"I might be the most pitiful Black Soul Envoy … really."
Looking at the wounds on her body where she was bitten by the Horned Demon Wolves, mainly because a certain indescribable part of her body also suffered … [Yu Liya] looked at Medanzo with a serious expression.
"You still have me to accompany you!" The angelic young man smiled casually to comfort her.
[Yu Liya] couldn't help but cast him a sidelong glance, but in the end, she gave up on arguing with [Eleven Years Before].
Senior Eleven!
An Incipient Black Soul Python!
Who knows if Medanzo has any other strange tricks up her sleeves?
[Yu Liya] shook her head and crawled out from her hiding place — — from the looks of it, the pack of wolves they encountered on the snowy ground had already dispersed … and they had dispersed all of a sudden.
"They seem to be afraid of something." [Yu Liya] observed the ruined city in front of her and frowned: "There seems to be something here that they are afraid of."
Medanzo casually replied: "No matter what kind of creature it is, they all have a sense of territory. Perhaps we've entered the territory of an even more powerful creature … alright, take out your two pages as well. "
[Yu Liya] didn't hesitate and took out the pages she obtained from the two worlds — — not because she was [Eleven Years Before] … she was just watching. Even while being chased by the pack of wolves, Medanzo still didn't give up on Celine and forcefully carried the unconscious Celine all the way.
The wounds on this guy's body were probably even more than his own …
…
At this time, Medanzo placed the two pages into the half of the [Book of Gaia] that she obtained.
However, only the page from the Crayon Kingdom could be placed inside. As for the page from the Wraith Realm, it was floating by itself outside, but they seemed to have strangely become one.
"Senior, what's the situation now?"
Medanzo replied: "It seems that all page worlds are the same. They all need to find the core page of their world to complete this [Book of Gaia]. Looking at the situation, Kerrigan had already collected most of it, and the Book of Gaia should have recovered most of its functions. Unfortunately, now that it has been split into two, the recovery function seems to have been frozen again. "
[Yu Liya] looked at [Eleven] and smiled without saying anything. You were the one who cut open the book, okay?
"Although there aren't many left, it's still possible to use them to locate the center of the world," Medanzo said. "Otherwise, we would have landed here directly."
"You mean, in this city?" [Yu Liya] subconsciously looked at the ruined city … This city wasn't small. Although it had become a ruin, it wasn't hard to see how developed it was before it became a ruin.
The predecessor of this place was definitely an area of explosive population and economic development. She even saw many abandoned bridges in the air.
Although most of these winding bridges had disappeared, they all seemed to have once led to the same place.
"Is there something in the sky above this city?"
Medanzo looked up and thought for a bit, then said: "Perhaps, we can go to the center of this city to take a look."
Saying so, Medanzo closed the [Book of Gaia] in her hand and stuffed it into her chest pocket. "Let's do it. The [Book of Gaia]'s reaction is quite strong. If nothing unexpected happens, we might meet the protagonist of this world here."
[Yu Liya] blinked, feeling a bit curious … she was curious about what the protagonist in the form of a boss would look like this time.
She had met the [Boss] of the Crayon Kingdom world, but she had never met the [Boss] of the Wraith realm … according to what Medanzo said, it was a mischievous shota type.
A boss!
A shota version of a boss!
I could brag about it for the rest of my life!
"Senpai, let me carry Miss Selion for now," [Yu Liya] suddenly said. "Do you want to treat your wounds first?"
"What a sensible newcomer!"
"Of course not!"
…
…
The heavy door of the vault had already been opened … no matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like a huge iron door that could be opened by human strength.
Remia looked at [Z] curiously, wondering what he had found when he brought her to the vault of the bank.
After entering, she saw a lot of neatly stacked gold … she didn't feel much about this, even though the large pile of gold still gave her a bit of a shock.
[Z] had already found some random items from the safe on the side and took them out, placing them on the table in front of the gold.
He seemed to be showing off his spoils of war … Remia looked at [Z]'s spoils of war with interest.
They looked expensive, but they didn't seem to have much value — — Remia even saw a rather ordinary wooden music box.
She instinctively picked up the music box and opened it. As the springs spun, the sound was still crisp and pleasant even after many years.
The parts inside didn't even have any traces of rust. Although it looked ordinary, the workmanship wasn't simple at all … Remia felt that she might have underestimated the value of this music box.
"I like this music box." [Z] stood beside her and exclaimed, "This is the best music box I've ever found."
This world had always been terrifyingly quiet.
This world wasn't black and white, but a world without sound was more lonely than a black-and-white silent film.
Remia subconsciously asked, "Do you know the name of this song?"
She was even intoxicated by the sound of the music box and unknowingly became distracted.
[Z] shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. "We still know too little about what happened before the civilization was destroyed."
"I feel much better," Remia suddenly said faintly. She held the music box in her hands and seemed to like it very much.
"That's good." [Z] smiled. "There are still some things ahead. Do you want to take a look?"
She asked curiously, "What is it?"
"A door," [Z] said directly. "Behind the door, there's a passage that leads to the underground."
Remia was stunned. "Passage?"
…
"It's open!"
Along with Iron Armored Man Kaz's surprised yell, the collapsed station square finally opened up. Mr. Qingtian leaned in and looked inside.
The space in the square wasn't completely covered because the Christmas Tree Monster's body had blocked a lot of space.
They crawled in through the hole and carefully landed on the ground. Using the torch to illuminate the front, they saw that the Christmas Tree Monster had broken many branches and many steel bars stuck in its body.
There were many burn marks on its body … It seemed that after the square collapsed, the fire didn't extinguish immediately.
"Could it have been roasted to death?"
"I feel that it has lost its dignity as a monster." Qingtian shook his head.
Then, it came to the bottom of the Christmas Tree Monster's trunk and dug out a large number of bones buried under the trunk. It saw that there seemed to be something hidden under the bones. Vaguely, there was a bright red light shining through.
Kaz swept the bones with force and spread them out. Instantly, a red light shone on them.
"This thing …"
There was a big bulge at the root of the Christmas Tree Monster's trunk. No, it should be said that the roots at the bottom of the trunk were wrapped in a huge red cocoon-like object that looked like amber!
There was a person hidden in the red cocoon-like object … It was a girl who seemed to be in a deep sleep!
Kaz and Qingtian looked at each other. This was something they had never encountered on their journey.
"Should we break it open and take a look?" Kaz suggested subconsciously.
Mr. Qingtian pondered for a while and finally shook his head. "Don't touch the thing inside … It's a little strange. Let's call the others and see what's inside."
"Okay!" Kaz nodded. "You go and inform [Z] and the others. I'll stay here and watch."
Mr. Qingtian shook his head. "No, you go and inform them. I'll stay here and watch."
"Why?" Kaz shouted unhappily.
"Because your hands are dirty. You always like to touch things."
…
…
"How can this world be so barren?"
They walked on the road covered with gray snow. The buildings on both sides of the road had long collapsed. The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet. What they heard the most was their own footsteps.
"I'm starting to feel hungry and thirsty." Medanzo even sounded a little out of breath. "It's too bad. This Page World has solidified our bodies into the state of ordinary people."
"In other words …" Senior Yu Liya's expression changed slightly. "There's a possibility that we will freeze to death or starve to death?"
"If the situation doesn't get better, it's probably like that." Medanzo shook her head. "Of course, we can choose to leave this Page World now."
"Let's wait and see." Senior Sister [Yulia] pondered for a moment before saying, "As long as the worst-case scenario isn't reached … Moreover, we have to find the pages. Even if we give up now, we'll have to come back sooner or later, right?"
At this moment, Metatro was looking at the sky in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like something is watching us." Medanzo also frowned.
However, the sky was gray and the city was still quiet … Senior Yu Liya also looked around in confusion but didn't see anything. She thought for a while and said, "Be careful."
They continued walking on the silent and deserted streets.
At this moment, there was a pair of sharp eyes looking at the traces of people on the grayish-white snow … It was a little blue bird.
Suddenly, the little blue bird flapped its wings and swooped down, quickly disappearing in another direction.
…
…
"Taromaru!"
The last place the blue bird landed was the head of the huge toad, Taromaru.
"Weren't you investigating the environment? Why did you come back?"
"I found some … people."
"People?"
"Living humans like Remia!" The blue bird quickly said, "Where's [Z], hasn't she come out yet?"
"Yeah, she's been in there for some time." Taromaru shook his head and said, "There's no movement … Maybe [Z] found something interesting. He's always like that. Whenever he sees something interesting, he'll be fascinated. "
"I'll go in and take a look," the blue bird said and flew into the bank.
…
…
The tunnel behind the hidden door of the bank vault was built very sturdily — it was made of metal walls.
However, the cold still invaded the place, and there was a lot of frost on the metal walls.
"If you're cold, you can come closer to me," [Z] suddenly said.
She found that as long as she was close to [Z], the surrounding temperature seemed to increase a lot … [Z] wasn't a human, but Remia pretended not to know and silently enjoyed the warmth.
"I wonder who built such a passageway?"
[Z] didn't answer. The tunnel wasn't long, and they soon reached the end. In front of them was a door with an electronic lock beside it. However, the electronic lock screen had been turned off. Obviously, it had lost its power source.
[Z] used a crowbar to pry open the door. Then, he exerted force with both hands and opened the door easily — but there was another door inside.
[Z] opened the doors one by one. Finally, a space of about a hundred square meters appeared in front of them.
From the looks of it, it looked like a laboratory.
There were all kinds of instruments on the sides of the walls — they were all in a black screen state. The ground was covered with dense assembly lines.
These lines were all connected to a gigantic, egg-like object in the center of the space.
"Why don't we not go in?" Remia instinctively grabbed [Z]'s wrist.
"There shouldn't be any monsters here." [Z] observed for a while and said, "Moreover, I've never encountered these things before. Maybe we can find some clues before the civilization was destroyed … the clues I need. "
Remia was stunned. She hesitantly loosened her grip a little.
She remembered [Z] said that he was looking for someone very important to him. He had been traveling in this apocalyptic world because of this.
She had no reason to stop [Z] from finding any clues.
"Be careful," she said softly.
But [Z]'s method of finding clues was rather direct … or violent.
Under Remia's astonished gaze, [Z] lifted the crowbar and ran to the egg-like object in the middle. He inserted the crowbar into the gap and pried it open.
This egg-like object was made of metal.
But the moment [Z] pried open a corner of the egg-shell, the instruments in the basement suddenly lit up — they were flashing with a dark red light.
There was also a piercing buzzing sound!
At the same time, the egg-shell emitted a faint blue light. Then, a large amount of white gas erupted in all directions … It was slowly opening!
Like a petal, the egg-shell slowly opened. [Z] retreated to Remia's side and stared intently.
When the eggshell cracked open, a two-meter-tall cylinder appeared. When the cylinder opened, a woman wearing a thin white robe appeared in the cylinder.
"Gamma …"
The white gas slowly sank … At the same time, [Z]'s voice sounded.
Remia instinctively looked at [Z], who seemed to be in a daze.
"You … you know this woman?" Remia suddenly felt uneasy. She subconsciously grabbed [Z]'s wrist and asked.
[Z] seemed to come back to his senses. His gaze was blank for a moment before he shook his head. "I don't know … but this name suddenly flashed past my mind."
[Z] broke free from Remia's hand and walked towards the sleeping woman in the pillar.
"[Z] …"
She looked at his back and couldn't help but bite her lip.
