Chapter 1599: Chapter 511: The End of the Mechanical City Arc

Yuan’s promise finally gave Wen Xishu some confidence.

This is someone who can hold their own against the constellations, and the technology tree of the Mechanical City is inherently suited for searching clues.

He can wait for a day.

"It’s urgent. If I can’t return to the Bunker, there might be a big problem. So I hope you can help me find Capricorn as soon as possible," Wen Xishu said.

"I will also try to find it myself, and later, I will use the Compass to look for it."

Yuan said:

"I will assign more personnel, and Taurus will help you find it as well. From this moment, I’ve already given the orders."

"As for you, no matter what means you have, just wait a bit longer."

Wen Xishu suddenly remembered something about Taurus, who promised that the non-human tribes from the Divine-Demon Dao, Vengeful Spirit Dao, and Ten Thousand Beasts Path would come to help him.

But where are they?

"Have you seen Taurus’s people?"

Yuan nodded: "During your coma, they came here. I also told them that with your help, I have successfully awakened."

"After they learned that the task was completed, they left. Don’t worry, Taurus will owe you a favor. He will know you turned the tide and averted a crisis."

"If you need to find Capricorn, he will also fully cooperate."

Wen Xishu found it somewhat incredible:

"You and Taurus..."

Yuan said:

"He knows very well that offending me is unwise, and we both know each other’s domains, so we chose to form an alliance."

Wen Xishu understood. It seems that during his coma, a lot of things happened. ℯℯ𝑙.

Yuan said:

"There’s one more thing. Consider it your reward."

Wen Xishu didn’t understand:

"What?"

As Wen Xishu was puzzled, a mechanical core appeared.

"I said before, I hope you become another master of the Mechanical City, but at the same time, I must preserve your human identity."

"So, over these few days, I did something. I improved your body, and from now on, it has become a tool. You can summon your mechanical core. Once it responds to your summons, it will transform you back into the Mechanical Race."

"You can also cancel this summon at any time to return to human form. The material of your body has been upgraded."

"However... you’d better not use the Albert form, as that form can still overextend your power."

Finally... finally, some good news, he knows his generous reward!

The mechanical body had turned into a tool, which greatly surprised Wen Xishu!

The Scorpio form and Pisces form are extremely useful.

Wen Xishu had to admit, if this thing had levels, it would be top-tier even among orange-grade items.

It could be said that having this as a reward made this journey worthwhile. Of course, if he could return to the Bunker, that would be even better.

Seeing the uncontainable joy on Wen Xishu’s face, Yuan was also happy, but she still issued an order to leave:

"Our conversation ends here. Since you’re unwilling to be my husband, we shouldn’t talk for too long. You should rest for a day and wait for news from me and Taurus."

"You could go accompany Xiaoxiao. He already sees you as a life mentor."

Wen Xishu felt something was off, but couldn’t figure it out. After thinking, he decided to go find Zhou Xiaoxiao first.

Once Wen Xishu’s figure left the Throne District, Yuan revealed a sly smile, her conspiracy succeeded.

After the Heart Demon died, her consciousness returned, no longer oppressed by pain and innate sequences. With Zhou Xiaoxiao’s appearance, she realized she had done something terrifying.

Zhou Xiaoxiao desperately sought help, longing to save Wen Xishu. Yuan saved Wen Xishu immediately.

Meanwhile, through Xiaoxiao’s recount, Yuan learned how Wen Xishu completed what seemed an impossible task, step by step, miraculously.

Originally, she intended to help Wen Xishu return to being human immediately because Xiaoxiao already knew, via the Bullet Screen, the reasons for Wen Xishu’s arrival here and his goal.

She planned to help Wen Xishu fulfill his wish. She could even lift the mechanical state of all Mechanical Race beings in the Mechanical City, turning them human.

But then...

Other non-human tribes just happened to arrive.

Learning that Wen Xishu could indeed wake the berserk Mechanical Goddess shocked the leaders of other non-human tribes greatly.

They did not choose to leave directly because Wen Xishu completed the task alone. They did one more thing.

They brought a message from Taurus.

"Please delay Mr. Wen Xishu’s time in turning back into a human as much as possible. This is the wish of my master, Taurus."

The leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts race had horns but also wings, like a mythical creature from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas."

He conveyed Taurus’s thoughts to Yuan, more or less to the effect of — Wen Xishu is a rare talent, returning to the Bunker would be a great pity.

If he stays outside for seven days and maintains a non-human identity, he won’t return to the Bunker or be erased by the seven-day rule.

After all, when Zheng Zai received the non-human invitation, it was essentially a means by Taurus to win Zheng Zai over, not to murder him.

Once turned non-human, it’s a different set of rules. Only by maintaining human identity will the rules erase you after seven days.

And Yuan was very eager for Wen Xishu to stay.

Because she longed to repay Wen Xishu and... control him.
