The bamboo mat and short table that Ling Meng had brought over was a place for everyone to chat, eat, and boast in the afternoon. But now, it was occupied by an unfamiliar little girl.
It was a girl-like creature that could be classified as a loli. She wore a white sleeveless shirt and a dark purple pleated skirt. She looked very energetic and her long blonde hair reached her waist. The end of her hair was casually tied with a white hairband. It was a very mature hairstyle, but because of the big red bow on the girl's head, she looked even more playful. The young girl looked very young. Her large eyes reflected a reddish-brown light under the night sky. Other than her appearance, the most eye-catching thing about her was the purple gourd in her hand that was twice the size of her head, the iron chains wrapped around her body, and the pair of large horns on her head.
Sitting across from this girl was someone I had already gotten to know today, the winged Daoist girl named Fumi, Shimeimaru. The two of them occupied the short table that originally belonged to Soumon (Actually, considering how Soumon obtained this thing, this table should have belonged to me). They were currently busy toasting each other. As we approached each other, a strong aroma of alcohol assaulted our nostrils.
"Yo, Ling Meng and Purple, you're back?"
The girl with the strange horns raised the large gourd in her hand and greeted us from afar. The clear sound of water came from the gourd.
"Watermelon (Fragrant … Cough cough, another name, please Google it)?" Ling Meng called out in surprise. In the end, we were all silent for three seconds.
"In the future, stay away from Bubble. Especially don't follow that girl to study Dongfang," I patted Ling Meng's shoulder. "Last time, there was a Gundam pilot who came to the City of Shadows to hand in a mission. After being caught by Bubble, he was lectured for half an afternoon. In the end, he was brainwashed. When he returned, he announced in front of all the Gundam pilots that humanoid battle robots were trash. That grandson was almost beaten to death."
Ling Meng glanced at me and continued to speak in a tragic tone, "… I'm afraid that I'll talk in my sleep and call myself Hongbai in the future."
I was speechless.
The girl who was called Watermelon was stunned. Then, she drunkenly scratched her cheeks, "Ling Meng, what watermelon? You want to eat watermelon? "
Tears welled up in Ling Meng's eyes. "Cuixiang, just pretend you didn't hear it."
"Oh." The long-horned girl named Cui Xiang shrugged her shoulders in confusion. She seemed to be bothered by the fact that she was called a watermelon. However, she quickly gave up on this brain-cell-consuming question. She waved the large gourd in her hand and called out to us, "Come, come, come. Let's have a drink together! You have to drink before you start working so that you can have the strength! "
"I don't think I need to introduce her. That's Ibuki Suika," Yagumo Zi whispered into my ear. "I've known her for a long time. Don't be fooled by her looks. She's one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ghost clan. She's very strong, and she has a straightforward personality. She didn't show up this time because she didn't think it mattered if she didn't participate. Moreover, she doesn't like to listen to others' commands. Cuixiang is very forthright. If it's you, you should be able to be friends with her. "
"Is that so? You've worked hard this time." I turned to look at Yagumo Zi. "You seem to have a good relationship with this Ghost clan girl. This is the first time that you've taken the initiative to introduce someone from the fantasy land to me."
"We've known each other for a long time. We share similar interests. You're also my friend, so I wanted to introduce you two to each other."
Similar interests … Alright, we share similar interests in peeping at Kuang Zi's mother. I won't talk about it anymore.
"Ha! You must be that human. The one who brought Purple and Ling Meng back."
A sudden question interrupted Yagumo Zi and I. It turned out that after greeting Ling Meng, Ibuki Suika noticed that we were lagging behind. She couldn't help but run over. Even though she was a lolita, she looked at me, an outsider, from head to toe with her bold eyes. Ibuki Suika stared at me for a long time before she finally scratched her head. "Ah! Outsider, person from another world, Purple seems to have gone to an incredible place. She said a lot of things. It's a pity that I couldn't understand a single thing. Anyway, you're a good person. You took in Purple and Ling Meng when they were in trouble, right?"
I immediately looked at Purple's mother emotionally. Such a realistic description. This is the conscience of a person who was taken in. Compared to that unscrupulous person who only knows how to run her mouth, Purple, you're the role model of the new era!
"Here, take it!" Suika suddenly patted my shoulder. Her strength was astounding. Then, she stuffed the huge gourd in her hand into my hand. "Because you're a good person, drink as much as you want! I don't intend to find out where you're from anyway. If you can drink, then you're my friend! "
How could she use such a method to judge a friend's qualifications?
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the big-horned loli's straightforward behavior. However, I knew that it was rude to reject a toast from a member of the Ghost race. I didn't reject her offer and accepted the gourd. Normally, a girl would care about the awkwardness of sharing a drinking vessel with a man. However, this bold loli in front of me definitely didn't have such thoughts.
I raised the heavy gourd and poured the strong liquor into my mouth. Then, I was dumbfounded.
There was a clang! Oh my Nine Heavens Buddha, is this stuff pure alcohol, bastard?!
After taking a sip, I immediately felt like I was going to die. My alcohol tolerance was only average. I should have known that one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ghost race's' Royal Liquor 'wasn't something I could handle. After just one sip, I felt like I was being poisoned by alcohol. I stood there with smoke coming out of my face. I looked at you from afar. If you didn't mention it, I would have thought that there was a steam humidifier!
Although my strengthened body wouldn't collapse from such stimulation, the strong liquor still stimulated my sense of taste. I couldn't help but take a deep breath. Suika Ibuki was also dumbfounded as she looked at me. After a long time, she suddenly revealed an expression of satisfaction. "Wow, you're so honest! Even ordinary members of the Ghost race wouldn't dare to drink this kind of liquor! I just wanted you to have a taste. You're a good person! "
Ding! You should have told me about such an important thing earlier. If you had told me earlier, would I still have drunk it?
After a long while, I finally recovered from the hell of industrial alcohol pouring into my brain. With a face full of resentment, I looked at Cuixiang, who was happily pouring alcohol into her mouth, and Yakumo Zi, who obviously knew what was going to happen but didn't say anything. Then, I took out a bottle from my dimensional pocket, "Ibuki Cuixiang, courtesy demands reciprocity. Why don't you try the drink from our world?"
"Just call me Suika! You're quite an honest person. You're not like some humans who play tricks. That's why we're friends. "The Ghost girl patted my shoulder generously and took the bottle." What's this? Liquor? It's quite strong. "
Suika sniffed the bottle in her hand curiously. She tilted her head and drank everything in the bottle. Then, she wiped her mouth. "It tastes like liquor, but it doesn't have the fragrance of liquor. It's a pity. Plus, there's something solid in it. But it's really strong. It's good to drink this before a fight. What's this? "
My face stiffened. "Ninety-nine percent semisolid ethanol."
"Is there more?"
I felt that I was completely defeated by this girl who acted as if she was familiar with us. A loli who could drink a kilogram of pure ethanol in one go without changing her expression would definitely rule the world!
Sandora patted my shoulder comfortingly. She had an encouraging expression that said 'don't take it to heart' on her face. I could only shrug my shoulders. Luckily, my elder sister didn't come with me today. Otherwise, with just this atmosphere filled with the smell of alcohol, the Land of Fantasy would be littered with corpses. The seven-word mantra of 'Raise your glass, touch your lips, and your sister will immediately pounce' was not a joke.
But no matter what was said, it seemed that I had accidentally gained Cui Xiang's favor. Cui Xiang was a straightforward person, and also liked straightforward people. In addition, with her old friend Eight Cloud Purple's introduction, after the little girl asked for a second bottle of pure alcohol and a large amount of Azeroth Dwarf Ale, she announced that she already considered me, Chen, as a friend.
"Although it's a pity that your alcohol tolerance is terrible, you're surprisingly frank. Plus, you brought so much alcohol as a gift. It should be able to make up for your alcohol tolerance!" Suika was slightly dazed. Her face was flushed. "At first, I heard Purple say that it was some kind of emperor. I thought it was an annoying human. I didn't expect you to be so tactful … Eh? What's going on? "
Suika was originally busy dealing with a bottle of Iron Stove Castle's' Burning Throat '. Suddenly, her attention was attracted by something. The little girl pointed at the western sky in surprise. Her sharp eyes swept away her slightly drunk appearance.
Following the direction of her finger, I saw a rapidly brightening spot of light. This spot of light gathered at the bottom of Atlantis, as though several energy flashes in the surroundings had suddenly gathered together. Blue-white lightning shot out from the spot of light, whipping the metal vines nearby. This triggered a chain reaction of light, as though it was a nebula lightning that spread a few kilometers away. In the center of this nebula lightning, the spot of light that first appeared had already expanded into a dazzling white ball of light within a second or two. There was almost no time for people to react. Accompanied by a dull and continuous explosion, the ball of light exploded. Crystal shards fell from the explosion point like a beautiful rain of light, falling at the foot of the Monster Mountain. However, the consequences that they brought were definitely not as beautiful. The raging forest fire that contained extremely high energy soared into the sky before the shards could land on the ground. Within a few seconds, a large area was illuminated.
In the distance, the crimson flames and the noise of some monsters splashed onto the mountainside where everyone was gathered. The monsters that were drinking and resting stood up one after another to look in the direction of the forest fire. Then, some of the monsters that were good at flying soared into the sky and began to call for help to extinguish the fire. However, I had already reacted at that moment. Pointing in the direction where the fire was spreading wildly, I immediately spread my energy suppression. "Calm down."
The forest fire that had already spread for several kilometers instantly disappeared. Only the faint smoke in the darkness proved that something had happened there.
Not only Cui Xiang and You Youzi, who were acquainted with me for the first time, but even Ling Meng and the others saw me make a move for the first time. The power that was completely incomprehensible had directly stopped the spreading fire. They couldn't help but look at me in surprise. However, I didn't have the time to respond to these chattering fellows. An urgent report had entered the information link. It was the latest intelligence from Atlantis' secret service.
The second main energy pipeline at the bottom of the floating island had ruptured. One-third of Atlantis' psionic energy pipeline was blocked. The uncontrollable psionic energy was overflowing out of the floating island.
Fortunately, the ruptured energy pipeline was on the side far from the Monster Mountain. None of the monsters here were injured. The worst part was that their rest time was over.
I sent this message to Yagunzi and Ling Meng. The two of them knew that this wasn't the time to joke around. They immediately ordered, "Hurry up and gather! Atlantis' energy is leaking! Sky Island will take off in thirty minutes! "
Actually, there was no need for them to inform us. The earlier explosion had already made the nervous monsters understand that the operation was about to begin. The powerful monsters that had only rested for a short while had already started to nervously and orderly replace their companions' positions. They tried their best to transfer the power as smoothly as possible. Cui Xiang also muttered something. She drank the almost 100% ethanol in one go and ran to help.
Sandora ordered the mothership to project the scene from afar. The originally pitch-black Atlantis land was instantly covered by a layer of soft light film. The red and green colors could be clearly seen on the surface. The monsters that were busy preparing to take off were stunned. However, they soon received Ling Meng's valiant explanation, "Gather in the green zone! The energy pipeline in the red zone has ruptured. Those who intend to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation can go down there and wait to be struck by lightning! "
Although no one knew what a Heavenly Tribulation was, the monsters had seen a few light particles that had ignited a forest fire. None of them were stupid enough to go to the red zone and wait to be teleported.
Although the operation was carried out ahead of schedule due to an unexpected situation, it was only a few hours earlier than expected. Other than the fact that some of the monsters did not have enough rest, there was no sign of chaos in the execution of the plan. Under the command of Yakumo Zi and Ling Meng, the monsters in the fantasy land, who were never used to coalition forces, quickly calmed down from their panic. I believed that Ling Meng's act of throwing talismans and shooting pills everywhere and holding up a camera to secretly take a picture of someone making a fool of themselves had effectively improved the coordination of this group of undisciplined people.
The monsters were all otherworldly beings. They had a certain degree of adaptability to the vacuum and radiation of outer space. However, in order to prevent any accidents, we still prepared appropriate safety measures for them. When Atlantis finally began to slowly rise into the sky under the effect of the anti-gravity field, a layer of translucent bubble-like substance enveloped the huge hemispherical space beneath the floating island. This layer of seemingly fragile but actually very reliable barrier was not a product of Schilling technology. Instead, it came from the Pan-Galactic Civilization Community. The latter called it a projectile support shield. It was a long-range shield formation system that was researched by the Shepherdians over thousands of years to preserve as much important power as possible. Tawil modified this simple but extremely creative shield so that it could use psionic energy as the shield structure, thus increasing its value by dozens of times.
Facts had proven that even civilizations that were several times more backward than the Empire still had creativity that we could learn from. Not underestimating any kind of wisdom and squeezing out the value from any kind of knowledge that was beneficial to the Empire had always been the source of the Shiring Apostles' rapid evolution. However, at the end of the old Empire, the Apostles had forgotten this point. Their arrogance made them believe that their technology could rule everything. They no longer cared about any civilization, and they even ignored the advice of the Protoss. In the end, it led to a catastrophe.
Fortunately, they had now regained the power of progress — but this is a digression.
"Good, very good. The ascension process has begun, and it looks very stable now. Sandora, how are their mental states? "
Sandora and I personally followed the large group of monsters as they rose into the sky. Sandora was ready to appease the excited spirits of these monsters as they traveled through the stars for the first time. I, on the other hand, had to deal with the energy impact produced by the explosion of the abyss of Atlantis. If such an accident really happened, it was indeed a problem for me to deal with it in an instant.
"It's still considered stable." Sandora floated in the air. The ends of her blonde hair that fluttered behind her spread out golden rays of light, once again forming a CPU state. "Currently, the most excited one is Ling Meng. The words' demolition compensation 'have been echoing in my head for ten minutes."
I was speechless.
Due to the anti-gravity field, the floating island of Atlantis could rise vertically into the sky without considering any cosmic speed. This brought us great convenience. After confirming that the physiques of the monsters were really good, the ascension process gradually sped up. In the end, the acceleration of the floating island and the monsters even reached dozens of G's. The distant horizon had already shown a clear arc. The green world at the location of the fantasy land below had disappeared. The Eight Cloud Purple had changed part of the nature of the Great Boli Enchantment in advance. It allowed us to leave that isolated place after five minutes of ascension. In other words, Atlantis was now operating in the "outside world."
However, we had activated the invisibility system. The people in the outside world definitely wouldn't notice that a lump of earth the size of a giant city was rumbling over their heads. Although the sudden appearance of a cloud hole in the atmosphere was enough to confuse them.
"Wow, so this is the current outside world …"
Next to us, a little girl that I wasn't familiar with looked down curiously while maintaining the energy output to the outside world. The bright city below and the gradually brightening horizon in the distance made this monster, who had probably never left the fantasy land since it was first established, extremely curious. "It's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect the outside world to become like this."
"You'll be surprised later," I said with a smile.
I said with a smile. The other party immediately jumped up in surprise. "Wow! You talked to me! "
I asked, "?"
"Wen Wen said that you are a very dangerous human! Ling Meng is pregnant because she talked to you! "
I felt that it was my lifelong regret that I didn't use a Patriot to shoot down Wen Wen Wen.
