Chapter 589 - 298: Luoning’s Problem
After Ai Nuan entered Diane’s Undead Calamity, Baiyi first placed the Heart of the Giant in a large room.
Baiyi had to come up with a way to make the Demon Realm accommodate the Heart of the Giant.
The high probability was because this heart was always beating.
Baiyi needed a cover that could completely isolate its aura before it could enter the Demon Realm.
After all, the arms of the Giant could be housed in the Demon Realm, but the Heart of the Giant could not. The difference between the two was that the Heart of the Giant was not only an Energy Core but was also constantly beating.
For now, Baiyi ignored the Heart of the Giant, reverted to the Light Side, and walked into Luoning’s room.
Aside from Luoning, Ding Ziyuan and Aisha were also in the room.
Seeing his arrival, Ding Ziyuan stood up respectfully and bowed in greeting, while Aisha seemed uninterested in paying attention to Baiyi.
She seemed to know something.
"So what do you think, Ms. Ding Ziyuan, is there a way?" Baiyi asked, treating these older Scholars with a certain respect, even though she was currently only at the Silver Level.
"I haven’t seen the exact situation yet, but Madam showed me those materials. This thing can be handled in four ways without using Extraordinary intervention." Ding Ziyuan straightened up, a contemplative look in her eyes.
"Please go on," Baiyi paused, feeling relieved, meaning there were many ways, indicating that [Dependency Disorder] was not such a serious issue.
"The simplest and also the hardest way is you." Ding Ziyuan smiled and said, "As long as you give her enough sense of security, then naturally she won’t have any problems."
Baiyi hesitated: "You may not be very clear, the more security she has, the more she seems to depend on me, to the point of being... pathological."
Ding Ziyuan smiled and looked at Diane, saying, "It’s not the sense of security for bodily safety, but there are also other methods."
She continued, "Just create more significant hardships, allowing others to save her in times of despair, then the dependency can be dispersed. If controlled cleverly enough, this dependency can even extend beyond people to things or even... this World."
She didn’t wait for Baiyi to respond, "The remaining two... the first is to administer medication to make her independent. Control her emotions with medication, and once she gets used to independence, the dependency naturally disappears."
"The last one...."
She pondered and said, "Give her confidence, give her faith. The kind of psychological formation in your data primarily stems from inferiority and hardship. As long as life gets better and she doesn’t encounter any setbacks, she’s been by your side for nearly ten years, hasn’t she? And this is only the first episode, isn’t it?"
Baiyi fell silent, with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "Let’s guide her first. You’re the expert in this field, so I’ll have to trouble you, as for medication... it’ll be unnecessary for now."
Ding Ziyuan glanced at the individuals present, slightly bowing in greeting, "As you wish, I’ll chat with her when she wakes up."
Baiyi turned to Aisha, looking a bit helpless, "Lady Aisha, do you know anything?"
"No," Aisha said calmly, her tone somewhat stiff, showing no intention to deal with Baiyi.
After all, she genuinely cared for Luoning, almost treating her like a granddaughter, and now that Luoning had fallen into a stupor from exhaustion over this matter, she naturally wouldn’t show Baiyi a good attitude.
"Let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll prepare some soul-nourishing potions to send over later."
He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on, and turned to leave.
A silently thinking Diane followed, her eyes contemplating something.
When only the two of them were left, she suddenly said, "I think I understand now."
"What?"
Baiyi was checking his unused items, with four Special Skill Points accumulated from the ocean journey left unused.
The random rewards also stemmed from killing four Demigods, and even the two from the promotion quest could be considered among them.
There were a total of six random rewards, plus an Illusory Treasure; he didn’t know if it was for a lottery.
But at the moment, at least, he had to wait for Luoning to recover before continuing the draw.
Diane looked at Baiyi and paused: "Are you about to get busy?"
Baiyi nodded: "Yes, indeed, many things, now that Demigod in the sea should be about to act, and when the Sea Race awakens, a Divine Descent is likely within ten years."
"Within this time, I must become powerful, at least... possess forbidden strength."
"Even if within these ten years, an Abyss Lord’s anticipated Divine Envoy Era might become a transition...."
Baiyi’s eyes showed some fatigue as he headed towards the lab, "I can’t stop...."
Diane froze, then suddenly smiled, stepping forward to hug Baiyi’s arm, "Indeed, it’s been a bit tiring, but there’s nothing urgent that can’t wait a day. You haven’t spent time with me in a long time; accompany me for a walk, okay?"
Baiyi looked at the night sky, realizing perhaps he had ignored the Night and Day for too long.
Strolling with Diane on the streets, the streets of Dongwu City were still crowded at night.
Players, Dawn Residents, all living in harmony in the city.
Moreover, the entertainment activities introduced by the players clashed with Xia’s Extraordinary Attributes, causing many Blue Star entertainment projects to blossom in Xia.
Bars, internet cafes, sky lanterns, KTV, game centers, and other entertainment facilities were all present.
Even some courtesans in brothels started performing unique Blue Star dances, attracting visitors.
However, the Federation had already begun to regulate this aspect, after all, if such things became legal, there would be many cases of coercion, leading to much darkness.
