JOJO, The Escape from Real Diavolo

Chapter 83 The Advent of the Earth Arrow

Half an hour has passed, and even with Hong Wang's high-speed efficiency, it seems that he has only scratched the surface of the obstacle. It's as if he is facing a mountain, and moving it will require considerable physical strength and time.

"The arrow keeps moving, try loosening it?"

After being released, the arrow fell to the ground. It did not sprint or even wriggle as he had imagined; it just trembled on the ground, wanting to move forward but lacking the strength.

"Sigh, if you can't walk, then don't move around..."

It was still trembling wildly in my hand, at that frantic frequency.

Since it was still swaying around and wouldn't stop moving, I decided to just leave the arrow aside and let it do its thing.

"How boring. Doesn't this world have any novels or anything like that?"

Diablo spent half a month in Chen's world, and it could be said that he was almost completely immersed in the culture there. He slept six hours a day there, and when he woke up, he would open a novel to read, whether he was on vacation or in class.

This led him back to this universe, where he constantly longed for the plot of the novels on his bookshelf.

"That's something I'm quite like..."

Chen Miaowen's first class was Chinese, which he considered the sleepiest class of all. He could only barely keep himself from falling asleep at his desk by flipping through comics and looking forward to and recalling the plot.

"Heh, the boss has really changed a lot. But if I were to experience these scenarios, how exciting would that be..."

Looking at the dignified teacher on the stage and the students nodding frantically, Chen felt utterly bored. The longer he stayed in this world, the more he wanted to return to the JOJO universe and back to the boss's body.

Both have different ideas, but neither is feasible at present.

"Hmm? The boss seems to have suddenly made a move?"

Diablo in the comics was also quite surprised. Based on his own perception and the thickness and immovability of the barrier, he figured it would take at least another half hour to dig through the loess obstacle.

But now he has suddenly broken through, and the pressure in front of him has suddenly disappeared.

Although the situation was surprisingly good, he still found it very strange.

Some of the strange things defied his intuition and logic, so he dared not rush forward and instead slowly and cautiously explored his way forward.

It was naturally dark inside, and further in, there were no more oil lamps along the walls, clearly indicating that this was an area that no one had ever explored.

"Will there be any monsters, demons, or even supernatural gods inside? After all, this is a world from a comic book..."

Diablo's witty remarks left Chen Miaowen, who was outside the comics, speechless.

"Why would such monsters appear in the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure world? Arrows can create monster-like forms of gods—isn't that strange!?"

Chen Miaowen suddenly shouted "Ah!" which caught the attention of the Chinese teacher, whose temper was as explosive as a gas explosion.

"Get out...you know the rules in my class."

This time, the teacher didn't verbally abuse him; instead, he simply spread his hands to ask Chen Miaowen to leave the classroom.

His class was a senior class about to graduate, and the atmosphere was tense and oppressive. Even if someone made a fool of themselves, the teachers on stage wouldn't be so ruthless. But after seeing that the target was Chen Miaowen, he felt that they could actually be even more ruthless.

"hurry up!"

For someone like Chen Miaowen, leaving the classroom is a good thing. Even with air conditioning, the classroom is too stuffy and not a suitable place for him to slack off and read comics.

Moreover, the JOJO manga is still ongoing, so he naturally has to keep up with the updates all the time. He is naturally very happy to be able to leave the classroom and find a secluded place to enjoy it.

"It's still trembling, and the trembling is getting stronger. This feeling is making me suddenly a little excited too."

Diablo initially paced slowly, but later switched to a fast crouch run.

As he said, this feeling seemed to have affected him as he held the arrow, and it affected his emotions.

"Hmph, even if it were an insect arrow, I wouldn't lose my composure like this, let alone an emperor! Anyway... I need to calm myself down before I leave."

The secret seems to be just ahead, waiting for humanity to discover and activate it.

Outside the comic, Chen Miaowen was already impatient, but Diablo was able to calm down and sit cross-legged on the ground to calm his mind.

"It must be the effect of that secret on humanity... I can't rush forward rashly. Maybe that secret is trying to lure me in to kill me."

He learned meditation techniques, closing his eyes tightly as if he were trying to enter the realm of immortals to cultivate.

"That's hilarious..."

Chen Miaowen blinked, and the comic jumped to another line.

It's Rongrong, coming this way.

As for why they came this way, Huang Zhen explained it in the comics as follows:

"There's a feeling that in the first few kilometers, it's like there's an attraction specifically for us Stands... It's a kind of attraction."

Huang Zhen could feel this attraction, but the other stand-ins couldn't.

Hol and Holmes were still working on the follow-up work on the ship; Oingo was still on his way to the hospital; Yedan had arrived near the Lough Pyramid; and Trish had boarded a plane back to the SPW branch.

Everything was exactly as reader Chen Miaowen had predicted.

until...

"This is the secret?"

Diablo was ready when he found an arrow made of loess on the wall of the deepest chamber in the pyramid.

After looking around and confirming that there were no strange traps, he ordered the Red King to loosen the wall and retrieve the arrow.

The moment the Red King finished everything and touched the arrow, the JoJo universe underwent a tremendous change.

All Stand users in the world can sense the location of this arrow, and a map will even appear in their minds, marking the exact location of the arrow.

And they began to crave it.

The prince and his companion put down all their work. Oingo changed course, Trish ordered the driver to turn around, and Yedan's eyes began to light up as they all headed this way.

Even Chen Miaowen, who is not in the comics, showed extreme hunger when he saw this arrow.

His eyes sparkled as he stared at the secret in the comic, his hands gripping the comic book pages tightly, as if trying to snatch the arrow from the comic but unable to do so, and he began to let out a soft roar.

Needless to say, the boss in the comics started unconsciously stabbing himself with the earthen arrows again and again, but it didn't cause him any harm. There was no tactile sensation of the arrows touching his skin (it was like something that could be touched but couldn't actually interfere with reality), and there were no strange changes, but he just kept poking himself.

Almost everyone who possesses a Stand is in this situation, desperately craving the arrow.

Besides one person, there was Rongrong.

His Huang Zhen was beyond the scope of a stand-in, and this ability did not show any effect on him.

He not only neutralized the slight effect of that earthen arrow on him, but also retained the map in his mind.

"Giorono, my heart tells me that this blue mark is an arrow, and it must be a very unusual arrow. It's not an insect arrow, but it seems to have an ability to affect all Stand users, and this arrow seems to be very special... It's best not to let Diavolo or that devil get their hands on it."
