I have seen super-intelligent robots in my previous life, but this is the first time that a mechanical puppet like Liu Zi, which uses only ordinary gears, can be made into a real person.
Moreover, even if all the materials are available, it cannot be reproduced without adjusting the neural circuits and the number of main cylinders. This is far beyond the production level of ordinary people!
"I really want to meet him."
Kobayashi sighed.
...By the way, why not go again!
He might not be able to see the mysterious 【Y】, but he could communicate and learn with other high-level masters, and he could also search for some gears suitable for Liu Zi as a reserve, killing two birds with one stone.
The most important thing is that Liu Zi also wants to go back. After all, it was my momentary negligence that brought her to another world.
Not everyone can adapt to the unknown world.
Liu Zi is obviously more suitable for living in the original technological world. Not only can he use high-tech to attack from a lower dimension, but even if there is a problem with the gear, he can repair it.
In a different world like Pixel Qing, it is still difficult to fix her.
"No, I don't want to go back."
Liu Zi's answer was unexpected.
Xiao Lin was puzzled and asked, "Don't you want to return to your own world and find your sisters?"
"I don't want to." Liu Zi shook her head decisively: "My first priority is to serve Master Xiaolin. No matter which world we are in, no matter whether Master Xiaolin can punish me or not, I will follow Master Xiaolin.
Although it was programmed, the words spoken were very touching.
But even so, Xiaolin cannot be selfish.
"I've already said it before, to become a master worthy of you, I must visit that world."
"…if you insist."
It just so happened that the team was preparing to take a break during this period, so he took this opportunity to disappear for a while.
Raise the ring in your hand.
“——Travel through time!”
…
However, nothing happened.
Kobayashi blinked and looked at the ring on his index finger which did not respond at all, not understanding what went wrong.
Could it be that there is something wrong with the posture of traveling through time?
"Travel through time! Travel through time! Travel through time!"
Kobayashi tried taking off, squatting, and JOJO standing, but the ring still didn't respond.
"What is Lord Kobayashi doing? Is he performing some new dance? Although it's funny, it surprisingly suits you." Liu Zi spoke sarcastically in confusion.
But Xiaolin was a little panicked. He found that not only could he not travel to the world of "Clockwork Star", he couldn't even travel to other ordinary worlds.
Rushed to the hall in a hurry.
"Aqua! Aqua!"
“W-What happened?!”
The stupid goddess, who didn't know what she was doing secretly, hurriedly hid something behind her when she heard Kobayashi Kobayashi calling her name. Judging from the exposed edge, it should be a bottle of bubble wine.
He didn't have time to lecture her about her useless life of drinking during the day, he was more concerned about another thing.
"Aqua, why can't I travel to Ryushi's world?"
"...Hmm, it's probably because you didn't set the coordinates to establish the channel."
“Huh?!”
"You see, there are countless unknown worlds in the entire starry sky. It's also unknown which world you will go to. If you want to get there accurately, you need the exact coordinates of that world."
Just like making a phone call.
If you want to talk to your friends and family, you need to know their exact phone number, otherwise you will just call someone else.
"Then why didn't you say so earlier?!...No, it's not all your fault."
Even if Aqua told him, he was almost hit by a container falling from the sky at that time, and it was impossible for him to set the coordinates in a panic.
"Why can't I travel through time?!"
"That's because I have no energy left."
"What did you say?"
"Time travel requires energy, isn't that normal? Don't you know the law of conservation of energy, Xiaolin? This is something we learned in junior high school."
She said it as a matter of course.
Kobayashi had only one thought in his mind.
——Being ridiculed!
Being mocked by a stupid goddess?!
"What did you say?! Say it again if you dare!"
Xiaolin rubbed her face vigorously and questioned her word by word.
The force used was so strong that Aqua screamed in pain and begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was really wrong!!!"
But Kobayashi was so angry that he refused to stop.
At the same time, he also remembered that when Aqua was teaming up with Sato Kazuma, she once said that she wanted to charge the ring. He thought she said that on purpose to keep him, but he didn't expect that she really wanted to charge it!
Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!
You shouldn't have expected anything from Aqua!
They'd been together for too long, and with so few opportunities to act silly lately, Xiaolin had gradually neglected her. Was he actually waiting for her here?!
Xiaolin suppressed his anger.
After all, no matter how angry you are, it cannot solve the fact that you cannot cross.
what to do?
Do I need to buy magic stones and crystals to recharge like before?
Thinking of this, Xiaolin asked curiously, "Aqua, if we use magic crystals to charge, how many of them would be enough to travel through time?"
"Hmm... 1,000? It's not as powerful as divine power, but what it lacks in quality it makes up for in quantity... probably."
“1000?!”
Xiaolin smacked his lips after hearing this.
1,000 magic crystals equal 100 million Eris. No wonder the few magic crystals he invested didn't make much of a splash.
However, for wealthy people, exchanging 100 million Eris for the opportunity to travel across worlds is definitely a good deal.
But it's not so friendly to Xiaolin. How long will it take him to save up 100 million Eris?
Fortunately, he had another solution.
"Aqua, help me recharge."
“Eh—”
She seemed to find it troublesome.
To be honest, Xiaolin really wanted to teach her a lesson, but he held back when he thought that he would need her help in the future.
"A bottle of bubbly."
"……What?"
"A bottle of premium bubbly wine in exchange for helping me charge my ring."
"High-end bubble wine?"
Aqua seemed to be moved.
Just when Kobayashi thought the plan was successful, she refused.
"Divine power is very important! To a god, divine power is everything. A weakening of divine power means a weakening of the god. Do you understand the seriousness of this problem?!"
Is that really the case?
Although Aqua is of a higher generation, she has few followers and her divine power is naturally not as strong as that of gods like Eris. Charging the ring must be a burden for her.
"Does Xiaolin think he can buy me off with just a bottle of bubbly?"
"I'm sorry, it's me..."
"Two bottles!"
“…………”
Are you also a lay Buddhist who adds money?
