"Uncle, are you really in the Interstellar Corps?" Xue Dili asked doubtfully, looking at this uncle with a bit of a 'comedian' vibe.
He had just been chatting with the uncle for a long time, feeling like he was chatting with a character from Marvel.
After dealing with the old undead's madness and the great sage's wisdom, he felt he could befriend any Old Deng without a change in expression.
But he really couldn't get along with this comedian-like uncle.
"Of course, this is my one-star honor medal, representing that I have already handled the apocalypse of a civilization. Oh, by the way, not too long ago, I just sealed a newborn evil god, which counts as saving the world once again. As long as I report back to the base, it becomes two stars."
The uncle, his face covered in stubble, excitedly pointed to the seven-pointed star pattern on his chest,
"Young man, as long as you find a way to help me contact headquarters, I'll teach you the method to become stronger called 'Love Unlimited.' Look, look, this is my Treasure, the Beloved Holy Sword!"
In an instant, the uncle pulled out an ordinary broken sword, looking nothing like the 'Holy Sword' he described.
Xue Dili rubbed his temples, feeling a headache.
He wasn't good at handling overly familiar people.
And the uncle was still chattering non-stop: "Look, look, the Beloved Holy Sword! As long as there's love, this sword will burst with planet-slicing power."
Xue Dili immediately sat up, no longer feeling sleepy.
He took the broken sword from the uncle, but no matter how he wielded it, he couldn't unleash any power, no different from a fifty-buck item from a street stall.
"No, no, no, wielding this sword requires the power of love, like this." The uncle picked up the broken sword, and in the next moment, his expression changed. He was no longer exuding that comedian vibe and suddenly looked like a survivor in a post-apocalyptic world, full of hardship and determination.
In the next moment, a blinding light blade grew from the broken sword, shocking Xue Dili, afraid he might accidentally pierce through his own consciousness space.
"Alright, stop showing off," Xue Dili quickly stopped the uncle from trying to extend the sword further.
He felt that his compatibility with this Treasure was really poor, and he only thought of it as one of those weapons in anime that the male and female leads can use together, the male and female leads holding the Holy Sword from both sides, and the power of love bursting into an unparalleled blade of light.
Then, aiming at the main villain, they unleash a standard "Love Unlimited!"
Finally, looking at the villain's corpse, saying, "The reason for your failure is only one, because you don't understand love!"
He imagined for a moment, replacing the male lead in that scene with himself... holding the same sword with another woman...
Couldn't imagine it...
So yeah, Xue Dili really couldn't get along with this hotblooded, silly uncle who kept talking about "love."
"Young man, is there no one you want to protect for life?" The uncle looked at Xue Dili playfully, like a seagull hearing gossip.
"No..."
"You haven't been in a relationship since childhood?" The uncle was shocked, looking at Xue Dili.
"No, there were a lot of girls around me before, but I chased them away." Xue Dili said straightforwardly.
The uncle's eyes began to show sympathy, he couldn't imagine it, and finally, with a sigh, said, "Why not find a girlfriend..."
"No need, I'm meant to be a partner of justice, emotions are just a hindrance." Xue Dili rejected the uncle's silly talk without hesitation.
He always thought his silly talk was number one in the world, didn't expect there were masters out there.
"Uh..." The uncle seemed completely defeated, rolling back into the corner of the consciousness space, placing himself among the pile of Treasures.
Xue Dili didn't bother with this comedian uncle anymore.
In the midsummer, he opened the fridge and took out an orange-flavored soda he had forgotten for a long time.
The cicadas outside sang incessantly, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the time when he met the old undead.
Back then, he was still a clear-eyed future young man, now he had turned into a seasoned one.
Oh, right, the start of school!
He quickly opened his phone, seeing that the university registration time was August 24th.
Looking at today, it was already August 23rd.
Freshmen needed to attend military training, registering a week early.
Xue Dili's college entrance exam scores were ideal, while not first in the city, he was in the top ten, so he successfully got into a local prestigious Ke University.
Though not the topmost institution, it was still super first-class, mainly because it was close to home.
Ke University was 8 kilometers west of his home, his home was in the suburbs, unexpectedly, Ke University was in an even more suburban location.
This distance allowed him to go home to sleep after school without staying in the dormitory.
While preparing for school start arrangements, he looked into the consciousness space at the uncle.
He saw him take out a photo, Xue Dili couldn't see the photo, only that the uncle revealed a warm smile, that smile was very pure, as if seeing an old friend after many years.
He really had no hidden agenda, even purer than the old undead.
To put it bluntly, seemed a bit silly.
"Hey, uncle, if you're bored, want to see the stories of my world?" Xue Dili entered the consciousness space, handing his phone to the uncle.
"Stories of your world?" The uncle put away the photo, suspiciously took the phone, and after scrolling a bit, figured out how to use it.
Xue Dili thought since he was from an interstellar civilization, though he seemed a bit silly, he should be immune to such low-level technological products like a phone.
"Wow, this really is a very sophisticated magic-guided product!" The uncle sighed in amazement.
Xue Dili: "???"
No way, to your interstellar civilization, shouldn't a phone be a low-level information product?
Something seems off?
"Uh, isn't it normal for interstellar civilizations not to have such efficient magic-guided products? After all, teleportation gates are only tier three magic-guided, any small-town mage might figure it out, right? As long as there are enough tier three mages, it should be normal to communicate with other civilizations?" The uncle couldn't understand why Xue Dili was puzzled,
"On the contrary, your magic-guided product, uses thunder element, right? Combining gold, earth, and thunder elements to create this artifact, with such a strong information transmission capability, can I take it apart?"
"Wait... Wait... Let me gather my thoughts..." Xue Dili suddenly had a very shocking and terrifying thought.
"Are you saying, as long as you can use a tier three teleportation gate, you could communicate with other civilizations?" Xue Dili continued to ask.
His breathing became rapid, his pupils filled with shock, confusion, bewilderment, and incomprehension.
"Of course, isn't it?" The uncle replied.
"So you're saying, many feudal lords, even slave civilizations, as long as they know teleportation gates, can become interstellar civilizations?" Xue Dili asked again, shocked.
"Yeah, isn't that common sense? You call this a 'phone,' right? This magic-guided product's value is much higher than planetary transmission, by the way, can I take it apart?"
"No!"
