Romance Game: Embrace of the Inhuman

Chapter 104 Gongsun Yue's Doubts_2


Now it was finally his turn to experience it himself.

Time passed by second by second, and soon a minute had disappeared.

Almost instantly, as the clock struck seven, Lin Qianxuan felt a huge surge of Divine Energy bursting from the Alternate Space that connected to his Purple Mansion.

This Divine Energy was incredibly pure and devoid of any attribute. As it appeared in the Purple Mansion, it naturally began to infuse itself with Lin Qianxuan's unique attribute.

Another noteworthy point was that Lin Qianxuan discovered that their degree of purity seemed to match the Divine Energy he extracted himself.

In other words, as Lin Qianxuan's Primordial Spirit strength increased, the purity of this Divine Energy would also increase accordingly.

The moment passed swiftly. Before Lin Qianxuan could fully sense the situation in that space, the surge of Divine Energy had already ended.

It lasted less than a second altogether.

Truly, the speed was absurdly fast.

Yet, in that brief moment of under a second, Lin Qianxuan gained Divine Energy equivalent to what he would achieve through over five months of arduous cultivation.

This talent was indeed defying the heavens, no wonder Gongsun Ying possessed such powerful cultivation at a young age.

Knock knock knock~!

The sound of knocking at the door was accompanied by Gongsun Yue's voice.

"Young Master, are you awake? I've prepared breakfast and hot water for you."

"I'm awake, I'll be right there."

Lin Qianxuan quickly went to the door and opened it, seeing standing there was Gongsun Yue holding the hot water and breakfast.

Honestly, in the game, she didn't personally serve him like a maid; she would usually send someone to deliver meals.

Now Lin Qianxuan felt a bit incredulous.

"Miss Yue, you're too kind. Just have someone call me and there's no need to deliver it yourself." Lin Qianxuan said.

"Young Master is new here, I was worried you might not rest well, so I came personally," Gongsun Yue said.

After all, it was a lifesaving favor, and Lin Qianxuan had skipped over many details when playing the game, so he took it lightly, but in reality, things were quite different.

Gongsun Yue was very attentive about this, afraid that inadequate hospitality might make Lin Qianxuan, the guest, feel wronged.

"I've also been through hard times before, I'm not as pampered as you think, and I'm resting well here." Lin Qianxuan smiled and said, "So after this, you don't need to trouble yourself, Miss Yue. You've got so much going on, don't let me delay you."

"If that's the case, then I feel relieved." Gongsun Yue smiled and said.

After a brief conversation, Lin Qianxuan looked at the wooden basin filled with hot water, he gestured, and the hot water splashed onto his face, then returned to the basin.

He actually didn't need to wash up to easily keep his body clean.

The method of metabolism was different, and he could easily control the water flow to wash away the grime off his body.

Even if he didn't bathe for a hundred days, he could be as clean as if he just stepped out of a dust-free room.

However, since Gongsun Yue had personally brought the hot water, it wouldn't be right not to use it, so he casually freshened up a bit.

"Young Master's Divine Power is truly remarkable," Gongsun Yue praised.

"It's not anything special, far less mystical than your Divine Machine," Lin Qianxuan humbly replied.

Then he picked up the bowl and chopsticks Gongsun Yue brought, ready to eat his breakfast.

Even though it was breakfast, Gongsun Yue still tried to prepare it as bountifully as possible for Lin Qianxuan.

There were two small vegetable dishes, and a big bowl of meat porridge.

Lin Qianxuan found water more filling, but it wouldn't do to spoil the mood at this moment.

So he ate leisurely, praising Gongsun Yue's cooking skills while eating.

Actually, it didn't count as any culinary skill, there weren't many seasonings, and the side dishes were sparse, Gongsun Yue just tried to cook as meticulously as she could.

"Miss Yue, have you eaten?" Lin Qianxuan asked Gongsun Yue beside him.

"I already ate while cooking, Young Master need not worry about me," Gongsun Yue replied.

"That's good. Otherwise, I'd feel bad eating with you watching on an empty stomach." Lin Qianxuan smiled and said.

Soon, Lin Qianxuan finished his breakfast.

As Gongsun Yue prepared to leave after tidying up, Lin Qianxuan asked, "Miss Yue, is there anything I can help with? I'm used to being busy, and I feel uneasy eating and staying here for free, so let me contribute in some way!"

"Young Master, you've saved our lives, how can this be called free?" Gongsun Yue said.

"I'm just not used to idling, wanting to do some work." Lin Qianxuan replied.

"Well... In that case, Young Master, how about you come with me to the workshop?" Gongsun Yue hesitated for a moment and said.

"Alright, it's settled then." Lin Qianxuan agreed directly without asking what he would be doing.

Gongsun Yue felt it was strange, not just offering help willingly, but Lin Qianxuan's manner seemed as if he feared she might change her mind.

She shook her head slightly, gathered her things, and turned to leave the room, with Lin Qianxuan rising and following her closely.

While walking, Gongsun Yue explained to Lin Qianxuan what she planned to do later.

"The current work in the workshop mainly involves repairing Divine Machines. The weapons were damaged to varying degrees from battling with the Tainted Spirits, and now they all need maintenance and repair. Since Young Master doesn't know Divine Machine Art, you can help me move things later....." Gongsun Yue said.

"I'm not good at other tasks, but I'm quite capable of transporting goods." Lin Qianxuan replied.

Shortly after, Gongsun Yue sent Lin Qianxuan's used tableware to the kitchen and went with Lin Qianxuan to the workshop.

In the workshop, several old men were already working.

By the old men's side were young assistants, but upon seeing Gongsun Yue, they instinctively avoided her a bit, showing no sign of respect.

Lin Qianxuan initially didn't understand this when he first played, but now he had some idea.

The Tainted Catastrophe brought by the Tainted Spirit was a major taboo, and Gongsun Yue's tentacle eye was the most direct manifestation of Tainted Spirit Transformation, disturbing anyone who saw it, akin to seeing a person bitten and already turning into a zombie.

Who wouldn't be afraid?

When faced with a person infected with a flu, you'd stand far away at a cough, let alone this.

The fact that they could work with Gongsun Yue without gossiping or actively showing exclusion meant Gongsun Ying's reputation was high enough.

Gongsun Yue was accustomed to their unusual behavior.

Soon Lin Qianxuan and Gongsun Yue arrived at her workstation, and began working.

"Young Master, could you bring me the component over there marked with [Seven]...."

Lin Qianxuan raised his hand, and water in the air lifted the Divine Machine component and brought it in front of them.

This scene caught the gaze of those old men momentarily, but they just glanced and resumed their work.

"Young Master's Divine Power is indeed remarkable." Gongsun Yue sighed.

She was somewhat envious, after all, compared to her own Tainted Transformation, Lin Qianxuan possessed not only powerful abilities, but remained unaltered and human-like, just like her sister.

Lin Qianxuan roughly knew what Gongsun Yue was thinking, but he couldn't offer comfort on this matter, so he simply responded modestly and continued helping with the work.

Gongsun Yue's Divine Machine Art skills were very refined, her actions smooth and pleasing to watch.

Each task accomplished with minimal Divine Energy expenditure.

After watching for a while, Lin Qianxuan took a broken short knife and attempted to mend it.

This repair required the use of the Adhesive Technique.

Employing Spirit, injecting Divine Energy, perceiving the nature of the Divine Machine, gradually bonding the two.

Red Divine Energy light flashed in Lin Qianxuan's hand once, then the short knife in his hand was fully restored, as if it had never been broken.

His face showed delight, as he turned back to see Gongsun Yue looking at him with an expression of surprise and uncertainty.

"Young Master, you also know Divine Machine Art?" Gongsun Yue asked.

"Just learned it, not very skilled." Lin Qianxuan answered vaguely.

Apparently, Gongsun Yue wanted to ask not about this. She was more curious about how Lin Qianxuan could have Divine Energy and how he had mastered Divine Machine Art shortly after arriving in their world.

And although his movements were a bit unpolished, the outcome was successful. If he really had just learned it, that talent was exceedingly high.

Nonetheless, noticing Lin Qianxuan wasn't inclined to explain, she temporarily shelved her doubts and refrained from further questioning, instead pointing towards the damaged Divine Machine Weapons nearby: "Since Young Master can also do it, please use Adhesive Technique to mend these as well."
