Lin Sanjiu's aircraft was still parked at the parking lot of Fanjia City. Originally, it was for Octocephalus to rest. Now that Fanjia City had been sealed off, she couldn't just walk over and take the aircraft away. She could only leave it there for the time being to avoid attracting the attention of the Shadow Palace.
Without the aircraft and its GPS, Lin Sanjiu could only rely on her memory to locate Exodus. After getting lost four times in a row and getting lost for half a day, she finally realized how unreliable human memory was. Cyrus had hired an artificer to dissect items by the day. After following them for two to three days without doing anything, Cyrus finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Did you lose your airship?" he pointed out as calmly as he could, "We are taking care of the artificer."
"No, no," Lin Sanjiu's forehead was beaded with sweat, "I definitely didn't lose it … Let me try again."
After she opened the map again, Cyrus looked at her suspiciously for a while. Obviously, he wasn't confident in Lin Sanjiu's performance. He took out his communicator.
"I better contact Octocephalus," he mumbled, "Perhaps Fanjia City has been unsealed …"
Lin Sanjiu replied unabashedly, "That's … that's a backup plan."
Actually, even if they were unsealed, it wasn't appropriate for them to show their faces in Fanjia City. After all, they were both targets of the Shadow Palace. When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, she continued staring at the map.
Octocephalus responded very quickly. When they heard his voice, both of them were startled.
"It hasn't been unsealed," he said in a low and heavy voice, as if his voice would break at any moment. "I've tried to go out … But the exit and the parking lot are all sealed by the alternate dimension. It's been so many days, and no one has come in or out … I don't know if they have found me or not. But even if they found out that there's only one posthuman left in the city, they wouldn't care. I haven't seen a single living person for the past few days, and no one has come to catch me. "
Lin Sanjiu couldn't imagine how it felt to be trapped alone in an empty city, especially when it was an empty city filled with family and friends. She could still remember when she walked through the streets of Fan Jia City. The river of people, vitality, and laughter were like the prelude to a nightmare when compared to the deathly stillness behind Ba Tou De's back.
"That means your spaceship is also trapped in the alternate dimension. If they don't leave, they won't be able to retrieve it." Cyrus rubbed his forehead after he heard the message. "Indeed, the organization has a lot of spatial items. It's not a problem for them to seal off a city …"
Perhaps the Eight-Headed Serpent was too eager to talk to someone. After a while, he sent another message.
"Can you tell me more about what happened after you entered the factory? Did I miss any details? " He pleaded, "You know my ability. Maybe I can find some clues …"
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and realized that she had left out some details when she retold the story to him.
"I told you before, I entered the warehouse with some ordinary people who won the instance dungeon, right? I don't think I told you that we won the same instance dungeon. "
Lin Sanjiu told him about the battle for the right to speak and the nature of the other pocket dimensions in detail. This time, she even told him how she managed to escape. "It's all thanks to that temporary ability that I survived. Since I didn't know when it would disappear, after Cyrus connected me to my body, I quickly sorted out my ability and recovered it."
Speaking of which, it was quite a coincidence. Almost as soon as she recovered [A Twinkle in the Sky], [Michelangelo] disappeared from her body. Lin Sanjiu did not know whether the effect of the temporary ability was canceled after the old woman had freed her hands.
"It's rare to find a Rare ability that suits you so well," Mrs. Manas sighed and added, "But it's temporary."
At least, she still retained the traits that made her more convincing. However, when she faced a posthuman, her advantage was not as obvious as when she faced a normal person. It was as if a posthuman had a stronger resistance.
After she sent the message back, Ba Tou De did not reply for a long time. Perhaps, he was searching for information based on the details she provided.
"Come to think of it …"
While Lin Sanjiu was fiddling with the aerial chart system, Cyrus, who was sitting beside her, said, "You haven't had the time to see the old lady you put away, right?"
"Half of it is because I didn't have enough time," Lin Sanjiu pointed at the aerial chart in front of her. After she realized that she had gone the wrong way the first time, she had focused all her attention on finding Exodus. "The other half is because I'm a little worried."
"Worried about what?"
Lin Sanjiu sighed. "That's a lot. I've explained it to you, right? The way I stored the old woman last time was different from this time … "
Cyrus nodded. Lin Sanjiu had told Cyrus everything she knew about the old lady during the two to three days she was looking for Exodus. Although Cyrus didn't have Higher Consciousness, he had met many Higher Consciousness Users in the organization, so he understood everything very quickly. He even told Lin Sanjiu a few ways to use Higher Consciousness that she had never heard of before.
"First of all, I can't use the 'seed' to erase the characteristics of the old lady's ability. I can only leave her alone and let her stay in the 'seed'. Otherwise, what should I do with Magus? I'm still hoping that I can use this old lady to restore Magus after I find her. "
If the mission to save Magus was a far-fetched dream in the past, now, the possibility of it coming true had increased by half. Next, as long as she could find Qing Jiuliu, she would be able to find the whereabouts of Magus' body. When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, she felt that the shadow that had been lingering in the corner of her mind was slowly dissipating.
"But the old lady is someone's Higher Consciousness … I'm in the same world as the owner of that ability. What if I summon the old lady and attract him here? That's the first thing that worries me. "
She circled around the "Summit of the Old Sea" in the aeronautical chart system and searched for the possible location of Exodus based on her memory. "Also, even if the owner of the ability is too far away and can't make it here, what if the old lady can still operate on her own and attack us? I've captured her once, so she won't let me get close to her the next time … If we really fight, I'm afraid we'll all be in big trouble. "
Lin Sanjiu also had a headache thinking about how to make the old lady work for her. No matter how she thought about it, Lin Sanjiu didn't think it was safe, so she decided not to think about it anymore. After all, the old lady couldn't run away in the 'seed'. It wouldn't be too late to think about it after she found Magus' body.
When Lin Sanjiu felt that she was in the right place this time, Cyrus piloted the aircraft and flew to the location that she had marked in the aeronautical chart system. Before he set sail, he reminded her, "If you find the wrong place again, you can negotiate with the Disintegrator Blacksmith."
"Actually, there are ways to circumvent your two concerns," Cyrus said as he steered the aircraft. As Cyrus drove, he said, "Didn't your friend use a cup-shaped object to trap Pengping inside? If you replace the cup-shaped object with an alternate dimension, you can solve both of your concerns. The only problem is, if she can still attack on her own, you won't be able to keep her in the 'seed' anymore. "
Mrs. Manas was very excited at the mention of the old lady. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't have a physical body, Lin Sanjiu was sure that she could hear the old lady's footsteps in her mind.
"If I can absorb that old lady," Mrs. Manas mumbled as if she was dreaming, "Not only will I gain a large amount of Higher Consciousness … I'll also gain the structure, the texture, the way to use it … Oh my god, I'll reach heaven in a single bound …"
The voice in Lin Sanjiu's mind continued to mumble and Cyrus's idle chatter.
Just when the Disintegrator Blacksmith popped his head over to ask if Lin Sanjiu had arrived, the communicator on the table next to Lin Sanjiu finally rang again.
This time, the Eight-Headed Druid's voice sounded like it had been injected with a lot of life force.
"Just now, you said that some people gained the power to convince others after they left the factory, right?"
He pondered for a moment before he continued, "I've analyzed the information flow for the past six months and discovered one thing. These 'convincing' people have been popping up in the Twelve Worlds Centrum since half a year ago … The reason why no one noticed them was because they were all ordinary people. News about them only circulated among a small group of ordinary people, so it was hard for posthumans to notice them. However, there were only a few of them in the past, so they didn't have much influence. I suspect that before they attacked Fanjia City, they had done the same thing a few times with a small group of people … as practice. If that's the case, I'm afraid that Fanjia City won't be their last stop. "
He paused for a moment before he continued, "No matter what they want to do … this is just the beginning of their plan."
— — Digression — —
I've read some of the horror stories recommended by everyone. For example, Zhou Dedong. The good thing about his writing is that his writing is smooth, but the bad thing is that he's not scary … If his writing isn't smooth, it's hard for me to read. Even if the story is good, I can't focus on the story. My standard for 'not smooth' is probably the average standard for a male. I've finished reading Stephen King's first short story. It's not scary at all.
I don't think I have a high 'scary' point … What's going on? There are still a lot of stories recommended by everyone that I haven't read yet. I'm going to go through them one by one and report to you guys after I'm done.
