Chapter 1258 Repairing the Substitute Item
Chapter 1258 Repairing the Substitute Item
Although Sun Wukong said he couldn't guarantee a 100% repair, and that even if the item was repaired, its power would only be 80% of its original strength.
But compared to trying your luck to get a similar substitute item, or spending a lot of points to buy a one-time substitute item.
Clearly, Sun Wukong's suggestion was more advantageous.
Even if he had to provide the repair materials himself, it didn't matter; he was already satisfied enough to repair the props.
"You didn't do this on purpose, did you?" Lou Yishen asked, not wanting to be bothered.
Sun Wukong was calculating what materials he might need when he suddenly heard Lou Yishen's words and inexplicably looked away, feeling a little guilty.
"No, not at all, I was just curious..."
That's just what happened.
Moreover, these kinds of opportunities are rare and once they're gone, so Sun Wukong naturally chose the option that benefited his side first!
Is there a problem with this? There's absolutely no problem!
"So where are you now? Shall I come find you directly?" Lou Yishen said proactively.
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's lips twitched. It seemed this guy was quite impatient!
However, he didn't mention that he had returned to his hometown of Honghuang, but only gave his address in the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
He wasn't exactly lying, since he had set up a shortcut at the Heavenly Dao Alliance's residence for convenience.
It was just a cover-up at the time, but I never expected it to come in handy now.
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately bid farewell to Tiandao Kong and quickly returned to the Tiandao Alliance's residence via a fast passage.
Just seconds after he successfully arrived at the Heavenly Alliance's residence, Sun Wukong heard a knock on the door.
For some reason, he had a gut feeling that the person knocking on the door was Lou Yishen.
As it turned out, his guess was correct.
When Sun Wukong opened the door, he saw Lou Yishen, who had changed his appearance, standing at the door waiting for him to open it.
Looking at Lou Yishen, who disguised himself as someone who could instantly become a sea of people in a crowd, Sun Wukong couldn't help but twitch his lips.
"Your outfit... is truly unique..."
“This way it’s safer and less likely to attract attention,” Lou Yishen said as he walked confidently into Sun Wukong’s residence.
Without any hesitation, he took out his completely broken, two-in-one substitute item and placed it in front of Sun Wukong.
"Here, my substitute prop. Are you really confident you can repair it?" Lou Yishen stared intently at Sun Wukong. If Sun Wukong said no, he would leave immediately.
Just kidding, he can't do things that waste his time.
Sun Wukong first locked the door, then set up a shielding formation to make sure no one else would notice before he came to the sofa.
Lou Yishen couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at Sun Wukong's cautious demeanor.
However, considering the special circumstances, he could understand the other party's caution.
Lou Yishen held his breath as he watched Sun Wukong intently fiddling with the broken props.
He was terrified that if he took a heavy breath, it would affect Sun Wukong's performance and cause the repair results to deviate, which would be terrible.
Lou Yishen only let out a long sigh of relief after Sun Wukong put the props down again.
"How is it? Can it be fixed?"
"Sure, but let's make it clear beforehand that you'll have to pay for the repair materials yourself," Sun Wukong said, picking up a pen and paper and writing down the materials needed for the repair.
A moment later, he handed the sheet of paper, densely covered with writing, to Lou Yishen and said in a serious tone:
"Here are the materials. Since I haven't done this before, I have to try them out to find out which material performs best."
He was explaining that his request for so many materials was purely out of caution, not an attempt to extort Lou Yishen.
Lou Yishen took the materials and glanced at them carefully. He had to admit that the materials required were all rare items and were generally not easy to find.
However, the combined value of these materials is almost half that of buying a substitute item.
Therefore, Lou Yishen accepted the existence of these materials without much hesitation.
"It will probably take about half a month to find all these materials for you. You should have no problem with the timeframe, right?" Lou Yishen asked Sun Wukong.
After all, there are several materials on this list. Although the price isn't high, you need to know how to obtain them.
It's already quite an achievement to be able to gather all these materials within half a month.
“Of course, no problem. But before that, we need to find the murderer and convict him. What do you think?” Sun Wukong said calmly, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Lou Yi glanced at Sun Wukong, but didn't hold back, and directly took out the brocade pouch.
"This is it. It's an item I got by accident. The guy who killed me shouldn't be having a good time right now."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong curiously opened the brocade pouch and saw a butterfly slowly float out of it, flying off in a certain direction.
It's like being attracted by something.
"It sounds pretty ordinary..." Sun Wukong stroked his chin, looking at the tracking butterfly, and muttered to himself.
In fact, in his opinion, this butterfly was quite ordinary, and could only be barely considered a spiritual creature!
To put it bluntly, this thing is nothing special in the prehistoric world.
Lou Yishen heard Sun Wukong's mutterings, but instead of getting angry, he chuckled and said:
"If you think this is nothing special, then your original world probably comes from a mid- to high-level psionic world!"
Only in such a world would these treasure-hunting items not be considered powerful tools.
After all, there are plenty of magical artifacts and treasures in this world.
While this type of item is not as precious as time-related or destiny-related items in the Heavenly Dao Alliance, it is not an extremely cheap, common item.
In particular, the one Lou Yishen has is a limited edition, specially customized for the tasker.
The price isn't much cheaper either.
Lou Yishen seemed to sense Sun Wukong's nervousness and added casually, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this, but you should be careful too."
"After all, there aren't many mission takers from mid- to high-level psionic worlds."
"If someone else finds out, they might get the idea to steal the treasure, and that would be terrible."
Hearing Lou Yishen's words of comfort, Sun Wukong chuckled dryly.
He never expected that a casual remark would reveal so much.
But it doesn't matter, since his strength is undeniable, and his primordial coordinates have been hidden.
