Is the final boss finally about to appear?
"Get up, everyone. Watch me solo in a bit."
"I cleared it without taking any damage!"
"You're not even as big as one of the beast's toes, and you're unharmed? That's laughable."
"I hadn't even done anything yet, and Pretty God wiped me out. So boring, I'm never playing team fights with Pretty God again."
"..."
Ignoring the incessant chatter of his clone, Qin Ze kept his eyes fixed on the boiling lake surface.
It got brighter and brighter, and the bubbles that emerged became larger and denser.
With a "splash," a huge sun suddenly emerged from the lake and slowly rose into the sky.
The Source Land the Inner World was instantly plunged into eternal night.
Time in the world was paused at that moment.
The lake water no longer surges, the petals no longer sway, the breeze no longer blows...
Only Qin Ze and his clones were not subject to the time limit.
They are still free to move around.
The sun's rays gradually dimmed; although it still shone, it was no longer as dazzling.
Steps suddenly appeared beneath Qin Ze's feet, leading straight to the center of the sun, where a large black door appeared.
"It's inviting you in," Brother Devour said.
The Mist Lord, as always, remained steady. "Why not just blow up this sun as well? Who knows if there's a trap laid inside beforehand?"
After pondering for a moment, Qin Ze decided to personally attend this treacherous banquet.
The gaze that had been secretly observing him had not disappeared, and Qin Ze did not sense any malice in it.
Qin Ze wanted to see what the Balance Aberrant Beast was really up to.
Tap~ Tap~ Tap~
Qin Ze stepped up the stairs and walked step by step toward the door located at the center of the sun.
The other clones followed closely behind.
The gate was tightly shut.
There was a drawing on the door: a stick, an eye, a conch shell, and a pair of cute rabbits.
These patterns are connected to each other by lines.
As Qin Ze arrived at the gate, these lines and patterns lit up in turn.
Boom--
The heavy door slowly opened, revealing a brightly lit passageway behind it.
"I'll go first."
Giant Overlord took on the role of Brother Devour, walking at the very front.
This corridor is long and wide.
Picture frames hung on both sides of the corridor.
The frame doesn't contain a static painting, but rather a series of moving fragments.
These images come from the Inner World, from the surface world, from the royal capital, from the Nightshade Research Institute...
Some things belong to the past, while others are only in the present.
The duck sits in a split shape, reaching out its hand and casually fiddling with the image.
"Look, there's a progress bar here!"
"That's pretty high-tech."
The Sophist said nonchalantly, "What high technology is there? It's just surveillance footage. I didn't expect the Balance Aberrant Beast to be a voyeur with such a perverted quirk."
Qin Ze frowned slightly.
The Balance Aberrant Beast are monitoring the entire world.
At the end of the corridor was another door.
It was just an ordinary wooden door, without any formations or restrictions on it.
Qin Ze gave a gentle push, and a luxuriously decorated suite came into view.
Swish--
The moment the door was pushed open, a white sword light came rushing towards them.
The sword light wasn't aimed at Qin Ze, but at Miss Sword Case behind him.
"Ah!"
"My child!"
Miss Sword Case was overjoyed and immediately took flight.
The white flying sword and Miss Sword Case were intimately close, with the sword hilt rubbing against her body.
The other three flying swords also flew out at this moment, circling around Miss Sword Case and the white flying sword.
" Qin Ze, look! It's my child!"
Qin Ze was somewhat surprised that he found the metal-attribute flying sword so easily.
Welcome.
What would you like to drink?
"Beverages, tea, wine—we have it all."
A middle-aged man in a suit and tie walked over, carrying a bottle of red wine.
He had a smile on his face, like a kind and approachable uncle next door.
Qin Ze could not sense any aura of a powerful person from the man; he was just an ordinary person.
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow. " Balance Aberrant Beast?"
The man took two wine glasses from a shelf and poured in about a third of them.
"That's right."
You can call me Communion.
What's this?
The calm before the storm?
Qin Ze had imagined many different scenarios for his encounter with the Balance Aberrant Beast.
They might mock each other and talk trash, or they might get into a heated argument and fight it out.
I never imagined it would be this peaceful.
The Balance Aberrant Beast Communion looks like a butler.
Qin Ze, on the other hand, seemed like a young master who had just returned home from a long journey.
"You have the aura of the other four guys on you; it seems you've already met them."
"Come on, let's sit down and talk."
Communion sat down first and then pointed to the chair opposite him.
Qin Ze sat down in front of him, while his clones stood behind him like bodyguards.
Duck, sitting in his clone, said on the Local Area Network: "The local gang is quite polite, serving tea and water."
Miss Sword Case was having so much fun playing with her gold-attribute flying sword that she completely forgot her good friend was still "confronting" the monster.
Qin Ze released his mental energy to confirm that there was no one else in the house besides them.
Where is the Sword Bearer?
Communion put down his wine glass, spread his hands, and said, "Far away, yet right before my eyes."
Qin Ze frowned. "Aren't you Balance Aberrant Beast?"
Communion smiled, "I am Balance Aberrant Beast, but I am also the Sword Bearer of the Balance Aberrant Beast."
"There's no contradiction between the two, is there?"
There is no Sword Bearer.
Is he lying, or is there really no Sword Bearer?
Miss Sword Case then transmitted her voice, "I asked the children, and it was just the two of them together the whole time; there was no third party involved."
He wasn't lying; there really is no Sword Bearer.
Seeing Qin Ze's furrowed brows relax, Communion asked, "How did it go? Have you confirmed things with that Lady Sword Case?"
"I am truly the Sword Bearer of myself."
"By the way, the Soul Orb is in the cabinet on the right, on the first shelf of the second row."
Qin Ze glanced at the Giant Overlord beside him.
Giant Overlord opened the cabinet door, took out a small, square sandalwood box, and handed it to Qin Ze.
Qin Ze used his mental power to sense it and found that it was indeed an ordinary box, and it wasn't locked.
Upon opening the box, a radiant Soul Orb lay quietly inside.
The Soul Orb is white in color, resembling a Zhenzhu, with four streams of light constantly rotating around its surface.
Qin Ze closed the box and looked at Communion in surprise. "You took out your own Soul Orb?"
The thought process of Communion is a bit off.
Of course, it's also difficult to judge what kind of thought process Master Desolate has.
They simply and openly handed the metal-attribute flying sword to the Demigod Level beast.
Communion swirled his wine glass. "Yes, is there a problem?"
Qin Ze didn't know what to say.
Is there a problem?
Of course!
You're a mythical beast; how could you take out your own Soul Orb?
"Keep the Soul Orb safe. If you lose it, it has nothing to do with me."
To claim that "Communion " absolves oneself of all responsibility is absurd.
"Now that you've obtained the Soul Orb, let's get down to business."
Communion looked into Qin Ze's eyes. "Tell me, what are your feelings about this world?"
