Chapter 3661: Miss Nan's Finishing Touches, ing

The printer was rapidly printing a young body… The materials were basically the best that could be found in [Azure].

Ah Nan stood outside the cover, examining the soon-to-be-formed body with great interest. "So, this is what Father-in-law looked like when he was young… Not bad, quite handsome?"

[September] didn't speak, only carefully inserting a chip into the center of the forehead of the almost completed body.

The chip contained Lu Da's entire life data.

Ah Nan had already inspected Grandmaster Lu's remains and couldn't help but marvel: He was indeed a ruthless person.

In order to avoid reincarnation, in order to allow his uploaded consciousness to have independence after becoming data, Grandmaster Lu even proactively disintegrated his own soul!

"Originally, I planned to let Lu Da become my kind after returning to the [Science Faction]," [September] shook his head slightly, "But the changes came too fast."

Ah Nan didn't say anything. Grandmaster Lu had his own choice… probably believing that only by disintegrating all his [Azure] imprints could he truly and wholeheartedly accompany [September] with a new identity.

"Although it's with your power," [September] said in a deep voice, "I don't want Lu Da to be restricted by you in the future."

Ah Nan waved her hand, "Don't worry, I will proactively sever the connection between the [Star Creation] construct and me… After all, I've known Father-in-law for a while, and I wouldn't reduce him to utter waste."

[September] took a deep look at her, saying nothing.

The printer had entered its final stage. The body inside was a mix of red and silver. Ah Nan directly activated [Star Creation], pointing it at the chip in the center of its brow.

Purple light converged. [September]'s eyes flickered non-stop. This method of creating a [Star Creation Soul] out of thin air was still miraculous, no matter how many times he had researched it.

Perhaps this witch's [Star Creation] technique was somewhat similar to the legendary [Spiral Tribe] that had disappeared from the [Science Faction] for a long time?

The light gradually dissipated, and streams of light began to appear on the body in the printing bed. When it slowly opened its eyes, [September]'s emotions visibly changed.

Ah Nan squinted and glanced at it, then sized up the new [Star Creation] construct. "Congratulations, Father-in-law, you're [alive] again… in a way."

"This feeling… is wonderful," it couldn't help but sigh, looking at [September] with intelligent and complex eyes, "Actually, you didn't have to do this. Even if you just installed a mechanical body for me, it would have been enough as long as I could be by your side."

"Father-in-law, the body I created can even bear children, in a way, you know?" Miss Nan suddenly said.

"…[September], I feel that our relationship should be elevated."

…

In fact, only the newly reborn [Lu Da] could. [September]'s main body was still that strange [Twenty-Faced] machine—it was impossible to insert the connection port; at most, they could only synchronize their thoughts.

But obviously, [September] didn't plan to complete the evolution of a mechanical life through [Star Creation]—Ah Nan didn't care what kind of PLAY this human-machine love was going to play, anyway, the additional conditions had been met.

"Father-in-law, you're like this now, why don't you give yourself a new name to celebrate?" Ah Nan directly suggested.

She had indeed proactively severed the connection between herself as the [Star Creation] creator and the creation. From now on, [Lu Da] was [Lu Da].

"I am as if I came from illusion," [Lu Da] thought for a while and said, "From now on, call me [Huan Da]!"

Miss Nan blurted out, "[September], there's still a bit of material left, why don't you print one too?"

"No need," [September] directly refused.

[Fire Cloud]… [Thunderclap Mountain].

On the mountain road of an unnamed small peak in the back mountain, a figure wearing a white lab coat was slowly climbing the mountain, carrying a basket.

When he reached the halfway point, the person in the white lab coat stopped. Next to a stone tablet beside the mountainside, Miss Nan was leaning against it.

"Yo, changed a new body again?" Ah Nan casually greeted, "Should I call you [Li Jianyi] or [Ukoku]?"

"Either is fine," the other party smiled indifferently, adjusting the glasses on his face, "Anyway, they're all the same."

Ah Nan smiled indifferently, "Going up the mountain before dawn? What are you doing here? You wouldn't be here to worship, would you?"

[Ukoku] said casually, "Miss Nan, don't you already know everything?"

"I haven't been there," Ah Nan squinted, "Aren't I waiting for you, the protagonist?"

[Ukoku] chuckled and shook his head, carrying the basket and continuing to climb, walking directly past Ah Nan… Miss Nan didn't care, resting her hands behind her head and leisurely following behind him.

The higher up the road, the more difficult it became to walk. Even the steps had disappeared, and weeds grew everywhere… The main peak of [Thunderclap Mountain] was extremely high, but there were many secondary peaks, surrounded by mountains.

[Ukoku] finally stopped under a peach tree near the top of the mountain.

Two nameless tombstones stood here… The direction of the tombstones was exactly the main body of [Fire Cloud City]—even on the same horizontal line as the former [Pingtian] Building.

[Ukoku] squatted down, silently wiping the mud and dust off the tombstones, "The one on the left is [Princess Rakshasa]'s. The one on the right is the cenotaph of their child… You should know, [Fire Cloud City] was the royal city of [Peach Blossom Spring] a long, long time ago."

"Even willing to tell you about this kind of place, it seems King Qing really trusts you," Ah Nan casually sat on a stone next to her, "Why are you helping King Qing? Is it just because he gave you a place to stay when you crossed over to [Azure]?"

[Ukoku] couldn't help but be surprised, "Miss Nan, do I really not look like the kind of person who repays kindness?"

"I feel like I'm more like it than you are?"

"That's really heartbreaking," [Ukoku] shook his head, reaching out to gently stroke the child's cenotaph, "Just consider it me wanting to see if there's another ending."

Ah Nan frowned subconsciously, as if realizing something, and pondered, "You… when you were in the [Canaan] small world?"

[Ukoku] didn't speak, only silently erecting a new grave between the two tombstones.

A new grave mourns the old.

[Ukoku] clapped the dirt off his hands and sighed, "So… Ox-Demon King, it seems that you still didn't escape the fate of wife and children being separated in this world. Have you ever regretted… resisting?"

"They're together," Ah Nan blurted out.

[Ukoku] was silent, and after a long time, he turned around indifferently, putting his hands in his pockets and saying, "What are you looking for me for? Logically speaking, I shouldn't be able to threaten you at all."

Ah Nan looked at the other party affectionately, saying quietly, "If I had one more ticket to the [Science Faction], would you come with me?"

"…Say it in human language?"

“I need you.” A'Nan said directly, “Next, we're heading to the [Science Side], and I can't do without a tool like you. After all, you're the [traitor] they chose, aren't you?”

“Don't you already have [Doctor]?” [Ukoku] asked curiously, “Logically speaking, [Doctor] and I are no different. It knows everything I know.”

“No.” A'Nan shook her head, “They have specialized methods for detecting [Star Creation] creations. That guy will be exposed as soon as he appears.”

“Aren't you afraid I'll betray you?” [Ukoku] said with a smile, “After all, I'm a two-faced, annoying type.”

“They…” Miss Nan said calmly, “Can't give you what you truly want.”

[Ukoku] was silent.

Miss Nan said: “[Ukoku], the stage of [Azure] is too small for you. Even your former world of [Canaan] is the same… The void is your real stage.”

“Nice cake.” [Ukoku] smiled.

Miss Nan chuckled: “With the smell of engine oil.”

[Ukoku] left calmly, his figure gradually disappearing into the fading darkness, “I'll consider it.”

“I'll wait for you!” A'Nan immediately raised a handkerchief and waved goodbye.

After that, she didn't rush to leave, because very soon, two more figures were drawn to the tomb on this nameless small peak.

The people who came were Gao Changgong and Dugu Xingye.

…

Looking at the two old graves, and the newly erected grave of [Ukoku], a trace of ripples suddenly appeared in Dugu Xingye's calm eyes.

A'Nan then took out a copy of the game cartridge, held it between her fingers, and looked at Gao Changgong and said, “Mr. Gao, I didn't let you down, did I… But I can only give you a backup. The original is in the boss's hands.”

Gao Changgong said indifferently: “Since the master likes it, that's naturally good. You didn't do anything wrong.”

A'Nan was obedient!

Not a single mistake, not a single first, not a single internal, not a single content, not a single look!

— I bet you, you old geezer, wouldn't dare ask the boss for it either, heh heh heh…

Gao Changgong waved his hand, and the copied game cartridge detached from A'Nan's hand, and then fell into Dugu Xingye's hands.

Old Gao said indifferently at this time: “Dugu Xingye, after this sacrifice, you will no longer have any relationship with everything here. From now on, although you are my subordinate, you must also keep in mind that your life does not belong to me, but to [Shop].”

Dugu Xingye said expressionlessly: “It doesn't matter who my life belongs to, I will only listen to your orders, that's all.”

Gao Changgong smiled indifferently. Dugu Xingye is a great talent, and a little arrogance is completely acceptable… Just knock him into shape more in the future.

He thought for a while, then turned to A'Nan, “Miss Nan, congratulations on officially becoming the person in charge of the [Azure] hunting ground. [Azure] used to be Lord [Fuxi]'s hunting ground. He still had some arrangements that he didn't have time to implement. If you have the opportunity, you can explore it, and maybe there will be new gains.”

Meow meow meow?

A'Nan blinked her eyes immediately… [Fuxi]? !

“Mr. Gao, can you explain in detail?”

Gao Changgong shook his head, “I'm sorry, the [Soul Hall] was broken once, and there are too many blank spaces in the memories of us Soul Envoys. Anyway, [Azure] is already your hunting ground, and you have the authority of the holy land… [Shop] here. You can explore it slowly.”

“Okay.” A'Nan knew that she couldn't squeeze any oil out of it, so she had to settle for second best: “Mr. Gao, I'm lucky this time and completed the boss's assessment, but after all, looking at the history of [Shop], I'm just a newcomer… There are really still many shortcomings. I wonder if Mr. Gao is willing to stay and teach me more experience and assist me in managing together? I am willing to share this [hunting ground] with Mr. Gao!”

Gao Changgong said indifferently: “No need, it's best for Soul Envoys not to be too close… We old ones also have our own territories. This place is already your [hunting ground], so it is your territory. The rules cannot be broken.”

A'Nan showed regret on the spot.

“What's more…” Gao Changgong pondered slightly, “I have disappeared for a long time. This time I'm resurrected, maybe I can visit some old friends. I don't know if they still exist today.”

“I see.” A'Nan nodded, “When does sir plan to set off?”

“I will leave after I have seen the master.” Gao Changgong said without thinking: “Miss Nan, whether it is the business of the [branch] or your own cultivation, you need to work harder. You are so excellent, and one day you may be able to give birth to the master…”

“Mr. Gao!! It's getting late, I still have things to do!!”

Scum Nan quickly stopped him!

— TM, is this something that I, who has to guess even the boss's length, can listen to?!!!!

…

[Fire Cloud City]… [Emerald Bamboo Residence].

This residence of the mayor has not been affected by the war due to its geographical location… Many people also poured into the vicinity of the mountainside where [Emerald Bamboo Residence] is located to hide when the disaster came.

“Try to find a way to prepare some more food and supplies. Let's get through tonight first.”

“Okay, Aunt Wang, we'll go right away!”

As the chief housekeeper of [Emerald Bamboo Residence], Aunt Wang is busy before and after, but her face is getting more and more worried… Those extraterritorial invaders have been shot down, the war has stopped, but communication has not been restored, and the people sent to inquire about the news have not returned yet.

…

At this time, on the main road leading to [Emerald Bamboo Residence]… a black heavy motorcycle is slowly climbing the mountain.

Miss Xiangxiang is sitting in the back seat of [Reverse Five Elements], hugging A'Nan's waist tightly.

“Have you memorized all the information?” A'Nan began to slow down, and [Reverse Five Elements] finally stopped by the road, “Next, I won't go over.”

“Please rest assured, Master, I will do well.”

“What a good child.” Miss Nan smiled slightly, reaching out and rubbing Miss Xiangxiang's head.

— From now on, she is the daughter of the mayor of [Fire Cloud City], Iron Rakshasa, the only heir of [Pingtian] Group, Miss Honghai.

She will take over the resources of Iron Rakshasa and inherit the huge legacy of [Pingtian] Group — theoretically, Miss Xiangxiang can even directly surpass Zhao Wumian and become the richest and most beautiful woman of the [Human Race].

Niu Dagang's legacy should not be wasted… and it can't be handed over to the public, right?

Having an heir is a good thing.

Scum Nan transforms into three [beep——] in one breath, and can leave one in [Azure] to preside over the overall situation — since she is going to preside over the business here, she also has to start cultivating her own team.

After Xiangxiang takes over the [Pingtian] Group, she will be a very good and capable secretary.

Boom!

The roaring sound of the [Reverse Five Elements]' exclusive engine instantly resounded throughout the mountain, and then [Reverse Five Elements] ejected into the air, turning into a streamer and running towards the [Emerald Bamboo Residence] on the mountain in front.

“The eldest lady is back!”

“It's really the eldest lady!”

“Great!!”

So A'Nan took out her little notebook and crossed out another line, “Rounding it up, wouldn't it be approximately equal to completion?”

…

…

…

…

“Namo Namo Namo Namo…”

The wooden fish sound vibrated.

[Buu] began to show signs of tossing and turning and having difficulty falling asleep… Only to see that its brows were now tightly furrowed, and its face was covered with virtual sweat… It seemed to be having a nightmare.

Three kilometers away, Wen Duo marveled, “This master seems to have some real skills!”

A sliver of white appeared on the horizon.
