Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2748: Chapter 2743: 1-013

Fear is equivalent, so naturally, courage is also equivalent.

It’s hard to say if it’s an illusion, but when Gan Baobao left, her steps seemed a bit lighter than when she came.

Actually, after the comment on the fear of death, Fu Qian didn’t say much more.

Instead, he made full use of the blank space to stimulate the other’s independent thinking.

It was actually enough — his relationship with Mr. Gan Sr. was only so close; did he really expect a comprehensive psychological consultation for free?

Fortunately, young people are just this point won’t disappoint, as long as you casually start, they can come up with a bunch themselves.

And as a dignified Demigod, demonstrating some things personally also clearly carries extra persuasion.

In general, Miss Gan Baobao seemed very satisfied when she left, and she didn’t ask more questions.

In fact, regarding her Municipal Official father, although her initial question seemed somewhat disrespectful, essentially it wasn’t disdain from children; on the contrary, it was a form of standing up for justice.

A father with high position and authority and extraordinary courage, in the end, managed to do what others couldn’t even dream of.

Children, with a little understanding, can easily develop feelings of reverence.

Yet amidst the thriving success, certain self-righteous figures at the banquet made this success mocking.

If you say that growing up is a process of debunking myths, gradually realizing that parents aren’t omnipotent.

Then for the children in the Bookstore World, this process is clearly more cruel.

No matter how impeccable the parents are, once you grow up and realize the covered chasm between ordinary people and the Transcendent, all reverence will lose its support.

For Miss Gan Baobao, although her father is exceptionally outstanding, ironically, the good conditions he created for her made it easier for her than most to realize how wide that chasm truly is.

Regarding this, as previously mentioned, Fu Qian wasn’t trying to comfort with something like life is inherently equal for everyone; not even everyone is equal before death.

Because it’s inherently unequal, Transcendents are much harder to kill than ordinary people.

Since his practice began, encountering various risky individuals has already proven this point.

But even so, it still doesn’t prevent finding the side of equality.

Hard to kill doesn’t mean not afraid of death; a rich man losing a hundred versus an ordinary person losing a hundred will certainly show differently.

But when a rich man loses everything against an ordinary person losing everything, it might not always be different.

Even for a ”Superior Being.”

Recalling various shapeshifting ”High-level Life” and various struggling means, Fu Qian drank the last sip of tea and casually removed the Messenger.

The reason for not rushing to business previously was partly due to plans to check in at the warehouse over there.

Combining production, study, and research isn’t that simple.

...

[Warning, disclosure incident]

A familiar scene again, and only two tasks were completed this week so far, so the warehouse’s welcoming words weren’t surprising.

[Name: Demon Mountain, Code: 1-013]

[Today’s work content has been updated, enter the containment scene of 1-013, complete the recontainment]

[Will 1 SAN Point be consumed to begin?]

Another task with code 1? The warehouse has a bit of an urgent, heavy task vibe recently.

Sitting in his place, listening to the continually ringing prompts, Fu Qian also couldn’t help but sigh.

If memory serves correctly, there are three tasks this week, all from the first tier team; the warehouse’s favor makes one moved.

Not to mention, through previous research on SAN Points and Inspiration, he has gained more anticipation for the work content.

As the ultimate version of the 99-Inspiration chaos core, stepping into this piece of history, what kind of storm will be stirred?

It wasn’t deliberately metaphorical.

Mainly, with the prompt sounds, the virtual image appearing in the warehouse was strange itself.

Indeed, it somewhat fits the name Demon Mountain; that thing is like a gigantic pyramid, very majestically towering.

Yet, when it comes to details, there’s a certain indescribable awkwardness.

Specifically, it’s like the whole mountain isn’t made of stacked huge stones, but soft, creamy strips, spiraling up.

As a person with rich imagination, just one glance at the shape imposed some kind of subtle suggestion.

[Yes]

Of course, as a professional, Fu Qian still responded without any hesitation.

...

[Entering 1-013 containment scene]

[Current SAN Points 177]

Because of eating the umbilical cord, the increased SAN Points indeed provided a feeling of thick blood oxygen.

Unfortunately, it’s ultimately not a joyful youthful journey; if it were before, it would have indeed brought such effects.

But considering now the permissions have advanced to ”all-in,” most tasks only have one chance to err, if failed, deduct 5 SAN Points to skip, somewhat locking blood anyways—

[This is a special task, must successfully complete containment, until SAN Points reach zero]

Fu Qian was still sighing about life at this moment, when the unpredictability of life was proven yet again.

A special prompt seemed to tell him not to lament, blood oxygen actually increased.

Could there be unbelievable things inside?

Undoubtedly deeply touched, but the point of touch may not be quite right.

Though it hasn’t triggered any one yet, since the promotion, this is the first time he’s encountered a situation where it can’t be skipped, the view is special nonetheless.

It’s like I can stay home, but you can’t lock me inside.

But compared to this discomfort, what obviously concerns Fu Qian more is the cause of discomfort.

Why must it be completed?

According to previous cases, even if the Administrator fails, the warehouse should be able to forcibly flatten history.

This time the deficit is pretty severe, the warehouse can’t afford it?

Unlikely, over forty tasks since started, surely he saved some effort for It?

Slightly shaking his head, at that moment Fu Qian expressed soaring expectation, more curious about what goblins and monsters could be encountered in the task.

[Due to load constraints, you cannot carry any additional items]

[Due to load constraints, most damages will not be repaired after the task is completed]

[Entering 1-013 containment scene]

The warehouse’s prompts are indeed orderly.

Tsk tsk...

Among the old reminders, at that moment Fu Qian sighed in his heart, realizing a critical option still hadn’t appeared—no choosing the Abandonment King Skill.

Code 1, cannot skip, and even another restricted ability?

It really is—wonderful.

Only saying the warehouse plays promotions well, even as a seasoned Administrator, Fu Qian still felt his anticipation stirred.

[...8%...13%...21%...34%...55%...89%...100%, containment scene loading complete]

Most comforting, the anticipation doesn’t need delayed fulfillment.
