Chapter 71: Cole returns to the rainforest, and Chen Bo moves into Farusan's house.
"Anil, could you perhaps provide the schematics for this thing later—"
"No problem, teacher." Chen Bo readily agreed. He had originally planned to apply it on a large scale in the rainforest anyway: "However, explaining the basic principles is still a bit complicated. I will write a paper to publish later."
Next to them, Farusan and Cole also came in.
Just now outside, the two of them witnessed the red and black mist shrinking back at a speed visible to the naked eye. Especially Cole, who had seen Tinari clear the dead zone before, but had never seen anything like this before.
Tinari explained, "Thanks to these two mechs, the energy purification device at the center of the mechs can separate the power of the Dead Zone and condense it into a core that looks very stable."

"With this device, ordinary people without the Eye of God will also have the possibility of clearing the dead zone."
After listening, Farusan rested her chin on her hand and said, "Using the centrifugal principle to separate energy—this idea was also proposed by someone in the Order of the Church a hundred years ago, but it seems that no one has been able to develop any practical results. Anil, you little rascal, you always manage to surprise your predecessors."
She looked at Chen Bo, her eyes full of admiration.
What a fine disciple! I've struck gold.
"Now that the crisis is over, we should head back." Chen Bo glanced at the sky. "Teacher Tinari, I'll leave the cleanup to you."
"I'm not going back," Cole suddenly said, her voice soft but her tone firm.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Clutching the hem of her clothes, Ke Lai glanced at Tinali, then at Chen Bo, and said, "I'll stay in the rainforest to help Master clear the dead zone."
"I can fly very fast, and I can be of great help to my master when he patrols the forest."
In the past, she was in poor health and could only stay far away from the Dead Zone, watching her master and companions adventure.
Now that she has this armor and a weapon that can suppress the dead zone, she no longer wants to be the one being protected.
Tina was somewhat surprised, but then nodded with relief: "That's good. The rainforest has indeed been quite turbulent lately. I feel more at ease having you by my side."
"Um—" Farusan interjected, "Coley, you don't actually need to live in the rainforest. With this armor, it only takes three minutes to fly back to Sumeru City from Huacheng."
"Wouldn't it be nice to sleep at your senior's house tonight? There's a soft bed there, and I can even teach you to read and write."
Farusan genuinely adores Cole, this sensible and hardworking child, and wishes she could take her home and raise her as her granddaughter. On the one hand, the two of them have been living together for a while now, and Farusan has gotten used to it. Without one person, she feels like something is missing.
Ke Lai blushed and waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no need, senior! I'm used to living in Huacheng Guo, and besides—and flying around takes a lot of energy—"
Actually, Cole felt a bit of pressure in front of Farussan.
"That little bit of energy is nothing. You have the Eye of God of Grass, so you don't need any extra energy." Farusan was still trying to take Cole back. "Besides, the rainforest is too humid; it's not as comfortable as the city."
Chen Bo, listening from the side, found it amusing and casually joked, "Senior, since your bed is so soft that Ke Lai can't stay there, why don't I move in?"
The air suddenly went silent for a second.
Cole's eyes widened. Was she really going to live with her senior?
Tina raised an eyebrow, somewhat shocked.
Chen Bo was just joking. He thought that Faroshan would, as usual, put on airs and scold him for being "disrespectful." But Faroshan actually nodded and immediately agreed.
"Okay."
"Anyway, I have plenty of empty rooms at home. You can stay here, and we can study the blueprints together at night. I'm very interested in your energy purification device. You didn't ask me when you designed it."
"ha?"
Chen Bo's smile froze.
No, senior, you're not following the usual rules?
I was just saying.
If you do that, your favorability rating will increase very quickly.
Besides, I live with Nasida.
Chen Bo did not want to expose Nasita's secret.
If I stay at Farusan's house, I won't be able to discuss things with Nasita.
Thinking of this, Chen Bo quickly waved his hand in refusal: "No, no, no, senior, I was just joking!"
"I'm used to where I live. There's no place like home. Besides, my place is full of parts and blueprints, it's a complete mess, like a pigsty. Moving there would be too much trouble, too much trouble!"
"What's wrong with a mess? I'll clean it up for you." Farussan seemed intrigued and took a step forward. "What, you look down on my house?"
"No, no! Absolutely not!" Chen Bo said, wiping sweat as he backed away. "It's mainly because I snore and grind my teeth when I sleep! I was afraid of disturbing your rest, senior! Yes, my teeth grinding is really loud, like chewing steel bars!"
"Pfft." Cole couldn't help but laugh out loud.
A window popped up in Chen Bo's virtual space: "Are you worried about me? I also really hope you can stay at Farusan's house, so I can observe humans up close."
"We can still communicate normally even when we're in a dream, right?"
Oh, Nasita actually wants to observe how humans interact.
You really know how to enjoy gossip!
Farusian persisted: "No, one of you has to move over here."
Chen Bo scratched his head: "How about this, Ke Lai and I take turns staying there?"
After saying that, Chen Bo gave Ke Lai a look.
Although she didn't know if Cole understood, she agreed: "Okay, Anil and I will take turns staying there."
Farusan smiled with satisfaction: "That's more like it. It's been a long time since I've seen Cole and Tinari. Cole will stay in the rainforest tonight, and Anil will come home with me."
Chen Bo nodded: "Okay, Senior Farusan."
Chen Bo's watchmaking machine was still short of materials. Looking at the happy-looking Flossan, he thought to himself, "Isn't she a great helper?"
He immediately suggested, "Um—senior, since we've already come to the rainforest, just flying around a couple of times isn't very interesting."
"How about we find a place to practice our combat skills?"
"How about clearing out the guards from this area of ruins?"
Chen Bo is currently lacking materials.
Extremely scarce.
In the early stages, find readily available, free, high-quality materials, such as Relic Guardians.
Later on, you still have to mine.
Fortunately, the enterprise-level printer cannot operate 24/7 yet, and the required materials are not excessive. The main reason is that Chen Bo does not allow the enterprise-level printer to leave his sight.
It must be guaranteed that data can be collected into the system at any time.
I would be heartbroken if the printer were damaged.
After Nasita fully regained her power and took control of Sumeru, Chen Bo could basically leave the printer in Sumeru with peace of mind, allowing it to operate around the clock.
