The familiar environment welcomed him.
Disciples greeted him with respect, stepping aside as he passed. Han Yu did not stop. His destination was clear.
Elder Jurhanzi.
The old man's workshop was as chaotic as ever. Various puppet components lay scattered across tables, half assembled constructs stood in corners, and faint mechanical sounds filled the air.
When Han Yu entered, the elder looked up immediately.
"Ju Fan!" he said with a grin. "You've come at a good time. I just finished a new joint articulation system. Come, come, you must see!"
Han Yu raised a hand slightly.
"I brought something," he said.
Jurhanzi paused.
His eyes lit up instantly.
"Oh?" he leaned forward. "Jiangshi?"
Han Yu nodded.
The elder clapped his hands once.
"Good! I was wondering when you would show me something. With your progress in puppets, I expect nothing less than something impressive."
Han Yu said nothing.
He simply released the first Jiangshi.
The Green Class unit.
