In the bedroom, Jessica was reading a copy of "The Legend of the White Snake".
The text in the book is simple and easy to understand, and it also includes bilingual annotations.
This is the first level of the "Graded Readers for Learning Chinese" she bought; there are also books like "Chang'e Flying to the Moon" and "Hua Mulan" placed by her bedside.
While enjoying the story, students can gradually improve their Xia Language reading skills and gain a deeper understanding of Xia Country culture.
However, Jessica was clearly distracted at the moment, listening intently to something.
Why isn't anything happening?
Fifteen minutes later, Jessica threw down the book and walked barefoot outside.
As soon as they came out, they heard a muffled cry of pain that was being suppressed.
With a mischievous grin, she walked to the door, pushed it open, and went inside, immediately seeing Teresa's beautiful back.
Teresa froze, turning around with a puzzled look. "Jessica? Is something wrong?"
As she spoke, she struggled to get up.
"No, you don't need to get up, I'm fine."
Jessica quickly stepped forward, pressed her shoulders and pulled her back, stealing a glance and smiling:
"To be honest, I was initially a little suspicious that you were exaggerating and trying to fool me. But now, I'm convinced you're an honest Canary."
Teresa took the sheet and covered herself up slightly, saying calmly:
"It is very impolite for a lady to disturb another lady."
"Okay, okay, I'll be right there!"
Having found out what she wanted to know, Jessica walked out with her hands behind her back, but halfway there she turned back and asked:
"Are you really okay? Don't push yourself if you can't handle it, it looks scary..."
Teresa swept her hair over her shoulder and said calmly:
"Jessica, I'm going to your room later to teach you some ladylike etiquette. Lu Li, if she cries for help, just ignore her. I promise girls won't get hurt."
"Can."
"Hehe~ I'll lock the door~"
Jessica ran off barefoot in a flash.
~~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning, Lu Li woke up alone in bed.
Recalling last night, he couldn't help but sigh, "What a strange foreign woman..."
Elegant, composed, she maintained her composure even when she fainted.
"If you're tired, just say so. Why force yourself to stay strong?"
Lu Li shook his head, stood up, and noticed a hairband next to his pillow.
"I left something behind... Looks like things aren't as relaxed as they seem."
Holding the hairband, Lu Li went downstairs, where the two girls had already prepared a delicate breakfast.
"Your things."
"Thanks."
Lu Li handed it over, Teresa politely thanked him before taking it and putting it on without any special expression.
After finishing her breakfast in silence, Teresa took the initiative to clear away the dishes.
Jessica Lu Li into the living room and asked curiously, "Hey~ what's going on between you two? You two look really awkward together."
Lu Li shook his head and said, "I don't know... She's always been like this, maybe we're not familiar enough with her yet."
"Isn't this familiar enough?" Jessica, quite surprised.
At this moment, Teresa had finished packing her things and came over to ask, "Jessica, do you want to go to school together?"
"Okay, okay~" Jessica kissed Lu Li for a while before standing up and walking out.
Teresa also put on her ever-present white stockings at the door, and the two girls, hand in hand, got into the bulletproof car and went to school.
As Lu Li savored the sweet taste in his mouth, he suddenly remembered something: Teresa never seemed to let him kiss her...
~~~~~~~~~~
After the two girls left, Lu Li waited for the delivery and went to the garden to practice the White Dragon Whip Technique.
He made one round after another, and soon he was sweating profusely.
Although he possessed Xiao Cha's Internal Breath, he didn't need to exert much effort.
But Lu Li thought that he should save the girl as much as possible, so he tried his best to accumulate more cultivation.
By noon, he was exhausted and couldn't help but think:
[If only some of the speed of refining the Spirit Refinement could be allocated to Martial Arts...]
If Xiao Cha knew what he was thinking, she'd definitely tear him apart.
Martial Arts will yield results as long as you practice, but Spirit Refinement doesn't even give you a chance to try.
After taking a break, I continued practicing until evening, when I received a call from UPS.
The Terminator has arrived!
Lu Li stood at the gate, and soon a container truck arrived and unloaded a long, large box.
After signing for it, I took it to the garage and opened the box, revealing a metallic body gleaming with a silvery-gray luster.
"Hmm... it looks quite similar to the T800."
The metal body before them had a completely humanoid appearance, complete with limbs, torso, head, and even fingers and toes.
Overall, it resembles the Terminator from the movie, only more rounded and refined, without those exposed wires and hydraulic pipes.
"The skeleton, joints, and tendons are made of tungsten-cobalt cemented carbide, while the elastic components are made of Titanium alloy."
"A well-balanced combination of metal materials, and the weight kept at 200 kilograms... not bad."
Lu Li grew increasingly satisfied with the sight. The next step was to bring this metallic body to life, making it a true [Terminator].
This time, I certainly can't be as casual as I was with the last "lifelike doll".
Lu Li first took out two pieces of jade from the Wang Family's ancestral tomb from his pocket.
The Xia Country had a long-standing tradition of burying jade. The ancients firmly believed that jade could collect the soul, and that burying jade with the deceased would give them the possibility of being resurrected.
At this moment, Lu Li's eyes narrowed, and he used his Mind Power to manipulate the jade stones to grind and squeeze each other.
In about 10 seconds, it was ground into a fine "jade powder" like dust.
Lu Li raised his hand again and summoned the Kunlun Mirror, from which he extracted a ball-sized mass of blue fluorescence.
This is a [Thoughtless Meditation] level Divine Soul, as fragile as a soap bubble.
Lu Li carefully pinched it, slowly letting it blend into the jade powder.
The moment the two were combined, the jade powder shimmered with a deep blue light.
Lu Li then split this beautiful light into two streams, injecting them into the metal body's forehead and heart, respectively.
At this point, the jade powder did not integrate into the metal; it simply adhered to the surface.
Lu Li's eyes immediately sharpened, and he poured thirty percent of his mental energy into the metal body!
A blue light also flashed across the metal surface that permeated the soul.
In the next instant, the deep blue jade powder rushed in and disappeared.
The metal body's fingers twitched, its whole body trembled, and it suddenly stood up.
Suddenly, two tiny blue fluorescent dots, no bigger than grains of rice, appeared in its eye sockets.
These points of light, devoid of any warmth, became the puppet's pupils, adding an eerie touch.
What awakened this metallic body was Lu Li's Mind Power, which also seeped into the bones along with the jade powder.
Lu Li felt as if he could control this thing as if he were controlling his toes.
A thought flashed through my mind: [Smash this box!]
The metal body swung its fist and smashed the wooden crate that had contained it into pieces.
Thus, the first Terminator was born.
But the experiment has only just begun.
Judging from that punch, the Terminator only has the agility and strength of an ordinary person, so taking him to another world wouldn't be of much help.
Lu Li looked at the Divine Soul stored in the Kunlun Mirror. The next step was to strengthen it and find the best ratio of Divine Soul.
Because there won't be just one Terminator.
My stomach was upset, so I arrived late.
