The female four-eyed "person" in the storeroom couldn't help but reveal a look of fear when she saw the two kidnappers who had returned.
At this time, Luo Luo also noticed something strange. Although the guy they were looking for was also trembling with the other women, there was not much fear in his eyes. Instead, there was a little curiosity.
There was only one explanation for such a situation.
— This guy knew what was going on in this world and he wasn't afraid of death because he knew that death was only the beginning of a new cycle.
Since the two had found the person they were looking for, Rob removed the disguise of the brooch and restored his original appearance.
The good news was that the other party wasn't like the other four-eyed "people" who wanted to kill them the moment they saw their "strange" appearance. Instead, he revealed great interest.
His gaze moved back and forth between the two, but there wasn't any malice in it. It was more like the curiosity of a researcher.
But now, a more serious problem was placed in front of them.
This was the first encounter between two civilizations that had been separated by tens of thousands of years. The things left behind by the four-eyed "people" had been lost in the long river of history, except for the underground cities that were scattered all over the world. Under such circumstances, how were they going to communicate?
At the next moment, the future Supreme Magus, Your Honor, gave his answer.
Rob opened his mouth and produced a few strange syllables from his throat. The sound was so strange that it sounded like a knife scraping against a rusty copper pipe. It made one's chest feel tight and gave them goosebumps.
Without a doubt, this wasn't the language of humans, dwarves, elves, or any other intelligent races in the Dawn Continent. Lolo had heard the lecture of the four-eyed "people" on the city wall, so this obviously wasn't the language of the four-eyed "people" either.
However, the eyes of the guy in the storeroom lit up when he heard these strange syllables.
After a few moments, he also opened his mouth and spat out a few similar syllables.
Luo Bu pondered for a while and then asked again. The two of them, separated by tens of thousands of years, communicated in this strange syllable.
Luo Luo discovered that this method of speaking consumed a lot of energy, especially for Rob. He would usually stop to catch his breath after seven to eight syllables, which surprised the girl greatly. Even though he had lost his magic, he still had the skills of a Grade 1 Swordsman, yet he didn't even have the energy to speak.
In fact, the future Supreme Magus, Your Honor, was also very grateful for Lolo's training. If it weren't for the body of a professional, he probably wouldn't have been able to speak those strange syllables.
However, the girl was worried that they wouldn't be able to communicate much with their snail-like speaking speed. In just a short while, the huge whirlpool above the city had expanded and the black death aura was about to overflow. At this rate, the entire city would be engulfed in death aura in five minutes.
Just as Lolo was about to remind the two of them, the four-eyed guy in the storeroom waved at her.
The girl raised her eyebrows and looked at Luo Bu, who nodded his head.
So Luo Luo walked over, and the four-eyed "man" smiled at her. A word that sounded like "Matata" popped out of his mouth. Luo Luo noticed that this time, it was not the strange syllables from before.
"That's his name. You can call him that." Rob acted as a temporary translator, but he seemed to be very tired. After he finished speaking, he sat on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.
Matata chased his harem out of the room and found an unknown instrument out of nowhere. He rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Huh?" Lolo was confused. "What … What is he doing?"
"Don't be nervous. I've told you before, right? Their civilization is much more advanced than ours. Just because we can't solve your problem doesn't mean that they can't. I've told Matata about your condition. He has a few guesses and needs to do a checkup on you first."
"Check? Now?! Err, I don't know if you guys have noticed that the death aura outside is about to fall. "
"Matata said that there's something like a magic circle under the city. This is the last resort of the four-eyed guy's civilization. It can release an air defense shield. So, to be exact, we have half a magic hour."
"Wait, how does he know how long the air defense shield can last?"
"Because he has experienced this day many times. Our previous guess was right. This is a world that only exists for one day. When the core of this world, which is Matata, is destroyed, this world will restart, and in this world, only he will be able to retain the memories of every time."
"So it's like he's trapped in the same day forever?" Lolo was stunned. "How did he survive for the past tens of thousands of years?"
"It's not that exaggerated. Usually, this world is in a deep sleep. Only when the mechanism on the stone pillar is triggered will it open. The memory of sleeping doesn't exist for them. He just found out that the four-eyed guy's civilization is gone and he's just a spiritual entity. Heh, let's talk about the details after we get out of here. Since we still have time, let him check on you first."
"Will it … hurt?"
"No, I won't. Drink this."
The girl took a bottle of red potion from someone. Not long after drinking it, her consciousness began to blur and her eyelids became heavier.
Rob reached out and waved his hand in front of the girl's eyes. After confirming that she was asleep, he placed her on the table. Matata started timing and adjusting the instrument.
However, at this moment, Luo Luo, who was supposed to be unconscious, suddenly sat up from the table.
She opened her eyes, and her pupils emitted a golden glow. Her entire aura changed, and the way she looked at Rob and Matata was cold and emotionless. It was as if she had turned into a completely different person.
There was an inhuman expression on her face. Luo Bu had seen a similar expression on the peak of Anarepp.
The next moment, Luo Luo reached out her hand and pulled out Starfall from Luo Bu's waist. She sliced the device in half with one slash and then swung it at Matata. The latter stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded. He did not expect things to turn out this way. He was still preparing to meet the ancient being in the spiritual world, but he did not expect the other party to attack first.
Fortunately, Rob reacted quickly and kicked Matata away.
