The bedroom is well soundproofed, so now we don't need to keep our voices down as much as before.

After learning that Bai Lili had arranged everything—the hospital, the ward, and even the doctors they had just hired— Xiwang Bai Lili thanked her.

"Thank you for taking care of my brother!"

Seeing the girl in the wheelchair bow so formally to her, Bai Lili was startled and hurriedly moved away.

"No, no, no! It's always been your brother who has taken care of us. We're the ones who should be thanking him!"

Seeing this, the others also expressed their sincere gratitude to Qiji, especially to Xiwang.

The result was that the scene became—

As soon as Xiwang finished bowing and straightened up, Bai Lili and the other three bowed back to her in unison, as if they were having a competition to see who could bow the deepest...

Xiwang was completely stunned.

So, what exactly did my brother do at school???

She could understand when the purple-haired man bowed to her, after all, her brother had just saved her life.

But these few...

Did my brother save them all?

After several rounds of polite exchanges, the atmosphere finally began to ease.

Although Xiwang spends most of her time at home, besides her brother, she only has one friend she can talk to, so she doesn't have much experience in communicating with people.

But after only a short while, she began to handle things with ease and composure.

This scene even made Setsuna, who came from a prominent family and Setsuna very strict upbringing, feel a sense of kinship.

Suddenly, Setsuna became even more curious about the background of the Qiji siblings.

Before leaving home, Xiwang deliberately applied light makeup to conceal her Echo Erosion Syndrome.

Her Echo Erosion Syndrome had led to her being told she wouldn't live past five years old at birth, but after meeting her brother, it was as if Miracle had occurred to her.

Her symptoms Miracle subsided.

Today, she can even manipulate her Heart Essence, suppressing it for a short period of time, and with some makeup tricks, make herself look no different from an ordinary person.

No, there's still something different...

Because she was in a wheelchair.

Xiwang could tell that when she appeared in the ward, although her brother's classmates tried to restrain themselves, they would still occasionally glance at her legs.

However, everyone tacitly agreed not to bring up the topic.

Given this, Xiwang naturally wouldn't bring it up on his own initiative.

At this moment, Xiwang's attention was mostly focused on the three girls.

She is discerning—

Who poses no threat, who can be approached, and who should be guarded against?

The Sea of Consciousness.

A bright red beam of light shot into the sky.

In an instant, the thick fog covering a radius of a hundred miles was completely dispelled, and the sky Sea of Consciousness was filled with crimson.

[Bite!]

Congratulations on winning—

[Vector Lineage Fragment - Instantaneous Launch (Myth)!]

[After use, Vector Lineage speed is increased by 45%!]

Looking at the Myth Fragment in his hand, Qiji's heart skipped a beat.

The image of him and Charles together can be simply described in four words:

"Extreme joy and extreme sorrow".

Qiji overjoyed.

As for Charles, who lay motionless on the ground, he was naturally the one suffering the greatest sorrow.

The latter is like an incompetent husband, watching helplessly as Qiji takes away his beloved, unable to even utter a single "no."

At that moment, Charles felt like dying!

He even wished that the Sea of Consciousness would quickly obliterate his spirit so that he wouldn't have to suffer the torment of watching this scene anymore.

Myth Fragment! These are Myth Fragment!

Even for the Isolde Family, it is a priceless treasure!

At this moment, Charles felt utterly hopeless.

Destroy him, he's so tired!

Meanwhile, Charles ' four teammates stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

They were unaware that Qiji could freely choose fragments and even bypass the "solidification" restriction, so they simply thought that Charles was an idiot.

—This guy had been saying all along that he hadn't refined his Myth Fragment yet, and they all thought that Charles would at least have Conceptual Creation that could solidify the fragments.

Unexpectedly, this guy really didn't take any safety precautions before entering the Sea of Consciousness!

They could only silently admire him in their hearts:

Awesome!

Is this the foundation of a powerful and influential family?

They don't even care if Myth Fragment are leaked?

The moment the Myth Fragment were born, a strange phenomenon descended upon the Sea of Consciousness!

The entire surface layer of the Sea of Consciousness was disturbed at this moment.

Qiji didn't dare to delay. He quickly touched the remaining four boxes, and then, carrying the gifts of nature—one red, one gold, one purple, and two blue—he ran away as soon as he finished touching them!

That was fucking thrilling!

After receiving the Blessing, Qiji was prepared for a protracted battle...

Unexpectedly, within just two hours of entering, he had already gathered all the materials needed for the perfect awakening of the Echo Core!

There are still more good people than bad in the Sea of Consciousness!

Qiji will never forget Dorothy, who sponsored Golden Shards during the early stages of his career.

When he ascends the throne, she'll definitely reap the rewards!

What, you mean Charles?

Qiji hasn't even settled the score with him yet for "the Isolde Family stealing his Myth Fragment"!

The fragments of the Charles's Myth Fragment should have rightfully belonged to him!

As Qiji ran, he opened the system map, and what he saw shocked him.

This time, the situation is a thousand times, ten thousand times more severe than when he withdrew his funds last time!

After all, Legend Fragment are merely anomalies within a few miles, but Myth Fragment are practically a server-wide announcement!

This is also the "self-protection" mechanism of the Sea of Consciousness:

For the Sea of Consciousness, the Echoer's login is akin to an invasion.

Every fragment the Echoer brought out of the Sea of Consciousness was equivalent to excavating the very foundation of the Sea of Consciousness.

Therefore, the higher the level of the fragment, the more the Sea of Consciousness will try to prevent the Echoer from taking it away.

At this very moment, all the third to fifth-order Echoer on the surface of the Sea of Consciousness received the coordinates of the Myth Fragment sent to them by the Sea of Consciousness.

In an instant, Qiji, who had run away with the Echo Fragment, became the most dazzling star in the entire Sea of Consciousness!

The third-tier Echoer, already on the edge of the zone, immediately sprinted towards Qiji.

Fourth-order Echoer from the Deep Zone also began to set off.

Even the fifth-tier Echoer in the more distant core area were alarmed!

Qiji looked at the countless red dots surging towards him on the minimap—

No, it can hardly be called a little red dot anymore!

The tiny red dots are densely packed together, like a red tide!

It's so Qiji, it's giving me trypophobia!

Holy crap!!!

This time, Qiji was truly panicked.

No, is such a big fuss really necessary?

It's just a Myth Fragment, is it really necessary to go this crazy?

Why do you all act like you've never seen the world before...?

So, can he really escape safely with the Myth Fragment?

Even with his cheat-like abilities, Qiji couldn't help but start to worry about his own life.

His cheat codes seem a bit too low...

The most frustrating thing is that, due to the special nature of the Myth Fragment, Qiji can only evacuate by going to designated "conditional evacuation points".

You need to pay a specified amount of Echo Fragment, or kill a certain number of Echoer...

This is because only such special evacuation points have sufficient stability to withstand the consciousness shocks caused by the passage of Myth Fragment.

But these "conditional evacuation points" have all been marked out by the trench's Sea of Consciousness at this very moment!

All Echoer can see it!

In other words, even if Qiji rushes there at top speed right now, he is very likely to be blocked by the prepared Echoer at the evacuation point...

For a moment, Qiji was genuinely sweating.

He had finally reunited with the Myth Fragment he had lost for so many years in the Sea of Consciousness; what if it all turned out to be a false alarm...?

Think of a way, think of a way quickly!

As Qiji ran frantically toward his small boat, he racked his brains.

Got it!

Qiji suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he pulled out the two fragments, one gold and one red, and stuffed them into his mouth.

He is now under the "Infinite Weakening" buff!

Is it possible that this Infinite Weakening buff could even weaken the Sea of Consciousness " aura of the Myth Fragment?

Qiji swallowed the fragment whole.

Of course, since Qiji is currently in a spirit state, the so-called swallowing action is just a formality.

A more accurate statement is that Qiji absorbed the two fragments into his spirit.

However, the unfolding scenario that Qiji had hoped for did not occur the next second.

Instead, Qiji's entire spirit began to glow red, like a running red light bulb...

This action not only failed to conceal his presence, but instead made him even more conspicuous in the thick fog of the Sea of Consciousness.

Damn it!

Qiji stared anxiously at the approaching red dot on the map.

Fortunately, he also has three life-saving "Speed Blessing".

The third-tier Echoer was far slower than him, and even the fourth-tier Echoer might not be able to outrun him once on the ship.
