Chapter 397: NO.160 Opponents Always Understand Each Other (Monthly Ticket Bonus)

Why are you in such a hurry to quit? I was actually planning to chat with you about that place.

At the edge of the underground arena of the sanatorium, Aomo had just taken off the device on his forehead and risen from the recliner when the terminal light screen automatically appeared, and the image of the red-clothed witch sprang onto it.

Chat about what?

He glanced at the three recliners still running and realized those three hadn't followed him in exiting the connection; although Aomo was glad to take it easy, he also had nothing to say about this lack of vigilance.

This might be the confidence of a renowned horse girl.

A horse girl with impressive results can match the weight of a knight's kick from the knight's stable with the gold content of her leg kick; to take advantage of someone's danger, one must first weigh it.

Only Aomo, the trainer whose thinking has become mercenary-like, would subconsciously consider vigilance and safety.

Even an ordinary criminal who wants to commit a crime wouldn't seek out this kind of horse girl who's appeared on TV too many times.

Having appeared on TV too many times ≈ impressive record ≈ strong strength.

The domain of horse girls can fully apply this approximate equation; horse girls who become famous for other reasons are ultimately a tiny minority.

However, aside from the domain of horse girls……

Aomo turned his head and looked toward the distant public arena from the windowsill.

There, the large-scale confrontation of the battle royale type continues, and the presence of what seems to be some kind of native extraterrestrial giant beast appears to be a test for the players.

Without a player name label above its head, it is violently charging forward in a lack of planning.

At the same time, he indeed saw the digital athletes with ordinary human physiques—while they were mutually opposing, they were also attacking that giant beast.

In this obvious melee, the giant beast's painful roar proves their strength more than any display, and the cheers from the audience surge like waves.

Truly, hidden tigers and dragons…… he couldn't help but sigh.

Because he didn't know those people at all.

Although one cannot rule out that it's a disguise like changing faces, Canaan City is indeed an unfamiliar city, so it's no surprise that some local or even foreign strong strangers exist.

This exclamation also suffices to describe this circle, after all the federation's population base is there, and it continues to conduct interstellar visits.

The process of importing talent from extraterrestrials has been running all along.

Although they are all extraterrestrials, since they can obtain residency rights on Earth, it proves their spiritual and cultural closeness to humanity.

Stronger than a certain high school repeater who is spiritually very alien.

Is this what you're concerned about? You should think about the foundation of the whole arena!!

A certain witch was somewhat annoyed, but Aomo didn't really understand what she was angry about.

Am I someone who likes to get to the bottom of things? — Although I'd like to say that, it's rare to hear the other party so excited.

Aomo still somewhat indirectly said: 'Do you think I had the mind to do those just now?'

Going from not being interested to having no time to do it, although it's the same kind of perfunctoriness, the feeling is always different.

He is a trainer, not a programmer, because upon seeing an extremely realistic online world he'd want to dig into the underlying code—such things are usually only possible for some newcomers who have transmigrated.

But for locals, the deep-infiltration system games and training software released up to now have long since ceased to be worth boasting about their realism, let alone being strange.

However, upon further reflection.

Most digital beasts that have long stayed in the Digital World, when they first touch the data surface and make contact with the real world, are not much different from transmigrants.

In that case, it can also be considered understandable.

Although ordinary digital beasts also don't care about the world's composition, just as transmigrants rarely prioritize air quality or water differences.

That is the domain of professionals.

But the mage group among digital beasts is generally like the researchers among transmigrants.

After all, the 'magic' they master is essentially advanced code that is part of the Digital World's foundational architecture.

So what did you discover?

Perfunctory attempts got no response; after thinking carefully about the other's fickle temperament, Aomo gave it some thought and still took the initiative to ask.

A big discovery!

You see, the response has come.

The Witch Beast has a bit more childlike heartiness compared to the Belst Beast, even to the point of being willful.

The temperament of horse girls needs to be maintained, while the willfulness of digital beasts is a setting.

Engraved into the data core, it is hard to shake off.

Aomo occasionally wonders why the Baal Beast X is so concerned about free armor, and it's not necessarily because he wants to evolve into some kind of armor body.

But rather tries to shake off this rule that, for digital beasts, is as habitual as an iron law.

Having an emotion that won't be forcibly twisted, and being able to master skills according to one's own nature—this is taken for granted by real-world creatures, but for digital beasts it is a luxury.

The breakthrough in this regard either lies in a human partner who possesses the ancient relic badge, or in having the power to strike the data core, rewrite its contents without destroying the core.

Aomo only thinks this is theoretically possible, due to lack of research data, and the Baal Beast X has never opened up to him, so this is merely a thought.

The early digital hacking group known as the Breaking Team accumulated a lot of research data, which includes a large amount of inhumane digital beast experiments.

But even in their data there is no record of similar things.

Perhaps the digital spirit is indeed hard to grasp; that thing belongs to the occult of the Digital World.

Just like the badge, sometimes it actively seeks its owner, sometimes it's merely a vague legend, and no one knows what kind of owner-seeking mechanism it is.

Or perhaps, ah, the digital spirit is extremely precious; we should first let digital beasts undergo evolution experiments rather than use it for framework breakthroughs……

Speculation without evidence is always boundless; Aomo gathered his thoughts and looked at the Witch Beast that popped out directly via the indoor big screen, feigning seriousness as he asked: 'What kind of big discovery?'

It's very close to the nature of the Digital World! The so-called game space you reached through that machine can already be considered another layer of the Digital World!!

He acted with utmost seriousness, even showing body language that increased emphasis; the Witch Beast's level of attention made Aomo feel a certain kind of intergenerational gap between species.

——He simply didn't understand what there was to get excited about.

He even felt that some games Molisen has played could fit her definition.

But as an experienced observer, he clearly knows how offensive rash remarks across industries can be.

That restrained, annoyed communicative posture was also something he liked to see—mainly waiting for the observed person to stand up and throw two punches at the other party.

We'll produce: 【61】 That restrained, displeased manner of interacting was also a look he used to like, mainly about waiting for the moment when the person being observed would stand up and throw two punches at the other party.

Checking if we missed any nuance: the phrase "mainly about waiting..." could be interpreted as "mainly about waiting...". Good.

To swap that 'other party' for oneself? No, thank you.

We'll produce: 【62】 To replace that "other party" with myself, I must politely decline.

But exposing one's ignorance isn't really a big deal.

【63】 However, exposing my ignorance doesn't really matter.

'Do Digimon also have a Columbus‑like pioneer's honor?' he asked.

【64】 "Do Digimon also have an explorer's honor like Columbus?" he asked.

'No, but there is honor that can be recorded! It can even be listed in the exhibition room of the Wikelni Library!'

【65】 "No, but there is honor that can be recorded! It can even be listed in the display room roster of the Weichelni Library."

So it's still such a scholarly pursuit...

【66】 So it's still such a scholar's pursuit…

Aumu had no desire for historical fame; hearing that, he felt even more indifferent.

【67】 Aomo had no pursuit of leaving his name in history; hearing that, he felt nothing.

'So, have you explored the nearby area? Any monsters or the like?'

【68】 "Have you explored the surroundings? Any monsters or the like?"

'Monsters? Seems there are some.'

【69】 "Monsters? It seems there are some."

「？」

【70】 "?"

'I explore the data fissures along the border, and I can see many peculiarly shaped monster sculptures outside the world, like trash heaps.'

【71】 "I explored the boundary's data fissures and could see many strangely shaped monster sculptures outside the world, like piles of trash."

'There are even building complexes and humans very similar to your real world.'

【72】 "There even are building complexes and people very similar to your real world."

「？」

【73】 "?"

'What are you two talking about?' Suddenly a voice cut into the conversation—it was Rhiamazon, who had just pushed herself up, looking puzzled at Aumu, who had empty hands.

【74】 "What are you two talking about?" Suddenly breaking into the conversation, the voice belonged to Ling Yamasun, who had just sat up, looking puzzled at the empty-handed Aomo.

'Didn't you say you were going to get a drink?'

【75】 "Didn't you say you were going to get water?"

'Are you still working on an electronic‑flow monster graveyard outside this arena? Miss Tony, could you turn off the data shielding for me?'

【76】 "Are you still working on an electronic-stream monster graveyard outside this arena? Miss Tony, could you turn off the data shielding for me?"

It wasn't just her who got up; the other two horse girls also woke up one after another.

【77】 It wasn't just her getting up; the other two horse girls also woke up one after another.

Narita Hakuji's gaze returned to normal, with a strong personal style of aloofness.

【78】 Chengtian Bai Ren's gaze became normal again, with a strong personal style of aloofness.

'Okay.'

【79】 "Okay."

Aumu spoke with a somewhat joking smile, then activated his terminal light screen.

【80】 Aomo smiled with a hint of joking, then activated his own terminal light screen.

At that moment, his smile also became somewhat stiff.

【81】 At this moment, his smile also became somewhat stiff.

4 unread messages, 3 missed calls, by jun chuan jiang sheng.

【82】 4 unread messages, 3 missed calls, by JunChuan JiangSheng.

6 missed calls, 7 unread messages, by bicui keshi. shihuaiya.

【83】 6 missed calls, 7 unread messages, by Bixiketuxe·Shihuaiya.

There are also several inquiry status messages from the Angel and Mosutima.

Sorry, I need to hurry back to my post to check, you three.

Without hesitation, as a dedicated pioneer, Aomo was still more concerned about the work situation.

Eh? Should I see you off?

Amazon felt the terrain here was rather complex.

No need, just return the way we came. Well then, you three, goodbye.

Having said that, he vanished instantly on the spot, which made Tony and Bianca's expressions subtle.

Meanwhile, Amazon was merely a bit surprised, turning to look at Bai Ren: "He can still do that?"

Perhaps it's newly mastered.

Narita Bai Ren lacked interest.

Compared to teleportation ability, it's the demonized running that can hold her gaze.

Speaking of which, do you want the previous match recordings?

Let's keep it as a memento; indeed, you're quite a special trainer, and both of your running styles have analytical value.

You're about to retire, yet your thinking is still so active, Bai Ren, what about you?

I... give it to me, I also want to refer to it.

Planning to return to the field?
