My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit

Chapter 137: You Can't Handle the Internet


Giant Beast Planet, Imperial Capital.

The invasion war has ended, and unexpectedly, the shadow looming over the entire world was dispelled in just a few days.

The royal family collapsed, the Prime Minister died suddenly.

Only the Parliament participated and supported this battle from beginning to end, and only the people of the Parliament took over the mess left behind.

However, they have more future prospects, whether it's the enemies who will no longer invade or the newly formed Magic Ring System that keeps them from fearing the threat of giant beasts, these are hopes they could never have imagined before.

And just months after, the Parliament ordered all city-states to start learning new textbooks, drastically reducing the history of the royal family and the old government, while in the new curriculum, "Modern History," with subjects on the Giant Beast War and the Anti-invasion War, became compulsory and examinable subjects.

In all the schools, next to the statue of the Great Sage Yushua, a new statue was erected, one that depicts an 18-year-old, sunny and cheerful young man named "Monarch Xediles I."

Many people expressed gratitude towards this new statue, and many students looked at him with gritted teeth, because his stories and words would become required recitations and examinable content for all students for thousands of years to come.

But, tomorrow's sun still rises.

"I'm off to class!" Ronald said to his wife inside the house, holding a sandwich in his hand.

Along the way, he smiled and greeted others saying, "Good morning!"

"Hello... Monarch..." The student addressed felt honored.

He arrived at the familiar lecture hall, and on the blackboard, it was written "Monarch Xediles II Classroom," and today, he wrote another line of words on an empty space.

"Magic Ring Introduction"

"This is today's lesson, and all mages about to reach Tier One will go to obtain their Magic Ring together with the staff."

"Yes, Monarch."

Looking at the students in the classroom, many of whom might just be one or two years younger, or even the same age as him, but now he stood on this podium.

For some reason, he seemed to relive the scene from more than a year ago when he was below that podium.

He inherited the teacher's classroom and laboratory, also becoming the world's leading scholar in Magic Ring research.

At the same time, he collected all the stories and sayings about his teacher, making him the leading culprit that students grinding their teeth over exam preparation should most hate.

Therefore every time he thought of this scenario, he felt a kind of joy of an unscrupulous teacher.

"Turn to page 287 of the text, starting today we're talking about the mutation and adaptability relationships of Magic Rings..."

The sound of the lecture echoed from the classroom, and in the school, boys and girls walked together, with Magic Rings appearing at any moment, this special ability has already integrated into the daily life and learning of all the students.

...

Far outside the city-states, a Super Beast in the shape of a Water Dragon killed the last Super Beast and reclaimed its body.

"Super Beast Sequence 14 - Rock Earth King, has been exterminated, and its body will be recycled into new generation children's Magic Rings," Cloud Star, after returning to human form, said into the earpiece.

"Got it, Chairman Cloud Star."

For more than a year, he began to clear all the Super Beasts that emerged in the previous era, those Super Beasts couldn't be reasoned with, did not know pain or fear, so they could only be eliminated one by one, while conveniently recycling their bodies into Magic Rings for other children.

"Lord Cloud Star, all registered Super Beasts have been exterminated, you can also take a long break now."

"A long break?" He stood beside the body of the Super Beast, silently looking towards the distant Imperial Capital, and smiled slightly.

Perhaps, he could take a rest now, go visit the school.

...

Wu Li did not jump grades all the way like her two junior disciples; she, like a normal student, continued her studies, becoming a 15-year-old Grand Scholar.

Although every time she recited modern history texts, she felt absurd, did her teacher say this sentence before? Why has she no impression of it at all?

And is there possibly an issue with the analysis of this text? I'm the person involved, why didn't I find the small gesture by the teacher was meant to express this? Weren't they simply wanting to wipe our tears?

And what's this about "Do you understand the Monarch, or do I understand the Monarch, no one understands the Monarch better than I do"?

What what what? What are all these?

Finally, the exam was over, and seeing the holiday notice, she smiled slightly.

"Let's go back to the teacher's laboratory once more."

That night, the three of them coincidentally met at the door of the laboratory, and then, seeing the changes time brought to each other, they were suddenly a bit stunned, then looked at each other and smiled.

"Shall we go for a meal together?"

"Let's go, my treat."

The three walked out of the campus side by side, the sunset stretched their shadows long, and the group photo of four people placed in the center of the laboratory also faced their backs.

...

In the hospital room, a baby was born.

"Wonderful, ma'am, it's a boy," the doctor said.

And the baby didn't cry or make a fuss. With a bewildered expression, he thought, wasn't I Monarch Joel Xiu? Wasn't I just being tortured by someone unknown? What happened? How did I suddenly become a baby?

Is this some illusion technique? When did this happen?

The baby forced himself to repeatedly form seals, trying in vain to dispel this illusion...

...

In the very center of the world, in a hidden chamber yet to be discovered.

He kept conducting experiments, eager to find the "Summoning of Heroic Spirits" technique through his own abilities.

But he failed. No matter how many times he tried, he couldn't summon that person he once deeply regretted and cared about from his own "history" again.

Also, another step, he continued sending missing person notices to that world, over and over.

...

Blue Star, Jiang City.

At this time, in the Consciousness Space, Xue Dili awkwardly looked at the message coming from the Teleportation Gate.

"Grounded for seven days, reflect calmly"

This was the message from the Teleportation Gate. Xue Dili was just like an elementary school student caught sneaking out to play games online by his parents, confined to the study room, unable to go anywhere this week, only staying on Blue Star.

Maybe he could understand; after all, in the end, he gambled on his mom being able to save him in time, which was really too risky.

Thinking back now, he felt a bit lucky, and also grateful that he had divided himself into three parts, or he might have been forever beaten to his knees and locked in the hidden chamber of that world.

But the result is good, isn't it?

And today, he even released the Celestial Thunder, which immediately entered stealth mode in this world.

This was in response to requests from old friends, since Hercules had been boasting about how fun the internet and food would be in three thousand years, making the remaining Greeks very curious.

What does going online mean? Can it really be that fun?

The Celestial Thunder connected to this world's WAN, and from then on, no one bothered Xue Dili anymore.

The fascinating world is like poison to those ancient people who are extremely information-deprived; don't you see how even a very disciplined sea god in mythology turned into a beer and fried chicken-loving hermit within less than a week of going online?

So they all seemed to quickly become internet-addicted youths.

Xue Dili didn't know what kind of battles they would experience on the internet, or if some recruit patrolling the comment section of the "Celestial Thunder Chronicles" movie videos was a certain hero.

Anyway, I wish them happy gaming.

By the way, today, Xue Dili received a large sum of income at the backend, which was the earnings from the first batch of "Celestial Thunder Chronicles" video plays—200,000 US Dollars, more than 1.4 million yuan.

When he saw this income, he was stunned; though he wasn't short of money, it was comparable to his parents' substantial inheritance.

And this was just the profit from the first "Celestial Thunder Chronicles"; the second one hasn't settled yet, and the special finale he's planning to edit hasn't been completed.

According to his estimation, the second one would be even more popular than the first one. If the first was a wild celebration in a small circle, then the "Celestial Thunder Chronicles 2" where the elf Ani's "cute girl turning into an evil bug .JPG" meme genuinely went viral, attracting many casual viewers looking for excitement.

But for him, as long as he has enough money, the amount doesn't matter.

Looking at the cyber brothers fighting on the battlefield inside the Celestial Thunder, Xue Dili thought for a moment...

Let's set up a special account for all this money just for them; this account will be for their use. Oh, and also put the Birdman Armor in the Celestial Thunder, as the medium for their embodiment. Whoever wants to go out to play can possess the Celestial Thunder.

As for how to distribute this money and the opportunities to embody the Birdman Armor, Xue Dili won't participate; their internal Ancient Greek style will naturally come up with a solution that everyone can be satisfied with.

Ignoring countless messages like "Yeah!", "Yay!", "We love you, Xediles!" and various other incomprehensible internet slang responses in the "Greek One Big Happy Family" group on WeChat, Xue Dili left the Celestial Thunder hidden by the village fields.

The internet is a big dye vat; once you fall in, you'll quickly be dyed into an unrecognizable form, and in the future, no matter what memes Xue Dili mentions, they might catch on.

Maybe next time when he says something like "only boys and fatties make invaders anti-war," someone might reply with "1111, I'm a priest, is there a small boy who fell from the sky?" or some other nonsensical remark.

Anyway, their fun is all that matters. By the way, don't leave fried chicken, coke, and beer inside the Celestial Thunder; throw them in the outside field, and stray dogs will naturally run off with them.

Xue Dili's home was right on the border between the countryside and the city; one street eastward lay the urban area of Jiang City, a few hundred meters south lay the village and farmlands.

But as he understood, perhaps after a while, urban construction planning might reach his place, and the fields and villages here might be demolished and turned into new residential estates.

Back home, in front of the memorial hall, there was a new black and white frame of the Super Beast Zero with a commanding presence, with an electronic incense placed before the portrait.

There was an amusing little episode: when Xue Dili took this photo to the print shop for it to be made into a memorial picture, the shop owner had a face full of hesitation, displaying a weird expression. In the end, after spending a few hundred, this frame was done, but Xue Dili was having a hard time maintaining his composure.

"Boom..."

There was a strange sound from the Consciousness Space. Xue Dili froze, thinking that for this grounded week, his Consciousness Space would be void of unexpected guests. But to his surprise, he saw an old man dressed in formal wear, like a KFC mascot grandfather, curiously examining Xue Dili's treasure collection.

Seeing Xue Dili, the old man immediately struck a pose he thought was dashing and said, "Honorable Extraterrestrial Mage, I am the principal of Alrant Magic Academy, pleased to make your acquaintance."

Xue Dili: "..."

Oh no, the old scholar actually came!
