The examinees who had come from afar were a lot more relaxed after the fourth round. They were already here, and all they needed to do was endure the last round of interviews.
Interview. This was an important stage for a mentor to choose a student. Whether a student could gain the favor of a mentor and be chosen by their ideal mentor was an important stage for many people. However, for those who had already contacted their teachers, this last round was just a formality.
For example, Chuck had been in contact with that old teacher for a long time, and the two of them had a relatively close relationship. As long as Chuck survived the five rounds, he would be able to leave with that old teacher after the selection test was over. He wouldn't have to go through the interview and wait for the results like the others.
"Have you made your choice, Silin?" A teacher asked.
Silin sorted out the examinee materials in his hands and answered, "Mn, the third interview area."
"The third interview area?" A nearby teacher looked at the examinee materials in his hands and murmured, "There's no special seedling there, is there …"
Ivia was assigned to the first interview area. Chuck and a few other examinees with top scores were assigned to the first interview area, so a lot of teachers were fighting to be assigned there. However, there was a limit to the number of teachers in each interview area, so it was impossible for everyone to go there.
Other than the first interview area, which was "crowded with experts", the other interview areas were evenly distributed. Some of the examinees were at the top of the rankings, and some were at the bottom of the rankings. The teachers who weren't assigned to the first interview area were a little displeased. At the same time, they secretly decided to take care of the examinees they were satisfied with in the next interview area.
Guan Feng's incident had dealt a huge blow to the teachers, so unlike in the past, the teachers were very proactive this time. They all wanted to snatch an excellent student and show them off.
After the reform, there were indeed quite a number of students who satisfied the mentors. Most of the mentors had already been selected, and the ones who came after were just a formality. Those who could persevere through the fifth examination, no matter how bad their results were, were still better than those who quit halfway. Some teachers had even contacted some of the students before the selection test, but most of them weren't contacted.
They thought that Silin would go to the first interview area because of Guan Feng's support. Who would've thought that the kid would go to the third interview area? Was Guan Feng not planning to accept any more students?
It made sense. Guan Feng never cared about the selection test when he accepted students. He'd just take them in as soon as they caught his eye. Sigh, this was the benefit of being in the upper echelons. They could take shortcuts and strike first.
Silin walked straight to the interview hall in the third interview area after he picked out the candidates' information from the third interview area.
The candidates outside the Third Interview Hall were originally a little dispirited because of what happened in the first area. Those who could enter the first area definitely had no problems, and the tutors were definitely good. However, when they saw Silin enter the third interview area, the dejected people became spirited. This was especially true for those who had done well in shooting. It was as if they were looking at Guan Feng standing right in front of them. A chance!
The interview hall was circular. The mentors in charge of the interview hall sat in a circle, and the candidate who came for the interview sat in the middle. The eyes of the mentors were all focused on the candidate. Not everyone could guarantee a good mental state.
The aura was too strong, and the pressure was too great.
However, very quickly, this sense of nervousness was slowly blurred by the inconceivable questions raised by the tutors. Compared to the questions that they hadn't thought about for their entire lives, the candidates felt like they had lived their lives in vain.
The pressure and awkwardness of not being able to answer a question. Those who were mentally stronger could come up with some nonsense, those who were straightforward chose to answer "I don't know" with a red face, and those who were reserved couldn't come up with a single word even after a long time.
Compared to the constipated expressions of the candidates, the mentors were all … smiling without saying a word.
In reality, the mentors all had a scale in their hearts. They had already made their choice based on the responses of the candidates. They didn't expect the candidates to answer these questions. They just wanted to see the candidates' personalities reflected in the questions. Of course, it was better if the candidates could answer the questions.
Some mentors liked to choose those who were good-looking. Among the students they had mentored, the men were handsome and the women were beautiful. All of them were very eye-catching. For example, the mentors who focused on engineering and application liked to recruit men because they had good stamina and could do hard work. Even if they recruited women, they preferred to recruit them because they were strong and healthy.
As the candidates finished their interviews one by one, the mentors had already confirmed their names. Silin was the only one who was left blank. Moreover, Celine did not ask too many questions during the interview of the previous candidates. Let the other mentors fight for it.
The mentor sitting next to Silin glanced at the blank name list under Silin's hand and thought: Guan Feng really doesn't want any more students. After all, one Tang Qiuqiu was more than enough. There really wasn't a single candidate in this term who could compare to that girl when it came to marksmanship, not even the popular Ivia.
The door to the interview hall opened again, and a girl who looked very thin and weak walked in. She looked very ordinary, and her clothes were very simple. She looked a little timid, and the atmosphere inside the hall made her feel very nervous. Although she tried her best to control it, her body couldn't help but tremble uncontrollably.
She was also one of the people who had risen to prominence in the "return" forum. However, she wasn't as open as the previous people.
Rong Ruo, twenty years old, commoner, owned a small accessory shop. Other information about her was very ordinary. However, Rong Ruo's bounty points were very high in the "return" forum. She could even answer a lot of questions in some non-bounty areas. Rong Ruo's education was limited. Later on, she gave up on continuing to study due to her family's financial situation. Although she gave up on studying, she still focused on self-study.
Silin chose this interview area mainly because of this person. Silin had paid attention to the people recommended on the "return" forum. He had observed the replies and movements of these people on the "return" forum. However, this person, Rong Ruo, made Silin very curious, especially the video that Rong Ruo put up when she replied to some questions.
This was because she opened a small accessory shop. The scale of that accessory shop was pitifully small, not to mention on the planet where she came from, even on the street where she lived. The accessories in the shop were all made by her herself, which saved a lot of costs. Moreover, there was a batch of accessories that were unique to her, which other shops couldn't get their hands on.
The shape of those accessories was very regular, as if they were naturally formed. There wasn't even a trace of cutting. If those accessories were machine-processed, Silin didn't believe it. The price of a machine-processed to that degree was equivalent to the price of several of her small shops. In Rong Ruo's small shop, the price of each accessory was very low and very cheap. The aristocrats just heard the price and didn't even bother to look at it.
At this moment, Rong Ruo, who was standing in the center of the field, couldn't answer a single question. She stood there awkwardly with her head down, not daring to look at the mentors. Many of the mentors weren't interested in asking questions. After all, they were tired after interviewing so many people.
When the scene was a little stagnant, Silin spoke. "Most of the questions you answered on the" return "forum were about molecular bond energy. According to your education level, shouldn't you be able to answer these questions? Are they all self-taught?"
"Yes … Yes …"
Rong Ruo was originally very depressed because she couldn't answer a single question from the mentors. Her eyes were red, but she held back her tears. Her father was still waiting in a hotel on a planet in the Imperial Capital. She knew very well how her parents would feel if she was eliminated. Even if they didn't say it, Rong Ruo knew it. Unexpectedly, another mentor asked a question.
Before the interview, some people said that there were some hidden meanings in the interview. The more interested the mentors were, the more questions they would ask, and vice versa. If no one was interested in you, no one would want to accept you. They would just ask a few basic questions as a routine, and after that, they wouldn't ask anymore.
Rong Ruo raised her head and looked at the person who asked the question. She knew the young man sitting there. Many people were talking about him, including herself, and the group of examinees who "returned" from the "return" were very grateful to him. When she was in the dormitory, her roommates and the girls in the surrounding dormitories often talked about Silin. Rong Ruo felt that if the things everyone talked about were true, such a person shouldn't be able to get close to, right?
Seeing Silin looking at her, Rong Ruo's face turned even redder.
"You have a" Water "series of accessories in your shop, can I have a look?" Silin asked. When Rong Ruo came in, he had noticed the crystal bracelet on Rong Ruo's hand.
"Yes … Yes!"
Rong Ruo hurriedly took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it over with both hands. Her hands were still shaking when she did so.
Silin accepted the bracelet and smiled at Rong Ruo. "Don't be nervous, you did very well."
The surrounding mentors looked at Silin strangely. At first, they thought that Silin had only saved her because Rong Ruo had "returned" from the "return". They didn't think that he would start looking at the bracelet again. Is he interested in this examinee? But …
The mentors looked at the ordinary-looking Rong Ruo again, and then checked her information. She was mediocre in every aspect, or more accurately, she performed very poorly in every aspect, and her marksmanship was the worst of the worst. After four rounds of tests, the written exam was the only one that saved her a little bit of face.
Guan Feng would never accept a student like this. All the mentors present were certain of this.
Cillin ignored the strange looks the mentors were giving him and stared at the bracelet on his wrist. The bracelet was made of transparent crystals the size of mung beans connected together, and these small crystals were of different shapes. Some were prismatic, some were star-shaped, and they were all very regular shapes. When he held them in his hand, he felt like he was holding a stream of water. Silin analyzed the composition of the material. Unsurprisingly, most of these "crystals" were made up of water molecules.
The giant sea beast crystals he saw in the underwater city of Sea Paradise were very similar to this one.
The discovery made Silin very happy, and the smile on his face grew wider. The mentors around him grew weirder and weirder, and Rong Ruo grew more and more nervous. She couldn't figure out what Silin was trying to say. Every girl had a Cinderella dream, but Rong Ruo was much more rational than most girls after experiencing so much.
"Can you tell me more about this" Water "series accessory?" Silin asked.
Rong Ruo opened her mouth to say something, but stopped herself in the end. She seemed to be hesitating about something, and her face was bright red as she clenched her fists tightly.
"It's fine if you can't answer." Silin handed the bracelet back to her, "Do your best."
Silin nodded at the person in charge of the interview room, indicating that he was done with his questioning. The person in charge looked at the other mentors and saw that none of them had any intention of answering. He said, "Next."
After Rong Ruo walked out of the room with a pale face, the mentors asked Silin while the next candidate was still waiting, "Silin, is Guan Feng looking to recruit more people?"
"No, Coach Guan doesn't mean that. Plus, he's always the one who does the hiring himself."
"That's true." The mentors who knew Guan Feng nodded in agreement. "But you seem interested in that girl just now?"
Silin added Rong Ruo's name to the list in his hand and said jokingly, "I'm taking this one. Don't fight me for her."
Who the hell would fight you for her? However, out of respect for Silin and Guan Feng, the mentors answered tactfully.
"Don't worry, we're already at our limit. Any more and we'll run out of energy."
It was only at this moment that the mentors remembered that Silin was qualified to mentor students. Although he hadn't graduated yet, he was an honorary scholar of the RAS. Theoretically speaking, he did have the right to mentor students. It was just that he couldn't mentor too many people due to the limited number of spots.
There weren't many candidates left, and the interview ended quickly.
When everything was over, all the candidates had to do was wait for their communicators to be distributed.
Most of the candidates who had passed the five rounds of tests were allowed to stay. Many of the mentors from the affiliated schools weren't here yet, so the number of candidates was about the same.
On her way back to her dorm, Rong Ruo saw a lot of candidates who had finished their interviews discussing whether they would be notified by AF1 or AF2. They were gossiping about the mentors while they were at it. They weren't worried because they had good overall scores. Some of them were packing their things and preparing to leave. They were the type who had received the notice beforehand, which meant that they had contacted their mentors beforehand.
When she returned to her dorm, the other four girls were also discussing the same thing. When they saw Rong Ruo, they asked, "How was it? Did any of the mentors pay special attention to you?"
"Rong Ruo, you're in the third test area, right? I heard that Silin is there too. Did he ask you any questions? "
Two of the girls came over and asked curiously. The other two stood where they were with mockery in their eyes. As nobles, they felt that a lowly person like Rong Ruo had no right to be here. If it wasn't for the reform of the system, which commoner without a backer would come to this place? However, being able to come here once was not to be regretted.
As the communicators were distributed one by one, the first two noblewomen received it, followed by the other two. Rong Ruo was the last one to receive it. This time, the system distributed the communicators according to the final score. Rong Ruo was the last one to receive it.
Seeing that Rong Ruo also had a communicator, the other four girls looked over.
"I heard that those who passed the five rounds of tests will receive a communicator," one of the noblewomen said. This was the explanation for why Rong Ruo was able to receive a communicator.
"Quick, let's see if it's from AF1 or AF2, and which mentor!" one of the girls urged.
Rong Ruo took a deep breath and turned on the communicator.
A holographic screen popped up. On the holographic screen was a huge cat's head.
"Meow, you're Rong Ruo, right?"
The five people in the room were speechless.
They had long heard about this cat. It wasn't just the cat's actions in the fourth round. Most importantly, it was Silin's pet!
It was Silin's pet!
For a moment, the other four didn't know what to feel.
"Hey, say something, Cillin. This woman isn't a mute, is she?" The gray cat turned its head and shouted loudly in a certain direction.
"I, I, I am …" Rong Ruo quickly answered.
The gray cat on the light screen moved closer to take a look. Its cat head looked even bigger than before and took up the entire screen, "You're Cillin's student from now on. Mn, you're also my student. I'll protect you no matter what happens!"
Rong Ruo: "…"
Huimao ignored Rong Ruo's silence. He was currently immersed in the joy of having a student too. He continued, "Silin doesn't have time right now. I'll come find you later."
Then, Huimao disconnected the call and looked at Silin who was on a call outside the door. "Silin, I'm going to pick up my disciple!"
Silin waved his hand to indicate that he understood.
Huimao jumped out and followed the signal to find Rong Ruo.
Silin was very busy right now. He was busy with his communicator.
Ever since Silin reported Rong Ruo's name after the interview, the news that Silin had taken in a girl who didn't even look like much had spread.
Many people tried to talk to Silin. Gen Xingming and the others even came to inquire about the situation out of curiosity. Even Genya asked about it himself. It was only after Silin repeatedly stated that he wasn't looking for a wife and was only taking in a student that they suspiciously disconnected the call.
"Silin …" Chuck was conflicted after he said the name. Should he call him mentor? Or should he call him by name? Neither seemed right.
"Just call him senior brother. We're all in AF1 anyway." Silin put away the communicator and said to Chuck.
"Alright. Senior brother Silin, I'll see you in AF1."
Chuck bid farewell to Silin and left. There was a flying car waiting for him outside the dormitory to pick him up. The other people in the dormitory had left a long time ago. Chuck had purposely delayed his departure because he wanted to chat with Silin for a bit. However, Silin kept talking until everyone had left.
Silin looked around the empty dormitory room, put on his backpack, and closed the door.
Another batch of students had left the dormitory room.
After picking up Rong Ruo, Silin returned to AF1.
Since he was an honorary scholar of the RAS, Silin was given his own lab. He was the one who chose the location of his lab, and Silin's lab was located in a non-teaching area outside of AF1's main campus. Not everyone had a lab and training ground as big as Guan Feng's.
Although the treatment wasn't as good as Guan Feng's, Silin was satisfied. This was all he needed right now.
Although Silin's lab was a lot smaller than Guan Feng's and the academicians', it was still around a thousand square meters in size.
Before this, Silin hadn't used it because he didn't have an independent project of his own. The Zebra Virus didn't count because he used Black Viper's stuff. Now that Silin thought that he was starting a new project, it had nothing to do with the virus or guns. It was his own private project, and the results of the project belonged to Silin alone. Of course, he had to bear all the research costs himself.
Rong Ruo came to Silin's lab after arranging the dormitory rooms. It was called a lab, but in her opinion, it was more like a factory than anything else.
On the way here, Cillin had already told Rong Ruo that the main reason he was paying attention to her was because of her technology to create the 'Water' series of accessories. As for whether or not Rong Ruo would hand over the technology, Cillin didn't force her. Even if Rong Ruo asked for a high price, Cillin would still pay for it. However, Rong Ruo didn't ask for a price. Instead, she took out the technology of her own accord.
"I discovered it by accident, and I'm using it to feed my family. Now that I'm in AF1 and getting paid, there's no need for me to keep this little technology to myself."
The reason Rong Ruo didn't mention it during the interview was because she was prepared to give up the "Water" accessory technology if she didn't make it to the selection. Rong Ruo was already very grateful that Silin was willing to let her enter AF1.
Rong Ruo had first melted a few ores in order to create a reagent. Then, she melted them with a solvent and heated them up. Due to some matters, she didn't have the time to create the reagent, so she put them all into the compression capsule decompression furnace. When she came back and opened the furnace door, she found that the crystal that came out of the bottle was not the usual prismatic shape, but a dodecahedron!
However, this dodecahedron crystal was not stable. After the furnace door was opened, it quickly dissipated. If Rong Ruo hadn't been paying attention to the crystal-like crystals that came out of the bottle, she wouldn't have noticed it.
Since then, Rong Ruo started to research in this area. She made crystals of various shapes and sizes. In order to reduce the cost, she finally chose the lowest cost material, water. This was the origin of the "Water" accessory series.
"That's why I said, there's no need to feel inferior. You're not worse than anyone else." Silin treated Rong Ruo more like a senior, not a mentor.
Silin suggested that Rong Ruo close the accessory shop at home first, and reopen it later. Rong Ruo didn't mind it. Business was not good anyway. Those with a bit of money wouldn't be interested in those cheap accessories, and those without money wouldn't bother with those fancy ones. Rong Ruo opened the shop because she accidentally discovered the technique. So, based on the current situation, it wasn't a big deal to close the shop. Silin had already given her a sum of money in advance. It was enough for her family to live a good life, so Rong Ruo wasn't worried anymore. Moreover, because Rong Ruo had entered AF1, her family was treated well by the people on the planet.
"Silin, when are you going back? Xi Kai asked this morning. He's ready and waiting to depart. "Huimao was lying on a shelf, basking in the sun, licking his paws as he spoke.
"Let's wait for a while. I'll deal with this first."
Silin was busy dealing with the things in his hands. He had originally planned to leave in a few days, but plans couldn't keep up with the changes. Rong Ruo's technique had benefited Silin a lot, and at least he had a general direction.
Rong Ruo's class hadn't started yet. Originally, she wanted to help Czedow, but she soon realized that she couldn't be of much help when it came to the actual operation. Rong Ruo's technique was like a foundation, and after Silin quickly grasped it, he had extended it to a wider range of branches. Rong Ruo didn't really understand these things, so she had been busy replenishing her knowledge recently. Czedow copied some of the contents from the library for Rong Ruo to read. The things that Czedow could finish reading in an hour were enough for Rong Ruo to read for ten days. It wasn't that Rong Ruo was slow, it was the speed of a normal person. Not everyone could read as fast as Czedow.
Ten days later.
Inside a three hundred square meter space in Silin's lab, Silin had loaded a special pistol with a bullet that looked like a transparent water droplet. The bullet was shining with water ripples.
There was a leaf that had just been plucked from a tree fifty meters away from Silin.
Bang!
The bullet flew out of the muzzle in Silin's hand and headed straight for the leaf. The leaf that was propped up by a thin needle wasn't penetrated by the bullet. Instead, it was swiftly enveloped by water light. After the water light adhered to the leaf, it grew thicker at a visible rate.
Silin looked at the instrument in the lab and saw that the humidity index was dropping rapidly.
Five seconds later, the reaction on the leaf stopped.
Huimao jumped over and circled around the leaf twice. "It is very similar to the one under the sea!"
Rong Ruo's technique was to synthesize all kinds of small ornaments in water. The success rate was lower than that. Silin had used part of the information in this technique to develop this "water" bullet.
The original leaf was now tightly wrapped in a layer of "crystal". It looked like a sealed specimen, just like the sea beast crystal specimen he saw at the underwater city.
Huimao raised his paw and touched the leaf with his paw. It was cold, but not as cold as ice. Its temperature was like ordinary water, except that it was a lot harder than crystal. Huimao took a bite and chewed loudly.
"Not bad. Want to try the next one? "Huimao asked.
"Mn."
Silin rebalanced the humidity in the lab and switched to a different bullet. This bullet was the same size as the previous one, but the ripples on its surface were faster.
Czedow took out a small bottle with a flea inside. Wheeze had gotten it from King Kong. As expected of King Kong, even the fleas on his body were much bigger than normal ones. How much blood did he drink?!
After Silin's signal, Czedow opened the bottle cap.
Shing!
The flea the size of half a thumb rushed out the moment the bottle cap was opened. However, what welcomed it was a bullet covered in ripples.
Crack —
A hard crystalline block fell to the ground.
The flea that was sealed inside was still in the same position as when it leaped up, vivid and lifelike.
Huimao hurriedly jumped over and took a bite to test the texture. "It's much harder than the last one."
Then, Silin switched to a few more "water" bullets and experimented with a couple of more dangerous parasites. The results were pretty good.
There were no large sea beasts in the lab for them to experiment with. Although the "water" bullets weren't perfect yet, and the bullet's speed and hardness needed to be improved, the current results were already very satisfactory.
It was a great weapon, but to Wheeze, it was using a low-level "water" bomb to make food. In Wheeze's words, it was called "sandwiched fish biscuits".
Unlike Rong Ruo's accessories, the process of making "water" bullets into "water" bullets wasn't easy, and there were many layers of processing that required high precision. Even the lowest-level "Water" Bomb would cost three digits if calculated according to the cost of production. It didn't look like a lot, but it was a huge sum when summed up. Silin didn't have the capital to let Huimao squander money just yet. The guy had to use several thousand "water" bullets to make a bag of fish biscuits.
The texture was there, but the money was gone too. After seeing Silin's bill, Huimao hesitated for a while and gave up on the idea of using "water" bullets to make fish biscuits. Well, that was a temporary plan.
"Meow, when I have the money, I'll use top-grade" water "bullets to make fish biscuits!" Huimao vowed.
"Let's talk about it when you have the money." Silin flicked Huimao's cat ears. The money this guy earned from the selection test not long ago was eaten up in half a day. What Huussart said to Huimao was true — poverty comes from eating.
That night, Huimao complained to Black Viper, who was far away on another planet. Black Viper listened to him for a long time. Ever since Black Viper contacted Huimao, Huimao often went to chat with the big Python, but this was the first time the big Python didn't know how to answer him. The cat's appetite was too big, and its menu was so wide that it made people's hair stand on end! Not even the Mist Bodhisattva Imperial Family would research "water" bullets to make food for Huimao!
The big Python didn't tell anyone about the "water" bullets, not even the Mist Bodhisattva Imperial Family. He believed that Silin wouldn't threaten the Mist Bodhisattva Empire. However, he did tell the emperor about it. "Silin will become the second Guan Feng. He may even surpass him."
Guan Feng's contributions to the empire weren't just limited to the Purgatory Thunder Snake series. He had designed a lot of military weapons, just that no one knew about it.
The day after Huimao complained to the big Python, the big Python sent someone to deliver a card to him. The amount of money on Kari's card was enough to make Huimao drool, but he still returned the card.
"I want to make my own money!"
While the big Python was admiring the cat's backbone, Huimao turned around and pretended to be pitiful in front of Silin. He asked Silin to buy cat food for him because he'd run out of food.
Silin poked Huimao's round belly. "Your appetite has grown again."
Huimao sighed. "I've been using my brain too much lately. Mental work takes up a lot of energy."
Silin: "..." Fine, I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
Silin didn't know what to say to a cat that slept for 20 out of 24 hours.
While Silin was perfecting the "water" bullets, he also taught Rong Ruo how to improve the original technology. In the new batch of manufactured accessories, both the purity and brightness had been greatly improved. What he felt when he touched it wasn't the unique coldness of hard crystals, but the softness of water.
The first to use these accessories were Gen Xingming's group. They bought a bunch of accessories from Rong Ruo and used them to pick up girls. Originally, they were only supporting Rong Ruo out of respect for Cillin, but they didn't expect these accessories to be so popular. The three of them even offered to help Rong Ruo set up an accessory company. Silin would follow them, and it would be beneficial for Rong Ruo to interact more with Gen Xingming and the others. At the very least, she'd have someone to rely on when Silin wasn't around.
Silin was ready to return to the League of Stars after dealing with the "water" bullets. Xi Kai had urged him several times, and he'd probably come looking for him if he didn't depart soon.
The laboratory was handed over to Rong Ruo. She could carry out her "crystal" dreams here. Gen Xingming and the others would come here to help as well. They were just bored out of their minds, and it just so happened that this was something new to them, so they came over to play.
Silin had deleted all the information related to the "water" bullets in the laboratory. He wasn't afraid that someone would come and steal it. Also, Silin didn't plan on publicizing the "water" bullets for now. It wasn't complete enough, and he needed to put it into practice. The best place to do that was the League of Stars.
Silin went to see Genya before going to find Xi Kai. However, Genya wasn't planning on going back with Silin. Although he really wanted to, he couldn't allow a large army to pass through right now. Genya would only burden the other side if he went alone, and Genya didn't want that.
"Then let's wait a bit longer. It won't be too long," Silin comforted.
Genya stared at the sea beast that was playing with Wheeze and smiled. "Don't worry about me. You've done well enough."
Cillin recorded a video of Genya, and what Genya wanted to say was also recorded in it. After leaving Genya's place, Silin, Czedow and Huimao headed to Xi Kai's base. Guan Feng had released Tang Qiuqiu as well. She was holding a K2 Guan Feng had made for her. Although it was also a K-series gun, it was Tang Qiuqiu's K2. It was Tang Qiuqiu's personal gun, and Tang Qiuqiu's initials were even engraved on the gun.
He had obtained all the materials he needed, and he wasn't at ease leaving the Eleventh Squad alone. Although the Eleventh Squad had stayed inside the base, there was no telling if something special would happen to them.
When they arrived at Xi Kai's electronic planet again, Xi Kai was already waiting for them on top of a space fortress.
"What have you been up to lately? What took you so long? "Xi Kai asked.
Before Silin could answer, Huimao asked from atop Silin's shoulder, "What, do you have a problem with that?"
Xi Kai curled his lips. "I wouldn't dare." He couldn't afford to offend this cat.
"Hey, Sigma, what's that you're holding?" Huimao asked.
Inside the space fortress, Sigma was protecting a small box like it was a treasure.
Xi Kai glanced at it, scratched his head, and left in embarrassment to sort out his robots.
"That's Rufia and Zoe," Sigma said happily.
"Rufia and Zoe?" Huimao jumped down from Silin's shoulder and sniffed the box. Nothing special.
Reifia and Zoel were the last two of Sigma's five siblings, the two poor robots that were destroyed by the Xi Family. But what was Sigma holding in his arms right now?
"Ashes?" Huimao asked.
Sometimes, this cat just needed to be taught a lesson. It had no filter.
"Nope. This is Rufia and Zoe, but they're asleep, "Sigma said.
Huimao was about to get to the bottom of the matter, but Silin smacked him with a fish biscuit.
The trip to the Mist Bodhisattva Sect wasn't long, but everyone had gained a lot from it. Xi Mu and Xi Kai had come up with a plan for a new type of robot. They didn't tell us the specifics, but they just said that we'll know when the time comes.
"We're leaving now, Chip. We'll see you in a little while!" Sigma and Moon said to Chip's hologram from inside the bastion.
"Good luck. I hope that the next time I see you, Rufia and Zoel will also be 'awake'," said Chip, who had basically controlled the entire electronic planet on the ground. He was glad to see Sigma again. Sigma was still the same Sigma, the same Sigma that wouldn't change even after a thousand years.
Could the five brothers really be reunited? Chip wasn't sure himself, but if Moon said there was a chance, then there must be a chance. When Rufia and Zoe returned, and when Xi Kai and Xi Mu's new plan succeeded, Chip would be able to leave his current state and explore the universe with them.
The Xi Family preferred to live among the stars. They didn't like to stay in one place for too long. Even Sigma wanted to explore and see more people and things.
Faith was the ray of light that kept you going in your darkest hour. It wasn't bright, but it was beautiful in the darkness.
It's all in the past...
Chip stared at the bastion as it rose into the air. The darkest hour is over, isn't it?
Once the bastion was gone, an image appeared on the ground in front of Chip. It was the image Moon had given him. It was a memory of his master.
"Moon, as long as you 'live', you can wake them up even if they're asleep. So, no matter how despicable they are, no matter what tricks they pull, you must 'live' …"
Moon didn't show the hologram to Sigma because he had his doubts. Would they really wake up? It was only after meeting Sigma that Sigma began to believe those words. No matter what the process was, the result was getting better.
Why was Moon the most complicated of them all? Because he carried the most burdens on his shoulders.
Cillin knew that Moon was carrying a lot of secrets. In fact, he suspected that Moon knew the reason behind the formation of the sea beast specimens in Sea Heaven's underwater city. However, no one could pry the information out of Moon's mouth if he didn't want to say it.
Although the Xi Clan's peak generation had passed away a thousand years ago, had the wisdom and achievements of that generation really been lost?
Inside the bastion, Silin watched Moon chat with Huimao, then drag Huimao and Sigma off to watch some X-rays. He closed his eyes.
The bastion flew into the depths of the planet, where no one was. Something like a huge storm circle formed in the universe. This time, however, Tang Qiuqiqiu was calm. She didn't go to sleep.
As the bastion entered the storm, the instruments in the cockpit showed that the data was much more stable than the last two times.
Huimao yawned and curled into a ball next to Silin. He was going to take a nap, and then he'd have to get back to work.
