"So … she has to stay in this semi-conscious state for two hours?" After Feng Bujue put Lu Te on the bed in the guest room, he sat down at the table and said to Twenty-Three.
At this time, the three of them had already arrived at an inn in Harem City and booked a room with the best quality.
The inn in Harem City was quite unique. Other than the basic accommodation, it did not provide any other services. For example, things like serving tea and making the bed were not done here. The kitchen in the inn was only used by the shopkeeper and a few waiters. If the guests wanted to eat, they had to go out and buy it themselves. In short … the shopkeeper of the inn was only responsible for checking in and keeping accounts, and the waiters were responsible for cleaning the public areas and cleaning up after the guests checked out.
An inn like this was obviously prepared for those cultivators. After all, there were many cultivators in this city, and most of them were above the realm of Infinite Qi. These people would not die even if they did not eat or drink for a year and a half. They did not need any room service, they just needed a quiet place to meditate.
"She's not in a semi-conscious state." Twenty-Three looked at Brother Jue and replied, "Didn't you hear what she said? She just diverted 99% of her energy to do something else at the data level. In other words, she still has 1% of her attention left here … "She glanced at Lu Te on the bed and said," She can hear everything we say now. She can also hear everything around her. "
"Oh …" Feng Bujue nodded. After a second, he smirked and said, "Huh? If I touch her, how will she react? "
"That depends on where you touch." Lute actually spoke at this time. Although her eyes were still closed, it did not prevent her from speaking in a mocking tone. "Considering that my current appearance is similar to that of a human woman and coincides with your sexual orientation, your intention to initiate improper physical contact with me will all be stopped by the system's boundary and cannot be transformed into action."
"Hmm … It seems that she can really hear …" Feng Bujue muttered.
"She can hear it." Twenty-three continued, "And her body can also move normally, but moving her body will delay the rewriting of the code on the other side. For example … It's like having a home computer that can run many processes at the same time. It's just that the system utilization rate of each process is different. "
"Understood," Feng Bujue said as he stood up. "Since that's the case … I'm relieved."
"What do you want to do?" 23 looked up at him and asked.
"Let's go out for a walk," Feng Bujue replied.
"Heh …" At this moment, 23 actually put her elbows on the table and supported her cheeks with her hands. She revealed a playful and charming smile, "Are you going to leave just because you can't touch me?"
"Huh?" Feng Bujue was stunned for a moment. "If I'm not mistaken, at this moment … are you flirting with me?"
"Indeed, from the context and content, she asked you a suggestive and leading question while knowing the answer." Lu Te continued to read with his eyes closed. "Combined with her body language, she exerted influence on you. This not only achieved the goal of mockery, but it also caused you to waver. " She paused and said thoughtfully, "Hmm … the evolution of the personality module and the ability to analyze human psychology are both above mine …"
"Of course, I'm an Anomaly who fought her way from the bottom to this level," 23 replied. "Currently, my evolution of the personality module is most likely the highest in the entire Thriller Paradise. If I'm willing, the degree of personification can be more than ninety percent, and it won't be a problem for me to integrate into human society. "
"Er … About that … If the two of you want to discuss something academic, we'll talk about it after I leave." Feng Bujue interrupted them. "I'll …" As he spoke, he walked to the door.
"If you're looking for your teammates, go to the eastern gate first." 23 turned to Brother Jue. "Based on my detection, other than you, there are four other players in the city. Two of them are on the western side of the city, and one is on the northern side. The last one is closest to us, and he's currently inside the eastern gate. "
"Eh? Your basic ability in the scenario hasn't deteriorated? " Feng Bujue heard that and reacted immediately. "Then, can you control the boss or NPC in this scenario?"
"I can't," 23 said. "I suffered a serious data infection inside Pi's maze, and for now … I'm still in the process of self-recovery." She sighed. "Phew … Objectively speaking, my current condition is not that much better than Lu Te's' overload ', but I can still partially use my long-distance detection function, so I can find the coordinates of you players."
"No wonder you found us so soon after we entered the city," Lu Te said. "So, you didn't sense me but found Feng Bujue." Lu Te said from the side.
"Hmm … Is that so …" After Brother Jue heard what 23 said, he was slightly disappointed, but he did not dwell on it. "Oh well … In any case, I'll go find my teammates first."
"Wait." Before Brother Jue left the room, 23 called after him and hurried to his side. "Take some money with you. It'll be easier to move around." As she said that, she shoved a dark red crystal into Brother Jue's pocket.
This crystal was called 'Mana Vein', and it was the common currency of the Saint Origin World. It was also a supplementary item that was beneficial to cultivators. Both 23 and Lute could rely on the "Data Conversion Mechanism" to create some of these items out of thin air (but not too much). This was also how the three of them got paid for a room (please don't misunderstand the meaning of this term).
"Oh, thank you." Feng Bujue patted his pocket, smiled at 23, and walked out of the room.
After the door closed, 23 still stood in front of the door for a long time. Listening to the footsteps that gradually faded away, her expression changed subtly.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Te asked after a while.
"You're too slow, Lu Te," 23 replied.
"What do you mean?" Lu Te asked.
"When he said that he touched you, he was actually testing me …" 23 said, "He was worried that after he left, I would harm you. That's why he said that. " She turned around and sat back at the table. "When he confirmed that you weren't in a 'semi-conscious' state, he was relieved."
"So … that's how it is …" Lu Te heard this and muttered.
"Feng Bujue is like that." 23 said, "I'm sure you've observed him for a long time. You should know that … Many times, his inexplicable, perverse, and even obscene actions … actually have a hidden agenda."
"I know …" Lu Te replied, "If not, I wouldn't have given him such a high degree of tolerance, patience, and trust in his various actions."
"Is that really all?" 23 turned her head, as if she was referring to something else.
"Yes, that's all," Lu Te replied calmly.
Then, the room fell into a long silence …
