Chapter 4472: 5.0224 Testing
"I don't know why, but a mental imprint was carved onto the forehead of every single mechanical puppet."
"And then they became like that. Little Senior Sister, you, you didn't happen to run into them when you arrived, did you? They're usually very well-behaved; they probably got too excited seeing you, otherwise they wouldn't court death in front of you..." The word "death" came out lower and lower from the plump ball's lips. Seeing his Little Senior Sister's poker face, he felt even more uncertain.
Was Little Senior Sister happy or angry with that small expression?
"How many!" Grand Master Qiao Qiao snapped at Tianzuzi in annoyance.
"O-one hundred, one hundred and twenty-three," Tianzuzi shrunk his neck, in a posture of admitting fault. "Little, Little Senior Sister, if you, if you don't like them, then, then just melt them all down."
Tianzuzi's expression was almost tearful as he said this.
All these years, guarding the Tianji Secret Realm alone had been so hard and lonely. Ever since he had this group of lively Little Senior Sisters, his life had become much more colorful.
Although the Little Senior Sisters often "went out" to cause trouble, not staying put and guarding Master's tomb, but wandering aimlessly throughout the secret realm.
They also always liked to ransack the treasures Master hid everywhere and stash them in their own little personal stashes, forcing him to move those things back to Master's tomb every now and then!
However, their vibrant and lively appearance was just so delightful to see.
"Little Senior Sister, they're just a bit lively, but they're actually quite capable of working!" Tianzuzi quickly said. "If you find them noisy, then, then just put them in a spatial refining artifact. Th-this way, they won't be noisy."
Qiao Mu glanced at him, then suddenly sent out a purple charm.
The charm's light flowed, and the purple charm cut through the air, heading straight for the plump ball's face.
Tianzuzi looked bewildered and pitiful, but his considerable bulk moved quickly. Just as he was about to dodge, Qiao Mu had already recalled the shimmering purple charm.
"You don't know charm arts?"
Tianzuzi pitifully cried out, "Little Senior Sister, our Master isn't a charm master, so where would we get charm arts?!"
Qiao Mu nodded with a faint expression.
Just now, she had suddenly struck out with an offensive purple charm. If the opponent were a charm master, they would instinctively use a defensive charm to block it. This is a subconscious, instinctive reaction during a charm master's battle.
Under such a fast-paced combat situation, Senior Brother Plump Ball would have had no time to react and would have made his most instinctive defensive move.
However, the opponent didn't, merely dodging swiftly.
Indeed, one shouldn't randomly suspect people, Qiao Mu thought to herself. This Plump Ball Senior Brother seems sincere enough; he likely isn't the charm master who previously attacked everyone.
"Sorry," the little poker-face tested quickly, and apologized quickly. "I discovered the presence of a charm master in the secret realm earlier; do you know anything about it?"
Tianzuzi was somewhat startled, then shook his head, and then nodded. "Senior Sister, although I don't know the origin of this charm master, as long as they are still in this secret realm, I have a way to search them out."
Upon hearing this, the little poker-face's eyes slightly brightened. "How do you search?"
"Master's tomb's main control room can see all the situations throughout this entire secret realm. Senior Sister, would you like to go now?"
"Good!" Qiao Mu nodded. "They want to come with me."
"Naturally, naturally." This plump ball was very quick-witted and nodded repeatedly.
Although he had lived in seclusion for many years, he still understood some human nature and social customs.
