Chapter 32: Loli Back Stomping Massage Technique

After upgrading his constitution and strength points, Zhang Yun quietly took out a set of clean clothes from his "Backpack" system. He changed out of his bloodstained clothes and threw them into the laundry basin on the balcony to wash.

Although he could clearly explain the effect of this skill to his aunt and two younger cousins and prove that he was not a masochist, he decided to destroy the evidence directly. In consideration, it would be better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After that, it was a heartwarming scene of a handsome brother and a younger-looking woman having a meal together.

When the meal was finished, Zhang Yun helped to wash the dishes. Then, he returned to his room and began to study the rest of the simulation rewards.

The first was the hero soul.

In this round, Zhang Yun met three of the Five Dragon Generals in the Prongia Empire. But a Shadow Contract couldn't be established with Mage Nesia. Only Hero Kanan and Dark Knight Leon could be contracted.

This was peculiar.

Mage Nesia seemed to be hiding some special secret. 

If he wanted to know the truth, Zhang Yun had to continue the simulation, find a way to get close to Nesia, and dig out the differences between him and the other members of the Five Dragon Generals...

As for the other two, Hero Kanan and Dark Knight Leon.

They were all 'pseudo' B+ characters.

Whether it was growth potential or initial attributes, both were superior to Fjolm, who was only a 'pseudo' B character. It was just that Fjolm had a relatively better skill set. 

If Fjolm could raise her Overall Evaluation to B+, her strength would surpass the two members of the Five Dragon Generals. Given that she had a more excellent skill set, she would probably be able to obliterate them. 

Even if Fjolm was up against a B+ 'real 5-star' character, her outstanding skill set could create an unexpected effect that could allow her to win big without sacrificing much and achieve a heaven-defying kill.

It could be said that...

In their current condition, everyone was in their 'strongest' state. Fjolm was the real catch among the deck of characters. 

Zhang Yun would definitely not release her, who had the greatest potential. He wouldn't give up her slot in exchange for the two members of the Five Dragon Generals. Those generals were not as good as Sister Silver Wolf. 

"What a pity..."

Even though Fjolm survived the round, her strength didn't actually improve. 

"We can only wait for the next simulation."

The next thing to consider was the Shadow Plane's Buff–Shadow Knight. 

Those professionals with a 'Knight' class who were killed would become a Shadow Soldier and adopt the corresponding class. They would not be able to level up on their own, but they could be buffed and turn into a Level-2 Shadow Knight. 

For instance, if Brother Shadow killed Dark Knight Leon, Zhang Yun would acquire a Shadow Heavy Knight. 

Killing Fjolm would give him a Shadow Winter Knight. 

Thus, Zhang Yun made an inference. 

The last full buff effect should be that every class that Brother Shadow killed would be transformed into Elite Shadow Soldiers with the corresponding class panel and skills. Under the influence of the 'Shadow Soldier Enhancement', they would become Level-5 or above.

Tsk...this should be called the Invincible Shadow Legion!

What kind of brother was cannon fodder in the beginning?

Finally...

The Level-5 Dungeon, Flame Canyon!

Zhang Yun had never encountered this before. There was little information in the books. He had to go in person to understand the internal structure and specific situation of the dungeon.

Based on common sense, dungeons were much harder to raid than invasion events. Dungeons had numerous powerful bosses. 

Most people could only challenge those at the same level or use a piece of equipment with a higher level to crush the opponent.

Moreover, the dungeon was usually cleared by a team. 

It was rare for a person to venture alone. 

Zhang Yun was a weak and fragile priest with a 'D-' Constitution. If he dared to enter a Level-5 Dungeon as a Level-1 Player, he would most likely be vaporized by an unknown AoE before he could even run.

So…

Zhang Yun decided to leave it for now.

He should at least be a Level-3 Professional. Both his constitution and strength points must be increased as well before he could explore. 

Or...

After a month, the cooldown period for the Shadow Door would end. Zhang Yun could order Brother Shadow to take his place in clearing the dungeon. 

He relied on Brother Shadow's heaven-defying Shadow Monarch Panel.

It was easy to fight.

It didn't matter even if it couldn't win.

The most powerful thing about the shadow was that it was in the same body as Zhang Yun. As long as Zhang Yun did not die, the shadow could refill his cup indefinitely and be resurrected in a while...

"Then, all that is left is this 'Drawing' ability! Is it time travel? Should I go back and change the history? Hmm, well I already have an invincible cheat like Brother Shadow. It is not that outrageous to slightly change the past of the other planes." 

Zhang Yun continued, "What I'm more curious about is, what's the use of Brother Shadow changing the history of these shadow planes? If it's useless, why bother?"

Just as he was thinking, the door to Zhang Yun's room was pushed open. Two cute little cousins in white pajamas, each holding a brown bear doll, ran in like little bunnies.

"Brother Zhang Yun~"

"Qiqi wants to hear you tell a story tonight~"

"Nono also wants it~"

Zhang Yun looked at the two little bunnies who had climbed onto his bed.

"Hey, you're both 10 years old already. Why do you still want to listen to a story to sleep?"

Qiqi and Nono answered in unison, "I don't know~ It's probably because we haven't seen you for too long and we miss Brother Zhang Yun."

"(*╹▽╹*)"

Zhang Yun turned around helplessly and lay on the bed. He said slowly, "Alright. You both know the rules. I'll change the story for every massage. If it's comfortable, I'll tell you a new version of the ship that you've never heard of before."

Qiqi and Nono raised the teddy bears in their hands excitedly.

"Yay~"

They raised their slender white feet and stepped on Zhang Yun's back hand in hand. Then, they continued to press on the meridian points on his back to achieve the effect of stimulating blood circulation, regulating Qi, and burning fat.

"Hehe~ Hehe~"

Wow!

Not bad.

The two little fellows had gained some weight over the past two years.

Their strength became acceptable.

In the past, when they stepped on Zhang Yun's back, they were too light. Many times, they couldn't hit certain acupuncture points properly. It greatly reduced the effect of the massage. 

But no matter what, it was still much better than the two of them using their hands to massage.

That would be too boring.

So…

In the end, Zhang Yun still taught his two younger cousins the 'Loli Back Stomping Massage Technique'.

Every now and then, he would use the method of exchanging stories while enjoying a wave of their service.

As he thought about it, Zhang Yun recalled a story from a library in his previous life. He decided to recite the "Grass God and the World Tree" before his two adorable little cousins. He never told them about it before. 

"It is said that there is a place called Xumi in the distant Tiwatt continent. There is a new god there called Little Lucky Grass King…"

After listening to the whole story, the two younger cousins pitifully sat beside Zhang Yun, tightly holding the bear dolls in their arms. They cried and asked, "Then? The Great Merciful Tree King disappeared just like that?"

Seeing this, Zhang Yun felt affectionate. He couldn't help but touch the heads of the two little cuties. He then changed the original ending.

"No," Zhang Yun said. "He's not dead. The World Tree used a new method so he can be reborn into this world and meet the Little Lucky Grass King. In the end, the two of them lived happily together."
