Zhou Jinru laughed and said, "So I'm waiting for you to tell me the truth. You guys are hiding it one by one and won't tell the truth. You think I'm a fool. In fact, many conflicts are due to information asymmetry." As a result, especially Kelsey, she knew so much but didn’t tell me anything.”
"I will tell Dr. Kelsey these words."
Zhou Jinru didn't care at all: "It doesn't matter, I have long wanted to have a showdown with her."
After walking forward for some distance, Zhou Jinru stopped, squatted down, and stared at the ground carefully, lost in thought.
"I remember the streets in Burlington were paved with stone pavement. The Londinium City Department spent a lot of money and took several years to pave a road. How come it is now a brick road?"
no respond.
"lighthouse."
Zhou Jinru did not hesitate and immediately released the lighthouse. A strong light burst out, like a sharp blade, instantly piercing the fog and his vision became clear.
He was indeed still standing on Burlington Street. The buildings on both sides were Londinium Modern, but the road beneath him was not.
"The doctor has already experienced a similar situation. It's a pity that I wasn't here last time, otherwise I could have helped the doctor solve a lot of troubles."
Zhou Jinru murmured to himself: "The boundary between dreams and reality has become blurred..."
Ming Yuexin stretched out her hand and lightly drew, and two models appeared in front of Zhou Jinru's eyes: "If the boundaries only become blurred, the dream will never become reality. Some major events must happen to break down the barrier between the dream and reality. , just like the last time, a small-scale piercing of reality was the incident of Ifrit falling into a violent balrog, and Kesha Demos used this to enter reality from the dream, at the cost of her father disappearing."
"Ifrit? I saw an adult version of Ifrit in Londinium, but unfortunately I never found it again."
After a few seconds, Zhou Jinru unexpectedly discovered that Ming Yuexin did not answer in time. He quickly turned his head and saw characters flashing between the villain's hands.
"What's wrong?"
Ming Yuexin said in disbelief: "It's impossible. What happened to the adult version of Ifrit that the doctor saw? I can't find any information about her. She seemed to be someone who appeared out of nowhere. How could this happen? Such a thing?!"
"This...I don't know."
Zhou Jinru couldn't answer Ming Yuexin's question. Until now, he only had a partial understanding of the concept of the dream world, let alone answer professional questions.
…
…
"glare?"
Ifrit looked forward. The bright light caused her to fall into unconsciousness for three seconds. When she woke up, her expression was very complicated. It had been a long time since she had seen the light that could dispel the fog, which also explained a fact. , the man returned to the ground, still walking in front of them.
Obviously the information she had obtained before was that he was in Little Londinium, but now he appeared on the ground, which could only mean that he parachuted down from a high altitude.
Emergencies came one after another, but this could not make Ifrit retreat. Since she was standing here, she had no intention of retreating, and she had no way out.
"We move on."
Provence said worriedly: "The fog is getting thicker and thicker."
Ifrit said calmly: "I know."
She turned around and distributed a thimble to each companion, demonstrating: "Wear it on your left index finger. There is a barb inside the thimble. If you poke it into the skin, it will hurt a little. It doesn't matter. Pain is better than death." .”
W took off her gloves and put on the thimble. She couldn't feel the pain of the barbs digging into her skin. The curiosity in her eyes became more and more intense: "Little girl, I'm starting to wonder, what on earth did you go through to become what you are?" This is it now.”
Ifrit helped Mei put on the thimble, reminded her not to forget to prick herself a few more times, and said without looking back: "I lost the person I love most."
W was noncommittal: “Everyone has this experience.”
"It happened five times and I lost everything."
Ines interrupted their conversation: "Pay attention, there seems to be something in the fog."
Thick fog surged, but nothing appeared.
Ifrit assumed a combat posture, stretched out her hand and patted the worn-out Rhine protective clothing. Five nodes on her limbs and chest lit up, and a layer of shield rippled across her body.
"Protect me, Miu Miu."
The warrior raised her hands, and fire suddenly appeared in her hands. A wall of fire pushed forward, and a twisted figure fell, struggling constantly, trying to extinguish the flames on her body.
The twisted monster turned around and ran away, but a tower shield flew from behind faster and hit it. The next second, a pair of feet fell from the sky and stepped on it. Dark green juice splashed everywhere, but passed through the warrior. The body disappeared.
The battle only lasted a very short time, so that several other people present were unable to react in time. Ifrit watched the monster under the boots completely disappear, and the nodes lit by the protective suit slowly extinguished, facing four pairs of With an inquiring gaze, she slowly picked up the missing tower shield.
"These monsters are best dealt with before they enter reality. They are fragile and only have physical lethality. Once they enter reality, they will continue to evolve new abilities along with their parasitic hosts."
Mei raised her right hand tremblingly: "It was transparent just now."
"Yes, there is indeed a transparent one. Its ability is similar to that of Safra. It cannot be ruled out that it has come into contact with this race."
It was obvious that Ifrit had grown into an experienced warrior. Provence could not imagine the environment in which she grew up, and whether Rhode Island still existed in that environment.
"Sisters, let's keep walking, I will solve all problems, trust me."
Ifrit was carrying a shield and her steps were firm, as if nothing could stop her.
There are strange colors in W's eyes. A person who has lost everything will become extremely hard, because she has nothing that can be taken away except herself. But this is not enough to become a strong warrior. She must do it even if Only by being able to give up easily can you become the warrior you are now.
"Ifrit, do we no longer exist in your world?"
Ifrit, who was walking in front, didn't respond.
Ines glanced sideways at W: "Don't ask."
"I'm just curious."
"Just follow along."
W leaned closer and said, "Then how were you persuaded by her?"
Ines took a deep breath, recalling the day they met, she is still frightened.
She lowered her voice very low: "I saw the same light in her as Your Highness."
W was stunned and didn't react until he was more than ten meters behind the team.
The same light as His Highness?
How could it be, how could it be possible, this...
But Ines doesn’t look like she’s lying!
When W looked at Ifrit again, his eyes became extremely complicated.
