Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

After listening to the virtual old man's words, Xiao Ce also formed his own interpretation.

Simply put, this Star Network Hub has a cooldown period, which is one day.

Xiao Ce has no use for this Star Network Hub right now, so shutting it down is undoubtedly the best option, bar none.

It's unclear whether Siu Ding-shan shares the same stance as him.

However, it now appears that Xiao Dingshan did not harm Xiao Ce.

Not only did he not harm Xiao Dingshan, but he also helped Xiao Ce.

So in a sense, they shouldn't be considered enemies.

And now, the situation on the other side also requires him to shut it down.

Therefore, Xiao Ce has nothing to think about right now.

Xiao Ce said to the virtual old man, "Then shut it down. What do I need to do?"

The virtual old man said, "I just need to help you open and close the page, and then you can pass by providing a witness..."

Xiao Ce said to the virtual old man, "What if I need to activate it?"

The virtual old man said to Xiao Ce, "Just summon me, and I can help you activate it, then..."

After hearing the virtual elder's words, Xiao Ce still had an incredulous expression on his face, and then said to the virtual elder, "Should I summon you?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, the virtual elder said, "Not bad!"

Then the virtual old man said to Xiao Ce, "Master, are you wearing a smart ring?"

After hearing the virtual elder's words, Xiao Ce froze on the spot, then asked the virtual elder, "What the hell is a smart ring? What is that?"

Without saying a word, the virtual old man simply flicked his sleeve, and a ring appeared in front of him.

Xiao Ce shook his head after seeing the ring.

The virtual elder said, "This smart ring can change its appearance..."

As he spoke, the virtual image in front of the virtual old man began to change.

Xiao Ce subconsciously thought of something and recalled the ring he had suddenly obtained from Xiao Dingshan in Lingas City.

Xiao Ce then took the ring out of his pocket.

"is it this one?"

After seeing the ring Xiao Ce had taken out, the virtual elder nodded and then said to Xiao Ce, "Master, not bad..."

"This is a smart ring? It doesn't look any different from a regular ring to me," Xiao Ce said, fiddling with the ring.

After examining the ring for a while, I couldn't find anything different about it.

The virtual old man said, "Because you haven't implanted the corresponding intelligent assistant."

Xiao Ce was quite clever this time, and directly asked the virtual old man, "So, can you implant this smart ring?"

The virtual old man said, "Of course."

Xiao Ce asked the virtual old man, "Will that affect the system?"

The virtual elder said to Xiao Ce, "It won't affect anything. I'm just an assistant to operate this Star Network Hub System. It doesn't matter where I am... I was born with this Star Network Hub System. So, it doesn't matter which vessel I'm on. This smart ring is just one vessel."

After hearing the virtual old man's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Alright then... how will you get in..."

The virtual elder then instructed Xiao Ce to put the ring on his finger...

After putting on the ring, the virtual old man simply touched it lightly with his finger.

Then a screen of light appeared on the ring.

After the light screen appeared, the virtual old man did nothing, and a piece of data began to appear on the light screen.

The data and codes flipped rapidly on the light screen.

A short while later, a prompt appeared on the screen asking whether to select loading the Void AI.

The virtual old man then said to Xiao Ce, "Master, your consent is required."

Xiao Ce clicked "agree," and then the ring displayed several more lines of code.

Finally, it showed success.

Immediately afterwards, the smart ring began asking Xiao Ce if he needed to change the name of the virtual old man.

Xiao Ce then looked at the virtual old man and said, "Calling you 'Void' is a bit too much of a flattery..."

The virtual old man said to Xiao Ce, "I actually have a name, you probably don't remember it..."

Upon hearing the virtual elder's words, Xiao Ce became curious and asked, "Oh? What's your name?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, the virtual old man replied truthfully, "You call me Lingxu."

After hearing the virtual old man's words, Xiao Ce muttered to himself, "Lingxu, void... a good name... I didn't expect I'd be so good at naming things..."

"Alright, then I'll rename you Lingxu."

This thing is really smart.

Xiao Ce only needs to open his mouth, and the virtual old man can do it.

After a data migration and binding data bar appeared above the virtual old man's head.

Once it reached 100%, the virtual old man said to Xiao Ce, "Master, from now on, you can call me Lingxu, and that will wake me up."

As he spoke, the virtual elder demonstrated it to Xiao Ce. The virtual elder was usually in hibernation mode within the smart ring.

After Xiao Ce called out, the virtual old man actually appeared.

"Interesting! Does this thing need to be charged?"

The virtual old man said to Xiao Ce, "No need to charge."

Listening to what the virtual old man said, Xiao Ce thought to himself, "This thing really is cutting-edge technology."

"Lingxu, could you help me change the shape of this ring?" Xiao Ce thought this ring was exactly the same as Xiao Dingshan's ring.

Xiao Ce still felt it was too conspicuous.

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Ling Xu naturally gave Xiao Ce a direct answer.

"sure..."

As Lingxu spoke, he raised his hand again, and many different ring designs appeared before him.

Xiao Ce witnessed this scene and exclaimed, "Wow, that's high-tech!"

Xiao Ce didn't have any other needs; he just wanted things to be simple, so he found a similarly minimalist style...

After Xiao Ce confirmed it, the ring began to change its appearance.

As the ring began to change its appearance, Xiao Ce still exclaimed how amazing it was.

Even if he came from the future.

However, Xiao Ce felt that this technology was something that wouldn't exist in his world.

Xiao Ce felt that even if his world advanced another hundred years, it might not be able to evolve to this level.

Xiao Ce was surprised.

Da Lei and Yin Pan'er kept wiping their eyes.

What they were seeing made them wonder whether the thing was real or fake.

Just as Xiao Ce was surprised.

Lingxu then began to explain the function of this smart ring.

"Master, let me now introduce you to the functions of this smart ring. It has over a thousand functions..."

Xiao Ce was completely stunned when he heard Ling Xu's words.

Although he was shocked, Xiao Ce still didn't interrupt...

...

Lingxu then began to introduce the topic.

First of all, it has a holographic projection function.

This function, simply put, can change Xiao Ce's overall appearance and features.

Xiao Ce didn't want to interrupt, but he still said, "Change your appearance?"

Lingxu didn't waste any words and immediately began demonstrating to Xiao Ce.

At this moment, his character image appeared directly, with his height, weight, and body shape displayed, just like the character customization in a game.

Xiao Ce was making his choice.

Just then, Yin Pan'er, who had been quietly watching from the side, suddenly exclaimed.

"Your Highness, your face..."

Xiao Ce looked at Yin Pan'er and said, "You've changed so quickly?"

There were no mirrors around, but Yin Pan'er pointed to the interface in front of Xiao Ce and said, "It's exactly the same as the one you chose..."

Yin Pan'er began to try to operate it, but touching it had no effect at all.

Obviously, this also has certain limits.

Seeing Xiao Ce seemingly looking for a mirror, Da Lei, standing to the side, was much smarter.

Da Lei took out a small knife and handed it to Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce took the small knife from Da Lei's hand. The knife was polished to a shine, as if it had been polished.

It's perfect for making a mirror.

On the blade, Xiao Ce's own face appeared.

Sure enough, the face on the knife had changed.

"Amazing! It really is amazing... How long does this last?"

However, at this moment, Lingxu said to Xiao Ce, "Master, as long as you wear this smart ring, it will continue indefinitely..."

"However, this projection still has some problems. For example, in close proximity, it can see your real face, which is almost face-to-face."

Xiao Ce then had Yin Pan'er try it out.

Actually, Lingxu was quite precise in his statement; you can't really see the problem in a face-to-face situation.

Yin Pan'er tried it out and then said that this change only occurs after the skin is touched up.

This situation is unlikely to occur in normal social interactions.

After witnessing this scene, Da Lei asked Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, was the same principle behind the way that mad Taoist priest disguised us before...?"

Xiao Ce then asked Lingxu, "Lingxu, can I disguise others?"

Lingxu shook his head.

Then, Xiao Ce recounted how the Mad Taoist had disguised them.

He then asked Lingxu, "Lingxu, do you know how they operate?"

Lingxu shook his head: "There are many ways to do it, but I don't know which one they used."

After hearing Lingxu's words, Xiao Ce directly asked Lingxu, "Lingxu, I have a question for you..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Ling Xu smiled and then asked, "What's the problem?"

Xiao Ce said to Ling Xu, "So, does using this smart ring mean that all of them can have so many functions? Then why did the original owners, and Xiao Dingshan and the others who gave me this ring, keep their faces covered? Why didn't they just change their faces?"

When Lingxu saw Xiao Ce ask this question, he smiled and then said to Xiao Ce, "Master, this ability is not actually the ability of this smart ring."

"As I just mentioned, this smart ring is merely a vessel... It possesses various abilities, but how to utilize these abilities is up to each smart device. I am the master, developed by you, so I know more about them..."

"Most intelligent agents can only do a few things, and they may not be like me."

Upon hearing Lingxu's words, Xiao Ce couldn't suppress the urge to smile.

He was incredibly excited: "I've hit the jackpot... I've hit the jackpot! He's already this amazing with just the first one, and he knows over a thousand... Is this the cheat code of this transmigrator?"

However, this golden touch came far too late.

In fact, when Xiao Ce first transmigrated, he always hoped that he would have some kind of system or cheat code.

But it never happened...

Now, it's really happened.

As Lingxu was about to continue speaking, Xiao Ce thought about listening to him slowly explain these things in the future.

There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

The more important thing at hand is to shut down this Lost Island, or more precisely, to shut down this Star Network Hub.

"Lingxu, after this introduction, will you be following me from now on?"

Lingxu said to Xiao Ce, "Master, you're right. From now on, I'll always be with you. Unless, you lose this smart ring."

"Of course, once you put this ring on, we will intelligently control the tightness to ensure it won't fall off. However, if external forces occur, such as if your hand or finger is cut off, then... it will be lost..."

Lingxu spoke of this in a very understated way.

However, Xiao Ce felt a chill run down his spine as he listened... He then smiled and said, "Okay, of course, such an extreme situation is unlikely to happen."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Ling Xu smiled and then said to Xiao Ce, "Master, not bad..."

Xiao Ce nodded and said to Ling Xu, "Then let's take care of business first. There's no rush for you to introduce me... We can talk about it later when we have a chance..."

Lingxu nodded and said to Xiao Ce, "Master has no problem, so you need to shut down this Star Network Hub now, right?"

Xiao Ce nodded to Ling Xu: "That's right. If I shut it down, wouldn't others still be able to find this place from Lost Island and destroy this Star Network Hub?"

Lingxu shook his head at Xiao Ce: "No, Lost Island is just a shape of the Star Network Hub. The reason it is this shape is because this state and location is when the Star Network Hub's signal is strongest... Because when the Star Network Hub is open, it needs to be in the open air to transmit those signals to the machines in Qing Kui'ang outdoors."

“After it’s turned off, we can change its shape and hide it in the seabed. Without a signal, only the owner knows its location and can turn it on. Once the signal is lost, no one can find it.”
