Chapter 3594

In the world of Immortal Sword and Heroic Legend, inside a simple thatched cottage.

The Wine Sword Immortal crossed his arms, his expression grim as he stared at the special computer before him, its casing made of bamboo.

As for Thor, he was currently fumbling with the computer, muttering curses under his breath.

"This damn five, what use is this computer? There aren't even any games inside… It's garbage."

"It's garbage beyond anything I can imagine!"

"Games"

The Wine Sword Immortal fell into deep thought. What was this thing? Was this so-called "computer" meant primarily for games? Then this device before him must be a defective version.

Just then, a brilliant radiance rose up.

Following that, the figures of Su Han and the others appeared one by one.

Ao Bing's hair hung loosely behind him, with small, delicate dragon horns on his forehead.

He had already carved out a new realm for the dragon race, leaving behind his old world, so he no longer needed to hide his identity—he was far happier and freer than before.

Kayaba Akihiko wore a white lab coat, appearing like… an ordinary researcher, yet two great swords were strapped to his back.

This gave him an utterly unusual aura.

"Computers made in this era were surely designed to advance technology! How could they possibly contain games?"

Maochang Jingyan let out a long sigh, staring helplessly at Thor. "And if you want to play games, you can just enter Daogong Society and play—why are you fixated on this ordinary computer?"

Thor stiffened, then rubbed his nose. "Huh… you're right."

The atmosphere grew awkward.

"Where are the enemies?"

Ao Bing turned to face the Wine Sword Immortal, his voice low.

"The Worship-of-the-Moon Cult Leader and Li Tianxun… should be near the lake where the Water Demon is sealed."

The Wine Sword Immortal replied.

After thinking for a moment, Thor added, "They've probably already discovered how to revive the Water Demon! And… I even saw them pouring all sorts of strange substances into that lake… Given all this, the Water Demon should be greatly enhanced."

"That's standard procedure."

Su Han shrugged, then opened the Daogong Society livestream.

In the space of a single breath, his Observing Aura had locked onto the enemy's location—he snapped his fingers, and the void before him collapsed. "Let's go directly there!"

Maochang Jingyan and Ao Bing naturally had no objections.

But the Wine Sword Immortal's face showed hesitation; finally, he clenched his teeth and whispered, "I… I won't go with you."

"I plan to go to the Witch King's Palace first, then retrieve Zhao Linger."

"Then I'll go with you!"

After a brief pause, Thor slapped his chest, declaring confidently, "I came to this world originally to help you! I'd never abandon you now just because there's a mission!"

Though Thor appeared coarse, he was in fact extremely generous and deeply loyal.

"Thank you!"

The Wine Sword Immortal softly exhaled two words.

His gratitude was beyond words, but he said nothing more—he simply held it in his heart.

"Then let's split up!"

Su Han extended a finger and tapped the air beside him; space collapsed again, forming a brand-new passage.

This was the path leading to the Witch King's Palace. Su Han stepped into the passage toward the Water Demon's lake; Maochang Jingyan and Ao Bing followed closely behind.

The Wine Sword Immortal and Thor exchanged a glance; after thinking for a moment, Thor said, "Wait a moment!"

As he spoke, Thor opened the Daogong Society livestream.

Then he closed his eyes and entered Daogong Society to observe; his voice carried amazement. "It's really possible… to open two livestreams at once?"

The Wine Sword Immortal: "…"

The Wine Sword Immortal stood dumbfounded.

Is this really the time for this? Thor laughed heartily, clapped the Wine Sword Immortal on the shoulder, then dragged him into the collapsing void before them.

…… At this moment, the Worship-of-the-Moon Cult Leader and Li Tianxun stood beside the Water Demon's lake.

Along the lakeshore stood wooden-and-metal constructs—mechanical puppets—continuously hauling various strange objects, which they were about to dump into the lake before them.

The Water Demon's lake had turned completely black, with bubbles rising incessantly.

"Can you feel it?"

Li Tianxun's face glowed with fanaticism. "The Water Demon's aura is growing stronger! Its innate power is being restored… Once fully enhanced, it will walk on land and fly through the sky—this small lake cannot contain it.

It will be able to unleash its cataclysmic power anywhere.

And it will be immortal! Its energy will never run out."

"With it as our forward base, combined with our mechanical puppets, seizing the Witch King's Palace and suppressing all resistance will be effortless. Even if the Central Plains hold places like Shu Mountain, those sword immortals… they won't stop us! We will become truly invincible, and push this world into a scientific golden age."

"Truly magnificent!"

The Worship-of-the-Moon Cult Leader's expression grew dreamy. He did not seek to unify the world.

But he very much wanted to witness the unprecedented scientific golden age Li Tianxun had once described.

.............."What a pity... your intention isn't merely to promote technology! You want to brainwash the entire world and truly become the sovereign of all under heaven."

"Pity… your idea isn't simply about advancing technology! You want to brainwash the world and become its true sovereign.

In the end, technology is merely a tool to fulfill your ambition!"

A sigh echoed.

Li Tianxun's pupils suddenly contracted; he drew a sharp sword from his side and spun around sharply.

There he saw Su Han and the others.

"How could you be you... I thought you were the Sword Immortal of Wine!"

Li Tianxun's expression changed violently, his mind shaken to the extreme.

In an instant, he recognized Ao Bing, this... the dragon-race powerhouse from *Ne Zha: Birth of the Demon Child*, who likewise occupied a protagonist's position.

As for Kayaba Akihiko on the other side, he hesitated for a moment, then recognized him too.

Mainly the face shape was similar, but the equipment and even the clothing were entirely different from those of the *Sword Art Online* world, so it made him hesitate for an instant.

As for the last one... Li Tianxun looked at Su Han, his eyelid twitching—an Easterner's appearance, yet so perfect he was no mortal... No! This guy might really not be human.

But rather an immortal from the heavens.

But... these............ either characters who never appeared in the original *Chinese Paladin*, or figures from other worlds... why would they all appear here at the same time? Could the ancient era of *Chinese Paladin* be... Could Ao Bing from *Ne Zha: Birth of the Demon Child* have lived until now... that doesn't add up either! If Ao Bing could barely be connected, then what's the deal with Kayaba Akihiko? Ten thousand novels
