Puddle

The Writer was dressed in platinum, his face was pale and almost transparent, his expression was sickly, his lips were pale, and he looked completely weak and harmless.

He seemed quite surprised that they would find this place, and the smile on his lips sent a chill down Qin Rang and Sheng Qingqiao's spines, making them feel somewhat guilty.

I wonder how long he stayed there, how much he heard, and whether he heard them complaining.

What are you doing here?

[This is my private space]

Qin Rang pulled Sheng Qingqiao back a large step and said, "Sorry, we're leaving now!"

The Writer watched them leave the room with a smile, without stopping them, and continued searching for a suitable Jar for the bone in his hand, which was just the right size and thickness.

Qin Rang led Sheng Qingqiao of the room and into the Forest until they were far away from the room before stopping.

"Huff, huff, huff..."

Sheng Qingqiao was panting heavily, but still couldn't help but complain, "Actually, if I had only seen this room, it wouldn't have been so scary. It's just that I didn't expect it to be Ji Fengbai's territory... It gave me quite a fright. I thought I was going to be done for today."

He stumbled upon their secret and showed up uninvited, thinking they would be silenced.

"How could Ji Fengbai, as a member of the organization, be normal? Let's leave first and get away from here." Qin Rang was also somewhat surprised.

Sheng Qingqiao pondered, "So, where did he get the things in that Jar from?"

"Don't think about it." Qin Rang patted his head and urged him to leave quickly.

"It's hard for me not to think about this. He wouldn't want my smart and handsome brain, would he? That's terrifying!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Rang stared intently at him, looking him up and down, and said seriously, "You don't need to be afraid. Look, the things in those Jars are all aesthetically pleasing. You... are lacking."

Sheng Qingqiao stared intently at Qin Rang, then nodded seriously. "You're right, Captain, you don't need to be afraid."

Qin Rang narrowed his eyes. "Are you itching for a beating?"

"Hehe." Sheng Qingqiao quickly changed the subject, "Let's go, let's go. Time is tight and the mission is heavy. Let's go check out other places first."

Qin Rang Sheng Qingqiao lead the way, then turned on his communication device and asked, "Leaders, did you see the Brain in the middle of the Counter just now? It looks familiar. Is it one of the Weird Objects that were lost from the Containment Center?"

After he finished speaking, he waited a while, and he and Sheng Qingqiao crossed a small hill before receiving a reply.

Elder Ju: What cabinet?

Qin Rang was taken aback, and his steps slowly came to a stop.

Sheng Qingqiao turned around in confusion. "Why are you not leaving?"

Elder Ju: Didn't you just meet the Writer in an empty room and then leave?

Staring at those words, Qin Rang recalled the Writer's smile as they left and understood everything.

Sheng Qingqiao tilted her head and waved her hand in front of his eyes. "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly go silent?"

Qin Rang slapped his hand away and tapped his forehead in an annoyed tone. "We'll talk about leading you back later. Let's go."

Sheng Qingqiao covered her head and groaned a few times before following Qin Rang, muttering to herself.

They crossed one small hill after another, and when they stood atop the last and highest hill, they didn't see the distant scenery; instead, they encountered an Air Wall.

The scenery in front of the Air Wall was hazy and indistinct. Inside the Air Wall, no matter what methods they used, even Qin Rang using the Evil Ghost Mask, they could not break through.

"It seems this is the insurmountable Barrier Bai Yang mentioned," Sheng Qingqiao said. "Shall we walk along the Air Wall and see just how big this place really is!"

"No need to bother. Since they've cordoned off this area, it means they don't want us to leave, and they don't want us to know certain things."

"If that's the case, then what's enclosed within the Air Wall is what they think they can show us; measuring its size is meaningless."

Qin Rang turned and walked east. "Let's go, let's find the others and see if they've discovered anything."

"Oh oh!"

Qin Rang and the other man walked eastward. There were no weeds or trees here. Although the ground was all dirt, the path was not difficult to walk on. There were no other living creatures around. Before they knew it, they had walked a long way.

About half an hour later, they saw a patch of green taking root and sprouting in the soil amidst the white bushes.

Sheng Qingqiao crouched down to examine it. "This seems to be the Thorns Flower Language."

Looking ahead along the Thorns, the lush green Thorns stretched all the way until they took root in a clear little pond.

"Will this really work?" Luo Jiayu sat in the small pool filled with Crystals, her long blue Long Hair and half her body submerged in the water, looking at the Flower Language on the shore with a sense of helplessness.

Flower Language's drooping eyebrows lifted slightly, and although her eyes were still filled with tears, it was clear that she was in a good mood.

"Yes." The Flower Language "flower" is concise and to the point.

Mi Chuchu, squatting beside the pool, was washing her Full-Body Armor Weird Object with the water. It had been quite a struggle to blast a small pool out of the ground.

"But, this—"

Flower Language Yu took out the Weather Card - Moderate Rain, which had two remaining uses, and waved it in front of Luo Jiayu.

Luo Jiayu shut her mouth and stared longingly at the Weather Card.

"So, will this water allow you to successfully use the Weird Object?" Mi Chuchu asked curiously.

What are you doing soaking in the water?

Qin Rang and Sheng Qingqiao ran over, bypassing the Thorns, and watched this scene with curiosity.

Mi Chuchu shook the water off her armor. "Oh, it's a long story."

Mi Chuchu and Luo Jiayu originally wanted to follow the strange Cat Boy back, but he was too fast, and as they walked behind him, they lost track of where he went.

Mi Chuchu has no sense of direction, and she wandered around here for more than ten minutes with the timid Luo Jiayu.

Luo Jiayu actually knew they had gone to the wrong place, but seeing Mi Chuchu pacing back and forth with a sullen, Doll -faced expression, she assumed Mi Chuchu had her own ideas and remained silent.

"After getting lost, we met Miss Flower Language. She said she could help Luo Jiayu overcome the limitation that she can only use Weird Object in Luohai City." Mi Chuchu pouted, "Look, they're trying it out."

"You think you can just dig a Puddle to test it?" Sheng Qingqiao squatted down curiously and looked at Luo Jiayu. "I heard that Mermaids only appear in the sea. Is there enough water in this small pool?"

Luo Jiayu shook her head timidly, water droplets rolling down her Long Hair blue hair. Her energy was currently in a semi-mobilized state, making it impossible for her to activate the Weird Object.

"Can you use other Weird Objects in your current state?" Qin Rang asked.

"Alright," Flower Language said calmly, "What am I supposed to do here?"

Luo Jiayu nodded in agreement. "Sister Flower Language said that this water will allow me to walk on land for longer and also allow me to use some of the Weird Object's abilities!"

Sheng Qingqiao exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? So people from Sea City really can't stay on land for long?"
