In the empty room, the sorrow of blood seemed to overflow.
But she never showed any signs of weakness.
She simply walked silently to the computer, turned it on, in this lonely, dark room.
She pondered and learned about human affairs.
During the day, she was Xia Mi, a Young Miss who had fully integrated into human life.
At night, she was the silent and unyielding Jörmungandr, the Dragon King, determined to break free from the fate of the abandoned clan.
The despair of the abandoned clan was a thousand years of slumber, an endless cycle of nightmares.
In the deepest darkness, there was only herself and her silly brother.
For a thousand years, in the darkness, on the throne of the abandoned clan, the King and King huddled together for warmth.
“Dragons, like humans, were initially just children who came into this world,” Jörmungandr whispered, like the roar of a Dragon King.
These words should have been filled with resentment and loneliness, but Jörmungandr spoke them coldly, full of mockery, showing no weakness.
She was never a girl who would show weakness.
“That Ryo is quite interesting.”
“He seemed a bit nervous when he was with me.”
“According to human emotions, being nervous when seeing a pretty girl should mean he likes her.”
“But it doesn’t quite seem like liking.”
“He also seems very confident; a human with ordinary talent and an orphan background should be self-conscious and lonely, right?”
“I told him about the resources top students at school could get, and his reaction was actually happiness, not disappointment.”
“Does he really think he can grow to a similar level as me in a short time?”
“His personality is also a bit different from before; it seems some interesting changes have happened to him.”
Xia Mi muttered to herself.
Her tone, pitch, and pronunciation habits were different from just now.
Perhaps even she herself didn’t notice.
Several years of vivid human memories clashed with a thousand years of lonely memories, finally mixing together.
Becoming Chaos and distorted.
Ryo sat at the table, learning about the current state of this world on his computer.
Although it was a human society, and he inherited the memories of his predecessor.
His understanding of this world was still a bit vague.
It’s no exaggeration to say that his understanding of this world might not even be as much as Teacher Da Ye, who isn’t human.
“That’s quite abstract.”
“No, this world has also been merged into.”
“Seriously? I’m a loyal fan of this anime!”
Ryo searched the computer, occasionally exclaiming, and sometimes letting out a silly chuckle.
After a search, Ryo’s understanding of this world became clearer.
Many worlds had basically been completely merged into this world.
For example, Shinomiya Family world.
He saw Shinomiya Family and the Shijo Family.
Such everyday worlds, without too much mystery, might have been entirely swallowed by this High Martial World.
However, Shinomiya Family was no longer a huge zaibatsu with astonishing influence, as it was in the original anime.
In Z City, it was a considerable enterprise and very wealthy, but not to the extent of a zaibatsu.
The Shijo Family was also similar.
From this point of view, the High Martial World’s method of swallowing other worlds was relatively gentle.
Otherwise, indigenous zaibatsus like the Shijo Family and Shinomiya Family would not be in a good situation.
Besides Shinomiya Family, this world should have swallowed quite a few slice-of-life anime worlds.
However, Ryo could only make judgments based on original characters.
Not every slice-of-life anime has so-called zaibatsu young misses.
Another somewhat everyday world that Ryo could identify was the Food Wars!
Shokugeki no Soma world.
Skilled chefs are popular everywhere.
Even in this High Martial World, Totsuki was quite famous.
It had almost dominated the catering industry.
The dishes cooked by excellent chefs from Totsuki were not only extremely delicious but also had the effect of improving physical fitness and Mental Energy.
Ryo’s mouth twitched.
However, the original Food Wars!
indeed had a Mental Energy setting.
Using cooking to make others’ clothes explode and causing mental fluctuations, so improving Mental Energy was normal.
Although he still found it a bit abstract.
As for other worlds with high mystery and high combat power, they were easy to judge.
For example, the Naruto World; Z City was connected to the Naruto World.
The Third Hokage, that old man, frequently appeared on the local political channel.
Judging by the Third Hokage’s age, the timeline in the Naruto World should be close to the beginning of the plot.
However, the Naruto World was not swallowed like the slice-of-life anime worlds.
The Naruto World still maintained considerable autonomy.
Just like the Dragon Clan World, according to Xia Mi, the Dragon Clan World should also be an independent world at present.
It’s just that the High Martial World has some connection with that world.
The Rank was one tier higher than the Naruto World.
This was normal; at this point in time, the Naruto World had not yet reached the stage where Kage-level and Six Paths powerhouses were everywhere.
In terms of overall combat power, it was much weaker than the World Government.
Not to mention, the territory of the Pirate World was much larger than that of the Naruto World.
And there were all sorts of magical specialties.
As for Natsuki Subaru’s Re:Zero World, Ryo didn’t find it.
He figured it was probably because a connection hadn’t been established yet.
After all, Natsuki Subaru hadn’t even undergone Transmigration yet.
Besides checking the anime worlds that appeared.
Ryo also searched for things that could enhance his strength, like Hybrid potions.
He found quite a few upon searching.
After opening the shopping app on his phone, Ryo thought he had arrived at the Main God Space’s mall.
Goodness, they even sold Sharingan.
Artificially cultivated Sharingan from one tomoe to three tomoe were all available, which was quite intimidating.
However, after seeing the price, which was even more expensive than Hybrid potions, Ryo decisively gave up.
Twenty thousand yuan.
A mere twenty thousand yuan.
This was all the property his predecessor had left him.
His predecessor’s parents had passed away when he was very young.
No real estate, only a small sum of savings, about fifty thousand yuan.
The government’s basic subsidy ended upon high school graduation.
Relying on the indigenous government subsidy and some savings left by his parents.
His predecessor was barely able to support the consumption of martial arts training.
Martial Dao cultivation was very resource-intensive.
Not to mention the various martial Dao resources needed to improve to a higher physical fitness.
Just the food alone could not be supplied by the orphan subsidy.
At Body Refining Rank one, the daily food intake was already equivalent to an adult’s.
His predecessor was Rank 1.5; although not high, it was still achieved through diligent training and considerable consumption.
From freshman year to senior year, his predecessor had spent about thirty thousand yuan in total.
After browsing around, Ryo placed an order on his phone.
“Ten catties of Sea Kings meat, one thousand yuan.”
Special beast meat from the Pirate World, with high nutritional value, very suitable for people who train their bodies to supplement nutrition.
