Before going to the library, the Dragon Tail Dagger in Si Yan's hand suddenly began to flash with golden light, and there was also a faint suction force pulling him away.
The four people looked at the dagger and slowly moved forward, drawn by its suction.
"A tunnel leading to the church's underground."
Jiang Nuo opened the brick, and strangely enough, even the mark he made when he first came in was still there.
Everything in both towns is a complete replica.
" The Divine Tree."
Si Yan sensed the tracking spell cast on the Divine Tree.
He quickened his pace and ran off, with the three of them close behind.
In the same location, only Si Yan could still see it, but the shape of the Divine Tree had changed, and the hanging heart and corpse had shrunk even further.
It's as if the Divine Tree is constantly absorbing nutrients, its roots sinking deep into the ground.
Jiang Nuo waved her hand in front of him, "Why are you still staring blankly?"
Qi Cang narrowed his gray pupils, unable to see what was there, but he could sense a power that posed a great threat to him.
"There's a demonic aura here. Something's wrong."
Jiang Nuo thought for a moment, then hoisted the cannon onto Si Yan's shoulder. "We can't see it, so you blast the Divine Tree."
Si Yan caught the cannon, his brows furrowed, instinctively feeling that the Divine Tree could not be destroyed.
" Nuonuo, I want to go down and take a look."
"Okay, let's go." Jiang Nuo took his hand.
Si Yan pursed her lips, worried that the Divine Tree might harm Jiang Nuo, "I want to go down and see for myself..."
Jiang Nuo: "Give it a try."
His eyes crinkled with laughter.
Si Yan: "..."
"You have to know when to back down," Si Yan quietly put her arm around Jiang Nuo's waist. "Come on, let's go down together."
The two jumped down and returned to the pit they had fallen into.
Qi Lin and Qi Cang were guarding above.
Jiang Nuo didn't like the pit at all. After getting down, she had a tense face and crossed her arms while looking at Si Yan.
Si Yan looked left and right, as if observing the Divine Tree, while the dagger in her hand continued to flash with golden light.
He glanced down at it, then looked up at the Divine Tree, trying to see if his heart and the Dragon Tail Dagger were connected.
When the gloved, slender fingers touched the heart at the very top of the Divine Tree, the Dragon Tail Dagger immediately sensed it and guided Si Yan to cut off the heart.
From Si Yan's perspective, the shrunken heart at the top fell, and the other ugly heads and dark red hearts hanging there all fell down in unison, like fruits falling to the ground, without any warning.
Si Yan dodged, and the dagger in her hand seemed to be summoned, shooting straight upwards and embedding itself at the top of the Divine Tree.
Click--
The sound of tree bark cracking could be heard.
Jiang Nuo heard it too, and pulled Si Yan back. The two people above the pit squatted down to look down. Qi Lin asked, "What happened?"
The Divine Tree shattered completely, and the Dragon Tail Dagger, formed from the phantom of the Dragon Vein, returned to its place, radiating brilliant golden light.
The true form of the Dragon Vein was revealed, but there was no sign of a golden dragon taking flight as there had been in Fragrant Tree Village.
The moment the dragon's roar resounded, the crowd felt not only awe, but also a shared sense of pain.
"Holy crap... why am I crying when I hear this voice?"
[The dragon's roar I heard in Fragrant Tree Village last time didn't feel like this... It's amazing.]
Si Yan frowned, slowly reaching out to cover her chest, feeling a tightness in her chest.
"It's in great pain," Si Yan said softly. "It's pleading for help from the people of Hua Country it's protecting."
The golden light of the Dragon Vein disappeared after a few breaths, and Jiang Nuo clearly sensed a dense Demonic Qi, which was the very thing suppressing the Dragon Vein.
If the demons knew what they were doing, why would they allow the Dragon Vein to be awakened?
Jiang Nuo felt that the demon they were dealing with this time was different from the vengeful ghosts they had encountered before. It seemed to have its own set of rules and standards, and it couldn't wait to turn the entire town into its playground of rules.
Anything done within the rules is permitted by them.
This standard is somewhat like... a monster boss created by the system in a dungeon.
[0732.]
[I am here.]
[Besides the players, will monster bosses also come to this world?]
[meeting.]
Jiang Nuo fell completely silent, her expression growing cold.
[Please continue solving the mystery.]
"... Nuonuo?" Si Yan gently hugged him. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Jiang Nuo pinched the bridge of her nose, gently nuzzling against Si Yan's chest to remain calm.
"Let's go to the library."
--
Hello everyone, it's great to see you again!
Tang Mu seemed very familiar with Qi Cang, whom he was meeting for the first time, and waved to him, looking no different from the Tang Mu in the other space town.
Or perhaps... there is no other space at all.
Jiang Nuo pondered for a moment, then chuckled softly and leaned closer to Tang Mu, "Hello, old friend, let me see your book!"
His tone was cheerful, but it sent chills down Tang Mu's spine, as if he would be beaten if he didn't show it to him.
Tang Mu shifted his small body, grumbling in a strange tone, "No... no! Only the administrator can see this book."
"That's easy, I'll apply for your administrator position now." Jiang Nuo still smiled, looking like a weirdo bullying a child.
He slowly approached, a pair of handcuffs appearing in his palm, the silver chains swinging back and forth. "You don't want to get beaten up by me, do you?"
"Aaaaaah--You can't bully the administrator!! I'm going to call someone to arrest you!"
Tang Mu started yelling and tried to run away, but Jiang Nuo grabbed him by the back of his collar and threw him to Si Yan like a winter melon.
Si Yan caught it, swung it around in the air twice, and said in a haughty tone with a hint of disdain, before tossing it to Qi Cang.
"Aaaaaah! Let me go! Let me go!"
Tang Mu tried to resist, but his negligible magic was no match for Si Yan and Qi Cang, and he was left dizzy and disoriented.
Jiang Nuo: "Hehe."
He ran behind the giant red book; one page was half a person's height.
The first time Jiang Nuo came to the library, she also peeked at the giant red book, but she couldn't see anything inside.
This time, it doesn't look like there's any trickery involved.
The page that Tang Mu had just opened was of the town they had "escaped" from, along with portraits of Si Yan and Su Yi, jumping into a black river, leaving the town that had melted away with the mannequins, and arriving in another town.
Jiang Nuo observed for a while, then peeked out from behind the book and asked Tang Mu, "Is this a prophecy or a record?"
Tang Mu sobbed and refused to speak.
Qi Cang tightened his grip, his eyes turning cold. "Speak quickly, or I'll strangle you."
Waaaaah... I won't tell!
Tang Mu was like a little radish next to Qi Cang; not only could he not beat him, but he would also get beaten up if he struggled.
It trembled as it stretched out its strange hand, its eyes brimming with tears as it looked at Qi Lin, "Save me! Save me!"
Qi Lin blinked in confusion and patted its arm, "No."
"Ugh! I hate you Tang Mu! I 'Tang Mu going to capture you all and feed you all to the man-eating demons!"
Tang Mu wept bitterly, tears streaming down her face, her voice filled with sorrow.
The four people looked at him indifferently, only Jiang Nuo had a smile in her eyes.
Tang Mu: "... Hiccup, it's a record book, not a prophecy book!"
Jiang Nuo scrolled forward, and the pages that appeared were all small towns, but the reasons for their disappearance were different—some were burned, some were flooded, and the people who escaped in the images were also different.
Jiang Nuo suddenly stopped on the first few pages and saw a somewhat familiar face.
