Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1897: Chapter 1901: Sudden Upheaval

The Master was silent for a long time, deep in thought, before responding to Number Two’s suggestion.

After contemplating for a while, the Master made a decision: ”Send Number Five to probe, it should be fake!”

”Fake?!” Number Two was initially shocked upon hearing the Master’s words, then puzzled: ”Then should we still probe the fake?”

”Just test Lin Feng’s fallback plan, go do it!”

The Master waved his hand and said.

After the last setback, he had regained an absolute state of calm.

He was the ruler here, he was the eminent presence; once he entered the fray himself, he fell into a disadvantage!

...

Meanwhile, in the Spirit Realm, Lin Feng waited for another ten days, still finding no sign of anyone acting abnormally, leaving Lin Feng feeling unsettled!

Not seeing Lu Xiaobu come online during this time, he had actually confirmed that Lu Xiaobu had definitely launched a blitzkrieg.

However, at the same time, he knew that Lu Xiaobu, despite stripping the system, had gained abilities unknown to him, which alerted him.

”It seems the pace needs to be quickened!”

Lin Feng squinted his eyes, a hint of ruthlessness flashing across them.

After saying this, he turned to log offline.

This left the Silver Fox, who had been following him, utterly baffled.

What pace needs to be quickened?!

Almost a month had passed, wasn’t this guy just squatting here without any movement?!

He was about to go crazy from impatience.

Obviously, those Mahayana beings here were increasingly distancing themselves from the chaotic era, gradually establishing various rules.

If no action was taken at this time, it would be truly troublesome!

...

Now onto Lu Xiaobu.

After conquering Sword Island, did Lu Xiaobu stay in reality for a long time?

Of course not.

He naturally knew the timing to appear in the Spirit Realm that would best obscure Lin Feng’s investigations and maximize his own benefits!

But just as he prepared to log on from Gourd Island, something suddenly caught his attention!

That was!

He suddenly discovered that the control of the core, which was incredibly difficult to seize, almost zero in possibility, had actually loosened!

This startled Lu Xiaobu!

The constraints on core control had loosened?!

Does this mean he can acquire greater core control?

How is this possible?!

He hadn’t conquered any territory in the Spirit Realm, nor did he touch the core when he seized Sword Island!

Having done nothing, why would the constraints on core control loosen?

This not only failed to excite Lu Xiaobu but rather made him feel an inexplicable sense of crisis!

The first person he thought of was—Bu Bai!

No activity in reality, it must be the disturbance in the Spirit Realm!

However, those capable of stirring things up in the Spirit Realm, besides him, were only Bu Bai!

Without hesitation, Lu Xiaobu immediately found the still-sitting Xiao Jia.

Since Bu Bai departed from the Knight robot’s body to the Spirit Realm, Bu Bai remained seated in one spot.

Lu Xiaobu had visited him a few times, but Xiao Jia showed no response.

Lu Xiaobu could tell, because of Bu Bai’s departure, Xiao Jia became a bridge of communication between Bu Bai and Energy, similar to him needing to spread Domain on Sword Island, with no heart to do anything else.

What he was doing, in fact, was the same as what Lu Xiaobu’s body was doing after his consciousness left.

However, Lu Xiaobu had already controlled part of the core; though very minor, it was enough for the transmission of this Energy.

Yet Xiao Jia and Bu Bai were different; they were stripped from Lu Xiaobu’s body and had become their own system.

All the energy’s operation required Xiao Jia’s own body, his World Tree Seed, to support, which led him to lose heart for other matters!

Therefore, later on, Lu Xiaobu only assigned people to protect him without intervening further.

After all, in all the unknown circumstances, remaining unchanged to respond to change was best, considering the last time he saw Bu Bai, Bu Bai was still looking relaxed!

But this time, he had to come find Xiao Jia.

Xiao Jia was still seated in that manner, with a gleam in his eyes, yet evidently unable to exert any effort to speak.

”Alright, Xiao Jia, you don’t need to say much.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand: ”You continue sitting; there’s something I must attempt!”

”Mm!” Xiao Jia squeezed out an effortful syllable and then closed his eyes again, continuing to maintain the energy transmission!

Lu Xiaobu placed his hand on Xiao Jia’s body and began logging in again.

He felt that this time something different was likely to happen!

Bu Bai, you better not stir up any major trouble; whether I control the core is a minor matter, but if you’re discovered by the Master, you’re done for!

Indeed!

As Lu Xiaobu anticipated, something different happened!

Initially, when Lu Xiaobu logged in, only one light path merged with his consciousness, but this time, due to his contact with Xiao Jia, another light path appeared.

The new light path was very dim, even against the main light path, it seemed indistinct.

Yet Lu Xiaobu still noticed it.

Without hesitation, Lu Xiaobu opted for the smaller light path over the main one.

He decided that if any danger arose, he would immediately bring Bu Bai back!

...

Lu Xiaobu’s consciousness traveled along the smaller light path.

Soon, he reached the end.

Instinctively, he squinted his eyes, recalling the bright glare from his first venture into the Spirit Realm.

However, the anticipated blinding light did not appear; instead, he encountered a very dim atmosphere.

This made Lu Xiaobu alert.

Then, he immediately started scanning the environment he was in!

Small, dark, with something resembling iron bars before him!

A cell?!

Lu Xiaobu instinctively thought of this word!

But then he furrowed his brow.

No, that’s not right!

It’s too small here!

The space was almost just enough for one person to stand upright!

Cells have beds; there’s nothing here!

If this was meant to imprison people, those inside wouldn’t wait for execution; they’d just stand here until they died from exhaustion!

Having examined his surroundings, Lu Xiaobu instinctively thought to step outside this small space.

Because this small space was simply too uncomfortable!

However, as his hand reached toward the cell’s iron bars, a shadow suddenly flashed in from outside, entering the already cramped space.

Then, Lu Xiaobu heard the intruder speak with a disdainful laugh: ”Hehe, wonder how many this remodeled virus will kill this time?! Hehe! Experimenting on a bunch of living corpses is not considered particularly wicked, right!”

Lu Xiaobu, listening to the voice and looking at the figure, froze for a moment—this was Bu Bai?!
