With an inexplicable sense of hope, he clicked on the final option.
——"Do you want to end the ga?"
Cold and unexpectedly different from other prompts, it very clearly told him what this option corresponded to.
Hesitating for a mont, Gu Mo’s expression changed inexplicably. He wasn’t quite sure if exiting the ga ant terminating the task, leaving the current instance, or completely ending the entire "ga." If it was the latter, in what way would it end everything?
Would he wake up to find himself in reality, with nothing from the system and instances existing, like having a strange dream?
Or would all ga-like rules and powers simply disappear, and he wouldn’t even be able to leave the instance, returning to a safe real world? Even more sadly, he might just "end the ga" and end his entire life.
Thinking of this, Gu Mo beca despondent. This unreliable system always played beyond reason, and he really dared not take this risk at this point.
"Hey, Brother Gu Mo, are you okay?"
Until Fujikichiro’s sowhat urgent voice ca from behind, bringing him back from his despondency to reality. At the sa ti, he realized he had squatted by the river for too long. So, Gu Mo quickly gathered his thoughts, waved his hand behind him without looking back: "I’m fine, I’m fine. I just squatted too long, my legs are a bit numb, I’ll be right over..."
Forget it, better not to touch that final option.
At least for now, everything seems to be developing in a good direction. The unreliable system has gone from completely unusable to being able to function to so extent, and now it even fixed so bugs that persisted yesterday...
Gu Mo thought as optimistically as possible, thinking that maybe in a few days, his golden finger might fully complete self-diagnosis and self-repair, and completely return to normal, who knows? Then he would not have to be so high-strung all the ti.
He re-equipped his only skill, picked up the water-filled leather pouch from the ground, turned, and left the riverside, heading back to the carriage.
......
As the long night passed, all was silent.
There wasn’t much to talk about, just rushing through the wilderness overnight, inevitably encountering attacks from Desolate Soul Demons. But each wave t their doom, not even seeing how the maiden’s sword light slashed them down.
The sun rose from the east, gradually moving to the highest point in the sky, then slowly set as ti passed.
As the sunset glowed in the west, dragging the shadows on the earth long and thin, the three-person group who had been traveling continuously for two days and nights finally arrived at Rice Leaf Mountain City, located on Mino Plain. The castle built by the mountain had three inner and outer layers, and the landmark structure, a completely white three-story five-stage Heaven-Defending Tower, could be seen from miles away.
Surveying everything before him, Gu Mo felt a bit emotional. Although it had magical elents, the customs and conditions of this historical period were vividly present.
If it wasn’t for the phone automatically shutting down because it hadn’t been charged for two days, he would have liked to take pictures of everything along the way.
While entering the city, it was apparent that Fujikichiro was indeed an acquaintance, perhaps holding so status. The soldiers guarding the city recognized him, exchanged a few words, paid a few coins, and let them through.
"I will now go pay respects to Lord Saito Dosan. Brother Gu Mo, Miss Ah Xiu, would you like to co with ? If you don’t want to, you can rest here, but I still hope you can join , at least to let Lord Dao San get familiar with you, leave an impression..."
Bringing them to a relatively clean and modest longhouse in the inner city, Fujikichiro laughed and rubbed his hands, inviting them to sit and rest while saying this. His eyes seed to light up, as if he already saw that everything was ready, just waiting for the Lord of Mino to give him a chance to rise high.
"..."
"..."
The black-haired maiden lightly frowned, looking in a certain direction, then at Fujikichiro.
"Oh oh oh, look at my mory... Let’s go see the doctor first, co on, Brother Gu Mo!" Imdiately realizing it, Fujikichiro silently cursed himself for not being smart. At that ti, he used this reason to persuade Miss Ah Xiu, so how could he forget now?
Of course, he couldn’t be blad. After all, another day and night had passed, and Gu Mo seed to be fine—
Though he slept another long sleep along the way, there really was no issue, which he had clearly stated before sleeping.
"No, no, really no need. I know my condition, you don’t need to worry..." Gu Mo waved his hand continuously. He didn’t want to see any doctor; it’s not just that he’s fine, but even if he were sick, the dical standards of this era were a bit hard to accept.
"Let’s first go et that... ahem, et Lord Dao San..."
He said, then suddenly rembered sothing and looked at the black-haired maiden.
"Right, Ah Xiu, later please don’t cover your face, it’s not very polite..."
Of course, politeness was just an excuse, primarily because in the original plot, Ah Xiu seed to have her face covered, so Saito Dosan couldn’t recognize her... Otherwise, since Hidechika and Yoshitaka were twins, there’s no way Saito Dosan couldn’t find out.
Not knowing this is fine, but since he knew, Gu Mo certainly wanted to utilize it, after all, connections are an important advantage. Regardless of Ah Xiu’s Combat Power or her own background status, she is undoubtedly a bigwig.
This is Mino, after all, and Ah Xiu is originally the Princess Mino.
Well, it’s not that he wants to always freeload, focusing on just one, it’s just... too tempting.
