A Sudden Anomaly

Under Fang Li's influence, Alisa also realized the problems she had to consider.

To be honest, the current situation is really terrible.

All around was an endless wilderness.

They had no survival tools on hand.

Like being lost in the desert or adrift on a deserted island at sea, the situation is quite critical.

Even though Fang Li and Alisa are not ordinary people, they still need to eat and drink.

Without these, Fang Li and Alisa would die sooner or later.

Moreover, in this day and age, the outside world is almost entirely the territory of the Aragami.

In this perilous situation, they also face the possibility of going to war with the Aragami at any time. Moreover, both Fang Li and Alisa are injured. If things go wrong, they might really lose their lives here in the next second.

This is something Alisa absolutely cannot allow.

Compared to her inner resentment, Alisa had more important things to do.

Alisa absolutely does not want to die until that thing is done.

That's why Alisa chose to become God Eater.

At that moment, Alisa disregarded the fact that Fang Li was carrying her and racked her brains to think.

At this moment, as if he hadn't had enough trouble, Fang Li directly threw this sentence at Alisa.

"Let me make it clear beforehand that I know absolutely nothing about Russia. I have neither the tools to determine directions nor the maps to confirm my location, so I can only entrust all of these to you."

"... Is that so?" Alisa said softly, "That's why you saved me, isn't it?"

"You can interpret it that way if you want," Fang Li shrugged, speaking with complete nonchalance. "Anyway, it's just something I do conveniently."

It has to be said that that nonchalant tone could easily ignite Mumei in the ears of the person being rescued.

However, Alisa seemed unwilling to Fang Li on such a trivial matter any longer, and simply asked, "So, where do you plan to move to now?"

"No," Fang Li replied, "I just wanted to try and see if I could get out of this predicament."

"Trying?" Alisa was startled and couldn't help but say, "Did you just randomly choose a direction to go?"

In that case, it would be better to stay put and not move, and perhaps we can wait for rescue.

"Unfortunately, the area could be attacked by the Aragami again at any time, and I don't want to sit there and wait to die." Fang Li said to Alisa, "Besides, I didn't just choose a direction randomly. I chose this direction because I saw a large number of Aragami heading in this direction."

Alisa didn't immediately understand the meaning of those words.

A while later, Alisa understood the significance of Fang Li's decision.

"I see." Alisa calmly analyzed, "Since the Aragami are now attacking the Russian Branch in groups, if a large number of Aragami are heading in one direction, then that direction is very likely to be the direction where the Russian Branch is located, right?"

"Well, that's how it is." Fang Li pursed his lips and said, "It would be a miracle if we could walk back to the Russian Branch on just these two feet. I was just hoping that we might run into another team on the way. If you have a better method, you'd better bring it up now."

After a moment of contemplation, Alisa could only helplessly admit that Fang Li's approach was the most appropriate method to take in the current situation.

However, Alisa didn't want to rely on others forever.

"Put me down," Alisa said in an unquestionable tone. "I can walk by myself."

"Are you sure?" Fang Li glanced at Alisa on his back with a half-smile. "Alright, as long as you can get down on your own, I won't stop you for no reason."

Upon hearing this, Alisa gritted her teeth and immediately tried to get off Fang Li's back.

Unfortunately, the excruciating pain throughout her body still prevented Alisa from moving, causing a hint of pain to flash in Alisa eyes.

There was nothing that could be done; Alisa had indeed been subjected to Vajra's full-force electric shock.

That electric shock, even in terms of sheer power, was no different from a massive lightning strike.

If it weren't for the fact that Alisa was God Eater with Oracle Cell injected into her body, giving her incredible physical abilities, an ordinary person would have died instantly from that kind of electric shock.

Alisa was able to survive largely thanks to her physical constitution.

Even so, Alisa's injuries were quite severe, and she almost immediately lost consciousness.

Therefore, even if the God Eater has amazing regenerative abilities, it will still take some time for it to recover to a state where it can act independently.

This fact made Alisa feel resentful once again.

How can one be content with the fact that one pursues strength in order to overcome one's own weakness, yet ultimately still needs others to save them?

Thinking of this, Alisa mustered all her strength and, ignoring the pain in her body, struggled to get off Fang Li.

Sensing the situation behind him, Fang Li stopped, but as he had said before, he did not stop her. Instead, he stayed quietly in place, letting Alisa go down.

"Clang—!"

With a crisp sound, Alisa used her divine weapon as a support to stand on the ground and barely managed to keep her body upright.

Without even glancing at Fang Li, Alisa spoke these words with her usual indifferent attitude.

"Let's go."

After saying that, Alisa used the Divine Machine as a cane and walked forward step by step.

Although his figure looked extremely disheveled, it was also exceptionally resolute.

Seeing this, Fang Li didn't say anything, but just helplessly shrugged and walked forward as well.

However, at that moment, an unusual phenomenon occurred.

"Rumble..."

The ground began to shake suddenly without any warning, and the shaking intensified.

"Wh...what?" Alisa was startled.

Fang Li was also caught off guard by the sudden turn of events.

The next second, a huge sound suddenly broke out.

"————Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa————"

It was a voice that sounded like a young girl crying.

However, the sound was as loud as a thunderclap in a clear sky, turning into rolling sound waves that echoed throughout the entire sky, making Fang Li and Alisa's eardrums buzz and almost causing them to cry out in pain.

The two could only cover their ears, raise their heads, and look in the direction from which the sound came.

Immediately, both of them were stunned.
