Chapter 41 - Chapter 41: A Rare Routine and Skill Improvement

During their conversation, the group arrived at the entrance of Lena's Greenhouse.

Lena was initially a bit nervous seeing so many children coming to her Greenhouse, worried they might carelessly damage the flowers. But upon seeing Amiya leading them, Lena relaxed.

After all, as a leader, Amiya, under Kal'tsit's guidance, had a very good impression on the people of the island. Coupled with her inherent "mind-reading" ability, her "excellent quality" of not intentionally embarrassing others, and her cute and gentle appearance, many on Rhodes Island held her in great admiration.

After a brief conversation with Lena, she gladly agreed to the children's request to play in the Greenhouse.

After seeing the barren colors of the wasteland and the monotonous metallic hues inside the landship, these red, blue, green, and purple, various strange and wonderful flowers made Rosmontis feel as if she had entered another world.

In addition, many of the flowers planted in Lena's Greenhouse itself had a calming effect. Mixed with the fresh scent of soil, any hesitation Rosmontis might have had about joining Rhodes Island vanished at that moment.

The group sat there until evening. Outcast, who rarely found Kanna not at the cafeteria on time, personally came to check, and only then did the group realize they had been playing there for a long time.

As they were leaving, Lena took out several freshly made sachets from the house.

She distributed the sachets to the four. As she walked up to Kanna, she stroked Kanna's horn and softly said, "I know Kanna is a good child, so Kanna-chan, feel free to come play in the Greenhouse anytime!"

With that, she also blinked her eyes.

After leaving the Greenhouse, Kanna rubbed her belly.

Mmm ~ Hungry!

The group followed Outcast to the cafeteria. Most people had already finished eating, with only a small number still lingering.

Upon seeing Kanna walk in, several Operators who were about to leave stopped and sat down to the side. The one in the middle even started taking bets on how many plates Kanna could eat today.

Kanna, hearing their chatter, glanced over. The leader was Yunlong Ge. She waved at him. Yunlong Ge, seeing Kanna wave and make a funny face at him, guessed that his betting had been discovered, but he was thick-skinned and not afraid of a kid's disdain. Instead, he cheerfully gave Kanna a thumbs-up, signaling her to keep up the good work.

At that time, she had the impulse to go all-in and buy all the remaining food in the cafeteria, but unfortunately, she didn't have any money. Her last mission's salary had been given to Outcast by the evil Kal'tsit, who was to keep it for her.

Although Kanna was very angry and thought that since she didn't need money to eat, her salary was useless, she gave up trying to get it back. Now, seeing the betting going on next to her and not being able to join in the fun, she felt very upset.

Thinking of this, Kanna turned her grief and indignation into appetite, rapidly devouring plate after plate of food delivered to her, under the shocked gazes of everyone.

Rosmontis, beside her, also saw Kanna in full throttle for the first time. The speed and efficiency of her devouring a plate in one bite made her pupils constrict. She just stared blankly as food was brought in like an assembly line and then disappeared into Kanna's mouth, almost forgetting to eat herself.

After returning to her room, Rosmontis was in a daze for a while. Suddenly, she started to laugh, and as she laughed, tears flowed uncontrollably. When she was tired of laughing, she lay back on the bed.

At this moment, the panic and unease that had been in Rosmontis's eyes were gone. Although the previous experiments had severely impaired her memory, the names Amiya and Kanna were deeply imprinted in her heart.

Just like that, Kanna's days on Rhodes Island became uncharacteristically peaceful.

As for missions, the skill she acquired after completing the last mission was the complete set of Lightning Release Body Refinement Arts and related skills from Naruto. She was very dissatisfied with this, as wasn't that just wrapping oneself in lightning and using taijutsu with super high physical prowess? Even without acquiring this skill, Kanna could easily develop these skills herself.

As for why she didn't practice it, one reason was laziness. This taijutsu was like sailing against the current; if you didn't advance, you retreated. She had no interest in this kind of daily, boring, and tedious practice. The second reason was that she didn't want to turn into a muscle-bound monster.

Thinking of her small body, if she ripped open her clothes and it was all muscle, and then her face became 'JOJO-esque,' how terrifying would that be?

However, she copied down this body refinement art and gave it to Kal'tsit.

After reading it, Kal'tsit said that this thing looked very impressive, and that was all it was—it just *looked* impressive.

Leaving aside what chakra was, currently, there were people within Rhodes Island who could use lightning as an Originium Art. But if they were truly allowed to train like this, they would most likely either die from exhaustion or quickly suffer an oripathy outbreak due to the rapid increase of Originium content in their blood, and then disappear from the face of Terra with a bang.

However, although the crucial methods of lightning attraction and body tempering were unusable, some of the attack and combat techniques within it had merit.

Kal'tsit found ACE and Brother Yunlong, and after discussion, they extracted the only usable combat techniques from it.

As for this book, personally written by Kanna, with characters like ants crawling all over it, titled "Super Divine Might Secret Art: Thunder Body Refinement Grand Method," it was thrown under the table as a mat.

As for why this happened, it was naturally because Kal'tsit was afraid that some dim-witted Operator might see this book and try to learn from it. One should know that, except for monsters like Kanna, the only outcome for normal people learning this would be to die faster.

This kind of book, which couldn't be thrown away but also couldn't be placed on a bookshelf, naturally became a member under Kal'tsit's desk.

The missions generated after this one once again became those that were difficult to complete unless she left Rhodes Island.

And Kanna was also angry at this mission system, thinking, 'I don't care what you generate, I'm not looking at it.' After all, with her proficiency in Palm Thunder and Star Shift increasing daily, she had developed many new uses for them.

Among them, Palm Thunder could not only be released from her entire body but also adjusted in range and power as needed. Currently, by simply condensing and releasing Palm Thunder, Kanna could successfully hit a target less than ten centimeters in size, erected at the front of the ship, from the top of the Lookout Tower. The power was also not bad; according to calculations, if not properly protected, one strike could severely injure a normal Operator and knock them down. This accuracy, precision, and power were praised by Outcast, who assisted in the training, for a long time.

As for the use of Star Shift, Kanna suddenly recalled Gangplank's three-barrel combo from League of Legends during an experiment.

Gangplank relies on skills to detonate barrels, and then uses the distance between the barrels to create a chain explosion. Kanna felt that Thunderbolt Wedge could also achieve this.
