But in this dimension, reasoning is futile, just like with Tom Cat.
"Sounds like he's a particularly charming person."
Dai Ben murmured.
Lin Yi nodded, "Aside from getting the species wrong, Grey Wolf indeed has charm; otherwise, why would everyone have been saying a few years ago that if you were to marry, marry Grey Wolf... Seems like that's an old joke now.
He took out a red light orb from his hand, threw it into the air, and it transformed into The Big Wheel.
Dai Ben had also spun The Big Wheel a few times, his luck was average, so he didn't feel particularly pressured.
He approached the edge of The Big Wheel and gave it a strong spin.
A minute later, the 'clang clang' sound of The Big Wheel stopped.
The shutter underneath the pointer opened, and Dai Ben stepped forward to take a look, finding an invention with a three-character name.
[Opposite Hammer]
The Big Wheel sparkled with golden light, and a hammer appeared in Dai Ben's hand.
The hammer was purple on one side, yellow on the other, and had an arrow symbol in the middle indicating a switch.
Lin Yi was taken aback; he recognized this invention!
The introduction to the invention stated that if hit by the hammer, one's personality would become the opposite. Yet in practice, even Slow Sheep could sprint like the wind.
Lin Yi was confused, what did that have to do with an opposite personality?
According to the System's official annotation, the effect of this invention was somewhat vague.
It meant, roughly speaking, that being hit by the Opposite Hammer would cause the most prominent characteristic of a person to change to its opposite, rather than targeting the personality specifically.
After conveying the annotation to Dai Ben, the key person didn't say anything, but suddenly a voice came from the audience.
Chen Xin raised her right hand, her expression somewhat unnatural, "May I ask, is it possible to strike our Sect Master on the head with this hammer?"
At this point, everyone's gaze shifted to Chen Xin.
"I was wondering if this hammer might turn our Sect Master back into a male; her current appearance is really... not so great."
To Chen Xin's surprise, as soon as she finished speaking, many of the men around showed an expression of 'I warn you to mind your own business.'
Lin Yi also realized that ever since Ning Fengzhi became Lady Ning, more and more male Soul Masters had been gravitating toward Tiandou.
Chen Xin's face darkened a bit, and this was probably one of the reasons; because Ning Fengzhi had turned into a woman, the four of them were like monkeys being gawked at in a zoo.
And Chen Xin also minded the men sizing up Lady Ning, so she figured she might as well try to turn Lady Ning back into Ning Fengzhi as soon as possible.
Seeing Dai Ben hesitate, Chen Xin continued, "Your Majesty, don't worry about the reward; as long as it's not too much, we'll pay."
Dai Ben was still hesitant.
Lin Yi opportunistically said, "The reward is not a one-time consumable item."
Only then did Dai Ben cheer up, "Miss Chen, you're too kind. Why not lend it to you for free? Take it, go ahead!"
That's human nature for you. Just a moment ago he was clearly reluctant, Chen Xin thought as she smiled and approached the stage to take the Opposite Hammer from Dai Ben's hand.
"Uncle Jian, will this turn me back to my original self?"
Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin with hopeful, sparkling eyes.
Come on, Sect Master, can you not look at me with that kind of gaze... Chen Xin internally screamed.
"Let's hope, after all, the most prominent characteristic you have right now is your female appearance, and Senior Lin Yi just mentioned that it only changes the most prominent and dazzling trait."
Lady Ning immediately nodded, "Then please, Uncle Jian!"
Chen Xin was startled; damn it, if she didn't change back soon, he really was going to get sucked in!
Lifting the Opposite Hammer, Chen Xin resolutely struck Lady Ning on the head.
"Ow, it hurts~"
Lady Ning covered her head.
A glow began to emanate from her, and Chen Xin put down the hammer, watching intently.
Suddenly, he noticed Lady Ning's previously pert bosom flatten instantaneously and joy filled him; it was changing, she was finally going to revert!
But the next moment, Chen Xin's expression froze.
The bust did flatten, but Lady Ning's height had also suddenly reduced, her frame seemed to shrink further, her arms and legs also slimmed down.
Chen Xin and Gu Rong, who was standing beside him, were both stunned, taking a step back in shock.
Because her waist size had decreased, the pants finally could no longer hold up and dropped down, revealing only two segments of smooth, slender calves.
The upper body clothes, like an overly large dress, hung loosely on her thin frame, exposing most of her pale shoulders.
Ning Fengzhi looked up, her big, innocent eyes gazing at Chen Xin.
This is... this is... the transformation from a mature woman to a little girl?!
Lady Ning... has turned into Miss Ning?!
A bolt from the blue struck Chen Xin's mind as the Counter Hammer slipped from his grasp. Dai Ben quickly ran over with heartache and picked it up, dusting off the dirt.
Damn it, I lend it to you for free and you can't even take care of it!
Little does Dai Ben know how devastated Chen Xin's heart is at this moment.
"Sect Master! What is this! What exactly is going on!"
Chen Xin hurried forward and half-knelt down, attempting to pull up her trousers, but because her frame was too small, they slipped down again as soon as he pulled them up.
"Sigh, Uncle Jian, maybe this is just fate. Let's not pull them up anymore, let go of what needs to be let go.
Chen Xin dumbly listened and nodded, letting the trousers fall.
After Lady Ning changed into Miss Ning, her voice changed again, becoming incredibly cute and sticky sweet.
Behind her, the crowd of male onlookers instantly transitioned, with mature woman enthusiasts silently stepping back, and little girl enthusiasts excitedly filling their places.
Little girl enthusiasts rejoice!
"Uncle Jian, I want that."
At this moment, Miss Ning suddenly lifted her pale little hand, pointing in the direction of the Ice Emperor.
Chen Xin was stunned, "Miss wants... no, does the Sect Master want that ferocious beast?"
Hearing this, the Snow Emperor vigilantly shielded the Ice Emperor behind him.
But the cute and lovable Miss Ning shook her head, her sweet voice saying, "I want to wear twin ponytails too~"
Flustered!
Looks like her personality changed too...
Chen Xin couldn't hold it in any longer, his face darkened as he walked aside, grinding his teeth:
"Gu Rong, you help the Sect Master with her pigtails."
Gu Rong twitched his mouth but complied nonetheless.
Back when Ning Rongrong was young, he'd often tie her pigtails, yet now, as Ning Rongrong was almost of age for marriage, he found himself having to tie cute twin ponytails for the Sect Master.
Lin Yi never imagined that the Counter Hammer would identify "mature woman" as Lady Ning's most prominent trait, rather than the fact that he had just transformed from a man into a woman.
So with one strike of the hammer, mature woman successfully became little girl.
Grey Wolf's invention indeed isn't very reliable.
"This reward is really interesting."
Dai Ben looked at the hammer in his hands and stored it away, yet dared not use it carelessly.
The item's effects seemed somewhat random, making it unsuitable for casual application on allies, neither could it be used thoughtlessly on enemies in case it turned a weak opponent into a strong one.
With Star Dou's attack over, it was time for the Aquipeia Forest to take their turn.
The four of them exchanged glances. Yesterday, Zi Ji took the lead, and following the flow, Di Tian suggested, "Then let's have Zi Ji go first today."
"Okay, boss."
The woman in purple-black armor sauntered up the stage with a sizzling sway of her hips. Bi Ji leaned forward to take a look, adorably extended her arms, squatted and jumped to the spot where Zi Ji had just stood.
At this moment, Di Tian glanced at Bi Ji and suddenly as if struck by a thought, hastily reminded Zi Ji, "Didn't you forget to bring something?"
"Hm? What did I forget?"
Zi Ji turned back, puzzled.
Di Tian pointed at Bi Ji's head and said, "That goose."
"Oh, right!"
Zi Ji just remembered and, with a sheepish smile, turned back and walked down the stage to pull the seemingly amnesiac Bi Ji up with her.
The two sisters foolishly approached Lin Yi.
Indeed, yesterday's attack had been launched with the aid of Bi Ji's Jade Light. Without this damage boost today, the reward might be downgraded.
Zi Ji could not help but hold her forehead as she faced a series of baffling actions as if her brain stem was missing.
"Have the Gourd Seeds been planted yet?"
Lin Yi looked up at this moment and asked Bi Ji.
Looking at Lin Yi, who had become handsome overnight and was now right before her eyes, the adorable Goose Goose suddenly seemed to develop aphasia.
ps. Thank you for the continued support.
