Luo Fan stood at the edge of the woods, his gaze settling on Fang Lin. He pointed toward the violently churning spacetime anomaly over the pool. "What's going on here? Why is there such a commotion?"
Fang Lin held nothing back and told him everything she knew.
She said she and her teammates had been traveling through the dense forest, looking for a suitable summoned beast for her, when the scenery before them suddenly changed.
Without warning, the dense forest that blotted out the sky vanished, replaced by a cliff waterfall and a pool.
She had glanced back then. The dense forest was still behind her, but the world ahead had changed completely.
Then a woman wearing a bright red wedding gown walked out of the forest.
Fang Lin noticeably paused at this point, seemingly weighing her words.
The woman stood bathed in sunlight, yet her skin neither burned nor smoked. She showed none of the reactions a weird should have had.
She claimed to be a sequence user who had used a transformation skill, saying she had taken on a weird's appearance to move around more easily at night.
Later, she canceled her transformation in front of them, but afterward, she still looked like a weird, only with a different face.
She said this was a side effect of the skill. Having spent too long transformed into a weird, she could not return to human form in the short term.
After that, another team identical to theirs appeared, followed immediately by another weird in a bright red wedding gown.
The two women walked into the pool together and sat cross-legged, seemingly sensing something.
Fang Lin said she and her teammates had also tried sensing it, but felt nothing. It was just an ordinary pool, and the water was cold.
