Well, this makes things awkward.
I suppose since they had already run and chased after us, and realized they were still trapped, they went back to their hibernation. Since we didn't trigger anything this time to wake them up, they remained asleep.
...
Wait, that doesn't sound right.
We killed one of them, shouldn't they have realized it and woken up?
I couldn't relay the thought to Tao Yang and the Blue Sun in fear of waking up some of the rakshasa.
So I had to theorize it myself.
Thinking about it, the way we killed the Raksahsa was different. It wasn't direct, and I used poison. Since there was still some poison hanging in the air from the last time we came here... the rakshasa probably deduced that one of them died to that.
Not to mention the kill was stealthy and didn't bring much noise nor caught anything's attention.
Before I could even finish the though, something heavy took a step in front of me.
I didn't move.
But I realized what it was from the fact that it only had two feet. It was a roaming Silver Rakshasa. They didn't sleep like the rest I guess.
Tao Yang and the Blue Sun noticed it too, but they too didn't act, thankfully.
The Silver Raksahsa leaned forward, its ugly mouth was right up my face, and I was sure that if I was using my real body, I'd both be sliced in half and be disgusted to death from the stench of his breath.
The rakshasa took a could strong sniffs through his nose-less nostrils against the hard cold steel of the puppet I was controlling.
I pried open the tip of the Vanguard's index finger, revealing a small tube that I can channel Qi from the reactor inside the Vanguard, and shape it into whatever form I want. Thanks to it having an artificial Meridian, it was easily able to control and handle simple laws and apply them.
So, I began carving into the forearm of the spare gunner arm, a simple set of letters to make words and sentences. Basically, a keyboard.
As for wiring, I had to rip apart several other spare pieces to extract metallic and brass connectors that I soon carved and attached into the arm.
After half an hour or so, I managed to finalize the keyboard layout on the forearm.
"Give me your arm," I said to the Blue Sun.
And she did as asked. I twisted and turned a few bits and the entire arm from the shoulder popped off cleanly. I then replaced it with the newly modified arm.
"What is this?" the Blue Sun asked.
"Try and press some of the carved letters."
She did and writing began appearing on both her visual display and ours.
"Do you also see what I'm doing?" she asked.
"Yes, we'll use this slightly primitive method to converse and relay information, because we'll need that as we're crossing the area up ahead." I explained.
"Impressive," she said. "Quite the quick thinker and innovator, this can actually be used to send immediate and direct messages across vast distances if properly used. This will be even faster than flying jades..." she began thinking of how to create internet...
I couldn't even stop her, so I had to work on both mine and Tao Yang's arms.
Two hours later, I had exhausted about ten percent of my puppet's internal Qi due to how delicate and focused the work I did was. But, it was worth it, now we have a way to communicate.
I should have created a radio communication... wireless and soundless, or at least something that can be expressed directly into one's mind instead of it being projected as sound. Because they could easily hear us.
