59: Chapter 59: This time I transmigrated, I gained 0.18 Luck Coins! Various Chosen One factions were successively established!
Splash!
The Dragon was half-submerged in the water, revealing a bloody head, staring at the Dinosaur Chicken on the pool bank with scarlet, bloodthirsty rage.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck!"
Seeing the Dragon fail its strike and not dare to leave the water again, the Dinosaur Chicken was extremely anxious!
It paced back and forth on the bank, emitting mocking cries, trying to lure the Dragon onto the land.
Stimulated by the intense pain, the Dragon seemed to have learned its lesson; it stayed in the water, staring angrily without coming ashore.
The two behemoths remained in a stalemate for some time.
Finally, hearing the cries of its own kind from afar, the Dinosaur Chicken had to leave, looking back every three steps, its eyes filled with reluctance and resentment.
"When gods fight, Mortals suffer. If they keep fighting, I'm afraid I'll become the innocent victim."
The Dragon submerged to the bottom of the pool.
Director An Lei let go of the grass roots, preparing to go and snatch the Dragon blood scattered in the nearby grass and woods.
"...Why do I feel a cold breeze behind me?"
Just as he was about to turn around, a Hummingbird suddenly shot down from the sky!
With precise and elegant flight control, it caught him in its mouth!
"I escaped the water and the grass, but I forgot the 'oriole' in the sky..."
Director An Lei's vision went black, and his consciousness plunged into the void.
"Strange, don't crayfish usually live in the water? How did it end up on land?"
The Hummingbird chewed with satisfaction, a hint of confusion surfacing in its mind.
"Perhaps it was caused by the water disturbance when those two big guys were fighting earlier..."
[Ding! You have died]
[Based on world contribution, calculating corresponding destiny coin]
[Settlement complete: You have obtained a total of 0.18 destiny coin this Transmigration]
As the synthetic electronic voice faded, Director An Lei felt the world spinning.
Opening his eyes again, he found himself back in the sacred and bright Temple of Destiny.
"0.18 destiny coin... Not bad. Converted into gold from the Destiny Shop, it's worth about twenty thousand!"
Seeing the 'inexpensive' gold in the Destiny Shop before him, Director An Lei's eyes nearly popped out.
"Hiss, this is even higher than my average monthly salary!"
"Why bother with criminal investigation? Spending ten minutes a day playing in the Origin Continent seems much more relaxed and comfortable, doesn't it?"
The next second, Director An Lei shook his head, casting aside such lazy thoughts.
As a person with a strong sense of justice, how could he spend his days indulging in pleasure?
"My life goal is: to purge evil spirits and wipe out demons!"
Putting away the crystal panel in front of him, Director An Lei did not use his first destiny coin.
He wanted to save it to exchange for a Spirit Crystal!
After all, only by stepping into the Transcendent Domain with his physical body in reality could he possess the initial strength to confront 'rogue Transcendents'.
At this moment, there was a lot of foot traffic in the temple hall.
Some newcomers, after returning from the Origin Continent, gathered together to discuss the best ways to obtain destiny coin.
"Let me tell you, the fastest way to get destiny coin isn't by hiding and cultivating!"
"Oh? Do you have inside information? Quickly tell us brothers."
"Hehe, I found that killing other creatures yields more destiny coin during settlement~"
"...Isn't this forcing people to fall into the path of slaughter?"
The person next to him heard this, his brows furrowing.
Having grown up in peaceful times, he was naturally averse to the word 'slaughter' and allergic to bright red blood.
"What's wrong with the path of slaughter?"
The man smiled mysteriously and said, "Since it exists, it proves there's a reason for its existence. Haven't you heard a saying?"
"What saying?"
"The Heavenly Dao is ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs. The Saint is ruthless, treating the people as straw dogs."
"Heaven and Earth disregard all life; isn't the slaughter between them just a rule of how the world operates?"
"We cannot change the rules, so we must follow the trend and become the strongest leader of the 'world of slaughter'!"
As the man spoke, a ghostly light flashed in his eyes, as if he had made a certain decision.
He invited the few people, "Are you interested in joining the [World Destroyer Alliance]?"
"Damn it!"
"You look refined and handsome, with a shy appearance, but you're full of bad intentions. You're just another dark person wanting to imitate Sima Yan!"
"Even if I starve to death, even if I die poor! I will never commit 'world-destroying acts' that extinguish humanity!"
"Hehe, are you sure you want to refuse so decisively?"
The corners of the man's mouth curled up, and he spoke again:
"There's one more thing I forgot to mention: as long as you join our [World Destroyer Alliance], you will be rewarded with 0.5 destiny coin, and various Cultivation resources will be distributed from time to time..."
"What—there's such a good thing?"
"Brother, I take back what I said earlier, I want to join your team too!"
"Dad, we want to join too!"
"..."
Director An Lei retracted his ears and shook his head with a sigh.
Human nature truly cannot withstand any test; compared to empty beliefs, bread and water seem much more tangible?
Immediately, he began to walk around the hall.
He didn't deliberately strike up conversations with anyone, just quietly listening to their discussions with each other.
Perhaps because the Temple of Destiny is Transcendent and detached from the world, and because memories of this place are Sealed in reality, some people seemed to want to vent all their past grievances.
They dared to discuss anything, dared to curse anything!
Some even pointed directly at Yanjing, making Director An Lei, a police officer, feel his scalp tingle, and he quickly fled the scene.
A few minutes later, the conversation of some other people caught his attention.
"My home is in the Northeast; how will I find you guys then?"
"That's simple. Buy a 'Space-Time Capsule' in the Destiny Shop, write down my phone number, and after you go out, extract it from the Destiny website, then call my number, and I will send someone to pick you up."
"...You can do that?"
"Doesn't this mean we can use the Space-Time Capsule to transmit some secret information to reality?"
"You're overthinking it. The Temple of Destiny possesses a 'Will of Operation' that audits the contents of the Space-Time Capsule."
"Fine, then I'll buy a Space-Time Capsule now."
"..."
Director An Lei pricked up his ears and listened quietly for a while, gradually understanding the meaning behind those people's words—they wanted to meet in reality and form a [Transcendent Club] consisting entirely of Destined Ones!
"The first batch of Destined Ones probably hasn't been here for many days, are they already forming offline teams so quickly?"
"If such a batch of Transcendents gathers together and a chaotic battle breaks out, it would be a disaster for reality!"
After staying in the hall for about half an hour, Director An Lei's thoughts fluctuated, and his figure disappeared from the Temple of Destiny.
Xuancheng, Kang'an District. On the street of Fuxing Road.
Director An Lei woke up from the back seat of a car.
He glanced at the time on his phone and found that exactly 11 minutes had passed.
"Interesting, I have become a [Destined One]..."
Closing the Destiny website on his phone screen, Director An Lei held the phone and pondered for a while.
He had no memory of the Temple of Destiny, but combined with the clues he already had, the identity of the perpetrator became clear in an instant; this person must also be a [Destined One]!
Bang. He closed the car door.
He arrived at a mobile phone shop with street surveillance.
"Hello sir, I'd like to access your shop's surveillance footage."
"Surveillance? No problem, this is the computer, feel free to use it."
The middle-aged man wearing slippers and shorts saw the shining ID, and immediately stood up from the plastic stool.
His face was full of smiles, with an expression of 'I am a law-abiding citizen'."]}```
