Chapter 706: 706 BUG Tester
Although Purah Meow stated that she had already passed the safety tests using Guardians and experimental mice, and had even personally experienced it herself, Sherwin still decided to conduct another round of testing.
Firstly, his body size was much larger than the Felynes, so perhaps the situation would be different.
Secondly, it was to test whether the active map on the Sheikah Slate worked well.
Lastly, Purah Meow previous tests were only short-distance teleports within her own laboratory, and Sherwin felt it would be better to perform a few extreme tests.
"In addition, after I pass the test, it would be best to have Touma test it as well."
Sherwin thought for a moment and suggested further, "If even Touma doesn’t encounter any problems during use, then this thing is absolutely safe enough."
"Hey! Mr. Kamijou is right next to you! I can hear what you’re saying, meow!"
∑(=ΦДΦ=)
However, neither Sherwin nor Purah Meow paid him any attention. Little Odelia nodded thoughtfully,
"That true, usually Haibara uses Touma to test medicines, I forgot there was also this method meow..."
"Hey! Is anyone listening, meow?!"
The little cow cat cupped his paws around his mouth and shouted loudly.
As a result, he still received no response. Instead, Haibara Meow, who arrived late from Weatheria, also chimed in,
"Anyway, Brother Touma has eight lives, so even if something goes wrong by some chance, there won’t be too much of a loss.
Besides, I’ve experimented with other animals that ate the Yamata fruit, and as long as all eight heads aren’t consumed all at once, the severed heads can still grow back meow."
(=`=)
"Too much! This is too much, meow!"
(=`Д=)
The consistently ignored Touma Meow waved his arms and charged toward Sherwin, still shouting at the top of his lungs, "Mr. Kamijou life matters too, meow!"
And then...
His left foot tripped over his right foot, and with a "splat," he faceplanted right onto the deck.
"Alright, alright~ Don’t I still have to do the test before you anyway?"
Seeing that he had teased him enough, Sherwin then stepped forward to pick Touma Meow up, gently scratching his cheeks while coaxing him.
Purah Meow also came forward to pat his arm and said, "If you’re not willing, Touma, then forget it. We were just joking just now, meow~ Check-it~"
(ゝω)~☆
"I... I’m not exactly unwilling either..." Touma Meow was naturally someone who responded to gentle treatment rather than coercion.
As soon as Sherwin and Purah Meow spoke softly, he immediately scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said on his own initiative,
"I’ll have to use this device in the future anyway, so I have to try it sooner or later, meow."
In fact, this was also the main reason why Sherwin had proposed letting Touma Meow participate in the test...
Although he felt that with Touma Meow luck, it was highly likely that a problem would only arise at a critical moment, there was no way to prevent that kind of thing. He could only try his best to reduce the possibility first.
After fooling around for a bit, Sherwin took the Sheikah Slate handed to him by Purah Meow and began to operate it.
For Sherwin, who had years of experience using smartphones, this completely touch-screen operation method of the Sheikah Slate was not unfamiliar to him.
He was basically able to adapt to it fully as soon as he got it in his hands.
After proficiently swiping and clicking on the screen for quite a while, Sherwin also fully understood the functions of this Sheikah Slate.
Overall, its effects were not much different from the Sheikah Slate in the game. Functions like displaying the locations of all members and setting up waypoints were all fully present...
Of course, those functions from the game like producing bombs and stasis were not available. Other than that, there was no map displayed on it either, only the most basic grid lines.
At the same time, a white glowing circle was used on it to mark out the entire range of the spatial field.
"I plan to import the map from your Hunter manual later, so it just like this for now, meow."
Purah Meow explained from the side, "As for our positioning, it utilizes Vivre Card technology. It still relatively precise within a one-kilometer range, but once it exceeds one kilometer, the positioning becomes a bit blurry. However, the general direction is still correct, meow~ Check-it!"
Sherwin dragged the screen directly to the outermost edge of the space field, tapped twice on the edge of that white halo to set a waypoint, and then pressed the only button on the Sheikah Slate...
The next second, Sherwin felt his body growing lighter and lighter, and a blue-and-white light lit up on his body.
After a bout of dizziness, Sherwin figure appeared in an empty space high in the sky...
Damn it! So the altitude is fixed?! Sherwin instantly figured out what was going on—the Dodo Advance was currently floating in the sky!
Fortunately, falling from a high altitude wasn’t exactly dangerous for Sherwin. Although his physical strength wasn’t as great as Kaido, falling from this height wouldn’t kill him, and besides, it wasn’t like he didn’t know how to "fly."
Quickly adjusting his balance in mid-air, Sherwin used the technique of the Sky Walk, landing lightly from the sky onto the surface of the sea.
Well, my luck really is quite ordinary...
Looking at the vast, open sea around him with absolutely nowhere to step, Sherwin curled his lips speechlessly.
Then he glanced at the Sheikah Slate in his hand and noticed that his current location was slightly offset from the waypoint he had initially set.
It a good thing I didn’t let Touma Meow test it first, otherwise he would have a high probability of falling into the sea.
Sherwin didn’t rush to go back. Instead, he quickly dragged the map to the opposite end of the space field, furthest away from himself, set a waypoint, and activated the teleportation once again.
Since it was a test, both the maximum distance and the maximum frequency needed to be thoroughly tested.
Blue lines emerged from the air, quickly sketching a humanoid shape on Dodo Advance deck.
Following that, the light on the blue lines forming the humanoid shape grew brighter and brighter. After an instantaneous flash, a completely unharmed Hunter appeared before everyone.
Unlike teleporting to other places, Dodo Advance had a space field generator for positioning, which finally prevented Sherwin from teleporting to a position of equal height and instead brought him directly back to the ship.
"Brother Sherwin! Is space teleportation fun meow?"
(=ω=)
Klee Meow pounced forward immediately, asking excitedly while patting all over Sherwin with her little paws.
Purah Meow was only half a step behind Klee Meow, tugging at Sherwin trouser leg and looking up expectantly to ask, "How is it? How is it? Is the space teleportation device I made useful meow?"
(=ω=)
Sherwin first picked the troublesome little ragdoll off his body, and then explained all the situations he had encountered to Purah Meow.
First, of course, was the need to add the Z-axis coordinates. Although the Felynes didn’t need to worry about being teleported into the sky while wearing combat suits, there was still the possibility of being teleported into the sea or into the dirt.
Secondly, the accuracy of long-distance teleportation was slightly poor. This was a minor issue, however, since the deviation was within an acceptable range even when teleporting the maximum distance from one end of the space field to the other.
The last problem was that after teleporting several times in a row, the landing point would become less and less precise, even if the teleportation distance was only about a hundred meters.
"Then does that mean Klee can’t play with it Meow?"
(=`3=)
After listening to Sherwin feedback, before Purah Meow could even speak, the little ragdoll pouted unhappily.
"It fine, little sister Klee can take it to play with first, I’ll just make a new one Meow~ Check-it!"
(ゝω)~☆
Purah Meow stuffed the Sheikah Slate into Klee Meow arms, and then trotted eagerly into her laboratory to tinker with a new version of the Sheikah Slate.
"Ya~ hoo—!"
The moment the little ragdoll got the Sheikah Slate, she quickly tapped it twice, and then turned into a blue light and vanished from the deck.
A few minutes later, Klee Meow, covered in dust, reappeared on the deck of the Dodo Advance.
"Brother Sherwin~ Klee found this Meow!"
(=`=)
Holding up a worn-out treasure chest, the little ragdoll skipped and hopped over to Sherwin.
