Chapter 1464 - 438: Exit Barrier

Chapter 1464: Chapter 438: Exit Barrier

The novel excerpt translated into English is as follows:

This thing can actually speak by itself and display images?

Just like the ’Memory Stone’?

East Sea actually hasn’t used a smartphone much either—back when he was in this world before, he was resting and cultivating in the Li Huo Candle.

He just happened to miss the technological boom of those decades.

The method of using a smartphone, he learned when he returned to the Domain Realm and the Saint, bored, taught him how to play with it.

Nowadays, East Sea can at least turn it on, knows how to make a call—though he’s never actually made one.

Additionally, he knows how to play some downloaded videos and music from the local files on the phone.

Hmm, the old lady’s phone is a typical model for seniors; it runs on Android, doesn’t have much memory, and the old lady just randomly downloaded a few songs.

After turning it on, even though we’re deep in the mountains, the smartphone still connects to the signal.

So even now, despite being in the mountains, there should be a signal base station nearby!

We can’t deny that Dragon Country’s infrastructure is the best in the world.

"This thing costs money to use in this world, called something like ’phone bills.’ Each person has a unique number that doesn’t repeat with anyone else.

But you need to regularly pay ’phone bills’ to use your own number.

Luckily, Ancestor Saint has money, and before she left, she said there’s still more than twenty thousand of the local currency saved for phone bills. Otherwise, if the account doesn’t have money, the smartphone is useless."

Zhan Li listened, understanding only partially, yet instinctively nodded.

After fiddling with the phone for a bit, East Sea—the old lady indeed trusts East Sea—revealed the unlock password.

Once East Sea unlocked it, he managed to open the contacts.

"The Saint asked me to bring you to this world to meet someone, so I’m going to call that guy now."

East Sea spoke with full confidence: "There’s also something in this smartphone called a navigation map. Once I contact that guy and open navigation, it can tell him our exact location, and then we wait here for a day or half a day, and he can come to pick us up."

After saying that, East Sea found the name marked as "Good Grandson" in the contacts and pressed it.

"..."

"..."

"..."

After all, it’s a senior phone—it may not excel in other areas, but the speaker is incredibly loud!

Even without using the loudspeaker, the ringtone sound spreads widely.

Listening to that string of music, after a while, a human voice prompt finally appeared.

However...

"...The number you are calling is temporarily unreachable..."

East Sea and Zhan Li exchanged a glance.

Their eyes widened, faces full of confusion.

East Sea coughed: "So, this means..."

Zhan Li gave a wry smile and waved her hands.

Even though I don’t know much about smartphones, I can at least understand human speech!

The four words ’unable to connect,’ aren’t something I couldn’t comprehend.

East Sea frowned, hung up, and repeatedly dialed three or four times.

But each time ended with the same ’unable to connect’ prompt.

What he didn’t know was that at this very moment, that ’Good Grandson’ was trekking deep in the Sahara Desert of North Africa!

Dragon Country Mobile doesn’t have any signal over there.

Chen Yan only had a satellite phone with him.

·

Zhan Li pursed her lips—while she couldn’t speak right now, it was hard to express anything further, especially as East Sea’s expression had already grown somewhat awkward.

"That kid might be... Hmm, also not sure why it’s unreachable, maybe it’s poor signal.

For now, let’s head out of these mountains ourselves and find a place to settle down outside."

East Sea took a deep breath, fiddled with the phone again, and opened up a navigation map app.

"This thing, people in this world call it GPS, once opened; it has navigation maps that show our location along with all the surrounding maps!"

Saying that, East Sea laughed: "Look! It’s open!! The small icon here is where we are now!

Let me see..."

After messing around a bit more, he said confidently: "Found it! We’re here, we head south, and there’s a road to the south!"

Zhan Li cautiously watched this Lord Sword Master, unable to hold back making a gesture indicating: how long to walk?

East Sea glanced at Zhan Li: "Not sure how far, but it’s to the south anyway, just walk south, and we’ll see it.

When we reach the road, we can find a car to take us. Hmm, a car is the kind of iron box that Domain Realm People say can fly speedily.

Hmm, and pay someone a bit of money.

The smartphone can make payments; I know all the passwords for Ancestor’s payment app."

After completing his sentence, East Sea pointed his finger: "Head south!"
