Chapter 162 The Big Secret of Hongdou

Chapter 162 The Big Secret of Hongdou
The thought just now seemed very safe.

A reward from the Lord of Change!

As a live broadcast performer, what would be wrong with Li Yu accepting it?
But is this thought necessarily true?
What if this idea is also a calculation?

After accepting it, you will most likely fall completely into the trap of the Lord of Change and end up in a miserable situation.

You must know that he is an extremely powerful evil god who likes to scheme against others and provoke wars, purely for fun.

……

These tangled thoughts did not linger in Li Yu's mind for too long and soon dissipated.

There is no other reason. If it is really the "Lord of All Changes" who is plotting against him, a mere Sequence Seven cultivator.

Then he would not be able to escape no matter what. Even if the true god [Spirit Lord] on his path was still alive, he would not be able to protect him forever, not to mention that Spirit Lord was gone.

Of course, it’s not like there is really no solution at all.

"Accept the gift first, then use the Bubble of Truth to check if there are any traps."

"Anyway, my thirteenth and fourteenth are now in perfect condition, and I have stored some charging paths. It is appropriate to use one here."

“This seemingly dilapidated [Immortal Castle] can not only help me advance to Sequence 6, but it may also be of great use in the future.”

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Yu also made a decision.

First he went alone, then he returned on the Ancient God Train and completely settled down in his new residence.

Although he doesn't live with the other eight chosen ones, it's almost the same.

The City Lord's Mansion required that Li Yu's dilapidated mechanical castle must not leave the "Ancient God Camp" too far and must often be summoned and wait for missions.

In addition, various supplies had to go to the camp or return to Wanfu City.

He accepted all these requests.

Li Yu’s current “situation” is much better than before.

Not only do they no longer have to endure the terrorist threats from Holy Nest, but their welfare benefits are also far better than when they were in the Ninth Pioneer Team.

This is the treatment of a genius!
It is also a reflection of value.

"The fatal threat has been temporarily resolved. I will settle here so that I can have more contact with people from the Tiangong Sect in the future."

“So next, I only need to do one thing.”

"That is the path to advancement to Spiritual Venerable, [Taoist Medicine]."

"It's urgent and there's no time to waste."

Li Yu thought so in his heart.

But he still did not take immediate action, such as looking for the Flame Essence and Blood Tongue from outer space, refining the "Dan Fire Furnace" and "Sublimation Ingestion".

Instead, she continued to wait for Hongdou's action. She was scanning, analyzing, evaluating and taking over the entire mechanical castle.

When she succeeds, all the secrets in this castle will be revealed.

Only then could Li Yu take action.

During this process, he was keenly aware of the emotions of the round mechanical life in front of him.

The little thing was turning around uncomfortably, and symbols of panic, sadness, expectation, etc. flashed alternately on the two eye-shaped green crystal display screens.

Obviously it is trying hard to digest and accept the cruel reality that its "home" has a new owner again.

Only when you look at your collection room, the red heart symbol representing happiness will appear on the display screen and flash wildly.

Because of the high intelligence and pure emotions it displayed, Li Yu did not regard it as a machine or an object.

Instead, they subconsciously treat it as a human cub.

Seeing this scene, he stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Your collection looks beautiful, can I take a look?"

"Or, you can introduce yourself."

Although Li Yu has not yet been promoted to a Taoist doctor, he has not yet acquired the friendly charm that even divine creatures cannot escape.

However, his own high level of sensitivity and charm are already far beyond the standard. If there is someone who is also practicing the path of a spiritual master and is also a "master", if they simply compete in charm, they will be crushed into dust in seconds by Li Yu.

In fact, even a practitioner who specializes in this field may not be able to defeat him.

This is a fusion of the demon body, the blessing of Yige, the daughter of the God of Whirlpool, and Li Yu's own personal charm. It is quite amazing.

For example, the little robot at this moment couldn't resist.

Hearing his words and the gentle tone of his voice, the little thing immediately felt that the new master in front of it was very different from any of its previous masters.

On the display screen, there was first a question mark representing doubt.

Then, there is the exclamation mark.

Finally, it turned into a laughing symbol representing excitement. Its round body spun in the air, and then it took the initiative to lead the way in front.

He began to introduce his collection to Li Yu one by one.

Li Yu did this initially just out of courtesy, and also to get closer to this special mechanical life, and also to give Hongdou time to control the entire castle.

Naturally, I don’t really care about the so-called collections.

But as the childish mechanical voice sounded one sentence after another, the extraordinary information contained in it made Li Yu couldn't help but become serious.

"Master, look at this scarlet gem. It is actually the excrement of a spirit monster called [Star Spirit]. Although this monster is a nightmare to flesh and blood creatures, their excrement is very beautiful."

"Because the blood they suck from different creatures is different, even if it is the same star spirit, the gems it excretes every day are different, because there is still some blood and essence left in it. Sometimes when they are extremely hungry, they will chew the gems again... In order to snatch this gem, I was chased by a star spirit for a long time. Fortunately, it was finally driven away... Anyway, it was scared away."

……

"I picked up this iridescent scale. Its owner is a special race called the Celestial Snake People, who occupy a large strange area. This race has a very strong fighting power. It is said that the poison they make can even poison gods."

"Of course, more importantly, their scales look great."

……

"This jade bead is really very beautiful, but I didn't steal it... I found it. It was given to me by a 'wanderer' passing by."

"I suspect it was a god, or an incarnation or something."

"But I have no evidence, and the bead itself does not possess any divine power. It just looks good."

"Every ten years, it explodes with a strange phenomenon, releasing a lake of green light that almost submerges the castle. It is extremely beautiful."

……

As the little robot continued to speak, the fifteenth bubble of truth in Li Yu's eye mask began to charge faster.

That's right!

These "junk collections" of the little thing may seem to be of no use, but the extraordinary information contained in them is genuine.

In a way, it can be considered a diary of a journey through the spirit world?
It is a witness to the wandering of the little robot and the immortal castle.

At the same time, Li Yu also felt that these junks might not really be junks, it just depended on how they were used.

The more he listened, the happier he became.

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the "Blood Gem of Star Spirit" at the beginning. It seems useless, but in fact it can be used as bait to catch Star Spirit.

"The Lord of Change is really generous in his reward. Did I really pick up a treasure this time?"

"What a steal!" "The City Lord's Mansion is a complete mistake."

"These things seem to be all trash. Well, to some extent, they are. But a lot of them have a history."

"The little thing is driving a shabby castle, and he can collect these things at home... It's impossible that it's just so useless on the surface, even if this castle has been constantly damaged and repaired, and has completely lost the power of the first version and turned into rubbish."

"But since Hongdou has determined that the little thing has inherited everything from its first owner, it is naturally possible for it to recover."

Thinking of this, Li Yu looked at the little robot more eagerly.

He could choose to treat it as a "mechanical slave".

After all, he has openly acknowledged his master!

But Li Yu didn't intend to do so.

In fact, even Hong Dou, who was devoted to him and allowed him to have whatever he wanted, was never treated badly by Li Yu.

After all, he is a soul from the previous life, and he will choose to treat all beings with truly high intelligence and high emotions equally.

So at this moment, Li Yu praised sincerely:

"They are all very beautiful and nice collections. You have really good taste."

"I promise you that not only will I not destroy anything in your collection, but I will also continue to support your collecting hobby in the future."

It can be said that Li Yu is worthy of being a person who can make the daughter of the God of Whirlpool feel good about him.

The two sincere words caused hot steam to come out of the little robot's body, and on a pair of green crystal display screens, symbols such as tears, red hearts, and exclamation marks flashed alternately.

Obviously, the little thing had a lot of emotional ups and downs, and had developed an unprecedented sense of trust in its new owner.

This is easy to understand!
The past few owners of this little thing were not good people.

After being captured by the City Lord's Mansion, he would probably be treated like garbage.

Suddenly, a normal, friendly person showed up, and my favorability immediately skyrocketed.

So the next moment, when Li Yu seemed to "inadvertently" ask a series of questions, the little thing gave true answers without hesitation.

“Does your collecting hobby come from your creator?”

"What kind of being is that? What race is it? What abilities does it have?"

"What did this [Immortal Castle] look like in the beginning?"

……

"Yes, I like to collect these shiny and beautiful things. They come from my creator... This is one of the programs he set for me."

"I don't know what kind of existence he is. I hadn't really been born yet, and I only had some vague consciousness."

"I occasionally heard him call himself the [Endless Collector], [Lord of Wonders], etc."

"Hearing him talk about his collection goals, he is much older than me. He likes to collect those rare objects that are truly of extraordinary value, those extraordinary objects or creatures that can witness history and participate in all major events... He will use all means to put the objects he likes into his own museum."

"His race seems to be somewhat similar to my current situation, a special soul carried by a mechanical iron lump."

"He sometimes told me, who was still pregnant, that he was an outlier in the group, but he was strong, so he was fearless."

"As for his abilities?"

"He seems to be able to stop time and make everything stop moving."

"The Immortal Castle was very new and powerful at first, but during the hundreds of years that I was born and in control of it, the castle suffered various unexpected damages from the spirit world."

“When the second owner arrived, the castle was already in a very dilapidated state.”

When Li Yu heard these answers, his expression suddenly froze.

Shock and surprise emerged at the same time.

one more time!
Li Yu was certain that he had found a treasure, and the City Lord's Mansion was in a state of panic.

Listen to the little thing’s description!

Li Yu felt that his horizons had been broadened, and it was indeed so, because the fifteenth bubble of truth was about to reach perfection again.

There is no doubt that it was because he heard some high-level extraordinary secrets.

While feeling happy, Li Yu began to have many speculations in his heart.

So at the beginning, [Immortal Castle] was really powerful and had the ability to travel through the spirit world.

The creator of this little thing is a very powerful being of a very high sequence, possibly even some kind of divine creature, and may not be really dead.

How could a powerful person who dares to call himself the Endless Collector and the Master of Wonderful Objects, and who can make time stop, die inexplicably?
Li Yu shook his head secretly to express his disbelief.

Just when Li Yu was about to continue asking questions, something unexpected happened at Hongdou's place on the other side.

Her fox eyes, which originally flashed red regularly, suddenly began to emit wisps of cold, deadly, and malice-filled green light.

The warning sounded throughout the castle.

"Drip drip!"

"Warning, warning, an unknown incident occurred during the analysis process... The Tiangong Secret Core was invaded... Activate reverse invasion mode..."

"The invasion failed... the other party's intelligence level is too high..."

"Preliminary analysis: The intruder is a trap program left behind by some high-level intelligent life form... Danger! Danger!"

"The Tiangong secret core will be formatted... and controlled into some kind of zombie machine!"

When Li Yu heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

This kind of change is the first time.

Li Yu had already anticipated Hongdou's condition and knew that she couldn't be just a Linglong doll.

She might be hiding a big secret.

The reason why I didn’t figure it out at first is very simple.

The power of the truth bubble that Li Yu used at that time was too low.

With each subsequent bubble, his power continued to increase, but he never had the time to touch the red beans again.

In daily interactions and perceptions, Li Yu also had some guesses about Hongdou's condition.

She should have been a strong person or something extraordinary!
But later, a major accident occurred, which resulted in the direct destruction of the Tiangong secret core and complete amnesia.

Therefore, every time a little bit of her secret core is restored, she will undergo a huge change.

Over the past few days, Li Yu has become deeply dependent on his mechanical maid.

He had long planned to find an opportunity to use a Bubble of Truth on Hongdou, both to find out what was going on with her and to see if he could find a solution for her.

For example, after settling into this new residence!

But what I didn't expect was that such a big change happened suddenly.

At this moment, when Li Yu heard that Hongdou might be formatted.

Without hesitation, he shattered the thirteenth bubble of truth.

The soul of truth left the body and touched Hongdou.

ps: Soliciting a name for the little thing. It has social phobia and mild depression, but has great potential. If you have any ideas, please leave a comment here.
