Slap!
A loud slap echoed in the room. Shi Sanjie rubbed her swollen palm and said calmly, "Are you awake now?"
Lü Junyi rubbed his slightly red face and stared at Shi Fanglin, "How did you, this sissy, end up here?"
"I was just being intimate with Princess Vanessa..."
"Damn it! Why are so many people watching! Comrade Xu Nan, you explain this."
Xu Nan couldn't help but roll his eyes.
The current Lü Junyi was no different from a Giant Panda. Despite sleeping for so long, he looked completely drained from excessive indulgence. God knows what kind of wet dream he had to get himself into this state.
"Princess of the Arcane Empire, and a Cloud Ascending Ship."
"Do you know that even in the Pro World, the Arcane Empire has been exiled for thousands of years?"
"If you could meet a princess of the Arcane Empire, she'd probably be a thousand-year-old grandma."
Xu Nan sneered, "Since you're awake, there are some things we need to clarify."
"What's this about a veterinary practice license?"
"You ladies should step out for a moment. The following scene might be very bloody and violent, not suitable for children."
Qin Lele stuck out her tongue and pulled Gu Xiaomeng out without hesitation.
The two ran outside and stared at each other.
"Give me back my underwear!" Gu Xiaomeng protested weakly.
"What kind of god is the God of Love and Maidens?" Qin Lele stared at her. "If you're in love, can you still be a maiden?"
Gu Xiaomeng's eyes widened. "Why not? Do love and maidenhood conflict?"
Qin Lele looked shy. "Of course they conflict! Like now, I'm in love with Xu Nan, so I'm not a maiden anymore... I'm already a woman."
Gu Xiaomeng looked disbelieving.
A Giant Panda carrying bamboo walked by leisurely. "Don't listen to her, she's still a little girl."
Qin Lele said exasperatedly, "What are you doing out here!"
A Tang puffed out his chest and said strangely,
"I'm a lady too!"
"So the situation now is that Gu Xiaomeng is clinging to you instead? God of Love and Maidens? Sounds pretty useless."
Inside the room, after the three close friends were left, they could finally discuss some matters seriously.
Lü Junyi took a sip of water, feeling completely baffled. "The question is, what did that god see in you? To want you as her Chosen One?"
Xu Nan touched his face. "Maybe everything."
Shi Fanglin sneered, "Xu Nan, you've changed. You used to be much more shameless."
The next second, he looked at Lü Junyi. "I heard that if you help with a surgery, you can become a Professional?"
Lü Junyi thought for a moment. "It seems that's the case."
Shi Fanglin: "Then I want to be a Magician."
Lü Junyi said angrily, "This isn't something I can control."
"Then do you have the strength to perform surgery now?" Shi Fanglin looked at him eagerly.
Lü Junyi barely lifted his hand. "Maybe in a couple of days. I don't know why, but I feel very weak."
"Let's not do any major surgeries if we don't have to. I'll just cut out your appendix later."
Xu Nan sneered, "Sanjie, are you sure you want this veterinarian to cut out your appendix?"
Lü Junyi retorted, "What's wrong with being a veterinarian? I have rich surgical experience. When it comes to cutting out appendices, I'm really not bad! When I was interning abroad, I cut out the appendices of horses and mules on a ranch!"
The corners of Xu Nan and Shi Fanglin's mouths twitched slightly. If it weren't for Lü Junyi looking like he was recovering from a serious illness, their fists would have probably gone down already!
After thinking for a long time, Shi Fanglin finally decided, "Then let's do a surgery."
Lü Junyi smiled smugly.
Shi Fanglin said,
"Does cutting fingernails count as surgery?"
He extended his ten slender, jade-like fingers, his long nails beautiful as a painting, and looked at Lü Junyi sincerely.
After some banter.
The three of them gathered together and shared the information they knew. Sanjie was called over by Xu Nan to help design the Dungeon. She wasn't a Professional yet, so she listened more and spoke less.
Xu Nan knew the most, but could say very little.
So, the talkative Lü Junyi was left.
From his words, Xu Nan was somewhat surprised to learn that Comrade Lü's profession was indeed related to the Arcane Empire.
[Industrial Magician].
A very unfamiliar term in the Pro World, a profession that only existed during the peak of the Arcane Empire, in the era when the classification of Magician schools was most detailed.
Compared to other Magicians, Industrial Magicians specialized in the production and maintenance of industrial-grade products, far surpassing Alchemists in skill.
The spells they mastered were also specifically used for this purpose.
For example, the Cloud Ascending Ship's star destroyer cannon. Half of its energy consumption came from the Cloud Ascending Ship itself, and the other half was provided by skilled high-level Industrial Magicians for spell support.
However, the cultivation of Industrial Magicians required extremely high resource investment. Currently, Lü Junyi had mastered very few spells, and their consumption was enormous. After casting one spell, he was practically unable to cast any more.
"In short, he's a brick mover," Shi Sanjie gave a highly accurate and concise evaluation of Lü Junyi's profession.
"If we had a Cloud Ascending Ship, you could still put your remaining energy to use. For now, just think about what profession I can inherit!" Shi Fanglin was aloof and expressionless in front of others, but only in front of Lü Junyi did his expressions become very rich.
Xu Nan once suspected that his two friends had a strange relationship, but later he discovered...
They might really be that kind of relationship!
"Cloud Ascending Ship... Cloud Ascending Ship..." Upon hearing this word, Lü Junyi seemed possessed, clutching his hair and saying painfully, "Something very important has been forgotten by me."
Shi Fanglin frowned and held his hand, "Calm down first..."
Lü Junyi suddenly jumped up and shouted, "Right, I remember in my dream, Princess Vanessa told me that she would give me a Cloud Ascending Ship as a betrothal gift!"
Xu Nan's scalp tingled from Lü Junyi's display, and he couldn't help but rub his temples frantically:
"You know that was in a dream!"
Suddenly, the ground trembled.
Outside, Qin Lele's loud shouts could be heard, along with the terrified wails of the Imps!
"What's wrong?"
Xu Nan was the first to rush out.
He saw that at the Imps' self-built housing camp, a strange and huge piece of metal was rising from the ground. It seemed that something was slowly breaking through the soil!
Its speed was not fast, but the most miraculous thing was that although the ground trembled, such a huge object moving underground did not cause significant damage.
The initial disturbance among the Imps was only because this piece of metal suddenly appeared!
Xu Nan ordered the Imps to evacuate.
The group stared as the metal continued to grow from an unknown place. Finally, a somewhat familiar emblem appeared on the metal.
[Setting Sun's Glow].
This was the mark of the Arcane Empire!
As the piece of metal continued to break through the ground, everyone couldn't help but open their mouths wide in unison.
A section of a strangely shaped hull appeared in Xu Nan's Dungeon just like that!
It seemed that a large part of it was still buried underground!
"Wow, there really is a Cloud Ascending Ship!"
Qin Lele clapped her hands and cheered.
Lü Junyi, who had just been helped out of the house by Shi Fanglin, heard this and pulled up his pants and ran. Unfortunately, he stumbled and fell to the ground after only a few steps due to weakness.
At this moment, with a bang, a door opened on the side of the hull.
A desolate and ancient aura rushed out.
"Beep beep beep!"
"Destination reached detected, automatic navigation off."
"System detection... detection failed..."
"[Blazing Fire] has been out of contact with the Empire for 4982 years..."
A dry mechanical voice came from the Cloud Ascending Ship. Although the door was open, Xu Nan did not see anyone appear.
He boldly approached.
"Ally bloodline detected, obtain temporary authority for Cloud Ascending Ship [Blazing Fire]?"
A faint red light gathered on Xu Nan's body. Xu Nan's heart stirred, "Ally bloodline? Is my bloodline an ally of the Arcane Empire?"
The mechanical voice replied, "Since its creation, the Arcane Empire has signed an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with Lost Paradise."
Xu Nan's face lit up with joy.
Who knew that in the next second, the mechanical voice said flatly, "However, over the past few thousand years, Lost Paradise has continuously plagiarized the works of the Arcane Empire, and the Empire's high command is very dissatisfied with this; in the final battle, Lost Paradise, which should have sent troops, chose to stand by, leading to the Arcane Empire being permanently exiled by the Gods..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Xu Nan wasn't here to listen to it recount the dark history of the Ron Sorcerers!
Although he also felt that these dark histories were quite in line with the style of the Ron Sorcerers.
"What is your current situation? Why are you here?"
Xu Nan asked.
"Unknown. Blazing Fire has reached its destination. Relevant personnel, please take over the Cloud Ascending Ship," the mechanical voice replied.
"So there's no one on board," Lü Junyi was overjoyed. "I, Princess Vanessa promised me a Cloud Ascending Ship. It must be this one!"
"I'll take over the Cloud Ascending Ship!"
He rushed over, only to be blasted back by a jolt of electricity!
"Does not meet the takeover conditions!" the mechanical voice was icy cold.
Xu Nan tried it himself and found he was allowed through.
He obtained temporary control of the Cloud Ascending Ship.
The people of the Arcane Empire are still righteous. Even though the people of Lost Paradise are so treacherous, the Cloud Ascending Ship they designed actually allows allies to board?
Xu Nan sighed inwardly.
Qin Lele ran over. "Xu Nan, Xu Nan, I want to see the legendary Star Destroyer Cannon! I heard that at the peak of the Arcane Empire, they used the Star Destroyer Cannon to blast away the World God Kingdoms of several Gods!"
The mechanical voice automatically replied, "Star Destroyer Cannon has been destroyed, weapon system completely paralyzed; power system paralyzed; navigation system paralyzed; flight system paralyzed..."
Xu Nan shouted, "Stop!"
"Is there anything on this ship that still works?"
The mechanical voice was silent for a long time before replying:
"...Central air conditioning system."
...!
