can awaken the stigmata, but the degree of awakening varies.

However, surprisingly, even Kaslana, who has a very low level of awakening, has a resistance to Honkai far exceeding that of ordinary people. As long as she is trained, she can go to the battlefield.

Therefore, the people of the Kaslana family are natural warriors, which is why the Kaslana family is one of the three major families.

Although the stigmata are very powerful, there are very few people who are born with the stigmata awakened. It is no exaggeration to say that it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

In this world where collapses happen frequently, the number of awakened people with the Holy Mark that Destiny possesses is far from enough.

Thus, artificial stigmata were born.

After several years of research, artificial stigmata came into being. People who have been implanted with artificial stigmata can also possess extremely powerful strength.

However, the disadvantages of artificial stigmata are also very obvious. It will erode the body of the implanter. In simple terms, it requires consuming the body's lifespan to fight.

Not only that, those who have artificial stigmata implanted often have to endure excruciating pain. Whenever it occurs, even well-trained soldiers find it difficult to resist the pain.

This is why Ji Zi always drinks.

Alcohol could numb her nerves and help her avoid that difficult time.

"A Valkyrie implanted with artificial stigmata generally doesn't live past 35. Even if they retire from the front lines early, their bodies, eroded by the artificial stigmata, will still struggle to reach 40... I hope that Heaven's Will can find a solution soon."

There was a hint of sadness in the teacher's eyes. This method of overdrawing lifespan to fight against collapse was definitely not what she wanted to see.

But it turns out that this is the optimal solution at present.

If ordinary people want to become warriors against the Honkai and want to have the power to fight against the Honkai, artificial stigmata is the best choice.

Otherwise, she can only be a D-class chores Valkyrie or a C-class reconnaissance Valkyrie.

"Teacher, is there anyone among us who has implanted an artificial stigmata?" Yun Ling suddenly asked.

"...Your instructor is Colonel Jizi." The teacher hesitated for a moment, but still told him.

This is no secret in St. Freya Academy, and many teachers are well aware of it.

Moreover, although Ji Zi has reached the age to retire, she still sticks to this job and is still at the forefront of the fight against Honkai.

This is tantamount to playing with one's own life.

The teacher told Yun Ling that he actually hoped he could persuade Ji Zi.

"I understand. Thank you, teacher." Yun Ling nodded.

In this way, the prerequisites for guiding Ji Zi are already in place. Perhaps after a period of time, he can help Ji Zi remove the side effects of the artificial stigmata.

The next day, Yun Ling got up early in the morning, washed, and changed into some handsome clothes.

Today, he's going to play the perfect boyfriend!

However, this perfect boyfriend suffered a disastrous defeat right at the very beginning.

Ji Zi overslept again!

Yun Ling closed her eyes and thought for a moment. Sure enough, a perfect boyfriend needs a wake-up service, right?

So Yun Ling decisively pried open Ji Zi's door again. Facing Ji Zi, who was wearing clothes that were so cool that they were already very conservative, he walked up and patted Ji Zi's cheek.

"Jizi, it's time to get up. It's time for your date."

"Hmm~ Let me sleep for another five minutes..." Ji Zi answered subconsciously and buried her head in the quilt.

"Did you stay up late again last night?" Yun Ling asked in a soft voice.

"...A bit insomniac...?" Ji Zi seemed to react, and her eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly widened.

Looking at Yun Ling who was so close in front of her, she immediately wrapped her body, which was full of mature woman's charm, with a quilt.

This guy actually pried open her door again!

Ji Zi's cheeks flushed slightly, not sure if it was out of embarrassment or anger.

"Insomnia... Then do you want me to give you a little massage? I learned some massage techniques in the medical class a few days ago, which can help your body relax a little." Yun Ling seemed unaware and still asked with concern.

"Shouldn't you explain why you are here before this?" Ji Zi narrowed her eyes and asked with a little displeasure.

The last time Yun Ling broke in, she accidentally hurt Yun Ling and agreed to go on a date with him.

But afterwards she recalled that Yun Ling seemed to have pried open the door of her house and entered!

This is already considered illegal trespassing!

"This is a perfect boyfriend's wake-up service. I originally wanted to give Ji Zi a good morning kiss, but considering that Ji Zi might beat me up after waking up, I temporarily gave up the idea." Yun Ling spread his hands.

"I still want to beat you up to vent my anger!" Ji Zi threw a punch, but Yun Ling dodged it easily.

"Jizi, I don't recommend you do any strenuous exercise right now. After all, you're wearing very cool clothes. If I'm not careful, I might end up enjoying the morning benefits. I don't mind that, though."

Yun Ling gently grasped her wrist with his backhand, then slowly lowered her hand.

"What did you call me?" Ji Zi raised her eyebrows.

"Of course it's Ji Zi. Today I am Ji Zi's boyfriend for a day. Our beautiful and generous Ji Zi should not go back on her word, right?" Yun Ling tilted his head.

"...You can't say for sure." Ji Zi glared at him fiercely.

Before Ji Zi could continue speaking, Yun Ling consciously left the apartment and waited outside.

About half an hour passed before Ji Zi finally walked out of the apartment.

"You're so beautiful! Did you put on makeup specially for our date?" Yun Ling looked at Ji Zi in front of him and couldn't help but praise her.

Her fiery red long hair was tied up with a few strands left on her temples, and her charming fair face was embellished with light makeup.

Her slender neck showed her delicate collarbone to Yun Ling without reservation, and her high and bulging chest supported her extremely plump figure, as if showing off her figure.

"After all, I promised you, and you took it very seriously. I would feel bad if I dealt with it casually." Ji Zi said helplessly.

Obviously, she still didn't have much of a crush on Yun Ling and simply regarded him as a student or a junior.

"That's great." Yun Ling didn't pay attention to Ji Zi's words. Instead, he continued with a smile on his face.

"Yun Ling, you're a little abnormal today." Ji Zi looked at him suspiciously.

"Maybe it's because I was so happy about my date with Jizi. Come to think of it, I couldn't sleep last night because when I thought about..."

"Okay, okay, these cheesy words have no effect on me." Ji Zi waved her hand coldly. She could already guess about 80% of Yun Ling's next words.

"So, Ji Zi, is there any place you want to go today?" Yun Ling got straight to the point.

"Hmm...bar?" Ji Zi suggested the place she wanted to go at the right time.

"A bar would be a good last stop for the day, but what about before that?"

"You should have planned it, just arrange it." Ji Zi said casually.

"Okay, then our first stop is the love hotel."

"You want to die, don't you?"

"Sorry, I accidentally got it wrong. This is the last stop."

"..."
