"Weaponry system, normal!"
"Data scanning function, normal!"
"Data analysis function, normal!"
...
With each confirmation of normal, the voice of Ginsengfruit finally carried a hint of excitent, great, everything was normal.
Ginsengfruit felt a bit embarrassed as it looked at Yun Ran, "Host, I must have been too nervous, that’s why I had that illusion."
Yun Ran outwardly acknowledged Ginsengfruit’s words, but inside she felt a twinge of foreboding.
Just because Ginsengfruit’s self-check turned up nothing doesn’t an there wasn’t a problem.
In fact, Yun Ran’s understanding of Ginsengfruit was even deeper than Ginsengfruit’s understanding of itself, much deeper.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t trust Ginsengfruit so much.
"It’s fine, go get ready. We’re going night climbing tonight, bring plenty of food and drinks."
"Got it, Host, I’m on it."
Yun Ran watched as Ginsengfruit hopped away, imdiately severing the empathetic link between her and Ginsengfruit.
anwhile, she rummaged through her bag for a long while until she finally retrieved the Magic Artifact that Ginsengfruit once inhabited.
Sighing lightly, Yun Ran cut her finger and let a drop of blood fall onto the dimd Magic Artifact.
Yun Ran ford a seal with her hands, a complex array appearing beneath her feet.
"Contract, release!"
As Yun Ran’s voice faded, the array beneath her feet slowly rged into the Magic Artifact.
Yun Ran’s face paled slightly, and even her hand clenched around the Magic Artifact showing bulging veins due to exertion.
Just now, she severed the contract with Ginsengfruit.
Back then, Young Uncle was particularly disdainful of Ginsengfruit, almost lting down the Magic Artifact to forge a new one.
It was Yun Ran who saved Ginsengfruit as if she wanted to ta it.
To this day, Yun Ran rembers Young Uncle’s words: For Magic Artifacts of unknown origin, even if you want to contract them, always be cautious just in case you’re deceived without understanding how it happened.
At that ti, Yun Ran, young and fearless, with exceptional skills, often felt Young Uncle had seen too much darkness and thus distrusted everyone.
Fortunately, she listened to advice.
When she signed the contract with Ginsengfruit, she used Qingfeng Temple’s secret technique, allowing her to sever the contract with Ginsengfruit anyti without any cost.
However, even though she severed the contract with Ginsengfruit now, it didn’t an she genuinely suspected Ginsengfruit of intending harm.
It’s just a gut feeling: if Ginsengfruit’s self-check found no problems, it indicates the Magic Artifact housing Ginsengfruit indeed harbors so unknown secrets.
Later, they are heading to Five Emperors Mountain, which not only holds the Heavenly Book but also the depths and origins of the five dragon veins necessitating caution.
Ginsengfruit, upon leaving, suddenly severed its connection with Yun Ran, freezing for a mont.
Intending to return and ask the Host what happened, Ginsengfruit recalled previous disconnections were not a big deal.
Consequently, prioritizing preparations was deed more important.
Before long, it was night. Yun Ran donned her climbing gear, joining the crowd at the foot of Five Emperors Mountain.
Dragon Spirit observed the scene, couldn’t help muttering softly, "So many dense crowds, this is completely like climbing at a turtle’s pace!"
If there weren’t so many people, they could have climbed quickly.
However, upon inspection, the area closely resembled the mories of the five dragon veins from the inheritance.
Yet monts ago, Dragon Spirit carefully sensed—there was no dragon spirit presence here.
Could it be these dragon veins haven’t spawned Dragon Spirits yet? That shouldn’t be the case; they safeguard the Heavenly Book, shouldn’t be useless.
Dragon Spirit had too many questions, yet clearly, there was no one to answer him.
As Yun Ran’s foot stepped onto Five Emperors Mountain’s stairway, she was overco with a sense of déjà vu.
Wanqi Yu looked ahead, seeing only a sea of heads, expressing his wonder: "It’s unimaginable that there would be so many people here."
At this mont, Xuan Chu was alert in all directions, yet wherever he looked, he saw only dense crowds.
Fortunately, there were plenty of streetlights here, otherwise, in such a dense crowd, who knows what kind of stampede might occur.
They were slowly swept along with the crowd, half an hour passing.
Many tourists around them gradually fell behind while their group remained composed.
"If we keep going this slow, who knows when we’ll reach the summit. Perhaps I should check for a shortcut."
As they approached the next junction, Wanqi Yu left the crowd, heading for the small path.
Regrettably, many had the sa thought as Wanqi Yu; even the side path was crowded.
This mont, Wanqi Yu was genuinely speechless.
In the end, he returned, "That small path is also crowded and lacks streetlights; many bring their own lights."
Experiencing the crush of the crowd for the first ti felt truly overwhelming.
Dragon Spirit nudged Xuan Chu’s arm, "Do you sense anything peculiar?"
Xuan Chu shook his head.
Not ntioning the Heavenly Book’s treasures cloaked in concealnt. The crowd’s mixed aura made discernnt impossible.
At this mont, Yun Ran closed her eyes, absorbing that increasingly vivid déjà vu.
However, she was certain—the original host never visited here before. This sensation was bizarrely unsettling.
Ginsengfruit approached Yun Ran, "Host, does this place seem familiar to you?"
Yun Ran’s gaze turned profound. She had thought so, maybe coincidence; now Ginsengfruit shared the feeling—it definitely wasn’t.
Nearing the first resting area—a large patio with many sprawled breathless.
Normally, Yun Ran and her companions need no rest; yet presently, Yun Ran found the need to understand the source of the déjà vu.
Otherwise, she couldn’t settle her mind, feeling perpetually vulnerable.
anwhile, at the Special Administration Bureau, upon hearing Dragon Spirit’s words, chaos ensued.
The news quickly reached Xie Xuzhi’s ears; unfortunately, he’s abroad, unable to return swiftly.
Nonetheless, he issued orders, deploying elite squads for comprehensive defense.
