415: Chapter 92 Dreams and the Future 415: Chapter 92 Dreams and the Future “I’ve always found Zero Island to be a conservative and stable country, until I looked out the window half a minute ago,” Gongsun Ce said, “I almost thought I had gone back to the Sky City of six years ago.”
As he spoke, the Superpower User had to raise his voice because the cacophony of noise from outside was ridiculously loud.
After enduring the Ninja Army’s internal strife, the arrival of the Red Mage, the Evil Spirit’s chaos, the calamity of the False Light, and the citywide revival along with Weiyuan City rising into the air and then crashing down, it was no surprise that the capital of Zero Island…
…had ground to a halt.
“All of this is Giant Union’s conspiracy!” A punk rock singer in a leather jacket scread as if his heart was being ripped out, “The capitalists sent flesh-eating Ninjas to plunder Weiyuan City!!
Our souls and flesh are being stolen!”
“Blasphemy!
Have you not witnessed the miracle of the Huojin God!!!” An extremist religious figure dressed as a priest, holding a makeshift flying contraption, argued back, “Kneel down imdiately!!”
“Are you kidding , asshole, I used to be in the underworld!” The punk rock singer threatened!
“Eeyah-!” The feigned priest, extrely tense, retaliated with karate!
“Gwah-!””I’ll kill you, son of a bitch!” The verbal altercation quickly escalated into a brawl.
Next to them, a gang of riffraff who had slipped in from the outskirts were seizing the chance to loot a jewelry store.
They jubilantly lifted gold chains above their heads, only to discover they were chocolate candies coated with gold leaf.
Looking further off, a gang of thugs wearing sunglasses rode in on motorcycles, with flags that read “Order is Priority”, “Obey or Get Hit”, and “Huojin God Above” – oh how frightening!
They were the underworld tasked with maintaining temporary order!
Shiyu Lianyi knew his friend’s temperant, and he figured that if it went on, the severely injured Gongsun Ce would soon be jumping out of bed.
Thus, the man in the suit drew the curtains, gently reminding him, “Don’t worry, the Ninja Army and the military will take care of restoring order.”
Gongsun Ce still looked sowhat anxious: “I…”
“You’ve done enough for this country, Gongsun,” Shiyu Lianyi said decisively, “Besides, you know that going down now would only add to the chaos.”
“Fine,” Gongsun Ce spread his hands, “How are you feeling now?”
“…” Shiyu Lianyi said, “like I just finished the last exam of the finals.”
“Revenge sounds like a mission to you.”
Shiyu Lianyi sat down by the bed.
“Well, it is, right?
You know it’s sothing that you have to finish, but there’s more to life than just that.
You have many things worth doing, about the life you love and the people you love…
So you want to complete this mission quickly, just to fully imrse yourself in your true life,” Shiyu Lianyi said with a smile, “Having only revenge on mind would turn you into Shiyu Genmi.”
Gongsun Ce studied his friend’s profile, trying to find resemblances to his biological father.
But however he looked, he couldn’t find any similarities between this father and son; their smiles were different, the things they cared about in their eyes were different.
Aside from their blood relation, it seed the only things they had in common were their handso appearances and that cursed surna.
“Rage, rage, rage…” Gongsun Ce said seriously, “Poet!”
“You’ll assimilate with the Ninjas if you talk like them for too long.”
“What’s wrong with that?
Being a Ninja seems pretty good.” Gongsun Ce stretched and yawned, the action causing his whole body to ache, almost making him roll on the bed in pain.
“At least Ninjas don’t have to think much…
Ouch, just thinking about it makes my head hurt, the mories of Shiyu Zhongyi and the followers of Shiyu Genmi…”
“Leave it to the professionals.
They will surely leave traces,” Shiyu Lianyi said, “For now, Gongsun, you need to rest.”
The Superpower User pointed feebly at the clock.
“It’s 11:30 a.m.
now, we finished the fight just before 7 a.m., I’ve been resting all morning!
Let tell you, I’m both tired and wired, that feeling when your bones are about to break, but you’re not sleepy at all.”
Shiyu Lianyi thought for a mont and then said, “How about I take you out for a ride in the wheelchair?”
“Why not?”
So, the freshman year Gongsun Ce sat in the wheelchair like a grouchy old man, clutching his briefcase.
They left the temporarily converted reception room, used as a sickroom, and strolled half a circuit in the garden filled with bizarre and exotic plants (all grown by Ming Guests), and saw Rina also in a wheelchair and Qiluo pushing her.
“Gongsun Ce!” Qiluo exclaid with joy, hugging him as she used to do, “You made it out alive!”
“Don’t make it sound like I was on my deathbed, alright!
I’m fine I’m not hurt so don’t get so close ahhh!!!”
“It’s been so long since I’ve seen you face to face…
talking on the phone was stifling!”
Communicating over the phone is stifling?
What kind of perception does an Information Life Form have of life?!
“Qiluo, you’ve truly been a big help all along,” Gongsun Ce said gratefully, his voice cracking, “And now my head bones are really crackling, please have rcy.”
“Uh oh!
Are you alright?”
Gongsun Ce was pretty sure that hug just caused an ominous noise in one of his bones, thankful for his friend’s sincere concern, he scrambled to extricate himself and t the little witch’s disdainful gaze.
“Sister, why are you looking at as if I’m a lower life form.”
“Little Ce…” Rina smacked her lips ambiguously, “You really should learn from Shiyu Lianyi.”
Learn what from Mr.
Shiyu?
How to dress up like a deranged killer?
“Forget it, that’s not for ,” Gongsun Ce waved dismissively, “Speaking of which, it’s quite a coincidence, sister, that you’re also in a wheelchair, making it a pair with .”
