My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 249 - 235: Emergency Contact Device

If audio player doesn't work, press Reset or reload the page.

Olivia sat down heavily on the floor of the Consciousness Space, and in the next moment, the emergency communication device in her hand seemed about to be triggered.

In a panic, she quickly tossed the emergency communication device aside to prevent it from being activated, thinking that if she accidentally triggered it, she might as well just apologize with her life.

Fortunately, amidst the chaos, the one-armed Xue Dili caught the still warm emergency communication device, and it appeared that it hadn't been triggered.

"Finally, we're saved. You're really reliable, kid. Oh right, your hand…" Olivia immediately noticed Xue Dili's smooth cut at the elbow, which seemed unnaturally smooth, as if it had been cut by space.

"This? Oh, it's just a minor injury. It'll heal quickly on my end." Xue Dili raised his severed arm, with countless streams of blood flowing through it, yet not a drop spilled.

The Cursed Blood quickly controlled the wound and began regenerating. He indeed didn't care much about such minor injuries. After all, even if he really died now, his soul could hang on long enough for his mom to come fetch him.

In fact, if even his mom couldn't retrieve him, Blue Star's World Consciousness might just roll out a parallel world version of himself. Then they could perform rituals like "Summoning of Heroic Spirits" on him, allowing him to reincarnate.

In any case, as long as he didn't encounter an enemy that could completely obliterate his soul, things wouldn't be too problematic.

Olivia only then noticed Xue Dili's arm regenerating visibly before her eyes, and judging by the speed, it would grow back in just a few minutes, allowing her to breathe a sigh of relief.

She plopped down on the ground, fanning herself with the edge of her clothes without any consideration for appearance.

In such a short time just now, she had already become drenched in sweat.

She hadn't expected to be exposed so abruptly. Damn, this neurotic World Consciousness didn't even bother to announce a version update, nearly causing her to crash.

If she crashed here, just like Lotte did, the others in the team would probably feel bad too.

Xue Dili: "..."

Sis, you really don't treat him as an outsider, do you?

He turned his head slightly. Next to him, Little Dragon Lady, seemingly witnessing such a bold big sister for the first time, wanted to mimic Olivia's actions, attempting to yank off her own…

"Pa!" A solid whack landed on Little Dragon Lady's head, causing her to cover her head and tear up instantly.

Xue Dili, worried she'd learn something inappropriate, used the Immortal Grasp to lift her by the scruff of her neck and tossed her to the back.

Seeing another Little Dragon Lady besides the rookie, Olivia tensed up immediately. But after looking around and not finding the muscular dinosaur ancestor and the shackle-wooden dragon behind the Little Dragon Lady, she finally relaxed.

"What… I thought she was a real dragon. Turns out she's a fake dragon just like me…" Olivia scrutinized Little Dragon Lady and realized that other than looking like a dragon, she had nothing else dragon-related.

Now, free from that tense environment, she finally felt a bit relaxed, and as her brain started working, she began contemplating many questions.

Did I not send a request for support to the rookie? How did he know?

Besides, a space locking Technique was set up in the Dragon Race's Holy Mountain just now. They couldn't even open a Teleportation Gate, let alone use Space Storage, or simple space applications like Space Slash to bisect someone, right?

How did the rookie manage to extract her from the space-locked area?

And what's up with that Violent Dragon God stone idiot? Why did he fall into a state of silence and confusion upon seeing a space crack? Even Tier Five dragons in this world are this weak?

"And that neurotic World Consciousness, once we rescue Him, I absolutely have to extort a hefty sum. Can't send a word during such a big event when I'm undercover? If it weren't for your help, rookie, I'd either be a goner or have to use the emergency communication device." She still seemed quite pissed, giving the floor of the Consciousness Space a hard slap.

The slapping sound echoed throughout the entire Consciousness Space.

Xue Dili: "..."

"I was actually close to the final step. If it weren't for this neurotic World Consciousness exposing me, I'd probably have already blended in as the next Violent Dragon God by now. Then I could handle things however I wanted. Sigh, this unreliable World Consciousness…" she muttered, finally remembering to tuck the emergency communication device into her chest.

Xue Dili: "..."

"What is it, rookie? Why do you look troubled?" she asked.

"No, I'm just enjoying the scenery…" Xue Dili turned his head, pretending to admire the scenery in his own Consciousness Space.

It was really a lack of coordination issue. Xue Dili was accustomed to working solo. He had the awareness to exchange information, but upon learning that Little Dragon Lady was a call for help from the World Consciousness, he immediately forgot there was also a teammate undercover this time.

Too many solo runs, forgot this was a team mission.

"However, it's not a big deal. My contingencies should at least give that old dragon a headache for a while. It's not your fault; honestly, I was just saying it for laughs. The original plan was to leave before becoming the Violent Dragon God anyway, otherwise I'd be afraid the ritual of becoming the Violent Dragon God would expose me." She seemed to comfort Xue Dili, acknowledging it wasn't something they could've anticipated.

Xue Dili: "..."

Seems like it really is his fault…

He was so focused on implementing the plan on this side that he forgot to communicate.

Fortunately, he immediately discovered this blunder and quickly used the world's last authority to open the space blockade and rescued the senior. Otherwise, if an accident occurred due to his operational error, he would probably have to release Cursed Blood at full power in this world once again.

Thus, Xue Dili immediately changed the topic, also genuinely interested in the intelligence the senior had gathered, and asked, "What's the situation with the Dragon Race now?"

When it came to serious matters, Olivia also became serious and said, "Although this world's ability to manifest the abstract is suffocating for me, it is undoubtedly a good move. This way, we only need to assist the World Consciousness in defeating the Dragon Race."

"No need to consider other flashy things, nor consider the impact and negatives on this world, because these impacts and negatives will materialize into our tangible enemies. Just do it, in such an emergency situation, being able to think of this method to revive the original terrible situation, it seems there must be some sage guidance." The senior sighed, and only then did she button her open coat properly.

"Uh..." Xue Dili hesitated to speak.

"Alas, the actual situation might be more complex than we imagined. It seems the Dragon Race wants to seize the World Consciousness as a means of resistance and revenge; they want to find an opportunity to explode with one of the Apostles." Following that, Olivia's intelligence information left Xue Dili stunned.

"Revenge?"

"Yes, they are actually a very petty and vengeful race. They resent the leader who enslaved their race and want to remove the slave mark from themselves and explode with their own leader. In short, that's probably their plan..." But Olivia's expression darkened, and she immediately added,

"But that's impossible. If it were those very powerful World Consciousnesses, maybe. But with the weak power and consciousness of this world... This might just be wishful thinking on their part. Even in a native battle, relying on the bonus from World Consciousness, at most, they might just cause a bit of trouble for that Apostle." Olivia immediately voiced her speculative conclusion,

"So, their actions do nothing but bring more suffering to the world, kill a World Consciousness, and also bring death and disaster to the world's natives. Their vision is really too narrow; they really think that relying on the World Consciousness, they can arm-wrestle with the senior Apostles in the Mist Council..."

She kept complaining, while Xue Dili was pouring with sweat on the side.

He also didn't know about this. If he had been unaware, he might have considered trying to crush a Tier Five enemy together with the World Consciousness.

Looking at it now, this might be unrealistic. It's best to take notes to avoid stepping into the same pit in the future.

"So, just continue following this world's plan..." Olivia's face immediately showed many shadows and onomatopoeia, she said, "We just need to find a way and beat that Zombie Dragon that symbolizes the stolen World Consciousness!"

"Right, I'll open a Teleportation Gate, go back and call for reinforcements..." She immediately thought of her next plan, which should have someone stationed at the branch ready to provide support anytime, so as long as her luck isn't too bad, support troops should be available.

Once reinforcements are gathered, everything will be fine.

Xue Dili also breathed a sigh of relief.

The senior is so reliable, directly calling for reinforcements. That way, he wouldn't even need to resort to Plan B and play for keeps; just wait for the Interstellar Corps to join the battle.

However, Olivia's face suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?" Xue Dili immediately asked.

"The entire world's space has been locked down, and not only that, even communication is blocked. This is something the Dragon Race accomplished using the world authority. Except for the emergency communication device, it seems we have no means to contact the outside world..." She looked at Xue Dili in this way, then took out the emergency communication device from her chest again.

"Should we use it?" At this moment, she also began to hesitate.

If it had been an emergency without time to think, she might have just used it and left future regrets to her future self.

But now, without that urgent need, her hand trembled, completely unsure if this situation counted as an emergency, or whether she should use it...

It was also her first time, troubled over whether to use this.

Olivia hesitated for a long time but eventually put the communication device back in her chest, lacking the courage to decide to use it.

"Senior, why is this emergency communication device so precious, is it made using materials from the Venerable King Fragment?" Xue Dili asked his question.

Olivia was taken aback, then she smiled and said, "It does relate a bit to the Venerable King. The principle of the emergency communication device is to contact our headquarters' 'Simulated Venerable King', and through the abilities of the Simulated Venerable King, instantly transcend space and time to communicate with everyone and provide coordinates..."

"It's just that, contacting the Simulated Venerable King comes with a small price..." She seemed embarrassed, saying, "The Simulated Venerable King is like a virtual world, or you could say it's our organization's 'Pure Land' or 'Netherworld', where only seniors who have completely perished are laid to rest..."

"So the principle of the emergency communication device is that a senior consciousness, originally resting in the Mimic Venerable King, agrees to help the juniors, thus placing part of their consciousness into it."

"And activating the emergency communication device causes this portion of consciousness to completely extinguish, allowing the Mimic Venerable King to detect the extinction in 0.001 seconds, bypassing the lengthy cosmos, disregarding space blockade, and immediately sending out an urgent SOS to everyone..."

She seemed to awkwardly laugh, "When this plan was proposed, 90% of the people voted against it, but the Heroic Spirits inside the Mimic Venerable King forcefully passed this decision."

"They said, 'The living must be more important than us dead'. She seemed slightly embarrassed to share this intelligence with Xue Dili, who was half an outsider, and immediately added,

"So we're all prepared; unless absolutely necessary, it can't be used. But, as the seniors said, the living should be more important than the dead, so we have to use it when it needs to be used... In the worst case, if I'm unfortunate in the future, if I'm able to enter the Mimic Venerable King after death, I too will join the emergency communication device."

"After all, if after death, I can still bring hope to my juniors to survive, thinking like that, it's not a big deal for part of the consciousness to be extinguished."
