Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road

In the Lord's Mansion's secret chamber, the "array" used to summon Eerie Spirits directionally still remained around the perimeter.

At the center of the chamber, new equipment had been set up. The enormous Flying Tiger had been secured to a broad, sturdy "operating table" with steel bars.

Chu Fei glanced over the equipment in the middle of the chamber, then began circling the edges, mainly studying the "array" on the floor.

Seeing the real thing and seeing blueprints were ultimately two different concepts.

Chu Fei had studied the Essence Absorption Method and fluid dynamics, but this was his first time seeing an actual array.

Yet after making a full circuit, Chu Fei could not help frowning. The array was exquisitely designed, but the problem was that he could make no sense of it at all. Some of its structures resembled the framework of the Essence Absorption Method, but only resembled it.

As the saying went, a tiny difference could lead to a vast disparity. The more cutting-edge the technology, the truer that became. Perhaps merely a difference in precision could produce completely different outcomes—like the difference between military and civilian products, or finished goods and scrap.

Even with Chu Fei's current foundation of knowledge, he could not extract any useful data from it. That indicated only one thing: this was not common Big Data Technology!

Unfortunately, Zhao Kailong knew nothing more either. He had merely purchased the technology and copied it by rote. Inscribing the array itself was simple enough—he only needed to feed the program into an automated robot.

All a user needed to do was spend money, find a place to set up the array, activate the robot, activate the array, and wait quietly for the Eerie Spirits to arrive. Done.

But Chu Fei was thinking much further
