CHAPTER 462: CHAPTER 347 PREPARATION

Pfft—

Wen Nan bit down, and the Benedict egg, just put into his mouth, burst open.

Golden egg yolk spurted out, splattering all over Wen Nan’s hands, and some even splashed onto Yu Shujun’s face.

"No, sorry, I didn’t mean to spray it."

Wen Nan hurriedly put down the toast soaked in egg yolk and raised his hand to help Yu Shujun wipe her face.

In his heart, he already had a profound idea about the 800-word taste report he needed to submit to Alex—

Benedict eggs are not suitable as the main dish for brunch, especially when dining together as a couple, because if the eggs are not handled properly, the juice inside can spray, leading to a disaster.

As he thought idly, his hand reached out, but just as Wen Nan’s fingers were about to touch Yu Shujun’s face, she turned her head to avoid it.

Yu Shujun stared seriously into Wen Nan’s eyes, demanding a clear answer: "Okay?"

It’s not just weird to apply for consent to pursue someone, but even odder to insist seriously that the person gives an answer.

Honestly, when Wen Nan said he wanted to think it over, he didn’t intend to keep the other person waiting. He figured in three to five days, or maybe a day or two, or even after one night of sleep, he’d figure it out.

During such a short time, there was no need to make such a demand.

Moreover, given Yu Shujun’s pitifully small store of common sense, she probably hadn’t stayed much in her original instance—

After all, even low-star characters like Qiqi were quickly assimilated into players, yet Yu Shujun, a high-level character with strong learning abilities, showed almost no signs of assimilation, only starting to learn after Wen Nan’s hints...

Clearly, she hadn’t been "polluted" by players, and while she always pretended to be a player, she was purer than any character.

What means could such a woman use to pursue someone?

Wen Nan suddenly became very curious, so a tiny mischievous flame inside him was ignited, lifting the corners of his lips, unable to suppress it, "Sure."

Yu Shujun finally felt relieved, wiping the yellow liquid from her cheek, and then picked up the knife and fork again, beginning to taste the breakfast in a formal manner.

Wen Nan shook his head with a smile, thought of something else, his smile a bit restrained, and asked, "Xiao Jun, do you have 2.5 Fragments?"

Yu Shujun paused with the fork in her hand, nodded seriously, "Mm."

Wen Nan continued, "One transfer Fragment, half a replication Fragment..."

The last question, Wen Nan didn’t voice, feeling the system might not allow him to ask, and worried the other party might not want to say it.

But Yu Shujun straightforwardly said, "And...this."

Saying this, Yu Shujun placed her hand to the side, flicked her wrist, and golden light immediately floated in her palm, quickly converging into a light sword.

Wen Nan looked down, his gaze landing on the familiar Root Breaking Slash, pondering, and as he looked closer, he discovered the intricacy—

The hilt of the light sword was embedded with a gemstone.

Because it emitted the same subtle golden glow, merging with the brilliance of the Root Breaking Slash itself, Wen Nan never paid much attention to its existence, simply considering it a carving on the hilt, completely unaware it was a perfectly integrated gemstone inlaid into the light sword.

And on the surface of that gemstone, there was a tiny rune, with a "○" below and "丷" above, like a face with two horns.

It’s the Taurus.

"Solidification Anchor." Yu Shujun voiced a name, "It can transform illusions and certain elements that shouldn’t exist in certain timespaces into reality."

This powerful?

Breaking through the dimensional wall?

I want to materialize Sakurashima Mai in the real world, is that possible?

This time, Yu Shujun didn’t grasp the profound meaning in Wen Nan’s eyes, "What’s wrong?"

Wen Nan snapped back, asked, "Can I borrow this Solidification Anchor?"

Seeing the cautious way he asked her to borrow a Fragment, Yu Shujun couldn’t help but chuckle silently.

How could an owner ask a glyph-controlled character for something in this manner? If Wen Nan really wanted it and Yu Shujun could give it, she wouldn’t refuse at all.

However, even if Yu Shujun wanted to give it, she couldn’t.

"This Fragment is currently in use and can’t be lent out." Yu Shujun replied truthfully.

Wen Nan nodded, indicating he understood, "You use this Fragment to walk freely between the game lobby and different instances?"

Although Yu Shujun’s star level was sufficient to leave her original instance, without other players helping her sign an agreement, how could she stay in this world that supposedly didn’t belong to her as a player?

It must be due to this Fragment.

However, Yu Shujun slowly shook her head, "No, not just me."

If it were only Yu Shujun needing the Fragment, she could stop using it temporarily and lend it to him.

The issue now is, this Fragment is used to help other members in her [Nameless] guild.

Those members, thanks to the [Nameless] guild’s shared equipment library, combined with the Divine Staff Fragment’s priority over instances, allowed them to share the Fragment’s benefits with Yu Shujun. Therefore, they too could complete tasks in other instances as players, like Yu Shujun.

If Yu Shujun were to forcibly stop using the "Solidification Anchor" now, without the Fragment’s protection, their identities would be deemed a violation by the system, facing the risk of being recalled and sent into the furnace.
