Chapter 395: Why Is My Career Panel in a 2D Anime Style? Chapter 179

She was a mature woman, over two meters tall, with a perfectly proportioned figure.

Of course, what drew the most attention was her hair, radiant like a rainbow, as if plucked straight from a Mary Sue novel's heroine.

In response to her question, Danika and her two companions exchanged glances, then prepared to point her in the right direction.

The main reason was the 【Aio Logistics】 identity she revealed; as fellow personnel from Colony Star 9527, Danika and Lu Ke naturally knew Li Ang had some connection with this cosmic giant.

But before they could move, a towering figure clad entirely in pitch-black armor, even his face hidden behind a visor, suddenly appeared in the midst of them.

【Star Plunder Knight · Otavio】.

Gazing at the two distant dragons, Otavio's tone remained utterly calm: "Apologies, my master is currently unavailable to receive guests. If you have time to spare, please wait a few days on Morabis Star."

At the sudden appearance of the knight, the two dragons reacted in starkly different ways.

Sophia, the gem dragon, stared at Otavio, a flicker of confusion passing through her eyes.

'Why does he feel familiar? And this aura is incredibly strong—does that little kid really have such a powerful ally?'

Moreover, whether it was an illusion or not, Sophia couldn't shake the feeling that the figure across from her looked familiar.

Unlike Sophia, upon seeing Otavio, Ilyes opened her mouth wide like a startled puppy, continuously emitting fearful whimpers.

Seeing this, Sophia sighed helplessly: "Sorry for the spectacle."

"Since your master is currently unavailable, we'll wait then—after all, it was our fault for not giving prior notice."

As she spoke, she patted Ilyes's thick foreleg, signaling her to transform into human form as well.

Meanwhile, Sophia couldn't help muttering inwardly: 'Seriously, what was my father thinking, saying I should get to know him first?'

'That little kid is still a hatchling, right? The age difference is absurd.'

'And that bunch of lunatics in the Typhomet Department—how could they let Ilyes, this fool, tag along?'

Thinking of this, she couldn't help sighing again.

Being a dragon is exhausting, and if things go as my father planned, I'll surely be mocked when I return to the clan.

Like a pony pulling a cart meant for oxen.

Recalling certain spell components circulating online, Sophia's fair cheeks flushed slightly.

……

On the other side.

Li Ang had no idea that just after he left, Aio Logistics had come knocking.

At this moment, he was staring blankly at the surroundings, which felt strangely familiar.

". Did it work?"

Judging from the surrounding architecture, he was likely in the Republic of China era.

Just as Li Ang was about to ask someone for information, he seemed to see something—his tense body instantly relaxed: "I really came back."

As for what exactly he saw—

It was simple: a bun shop owner preparing the next batch of buns.

Without doubt, Li Ang had indeed returned to the world of One Man's World.

Seeing that he had successfully interfered with the 【Traveler】 talent, Li Ang smiled, then flicked his finger, slipping a small piece of gold into the bun seller's pocket.

It was the payment he'd given last time for directions.

After doing this, Li Ang prepared to return to Sanyi Sect first.

'I wonder how many years have passed since I last left.'

Thinking of this, Li Ang felt a pang of nostalgia.

Yet before he could move, several prompts flashed onto his career panel.

【￥%@! Due to unknown reasons, the travel destination has changed.】

【Current World:???】.

【Establishing connection…】

【Connection established. Cause a global-scale event in this world to push **** into the next stage.】

Looking at the panel's message, Li Ang raised an eyebrow.

'So the main universe doesn't care much about which world it is.'

'That's fine—if I complete development, even without activating the 【Traveler】 talent, I should be able to travel back and forth between One Man's World and the main universe.'

Not just One Man's World—same for any other world he'd visited.

'I just wonder what effect this will have on the main universe.'

Thinking of this, Li Ang's gaze flickered slightly.

The main universe undoubtedly benefits from world development, but with his current strength, he still couldn't discern what that benefit was.

'Forget it—better return to Sanyi Sect first. These matters are still too distant.'

After taking a deep breath to steady his emotions, Li Ang vanished in a flash.

Moments later, the bun shop owner felt something hard and uncomfortable in his apron, and instinctively reached inside to feel around.

He pulled out a small piece of gold.

Staring at the object in his hand, the bun shop owner froze in stunned silence.

"Did I just imagine this??"

……

Sanyi Sect.

After a certain upheaval several years ago, this Xuan Sect entered a state of mountain closure.

In these years, Sanyi Sect had not taken in a single new disciple, as if it had entirely abandoned its future.

The Realm of Extraordinaries had many speculations about this.

For example, that Sect Master Zuo had suffered a deviation while cultivating and didn't have long to live, or that the Sanyi Sect's very foundation was flawed.

It was just that after Zuo Ruotong struck down and killed an intruder from some nation's strange-being, no one ever doubted again whether this Daying Immortal had suffered a cultivation deviation.

No. Rather than saying he suffered a deviation, it would be better to say he had advanced further.

Reverse Birth: Three Layers — it really did have three layers.

Since there were three layers, the Sanyi Sect's foundation naturally had no problem either.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary strange-beings, the manifestation of the third layer of Reverse Birth: Three Layers could already be entirely worthy of being called an immortal.

However, certain beings could indeed see that this Sect Leader Zuo's condition was somewhat off.

At this moment, after supervising the remaining disciples within the sect in completing their lessons, Zuo Ruotong walked into the Ancestral Hall, preparing to light a few sticks of incense anew.

But the moment he stepped into the ancestral hall, he saw a somewhat familiar back gazing at the ancestral spirit tablets in a trance.

Zuo Ruotong was first stunned, then slightly furrowed his brow and, somewhat uncertainly, called out the figure's name: "Li Ang?"

Hearing the voice, the figure turned around, revealing a rather youthful face.

Li Ang looked at Zuo Ruotong, whose entire body exuded an aura of decay, and greeted him softly:

"Master, it's been a long time."
