Daughter of the Sea Chapter 175 In Search of the Stars
"So, the stars disappeared with that girl?"
Gu Lichuan squatted where the stars disappeared and looked at the light particles on the ground, and asked in disbelief.
"Yes," Mu Yi said while glaring at Bai Gu, "It's all because Bai Gu refused to stop that woman, so Xingchen can't see anyone alive or dead now!"
"Okay, don't say it. Seeing that Bai Gu was about to refute again, Ying Lan hurriedly stopped the senseless quarrel and walked to Gu Lichuan's side: "Lechuan, what do you think?"
Gu Lichuan looked at those light particles through his silver pupils. Without the breath of the stars, and without anything energetically connected to those light particles around, the stars and the girl disappeared out of thin air under such circumstances, so there was only one answer.
"I think Xingchen must have been teleported away with that girl. β
"Where's the teleportation?" Brandy interjected.
Gu Lichuan smiled embarrassedly: "How do I know this." β
Hearing this, Ying Lan frowned: "Even if you know that you have teleported away, it is useless not to know the destination." Otherwise, you can ask the Black Rider to help. β
"Ying Lan, you are so powerful, can't you use the hand of God to open a space to teleport or something, do you have to go to the black horse?" Bai Gu suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ying Lan.
"I never thought that the Hand of God could do such a thing," Ying Lan looked down at Bai Gu who was squatting on the side, "It's you, don't you have an evil god half-body! Why don't you want to think of a way?"
"Hmph," Bai Gu smirked and stood up, "You finally thought of me." β
So, the other four set their eyes on him in unison.
Who knows, Bai Gu just shrugged his shoulders: "It's a pity, there is no destination, even if I have that ability, it will be in vain." β
Brandy rolled her eyes at him, "I've just arrived, don't make such a bad impression on me." β
"Everyone," just when everyone was in trouble for a while, Mu Yi spoke, "I have a solution. β
So, the eyes of the four of them turned to Mu Yi again.
"Do you believe in souls?" said Mu Yi, raising his right hand, and a flame-like thing that shone with a faint green light rose from his hand.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded.
"I once learned the art of extracting souls for processing," Mu Yi pinched his hand, and the soul mass in his hand condensed into the shape of a bullet, "Although people are not here, the residue of the soul left by the soul can echo from afar." β
"Oh!" Hearing his words, Gu Lichuan stood up, "If I rely on the connection of the soul, maybe I can 'see' the location of the stars with my eyes." β
Mu Yi nodded: "Use Ying Lan and my abilities to strengthen the perception of the soul, maybe Lethe can find the traces of the stars." β
"As long as there is a trace of him, the location is reflected to me in the abstract," Bai Gu drew his knife, "I can split the door of a space and send us to find him." β
......
The streets are unusually wide, and it is possible that this city, which is not part of human civilization, once had a huge form of transportation. However, the wider and smoother the street, the more strange it becomes.
Xingchen walked down the street, and the heat induction triggered all the time still hasn't found any living people, not even living creatures. The siren, on the other hand, followed him quietly, but it was not difficult to see from the bouncing figure that she was in a good mood.
"You just now," Xingchen walked slowly, thinking that there was no way to leave for the time being, and he wanted to measure the size of the city leisurely, "why did you say let me save you?
"Huh?" Leng Buding was asked by Xingchen, and the siren looked at him with golden eyes, "Because I'm scared, after all, it's my first time going to the ground, and it's the first time I've sent people away with that 'whoosh'." β
"You've lived here since you were a child?" the star paused, a little skeptical of the siren's "first time." Moreover, the Siren said that she had been living here since she woke up, which made Xingchen feel that she had experienced something unusual.
"I don't know," the siren looked up at the sky above him and jumped past the stars, "and when I opened my eyes, I was already like thisβI still had an instinctive familiarity with the city. As for my childhood memories and childhood experiences, even my relatives don't remember them at all. β
Xingchen looked at the girl in front of him, and the panic dissipated along with the gloom in the room, and he was able to fully observe the sirenβthe face that was not indistinguishable from the one in the dream, the long hair fluttering with her like a golden flag. The slender figure is very commensurate with the white shirt with an off-the-shoulder halterneck, but it is no longer suitable for the temperature on the ground at this time.
"My brother told me that the ground was dangerous, so I wasn't allowed to go out...... I'm not allowed to wander around the city," seeing that Xingchen didn't speak, the siren opened the conversation, "but I'm bored, so I wander around the city, and I trigger the machine in a daze." β
"Maybe it's an advanced device that can teleport at regular intervals," Xingchen recalled the glow emitted from the siren's body when he grabbed him, "Ordinary teleportation devices can only complete teleportation between two points, but the teleportation device here not only realizes a little teleportation, but also has the function of timing. β
Although it was similar to a compliment, the siren perfect did not see the slightest expression of surprise or approval in the star's face.
"Xingchen, it's great that I met you the first time I went to the earthly world. β
"Why?"
"Because I do see the stars," the siren said as she looked at the stars, her smile showing no politeness or exaggeration, only sincerity, "so I know what your name is." If you call it a desert, a snowy mountain, or something, I don't know what you're describing. β
"Since you don't know what it is, where did you hear these words?"
"In the library," the siren said, pointing to a building in the distance, "I know all the information about the ground. β
As she spoke, she looked up at the sky again: "Alas, the artificial sun here will never set. It would be nice if there was also a starry night sky. β
Xingchen looked at her and said indifferently.
"The stars in the night sky are beautiful because they are so far away from us," he said, looking down at his hand, "and when you get closer, you will find that the blazing light they emit is just a disaster for us." β
"I don't care," the siren walked up to the star and grabbed his hand, "then I'll have to get closer to know what kind of temperature and what kind of light it is." β
Her hands were a little cold, the opposite of the stars.
Xingchen nodded: "What you said also makes sense. β
"If I leave here one day, you can take me in with the stars," the siren looked at the stars with a grin, "You're my first friend." β
Xingchen nodded, showing a faint smile: "You will meet more friends." β
As soon as the words fell, Xingchen's eyes suddenly became sharp. Immediately afterward, the temperature around him began to soar, and the sirens were surprised by the scorching heat.
"Huh?" Before the sirens could react, Xingchen had already grabbed her to his side. Then, aiming at the far corner of the street, the star shot three flame rays.
Accompanied by the scorching sound of breaking through the air, a terrible and strange scream came from behind the street corner.
"From just now I wondered how it was possible for a huge city to not even have a single person. β
As he spoke, Xingchen stared coldly in the direction where the strange scream came from.
"I don't want to doubt you, but I'm curious......"
The sirens looked up and saw that the stars were asking themselves. The gaze emanating from his burning golden eyes changed from his previous calm to complete indifference and murderous intent.
As he spoke, a huge figure crawled over from the corner. Immediately, rancid and fishy smells came to the face, along with the smell of burning.
"Have you been living with these monsters?"
The huge figure was fully revealed in the white lightβa huge creature covered in seaweed, covered in scaly bodies, with long strands of green slime hanging from its body, making the sound of water drawing.
Is it a corpse?" Xingchen asked inwardly, staring at the huge figure.
There is no temperature, or it is close to the temperature around you, so the heat sensing is not so sensitive. Maybe it's because it's hidden in a house that it doesn't get exposed because of the huge fishy smell, or maybe it's because you're too involved in talking to the sirens and let your guard down.
Thinking like this, Xingchen put his arm around the siren and ignited a flame with the other, and the hot wind around him quickly blew away the stench emitted by the monster.
"You said your brother would kill me if he saw it," Xingchen raised his arms, the flames in his hands burning a little harder, "Have you ever seen your brother kill people? β
The siren nodded.
"Well," the flames illuminated the star's blonde hair and his eyes, "then I won't have to cover your eyes." β
......
In the gloomy room, blades stretched out of the void with purple light. The blade slashed downward, cutting a purple mark in the space. Immediately after, the scratches opened open, and Gu Lichuan's figure poked in.
After observing the surrounding environment, Gu Lichuan stepped through the hole in the space and turned around and said, "Come in, it's safe." β
So Yinglan, Brandy, and Mu Yi stepped over one after another, and finally the triumphant Bai Gu walked over with square steps while inserting the knife back into the scabbard.
"How is it," Bai Gutoe looked at Mu Yi proudly, "My knife, okay!" As he put the knife into the sheath, the space that had been cut off closed again, and the room returned to the cold and dim it was just now.
"Okay, good," Mu Yi held the gun and praised Bai Gu perfunctorily, "It's just that I didn't expect that our black market is the right one." Who would have thought that going on vacation would encounter such a thing?"
Gu Lichuan vigilantly observed his surroundings, and he found footprints left by the open door and the dusty ground.
