An eighth-dimensional enemy.
The moment this concept surfaced in Liu Di's mind, his consciousness tensed instantly.
He had originally thought that helping Span resolve her hometown's crisis would be an easy task.
Now, it seemed that nothing was as simple as he had imagined.
The universe was vast, powerful enemies stood everywhere, and there was no chance for him to catch his breath.
The man in the white shirt stared at the locator before him, which did not exist in the same space as himself.
He could not even touch this locator.
The karma, past lives, and present lives of the entire Void City were shrouded by an invisible force. He knew nothing.
There were still ten hours until the enemy arrived.
He had reached an impasse.
Hmm.
Liu Di pondered quietly.
Then, suddenly.
From the corner of a distant building, Liu Di spotted a pair of lively blue eyes. The boy's eyes darted around as his body hid behind the wall, with only his eyes peeking out to watch Liu Di.
It was a little boy wearing overalls.
He had blue pupils and slightly curly blond hair, looking quite adorable.
Liu Di knew that this little fellow had been secretly following them from the beginning. He was curious and wanted to speak, but seemed afraid to approach.
Liu Di had initially assumed he was simply a curious child fascinated by their group.
But now.
Liu Di's gaze shifted. He saw invisible chains of karma twisting around the child's body like a mass of gray mist, tangled together without rhyme or reason.
This was merely a sensation Liu Di had.
It was as though this child had tangled up the karma Liu Di should have clearly understood, tying it into knot after knot and leaving him completely in the dark.
