At 11 o'clock at night, Qiluo's door opened a thin crack. The pink-haired girl looked around furtively, then ran through the corridor in her pajamas and plush slippers, and came to the door of another crew member and knocked on it.
"Who is it? It's so late at night." The voice in the room was as lazy as mud.
"It's me, I have something to discuss."
The door opened automatically, and Rei Shigure, who was dressed coolly, was lying on the armchair applying a facial mask. From a distance, she looked like a graceful white-faced female ghost. Qiluo sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to her thigh: "Wow, wow, wow, it's so smooth and tempting..."
"Put your paws away and touch your own." Shigurei put away his feet, "What are you doing to me?"
Qiluo hugged the pillow and lay down on the bed: "I suspect that Gongsun Ce and Qin Qianbai are possessed by dead souls!"
"Your AI imagination is far beyond that of ordinary people."
"No kidding, seriously." Qiluo said with a tight face, "Do you know how Gongsun Ce spent the past day and a half? He was just talking to himself in the room and walking around. He would go out as he walked. He opened the door and then wandered back and forth like a sleepwalker, not even knowing where he was. I personally saw him walking around the dining table for half an hour and he didn't respond when I called him."
"Oh, there's something even more terrifying that you haven't seen yet."
"What is it?"
Rei Shigure took off the mask: "He came in when I was going to the bathroom tonight, and he muttered in front of me for half a minute."
Kirara gasped: "Shigure Rei, didn't you use force?"
"I threw him back to the bathroom of my house to sober up." Shigure Rei said weakly, "He is really mentally ill! He has been acting like this ever since the Dawn Knight entered his house the night before yesterday. What on earth did they do!"
"Don't ask me if I haven't read it. I always respect your privacy." Qiluo muttered, "But I still feel so resentful. I didn't even have time to wear my boyfriend's shirt..."
"Your otaku's focus is really weird. What's the point of wearing other people's clothes?" Shigure Rei squinted, "Besides, you still have a competitive mentality when you're in love. I doubt you'll be saying this love quote in a few years. I haven’t heard that yet’.”
"It has nothing to do with competition! Even though I have experienced many battles in the entertainment industry, this is the first time I have seen such a terrifying woman." Qiluo was full of crisis, "She even wore Gongsun Ce's T-shirt openly in the boat. , what a declaration of sovereignty! Her meanness is so strong that it makes my fingertips numb!"
"Although I don't know what a otaku's slang is about being humble, I know you're overthinking it." Shigure Rei said, "She would do this just because the clothes are comfortable to wear. The high-grade fabrics produced in Cangdu have automatic temperature control. The body-adaptive ones make you too lazy to take them off after wearing them for a long time.”
"Why are you so sure?"
"Nonsense, when I was working, I had been looking at that fabric for a long time, and I wouldn't take it off even if I was wearing it." Rei Shigure had a subtle expression on his face, "Besides, do you think the Dawn Knight is as in love as you are? Don’t you want anything else but men?”
Qiluo picked up the pillow and smashed it: "I just have a sense of crisis! I have no power to restrain a chicken. It's not like you super strong men who fly in the sky don't have your self-confidence that is made of copper poured into iron... …”
"If you lack metal elements, replace your body with a prosthetic body. A 100% metal product is guaranteed to be harder than any other girl's heart. When the time comes, you will be truly hard-hearted, so why worry about the softness in your heart."
"Shigure Rei, go away!"
Qiluo threw the pillow over and threw herself on the bed angrily. Rei Shigure caught the pillow with one hand and grinned evilly, poking her arm with his toes.
"Sister, you don't have to worry about this problem at all. Everyone in this family is good at creating conflicts, but you are the only one who can ease conflicts. If you are unhappy one day, this family will have to break your muscles and bones. Do you know that it is impossible?"
"You actually used 'this home' so naturally..." Qiluo exclaimed.
"What else can it be if it's not a home? My boyfriend is having an affair with his affair partner No. 1234?" Rei Shigure sneered, "What's wrong with the little girl? I see that she has been concentrating on practicing martial arts for two days and is in good condition."
"Qin Qianbai's situation is even worse." Qiluo adjusted back to normal, "She didn't even have dinner today!"
"Oh my God, is it so serious?!" Rei Shigure was shocked when he heard this.
Miss Qin is a girl who loves life and has a regular schedule. These two characteristics are particularly obvious in her diet. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all guaranteed. At three o'clock we have some sweets for afternoon tea, and at eight o'clock we have some midnight snacks. Even when she usually goes on a mission, the first thing she does when she comes back is to make up for her meal. Such a girl forgetting to eat one day is like saying that Qiluo didn't sing one day. That means she has not practiced martial arts to the point of concentration, which makes people wonder if she has gone too far.
"And Qin Qianbai also seemed very absent-minded. She went to the wrong room at noon today and almost fell asleep on my bed." Qiluo shook her head repeatedly, "She got into my bed and I shook her for a long time before she realized that she was in the wrong place. I I suspect her IQ will plummet if she continues like this. She has already started to say 'meh'!"
Rei Shigure took a breath of air: "Hiss... call the Dawn Knight over and ask her what her plans are. I think something will happen if this continues."
"Why do you have a preconceived idea that Alandia must have a solution?" Qiluo was unconvinced.
"You're kidding, who do you think she is? You were still hanging your throat in the park when people were killing everyone. Call someone out quickly."
Alandia arrived in the bedroom two minutes later, wearing her thick nightgown and nightcap. She looked like an aristocratic lady from the royal capital who had traveled through time three hundred years ago. Qiluo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a good thing that Alandia didn't mistake that T-shirt as pajamas.
"I have decided to take measures against the two of them tomorrow morning." The Dawn Knight said after saying hello, "It's time for us to change the way we travel."
Rei Shigure had "I'll know it just by looking at it" written all over his face. Kirara asked blankly, "We won't sail the ship?"
"Not yet."
"Then how do we get to the Blade Rain State?"
"We'll drive there."
·
Ten hours later, the Weatherlight was riding high on the road of the Sour Valley State. Yellow-green acidic gas permeates the ravine wilderness. The acid splashed by the wheels splashes on the stones and corrodes them into slag. The color of the sky is as muddy as vomit. The whole area looks like a drug addict's dream after heavy alcohol abuse.
Wawu was tied to the trunk. It opened its big mouth and inhaled the acid mist, turning itself into a wonderful green color.
Gongsun Ce sat in the passenger seat of the Weatherlight, his eyes confused.
"Huh?" he said.
"...Huh?" Qin Qianbai said from the back seat. She was sandwiched between Kirara and Rei Shigure, vividly demonstrating what it means to be a vulnerable group struggling to survive in the cracks.
"Due to the poor condition of both of us, we agreed after discussion to continue the journey by driving for the time being. I suggest that the two of us gain insights in nature and get inspiration in practice instead of spending time in meaningless fantasies. "
Gongsun Ce said dully: "Where should we sleep at night? Is it possible for us in this wilderness to set up tents and make beds on the floor?"
"Absolutely," Alandia said, "This is also part of traveling."
The girls in the back seat began to discuss excitedly what kind of tent to set up. Gongsun Ce stared blankly at the acid rain outside the car, feeling dizzy.
After the practice accident the night before yesterday, Alandia strictly prohibited his usual practice method. But if a magic user does not enter the temple to practice, it is equivalent to participating in a 100-meter race with his hands tied. No matter how inspired or talented he is, he will not be able to achieve anything. So Gongsun Ce had no choice but to wander and think hard, spinning in circles over and over again like a man who couldn't hold back a sentence. But the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was still in the weird state that night, and that he was just countless pieces of ashes.
Gongsun Ce had no other choice but to meditate silently. He thought that this would be nothing more than a joke from others, but when measures were taken, he suddenly realized how dangerous this situation was. He turned around and asked: "How are you, Miss?"
"I'm normal." Qin Qianbai said, "I'm thinking about martial arts..."
"Qin Qianbai also forgot to eat this morning." Qiluo said, "She almost forgot to sleep last night. I reminded her."
Gongsun Ce was as energetic as if he had eaten ten mint candies in a row: "Holy shit! Come on, hurry up, hurry up and look at the scenery to divert your attention. If you continue like this, you will become a fool!"
"Well……"
"I beg you, please don't, please don't!"
Arlandia pressed the accelerator to the bottom, and the Weatherlight took everyone along. This car made by the mysterious girl with colorful hair has amazing durability, and its wheels were not damaged by the acid at all. They found an acid lake in front of this road. The map showed that a detour was needed here, and Alandia drove directly towards the lake.
The Weatherlight flew across the water as if on flat ground.
"Is our car still equipped with mental weapons?"
"I've tried using it to climb cliffs before, and it worked very well."
The Dawn Riders seemed to be planning to leave this terrible state in a straight line. After more than an hour of bumpy rides, they left the border of the Sour Valley State and arrived at another area that didn't look much better. The new land was completely shrouded in gray-blue thick fog, and its humidity exceeded that of the Wooden Weapons State, making Gongsun Ce feel like water droplets were about to appear on his body. This foggy environment inevitably reminded him of the past. He frowned and asked, "Alandia, do we have to go this way?"
"The Charm Mist State is a must-stop for traveling overland to the Blade Rain State. Moreover, there is also an abnormal climate in this state, which is worthy of our investigation."
Gongsun Ce looked around and sighed deeply.
From Qiluo's explanation, they learned that the Charming Mist State is a sparsely populated small state. This place has no unique landscapes and no famous food. The local advantageous industries are unpleasant things like gas masks and protective clothing. The local thick fog not only interferes with vision, but also causes people to see some weird dreams and delusions.
"There are enough annoying things." Gongsun Ce said boredly, "The locals will probably be bored to death by this place."
"Most things have their value, and so does the fog." Airandia pointed forward, "It's starting."
The gray-blue mist began to slowly condense into shape, and Gongsun Ce frowned and observed. He saw a large stone arena, which was like a standard venue for duels between heroes in martial arts movies. A black-haired girl stood majestically in the middle of the arena with a long knife, and the audience below cheered like a tsunami.
"Who else?" The girl raised her knife proudly.
The man with long hair in a green shirt was half-kneeling on the edge of the ring, smiling freely.
"No more, Qin Qianbai. Now, you are the strongest warrior in the world."
Qin Ming stood up and led another person from the audience to the ring. The painter in black looked ashamed: "They all say that I am the strongest person in the world... But little girl, we all know that you are the well-deserved number one in the world."
"Really?" The girl looked shocked, "Am I the strongest in the world?"
"Is that necessary?" Qin Ming nodded.
"Really?" Yan Qi agreed.
Everyone was laughing loudly and blessing the birth of the strongest one. The strongest girl in the world spread her hands amidst the laughter of everyone, embracing everything in the world, everything... This sentence was secretly added by Gongsun Ce in his heart, and the illusion only lasted for a few seconds. The flying knife chopped the mist into pieces. Qin Qianbai stood in the back seat with a red face and said: "Absurd!"
"Miss, please sit down first, please. I'm scared because there's so much murder behind me."
Qin Qianbai sat down depressedly and said angrily: "It's just a foolish illusion. How can everyone see it at the same time? How unreasonable!"
Qiluo said weakly: "I haven't finished yet. The so-called charming fog is actually not an illusion, but a phenomenon manifested by the fog. Therefore, everyone can see it. After all, it is fog. .”
Shigurei held it in for a long time, and then laughed loudly: "Ah hahaha! You are very enterprising, little girl. If you work hard at this level, why don't you worry about not being number one in the world!"
Qin Qianbai covered his face angrily: "Ace, blow away the fog!"
"Okay, okay~"
Gongsun Ce used telekinesis to blow away the surrounding fog, and said comfortingly: "Think of something better. Miss, you are quite healthy. Wouldn't it be more embarrassing if my magic fog was projected?"
"I don't want to know what Ace is thinking about." Qin Qianbai puffed up her cheeks, and Qiluo couldn't help but poke her.
"I'm angry~" "I'm angry~"
Weatherlight walked in an awkward atmosphere for more than half an hour, until tall and thin shadows reappeared in the fog. When they got closer, they discovered that the shadow was actually an extremely thick silver pillar. A huge black shadow fell from the top of the pillar, forming a grape-like pattern on the ground.
The signboard beside the highway was crooked in the fog, and it took Gongsun Ce a little effort to read the words on it: Welcome to the small town of Novi.
"The environment in the Charming Mist State is quite difficult for people to live in. I see phantoms all the time and can't even complete the production work." Gongsun Ce scratched his chin, "So these things are actually... load-bearing columns that double as elevators?"
"As you think." The Dawn Knight drove the car to the base of the pillar. A wide sliding door opened automatically, and the "Garage Entrance" sign above shone brightly in the room.
"The city here is built on the magical mist."
·
The garage elevator ascends very quickly, and the dark and damp wind blows, which is very unfriendly to the passengers in the convertible. The top-floor garage is still an "underground" building, illuminated by blue lights. The guide, Dom Alat, is a dark-skinned man in his thirties, and he looks apologetic when speaking to them.
"I'm sorry, tourists. Many people say that the elevator should be improved, but the town government always says that it doesn't have the money to repair it."
Qiluo's hair had just been blown upright, like two pink onions. She didn't forget to comb her hair as she spoke: "It's okay! Are there any tourist attractions in this town?"
"Um..." Dongmu held it in for a few seconds and showed the same apologetic smile as before, "It seems not."
Dongmu told them that this was a remote town, far from the most remote place in Hezhong, but very close to the word ordinary. There are only two trains a week from here to the capital of the Charming Mist State, and they just missed today's one. When guiding them to the exit, the man did not forget to hand over an iron number plate to remind everyone that they could park for free in the underground garage.
"This car is so beautiful." The man praised before leaving, "Which brand is it?" Gongsun Ce told him that it was a modified car given by a friend.
Everyone left the garage with no expectations, and what greeted them was the dazzling sunshine and fresh air. The sky was as blue as if the Supreme God had knocked over the blue paint bucket while painting. The bungalows in the town were spread out neatly on both sides of the four-lane road, and the tiles glowed in the light. The exit of the garage is right at the edge of the town. When you turn around, you can see the land shrouded in blue mist. That thick layer of fog sinks far below the town. One can't help but imagine how many bizarre or interesting phantoms are buried in it. .
"It's really good." Gongsun Ce said, "I feel much better."
Qiluo helped them find a comfortable hotel, and Alandia began to assign tasks after completing the check-in procedures.
"The Charm Mist State is the sphere of influence of the Church and the Mithril Pillar. We can act separately. Because the current situation is not good..."
"I'm very good." Gongsun Ce protested.
"Gongsun Ce, you just started circling in the hall again." Qiluo sighed, "Alandia, you can be the captain's agent first. We don't have any objections."
"Then I, Miss Kirara, and Ce will stay in the town to find out the news, while Miss Shigure and Miss Qin will go to investigate the landforms of this state."
"Me and Rei Shigure?" Qin Qianbai was surprised.
"I know the two of you don't have a good personal relationship, but..."
"How could it be~" Shigure Rei smiled falsely and put his arm around the eldest lady's shoulder, "We have a good relationship, right?"
"Miss Shigure and I are as close as one family." Qin Qianbai said.
