Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

Page 313

In order to fight against demons, to protect those they cherish, and to protect the innocent masses, humans created 'demon hunters' and breathing techniques that grant demon hunters physical abilities comparable to those of cannibals.

As for the main storyline of Demon Slayer, Chen Anxia basically remembered it all.

The protagonist of Demon Slayer is a charcoal-selling boy named Tanjiro Kamado.

Originally, Tanjiro Kamado lived a simple yet happy daily life with his family deep in the mountains.

But all of this changed drastically on the day his family was attacked by Muzan Kibutsuji.

On that day, Tanjiro Kamado not only suffered the pain of his mother and four younger siblings being brutally murdered, but also the fact that his only surviving sister, Nezuko Kamado, had become a cannibal.

Afterwards, guided by Giyu Tomioka, one of the nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps who arrived at the scene, he embarked on a journey to become a Demon Slayer, to avenge Muzan Kibutsuji, and to find a way to turn his younger sister Nezuko Kamado back into a human.

The Demon Slayer Corps is an organization composed of demon slayers, and the Pillars are the pillars that support the Demon Slayer Corps; they are the nine swordsmen who hold the highest positions.

Giyu Tomioka is the Water Pillar, one of the nine Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.

......

As Chen Anxia recalled the various plot points of "Demon Slayer," her emotions couldn't help but fluctuate.

Chen Anxia never expected that she would learn about the world she lived in under such circumstances.

Most importantly, based on the current situation, the world I have transmigrated to should be the player world corresponding to the world of "Demon Slayer", namely the 4th Realm of Truth.

No wonder Chen Anxia couldn't find any players.

Because in the Realm of Truth No. 4, anyone can become a player, including Chen Anxia himself.

That's right, it's the players.

Chen Anxia knew that his world mission was probably related to "Demon Slayer".

Chen Anxia never expected that she would become a player this time.

After becoming a player, Chen Anxia was no longer able to issue tasks to players and get them to help him with things, as he had done before.

This is clearly an inconvenience.

However, there are also advantages. Back in the Conan world, Chen Anxia already knew that the biggest advantage of players is their ability to communicate through the system's thought network.

This method of communication through a systematic network of thought is no different from supernatural powers like clairvoyance, clairaudience, and telepathy for the original inhabitants of Demon Slayer. If used correctly, its effects will be extraordinary.

In addition, players have another advantage: they can return to their own world.

Although this can only be used when there are no indigenous people around, there is no denying that if used well, this ability will become a powerful weapon.

Having experienced the previous three time travels, Chen Anxia naturally wouldn't simply assume that "Demon Slayer" was just an ordinary game world.

Therefore, the player's systemic thinking network, as well as the ability to return to the Fourth Realm of Truth, are both necessary for Chen Anxia.

Currently, there is still one month until the official launch of the Demon Slayer game.

During this month, Chen Anxia must make ample preparations.

The world of Demon Slayer can be said to be the first world with extraordinary power that Chen Anxia has encountered, which contains endless crises and opportunities.

The crisis naturally came from cannibals.

Although Chen Anxia is known as a "martial arts giant" in the world of Detective Conan and possesses physical abilities beyond those of ordinary people.

However, due to a lack of intuitive data, Chen Anxia still doesn't know whether his power is stronger or weaker than that of an ordinary man-eating demon in the world of "Demon Slayer".

Not to mention that above ordinary cannibals there are cannibals with the ability of 'Blood Demon Art', and even above them are the Twelve Demon Moons and the progenitor of demons - Muzan Kibutsuji.

As for the opportunities, they are naturally the Breathing Technique that would allow humans to possess physical abilities comparable to those of cannibals, and the blood of Muzan Kibutsuji.

While Muzan Kibutsuji's blood can cause humans to mutate and become cannibalistic monsters, it cannot be denied that his blood has many other wonderful uses.

The treatment of incurable diseases is secondary; what Chen Anxia truly values ​​is that Muzan Kibutsuji's blood can grant immortality.

Chen Anxia would not allow himself to become a cannibal, but he could collect Muzan Kibutsuji's blood for use in the research institute, just like APTX4869 in the Conan world.

In addition, Chen Anxia was also very interested in the Gate of Truth game company and wanted to investigate it to see if he could find out any information.

Of course, all of that is still a long way off. Right now, there is a problem that Chen Anxia must solve: the money to buy a game console.

Clearly, Chen Anxia's own money was insufficient to purchase a gaming terminal.

Therefore, Chen Anxia needs to earn enough money within this month.

If this were in the first world, Chen Anxia might have been very troubled by it.

But after traversing three worlds, Chen Anxia was confident that he could earn enough money in a short period of time.

Time flies, and before we knew it, Demon Slayer had launched its servers.

At Chen Anxia's home, Chen Anxia lay down inside the holographic ecological game pod, slowly closed his eyes at the moment the server opened, and whispered, "Link start!"

......

Chapter 473 The Eye of Analysis (Incomplete), A Game You Can't Exit! (Please Subscribe!)

After the connection was established, Chen Anxia felt as if her consciousness had passed through a colorful channel composed entirely of data.

Time seems to pass in an instant, yet it also seems to last forever.

When Chen Anxia opened her eyes again, she saw a sea of ​​wisteria flowers radiating a faint glow under the moonlight and the light of the roadside stone lanterns.

Beautiful, like a scene from a painting, that was Chen Anxia's first impression of the sea of ​​wisteria flowers before her.

Before Chen Anxia could react, she heard exclamations of amazement coming from all around her.

"So beautiful!"

"It's like a scene straight out of a blockbuster movie!"

"Is this what a holographic virtual game is? The visuals are so realistic, it's truly amazing!"

"I can actually smell the wisteria blossoms so realistically! The tactile simulation in this holographic virtual game is just too real!"

"Not only the sight and smell, but also the touch and hearing are exactly the same as in the real world. If I didn't know that this was a game, I would probably think that I had traveled to a real world."

......

Hearing the exclamations of surprise coming from around him, Chen Anxia looked around and saw that there were roughly twenty players around him.

According to Chen Anxia's analysis, these players were both male and female, and their ages were generally between 15 and 18.

The youngest was a 12-year-old girl with short hair, wearing a blue and white tracksuit, who looked dashing and spirited. The oldest was a 32-year-old young man with a delicate, scholarly face but a strong physique, wearing gym clothes.

Chen Anxia was able to know their exact ages because after submitting the world mission in the Conan world, he received a new ability as a system reward - the Eye of Analysis (incomplete).

According to the system's explanation, the Eye of Analysis (not fully realized) can analyze things and transform them into precise data.

Chen Anxia has conducted experiments and found that the Eye of Analysis (incomplete) can analyze human anatomy, age, martial arts skills, talent, and so on.

In addition, Chen Anxia also discovered that the speed at which the Eye of Analysis (incomplete) analyzes things is related to the amount of data in the things themselves.

In other words, the more data a thing has, and the more complex the data, the slower the parsing speed will be.

A person's age, for example, doesn't contain a lot of data, so Chen Anxia could analyze it almost at a glance.

As for the incompleteness of the annotation following the analysis of the eye, that is also easy to understand.

In Chen Anxia's view, this should mean that the Eye of Analysis reward from the system is not the complete version.

This also means that the incomplete Eye of Analysis must have certain limitations, but Chen Anxia is currently unaware of these limitations, or rather, has not yet encountered them.

Chen Anxia also knew that if he completed the hidden mission in the Conan world, he would likely be able to obtain the complete version of the Eye of Analysis.

Chen Anxia did not regret this. Rather than spending countless hours in the Conan world to obtain the complete version of the Eye of Analysis, he would rather use that time to travel through more worlds.

Perhaps the reward for the next world quest will be the complete Eye of Analysis.

Moreover, at this stage, the Eye of Analysis (not fully developed) is sufficient for Chen Anxia.

......

While Chen Anxia was sizing up the players around him, the players around him were also sizing each other up.

During this process, someone asked, "Is this the first scene of the game? What should we do next?"

After hearing this question, some players responded.

"According to the game's background description, this is a completely free world with no specific main quest; everything depends on the player's own exploration."

"This is the first time I've played a game with no main storyline and complete freedom. I really don't know where to start."

"The game is called Demon Slayer. Does that mean there are 'demons' in the game?"

"I am also concerned about this, but there is too little information available to draw any specific conclusions."

"I think the existence of 'ghosts' is certain, but it's hard to say what kind of 'ghost' it is."

"Hiss, why do I suddenly feel that the atmosphere around me has become eerie and terrifying?"

"Me too, let's not talk about 'ghosts' anymore, shall we?"

"Don't worry, although the starting location for players is random, according to the normal game settings, our starting location should be the newbie safe zone."

"In other words, even if 'ghosts' really exist in this world, they absolutely cannot invade our place."

"That's right, we can use this beginner safe zone as a base and slowly explore outwards..."

......

Chen Anxia did not participate in the discussions among the players, but instead carefully observed the surrounding environment.

In Chen Anxia's memory, the only place in "Demon Slayer" with such a large wisteria flower field should be Tengxi Mountain.

If this really is Tengxi Mountain, then the situation is not good.

It's important to know that in "Demon Slayer," Mount Fujisaki is the place where the final test for Demon Slayers is conducted, and Mount Fujisaki is home to demons captured and imprisoned by Demon Slayers throughout the ages.

The reason why Tengxi Mountain can become a prison for ghosts is because of the huge sea of ​​wisteria flowers that surrounds Tengxi Mountain.

Because the demon dislikes wisteria flowers, once imprisoned here, it cannot escape.

Of course, if a demon's strength reaches a certain level, it is not impossible for it to resist the habit of disliking wisteria flowers and thus escape the wisteria flower sea.

However, the demons in Tengxi Mountain are mostly weak demons, prepared for the final assessment of demon hunters. They are simply unable to resist the habit of hating wisteria flowers.

Therefore, just as those players analyzed, this sea of ​​wisteria flowers should be absolutely safe for players who have just arrived.

But once you leave the wisteria flower field, things might change.
