480: Chapter 480 Guide Alice

"Beep, beep."

"Hello?"

"Zhou Yan, where are you? I've found a way to help you."

Zhou Yan casually answered the phone and used his Divine Sense to shield his surroundings.

"You're no longer needed. I have my own way out."

"Oh, right, don't tell anyone about my identity. My current image is quite sensitive; if it gets out, you might be dealt with."

"Damn, are you a bandit? Just because I've seen your face, you want to deal with me?"

Zhou Yan curved his lips, teasing casually.

"Much more dangerous than a bandit. Anyway, I'm not joking, just be careful yourself."

With that, Zhou Yan hung up the call, then looked at the fleeting light and shadows outside the window.

He was currently on a train traversing space.

Zhou Yan had only just learned about the composition of the Desire Realm.

It turned out that the Desire Realm was not one large world.

It was more like a bunch of grapes wrapped in a balloon, then the air was continuously drawn out, making the balloon cling tightly to the grapes.

From the outside, it looked like a whole, but in reality, the inside was individual Small Worlds squeezed into a large space.

And Zhou Yan was now traveling from the Small World where Dream City was located to the Small World where the City of Universal Love, controlled by the Joyous Union Sect, was located.

He planned to go there to meet the King Dong and record his new identity.

"It really is a bit exciting, for some reason."

In the past, when Zhou Yan used alternate accounts and identities, it was either to frame someone or his identity would be exposed quickly.

But Zhou Yan had a premonition that this Kong Xuan identity might be his first truly valuable identity in a strict sense.

Mu Qianqiu looked at the disconnected phone, forcing a smile as he turned to the beautiful and charming woman beside him.

This woman was clearly stunningly beautiful, a pinnacle of pure desire, yet Mu Qianqiu couldn't appreciate her at all, his mind solely focused on how to retreat unscathed.

"Where did he go?"

Listening to her melodious voice, Mu Qianqiu knew that playing dead was useless, so he could only brace himself and say.

"He... didn't say."

Half a minute later, looking at his bulging chest and missing 'brothers,' Mu Qianqiu's eyes lost their light.

"How am I going to get through these next two weeks?"

He couldn't help but recall how Li Lei had clung to him after he suffered the gender-bend punishment last time.

And this time, after seeing Zhou Yan's female body, he also understood the terrifying allure of the gender-bend element.

So he was absolutely unwilling to meet familiar people in this state.

Finally, he sent a message to the first contact in his phone.

"Meng Ke, I was bitten to death by a passing stray dog, so I need to go to the Gui Xu to play a resurrection match for the next two weeks. I can't be your agent for now."

After receiving a reply of "Are you sick?", Mu Qianqiu immediately requested two weeks of accidental death leave from the Joyous Union Sect.

Lying on the ground, Mu Qianqiu, whose eyes had lost their light, slowly raised his hand.

Looking at his now more delicate hand, the fire in his eyes reignited.

"I will not become effeminate! Watch me turn this sorrow into motivation and Cultivate fiercely for two weeks."

"Don't underestimate the bond between me and normal preferences!"

City of Universal Love, Inner City.

"Hmph, this truly is the greatest manifestation of species diversity."

As soon as Zhou Yan got off the train, he personally experienced the local customs and traditions.

He looked at the various creatures filling the streets, as well as some non-biological entities.

He then looked at the projections of various promotional posters, "which stated that all genders are treated equally, show your individuality," and there were hundreds of genders listed on them alone.

One could only say that it truly lived up to being a Xuanhuan world; the real world wouldn't even dare to imagine such things, and only the racial diversity here could barely satisfy these.

After watching a female helicopter and its transgender rock octopus boyfriend affectionately leave his sight, Zhou Yan unexpectedly felt that the Law of the Heart had advanced a little.

At the same time, Zhou Yan once again felt that being able to freely perceive the hearts of others was not necessarily a good thing; he really didn't want to know so many strange genders.

By the way, can the Law advance this way? Is the next step of 'heart' curiosity? Does a curious heart also count as 'heart'?

"Beautiful boss, is this your first day here?"

A slightly electronic female voice came from beside him. Zhou Yan followed the sound and saw a youthful and beautiful girl with a single ponytail.

However, under Zhou Yan's Divine Sense, he could easily feel that the person in front of him was not a real girl, but a bionic robot.

When he saw the robot, Zhou Yan didn't think much of it at first, as Taiyi City also had many robots, though bionic types were indeed rare.

But when Zhou Yan looked closely, he noticed the difference.

The Law of the Heart actually reacted to her?

A living robot?

Seeing Zhou Yan's slightly furrowed brow, the robot became even more certain that he was visiting the City of Universal Love for the first time.

"It seems, boss, that this is indeed your first time here, and even your first time seeing an intelligent machine like me, right?"

"Then, do you need a guide? Although there are many travel guides and road directions online, a more personable guide would definitely be more cost-effective."

"It only costs five Spirit Stones a day."

Zhou Yan looked again and, after confirming that the robot in front of him was different from the helicopter he had seen earlier, not being Acquiredly modified but rather having an intelligent machine Origin, became interested and paid her five Spirit Stones.

"Alright, then take me to this address. We can look around along the way."

After sending the information, her eyes lit up, and she smiled even more brightly.

"Thank you, boss. I wish you happiness every day."

"My name is Alice. How should I address you, boss?"

"My surname is Kong," Zhou Yan replied.

"Okay, Boss Kong, let's set off."

Alice began to show Zhou Yan around.

First, she introduced some cultural landmarks, then some important places like hospitals and shopping malls, and then recommended several Treasure Trove-like small eateries not usually marked on maps.

Zhou Yan casually glanced at them and saw that many of the chefs could reach a third-level standard, which was indeed quite good in the Eastern Domain, a place that could be dominated by Taiyi Sect's pre-prepared meals.

Zhou Yan observed the city along the way, gaining a general understanding. Seeing that they were not far from their destination, he finally asked the question he had been wanting to ask.

"Alice, my question might be a bit presumptuous, but I've genuinely never seen a life form like you before."

"So, could you tell me why you... are in this state?"

Robots were already commonplace.

In the technologically booming Eastern Domain, various mechanical creations were ubiquitous, and robots were everywhere.

However, apart from functional robots, Zhou Yan had only seen those who might have transformed themselves into robots for special purposes.

But even then, when he saw the Divine Being who had transformed himself into a helicopter, he only felt a slight push in the Law of the Heart.

And now, after a short time together, Zhou Yan inexplicably had a sudden urge, a feeling that Alice in front of him could help him advance the Law.

So he finally asked this question.

Alice stepped back a few paces, coming to a position parallel with Zhou Yan.

"Many outsiders want to know this question. It's quite rare for someone like you, boss, to ask it after so long."

"However, as a seller, I naturally adhere to the principle of customer first, so Alice certainly doesn't mind satisfying the boss's little curiosity."

After saying that, she even gave a playful wink.

When he saw that wink, Zhou Yan's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.

This wasn't a sudden love at first sight for the little mecha-girl, but rather Zhou Yan suddenly remembered a meme, and a strange emotion welled up in his heart.

It feels like I haven't winked in so many years. The last time was probably twenty years ago, when I was being silly with Yi Sanyi.

What the heck! Why did I suddenly enter a flashback??

Zhou Yan instantly became vigilant, activating both his mini-map and Law detection.

In an instant, Zhou Yan scanned the little mecha-girl thoroughly, but no matter how he looked, she was just a normal robot, her friendliness was normal, and she didn't seem to be disguised to harm him.

Impossible, there's actually nothing wrong?

My Dao Heart is so stable, why was it fine before, but now there's an issue?

Before Zhou Yan could figure it out, Alice began to tell a story of love and AI.
