When Lin Sanjiu thought about it, she found it hard to believe that so many things had happened in a span of 60 seconds. No matter who it was, their attention would spread out like a spider web. They would feel the slightest tremor in the spider web and react quickly. Sometimes, they would even react to several things at the same time.
For example, after she fell to the ground, Lin Sanjiu asked as she quickly got up from the ground. While she was thinking about the spot of light under the car on her left, she noticed a slight movement in Fan He's eyes.
It was a very strange movement.
A normal person's eye sockets would not move, but when they moved their eyeballs, they would move their pupils. However, Fan He's eyes did not move, his eyeballs did not move, and his pupils did not move. Yet, there was something moving inside his pupils, just like how a normal person would move their eyeballs. It was as if there were other eyes in her eyes, and each layer of her eyes could move freely.
How much of her was human? Lin Sanjiu felt goosebumps all over her back.
Regardless of what was going on with Fan He's eyes, Lin Sanjiu realized that the "eyes" in Fan He's eyes were searching for the spot where she had fallen. In other words, Fan He had also thought of this. When Lin Sanjiu fell, the latter might have knocked something out.
She had seen her fall out of the bubble space. Could it be that she had discovered that she had already fallen out of the bubble space?
The "eyes" in Fan He's eyes returned to their original positions. They looked no different from a normal human's eyes. Naturally, there was no deeper layer of pupils in his pupils. She did not find the spot of light that Lin Sanjiu should have dropped. Lin Sanjiu raised her eyebrows and said, "Sorry to disappoint you. I can't follow your footsteps and throw something out."
"Then, let me knock it out," Fan He's tone was flat and cold.
The car was about ten steps away from her, and there was another red car covered in dust between them. Even if it wasn't under such circumstances, it would take a lot of time for a person to find the right angle to squat down and reach under the wheel of the car. Lin Sanjiu's control over her higher consciousness wasn't that precise, so she could only pick up something the size of a spot with her bare hands. When she squatted down and reached for the car, Fan He had a hundred chances to turn her from a money tree into a tree without a tree.
"I can take it out,"
She picked up the paper crane with one hand and raised the other as if she was surrendering. "I can't drop anything if I hit myself, but I can hit that car —"
"Then hurry up!" Fan He urged.
The life mentor hurriedly took a few steps forward. These humanoid items were quite loyal to Lin Sanjiu before they were officially handed over to her. They remembered who their master was, so they tried their best to stay by Lin Sanjiu's side.
Lin Sanjiu stopped beside the red car that was covered in dust. This was the nearest car to her. If she went further, Fan He would definitely be suspicious. From here, she had to find a way to continue walking.
She raised her arm as if she was going to fall on the red car. Her mind was spinning so fast that it was going to smoke.
The [Planar World] was just a few steps away from her, but it felt like a mountain. Of all the places to land, why did it have to land at — huh?
Speaking of which, it was strange. When she fell, the light spot that fell from her body should have fallen beside her. How did it fly so far to the left, and even flew over a car?
She dragged Nan Guiyan out of the hole, and Nan Guiyan immediately disappeared. She fell to the ground … Gravity should have pulled the light to her side. Since it was not beside her, it could only mean that some kind of force had pushed it out. The light spot fell about ten steps away and landed right beside the rear tire of a car.
In that instant, the only force that could have pushed it out was Nan Guiyan.
But even if she figured out that it was Nan Guiyan's doing, so what? Sometimes, the world was just so infuriating. A sudden epiphany at a crucial moment had nothing to do with the situation at hand.
Lin Sanjiu was so frustrated that she almost wanted to rush over. She deliberately bumped her wrist lightly, but the impact was not strong enough, so she didn't hurt anything. She needed to do it again, which bought her a few tenths of a second to think.
"That's not right," Mrs. Manas said, "When you fell out, Nan Guiyan was charging straight ahead. I remember very clearly that it didn't go 50 degrees to the left."
Time was precious, but Lin Sanjiu didn't realize that her subconscious was still dwelling on this problem. Even if Nan Guiyan was charging straight ahead, what did it mean to her?
"This means that it has changed its direction," Mrs. Manas, who was Lin Sanjiu's subconscious image, was not stopped by Lin Sanjiu's thoughts. She continued to ponder this question, "Why would the guiyan change its direction …"
Because it was looking for an exit.
The answer popped up in her mind almost immediately.
The Wild Goose of the South was determined to go to its original home. Most of the time, it would simply drill a hole in the wall of the space. When it could not drill a hole in the space, it would wander around, looking for an exit that could lead it to the next space, just like how it did in the landfill.
But why couldn't it drill a hole in the dimension? This was just an apocalyptic world, and the other dimensions that contained more apocalyptic worlds were stacked on top of each other like the skin of an onion. Or rather, they were like a beehive. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be a problem for Nan Guiyan to drill into the next dimension.
Could it be that this small dimension that contained the shopping mall and the parking lot was an independent dimension like the landfill?
Lin Sanjiu felt that her thoughts were straying further and further away. She couldn't help but touch the hood of the car again. She wasted another few tenths of a second. This time, a light dot fell out. It was her old friend, [A Twinkle in the Sky].
"This is not yours," Lin Sanjiu held it in her other hand and said, "I'm holding my stuff so that your stuff will fall out sooner or later."
"You don't have much time left!" Van He urged again.
"I got it!" Mrs. Manas suddenly screamed, and Lin Sanjiu felt goosebumps all over her body. Mrs. Manas was her own subconscious. The next moment, the answer rushed into her mind like the waves washing the beach.
Regardless of what was going on in this dimension, Nan Guiyan's behavior would not change. Since it couldn't drill out of the hole, it would tirelessly search for the exit. It was precisely because it was searching for the exit that it turned to the left after charging forward for a moment. That was where the [Planar World] fell.
So, the question became: Did Nan Guiyan find its target? Or could it be that at this moment, the invisible creature was still wandering around in circles, looking for an exit?
"Quick, spread your higher consciousness out," Lin Sanjiu ordered. She gritted her teeth and endured the strange feeling that her higher consciousness was almost depleted. Even though she had used up a lot of her higher consciousness, she still had a considerable amount of it left. After she spread her higher consciousness thinly, it covered half of the parking lot. In order not to let Van He notice that something was amiss, she did not sweep her higher consciousness across the parking lot where Van He was.
When she spread her higher consciousness, she had just raised her arm again.
Now, all she had to do was wait.
If Lin Sanjiu's guess was correct, Nan Guiyan was still in this dimension. There was almost no basis for her conjecture. If there was, it would be one thing: Why did no outsider appear during the game, after the game ended, and before the time limit of the money tree expired?
If outsiders couldn't get in and Nan Guiyan couldn't get out … What about her? Could she get out?
Lin Sanjiu felt it the moment the thought popped up in her mind.
There was a large, invisible object hovering in the air above the car. It suddenly charged into the range of her higher consciousness from the other side of the parking lot. It charged past Lin Sanjiu's higher consciousness at an extremely high speed and circled the parking lot a few times in the blink of an eye.
By the time it was about to reach the parking lot for the fourth time, only one or two seconds had passed. Lin Sanjiu made a prompt decision. Using the back cover of the red car, she leaped into the air and headed straight for the car where the [Planar World] was.
Van He, who had been watching her closely, probably thought that she was trying to escape, so he immediately followed her. She moved a split second later than Lin Sanjiu, but both of their feet landed on the ground at the same time. Just when Lin Sanjiu decided to take the risk and crouched down, she saw from the corner of her eyes that Van Wah had also leaned over and extended his arm to her.
"Please, please." Ignoring Van He who was behind her, Lin Sanjiu reached out her hand to touch the light spot next to the rear tire of the car. "Please don't change the route …"
The moment her finger touched the [Planar World], the stubborn Guiyan South charged through the route it had just taken. Right now, Fan He, whom Lin Sanjiu had lured over, was standing right in front of her.
The wind that Nan Guiyan had stirred up was very weak. It was only strong enough to lift her short hair, so it would be hard for anyone to notice it unless it was right in front of her. Therefore, it was already too late when Fan He realized that something invisible was charging at him.
After a muffled thud, Lin Sanjiu turned around with the [Planar World] in her hand. Fan He had already disappeared from her sight. Nan Guiyan had rammed into her, and she was sent flying to the right.
Another speck of light was thrown high into the air.
"Thank you," Lin Sanjiu said in her heart. She returned the [Planar World] back to her body and leaped into the air. She extended her right arm and caught the third light spot that had fallen from Fan He's body.
She was a rather powerful posthuman who could chase after Silvan. Who would have thought that she would be so unlucky today?
Lin Sanjiu did not want to stay any longer. She seized the moment when Nan Guiyan knocked Fan He away to run away. Even though she had no idea why Nan Guiyan was trapped in this parking lot, the volunteer had told her that they should run out of the money tree as soon as possible and hide in the city. In other words, she should not be trapped here.
She did not dare to hold back, so she ran as fast as she could toward the street in the distance. She was so fast that she blurred the scenery in her peripheral vision.
However, such a fast speed was not enough sometimes.
"Oh my god!" Mrs. Manas screamed, "Nan Guiyan is coming for us!"
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat. She could also feel an invisible object pouncing on her from behind. For some reason, Nanguiyan had stopped circling the parking lot like before. She felt as if she was going to break her spine at any moment. Behind Guiyan, Fan He scrambled to his feet and chased after it.
Lin Sanjiu cursed under her breath. She finally understood what was going on.
"So, when a player goes out, they open an entrance?"
