91: Chapter 91 Perfect Repair
The pressure originating from the depths of Wang Pingan's spiritual sea of consciousness descended like an invisible, sky-covering giant hand!
It was no longer the cautious probing and combing from before.
Instead, it was the most direct, brutal, and utterly unreasonable absolute suppression!
That ancient spirit imprint, which had just been raging wildly and attempting to detonate the entire star map fragment, was like a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum who suddenly encountered his hot-tempered father brandishing a belt in front of this much grander and more domineering spirit pressure.
Its arrogant aura was extinguished in an instant.
The violent spirit shockwave it emitted was as fragile as a joke in the face of this god-like pressure, crumbling instantly.
The entire rampaging star map fragment eerily quieted down at this moment.
"Thi... This is..."
Instructor Hera, who was just about to initiate the escape sequence, froze completely in place.
Her bright eyes widened like copper bells as she stared fixedly at Wang Pingan, her face filled with a shock that could not be described in words.
She felt it.
She felt it clearly.
That spirit pressure that had erupted from Wang Pingan just a moment ago!
"Come here!"
Silver flames danced in Wang Pingan's eyes.
He reached out and made a grasping motion towards the star map fragment floating in mid-air.
His silver spirit telekinesis, which had already materialized, transformed into countless fine chains, tightly binding the trembling ancient spirit imprint.
Then, in an extremely brutal manner, he forcibly dragged it out from the core of the star map fragment's energy circuit!
After being dragged out, the dark golden rune imprint was still struggling violently and flickering unwillingly.
However, Wang Pingan just snorted coldly.
"Still daring to jump around?"
His spirit pressure increased by a few notches!
Crack.
A crisp cracking sound, seemingly coming from the soul level, rang out.
The dark golden rune imprint's light dimmed completely, and fine cracks appeared on its surface.
Immediately after, under Wang Pingan's cold will, it shattered with a boom!
It turned into the purest, ownerless spirit energy particles and dissipated into the air.
A small portion of it was incidentally absorbed by Wang Pingan's spiritual sea of consciousness.
A cool and nourishing sensation spread throughout his entire spiritual sea of consciousness.
The severe pain caused by his excessive consumption was alleviated significantly in an instant.
"Huh? This thing is actually a potent supplement?"
A flash of surprise crossed Wang Pingan's mind.
But he didn't have time to study this right now.
After removing that "virus program," the energy circuits inside the star map fragment finally returned to complete calm.
Wang Pingan did not stop for a second.
He once again separated a strand of spirit power and probed into it.
This time, there were no obstacles at all.
He controlled the originally chaotic energy flow like the most brilliant conductor leading a massive symphony orchestra.
He guided those energy flows back into place, following the most perfect and correct route parsed by the Eye of Truth.
Broken circuits were reconnected.
Distorted structures were corrected one by one.
Under his control, the entire vast and complex energy circuit bit by bit restored its intended perfect and harmonious operating mode.
Hum—!
When the last strand of energy flow returned to its correct track.
The entire palm-sized black metal fragment suddenly emitted a violent hum!
It shook all over!
Immediately after, the originally dull, fine, and intricate patterns on its surface seemed to be injected with life at this moment!
Beams of brilliant, star-like light rapidly lit up along those patterns!
They intertwined and converged, eventually forming a small, yet incomparably deep and vast three-dimensional star map in the very center of the fragment!
Within that star map, thousands of light points were slowly moving along an arcane trajectory.
An ancient, vast, and wisdom-filled aura emanated from that star map.
Restoration successful!
Wang Pingan let out a long sigh of relief as he looked at this piece of art before him, which seemed to have been reborn.
He felt as if he had just finished a world war that lasted for several hours.
His entire being, from body to soul, was permeated with deep exhaustion.
He withdrew his spirit power, and only then did he feel that his whole body was uncomfortable; his body swayed, and his face was as pale as a sheet of paper.
Just then.
A pair of soft yet strong hands caught him from the side in time.
Wang Pingan turned his head and saw Instructor Hera's beautiful face close at hand, filled with complex emotions.
She had already taken off her gold-rimmed glasses.
Her bright, autumn-water-like eyes were staring unblinkingly at Wang Pingan.
In those eyes, there was shock, astonishment, curiosity, and appreciation...
Even a trace of a light called "admiration" that she herself hadn't noticed.
"You..."
Instructor Hera opened her mouth, and her cold voice carried a trace of an imperceptible tremor at this moment.
"How on earth did you do it?"
She asked the question that had been circling in her mind since just now, leaving her completely baffled.
Watching her bewildered appearance, Wang Pingan squeezed a weak yet incredibly brilliant smile onto his face.
He leaned against Instructor Hera's shoulder, which emitted a faint fragrance, and said in a voice so weak it was barely audible, only heard by the two of them.
"I already told you, Instructor."
"Just use administrator privileges to format and reinstall the system, isn't that enough?"
After saying this, he rolled his eyes, as if he could no longer hold on, and simply "fainted" away.
Leaving only Instructor Hera alone, holding his "weak" body, standing there blankly.
Her mind was still echoing with Wang Pingan's words, which she completely couldn't understand but felt were profound and mysterious.
Format?
Reinstall the system?
What on earth does this mean?
Just then.
The tightly closed alloy door of the restoration room was violently knocked open from the outside!
Instructor Shi Yan's tall and anxious figure appeared at the doorway.
He was clearly attracted by the ear-piercing energy alarm just now.
When he saw the intact instruments in the restoration room, as well as the ancient star map fragment that was emitting brilliant light and operating perfectly.
He was stunned.
Then his gaze fell upon the "unconscious" boy who was being held in Instructor Hera's arms in an extremely ambiguous posture.
Instructor Shi Yan's stern face instantly became incredibly strange.
