Chapter 1806: with translation of chapter title

NO. 421: Wow, what a great opportunity!

The exam that Chinese people value most in their lives is the gaokao—this was something Bi Ze originally told Aomo himself; frankly, it's not much different from the East Flame people in Aomo's impression, so he believed it.

How did it turn out?

Someone even forgot that the gaokao is next month.

Clearly the gaokao is in June, yet he still had to come to the beach for vacation; Aomo had previously thought he was just staying for a couple of days. After all, even staying two days is a bit excessive, but expecting Bi Ze to tie on a 'hardworking' headband and desperately cram—this itself isn't very realistic.

But you still have to study what needs studying, right?

The gaokao papers for transmigrators are much easier than the locals', so don't use 'it's hard to get back to senior year status' as an excuse—there are plenty of transmigrators who get good scores!

Upon hearing such talk, Bi Ze would often grit his teeth and angrily scold those 'grind dogs' who ruined the environment for transmigrators like them, but nowadays, this talk no longer has any basis.

Because he directly said something even more outrageous:

Damn it, with a crisis in the digital world looming, why bother with the gaokao?! I'm going to save the world!!

He's already said all that; what else can you do?

You can only comply.

Although I've always hoped to give my brother a lift, hoping he'd make progress, preferably rediscover some childhood dream or something, but when my brother directly says his childhood dream is to save the world, I'm left speechless.

Do whatever you want, but you can only rely on the Federation's social safety net and transmigrator employment assistance policies, as well as the Federation's own job diversity options.

Academic credentials are certainly important, but if you have low expectations, there are plenty of job directions.

Anyway, his girlfriend is even an android, with low maintenance and consumption costs; as long as he's not trying to fake ability by puffing himself up, if he learns some female-oriented style to indulge in a pampered lifestyle, his quality of life won't drop much.

After all, this person has some savings under my guidance.

Moreover, he's gotten on track in the Magic Staff field, which also means more employment options.

After all, this is the Magic Staff: you can swap different magic systems at any time, serving as a vocational foundation for fields like construction, logistics, security, etc.; one-key macro debugging solves most problems, and the remaining adaptation issues are minuscule thresholds, not worth mentioning.

So let's set aside this Mr. Bi who seems to get feverish and then go crazy for now, and talk about his partner, a demon-human-type Digimon still in the Hei'an region.

Yes, demon-human type.

Apart from the Holy Beast. Fallen Form, which is an outlier among Perfect-level beings, Mega-level can be said to be limited to the Ultimate level specifications; as a Perfect-level, Barbaromon. X is merely a Digimon of the demon-human type specification.

However, in the systematic Digimon knowledge compiled by the Federation research community, the 'type' category is not highly valued; people talk more about finer classifications like Vaccine, Virus, and Data species, which are racial bases, and they continually update the Digimon encyclopedia for those subgroups.

By contrast, concepts like Mega, Demon-Human, Avatar, and Beast types belong to 'clearly existing and not low in presence, but lacking significant research or reference value,' so they're neglected as marginal states.

They can only be mentioned in some specific niche research, and invariably provoke these researchers' complaints: 'Damn, the data is hard to find!'; 'Why hasn't anyone compiled it?'; 'Why does a concept that existed from the start have no reference records?';

And so on...

Full of resentment over the citation segment where they can't come up with a few book title marks.

But you can't really skip this, can you?

Digimon with a research spirit can't avoid this when pursuing macroscopic self-knowledge.

And when trying to answer the question, 'In the fusion of human and Mega-type Digimon data, where reference materials are equally scarce, what is the relatively stable time limit?' a demon-human seeking an answer also needs to take into account this rare and special Digimon model.

This is like trying to derive reference-worthy data from 'the endurance time and performance of different occupational groups facing the same harsh survival environment.'

Although the precision won't be high, and frankly, family composition and childhood circumstances are actually more worth researching and have higher priority.

But most people's occupations indeed deeply influence their current living conditions and personality.

This influence on humans is deeper than it appears, more subtle and pervasive; for Digimon, it's the personality written into their bones.

Beast-type Digimon inevitably commit beast-like atrocities (Grand Draculamon is a Beast-type).

Mega-type Digimon necessarily have the potential to become a Demon Lord; given the chance, they can seize the crown.

Mini-Demon types need no elaboration—factory models like Miniyokomon are always nasty kids, and only through postnatal experience can they show slight personality differences.

The Digimon 'type' is akin to the human abstract notion of a 'soul'; they innately value it greatly, and any conflict makes them feel awkward, ashamed, or even listless and dazed.

Rather than saying Aomo and Barbaromon. X are similar people, it's because Aomo Lindun consistently follows the conduct befitting a demon-human image, thus resonating with demon-human-type Digimon.

Thus, from this point, although Barbaromon. X longs for pure freedom from the Digimon framework, it also gains its own 'unfreedom' in the process.

In what should have become completely different from his past self, he actually retained some things he deemed unnecessary to change, and that happens to be part of his digital core data.

Barbaromon. X sometimes reflects, wondering if it's not really seeking escape but, like before, pursuing a kind of 'strength'.

A desire to be 'stronger than before,' merely redirected: from 'stronger combat power than before' to 'a strength that satisfies oneself more.'

Freedom isn't necessarily about escaping everything present; it's a right to choose.

Because you can choose otherwise even amid rejection and conflict, it appears as 'freedom'.

And yet, by choosing a path that appears unfree in this process, could that also be considered a kind of freedom?

He is thinking.

He feels he has an answer to this question, but also feels it could be easily overturned, so his thinking hasn't stopped.

Regardless of how long his thinking lasts or what answer he arrives at, it doesn't hinder his behavior, which has already outpaced thought, from making a choice.

He said to his partner: 'I've made up my mind.'

Leaving aside the later advice about 'you don't have to follow me,' the point is clearly the moment when the partner transmitted Aomo Lindun's information—namely, that the Holy Beast. Fallen Form appeared in the Beast Cult and showed a tendency to rely on the cult's resources and technology.

He made the decision solely because of the timing revealed by that statement.

Admittedly, that could also be a facade, an act, or a future twist that leads Aomo Lindun to misjudge.

But his keen sense of smell is already buzzing.

Saying: 'This is the opportunity.'

Demon-human-type Digimon are always like this.

They won't let any possible opportunity slip by.
