Illusions were a very convenient method.
In the eyes of the fatigued young man, everything in the cargo hold of the airship was probably fine. There were no steel frames that had been cut by the skeletal wings, and there were no dents on the floor that had been caused by the battle. Hence, he did not even bat an eyelid. After all the passengers had left the airship, he closed the door with a loud bang.
The next second, the airship that was the size of a square let out a thunderous roar. A violent gust of air gushed out from the airship and lifted it up. After a few minutes, the airship gradually became smaller in Lin Sanjiu's field of vision.
When the airship completely disappeared from the sky, the waves that had been stirred up by the gust of air crashed back into the sea. Almost ten thousand tons of seawater condensed into a high wall in the air before crashing down the cliff at an alarming speed, causing the surface of the sea to tremble. Even though the small tsunami did not touch the cliff, it was still powerful enough to instantly soak everything on the cliff. Of course, that included Lin Sanjiu and the group of "passengers" on the other side of the cliff.
The young man probably thought that since the entire cliff was going to be soaked, there was no need to remind them to be careful of the seawater.
Even though Lin Sanjiu's clothes were drenched in an instant and she could still feel the faint pain from being hit by the seawater, she still felt a little better after she wiped the water off her face.
At least, she and these creatures were separated from the rest of the world by the endless ocean.
"Is this the transit station?" Walter — Lin Sanjiu habitually thought of this name — looked around. It was hard to tell if his tone was praising or sarcastic, "Don't be fooled by the messy appearance. This world is actually quite orderly."
Lin Sanjiu pursed her lips. She did not say anything nor did she move.
She would feel uncomfortable if she looked at "Walter's" smile for even a second longer.
After interacting with "Walter" for less than a minute, Lin Sanjiu's human instincts told her that Soulsqn did not understand the meaning of a human's smile.
Soulsqn kept smiling.
When Soulsqn's smile was soaked by the seawater, but it did not move an inch, the warm and cheerful feeling gradually turned into a cold and creepy feeling.
"So, you guys don't like water on your face," Soulsqn observed Lin Sanjiu. She made a conclusion, but the corners of her mouth were still raised high. As she raised her hand, the group of Souls behind her followed suit and wiped the water off their faces.
"Why are they learning from humans?"
Suppressing the discomfort in her heart, Lin Sanjiu quickly scanned her surroundings. The cliff, which was used as a transit station, was not very big. The rocks were uneven, and a few clumps of dark green grass grew out from the cracks in the rocks. At the far end of the cliff stood a small wooden house, unknown to what purpose it served, due to the long years of damp air. Due to the humidity, the wood was covered with a layer of mushrooms.
She tried her best to memorize what she saw. With her Higher Consciousness, she knew that what she was seeing now was reality, but it would be hard to tell if it would be the same after a while.
After all, their opponent was the queen of a race … Lin Sanjiu didn't think that the queen was on the same level as AYU.
Soulsqn did not seem to be in a hurry to put on Lin Sanjiu. In fact, she showed an unusual interest in this "leather coat".
"Ever since Red Nautilus was sunk, we have been hibernating and recuperating," Soulsqn tilted her head and looked at the skeletal wings on Lin Sanjiu's back. Suddenly, she said, "However, this is the first time I've seen a human who can change her appearance and grow such a powerful weapon on her body. You are a Growth-type, and you have Variable Genes … "
Lin Sanjiu didn't expect Soulsqn to come to such a conclusion in just a few minutes. He could actually be so accurate.
Although the smile on his face did not change, his voice suddenly trembled, as if he was very excited. "… Do you know what this means? After I devour your insides, I might be able to use the same method you used to form bone wings to create the reproductive system of our Soul Race … Ah, this corpse sac is too perfect. "
He paused for a moment. Then, AYU, who was behind him, seemed to have heard something. She lowered her head and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty."
Instead of saying that Soulsqn was talking to Lin Sanjiu, it was more like she was talking to herself. Even if Lin Sanjiu did not reply to her, she did not mind. "Not to mention. Ever since you came to this world, you've been dealing with our Soul Race … In your words, this should be called fate. "
"Wait a minute, how did you —" Lin Sanjiu froze.
"You want to ask me what happened before you boarded the ship? Or do you want to know how I know? "Soulsqn stared at her through Walter's eyes.
"Both."
"Oh. So you still don't understand. The one who cheated you of your book was a Soul from my race. I gave it a mission to collect powerful items from humans. However, that book was a little strange. It actually activated on its own and forced it to escape from the corpse sac … After that, you met that kid called Sajee. "
For some reason, Soulsqn ignored the details when she reached this point. Instead, she swept her gaze across the other Souls standing behind her with an unchanging smile. Other than a half-melted Redhead Ol 'Jack, the rest of the Souls looked like a group of normal humans.
"As for how I know … It's because I'm the queen. I know the location, condition, life and death of every Soul in my race, "Soulsqn said with a smile.
Just as Soulsqn finished her last word, a shadow suddenly leaped from behind Soulsqn to the other side. Her movement was so fast that her green dress fluttered in the wind. In the blink of an eye, the other two shadows also pounced on the first shadow. In an instant, the green shadow was engulfed by them.
When Lin Sanjiu saw that one of the shadows was the strange-looking "Redhead Ol 'Jack," her body reacted faster than her brain. Her muscles quivered in agitation. Lin Sanjiu pushed off the ground and bent her back. Using the momentum, she leaped forward with her skeletal wings. Before Soulsqn could react, Lin Sanjiu's bone dagger had already pierced Redhead Ol 'Jack's chin.
With a sharp hiss, a lump of flesh with four short limbs broke free from Redhead Ol 'Jack's corpse sac and leaped into AYU's arms. Still hanging from the corpse's neck, Lin Sanjiu swung her bone dagger and struck the other shadow far away. It seemed to be the nameless man.
Even though Lin Sanjiu managed to push back two people in an instant, Soulsqn's attack had already reached her feet. Lin Sanjiu hastily rolled in the air. With a curl of her arms, her two bony wings spread out horizontally. Only then did she fall back onto the wet rocks. However, the purpose of her attack had finally been achieved.
Jade panted heavily in Lin Sanjiu's arms. Only then did she let out an "Ah!" she exclaimed.
"That scared me to death. So, it knew …" Her skin, which was exposed from her dress, was strangely pale. There was not a single trace of blood in it. Her skin was as cold as it looked. However, when Lin Sanjiu pressed her wrist suspiciously, Lin Sanjiu's eyes widened. Her strong pulse had already explained everything.
Her pink lipstick had been washed away by the seawater, revealing her pale skin underneath. Lin Sanjiu didn't know whether it was because of the cold or fear, but she was trembling all over.
"You didn't die!" Lin Sanjiu's heart pounded, "What happened? Why didn't you save —"
"I almost died too!" Jade suddenly raised her voice and shouted. Then, as if all the energy in her body had left her, her voice became weak again. She waved her hand at Lin Sanjiu, "It was already too late when I returned to Area R … I thought I could deceive them by pretending to be them, but …"
"But you didn't expect me to know all along?" Soulsqn walked over slowly. It was only then that Lin Sanjiu saw clearly what had attacked her from behind.
It was Reef Cliff.
As if it wasn't satisfied with the group of visitors, the entire patch of rock where Lin Sanjiu was just now was squeezed and lifted up. They were lifted up by the pressure and smashed heavily into the crevice below. If Lin Sanjiu had reacted a few milliseconds slower, both she and Jade would have been deformed by the rock. Of course, that didn't stop Soulsqn from wearing Lin Sanjiu.
"You are quite smart and lucky," Soulsqn nodded at Jade as if she was praising her. "When you killed the Soul that was supposed to wear you, I didn't have time to care about you. Now that I think about it, it's quite interesting … Besides, a smart corpse sac is always better than a stupid one. Now that I think about it, it's really strange. After all, even the brain has been sucked out. You would think that it's just a layer of skin and there shouldn't be any difference. "
Lin Sanjiu instantly understood.
If Jade had caused a commotion on the airship and attracted more humans, it would have been troublesome. Therefore, Soulsqn deliberately let Lin Sanjiu think that she had successfully deceived her and lured her off the airship. Then, she wanted the Soul in Redhead Ol 'Jack's corpse sac to consume her.
Lin Sanjiu's gaze fell on the disgusting thing in AYU's arms.
Perhaps it was because of the appearance of the Soul, even though Lin Sanjiu knew that this was a highly intelligent race, she didn't pay much attention to it. It was only now that Lin Sanjiu realized it. The intelligence of this race wasn't inferior to that of humans.
Jade's cold fingers grabbed Lin Sanjiu's elbow. Jade's panicked voice rang out, "What should we do now?"
"I suggest that you stop struggling," Soulsqn's smile seemed to be carved into her muscles. She raised one of her hands and a huge wave suddenly rose from the edge of the cliff. It rushed towards Lin Sanjiu with a huge force. Both of them were caught off guard and fell to the ground. However, the huge wave seemed to have eyes of its own. It avoided Soulsqn and only splashed Walter's pants.
"I'm different from my race. They can only create illusions, but I can create reality. "
