Chapter 358: Chapter 81: Joyous Red and White Occasion, Lover in the Walls (Seeking Monthly Votes)"Alas, in the end, I still couldnât defy the heavens and change my fate."
"Too much as well as too little? Too clever by half with all my schemes?"
"Iâve maxed out everything I could do, what more does it take?"
Xu Shu, just eighteen, sat in the supply point inn room located in the wasteland coordinates of D8B3 area (19,18) on the third floor, looking back on his own legendary experiences, he couldnât help but heave a sigh.
In this life, he walked on thin ice, death lingering like a constant breeze. From Raccoon City to Jingling Court, he didnât even blink.
Yet unexpectedly, even so, he couldnât avert the disaster of Izanami bringing about the apocalypse ahead of schedule by half a year.
After all, on the list of Divine Valley First-class, there was only one green Destiny Seal.
This time Arthur might have dual Destiny Seals, blue and green, which quality-wise, certainly surpassed the Divine Valley First-class by a lot.
This gave Xu Shu a bit of a headache.
"Could it be that I used the Destiny Seal incorrectly this time, not in line with its true purpose? That would make some sense..."
"Thinking about it, I really did obsess too much. I should have continued to extend âdeath is like the windâ, turning passive into active! Although I canât meet with Divine Valley First-class, I could have killed everyone in Japan before Izanamiâs arrival!"
"That way, it would be as if I caused the apocalypse, not her, haha. Of course, maybe Iâd get taken down early by the joint forces of the whole Cursed World."
After a review, Xu Shu shook his head and sighed.
The rewards for this time were actually quite good.
He ascended two levels instantly and acquired a new Epic Curse Seal Altar.
But in the end, there were some regrets, since he didnât survive to the very end, and he couldnât truly die a natural death, he died prematurely.
Besides, this time he felt a bit sorry for Jing Xiaohua. She trusted him so much with her grand ambitions and ideals, and yet she died under Izanamiâs wrath without ever finding the entrance to Spirit Mountain she sought after all her lifeâtruly regrettable.
Regarding this, Xu Shu could only lament that indeed, the will of the heavens had always been unfathomable and impenetrable.
There were still many secrets to uncover in the Tai Chu Scroll, and he could put in more effort.
After so many legends, almost each and every one ended abruptly.
The time he was closest to a natural death, he was killed by a strange entity that arrived at the last minute, just because he was obsessed with pursuing Transcendent beings.
"It dares not let him truly complete a legend, does it?"
"Speaking of which, Iâve gained an achievement called âDeath Godâs Favoredâ. Doesnât that mean that Althias is a Death God?"
"I wonder if the battle between Ksitigarbha and Him has ended and who came out on top. Sigh, afterward, I havenât received any useful news."
"This makes the origins of Tailed Ksitigarbha quite intriguing."
"Could it be that after Ksitigarbhaâs defeat, a part of his body became Tailed Ksitigarbha, directly influencing reality from the corresponding ruins?"
"If I base it on the logic that every legend of mine is tied to the ruins that appear in the real world, itâs not impossible!"
"But itâs also possible that Tailed Ksitigarbha is just some Evil Spirit trying to glamorize its own history, since neither Death God Althias nor Ksitigarbha is within its reach to claim..."
"However, I now know for sure that itâs connected to both Althias and Ksitigarbha and have learned more secret knowledge about Him, such as a sacrificial prayer that can summon Althias!"
"Of course, whether this prayer can also work in the real world is unknown and requires further verification."
Xu Shu tapped his index finger continuously on the tabletop.
The information he had received was still too little to uncover the entire truth.
"Well, letâs take it one step at a time. It hasnât come after me yet, so I have time to test its limits."
"If it doesnât work out, Iâll just retreat."
"After all, weâre in the Wasteland, and it canât get too cocky here."
Xu Shuâs lips quirked into a smile.
So what if itâs connected to Divine-level beings?
Lie Zhenzi must have blocked who knows how many Evil Gods from the outside.
They wouldnât dare to come to the border line to challenge me!
"The day has come to a close, and things have come to this, so letâs have dinner."
Xu Shu straightened himself and then went down to the innâs first floor to order dinner.
There was a good number of people here, a rather bustling supply point nearby, so there was a cafeteria providing some hot dishes.
The innkeeper, a rather business-savvy person, had set up a self-service restaurant.
In short, different hot dishes were sorted into bowls, and guests could pick whatever and however much they wanted on their plates and pay by weight at the cashier, with different prices for meat and vegetables.
Such restaurants had been very popular in human society before the Great Catastrophe.
And now, many could still be seen in the safe zones.
But at this supply point 250, or even 260 kilometers from the safe zone, it did seem a bit extravagant.
On one hand, there were fewer diners, and on the other, what if the food wasnât finished and went to waste?
Xu Shu noticed that many of the plates were not quite uniform, new and old mixedâa clear sign that this self-service restaurant was a recent addition.
