As if to confirm Wen Nan's suspicion, the elliptical egg in his palm vibrated with a "zzz" twice, causing the data cable trailing from its tail to sway with it.
Seeing Wen Nan frozen in place, the robotic vacuum moved forward a little and gently bumped against Wen Nan's toe. A line of text popped up on its small screen—
[D.U.D.U. Chip! Adapter! Insert!]
Wen Nan: ...
Wen Nan looked helplessly, flipped over the vibrating sphere, and saw at its base a slot similar to a SIM card slot, seemingly just the right size to fit the chip.
So, put the D.U.D.U. chip into this slot, then, place this so-called "adapter" into Guan Ailin's body?
Thinking of this, Wen Nan suspiciously looked at the robotic vacuum next to his foot, "Previously, that adapter was obviously just a normal marker pen. How co yours is so... weird?"
Upon hearing this, the robotic vacuum's bean-shaped eyes shot up vertically, resembling a small crab, and text quickly appeared on its screen—
[Obscene minds see obscenities, Father!]
Wen Nan: ...
Whoever trained this AI, is there sothing wrong with it?
However, with the device in Wen Nan's hand, this matter after all involved repairing Guan Ailin, he had no choice but to give it a try.
Wen Nan looked up towards the stairs and saw Yu Shujun still standing by the handrail, watching the "adapter" in his hand with full vigilance, putting his mind at ease as he took out the chip from the storage ring.
With a "click", the chip was inserted into the slot.
The elliptical adapter imdiately began to vibrate rapidly, almost as if it was about to fly out of Wen Nan's palm the next mont.
The robotic vacuum next to Wen Nan rumbled over, positioning itself near his feet, its bottom brushes turning as it quietly reeled the data cable from the vibrating sphere into its chassis…
Swish—!
A blinding white light suddenly flashed before his eyes, followed by ringing in his ears, as if soone had suddenly thrown a flashbang.
Wen Nan squinted his eyes and instinctively bent over to dodge.
After a while, the white light disappeared, and his vision beca clear again.
... What's happening?
Wen Nan glanced around, and soon after, he heard a clattering sound coming from downstairs.
Putting away the chip and adapter in his hand, Wen Nan quickly walked down from the stairway, imdiately seeing the ground floor of two rooms littered with Wenna Guild mbers lying in disarray.
The mbers had flushed faces and closed eyes, with satisfied smiles on their faces, all looking as if they were dead drunk.
In the room, there was only one figure standing alone at the door, with their back to Wen Nan, seemingly doing sothing.
The figure appeared very thin and not too tall, with hunched shoulders, making them look sowhat shady.
The person was wearing a plain-colored T-shirt, with a hood covering the entire head, hiding their face.
This was definitely not a mber of Wenna Guild, but just a glance at that person's back made a na pop up in Wen Nan's mind.
That person sensed Wen Nan approaching and imdiately turned around. Upon seeing Wen Nan's face, they quickly pulled down their hood, revealing a pointed, weasel-like face.
They grinned at Wen Nan, looking even more sleazy, raised an index finger, and shook it up and down, pointing at Wen Nan, "So you really are here!"
Wen Nan stared at the person's face and blurted out the na in his mind, "Water Monkey?"
The man referred to as "Water Monkey" grinned even wider, almost extending his lips to his ears, as he looked at Wen Nan and emphatically shouted, "Peng, Yu, Yan!"
Wen Nan placed his fist against his lips and gave a couple of dry coughs to conceal his expression, quietly saying, "I haven't used that na for many years."
Water Monkey laughed twice, looking Wen Nan up and down, rubbing his chin, "For sure! You're so handso now, even gods and ghosts would be awed, such a small nickna doesn't befit you anymore."
Saying this, Water Monkey raised his hand, wanting to put his arm around Wen Nan's shoulder as before, but found the other was now too tall. Even if he stood on tiptoe, he couldn't reach Wen Nan's shoulder and could only awkwardly lower his arm, patting Wen Nan's back instead.
"I say, Nanzi, how long has it been since we've seen each other? How did you turn out this handso?"
Wen Nan hadn't liked Water Monkey calling him "Nanzi" in the past, as the "Nan" in his na pronounced like "Na" in "Namo Amitabha," and Water Monkey, unsure of his pronunciation, always pronounced it like "Nai Zi," making Wen Nan want to cover his mouth each ti he heard it.
But at this mont, in the ga world, hearing this na after so long, Wen Nan surprisingly didn't mind, even feeling a bit nostalgic.
He raised an eyebrow, ignoring the other's question, asking in return, "How are you still as ugly as before?"
"You don't get it, ugliness is my protective color," Water Monkey's face was even thicker than Wen Nan's, "With my interesting soul, if I had a good-looking shell to match, I'd be afraid even female ghosts would be unable to move their feet after seeing ."
"Get lost." Wen Nan took a step aside, creating so distance between them, "Stay away from , don't let your narcissism infect ."
Water Monkey chuckled, glanced at the mbers lying crookedly on the floor, and stepped outside, "It's too cramped here, not even a place to stand, co on, let's go to my place."
Wen Nan followed him out, turning his head to ask, "Your place?"
Water Monkey nodded, "My guild, quite grand!"
"You have your own guild now?" Wen Nan could hardly believe it, "Back then, you transferred your account to , I thought you lost your qualification to even enter this ga, didn't expect you to co back and get a guild so quickly?"
Water Monkey chuckled, talking about this couldn't help but ask, "I say, Nanzi, how's it going with the account I transferred to you, good to use?"
Back when he transferred the account in a rush, Wen Nan hadn't even had a chance to read the ga instructions before jumping in, he was quite unprepared at the start.
But no matter, a small problem like that wasn't going to stump him.
"Pretty good," Wen Nan nodded, thought for a mont, and added, "just the na Ye Jiu isn't great."
"Why not? One night, Jiu cilang!" Water Monkey sighed, "It fits your disposition perfectly."
The two laughed and talked as they quickly arrived in front of a building.
Looking up at the white high walls, Wen Nan's expression turned cold imdiately.
Yet Water Monkey pointed at the gate and said, "My guild, quite grand, huh!"
Wen Nan's face went pale, his eyes fixed on the plaque above the gate, which only had two words on it—Taoyuan.
