Xiang Shan faced the Holy Lord for the first time.
Before this, even if Xiang Shan promised, "I absolutely won't use Inner Strength," the Holy Lord was trying his utmost to avoid direct eye contact. He constantly switched between sensory inputs from the outside world, frequently turning various detection functions on and off to evade Inner Strength attacks.
Now, the two were truly face-to-face in the real sense.
"Oh, so this is how it feels," the Holy Lord mused. "Looking at one's own foolishness, it turns out this is the feeling. This string of code is worth remembering."
Then, Xiang Shan's Prosthetic Eye flashed, and the Holy Lord fell silent.
Xiang Shan continued walking toward the middle section of the submarine.
"Fervor" walked beside him and asked, "Are you really going to absorb this thing? Messing up your brain... oh, right, messing up your mind is not good."
