Chapter 315 Yu Sheng’s Thoughts
Yu Sheng spent a long time explaining to Little Red Riding Hood how the spaceship came about - and by the way, he also told Irene and the others about what happened to him after he followed this "tower" into deep space.
The little doll was stunned for a long time, and then used her amazing wisdom to condense Yu Sheng's long story into six words (excluding punctuation marks): "We have a spaceship!?"
Yu Sheng: “…The conclusion is this.”
Irene's eyes widened. "Fuck, you said you wanted to buy an electric car, but you didn't buy one! Do you have a driver's license? Can you drive this thing?"
Yu Sheng didn't know how this little thing's mind jumped, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This is not the same thing."
"I, I'm a bit confused, let me sort it out," Irene waved her hands repeatedly, and then she climbed onto Yu Sheng's shoulders and started laughing foolishly, "Hey, a spaceship, it feels like a big item for the family... It's really a big item! What will this spaceship be used for in the future? For a long trip? For exploring the road outside the border?"
"I haven't thought too much about it," Yu Sheng said seriously. He raised his hand and touched Irene's head, then turned to look at the others, "Do you want to go in and take a look?"
"Yes, yes!" Little Red Riding Hood nodded immediately. "This is the first time I've seen something like this..."
"That's great indeed," Xuan Che nodded, looking very interested. "The Hermitage is also a problem for our Qianfeng Lingshan, but those evil demons are very cunning, and we haven't been able to catch them after several battles. Now you have been able to seize one of their spaceships intact. This is indeed a good opportunity to get to know them better."
Little Red Riding Hood listened to Xuan Che's words and finally couldn't help but turned to Yu Sheng out of curiosity: "Um, I wanted to ask just now, who is this..."
"Ah, I was so distracted that I forgot to introduce him," Yu Sheng slapped his forehead and raised his hand to introduce him. "This is Xuan Che from Taixu Lingshu Qianfeng Lingshan—do you know this place name? I know his master, and he's here as a guest this time."
Xuan Che then politely greeted Little Red Riding Hood: "My name is Xuan Che, nice to meet this girl."
"This is Wang Jiajia, but we are more used to calling her by her code name 'Little Red Riding Hood'," Yu Sheng pointed at the girl in red next to him, "She is the leader of the 'Fairy Tale' organization, has in-depth cooperation with the 'Hotel', and is also my friend."
"Um, hello." Little Red Riding Hood seemed a little dazed. She was slow to greet Xuan Che before she suddenly realized, "Ah! Qianfeng Lingshan! Is that the Qianfeng Lingshan that sells the Immortal Elixir?"
Xuan Che smiled and nodded: "That's right."
"It's so precious," Little Red Riding Hood pursed her lips and muttered softly, "I only bought it once and it was all stolen by Long-Hair."
Xuan Che & Yu Sheng: "..."
How should I put it? This is a solid performance from Rapunzel...
Next, Yu Sheng introduced the squirrels and hunters at the scene. After everyone got to know each other, he calmed down and then casually opened an illusory door - opposite the door was the scene inside the "Pillar of Order".
Ever since he acquired the ability to open doors, he has always tried to take as few steps as possible.
After passing through the gate, the group finally stepped into the mysterious "Pillar of Order".
The church-like solemn and magnificent corridor inside the ship is impressive, and is obviously very different from the "spaceship" that Little Red Riding Hood and Irene imagined.
"...These cultists are not good people, but their aesthetic taste is good," Irene leaned on Yu Sheng's shoulder, stretched her neck to look around, and muttered, "They almost built a palace in the spaceship - there's a relief on the isolation door! There are also two marble statues next to it?!"
"Although the immortal boat built by Taixu Lingshu also has many decorations, they are mostly simple and elegant, never like this... complicated," Xuan Che also judged, "The construction period of this ship must have been very long, and a lot of effort was spent on unnecessary details. Even compared with other creations of the hermitage, it seems too gorgeous and luxurious. Its purpose must be very special, and most of it has meanings other than practicality. Considering the paranoid doctrines of the Chongsheng Hermitage, they may have built this ship with the intention of performing some large-scale rituals."
Hu Li's evaluation was much simpler: "It's too flashy, I don't like it."
"I'm going to clean out all the statues here later. I'm disgusted by these so-called 'princesses'," Yu Sheng said casually. "After cleaning them up, the corridors and rooms will be more spacious. The same goes for the reliefs and murals on the walls. Things like landscapes can be kept, and the rest can be removed and replaced with something else."
"That sounds like a big project," Irene shook her head. "What are you going to replace it with?"
"I haven't decided on that yet," Yu Sheng thought for a moment, "but after all, the overall style of this place is like this. Under the premise that the major structure cannot be changed, it doesn't look good to have bare patches on the walls. There still needs to be something on them. I plan to use my artistic talent when the time comes..."
Before he could finish, Irene spoke quickly: "Why not leave it empty."
Yu Sheng: "...I mean I will show my ability when the time comes..."
“It’s nice to be empty!”
Yu Sheng: “…”
He decided not to argue with the puppet. He would secretly use his outstanding artistic creativity to carefully polish the interior design of the spacecraft and then surprise everyone - or at least scare them.
Afterwards, the group passed through many cabins and corridors and entered the core area of the "tower" through the elevator.
Yu Sheng would occasionally introduce the functions of certain cabins - these were all situations he had mastered based on his "understanding of his own body". Although he could not answer many overly professional questions, he was still able to make a very accurate judgment on the general structure of the spacecraft.
He walked and stopped along the way, introducing things everywhere, until he entered a special room, and then his expression became a little serious.
This is a large cabin with warm yellow lights. An exceptionally bright light shines down from the roof, illuminating the large device in the center of the room. Many pipes and cables converge above the device and are connected to the base of the device. In the center of the base, there is a dark "iron coffin" quietly placed at a 45° angle.
The iron coffin still hummed softly.
The bodies of the cultists who had fallen in this room had been "cleaned up" by Yu Sheng, but there was still a faint smell of blood floating in the room. Little Red Riding Hood and Hu Li sniffed as soon as they came in, obviously having noticed something.
Irene noticed the change in Yu Sheng's expression.
"What is this place... used for?" the little doll asked curiously.
Yu Sheng came to the platform where the "holy coffin" was parked and slowly said, "This is the 'holy coffin' of the artificial saint girl - the artificial saint girl is inside it now."
Irene was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, "Ah? That C-shaped buckle?! Why did you keep it? Didn't you say you were going to give it to the Secret Service?"
Yu Sheng was not surprised by the little doll's reaction.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He took Irene off his shoulders, held her with one hand, and reached forward with the other, gently stroking the cold iron coffin.
"Do you want to hear the truth about the 'artificial saint'?" He turned around and said to the people beside him.
That was why he had brought the others to this cabin.
Hu Li blinked his eyes: "The truth about the artificial saint... Benefactor, what have you found out?"
Ailin gradually reacted after seeing Yu Sheng's attitude: "Wait a minute! You, don't tell me that this C-shaped buckle was originally a good puppet. In fact, it has always been controlled by the Hermitage. Let me tell you..."
"She is not a 'good doll'," Yu Sheng shook his head and interrupted Irene, "She was originally a person."
Irene froze there for a moment, unable to move as if her joints were stuck.
"And those 'bronze knights' were originally human beings," Yu Sheng continued calmly, "and they always thought they were human beings - even until they 'died in battle'."
Irene: “…What the hell?”
Yu Sheng turned around and sat down directly on the platform of the base of the holy coffin. He looked at the place where he had his last battle with the artificial saint, and slowly sorted out his thoughts.
"These 'weapons' made by the monastic order are transformed from living people. Some of them still retain a small amount of biomass, while others have their souls extracted and then injected into the machine shell...
“I discovered this during the last battle with the ‘Artificial Saint’—her body was filled with a mixture of blood and engine oil, and her body still contained human memories and soul.
"She came from a place with big wheat fields..."
Yu Sheng sorted out his memories and slowly spoke out the distant memory that he had seen.
The humming sound of various devices in the room accompanied his words, and the low vibration of the holy coffin never stopped.
The squirrel jumped off the hunter at some point. She stood on the holy coffin platform, staring blankly at the cold iron coffin. The hunter stood beside her without saying a word. There was only empty darkness under his hood, but it seemed that a fierce anger was brewing.
Little Red Riding Hood and Foxy also looked very bad.
"F*ck...what the hell is going on?" Irene finally broke the silence, her scarlet eyes flashing with an ominous glimmer. She cursed very badly, "Those bastards from the Priory are %...￥%*&...If they have the ability, they can do it themselves. If they have the ability, they can transform themselves. They can't fool enough cannon fodder and they resort to this trick. I'm really @#￥them..."
"That's the situation," Yu Sheng exhaled slowly, "The so-called 'sage' ran away at the last minute, but I sent all the cultists on the ship who were still alive to the Secret Service. Now it all depends on when we can pry open their mouths and find out where their lair is...even if it's just one of the planets.
"As for the sage who escaped, although I can't track him down now, he fought with me for a long time, and I also managed to leave some 'marks' on him. I will find him when 'fate' arrives... Anyway, I must kill him."
