Linsey walked straight through the canyon.
Few people had ever set foot in this world. Its wild flora and fauna grew unchecked, and along the way, Linsey came across two herb-gathering spots.
He took only what he needed.
After working at the Workbench for a while, he added a stimulant and a fast-acting healing potion to his supplies reserves.
By the second night,
Linsey had yet to reach the region of temporal chaos, but he spotted a green friendly marker on the map first.
"A green marker?"
"Alvitte? Arona."
Linsey sounded puzzled, but he quickly ruled out the latter.
The believer girl had told Linsey that the world she was in was an entirely different environment from this grand canyon.
As for Alvitte...
Linsey unconsciously slowed his pace and opened the Friend Channel.
Linsey: Alvitte, it's been a long time since we talked. How have you been lately?
Alvitte: What is it this time? Something else you want to show off to me?
Linsey: I'm not showing off this time. I just wanted to ask how you've been! There's nothing wrong with caring about a friend, right?
Alvitte: I'm doing quite well. Like you, I'm currently being affected by multiple temporal disturbances.
Alvitte: But this incident is both a crisis and an opportunity. I found a chance to break the deadlock!
Multiple chaotic timelines? A way to break the deadlock?
Hearing this, Linsey's heart tightened.
He stared at the green dot on the map and even began calculating whether Alvitte's range of perception could detect him.
Of course,
he continued sending messages through the Friend Channel.
Linsey: You found a way to escape the chaotic spacetime too?
Alvitte: No. What I found is hope for resolving the City of Law's problem!
Linsey: Huh?
Linsey: Alvitte?
Linsey: Hello? Hello?
Linsey: ...
