More than two hours went by, and it was about time we started worrying. The administrator had promised toe back in two hours and it should be precise and now it''s been a bit more than that.
Something must have happened to dy him this much.
"We should go and check up on him," the Blue Sun said as she took her eyes away from the reactor.
"I was thinking the same thing," I replied.
"No need, he''sing over," I heard from above us. Tao Yang was peering over us and apparently, the Administrator wasing over from above us.
"Although… he looks to be in a bit of a hurry," she added.
The Administrator zoomed past Tao Yang and left a small box next to her and then said "Don''t move! None of you move!" as he flew past the massive hole.

A secondter loud echoes of steel and metal being bent and torn rumbled above us, and right next to Tao Yang, two massive ws gripped at the side of the hole above us. The ws then tightened and the body of the Noble Rakshasa flew above the hole and followed the administrator in a screeching and rumbling rampage. Breaking any gate too weak and too thin to contain it in the process.
It didn''t notice any of us thankfully. All because the administrator was using itself as bait to lure the Noble Rakshasa away.
Secondster, we could no longer hear the Noble Rakshasa, it apparently either caught the Administrator or it is too far away for us to hear them.
Tao Yang grabbed the box and jumped down towards us, "This is the reader. It is quite old and I have no idea if it still works, but we don''t have much time," she said.
"I know," I replied as I began rummaging through the puppet''s holding bag.
I needed to find the b that had information about these reactors to understand them and try and fix them.
There was one purple b that fit the description. Since it had the reactor''s image on it, this was the reactor''s blueprint.
I took the purple b and ced it into the only seam on the box that it could fit it.
Secondster, the box began lighting up and the b began disying what was inside it. It was like a projection of the innerponent of the b that painted the walls in a bright purple color of words and symbols.
Looking at the symbols, I first found it hard to fully understand them since I haven''t sat down to study the symbols and literacy of the Srous people fully.
If I was a normal cultivator I would be boggled down and unable to proceed forward since I didn''t have ess to my real body and its abilities. However, my mind is still here. So I''m able to memorize. Though I cannot currently understand.
There were simply too many jargons to fully and rapidly understand at a nce so I had to take my time in reading and understanding this. However, that was not needed thanks to my photographic memory. I took a rapid and quick nce at everything in the walls, and then pulled any other b that had a rtion to the reactor and engineering area.
"What are you doing?" the Blue Sun asked.
"Memorizing," I said.
"That fast?" she asked. "I barely remembered a third.
A third is already a great portion due to how deep these inscriptions are. But sadly I cannot wait here for her to fully memorize anything, we don''t have enough time.
"I''ll have to keep swapping bs," I said as I ced another one.
"Why?" she asked.
Thanks to my mind I could easily multitask, as I replied to her while my eyes were going from left to right to read and memorize the new set of symbols.
"Because I''ll go back to the Pagoda and then study this, for now, I''m just cramming information and symbols in my mind. Only when I''m fully capable of understanding thisnguage and how it functions and its nuance can I touch that thing? Making a mistake might cost us dearly so I''d rather be prudent and careful than rash."
"I see," she said as she refrained from memorizing anymore since it would only hurt her head also I was doing it better anyway.
Twelve more bster, the engineering part was done. And I was able to add more tomes on the history,nguage, and mathematics of the Srous people which thankfully was not different than ours only they used different symbols for numbers which were easy to pick up on.
After I was done with that, I pulled out the red b, but sadly it was too big to fit into the box.
"That cannot be read by that, it can only be read via Soul Energy.
''Damn, if only it could be read, we wouldn''t even need to open a gate.''
"Okay we''re done for now," I said, "Let''s go back for now," I said.
"What about the gate?" the Blue Sun said.
"Not right now, as I said, I''ll need to study and understand this, once I''m done we''lle back here and solve the reactor''s issue then figure out how to disable the bastion''s ban on Qi. And spatial interference."
"How do we leave then?" Tao Yang asked.
"Simply say, log out," I said.
For a brief second, a thought crossed my mind, what if they cannot log out?
But thankfully the moment they said the words, the puppet''s blue eyes turned off.
"Logout," I said and found myself back in the Lord of Lords pagoda sitting right next to both Tao Yang and The Blue Sun.
"You failed?" I heard behind us, it was the Dusking Sun.
"No, on the contrary, we had good results," I said as I asked everyone to go to a different section in the white space where there was nothing but massive white walls where I could draw and write.
I began by pulling a pen and a piece of paper and started writing the entire dictionary of the people of Srous.
It took me about an hour to finish writing about three thousand pages worth of words.
"Damn, that is a gigantic lexicon," The Dusking Sun said.
"It may look gigantic but it''s fine. It''s barely enough to fill a fraction of the storage space of one of my Synthetic Meridians. now I have all the words and inscription symbols organized by order I can now analyze them. Automaton," I said.
"Yes lord," he replied as he appeared next to us.
"Please import this in one of our unused Synthetic Meridians," I said.
"The size of this book is rather small; would it be fine to use it in an empty Synthetic Meridian?"
"Yes, don''t worry about it. I''ll only use that one for analytic purposes. Please ce the Meridian here and bring me twelve high-precision arms," I said.
"As the Mastermands," he said and disappeared for a few moments before he came back with twelve robotic arms and a massive steel box that had one face made of ss and a blue liquid.
This was a screen that I''d be using to disy the reactor''s inner workings.
I pulled a new piece of paper and began jetting and writing and even drawing on it.
Once I was done, I handed this to the Automaton, "Get the puppets to make this for me, I don''t even need to ask you that everything needs to be precise," I said.
"As the Mastermands," the Automaton said.
"What are you doing?" the Blue Sun asked.
"I''m in need of aputer," I said.
"Well, I canpute very well," she said.
"Oh, not that. Although I highly respect your intellect, aputer''s ability topute is billions if not trillions of times faster than us. It will help us see and analyze the properties of the Reactor in the blink of an eye and divulge all of its secrets, just watch," I said.
"I''ll have to see this then," she said as she sat down.
I then began by attaching the twelve precision arms to the side of the massive box and once I was done with linking them there was arge empty space inside the box.
I sat down waiting for the Automaton toe back.
"Is this the Computer?"
"Not yet, but yes, it should be when I''m done," I said.
"Do you have others?" she asked.
"About three to four hundred of them," I said, "Each one has a different purpose. Why?" I asked.
"Nothing," she said, but the interest in her eyes betrayed her.
The automaton soon arrived with a spherical ball in hand.
"The dictionary has been imprinted on it," he said.
"Good," I replied as I grabbed the ball and ced it inside the box. It simply floated inside the box and the arms that were once attached began moving and analyzing themselves for defects.
After they moved in all possible directions and showed all the tools in them, they went back to their idle state.
Not longer than an hour, three puppets came over with a half circle keyboard. It was both a table and a keyboard as you can sit and it will surround you from almost all sides.
"Good, we''re now done," I said as I sat down.
"So, how does this work?" she asked.
"I''ll show you", I said as I asked the puppets to ce several pieces of metal and materials behind the box once I attached the keyboard to the box, it turned on, turning the blue liquid into a screen that began disying the words inserted inside the Synthetic Meridian.
Four robotic arms appeared from behind my back and to add that to my two arms I had six now.
And thus the typing began.
