Reborn with Steve Stand - Chapter 645: You're the Best!
Due to Fang Mo’s unethical and somewhat irreverent attitude, the conversation between the two did not last long.
To the onlookers, it seemed to be less than a few minutes before Tatsumaki proactively lifted the psychic barrier and left in a huff.
Considering Tatsumaki’s notoriously bad temper, no one dared to approach her for the time being.
However, Fang Mo paid no attention to these matters. Seizing the moment when no one was around, he quickly made his way to Pig God, intending to handle some serious business first.
“Pig God, eating again?”
Approaching Pig God, Fang Mo patted her to greet her.
Unlike other heroes who were there for various reasons, Pig God’s main purpose was to eat. While everyone else had their own concerns, she sat in a corner of the grass, continuously stuffing various foods into her mouth. It was only when Fang Mo greeted her that she put down what she was holding.
“Yeah.”
Pig God responded with a simple nod, not saying much.
“So, Pig God,” Fang Mo continued, seeing her taciturn demeanor, “how have you been feeling these past couple of days? Any inconveniences?”
“Not bad.”
Pig God nodded. After all, she had just transformed last night, then fought with the Monster Association. Including today, it had been only about a day, so she hadn’t felt much yet. However, she quickly added, as if recalling something, “It was a bit inconvenient when I went out to buy food just now.”
“Mm-hmm, it’s likely because of your new body,” Fang Mo nodded in agreement, adding, “Given how different you look now compared to before, you must have faced a lot of troubles these past two days, right?”
“More or less.”
Pig God nodded again, honestly saying, “Besides going out to buy things, going to the bathroom is also very uncomfortable.”
“Well, nobody wishes for such accidents to happen, and as the person responsible for this, I have felt very guilty. I truly apologize for the trouble caused.”
Fang Mo sighed deliberately and then looked at the eight-foot-tall Pig God, saying, “As you can see, I’m about to leave here soon, but I can’t stop worrying about you. It’s not fair to let you live like this, so I thought of a way that might change you back to your original form.”
“Can you really change me back?”
Pig God’s interest seemed piqued, “I could go for that, but if it requires you to make a significant sacrifice, then forget it. I’m not too concerned about my appearance.”
“Oh, it’s fine.”
Fang Mo immediately shook his head, “It won’t require any great sacrifice from me. I just need your cooperation.”
“What do I need to do?” Pig God asked.
“Come with me, this place isn’t suitable for the ritual.”
Fang Mo glanced around. Actually, the ritual could be performed anywhere, but the courtyard was crowded, and handling space-time powers could be troublesome. If it accidentally affected others, who knows what chaos might ensue.
Turning Child Emperor into a fertilized egg wouldn’t be impossible.
“No problem.”
Fortunately, Pig God was easygoing. Hearing Fang Mo’s words, she stood up directly, “Where are we going?”
“A direct teleport will do.”
Fang Mo shook his head and then placed one hand on Pig God.
In an instant, the scenery around them changed. The next second, they were standing on a desolate ground.
As soon as they landed, Fang Mo skillfully began setting up the altar. Black round stones were placed in order by his Stand Steve. Next, reality manipulation was activated. Fang Mo took out the Abyss Book and waved it, instantly shattering the outer layer of the stones, transforming them into a bizarre red and black altar.
“Mm… let me see what materials are needed.”
Fang Mo muttered as he took out the Abyss Book to consult the relevant information.
As mentioned earlier, this dark magic is called the Time Reversal Ritual. The materials required for this ritual are completely different from those needed for the Dark Resurrection. It needs essence from the Omothol dimension and a ritual medium called ‘Annihilation Shards,’ which contains extremely potent energy.
Omothol is the dimension closest to the Abyssal Almighty Realm.
This world does not have a conventional concept of time.
The Time Reversal Ritual requires the dimension essence to transcend time, and of course, the energy of the Annihilation Shards as a medium to reverse everything.
However, when Fang Mo saw the ritual information, he realized a serious problem.
He didn’t bring these materials with him this time.
“What’s wrong?”
The Pig God, standing nearby, had been waiting for a long time and saw Fang Mo suddenly freeze in place, so he asked curiously, “Has the ritual started?”
“It’s messed up.”
Fang Mo slapped his forehead in response, “I didn’t bring these materials with me…”
“Did you forget them at home?”
The Pig God asked, “Should we go back and get them?”
“This home is not that home…” Fang Mo rubbed his temples with some frustration, feeling a bit numb, “If I go back, the spatial anchor point will break, and I won’t know when I’ll be able to come back. You might even have…”
“Have? Have what…”
The Pig God seemed a bit confused, but before she could ask more, Fang Mo’s expression changed again, “…What the heck!?”
“?”
The Pig God looked at Fang Mo in bewilderment.
But Fang Mo didn’t explain. In fact, the reason for his exclamation was simple… he suddenly received a system notification.
[System Notification: Xiaoyao requests to teleport to your location. /tpaccept to accept the teleport. /tpdeny to deny the teleport. You have 120 seconds to choose.]
Fang Mo was a bit surprised to see this system notification.
Did this little one install surveillance or something to know his current situation?
Despite his curiosity, Fang Mo quickly entered the /tpaccept command. With a flash of white light, his partner appeared beside him.
“So where is this?”
When the little one emerged, she was clearly puzzled by the surroundings, looking around in confusion, “Shouldn’t you be imprisoned in the villa right now?”
“I ran away because I didn’t want to be imprisoned.”
Fang Mo shrugged, “This is the backside of the Planet Ego. I was planning to perform the Time Reversal Ritual, but it seems I forgot the materials…”
“Hmph, I knew it.”
Xiao Yao pouted upon hearing this, but in the next second, her expression froze, and the figure of Alex appeared behind her.
Alex glanced at Fang Mo, then started switching the items in her hand. Soon, she held a strange tool. Though it was pixelated and somewhat blurry, it vaguely resembled a backpack.
Alex quickly handed the item to Fang Mo.
“…What’s this?”
Fang Mo instinctively reached out to take it, but Alex avoided his hand. After a brief silence, a message appeared on the public screen.
[Xiaoyao: Let Steve take it.]
Upon hearing this, Fang Mo summoned his his Stand, Steve.
This time, there was no problem. Steve successfully took the backpack from Alex.
“Hmm?”
After receiving the backpack, Fang Mo glanced at the item Steve was holding. It was called an Ender Bag, a mod he often played with. He immediately recognized it and exclaimed, “Whoa, you got this…”
“I knew you always forget things,” Alex suddenly disappeared. At the same time, Xiao Yao woke up, crossing her arms and looking at Fang Mo with pride. “I just went back and made two Ender Bags. It’ll be convenient to send you things next time.”
Yes, it was the Ender Bag that Xiao Yao mentioned. In fact, it was a mod they unlocked earlier from the Metal Knight, called Ender Storage. This mod featured a kind of cross-dimensional storage similar to a tesseract, capable of transporting items. This ability wasn’t limited to chests or reservoirs; the mod also had a handheld item called an Ender Pouch.
This item could be considered a portable Ender Chest. In the game, you would first create an Ender Chest and set the corresponding channel. Then, you could use the Ender Pouch with a shift + right-click on the chest to bind them together. As a result, the Ender Pouch would share the same channel as the Ender Chest. If you made two Ender Pouches, the internal space would be connected, allowing Xiao Yao to place items in the pouch in the MC world, and Fang Mo could retrieve them in the real world, making it very convenient.
Although theoretically, Fang Mo could have Xiao Yao teleport to him to deliver items, that would be too troublesome. Every time, you would need to input commands, get approval, and then return home. “So you went back just to make this?” Fang Mo looked at Steve’s Ender Pouch with surprise. “I thought you went back to slack off.”
“We just unlocked a bunch of new mods, how could I slack off?” Xiao Yao rolled her eyes. “Anyway, just open the pouch and take a look.”
“Hmm?” Fang Mo controlled Steve to right-click and open the Ender Pouch, immediately finding four Omothol Essences and four Annihilation Catalysts inside. “Whoa?”
Fang Mo was stunned and then looked up at his partner. At that moment, he felt a deep connection, as if countless times in the game, his needs were anticipated and fulfilled by his partner without a word. He might not always trust Bruce, but he would always trust his little partner.
Xiao Yao just smiled and raised her eyebrows at Fang Mo. Standing proudly with her arms crossed, she radiated a ‘praise me’ vibe. Thankfully, she didn’t have a tail, or it would be wagging vigorously.
“You’re the best…” Fang Mo shook his head with a smile and suddenly leaned in to kiss her.
“What are you doing!?” This unexpected move startled Xiao Yao. She only wanted to hear some praise but ended up flustered. She quickly turned around, “You… you’re really something… Anyway, I need to go back now!”
Without waiting for Fang Mo to respond, she disappeared on the spot.
“Ahem…” Fang Mo coughed and turned to the Pig God beside him, “Alright, let’s begin.”
“Oh, okay,” The Pig God, having witnessed this, didn’t comment, “What do you need me to do?”
“Stand on the altar over there,” Fang Mo said seriously, flipping through the Abyssal Book and controlling Steve to take out Annihilation Shards and Omothol Essences, handing them to himself.
A flash of white light indicated the process was quickly activated. The Annihilation Shards turned into a murky crimson crystal emitting a frenzied aura, capable of unsettling any ordinary person merely by looking at it. On the other hand, the Omothol Essence transformed into a twisted black-green mist, feeling cold and heavy to the touch, filled with a disquieting flow, like mercury-filled, worm-infested flesh.
Arranging these items as per the ritual’s instructions, Fang Mo began the dark ritual. As the ritual activated, Fang Mo felt an immense force being drawn from the book into the altar, with a mysterious concept emerging in his mind. It felt akin to controlling a time stone. Fang Mo could perceive his surroundings, see their past as if watching a movie, and could manipulate the timeline at will.
“Emmm…” Fang Mo glanced at the Pig God nearby and lightly twirled his finger in the air. Time rippled like water, causing the Pig God’s eight-foot frame to twitch bizarrely, his body swelling and shrinking until he turned into a ball-like figure. Almost simultaneously, the Pig God spat out a light pink metallic core.
