Chapter 362: Battle of the Toys (16)

Chapter 362 Battle of the Toys 16

"Achoo!" Xiao Tan’s sneeze... caused his whole person to jump into the air. "What’s going on? Soulie is cursing me behind my back again..."

"Well, someone not only used a common tone to describe what has happened to him but manage to point out clearly who is behind it..." Feng Bujue’s mockery was always ready.

At that moment, they were both standing at one of the corners of the Lego City, waiting for the Musashi Koganei to piece together the Lego vehicle. This was the second time Feng Bujue summoned this fella. The first time was in South Park.

Before he left the sandbox, to not waste the cooldown of the skill, Brother Jue once used this summoning skill then and had some brief communication with this summoned character.

Overall, Musashi Koganei looked like a primary school student from a gag comic. His head was an inverted triangle, with a sharp chin and wide face. He had on a pair of glasses that covered most of his face. His upper body wore a yellow short-sleeved T-shirt, and the lower body was a pair of purple shorts. There were also two red suspenders. A pair of eye-catching red-colored socks were covering his feet and his collar had a green color base tie with a lot of purple polka dots...

The first time he appeared in his source material was... his teacher asked him to write down in name in kanji but he stood up with absolute confidence and said, "I, Musashi Koganei, am a strange primary three student who does not know how to write kanji that has more than six strokes."

But actually... he was a veritable genius. His answer was aimed to get the prejudice, condescension, and hatred from his teacher and classmates... to make other people believe that he was a strange person (a hentai).

Based on Musashi’s own analysis—99 percent of great people throughout history were treated as strange people and ostracized when they were young. Since Musashi’s goal was to become a great person, for that to happen, he would first become a strange person.

Compelled by this logic, Musashi Koganei was unwavering in his journey toward hentai-ness. When he was walking or just standing, his hands would naturally be raised before him like he was about to strike someone at the next moment. When he spoke, he used this weird drawl and would elicit this ’tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk’ chuckle. When he successfully acted weird and caused people around him to roll their eyes or just catch their attention, he would experience a sense of thrill. Sometimes, his body would spin on its own like a car tire...

Mr. Akira Tokiyama once designed a five-level game of hentai-ness in the sixth book of Arale. They were respectively... The stage of Suppaman: Use your brave little pointing finger and poke it inside the butthole of the person next to you; The stage of King of the Jungle, Parzan, open the window and yell out ’Ah’ three times loudly; the stage of Ice Cream: jump around while screaming ’poop, poop’; the stage of Professor Monster: Scream out loud ’combination’ and then crawl into another person’s embrace; The stage of King Nikochan: Stuff balls of cotton into your nose and puff them out. After you have completed all these five missions, you are an ’undeniable’ hentai.

Using this standard... Musashi Koganei was an unsalvageable, uncurable hentai.

In conclusion... this was one hell of a summoned creature. The summoning requirement, of doing ’one strange action’ was quite strange in itself. But other than that, he was of no help in battle because his fighting ability was close to zero. But he was not completely useless, if anything, he was the most useful of all the Level F summoned creatures because Musashi knew how to ’build’ stuff. Of course, his building and inventing ability was far behind Dr. Slump or The Three-Eyed One but compared to those normal fictional characters that dealt with actual science, the things that Musashi Koganei could create were incredibly special.

"Hahaha! Completed!" After twenty minutes of fixing and mixing, Musashi finally completed some strange-looking machinery using Lego Blocks. He announced excitedly, "This is it! Lego Fugu Gladiator!"

"This is the most disgusting looking robot I have ever seen..." Feng Bujue commented, "It looks like some strange creature people have created in the game ’spore’ whose spines are as straight as a rod..."

"Erm... actually before you told me the creature’s spine could be adjusted, I have been making creatures that look like that..." Brother Jue’s comment seemed to evoke some strange memory in Xiao Tan.

"Haha! You must think that the stuff that I have created is very strange! Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..." Musashi started to slither around like a snake. "My hentai point has risen again! Hahahaha..."

"Hey... this kind of point that only exists in your imagination is meaningless, isn’t it‽" This was the first time Xiao Tan was introduced to this character and undoubtedly, he was shocked. But just as Xiao Tan gave his comment, Musashi turned into a white light and disappeared.

"Eh? What happened? He knows invisibility?" Xiao Tan asked with confusion.

"Nah, the time’s up." Feng Bujue replied and used his finger to point at his knee. "Actually, he should have disappeared four minutes ago. I believe it was the special effect of the embedded alchemical booster that has allowed him to stay longer." He scratched his chin and said out loud, "Theoretically speaking, this effect of ’increase the summoning effect of the player’s summoning skill by a small degree’ should not have just only affected the summoned creature’s staying time. Perhaps Musashi’s fighting ability or inventing ability has gained a certain level of boost but this kind of improvement is not something that we can see with our naked eye."

"No, I think the improvement of his hentai-ness is clearly discernible to me," Xiao Tan said.

Feng Bujue laughed and said, "Alright, back to the topic at hand. Even though now we already possess a Gundam-like robot vehicle, but to pick out Passing Rain and Laughing Soul among the vast army of the Novel is still not something easy to do. Until now, we are still unsure of their mission and postage within the Novel faction, and we cannot even be sure that they have fallen in ranks with Novel. So..."

"They are already heading this way." Suddenly another voice rang out from behind the two players and a third person joined their conversation.

The two players turned around to look and saw a Lego toy. It had the appearance of a bald elder sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a western suit.

"Erm... Professor X?" Feng Bujue asked to confirm.

"Pleasure." Professor X used his incredibly signature and kind tone to reply and said, "Nice to meet you."

"Wait a minute..." Xiao Tan though was thinking fast this time. He leaned over to Brother Jue and whispered in his ear. "Something is not right, this person can read other people’s minds, right... If he has read the Prophet’s mind, then..."

"Professor, if you do not mind me asking, what is your superpower?" Feng Bujue ignored Xiao Tan and asked the professor directly and openly. But to his surprise, the Lego Professor X answered plainly, "I do not have any superpower."

"Huh?" Xiao Tan was caught by surprise. "How is that possible?"

"Using this kind of control method that requires me to push on the stick to move manually, the Stamina Points that it will exhaust is basically no different from me walking with my hands on the ground..." Xiao Tan replied.

"Humph..." Feng Bujue scoffed with condescension. He raised his right hand. "That is because of your lack of experience. If it is me, after years of training as a single man, with just a single hand I can..."

"Hey!" Xiao Tan roared to interrupt the man. "What is there to gloat about with this kind of lewd confidence‽"

...

At the same time, outside the Lego House, on the top of a shelf rack. In the shadow, there was a gleam of calculating eyes. It looked through the scope of the sniper rifle that took aim at the Lego House’s only entrance. This was a perfect sniping spot. It was on the higher elevation, there was no wind, and the distance was not too close or too far. There was not one cover around the entrance of the Lego House. It was a piece of open space. With the aid of the night vision scope, Laughing Soul could see clearly the situation within the glass case, not even a fly (of course, in their current size, a fly would be the size of a large mouse) would escape her notice.

"Now all we need to do is wait..." Passing Rain held the night vision goggles and squatted next to Laughing Soul. This combo of sniper and observer was perfect. Movement outside of Laughing Soul’s scope would be noticed by Passing Rain and so far, they had met no trouble.

"Actually, there’s a chance that they might have left the Lego House and returned to the Classic territory." When Laughing Soul spoke, she kept her eyes on the scope, and other than her lips, the rest of her body was unmoved.

Passing Rain added, "The report we got from the personal guards is timed 1.53 am and so the moment Bujue and Xiao Tan entered the Lego House can be assumed to be around 1.40 am. If they went in there with a mission or to progress the plot, theoretically speaking, they would not have left so soon."

"What if they are like us, and dare to move around across the mall after 1.55 am, ignoring the threat of the night security?" Laughing Soul said, "Then before we arrived, in the window of ten minutes, they have more than enough time to leave this place already."

"Hmm... there are two premises to this being a reality... One, they have completed what they came to the Lego House to do in inhuman speed; two, they still do not wish to meet us in battle." Passing Rain said to herself, "With Bujue’s action style..."

"For the side quest or hidden quest, the leader might temporarily avoid us." Laughing Soul concluded, "And this kind of evasion will not be viewed as AFK-like behavior. It will only be considered a tactical retreat."

"If they have really returned to the Classic territory, then the fact that we are here have put us in a very dangerous position," Passing Rain said.

Laughing Soul let out a long sigh. "I have already considered that. The night patrol ends their shift at around 2.15 am. From then onward, we will wait for another fifteen minutes, if they two still do not appear by 2.30 am, or we are discovered by hostile toys during that period, then we will swiftly retreat to meet up with our reinforcement and see what we can do from there."

At that moment, when the girls were analyzing and discussing their plan, the boys were inside the strange machine and they were approaching the entrance of the Lego House.

Rat ta ta ta ta ta...

The Lego Fugu Gladiator took huge steps toward the entrance. Xiao Tan who took the main control was worked like a monkey at the circus... Brother Jue, though, was bored out of his mind. He held his cheek with one hand and kept yawning in the side driver cabin.

"Speaking of which, we should have Musashi build us a vehicle that can fly, shouldn’t we? It is much safer to approach the enemy from the sky, after all," Xiao Tan complained through heavy gasps for air.

"If you wish to say that... It be much easier if we just skip through the top of the racks to approach the enemy camp or if I just use Geppo to help you travel to a higher elevation to get close to our target," Feng Bujue said.

"Eh! You have a point there!" Xiao Tan agreed.

"Indeed, I have considered all that." Feng Bujue shrugged. "But in those scenarios, I would be the one who has to work my arse off, wouldn’t it?"

"Huh?" Xiao Tan roared angrily, "So you are doing this on purpose! You’re just making use of me!"

"Au contraire, my little monkey." Feng Bujue placed both of his hands behind his head and leaned back in his chair. "Do not forget that... it was you who volunteered to control the machine’s movement."

One second later, there was a crisp sound that came from the front. That was probably Xiao Tan giving himself a sound slap.

"There is... something... that has come out..." Laughing Soul suddenly said. Seeing that she did not fire on sight, Passing Rain knew something was off. She immediately picked up the night vision goggles and trained her eyes at the area before the Lego House. When the object entered her field of vision, she put down the goggles... She rubbed her eyes and then put the goggles back before her eyes.

"I am willing to bet one dollar that Bujue is inside that thing." Passing Rain used a cold and level tone to describe this situation.

"That Lego monster is some kind of creation created between those two boys, isn’t it..." Laughing Soul though used a pained tone that expressed her disappointment in the two boys to answer.

"If this is a toy that originally exist in this scenario..." Passing Rain continued, "I cannot imagine it ever selling at all."

"Furthermore, the toys would not have dared to come out like this during the patrol session." Laughing Soul said as she inputted a special bullet inside the sniper rifle. "Now this is interesting... I wonder if they will survive if the vehicle that they are in explodes into smithereens..." Her lips curled into a wicked smirk. The barrel of her gun was taking aim at the Lego Fugu Gladiator’s body.

Bang!

The moment Laughing Soul pulled the trigger, it sounded like thunder booming through the sky, and a bullet shining with a green glow slashed through the air.
