173: Nothing to do today, listen to music in the brothel
Ji Nu saw Han Lie's excited expression, paused slightly, and then hurriedly explained:
"Young Master, I think I need to explain something to you. In Jile Pavilion, you can only cultivate for two hours a day. The remaining twenty-two hours must be spent on enjoyment!"
"I understand!"
Han Lie nodded slightly. There was something he wasn't sure if he should say.
If he wasn't mistaken, the enjoyment they were talking about now should be his daily life.
It was just that due to the special nature of the Town Boundary Tower, this enjoyment had reached its peak.
If he was previously served by ordinary people,
then now, those serving him should be peerless beauties and top-tier martial artists.
"That's great!"
"I'm already tired of fighting and killing. I was just thinking of taking a good rest, and unexpectedly, a pillow was delivered just as I was getting sleepy!"
"This..." Ji Nu hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.
"No, Young Master?" Lü Nu, being straightforward, blurted out, "Aren't you anxious about not having time to cultivate every day?"
"Hmm?" Han Lie raised an eyebrow upon hearing that, shrugging without saying much, "Maybe, but these are your rules after all, and it seems I can only comply?"
"Yes!"
Ji Nu pointed to the snowy mountain behind him, "These are the rules of this world. Not only you, Young Master, but all young men and women who come to this world later must obey this rule. If not, something terrifying will happen!"
Upon hearing this, Lü Nu seemed to recall something frightening, shivering uncontrollably, and then reminded him:
"Young Master, you must, must, must obey the rules, otherwise, not only you but even we will suffer along with you!"
"What are you saying?" Ji Nu seemed very displeased with Lü Nu's tone of voice, reaching out and pulling her behind him.
Then she said to Han Lie:
"Young Master, she's young and speaks without thinking. Please don't blame her!"
"Not at all, not at all!"
Han Lie waved his hand dismissively, but he had a certain guess in his heart. According to the information he had now, as long as he obeyed the rules, he seemed to be the emperor of this world.
He could do whatever he wanted.
But these rules were too simple, weren't they?
"Is it that simple?"
Han Lie was very surprised.
"Of course not..." Ji Nu gently shook her head, "There will be corresponding rules later. The reason why I can't tell you now, Young Master, is because it's still uncertain how many Universe of Myriad Races geniuses will ultimately come to this world..."
"Oh?"
Han Lie nodded slightly, "So there's still a similar competitive mechanism?"
"Yes!" Ji Nu nodded in reply, "But for you, Young Master, it should be quite easy. Your ability to reach the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level first is enough to explain everything. Lü Nu and I are truly lucky to be able to take care of you, Young Master..."
"That's not true!"
Lü Nu retorted from behind.
"I told you not to..."
Ji Nu was about to turn back and scold her, because she knew that Han Lie held the power of life and death over the two of them, so some things couldn't be said casually.
But then she heard Lü Nu say energetically:
"Sister, I'm not saying the Young Master is bad. I mean, it's not that we are lucky enough, it's that you and I are among the best in terms of talent, appearance, and status within our clans, which is why we were sent to take care of the first strong practitioner to arrive at the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level!!"
With that, she took a step forward.
She looked up, as if to prove something.
She fully exposed her beautiful face to Han Lie, pursing her lips and saying, "Young Master, we are the best!"
"Alright, I know!"
Han Lie nodded slightly, not overly concerned about these things. Life in the Town Boundary Tower right now was like walking on thin ice.
Whether he could successfully reach the other side,
He needed to be extra careful. This world currently looked extremely beautiful, but the more beautiful it was, the more it represented danger.
"What are the subsequent elimination rules?"
Han Lie asked.
"That... I'm not too sure!" Ji Nu said, "But I heard that it should still be related to raw strength, so Young Master, don't worry too much, you'll definitely be fine!"
"Raw strength?"
Han Lie fell into contemplation.
Being allowed only enjoyment and no cultivation every day, and then having a raw strength assessment in the end—what kind of ridiculous rules were these?
The person who made these rules,
Couldn't possibly have a screw loose, could they?
But hey hey,
What he was best at was increasing his strength while enjoying himself. It was practically a perfect match.
"So now I just wait?"
Han Lie asked.
"Yes!" Lü Nu, seeing her sister tired from talking, jumped in and eagerly said, "Young Master, as the first strong practitioner to reach the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level, you can be the first to experience everything inside Jile Pavilion.
You can command any living creature you see at will.
You can ask us for anything, including what you see and what you don't see!"
"Oh?"
"That is, everything in this world, I can get it for you!"
"Including real people?" Han Lie asked.
"Ah... that's not possible!"
After Lü Nu finished speaking, she quickly added, fearing Han Lie's dissatisfaction, "However, illusions of real people can be brought to you, guaranteed to be exactly like the real thing, with the same emotions, appearance, actions..."
"Oh!"
Han Lie just asked casually. Once he confirmed that people from outside couldn't enter, he felt much more at ease.
He knew that the helpers he could find were pitifully few compared to his enemies. Thinking about this, he asked again:
"Besides this, are the people I can interact with every day, and the food I eat, all real? This world isn't an illusion, is it? You're not fake, are you?"
"Of course not!!"
Lü Nu shook her head like a rattle-drum, and as if to prove herself, she took a step forward, getting very close to Han Lie.
She looked up, offering her face.
"Guaranteed real!"
"If you don't believe me, pinch it!"
Han Lie always believed in not wasting an opportunity to pinch, so he casually pinched it. The feel was good, though of course he knew this didn't prove anything. But who cared if it was real or fake?
As long as the experience was comfortable.
He had asked enough questions,
Next, he would have to wait for others to arrive at the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level. As for now, it seemed there was nothing else to do but enjoy himself.
Then,
Han Lie directly called out:
"You two, help me set up a tent at the foot of the mountain, a particularly large one.
Then get me an SSSSSS-level cosmic battle car, preferably like an RV, and just park it nearby as a decoration..."
"Also, create a camping atmosphere for me, bring some ambiance crews, not too noisy, and no men!"
"Oh, and there are requirements for selecting the ambiance crew. First, as just mentioned, they all must be women.
Secondly, they must be of various races, with absolutely no repetition. In terms of temperament, personality, and appearance, let them be a hundred flowers blooming!"
"Also, prepare these things for me..."
Han Lie pulled out a list from his spatial ring. These were the snacks he usually ate, things the system mistakenly thought of after a cognitive error.
He couldn't eat them before, not because his status wasn't high enough—even someone of Jijiang's status couldn't treat products from the Universe of Myriad Races as snacks.
Simply put, humanity's strength was insufficient, and Blue Star's conditions were limited.
Now, he should be able to achieve food freedom.
He would try everything he hadn't eaten before, only knowing their names.
"Okay, and get me a dozen more beauties like you two. Oh, do you two have any talents?"
"Talents?"
The two women laughed at his question.
"Young Master, just tell us what you want to see. As long as you want to see it, there's absolutely nothing we can't do. We were born to do this!"
"Can you do somersaults?"
".........."
"Hahaha, just kidding!"
Han Lie chuckled, "Playing an instrument, singing a song, something like that, no problem, right?"
"Absolutely no problem!"
The two women said with a smile.
"Alright, then you two go get busy first!"
Han Lie stood up and stretched, preparing to wander around, casually saying:
"I don't want to cultivate..."
"Then I can only,"
"With nothing to do today, I'll enjoy some music at the brothel!"
At the same time,
The people outside were stunned.
In the Yu Tong Livestream,
"No, how is Han Lie starting to enjoy life like this? What kind of trial, what kind of rules are there on the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level?!"
"Damn it, there's too little reference data. Currently, only Han Lie has reached the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level, but he looks so comfortable!!"
"My god, thousands of people seem to be serving him. Is he like an emperor on the Zhenjie Tower - Third Level?!"
"Holy moly, could it be that the scene before us is a benefit of the Town Suppressing Pagoda Second Layer?!"
The Universe of Myriad Races had no idea what was happening, because the information they could get was too little. They couldn't understand the mysteries within just by watching, only feeling a bit of simple envy for Han Lie.
This kind of life,
Just looking at it from the outside felt wonderful, but while it couldn't compare to the best, wasn't it still better than the worst?
Switching perspectives directly,
Now, in Demon War's main perspective, the battle between the real and fake Demon War had reached a fever pitch. If one hadn't been constantly following, they wouldn't know which one was the real Demon War.
And now, the real Demon War had half his body pierced through, and the fake one wasn't much better, having lost the ability to attack with one hand and seemingly having trouble walking with one leg.
At this moment,
It was truly a battle of willpower.
The top ten geniuses were mostly in similar situations; they had pulled out all their trump cards. Such a fierce battle had even damaged their foundations.
But there was no choice,
If they didn't keep fighting, they would die.
Those ranked lower weren't doing much better.
Perhaps it was discovered that they were exploiting loopholes,
Or the time for their departure had entered a countdown, and they simply didn't have enough matched rounds.
So the glacier rules began to forcefully assign opponents to them. For those with extremely few rounds, some were even matched with 100 opponents at once.
Their strength struggled against even one opponent, so when 100 geniuses appeared, they were almost instantly annihilated.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred losses were added.
This led to,
The people at the back quickly accumulated losses, losing five thousand matches in no time. Then, like snowflakes, they disappeared, the ice beneath their feet melting, erasing the last trace of their existence in this world.
The number of geniuses was rapidly decreasing.
"—Dong!"
Among the top ten geniuses' duels, one finally yielded a result first: the copy of Man Huang shattered the real body's head with a punch!!
However, something terrifying happened.
The copy did not disappear.
Instead, it devoured the real Man Huang while laughing maniacally!!
Then its body quickly recovered, and its physical strength seemed to have greatly increased!!!
