Chapter 18: Clown Evans
Bai Cangshu whistled softly; this Purple Drop Card gave him an unexpected surprise.
He had actually obtained both an extremely precious 【Silver Plot Equipment】 and a minor divine skill from the early stages of the Dragon Ball World, the 【Dodonpa】, all at once.
Although the Dodon Ray does not have as terrifying an absolute destructive power as the Kamehameha, its penetrating power is extremely strong, and it is also superior in terms of the Qi used and the flexibility of the move.
When it comes down to it, the various abilities of the Dragon Ball World are ultimately built upon the strength of 【Qi】.
And moves like 【Kamehameha】, 【Dodon Ray】, 【Destructo Disc】, and 【Special Beam Cannon】 are able to release a Martial Artist's 【Qi】 in an extremely condensed form, thereby causing several times the damage.
As the ultimate technique of the Crane School, the Dodon Ray discards the charging time and terrifying scale of the Kamehameha, instead being full of agility and condensed power.
In Bai Cangshu's view, it is certainly an outstanding skill.
However, it is a pity that the threshold for this ability is indeed not low; it not only requires a certain level of Martial Artist proficiency but also specifically requires 【Mastery of Qi Sense】 and an 【Energy】 value of no less than 15.
Bai Cangshu placed this rare ultimate technique into his Backpack.
Afterwards, he looked toward the position of the room door that he had "illusioned" into a dormitory, walked over in a few steps, and twisted the doorknob.
【You may return to the real world by pulling the door inward, or enter the Infinite Dimension Public Space by pushing the door outward.】
【Please note, the time you have remaining to stay in the Infinite Dimension Space is: 1 hour, 55 minutes, 34 seconds】 (Stay time increases according to the Reincarnator's Rating; once the time reaches zero, you will be automatically returned to the real world.)
In other words, from the perspective of this space, the time a Reincarnator stays in this space is actually a type of resource? Seeing this prompt, Bai Cangshu immediately and keenly realized that Reincarnators going to the so-called "Infinite Dimension Public Space" is actually beneficial.
Therefore, he had originally prepared to return to reality to deal with the investigation by that overly vigilant Song Jingguan.
He actually knew that the information his phone received, as well as his behavior of leaving school yesterday, could certainly be found if the authorities were determined to do so.
He had also already prepared countermeasures.
It was just that the miraculous nature of the things Chu Qi left behind still exceeded Bai Cangshu's imagination; they were actually not some special contraband or storage cards containing classified information that could not be made public.
Instead, it was an 【Infinite Dimension Adventure】 that could completely overturn an ordinary person's worldview.
Bai Cangshu pushed hard, and the room door was instantly pushed open. A large amount of light flooded in for an instant, and the next moment, when Bai Cangshu opened his eyes again, he had already appeared on a neat flagstone road.
【You have entered the Infinite Dimension Public Space; you may return to your Private Space via your thoughts from anywhere in this space.】
【The space has performed a basic concealment of your image; this service is free of charge.】
Bai Cangshu, wearing the pink Tao Baibai robe, stood on this flagstone road that was probably over ten meters wide, instantly attracting quite a bit of attention.
Bai Cangshu was also observing others at this time; these people should all be 【Reincarnators】, and everyone was dressed quite exaggeratedly.
Some carried giant swords, some were dressed like samurai, and there were also some floating in the air;
The outfits were bizarre and strange, and their hair colors were even more colorful.
Bai Cangshu guessed that this was probably also some kind of disguised image, just as if these Reincarnators had all "sculpted a face" to survive in the space.
A flash of light appeared in his hand, and the sleek revolver appeared. Through the smooth and bright gun barrel, he saw that his own image was wrapped in a layer of black mist.
After pondering slightly, Bai Cangshu understood that if it were only to conceal one's true identity and appearance, then this type of disguise provided by the space was sufficient.
But the reason Reincarnators have to "sculpt a face" to disguise themselves is to let others be able to remember what they look like.
In this public space, a Reincarnator must not only disguise their true identity and appearance from the real world but also have a Reincarnator appearance that can be remembered by others.
Only in this way will a Reincarnator possess an "identity," and whether it is trading with others or establishing trust, bonds, and other connections, everything can be concretely anchored to a specific appearance. "Yo, this newcomer looks quite full of personality!"
A flippant voice suddenly sounded from beside Bai Cangshu. Bai Cangshu turned his head and saw a man wearing a red suit and green shirt who had appeared behind him at some unknown time.
Seeing Bai Cangshu notice him, the man took off his top hat and bowed elegantly, but also revealed the clown makeup on his face.
"Clown?"
The corners of the clown's mouth split open; that mouth painted bright red looked exceptionally huge after splitting.
"Clown Evans of the Peng Hu East District at your service, noble new Reincarnator sir."
At this time, several Reincarnators with faces obscured by mist similar to Bai Cangshu's appeared out of thin air on this flagstone road. These people were all wearing ordinary clothes and were indeed not as outstanding as Bai Cangshu.
But there were also a few who immediately went up to meet them.
The clown who called himself "Evans" clearly understood what Bai Cangshu was thinking. With a turn of his body, he backflipped behind Bai Cangshu, blocking Bai Cangshu's line of sight and also implicitly blocking the intentions of others to approach.
"Clown Evans, like those few hounds, is just an incompetent Reincarnator who can only earn a little 【Consultation Fee】 in this newcomer area."
The clown demeaned and humiliated himself to the extreme, but there was still a brilliant smile on his face.
This was probably also an alternative type of "tour guide" or "broker," specifically targeting Reincarnators like himself who had just entered the space.
And the basis for the judgment was that only these new Reincarnators would choose the method of using black mist to cover their faces to disguise themselves.
Bai Cangshu's eyes flickered; his intuition told him that this habitual way of thinking might be exploited by some people.
"Alright, Mr. Clown, I am indeed a new Reincarnator, so may I ask how you charge?"
Bai Cangshu was not a person who was stingy with spending, and he also needed to use this to determine how much purchasing power the 5750 Dimension Points he obtained in the Trial World actually possessed.
The clown's smile became even more brilliant. His body was very agile; he did another backflip and caught his hat in mid-air, bowing as he landed in one smooth motion.
This person, perhaps, was not as pathetic as he described himself to be.
Bai Cangshu judged so in his heart.
Clown Evans held up five fingers, and then, under Bai Cangshu's calm gaze, snapped his little finger and ring finger.
Crack!
"300 Dimension Points, sir. Clown Evans does not cheat the young or the old!"
Bai Cangshu nodded calmly, accepting this price. He had no interest in investigating whether the clown's action of snapping his own fingers was a deterrent or a magic trick.
He had always believed that people who could enter this space should all be like him, more or less out of place with ordinary people.
For such people, whatever they did was to be expected.
Evans's ears twitched. The new Reincarnator before him had actually not shown even a trace of fluctuation in his heartbeat or breathing after seeing his "performance."
He smiled even more brilliantly, his mouth corners seeming as if they had been torn open.
It seems today's divination was correct; this is an extraordinary newcomer, a rare and plump big fish!
