Lu Ning walked into the room. Since there was no place to sit, she simply stood next to Qisha, while Ana gently closed the door.
"Qisha, I know that you are not interested in me. This is the cooperation that I actively seek from you. However, if I am not mistaken, the only person who can truly be called a high-end combat power in Aurora is you, the earthly dust and the ascetic monk. It’s different, you are the only pillar of Aurora, and you should know that if you can’t take action at will, it will be difficult for the people under you to compete with them.”
Qisha raised her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "At least they are stronger than you. Their strength has been verified by me."
"Of course, when it comes to fighting, I am naturally not as good as them who can join the fight at any time. But I have another advantage, as you will probably understand. I am a 'legal resident' of this world." Lu Ning laughed.
Qisha snorted coldly: "I knew it from the first moment I saw you."
"It's not just me." Lu Ning said, "I think you don't like the intrigues among us. I don't have the intention to bother you with this. Now I just want to know the ultimate goal of Aurora coming to this world. What is it, so that I can cooperate with you in taking action."
"...You actually lower your posture so low." Qisha held up her hand and rolled out of bed. She was about half a head taller than Lu Ning. She stared sharply into Lu Ning's eyes, seeming to determine whether Lu Ning was there. Tell the truth.
"Because I want to solve all this, as...a resident of this world." Lu Ning said.
"Okay." Qisha nodded simply, "Then let me tell you, what I want to do is to take away all the uniqueness of this world. To be more specific, I want to take away the 'mantra' rules of this world. "
Although Lu Ning didn't guess this goal in detail, he could roughly compare the purpose of the Earthly Ashes and make an estimate. She thought for a moment and asked: "Then, you should know that this world has formed a connection with the mantra. If the mantra is taken away, will it cause any damage?"
"Of course." Qisha replied, "Have you ever seen anyone who can get rid of chronic diseases without leaving scars? Besides, the two have become entangled to such an extent. I will leave something that can be called a legend of gods and monsters in this world and continue to spread. But I will take all the parts that belong to the mantra and leave nothing behind. This is the most valuable thing to me, and the nobles don’t like it anyway.”
"Is this the ability you have?" Lu Ning glanced at the three things placed in front of Qisha, "They are..."
"It's just something I took out as a reference. It's a very precise thing to strip away the mantra while preventing the world from completely collapsing. Don't think this is a good thing. I don't intend to be particularly perfect. I can't make that mistake. Spending so much effort on a world that has nothing to do with me." Qisha said coldly.
"Okay, okay. So, what do you need to do this? Or...what do you need us to do?"
"The same thing I asked my crew to do. The more I know about the mantra rules of this world, the more control I have over the entire stripping process. If you can get some that I can't get here, I I don’t mind learning more about it. Now I have completed the explanation of the mantra’s function in the entire inland area. However, the information in my hand is still lacking in the form of seaports and seas. Since you think you can do it, then How about I leave these two parts to you?”
Qisha's expression showed that this was just an experiment. If Lu Ning couldn't complete it, she also had other ways to complete it. Lu Ning didn't care. After all, she came to the door on her own. It was natural for Qisha not to trust her. There was no problem in proving it a little.
"I agree, but it will take time."
"That's your own business. You have as much time as you have left in your world." Qisha glanced at it, and the three items automatically bounced up and fell into her open hands.
Ana was speechless: "Captain Qisha, are you going to..."
"When you are investigating for me, of course you have to bring a token to feed back all the information as quickly as possible. Lu Ning, World Tree, Star Stone, Genesis Record, which one do you want to use as your token?"
Lu Ning felt a little dizzy until she walked out of the house. She reached out and touched her shoulder. There was a hard bump on the shoulder blade, and a small stone had been embedded there.
The Star Stone - a stone that symbolizes stars, space, infinity and divinity, is itself the embodiment of a rule that Qi Sha once stripped away. Now, the one embedded in Lu Ning's body has not only improved her physical strength and resilience, It even contained a hint of god-like protective ability, which completely eliminated the light crack interference she suffered at all times.
In contrast, probably all of Lu Ning's explorations of the sea and harbors will be gathered into information and transmitted to Qisha. Qisha even generously gave Lu Ning five more Star Stones to give to her so-called "friends" to assist in the exploration.
Therefore, although Qisha's attitude was cold, her actions were very generous. This was because Lu Ning did not consider her one of her own at all. It would be better if she treated her as one of her own... No wonder Hu Quan and others followed her wholeheartedly.
"Oh, Miss Qisha is still so difficult to get along with..." Ana sighed as she took out her car keys.
"Have you known each other before?"
"Aurora is a famous rising star. Qisha's power is coveted by many people. Except for the nobles, others either want to recruit her or seize the basis of her ability... Of course, you know the result. She was alone in the beginning. , and the target is relatively far away, so it is not obvious. Some time ago, she suddenly began to gather people, and the scale of Aurora expanded rapidly. And each of these people can be regarded as people she picked up, and each one is stronger than the other. The previous king's When Ghost resurrected, it purged several top teams, and Aurora came from behind."
"That's it..." Lu Ning really wanted to hear what happened after she left.
"Of course, everyone knows Qisha's past. Her family is very wealthy, with more than a hundred factories alone. Her daily pocket money is enough for the workers below to survive for a lifetime. With money and power, she started She has gone on to pursue higher spiritual satisfaction in elite education, and now anyone who is in a mixed group knows that Qisha is a young lady."
"What about her parents?"
"No more." Ana said lightly. "Money and power are just a passing cloud in our place. You don't know that the huge dissatisfaction caused by the extremely expanding gap between rich and poor caused a group of people to risk their lives in the manor where they lived, triggering a high-level epidemic." During the alarm incident, her parents and many wealthy people were turned into glass in that incident. That incident was ultimately handled by Dacapo, and that’s how Qisa got to know Xixi.”
Lu Ning didn't expect this development, but it was quite common there.
"We didn't know at first that Qisha was actually acting with us. Hey...Eh?"
Ana had just started the car when she suddenly sniffed. Lu Ning fastened her seat belt and glanced at her: "Did you smell something again?"
"A... fishy smell. Hey! Lu Ning, our guy who has been squatting for several days may finally be able to bear it no more! Let's go!"
"Hey you——"
Fortunately, the first thing she did when she got into the car was to fasten her seat belt, otherwise Ana would have almost thrown her out of the car. The car turned around and drove quickly towards the base.
Ana herself has undergone many transformations. Not only her sense of smell, but also her vision, hearing and other aspects can be adjusted at any time. Normally, in order to enjoy the life of ordinary people, she would not turn it on all the way. But at this moment, she has obviously turned it on in her excited state. All sensory detection capabilities are adjusted to the maximum, and the target is very clear.
"Lan Tu! I smell one! They started to act secretly, let's start arresting people! We must catch them all!" Ana turned on the communicator and shouted.
"The captain has gone out. Now Dansheng and I are looking after the house." Dorothy's somewhat depressed voice came from the communicator.
"Hahaha, I'm probably afraid that you guys will go out and kill them directly."
"Ana, please control yourself and don't over-secret hormones..."
"Understand, understand! Wait!"
As the car approached the direction of the base, it rushed down the dirt road and drove bumpily towards a nearby bush. Lu Ning held on to the car door tightly, trying not to be thrown off by Ana, but still I was dizzy.
When the car finally stopped, Ana rushed out of the car door like a leopard, casually pulled out a wrench from under the seat, used her legs to exert strength, and rushed into the woods in a few steps. Lu Ning got out of the car unsteadily, rubbed his temples, and then chased after him.
Before she could actually pass, she heard the sound of fighting.
Ana has knocked over two of them and is now fighting fiercely with the remaining two. However, the two mantra believers who had practiced martial arts were still no match for Ana. Within two minutes, each of them received a blow on the head and fell to the ground instantly. After Ana defeated everyone, she rushed into the forest again. At this moment, a large net fell directly from above.
"Hey!"
Ana's fingernails suddenly grew longer, and she cut them with her hand, but the net was quite strong. Only a few ropes were cut off, and the remaining net was still enough to cover Ana. When Lu Ning looked at the net, he suddenly felt a familiar feeling. He immediately touched his hand behind his waist, pulled out the sharp kitchen knife, rushed over and cut the rope of the net with a knife, and there was a sudden sound from the tree. Two screams.
Ana immediately broke away from the net bag, grabbed the net bag and pulled it twice, a little surprised: "Who here can come up with such a strong material?"
"I think I know who it is." Lu Ning held up the kitchen knife and looked into the forest, "Shenyuan City plotted against me. I didn't expect to see you here again... Where is the one named Yu Po?"
"She didn't come here."
There was a sound above her head. Lu Ning raised her head and saw a thread connecting two trees. A man in a suit and leather shoes was sitting on the thread, looking down at the two people with a somewhat unhappy expression.
"I didn't expect that the shot at that time actually failed to kill you directly. It shows how unsafe Yu Po's abilities are. I should have done it myself, but now that I have encountered it, it can be regarded as an opportunity to make up for it. "The man turned over from the line and landed lightly on the ground. Both Lu Ning and Ana saw that there were many thin threads behind him, shooting out around like a web and coiling everywhere, but they were different from the thick threads and were difficult to detect.
"Spider spirit?" Ana sniffed, "But it smells like a human being. Are there any true believers like this?"
"Believers? No, I am the leader, please understand." The man emphasized, "Even if you are going to die, please die with the correct impression."
As soon as he finished speaking, a grid arranged neatly vertically and horizontally suddenly appeared on the ground. Lu Ning's pupils shrank, and she slashed the kitchen knife on the spot, drawing a large arc directly on her side, while Ana jumped up to the big tree next to her. The vertical and horizontal cutting lines that suddenly rose from the ground were avoided by the two of them, but the man had already rushed forward.
"He actually dared to attack?" Ana was surprised.
"Be careful with his ability to control the line!" Lu Ning swung the kitchen knife and faced him. No matter how special the man's ability was, he would never dare to use the kitchen knife forcefully.
When the two got closer to three meters, the man suddenly stretched his hands forward, and a large amount of white silk threads had already circled and gathered on his hands, forming the shape of a picture. Lu Ning swung the kitchen knife and struck forward. Unexpectedly, the man immediately cut off the connection between his hands and the thread. The blade cut the pattern in half, but the large and scattered silk thread rushed towards Lu Ning and twisted towards her neck and hands.
Lu Ning casually turned the knife towards the back of the knife, swept all the threads coming from the air into a ball and threw it aside. He took out a flash bomb with his left hand, pulled the ring and smashed it into the man's face.
"snort."
The thread twisted into a spiral spike in the man's hand, and instantly penetrated the flash bomb. The internal device was destroyed in an instant, and the flash bomb only produced a faint flame. But at this moment, Lu Ning came forward with the knife again, and struck the spiral thorn in the man's hand with the knife, but she didn't expect the man to cut off the thread in time again.
It's really tricky.
Ability does not lie in how strong or weak it looks, but in whether the user knows how to use it. Previously, Lu Ning had mostly dealt with people who relied on their powerful superpowers to act recklessly. As long as she caught the opponent's loopholes, she could defeat the enemy with one move. But this man who controlled the line, to put it bluntly, the power he used was not too weird or terrifying, but because of his command of this method, Lu Ning was unable to find any flaws for a while!
"Don't forget me!"
Ana suddenly shouted angrily from above her head.
She can produce a roaring sound that is as shocking as the roar of a ferocious beast. Lu Ning had known that she had undergone similar transformations and was prepared, but the man obviously paused for half a second because of this sound, which was the half-second opportunity to let Ah Na hit his head with a wrench from behind.
But...it doesn't feel solid. Lu Ning and Ana had this feeling at the same time.
"The hair... is also linear." The man's body suddenly moved three meters away, "My head is protected by my hair, which can remove the force of many attacks. But you... don't seem to be either. Ordinary people, you made a mistake."
Ana snorted: "I knew I would have put in more effort just now."
The man chuckled lightly and adjusted his collar: "My surname is Shao. People call me Mr. Shao, which is an honorific title for me as the leader of the 'Xian' mantra believers. Now I know how to deal with you."
