Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 245 - 244 Not to be looked at directly
It felt as though something changed in an instant, but Zhou Bai did not feel any changes or modifications to his body, though there was indeed something different.
He first looked in the mirror, carefully examined his appearance, and repeatedly confirmed if there were any issues or differences.
"Still the same handsome nest."
Then Zhou Bai turned to Christina and asked, "Tina, do I look any different now?"
Christina: "No difference."
Zhou Bai: "Then how do I look now?"
Christina: "Clean and fresh, very good."
Zhou Bai let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that without activating the so-called Ugly Disaster state, his body had not changed, which was good, as it was very controllable.
Next, Zhou Bai said, "Alright, I’m going to activate the Ugly Disaster state now, Tina, Elsa, be careful, and come talk to me immediately if there’s any problem."
Tina and Elsa both nodded and curiously watched Zhou Bai.
Zhou Bai let out a breath. According to the star point’s instructions, he thought about it and directly activated the Ugly Disaster state, feeling a strange sensation coursing through his heart.
"It feels weird, something has changed."
Then he checked the auxiliary system panel and saw that the laziness value was being burned by 1 point at a time.
At that moment, Zhou Bai heard the exclamations from Elsa and Christina beside him.
Turning his head, Zhou Bai saw that Elsa and Christina were both staring at him with tears streaming down, their teary eyes so sorrowful that anyone would believe they were heartbroken.
Zhou Bai joked, "No way, did my handsomeness make you cry?"
A cat and a dog both shook their heads, turning their heads away while wiping the tears from their eyes.
Zhou Bai said, "Look at me, see if I have changed."
"I can’t! I can’t look at you!" Elsa said, "Ah! Such an eyesore."
"Elsa, watch how you speak." Zhou Bai: "How am I an eyesore?"
Elsa intermittently glanced at Zhou Bai, then immediately turned her head away, continuously rubbing her eyes. She then noticed her eyes were swelling up, incessantly tearing up.
Christina did the same, rubbing her eyes and saying, "Just looking at you, my eyes feel so spicy and painful, tears uncontrollably flow out, I simply cannot look at you."
Zhou Bai cursed in his mind: ’Damn, I’m so unbearable to look at.’ But then he thought, ’Seems quite useful though.’
He tried looking at himself in the mirror and did not feel anything abnormal.
So he said, "Then in your vision, do I still look like my original self? Why not try scanning me with Primordial Spirit power or look in the mirror?"
"There’s always the gemstone to reverse time if something goes wrong."
"No!"
Christina wanted to refuse but felt her body completely turn around, already facing the mirror.
The little cat hurriedly covered her eyes with her paws: "No, no! My eyes are so spicy."
Then, Christina was aimed at by Zhou Bai, who was aiming at himself, and her little claws were pried open.
"Ah!" In an instant, Christina’s eyes were tearful, her nose running with tears forming a pool, feeling as though moved.
However, with blurred eyes, she forcefully tried to see, and finally she was able to make out Zhou Bai’s appearance clearly.
It was just a big mosaic.
Christina even tried to use her Primordial Spirit to sense Zhou Bai’s current appearance but found it impossible to perceive, feeling only a blurry mosaic.
"Mosaic! Zhou Bai, you look like a big blob of mosaic right now!"
Meanwhile, as the 10-second activation time passed, Zhou Bai saw the laziness points jump to 10 points per second, intensifying the consumption.
Beside him, Christina yelled, "My eyes hurt so much! So spicy! Zhou Bai, stop making me look."

Looking over, Zhou Bai saw Christina covering her eyes, wiping them continuously while tears kept flowing, he quickly turned her around and asked, "Are you alright?"
"Zhou Bai, your appearance is so spicy for the eyes! Don’t come near me!" Christina cried and said, "Just catching a glimpse is unbearable, quickly turn off that ugly disaster! I can’t stand it anymore!"
Elsa also kept rubbing her tearful eyes, "Spicy eyes! Spicy eyes!"
While turning off the ugly disaster, Zhou Bai said, "I’m telling you, this has nothing to do with my looks. What on earth would be pixelated and not burn the eyes?"
From the testing, Zhou Bai roughly understood the capabilities of the ugly disaster.
Firstly, it was not physically visible. Directly looking at it would cause severe eye pain and teary eyes, making it hard to see Zhou Bai.
Secondly, it caused mosaicing. If Zhou Bai was actually seen, he would appear covered in mosaic. In this state, it was completely impossible to see any physical features, like Zhou Bai’s appearance or body shape.
As time passed, the mosaic on Zhou Bai would gradually expand and spread into the surrounding environment. His mosaicing also grew more severe, gradually making even the slightest movement indistinguishable.
This caused onlookers to be unable to see not only him but also their surrounding environment and be unaware of it.
But at the same time, as the activation time of the ugly disaster increased, the laziness points also rose from initially 1 point per second to 10 points per second after 10 seconds, and after another 10 seconds, it became 100 points per second.
Zhou Bai didn’t experiment further; first, because the range was too large and second, because it wasted too many laziness points, but he estimated that the longer the activation, the higher the consumption of laziness points.
"Along with the pain, it seems to have a spicy eyes effect."
"It’s not ’seems’!" Christina shouted, "It is spicy eyes! Really spicy. My eyes feel like they’ve been stabbed by two chili peppers."
’Very useful ability.’ Zhou Bai thought while stroking his chin, ’It instantly makes me think of many uses.’
The first thing Zhou Bai thought of was how convenient this thing was to conceal one’s identity, and then he wondered if he could use it to secretly sell Heavenly Demon corpses. He had long coveted the bodies of Kong Zheng’s group of Heavenly Demons.
However, after thinking it over, he shook his head. The Heavenly Demons were under strict watch and sealed; although the ugly image was formidable, it was not invincible. Even if others couldn’t see you, they could still attack you.
Under the mosaic coverage, although pinpoint accuracy on Zhou Bai was difficult within a small range, facing a large-scale attack, Zhou Bai still had to endure it.
So, after thinking it over, Zhou Bai decided against it.
Then, Zhou Bai looked towards the next dim divine chart, and a faint message entered his mind.
’Next layer, the wane chart, can be generated upon breakthrough to the third realm; requires 100,000 laziness points.’
"The next divine chart is about obtaining the original dao collection 03, stepping into the third realm."
