Chapter 668 - 481: Fourth Contract Complete (Part 2)
The more accurate the entries, the more they might go awry when the time comes.
Don’t just look at the big shell + green + slow; what if it summons a snail, a conch, or an oyster instead of a turtle?
So Talisman No.1, PASS.
"This No.2... is a bit too miserable."
"Will it summon a mummy, or some summons beast in a wheelchair?"
At this time, Wu Guinan turned to criticize Talisman No.2 again.
"Have you considered that maybe it will directly summon a wheelchair?"
Li Pu was even more pessimistic.
Summons beasts of the energy-draining type need to attack to restore energy.
Now with the whole [blind] + [deaf] + [poor mobility], how can it restore energy then?
Without energy, how can it provide support?
So Talisman No.2, PASS.
As for Talisman No.3, it’s almost the same logic.
A summons beast of the steadfast type, afraid of pain, timid, and prone to death.
Where does the energy for support even come from? It would just hide behind you.
"Why do I feel like Talisman No.4 is describing some wanted criminal."
Wu Guinan then turned his attention to No.4.
"Let’s just skip this one."
Li Pu didn’t even bother to comment, just directly PASS.
The beast summoned by this talisman is simply beyond human control.
"I even doubt if there’s a beast that matches this talisman."
"There can’t be a summons beast that bad, right?"
"What if it actually summons an alien wanted criminal?"
"Was the person who made this talisman brain-damaged?"
Wu Guinan, in reverse deduction, felt even more ridiculous.
"Looking at it this way, it seems only No.1 and No.5 are relatively reliable."
"Why not choose No.1 and join my Turtle faction?"
"Or maybe lying isn’t such a terrible negative entry; just don’t believe it."
Finally, he offered his suggestion.
"The Turtle faction... let’s forget about it."
Li Pu shook his head.
The reason he didn’t initially reject Wu Guinan’s approach was a sense of familiarity.
Because his grandfather’s summoning beast was also a big turtle.
Familiarity is fine, but joining himself is impossible.
"No.5... that’s actually acceptable."
Wu Guinan’s words felt somewhat reasonable.
"It’s just that..."
Li Pu sighed helplessly.
He never thought he’d be caught off guard.
It turns out that Little Ugly Wolf is in charge of the bodily functions in the eating-drinking-pooing-peeing combo.
Is the ’撒’ referring to peeing or lying then...?
"A bit of a stretch, but not unacceptable."
Finally, he made up his mind.
Once decided, he didn’t say much, and soon Li Pu got that Level 5 Talisman.
Bringing Wu Guinan along was meaningful; he soon dialed Xiu Lijia’s phone number.
Because they’d already agreed in advance, the Mechanical Summoning Circle over there was already waiting.
Soon, the two arrived at the Mechanical Department.
And under Xiu Lijia’s leadership, they arrived at the location of the Mechanical Summoning Circle.
Gan Wenlun had been waiting there for a long time.
"This is the legendary Mechanical Summoning Circle..."
It was Wu Guinan’s first time seeing this place, marveling as he surveyed.
The summoning circle’s area wasn’t large, but its appearance was worlds apart from conventional summoning circles.
Composed of multiple seemingly incredibly sophisticated instruments, four slightly curved mechanical pillar columns arranged equidistantly in a ring.
In some of the exposed line pipes, the blue energy could be seen moving rhythmically.
The Five-Star Array formed by the line pipes had already begun to emit a faint glow.
"Senior, I’m here."
Though it was Li Pu’s first time witnessing it, he was more concerned about the summons to follow.
"Alright, let’s begin."
Gan Wenlun smiled and nodded, then went to the control panel and swiped his student card.
Then, with a flurry of operations: "I’ve deposited all my points."
"I’ll make up the rest."
Xiu Lijia stepped up to swipe the card and inputted again.
As she pressed the confirm button, the light within the Five-Star Array began to accelerate.
Beep beep beep beep... Buzz!
When the moving light reached a certain speed, an intense burst of light erupted from the summoning platform.
The dazzling light was fleeting and soon returned to peace.
However, the brightness was now higher and more stable than before activating.
"OK, now you just need to go up and summon."
Gan Wenlun pointed to the platform.
"Alright."
Li Pu nodded heavily, feeling somewhat nervous and excited.
His fourth covenant was about to begin.
[Grass!]
Scarecrow: Summoner, go! Create a new little buddy for Ben Cao!
[Nom nom nom!]
Bubu: Wonder what flavor of head it will be this time.
[Growl, groingo growl!]
Ugly Little Wolf: I’m gonna pee all over the new guy!
The three summons beasts cheered for Li Pu in their own ways (?).
"What a harmonious scene; looks like they’re all excited for the new member."
Wu Guinan nodded, not understanding them anyway.
"..."
Conversely, Xiu Lijia had a slightly serious expression.
Though she’d agreed early on to give her points to Li Pu.
But when the day came, she realized it came too quickly!
As far as she knew, the top ten freshmen had just completed their third covenant recently.
