After the restriction within the Ice Lotus disappeared, the golden starlight touched the formation eye at the Sword Spirit’s back.
After a beep sound, the Sword Spirit rebooted.
The gravity-laden inscriptions on the Sword Spirit dissipated, and a humming sound filled the ears of the three present.
Feeling a bit noisy, Zhang Ze turned and asked, "How long will this reboot take?"
Recalling, Wei Zhuang said, "Hmm... I’m not exactly sure, but it shouldn’t exceed a quarter of an hour."
Looking at the Lu Tianming model Sword Spirit refreshing and rebooting, Zhang Ze suddenly felt a bit redundant.
So, he greeted Sect Leader Lu and Old Ascender before leaving the cave.
Having nothing else to do, he decided to see what Li was up to.
He was stunned as soon as he went out.
Because he saw Valley City.
Valley City appeared before him like ruins; a collapsed city, with a tower ford from rubble—trenches he had made with his face.
Everything was complete.
Ti-travel reversal? Hallucination? Or maybe the cave didn’t actually host Sect Leader Lu but a long-necked, furry, giant maggot?
As Zhang Ze thought more about it, feeling sothing was strange, Little Fuji climbed onto his foot unnoticed, raised its right hand, attracting Zhang Ze’s attention.
"Hi!
"What are you doing?"
Zhang Ze picked up Little Fuji and held it in his palm, "What’s with this city, why is it here? Valley City is a hundred miles away..."
Little Fuji said, "Oh, this? You asked us to help find sothing, but there was too much stuff in the city to find at once, so Li swallowed the entire city and moved it over here to look slowly."
Finishing, Little Fuji put its hands on its hips, "Aren’t we amazing?"
Little Fuji was very happy, very proud, even though it seed unrelated to it.
"Amazing." Zhang Ze gently stroked Little Fuji.
At this mont, besides Li, Su La’s clansn were also released into the city, borrowing Thousand chanism Pavilion magical artifacts from Li to help clear the ruins, searching for relics and clues.
However, those Thousand chanism Pavilion magical artifacts seed a bit too advanced for the Half Deer People.
Zhang Ze watched the fellow using a jackhamr to scratch his back, treating its warning beeps as music, and wiped his sweat away.
Luckily, he wasn’t the safety officer.
"Little Fuji, go keep an eye on them, ensure they act properly, tell them if they don’t follow the rules at the construction site, they’ll be sent back into the Beast Taming Ring..."
But before he finished speaking, he saw Li walking by with an old master stride from afar, using a jackhamr to pick his teeth.
After picking his teeth, Li shoved the jackhamr into its mouth, chewing loudly, but halfway through got stuck again, taking out another jackhamr to continue the endless cycle...
Zhang Ze, "..."
The saying goes, a crooked beam will lead to a crooked brace; this is how lousy safety production ends.
Little Fuji patted Zhang Ze’s wrist to comfort him.
"Don’t worry, I’ll watch over them."
After speaking, Little Fuji showcased its Divine Mask impersonation technique.
This ti, it transford into Li.
Transford into a small old man, Fuji casually picked up an iron pipe from the ground, striding towards Li.
Zhang Ze, "..."
Feeling suffocated by the fresh air, Zhang Ze decided to return to the cave to watch the Sword Spirit reboot.
However, upon returning to the cave, he saw Lu Yuzhou and Wei Zhuang bickering.
The broken Lu Tianming model Sword Spirit had already rebooted, once again transforming into Lu Tianming’s appearance, no longer displaying text, with closed eyes, quiet as if dead.
Transford into a starlight little monster, Lu Yuzhou crawled around the Ice Lotus, using tendrils penetrating the lotus to explore ’Lu Tianming’ in the colorful robe.
Wei Zhuang stood nearby, occasionally using the steel fork he used on Zhang Ze to poke Sect Leader Lu, indicating she shouldn’t be so lewd.
"Co on, I’m doing serious work. Besides, this isn’t truly our teacher’s uncle’s ancestor; I’m researching it, she wouldn’t lose a piece of at."
Fed up with being jabbed, Lu Yuzhou snatched the steel fork, snapped it in two, and discarded it.
But before Lu Yuzhou’s salty pig tendrils could touch ’Lu Tianming’s’ face in the colorful robe, Wei Zhuang pulled out a sword sheath from her sleeve, squeezed it into a steel fork, and began poking her again.
Zhang Ze, "..."
Feeling speechless, Lu Yuzhou jumped off the Ice Lotus, explained with arms akimbo, "I’m truly not touching randomly; I’m examining things!
"This Dongqi Sword Spirit is different from the Sword Sect’s current Sword Spirits; its information and data aren’t stored in the central Sword Core, but scattered across its body along artificial ridians.
"I have to touch to piece these fragnts together. It’s all your interference; otherwise, I’d soon restore the lost Great Brightness Heaven-opening Sword."
"Can’t you scan a code? Take off its skin first, turn it back to default before operating," Zhang Ze suggested from the sidelines.
"Tried it, doesn’t work," Lu Yuzhou shook her head, "This face itself is information; it’s the visible manifestation of the persona fragnts imported into the Sword Spirit. It’s fundantal to maintaining the Sword Spirit’s stability.
"If this face is gone, not only would it lose control and overflow with text as earlier, the scattered information across its body would also be locked due to lack of verification."
After finishing, Lu Yuzhou snatched the steel fork from Wei Zhuang’s hand, snapped it into two again, muttering loudly enough for everyone present.
"It’s so annoying; Sword Sect’s so pretentious."
anwhile, while Sect Leader Lu muttered softly, Zhang Ze didn’t respond; his gaze passed over the dual-wielding steel forks’ broken bodies of Sect Leader Lu, staring directly at the Ice Lotus.
