The little fox still dismissed Chen Luo's words with disdain.
She had heard him say that no fewer than ten times.
Chen Luo had been saying that since ten minutes ago. Now ten minutes had passed, yet the ten seconds in his mouth still hadn't changed.
"Strange. Why is it stuck on the last ten seconds?" Chen Luo said, somewhat puzzled.
Chen Luo had even prepared himself for it to get stuck on the final second, just like those damned loading bars always got stuck at 99%. But why the last ten seconds?
Technical adjustment, technical adjustment.
"..."
How about extending Sylvia's sleep first, Master? Her talent only has one minute left before it successfully advances. But there's no telling when Ismar will come down. Why not let Sylvia sleep a little longer?
"Fine..."
Chen Luo snapped his fingers and directly used the Herrscher of Knowledge's power to add an hour to Sylvia's clock.
It moved! It moved!
The Humanization Plugin said excitedly.
"Little fox, get back here! Time has moved forward by one second. Be careful not to get crushed!" Seeing that time had begun moving, Chen Luo called out to the little fox again.
"Heh."
It took ten minutes for the countdown to decrease by one second. Wouldn't those ten seconds take a hundred minutes?
Give me another hour, and I'll tear these rags to shreds!
...987654321!
Chen Luo watched helplessly as the first of the final ten seconds took ten minutes to pass, while the remaining nine seconds were gone in a single second.
Almost the instant Chen Luo finished warning the little fox, the countdown hit zero.
The spacetime passage opened a golden-amber slit. Within it, Ismar's curled-up figure, surrounded by wisps of golden light, gradually solidified... then fell down.
Smack!
"Guh!" A somewhat shrill cry
