Chapter 629 - 342: Sword Left for the Celestial Palace Inheritor of Sword Kingdom (Part 2)
Even jumping with the "crackling" of blue electric sparks!
...
The entire machine room became lively.
The flowing Hundred Flowers Juice, the wriggling Hundred Flowers Juice, and the flashes of jumping electric light!
The two operations engineers pushed their carts around, wandering everywhere and looking wide-eyed and on edge.
"Huh?"
"Ah?"
The master had previously said that when the Ghost Eye Machine Room runs at maximum speed, it indeed looks like this, nothing needed to be done by them.
But they were still scared!
This state of the machine room, will it really not break?
They wandered around and instinctively, simultaneously, pushed their carts to the center of the machine room and saw their master sitting at the desk, holding a tablet and scribbling rapidly.
Seeing their master grinning, seeing the bronze Great Tripod slowly rotating in their master’s eyes.
Swish...
Bai Mo penned the final stroke.
Seeing outside the machine room door, dusk had already fallen.
The lumps of Ghost Eyes in the machine room gradually dimmed their electric light and gradually ceased wriggling.
"Huh?"
"Ah?"
The two foxes hurriedly ran over to readjust the flow of the Hundred Flowers Juice pipeline.
Bai Mo set down the pen.
Beamed with a smile.
"Not as difficult as imagined.
"Done!"
...
"Cheers!"
Peach Blossom Building, an old establishment in the North Suburb.
In the private room, Cai Xiaozhen and a group of people smiled brightly, raising their glasses together.
"Celebrating the complete deployment of the West State City Defense Array!"
Bai Mo, Wu Qingyun, and Fang Xiaoyu all attended with smiles, raising their glasses together.
During these days, they joined the convoy, running around, feeling very involved!
The fox apprentice Pineapple Bun stood on the dining table, raising a toast with its fox claw, feeling very proud.
This City Defense Array also involved an investment from Fox Mountain... a technology investment, and belongs to the Fox Mountain subsidiary industries!
Although this industry seems unprofitable and worthless, even the leg of a mosquito is meat, worth celebrating!
Cai Xiaozhen took a sip of wine, feeling deeply moved.
"This... it’s not easy.
"In fact, we were always very afraid, afraid that before this array was completed, the enemy’s Sequence Six would begin its scheme.
"Now the array deployment is finished, my task can be considered accomplished, haha."
Xiaoli smacked his lips.
"Honestly, thanks to Expert Bai Mo."
Everyone echoed in agreement.
"Indeed, the role of Expert Bai Mo was too significant, haha."
"This City Defense Array is uncommon even in the Ancient Immortal Dynasty, the Immortals can’t manage it.
"Instead, it was solved by us modern technology and modern scientists. Hahaha."
Talking and laughing, everyone suddenly heard commotion outside.
Xiaoli stood up, opened the gap of the private room door to take a look.
"I saw a banner in the outer hall saying something about [Celebrating the successful handover and homeowner banquet of Happiness Peninsula]."
Happiness Peninsula?
Everyone in this private room looked at each other in confusion.
They had quite an impression of this community.
Previously at that community, the Feng Shui data changed too quickly and unpredictably, nearly causing the array stake to not be insertable.
They didn’t say much, just chuckled, continuing to drink and eat.
Bai Mo gave the apprentice Pineapple Bun a honey-glazed chicken drumstick, letting it gnaw on it, then pulled out his phone to check the official app of the Immortal Committee, and soon found the [{Proposal for the Happiness Peninsula Community Feng Shui Data Anomaly}] submitted by Cai Xiaozhen.
Entering the proposal, he found out that the Immortal Committee had already sent experts from various fields for an investigation.
Experts in Array, Immortal Beast, Gu Dao, and Divination Path had been there, and apart from quick Feng Shui changes, everything else was normal.
[Happiness Peninsula has been included in the Immortal Committee’s key regulatory list, ready for rapid evacuation of the populace at any time]
Bai Mo locked the phone screen, continued to eat and drink with Cai Xiaozhen and the others.
Suddenly, assistant Xiaoli said.
"I just saw Hu Shanjiu outside, the fallen streamer.
"He ordered a huge feast by himself, devouring it like a starving ghost."
Mentioning Hu Shanjiu stirred some resentment in Cai Xiaozhen’s group.
"Humph, this guy has been sticking like gum plaster these days, following us to stay at the hotel.
"Wherever we stay, he stays too.
"Today, he even came to eat at the restaurant with us!"
...
Outside the private room not far away.
Hu Shanjiu gnawed at a chicken drumstick, tossed half of it into the plate, and without wiping the oil from the corners of his mouth, scooped a spoonful of tomato beef brisket into his mouth.
As he swallowed it, he felt his stomach was too full, and the food seemed ready to come back up.
"Ugh..."
He forced down the mouthful of meat, licked the grease off the corners of his mouth, and held his round belly, grinning.
"Damn, I have no self-control, eating so much that I stuffed myself."
He looked at the mostly untouched dishes on the table and sighed.
"What a pity. Normally, I’d pack these up and take them home, enough to eat for another two days."
He called the waiter to pay the bill, took out his phone, and with an unprecedented flair, scanned a code to pay a hefty 742 yuan!
Looking at his WeChat balance, only 21 yuan remained.
"Just enough."
He picked up his backpack, stood up, and glanced once more at the table filled with gleaming dishes, the half-eaten large platter of chicken, the half plate of braised beef, and the one-third left spicy pork intestines... He sighed and walked out of the restaurant.
The evening outside was already deep and dark.
Cars sped by on the road, headlights on low beam.
In the distance, neon lights glowed in a riot of colors, nestled among the tall buildings.
Whew...
A cold wind blew, sneaking into his collar, making him shiver involuntarily.
"It’s quite chilly."
He pulled out his phone, ready to hail a ride to Happiness Peninsula.
"Hey, stuffed and satisfied, taking a ride to save the world, I’m so damn romantic!"
"Huh? Damn it!"
"Ride-hailing peak time, the fare has increased?"
In his mind, the Ancient Immortal faintly asked.
"So... do you still have enough money for the ride?"
Hu Shanjiu smirked.
"I... I’ll go for a carpool!
"A bit slower, but it won’t delay my world-saving, right?"
...
In the private room, Bai Mo was eating when his Spiritual Sense was suddenly triggered.
Guan Yuexi?
As he gnawed on the cured ribs, he listened to Guan Yuexi’s message.
"Boss, I’m on my way to West State!
"Something big might happen in West State tonight.
"My Ancient Immortal Master calculated that today is the day an Immortal Sword will be born.
"This sword is very special and very important.
"If it doesn’t appear today, the next time it emerges will be after a millennium!"
Bai Mo finished the meat on the ribs and then crunched away at the crispy bone.
What sword?
What Sequence-level Immortal Artifact?
This seems quite mystical?
"It is... the sword the Emperor left for the Celestial Palace Heir of the Sword Kingdom!
"In the past, before the calamity and pollution arrived, the sword of Hong Shuang Emperor of Sword Kingdom broke unexpectedly, so she asked the Thousand Machines Emperor of Artifact Kingdom to craft this sword.
"The sword consumed the efforts of both Sword Kingdom and Artifact Kingdom, countless materials, countless Immortals, and immense dedication.
"It was forged for seven hundred years, yet remained unfinished.
"But when the catastrophe suddenly struck, and pollution descended, the sword-making process was interrupted!
"The Thousand Machines Emperor entrusted the sword to the Sword Grinding Holy Land, to hide it unfinished, continue forging, and pass it down, awaiting today."
After conveying the important information, Guan Yuexi decisively went silent, not uttering another word.
Bai Mo was momentarily dazed.
The Immortal Sword prepared by the Nine Great Emperors for the Celestial Palace Heir of Sword Dao, entrusted to the Sword Grinding Holy Land, passed down for millennia?
This treasure in West State weighs quite heavily!
He subconsciously "cracked" and splintered the bone of the rib in his hand.
Everyone looked over, and he grinned, somewhat embarrassed.
"Oh, these ribs are just too delicious, couldn’t help but nibble a little more."
"Hahaha."
"Hahaha."
Bai Mo picked up a new cured rib, suddenly feeling something amiss...
"For an Immortal Sword of this level to emerge, what kind of commotion would it cause?
"When Marquis accidentally encountered the [Wind and Snow Profound Spear], there was a resonance between Heaven and Earth, and the snow mountains surged forth.
"This sword is surely not inferior to the [Wind and Snow Profound Spear], right?"
...
Whoosh...
The taxi stopped at the entrance of Happiness Peninsula.
A few drunken residents, arm in arm, arrived at the entrance of the community.
A chubby, sturdy man, after several shaky attempts, finally pulled out an access card, swiped open the iron gate, and was helped inside.
"Hey, our community is safe, hahaha."
Hu Shanjiu, supporting the resident guy, also laughed and joined in the conversation.
"Yeah, that’s why I bought in this community, just for the houses in the Immortal District."
At the intersection, parting ways with the drunk group, Hu Shanjiu quickly slipped away, chuckling at his cleverness.
"Luckily I’m smart, hitching a ride with other residents, saving the fare, and sneaking past the access control."
