Night fell.
Everyone found a clean spot near the carriage and sat on the ground.
"Only the few of us are left" Epta sighed.
Shroud was confused: "Something must have happened to the World of Laws, the Overlord of Radiance is no longer responding to my summons"
Atley also asked: "Why did our World Valley suffer the most damage? Could it be that the Overlord has something against us? "
No one answered.
The World Valley had been completely destroyed.
What will happen next?
Everyone exchanged glances, only to see the fear and unease on each other's faces.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at Reneedol without anyone noticing.
— – Reneedol was observing everyone.
She would occasionally display a contemplative expression as she silently listened to everyone's discussion.
Then, did she reincarnate?
Or was she taken over?
Gu Qing Shan silently pondered.
Parallel worlds …
In the great tomb of the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, to fight against those Apocalypses, I once used the twin swords Heaven and Earth to summon multiple versions of myself from parallel worlds.
— — perhaps this Reneedol in front of me is also a version of me from a parallel world?
Gu Qing Shan silently pondered this.
Suddenly, Reneedol lowered her head and silently chanted something.
A gloomy and gloomy aura began to exude from her body, forming a giant face above everyone's heads.
There were no other organs on this face, only a giant mouth.
The huge mouth opened slightly and then stopped moving.
— — -this terrifying thing was silently released by Reneedol without a single sound or warning.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at it with the corner of his eye, then stopped looking.
Other than him, everyone else didn't notice anything.
— — only those with the power of Fate can see the manifestation of Fate techniques.
It seems Reneedol was already suspicious of this small group.
After a while, Epta was the first to speak up:
"Shroud, the Elders are all dead, what do we do now?"
Shroud hesitated briefly, then replied: "Without knowing the situation, there's nothing we can do — — I'm preparing to contact the World of Laws again to find out the truth"
"No." Reneedol suddenly spoke up. "Those Law Behemoths are still fighting. It's unwise for you to enter the Law Realm now."
Shroud shook his head: "Right now, our powers are slowly fading away. If we don't quickly connect to the World of Laws, we might not be able to win against our next enemies"
Reneedol said coldly, "Do you think we can solve this problem with just the few of us?"
Shroud froze, then slowly spoke: "Reneedol, you've already been abducted once, I don't want such a thing to happen again"
Reneedol smiled faintly and went along with what he said. "That's why we should find a place to hide and carefully observe the changes in the world instead of recklessly going to the Law Realm to investigate."
Everyone looked at Shroud.
Shroud was the leader, so he had the right to decide Reneedol's opinion.
Shroud hesitated briefly, then suddenly turned to Gu Qing Shan and asked: "Rhode, what do you think we should do?"
Reneedol also turned to look at him.
The faceless giant face hovering above her head became restless.
Gu Qing Shan ignored it and casually said: "I'll leave that to you. I'm actually a bit hungry, so I'll go look for something to eat"
He rose to his feet and walked over to the carriage, which lay on its side.
Reneedol stared at his back.
Atley called out in dissatisfaction: "Oi, Rhode, why do you only think about eating?"
Gu Qing Shan replied without turning around: "We haven't eaten anything for an entire day, so we need to replenish our energy. Otherwise, we won't be able to deal with anything that happens later"
It was only after he said that that everyone noticed that they were hungry.
After an entire day of running, chasing, and fighting, everyone had basically reached their limit.
Shroud stood up and said: "I'll go with you"
A few moments later.
Gu Qing Shan and Shroud found a bit of dry rations in the trunk of the horse carriage, as well as some simple cooking utensils.
"If we eat like this, it won't be enough for everyone, we need to think of something else" Gu Qing Shan said.
"They still have enough seasonings. I know how to cook, how about I cook for everyone?" Epta suggested.
Gu Qing Shan rolled up his sleeves and said: "Let me do it"
He took out the dry rations, arranged the cooking utensils, and quickly prepared them.
Not too long later.
A large pot of steaming hot food was ready.
"How fragrant, what did you make?" Shroud asked.
"It should be some sort of noodle soup" Reneedol appeared to be recalling something and said.
Gu Qing Shan looked at her in surprise.
"How did you know?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Reneedol replied: "I guessed"
Gu Qing Shan appeared confused.
Reneedol said: "Alright, let's split the food, everyone really needs to eat something"
"Ah, alright"
Gu Qing Shan arranged the bowls and began to ladle out the noodle soup.
Above everyone, the faceless giant face temporarily calmed down.
Gu Qing Shan pretended it didn't exist and silently thought about Reneedol's changes.
She stopped Shroud from entering the World of Laws, released that terrifying thing, then told me the name of the food, repeatedly observed and tested me.
— — which means she remembers what happened earlier.
She was suspicious of Rhode.
After all, at the very last moment, when Rhode rushed down the cliff to check on Atley's situation, Red Wraith immediately appeared.
Gu Qing Shan's heart sank a bit.
"Alright, everyone, come and eat."
He called out to everyone.
By this time, the sky had already darkened. Everyone gathered around and quickly finished eating.
After that, the group didn't know what to do.
Shroud walked up to Reneedol and whispered something to her.
Reneedol sternly replied: "The entire World Valley has been destroyed, do you really think you're strong enough to enter the World of Laws to see the truth?"
Shroud was retorted again and could only give up.
Reneedol then said: "Rhode, Shroud has always been disregarding his own life, you need to convince him"
Gu Qing Shan was startled, then replied: "Shroud is our leader, how would I dare to convince him"
Reneedol was still staring at him.
Gu Qing Shan scratched his head and said: "But he always listens to you, we'll do whatever you say"
Reneedol's gaze calmed down and said: "There's a forest over there, let's rest there and wait until morning"
"Everyone, let's go" Shroud said.
Everyone quickly responded.
That night, the group of six stayed in the forest.
No one passed by the forest, and no one tried to provoke Reneedol.
Everything was fine, but today was the first day of their escape, so no one could sleep.
Epta and Scarlet stayed together.
Atley and Rhode were asking Shroud about forming a covenant with a Law Behemoth.
Reneedol was cultivating by herself.
The giant face was still hovering above everyone's heads, not moving at all.
After midnight, Reneedol suddenly stood up and headed out of the forest.
"Where are you going?" Shroud chased after her and asked.
"My stomach isn't feeling well, so I'm going to relieve myself, don't you dare peek" Reneedol replied.
After saying so, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
Shroud was a bit surprised, then a bit embarrassed, so he could only return to his resting area and asked Atley and Gu Qing Shan:
"Where were we?"
"You said that the Overlords would choose mortals who agreed with them" Atley replied.
Shroud continued.
While listening, Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
If — — -
Reneedol remembered everything that happened last time.
Then she should be looking for that wizard or Red Wraith right now.
If she's looking for Red Wraith, and Red Wraith doesn't show up …
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit anxious.
During this period of time, he had to stay close to Shroud and help Shroud understand this part of history.
If he didn't dispel Reneedol's suspicions, he would have to face Reneedol's Fate ability sooner or later.
While he was thinking, Atley suddenly stood up.
"About the question just now — — Atley, what are you doing?" Shroud asked.
"I'm going to pee, I'll be right back" Atley replied.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze flickered a bit and stood up: "I'm coming as well"
The two of them left the forest and found a secluded spot.
A few moments later, the two of them returned, sat next to Shroud, and seriously listened to Shroud's teachings.
…
At another location.
Reneedol was standing in the wilderness.
The giant and terrifying faceless face was still hovering above her head.
— — this place was very close to a wizard's camp, but she wasn't interested in looking for trouble with them.
She was waiting for someone.
"It's about time, this should be the place"
Reneedol muttered to herself and turned towards a certain direction.
The sky was now even darker, the deepest point of the day.
From the darkness, a single person appeared.
This person was wearing a pure-white mask that only used a shadow to outline a pair of long and thin eyes, other than that, there was nothing else.
The pair of eyes, one red and one black, gave off a rather eerie feeling.
Red Wraith!
Sure enough, he appeared.
Killing intent surged from Reneedol's body and muttered: "I am Reneedol of the World Valley, who are you? Why have you appeared here? "
The faceless face above her head slowly opened its mouth.
