(Fairy-Tale) Land of the Fairies
As Cong Yu said this, Nagashima Koki, holding a small dagger, made a "V" sign. "Indeed, indeed--"
The Doctor glanced at Cong Yu in response.
Now the Doctor probably knows that Cong Yu trains others... at least ordinary people's logic.
That means simply [learning from me, being like me] is enough.
First comes mindset, then moral values, and finally, technique.
Let Xiao Xi strive to become the strongest human... the strongest human in Cong Yu's heart -- [the former Cong Yu (me)].
However, if Doctor are asked to think objectively using normal logic...
Indeed, of all the ordinary people she had ever seen, setting aside the factors of power and influence, Cong Yu was undoubtedly the most terrifying and strongest.
At that time, Cong Yu, with his expressionless and nonchalant demeanor, could indeed be imagined as he casually chatted and laughed while piercing someone's chest with a blade.
The current Cong Yu seems to have lost that sense of detachment and remoteness that was once associated with a "human god," and has gained other emotions.
Perhaps it could be called superfluous emotion.
That initial spark likely originated from Cong Yu's other King of Glory friends, and its flourishing blossoming can be attributed to...
It's all thanks to the magical girls in front of us.
"Alright, that concludes today's training..."
As Cong Yu spoke, announcing Nagashima Koki's dismissal, he cautioned, "Strength isn't for showing off, and killing isn't cool, Xiao Xi, remember that... If you absolutely must kill, remember to use your hands and feet..."
Before Cong Yu could even finish saying the word "clean," Yaochuan Guang already knew that Cong Yu was promoting strange values again.
She immediately waved her hands to stop them, loudly retorting, "You can't kill people! You can't kill people! If you're being bullied, just tell Xiao Cui."
As she said this, Yaochuan Guang paused for a moment, glanced at Xiao Cui was standing with her hands on her hips and nodding... She fell into a little thought.
Then, she immediately changed her tune, saying, "Just tell me and Little Lan, and we'll help you get justice."
What? Why didn't you tell me?
Xiao Cui pouted, feeling suspected. Was she the kind of person who would kill her entire family to stand up for a friend?
(Yaochuan Guang: Hard to say)
--
After taking a shower, Cong Yu, whose hair was still wet, and Nagashima Koki, whose hair was still wet, had washed away the bloodstains.
Don't get me wrong, they definitely washed separately.
Damn it, the 22nd Group must have plenty of private bathrooms. You bunch of lolicon fans should really reflect on yourselves!
Pointing and commenting.
This time, everyone came to the 22nd Group to find Doctor, which obviously meant they had important business to attend to; Cong Yu and Xiao Xi were just there for some training beforehand.
By the time they finished their bath, the Doctor had already reached some conclusions regarding the Little Sprite's analysis.
"The Fairyland... the structure of their bodies..."
After pondering for a moment, the Doctor looked at Xiao Cui and tentatively asked, "Do you have a way to recreate the phenomenon of 'going to the Elf Land'?"
Xiao Cui naturally shook her head at this.
Hearing this, Nagashima Koki blinked, her face full of anticipation. "The Fairyland? Huh? What?!"
It seems that Nagashima Koki hasn't heard Xiao Cui mention this before.
From this, it seems that Xiao Cui is still very tight-lipped.
"So, before your journey to 'Elf Village' that night, did anything special happen? Did it leave any impression?"
Hmm, it doesn't seem like there's anything special about it.
"..." Seeing the magical girls exchanging bewildered glances but unable to offer an answer, the Doctor nodded knowingly. "I see, then this is troublesome."
Ultimately, it's a concept of "world".
If its reference point in the world is uncertain, and it cannot be reproduced, then it is extremely difficult to conduct research.
"An independent world."
The Doctor, who didn't have a deep understanding of this matter, looked at Cong Yu while muttering to himself... The only thing he knew about Cong Yu Jormungandr Train.
Yes, the Jormungandr Train is actually a concept similar to "Independent World," on the same level as "Li Township."
Even if it feels like a world, the space on the Jormungandr Train is actually quite small.
But what if the train's length were infinite?
To be more precise, the number of "carriages" on the Jormungandr Train is linked to the size of the "Mortal World"... infinitely close to infinity.
"Don't look at me like that, I don't really know either."
As she said this, Cong Yu looked at the Little Sprite sitting obediently on the table and thought of something, "Let the Little Sprite go back and see where its 'consciousness' has gone."
This isn't a good method, because the "consciousness" of the Little Sprite is something that's very difficult to observe... So, saying "look" is actually just letting Xiao Cui feel it.
You can only rely on your own feelings.
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
Then, under everyone's curious gaze, Xiao Cui dismissed the Little Sprite, then closed her eyes and tried to "feel" something, but it probably didn't work... at least that's what everyone thought.
"..."
"Tick-tock--"
"..."
"Hmm? Water... the sound of water?"
Xiao Cui opened her eyes, blinked, and asked in a questioning tone, "Did you hear that? It sounded like a drop of water."
Clearly, no one heard it.
"..."
"Tick-tock--"
Chapter 561 The Fairy Tale of the Fairyland
"Tick-tock--"
"..."
"Hmm..."
Xiao Cui groggily opened her eyes. Lying at Cong Yu's feet, she stared at the familiar ceiling... No, she still hadn't gone to the Fairyland.
However, the sound of water can always be heard.
Like dewdrops falling on the grass by the lake, the sound alone is beautiful, so light and melodious.
Without a doubt
This commotion came from the Fairyland.
However, Xiao Cui was still unable to go to the Fairyland again.
The only change was that she felt her sleep quality was getting worse and worse... though she didn't know if it was because of the sound of water.
In short, such noises can occur abruptly, yet leave one disoriented and creating a strange sense of incongruity.
While it's intriguing, Xiao Cui doesn't know how to pinpoint the location of the "dripping water" sound, and she feels she's bound to suffer a nervous breakdown sooner or later.
As for Xiao Cui, who slowly woke up and began to climb back onto her pillow, Cong Yu also opened her eyes, still feeling a little sleepy.
Just as Xiao Cui woke up, Cong Yu also woke up.
"Xiao Cui?"
Cong Yu spoke softly, while Xiao Cui, who had returned to her pillow and covered her head to block out the sound of dripping water, opened her eyes with dark circles under her eyes. "Hmm?"
Is Brother Cong Yu not asleep either?
Did I wake you up?
Xiao Cui looked at Cong Yu with some confusion and apology, "Brother Cong Yu is awake too... I think I was woken up by a dripping sound."
The sound of dripping water.
Cong Yu naturally knew what Xiao Cui was talking about... After all, ever since her trip to the Doctor, Xiao Cui had been hearing non-existent dripping sounds.
Of course, it probably exists, but the sound of dew dripping onto the lake surface probably only exists in the Fairyland.
"Was it the same last night?"
Cong Yu said this.
"Um."
Xiao Cui nodded her little head.
The clamor echoing in the dream, causing the host to have trouble sleeping... This description of the feeling is all too familiar.
It could even be said that Cong Yu deeply empathizes with this situation... What he experienced was far worse than what "Dewdrop" had gone through.
Because it's not just about making noise, it's about being persistent and incessant.
But that doesn't mean Xiao Cui is no longer in a bad situation.
And to be honest, if I had known that sending Xiao Cui to the Doctor to figure out about Fairyland would cause Fairyland to start making a fuss, I wouldn't have gone there in the first place.
It just goes to show that things can sometimes turn out unexpectedly.
Somewhat moved, Cong Yu reached out and patted Xiao Cui's head, trying to comfort her... At the same time, he pondered the principles of the Extinction Formula.
Yes, the principles of Extinction Formula.
It's a misconception that an Extinction Formula can target a specific host, even if that host doesn't necessarily have an urgent desire to World Destruction.
Source Darkness Apophis's desire to World Destruction is simply a reflection of its own personality and a matter of pure interest.
Extinction Formula is a technique whose very existence is a threat to the world.
It simply chooses hosts that suit its taste.
Of course, once a host has been chosen, the Extinction Formula cannot leave easily and will instead search the entire world for a suitable host.
In other words, something like Source Darkness.
Cong Yu initially seemed like the perfect host.
He is both detached from the world and seems to be able to see the predetermined future, and so arrogant that he seems to stand on the throne of heaven.
This is truly perfect, a perfect match!
As a result, Source Darkness found himself on an unlicensed vehicle, unable to get off... This might just be the true value of a host in northern Myanmar.
After discovering this, Source Darkness started babbling on and on all the time, but that was about all the usefulness he could muster...
As Cong Yu's heart gradually strayed from the concept of "loneliness," Source Darkness's ability to actively disturb Cong Yu was also restricted.
Just as Source Darkness was like this, so too was Xiao Cui's Fairyland.
However, Xiao Cui could not use this as an excuse to distance herself from the land of fairies.
Honestly, Fairyland is already quite mild and harmless for Extinction Formula. If possible, Cong Yu would like to make Source Darkness milder as well.
Unfortunately, it cannot be changed.
"Yawn--"
Xiao Cui yawned, blinked, and looked at Cong Yu, who was also lying on the bed, seemingly deep in thought.
"Tick-tock--"
Although the sound of dripping water still echoed from time to time, Xiao Cui inexplicably no longer found it noisy... It seemed that things had begun to quiet down.
Only after ignoring the noise of the dewdrops did I realize how quiet the world was.
Mmm...
Feeling peaceful, Xiao Cui nestled in Cong Yu's arms and fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by the faint sound of dripping water.
Meanwhile, Cong Yu was still pondering the details related to the Fairyland.
