Chapter 375 (2/2)

Soon Zhang Dong found himself moving down on this circular elevator that brought him to the insides of this large castle. While on the outside it looked like a structure fit for a king, its true functions were hidden away.

This was something that he used his years of crafting knowledge for. After absorbing all sorts of books about making treasures and upgrading them through the system he could put himself in the top five of best craftsmen that this empire had to offer.

While other masters mostly focused their skills on smaller items like weapons and pills, he had a tendency to build big. His first real step in this direction was the huge battleship that he had helped create.

The same battleship and a few other smaller similar ones were now ready and floating above the city.He could feel them activating their generators and getting ready to fire as soon as the barrier was turned off.

'Well then, I hope this thing doesn't just blow up on me…'

Zhang Dong found himself in some strange liquid then suddenly the light went on and he could see everything that was on the outside. He felt as if he was sitting in a pool filled with clear water but while being able to breathe.

During his exit from the lower room, he had also switched his clothes. He was wearing a skin-tight body suit that was similar to a wet suit. It had added armored parts on his ċhėst and shoulders which had now cables sticking out of them that connected to the strange control room that he was in.

'Biometric signature has been scanned, welcome administrator, would you like to activate the fortress 1?'

'I guess it's time to make myself known…'

”Activate all systems, activate the engines! Reactivate the shields at my command!”

While the grand formation barrier was canceled there was a way to restart it. By using up some of the stored power he could activate the reserve generators that were only accessible through his administrative privileges.

With the orders given many popup screens and loading screens turned up. The inside of the castle started to rumble as it activated as well. The outside structures started cracking as the floating fortress moved forward.

While he was saddened by the fact that he had to damage his own home that he had some fond memories in. His family was more important than material things, the kids were below ground and well protected with his disciples, they would be fine.

”The Patriarch's castle is moving! How could this be?”

”Is the grand formation working again?”

The sect members called out at the sight of their late Patriarch's home moving. It was a symbol that reminded them of him but most of the people here had thought him to had perished.

”People from the Soaring Dragon Sect, you are not welcome here, begone!”

His voice was heard through all the speakers that spread through the city. The large fortress that once looked like a villa started to shed its outer shell. Many cannons appeared from within and all of them were pointed at the ships and cultivators from the Soaring Dragon Sect.

”That Voice… could it really be?”

Zhang Liena backed away from the reactivated barrier and looked to her home approaching. While she wanted to believe that her husband was back, it could have been some intricate treasure with his voice.

”I'm sure you would rather do nothing more than to attack us but before we start killing ourselves I'd wish to speak with that person… yes the person called… Wang Long…”

Zhang Dong had his system so even through the computer screens he could see the man's name floating above his head. It was clear that he went for a similar style of naming but for some reason reversed the last name with his name.

”What is that? Did we activate a hidden boss?”

The pervert called out while not even seeming alarmed by the appearance of the flying castle.

'Bob, can you directly connect me to his system, so we can have a private conversation?'

'Affirmative, connecting now.'

With one last try, Zhang Dong decided to try the olive branch approach. The person was not of this world, so maybe if he knew that he was interacting with another 'player' he might see things differently.

'Connection established.'

”Hello there Long Wang, we need to talk…”
