Coincidentally, the 10 Terminators I ordered arrived on the same day as the armor.
After signing for the package, Lu Li closed the garage door and casually waved his hand.
"Number 0" immediately stepped forward, neatly placed the boxes against the wall, and then unpacked the wooden crates containing the armor.
Its streamlined appearance is extremely attractive, and the "boron nitride" armor on the surface has a crystal-like texture.
This is the second hardest man-made material after diamond, and it is often used for polishing steel.
"Professor Wei said he could assemble and disassemble it..."
Lu Li glanced at the instruction manual, then his gaze sharpened as he stared at the battle armor.
The thing split into 10 parts, flew into the air, and slipped onto its body one by one, locking in place with a series of clicks.
With the armor in the activated state, the built-in levers will open, and by simply tightening the two arm guards inward, the armor will slowly close like flower petals.
It felt a little tight, and Lu Li looked at the knob on his waist.
Turning the knob counterclockwise once made the armor looser.
"Phew, that's heavy, but Xiao Cha should be able to handle it."
Lu Li removed his armor with satisfaction and had "Number 0" put it back in the wooden box.
Next, we'll add two new partners to "Number 0".
"Number 0" opened two long wooden crates, revealing two identical metal bodies.
Following the same steps as before, Lu Li first ground several pieces of jade into powder, letting the jade dust float in the air.
Then he summoned the Kunlun Mirror and shaped the Divine Soul of ordinary people into the jade powder.
Ordinary Divine Soul strength is very low. I especially remember using the "Thoughtless Meditation" Divine Soul, which turned the jade powder into a dark blue galaxy with just one use.
At this moment, all 108 Divine Soul within the Kunlun Mirror were merged into it, leaving only a faint blue light.
After estimating the difference, Lu Li was somewhat surprised:
"The difference in Divine Soul strength between ordinary people and those Cultivator Thoughtless Meditation is a full two hundred times!"
Even though both are at the third level, those Organ Refining are 10 times stronger than ordinary people.
This sounds more like normal; Spirit Refinement is truly beyond comprehension.
These hundred-plus ordinary Divine Soul aren't enough to power one "Terminator," so it seems we'll have to use the two remaining Thoughtless Meditation Divine Soul.
So the question is, should we wake up one device, or two?
If two units are awakened, the lack of a "Meditative Entry" Divine Soul means their intelligence will definitely be inferior to "Number 0"...
Lu Li pondered for a few seconds, but still believed that quality was more important than quantity in warfare.
Moreover, it's good to cultivate a Divine Soul "Thoughtless Meditation" for unforeseen circumstances.
So he pinched Li Guanqi's Divine Soul into jade powder, and together with a hundred ordinary Divine Soul, merged it into the metal body.
The fingers twitched, and the body suddenly stood up, two tiny, eerie blue spots of light appearing in its pupils.
The second Terminator has been born.
From now on, your name will be -- A'da!
Lu Li immediately gave a name, then issued the command: [Get dressed]
"A'da" immediately found a bulletproof suit and put it on.
It used 50 more ordinary divine Divine Soul, but it was missing one that Meditative Entry Divine Soul, and its intelligence was slightly lower than that of "Number 0".
For example, when buttoning a shirt, your fingers aren't as dexterous.
Interestingly, it specifically chose an "outdoor cycling mask" without a skull pattern, along with a pair of aviator sunglasses.
Do you have your own preferences...?
Lu Li found the puppets very interesting; although they had no thoughts, they possessed some strange instincts.
Next, I spent a lot of time "recharging" the two puppets, and then the mission was successfully completed.
After lighting two Calming Incense, Lu Li began to consider returning to the other world.
Once back, my main goal is to find a way to advance to the [Embryonic Breathing] realm.
Thinking back to my first visit to the Divine Heart Society, I saw that peach wood flying sword, so lively and agile that it could even relay messages for its master.
Lu Li vaguely realized. "A flying sword at the Fetal Breathing Realm is very likely a flying device with a certain degree of intelligence, like a puppet..."
~~~~~~~~
Before they knew it, the two incense sticks were finished, and it was already getting dark. Jessica and the others finally returned.
"Lu Li, I'm a really good shot! I can hit the bullseye from 200 meters away!"
Jessica's pretty face lit up with joy.
She was having a very comfortable time, unaware that she would soon be facing separation.
At that moment, Teresa, carrying a small leather suitcase containing personal belongings, walked over with Aurora.
Teresa said calmly, "Jessica, it's time for me to leave. For my safety, I won't be able to come see you for a while."
Jessica paused for a moment, then stepped forward and hugged her friend, whispering, "I'll miss you."
Teresa laughed and said, "We can video chat all the time."
Aurora also ruffled Jessica's hair and said:
"I'll make time to train you every week. I promise you won't have the energy to miss anyone else."
Jessica hugged Teresa tightly before letting go.
Teresa then respectfully said to Lu Li, "I'll leave the election to you."
Lu Li nodded and said, "I will keep my promise. You also need to be careful."
"Well... goodbye."
Teresa gave Lu Li a deep look, her emerald eyes seeming to want to say something more, but in the end she hesitated and got into the bulletproof car and left.
Watching the beautiful woman depart, Lu Li pondered how to begin.
Jessica, as if sensing something, said, "You're leaving too, aren't you?"
Lu Li nodded, and Jessica sighed, "Don't worry about me, you must be busy with something very important."
"It's a difficult thing too..." Lu Li put his arm around her soft shoulders and said:
"But you're also a very important person to me. Can I stay one more night? How about it?"
Jessica's eyes lit up immediately!
~~~~~~~~~~~
When they returned, Wan Qing gave Lu Li a generous amount of Ejiao, which he couldn't possibly finish.
Before going to bed that night, he gave Jessica another packet, instructing her, "Now you can break it into four pieces to eat."
"Okay, this is a very magical nutritional supplement. It makes you feel warm after taking it."
Jessica put the Ejiao away, then turned off the light and snuggled into Lu Li's arms.
A pair of gentle hands caressed her, making Jessica feel incredibly safe. She squirmed contentedly and said:
"Lu Li, it feels so safe and comfortable to sleep in your arms~"
"It feels good to hold you."
That's what he said, but Lu Li, feeling guilty, hunched over.
Jessica smiled mischievously, her big, dark eyes sparkling, and waited patiently for a while.
Once Lu Li's breathing had evened out, he slipped under the covers and disappeared.
Lu Li was almost asleep when she suddenly opened her eyes wide. "Hiss! You audacious brat!"
With a "rip," he tore the bed sheet to shreds.
The call of a wren came from outside the window, and Jessica lay down after she got tired of calling.
Seeing Lu Li glaring at her, she licked her lips, giggled, swallowed, and said:
"Don't be angry, I didn't break the promise."
Lu Li didn't know what to say, "I'm not angry... thank you."
Jessica smiled and said, "It's what I should do. I not only want to be your right-hand woman, but also your paradise of pleasure!"
