The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1085 - 420: This Old Man is Beyond Saving_3

"Hey, old man."

Little GuaGua morphed into Ye Hanjun’s form, stood by his side, hands on hips, his presence overwhelming,

"There are several people standing here. Are you pretending not to see us on purpose?"

"We’ve gone through hell and high water to keep our promise, traveling from the Cloud Sea to the West Sea, and you ignore us. That’s really too much!"

"Who is speaking?"

Xiahou Danxin looked around, exerting considerable effort, until at last he spotted several figures in the corner.

His eyes briefly revealed confusion as he said,

"Strange, who are you? How did you end up in my research base?"

"Are you the child of a dazed guard? Eh, who is a dazed guard? That name sounds so familiar..."

"Big Tadpole."

GuaGua reverted to his original form, hands on his forehead, tugging at the corner of Ye Hanjun’s clothes,

"This old man is beyond help."

"After hundreds of years, his madness seems to have gotten even worse."

"He doesn’t look reliable. Does he really remember the way home? What if we follow him and get sold off?!"

"Xiaoqi, Xiaoxiong, switch to mecha form."

Ye Hanjun pursed his lips and suddenly issued an order.

"Hiss!" "Baa baa!!"

She Xiaoxiong was very obedient, while Yang Xiaoqi, despite being mischievous, also had a cooperative side.

The always troublemaking Little Lazy Lion, whether in the Contract Space or reality, seemed oblivious to the change in surroundings, always sound asleep.

Accustomed to such behavior, it once again received a "mixed doubles" punishment.

She Xiaoxiong gnawed at its eyeball while Yang Xiaoqi kicked its belly. Once the two heads started going wild, Little Lazy Lion’s sweet dreams were easily shattered.

"Roar?"

Little Lazy Lion woke up, the sleep in its eyes thick enough to burst.

Plainly, it couldn’t grasp what had happened, and couldn’t think of any emergency that would warrant more attention than its sleep.

"Alright then, still so sleepy, it seems your Core Personality hasn’t changed!"

"I declare this to be the perfect Double Seal Fusion! The ultimate fusion between ’Savage’ and ’Mechanism’! It has epoch-making significance!"

Had Xiahou Danxin been a giant rather than a human, by now he would have been hugging and embracing Lion Head’s head.

Because of his small stature, he could only bang, bang, bang against Little Lazy Lion’s mechanical shell to vent the shock and joy in his heart.

Yang Xiaoqi: (▼ヘ▼#)

She Xiaoxiong: (▼皿▼#)

The Human Master said to switch to mecha form!

You lazy bum, what’s with the dawdling? Transform now!

"Bang bang bang!"

The mixed doubles punishment continued.

Despite all the beating, Little Lazy Lion neither became angry nor resisted.

It wiped the sleep from its eyes and gave itself a slap, its befuddled consciousness gradually awakening.

Then... it obtained its original form’s permissions, and the three heads’ consciousnesses synchronized, and the Unparalleled Skills "Mode Switching: Mecha Form" successfully activated.

"Clang clang... thump thump clang clang!"

Exoskeleton reformed, chest plates split and reassembled, and within about ten seconds, the humanoid upright "Chimera Mecha," shone as it made its appearance.

"What what what... what is this?"

Xiahou Danxin was completely stupefied, looking up at the mechanical giant, his eyes sparkling with the brilliance of a supernova explosion:

"Mecha? Mecha form?!"

"No, that’s not right! I never designed such code!"

"Oh! I get it now! Is this how the Conjoined Mechanical Body demonstrates its Great Completion? A trinity, with the brain online, combat, everyday living... all functions reaching the perfect synchronization frequency?!"

Xiahou Danxin suddenly hugged his head, tears streaming down his face, though the smile at the corner of his mouth was unstoppable:

"Ha ha ha! Hahaha!"

"I am truly a genius! To create such a miraculous life, I have no regrets in this life!"

"You lot, hurry, follow me to Mechanic God Mountain before I die!"

"Not only do I want to die in my homeland, but I also want my name permanently etched on the peak of the mountain. If no one from the next three generations of mechanisms surpasses me, I will be the brightest one of all! No one will ever look down on me again!"

"Eh? Old man, how come you’ve become lucid again?"

GuaGua couldn’t grasp the situation, wondering why this guy was normal one moment and extremely agitated the next.

"If it weren’t for the medication, I’d already be dead!"

"Just a minor side effect, not worth mentioning. My Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits are used to it, and so can you!"

In an instant, Xiahou Danxin mounted the mechanical gazelle king, not taking anything with him, ready to break through the wall.

"Wait, senior."

Ye Hanjun stopped him, asking solemnly,

"Senior, I still have one matter to attend to before I can leave the West Sea."

"What could be more important than returning to Mechanic God Mountain?"

Xiahou Danxin showed astonishment, completely failing to understand.

"I need to visit the Corpse Dragon Queen’s clan and meet the current Clan Leader."

Ye Hanjun bowed slightly, declaring respectfully,

"This matter is of utmost importance, involving a friend of mine as well as the future of a clan. I must go."

"However, I am ultimately unfamiliar with the West Sea."

"If the senior could assist, it would surely shorten the time and not cause too much delay."

"Troublesome! Really troublesome!"

Xiahou Danxin huffed, clearly agitated.

Yet turning his head to see the majestic standing Chimera Mecha, his eyes lit up:

"Fine, I’ll show you the way. Be quick about it, and don’t dawdle!"

"If I remember correctly, the Corpse Dragon Queen resides in the northwest region of the West Sea. When you see a sea floor covered with sunken corpses stretching far and wide, you’re roughly near their territory!"

"But... you need to be careful!"

"More than a hundred years ago, when I was last lucid, I heard their old Clan Leader had died, and the rest of their kin were extremely on edge!"

"The current Clan Leader you mentioned should be Shi Li, right? A very young member of the Corpse Race, born just an epoch ago."

"But what does it matter? The decline of a clan’s fate is irreversible. Life and death are the essence of this world; what can you change? Don’t waste your time for nothing..."
