For three hours, Lin Luo had manufactured so many materials that even he couldn't keep count; regardless, he simply created whatever Super Lingyin requested, with quantities calculated in the trillions, and for some fuels used in larger volumes, the count was in the megatons... In the real world, the value of this would be beyond description, even for an astronomical figure.

And besides materials like steel and machinery, Super Lingyin specifically asked him to make fifty robots. They didn't require artificial intelligence; she only needed to be able to input operational commands, as she required these robots as her assistants.

Once the fifty robots were constructed, Super Lingyin immediately uploaded the command program she had long prepared into their cores. Then, the fifty robots began their work... Of course, their tasks were not complex, merely responsible for transporting materials and handling miscellaneous chores.

A little over ten minutes later, the fifty robots had moved all the required materials in front of Super Lingyin. She then activated the contract item, the "Super Assembly Empire," drawing the materials into the ring. The next instant, a Zaku-type Gundam, four to five meters tall, materialized before Lin Luo's eyes.

"It really is a Zaku!" Seeing that Super Lingyin had genuinely manufactured a Gundam, even Lin Luo couldn't help but feel surprised, and this Gundam was identical to the one in his memory. Not only that, but immediately afterward, nine more Zakus tumbled out of the ring, lining up neatly as if standing at attention like soldiers.

Witnessing this scene, Lin Luo couldn't help but sigh... The previous methods of manufacturing Gundams were absolutely pathetic!

Super Lingyin's "Super Assembly Empire" was truly a bug; with this item, as long as her scientific knowledge was solid and materials were abundant, she could manufacture anything instantaneously... Assembly lines? Armories? Those things had no place existing anymore!

"Now, let's test the power of these Gundams," Super Lingyin appeared utterly excited, completely ignoring Lin Luo standing to the side. She vanished from the room, reappearing moments later, this time with ten maidservants accompanying her... Lin Luo had already given her control of this floor, naturally including the usage methods for this space.

"Come on, all of you get inside now, and then engage in combat against each other. In my design, the defense of the cockpit far exceeds the offensive power, so don't hold back. Give it your all and blow up the enemy in front of you!" Super Lingyin eagerly instructed the maidservants. Under her command, the ten maidservants smoothly entered the Zakus, and then, with cannons blazing, they all entered combat mode.

Not long after, with a loud boom, one Gundam was blasted into dust amidst the gunfire. The cockpit fell heavily to the ground, completely undamaged save for being slightly blackened by smoke. After recovering that cockpit, Super Lingyin brought out another Gundam for the maidservant to pilot, sending her back into the fray. Meanwhile, Super Lingyin was rapidly typing away on a computer, seemingly recording data.

"Hmm... Still a few minor issues. The attack power of the left-hand weapon needs to be increased, and the balance needs adjustment too. Right, for close-combat weapons like the beam saber, should it be the portable type or the transforming type..."

Lin Luo watched the combat between the ten Zakus while listening to Super Lingyin's self-muttering. He knew there was nothing more for him to do here, so he decisively exited that world... With Super Lingyin's capabilities, he could look forward to the militarization of the Sky City.

Next, Lin Luo returned to the ground floor lobby, where dozens of maidservants were busily tidying up the furniture again, moving things around in a lively scene. Word had it that under the guidance of the three junior maid leaders, the furnishings in the lobby were to be changed every week to ensure a constantly fresh feeling for visitors.

Lin Luo found this arrangement rather tiresome, as did the other young ladies. However, since the maidservants were willing to do it, they couldn't stop them, and the maids seemed genuinely happy doing it.

On a sofa in the lobby, Lin Luo spotted Lei. Since returning from the Ediru Garden, Lei had become much more optimistic than before, her internal conflicts resolved, often displaying a smile on her face.

Sitting at the table opposite Lei was a tiny figure: Little Ber. The little one was stuffing food into her mouth while simultaneously talking to Lei... Being able to speak while eating without any awkwardness, her words coming out fast and clear—Lin Luo had no idea how Little Ber developed this skill. He certainly couldn't manage it; for him, it would result in either spitting out food or choking.

It was common knowledge that Lei and Little Ber had an exceptionally close relationship. Within the Sky City, the person who spent the longest time alone with Lei wasn't Lin Luo, but Little Ber. It had to be said that Little Ber's 'moe' attack held an extraordinary level of lethality against naturally naive personalities. Setting Lei aside, even Mokona was quite fond of her.

However, Mokona's method of affection was slightly "perverted"; she often hugged Little Ber close to rub her cheek, so Little Ber didn't much care for being with Mokona and would sometimes hide when she saw her. In contrast, Lei was much gentler. Apart from the occasional head pat, she never did anything excessive, and the two often clung together, appearing just like a pair of good friends.

Of course, in Lin Luo's view, their relationship was more like this: Lei treated Little Ber as a pet, and Little Ber saw Lei as her subject.

Watching the two chatting and laughing, Lin Luo couldn't help but walk over and nudge Lei with his foot. After all, since returning from the Ediru Garden, he hadn't spent much quality time alone with her, and in the previous plane, he had summoned away her best friend, Little Ber...

The two immediately noticed Lin Luo approaching. A flash of pleasant surprise sparked in Lei's eyes. She wasn't tsundere, nor was she as guarded as the Queen; her happiness and unhappiness were evident on her face, just not always intensely so. But unless one was the oblivious protagonist from a harem anime, judging whether she was happy or not was an easy task.

Compared to Lei's warmth, Little Ber appeared much cooler. She glanced up at Lin Luo, then lowered her head and stuffed another bun into her mouth... Incidentally, ten baskets of small steamed buns were placed next to her, nine of which were already empty.

"I saw something really strange just now..." As soon as he sat down on the sofa, Lei blinked her eyes and recounted her startling discovery to Lin Luo.

Lei's narration was vague, and Lin Luo's ability to vividly imagine things wasn't strong enough for an accurate visualization. However, a few keywords appeared in her words: rope, unclothed, cat-girl, airborne, tickling...

So, through Lin Luo's incomplete imagination, a picture formed in his mind: someone used a rope to tie an unclothed cat-girl in mid-air and proceeded to attack her with tickling... Damn it, even though he didn't know who the cat-girl or the 'someone' was, he was incredibly envious. Oh, no misunderstanding, he was only envious of the 'someone.'

But then again, engaging in BDSM games in his own Sky City—they were practically courting death! Why didn't they call him along for something like that... Uh, wait, how did this even happen... Right, where did the cat-girl come from?

Lin Luo once again cursed his pathetic brainpower. Although he wanted to ask Lei carefully exactly when and where this BDSM event occurred, the young lady didn't bring the matter up again, which left Lin Luo extremely frustrated. He couldn't very well ask her directly, could he?

"My experience points are down to twenty percent."

Just as Lin Luo was debating whether to ask, Little Ber, sitting at the table, finished the last steamed bun. She patted her slightly bulging stomach and declared to Lin Luo with infinite pride, "My experience points are down to twenty percent."

"Huh?" Lin Luo expressed his confusion. Although Little Ber's words were clear, he had only heard similar phrases when playing games like Poisoned Milk Powder in the past. "What experience points?"

"My skill experience points, of course," the little one retorted, rolling her eyes at him matter-of-factly.

"Are you addicted to the internet? Be careful, you might get electroshock therapy," Lin Luo criticized her without mercy.

"It's not like that at all, Hmph!" Little Ber let out an annoyed snort and began to explain herself.

Through her explanation, Lin Luo finally understood what was going on... In essence, Little Ber's abilities operated similarly to the leveling system in online games. With her current experience points, she could only use basic skills. She knew about the advanced skills, but she couldn't use them until she reached the required experience threshold.

"So, if you accumulate another twenty percent experience, you can use your advanced skills?"

"Naturally," Little Ber chirped smugly.

"Then what are your advanced skills?" Lin Luo couldn't help but ask, and even Lei looked at the little one curiously.

"They are my most, most invincible Aura skills." Upon mentioning this, Little Ber became even more spirited; even Long Aotian wouldn't be as proud. She counted on her fingers, "Idiot Aura, Moron Aura, Weakening Aura, Tsundere Aura, Excitement Aura... Hmm, the next tier I can unlock has these five Aura skills."

"...Um, could you say that again?" Lin Luo suspected he had misheard.

"Didn't I already say it clearly enough? Honestly," Little Ber gave Lin Luo a scornful look and repeated the five Aura skills.

Fine, he hadn't hallucinated.

This time Lin Luo was certain he hadn't misheard, but he felt an urge to spit out his food. Weakening Aura and Excitement Aura were somewhat normal; they were probably similar to a blessing spell, understandable. But what the heck was Tsundere Aura? And weren't Idiot Aura and Moron Aura the same thing? Was there no Stupid Aura?!

The "Airborne Overlord," a piece of equipment as buggy as it was, was already bizarre enough, and now there were these Aura skills. Damn it... Lin Luo didn't even know how to complain anymore.

"Little Ber, which Heroic Spirit are you from, exactly?" Lin Luo couldn't help but ask.

"The Hall of Valor, of course!"

No, he thought, you probably hail from the Otaku God Temple.

Chatting with Lei and Little Ber, although it wasn't as glamorous as being with Misaki or Evangeline, was warm and joyful. Lei's gentleness made Lin Luo feel as if he had returned to a distant home every time he spoke with her, filled with warmth and kinship. Therefore, when dealing with her, he generally kept his thoughts pure. Although he hadn't ruled out the idea that, given their current bond, pushing for intimacy wouldn't be an issue, he preferred to maintain this small piece of purity for now.

As for Little Ber, she was there for fun and cuteness; with her around, there was never a shortage of smiles and comebacks.

For the next while, Lin Luo sat on the sofa, chatting with the two about mundane, everyday topics. Though simple, he thoroughly enjoyed it. Happy times always passed quickly, and before long, he heard the maidservants calling—it was time for dinner again.

Everyone returned punctually, except for the three Bels in Dragon City and Super Lingyin, who was busy manufacturing Gundams. However, Lin Luo found it strange that Evangeline and Sakuya's complexions looked slightly off, as if they had just fought a decisive battle. Their faces were pale, their stances unsteady, looking as fragile as ordinary people.

"What's wrong with you two?"

When Lin Luo asked them, they both shot him fierce glares, their faces full of murderous intent, and roared in unison, "It's all your fault, you bastard!" After yelling, they glared at each other, turned away, and walked off.

"..." Facing the confused gazes of everyone else, Lin Luo spread his hands innocently, completely unable to understand.

Actually, Evangeline and Sakuya weren't entirely wrong in blaming him. The humiliation they suffered stemmed from the virtual space that could suppress their strength, and that damned virtual space was something Lin Luo had created. How could they blame anyone else?

At the dinner table, although Evangeline and Sakuya said nothing overtly, the undercurrent of tension between them was obvious even to the naturally simple Mokona. Everyone couldn't help but wonder what had happened to those two during the day?

Cat-girl? Binding? BDSM?

Lin Luo instantly recalled what Lei had told him earlier, but he quickly dismissed it. What kind of people were Evangeline and Sakuya? With their proud and lofty personalities, how could they possibly engage in BDSM games? Unless the heavens fell, the rivers ran dry, and the stars darkened, it would be absolutely impossible!

Even if one of them was willing to play the submissive role, the other would never consent to being the dominant one!

Just then, Lin Luo suddenly heard a massive boom from outside. Instinctively, he looked out, only to see... a black line drawn across the sky as if it had split open. A towering mountain peak suddenly collapsed, and black smoke obscured the faint moonlight above...

"..." Lin Luo was completely dumbfounded.

The girls were equally shocked, jumping up from their seats and rushing outside to watch.

A few minutes later, Super Lingyin appeared before them, scratching her head sheepishly. "Oops, my bad. I was testing my newly invented Demolition Nuke, and I didn't expect the destructive power to be this immense. Even I was startled, haha."

"..."

Lin Luo blinked... Forget it, time to eat!
