Ciri followed Qiao Xiu into the consciousness space of the World Tree.

A round table and chair floated in the empty space, and on the chair sat a blue-haired girl eating something like a cake.

The blue-haired girl saw Qiao Xiu, who suddenly appeared in the space, and the things that had been swallowed in her mouth were choked, and she kept patting her chest before she reluctantly swallowed the things in her throat.

"Hmm......" Ciri stared at the blue-haired girl for a long time, "those two cats at home have finally become human?" ”

Ciri's statement annoyed a black cat and a white cat living in the mental space.,The black cat appeared in Ciri's footsteps.,The white cat was lying directly on Ciri's head.。。

"Could it be that the bird changed?"

Ciri hugged the cat off his head, and the white bird landed on Qiao Xiu's shoulder in mid-air at this time.

"She's not the World Tree... It's not human, it's a little complicated, you just think of it as an NPC in the game. Qiao Xiu introduced the Ascendant girl to Ciri, "She's from the underground ruins of Nolan, a... A race that calls itself a sublimator. ”

"You... You've captured another of my kindred. ”

During this time, Bai Yue has realized that he has become Qiao Xiu's captive, and he can only redeem himself by working for Qiao Xiu, but Bai Yue has not given up hope and has been trying to find a way to escape from here and temporarily return to that body in the real world.

The method has not yet been found, but Qiao Xiu does not know that a new sublimator has been abducted from there.

But...

"No, you're not!"

Bai Yue could feel the breath of their clan in Ciri, but it was mixed with the primitive soul of a human being.

"My name is Ciri."

Ciri didn't wait for Qiao Xiu to introduce her, she already understood when she saw the blue inscription on Bai Yue's skin that she might be the 'professional' that Qiao Xiu said.

"I have the same inscription on my body and soul as yours." Ciri stretched out her hand to the white moon, and the blue inscription on her left hand only needed a thought to emerge in the consciousness space, "What the hell are these inscriptions for?" ”

Knowing that the inscriptions came from her mother, Ciri had no intention of erasing them, and now she just wanted to figure out what the inscriptions represented.

"The foundation on which we can walk in the real world, the imprint of the union of spirit and soul."

Bai Yue was not as wary as Qiao Xiu when facing Ciri, maybe she felt a familiar aura in Ciri.

She glanced at Qiao Xiu quietly, and after Qiao Xiu's permission, she cautiously floated in front of Ciri, stretched out her hand and grabbed Ciri's wrist.

"Many years ago, our people gave up our bodies and lived in the world of consciousness and spirit, which the Mistress told us was a form of existence that was above flesh and blood... An existence made up of mere inscriptions. After Bai Yue touched Ciri, her eyes were full of curiosity when she looked at Ciri.

"But you are special, your soul and body are perfectly compatible, but these inscriptions allow you to influence the world of consciousness and spirit, and more specifically, only our master mother and master father can tell you."

"Uh... Is this the strongest law of half-breeds? ”

Qiao Xiu listened to Bai Yue's introduction, how did he feel that Ciri inherited the two characteristics of a human being and a sublimator at the same time.

From the information Qiao Xiu had gathered before, the Sublimator had to pay a price if he wanted to walk in the real world.

"Thank you for the explanation, and how to meet your mother-in-law and... Master Father? ”

Ciri is eager to find out about her mother's past, and it is likely that she will find the cause of her death.

"No, my people will come and find you." Bai Yue's voice sounded happy, "It's been a long time since I've seen a new clan, and someone will take you back soon to receive the gift." ”

"What do you mean by a gift?" Qiao Xiu asked.

"Abandon this troublesome body, and then live forever in the world of consciousness."

When Bai Yue said this, her voice was full of pride and complacency, the pride of being a sublimator.

But she was completely unaware of the change in Johew and Ciri's expressions.

"When will your people come to me?" Ciri could barely keep a smile on her face.

"Soon, before I came to the mission, I heard from the mistress that I had found a new lost clansman, but I didn't expect it to be you... I think it won't be long before someone will come and bring you back to receive the gift. ”

Bai Yue said with a little excitement that she was very welcoming to the arrival of the new people, and seemed to be looking forward to the ritual called the gift.

It's just that her excited voice stopped abruptly in the next second, turning into a panicked shout.

Because when Bai Yue came back to her senses, a staff with a spear-like tip had already pressed against Bai Yue's chin, and her neck was held against a long sword.

Bai Yue felt the cold touch on her neck, and looked at Qiao Xiu and Xili in horror, and now the expressions of the two were unexpectedly the same, that is, it was gloomy and terrifying.

What's wrong with it? Bai Yue almost cried under this huge oppressive force.

"Tell me when your people came to find it, and by what means or means! Now immediately! Qiao Xiu's voice was very calm, but it was full of killing intent that if you don't make it clear, I will directly kill you.

"I... I do not know... There is no pattern to the actions of my people, only... Only the Mother and the Mother know. ”

Bai Yue's voice was completely cried.

"Where are the mother and father?"

This time it was Ciri's turn to ask... Bai Yue felt the crystal on the tip of the staff on her throat move closer to her again.

"This..."

"Don't worry, I just want to talk to them." Qiao Xiu whispered.

It's like a posture to talk about! Hakutsuki felt that if she said no... Maybe that's the end of her life.

But at this moment, when Bai Yue was about to collapse, the dissatisfaction with Qiao Xiu in his heart began to surge.

"Why don't you humans understand that this body is a burden... Obviously..."

"I have a lot of rebuttals to you, but they don't make any sense..."Qiao Xiu realized that Bai Yue would say these words, purely because of different values, "But there is one thing you still need to remember." ”

"What... What the? ”

Bai Yue saw a warm smile on Qiao Xiu's face, but there was a feeling of oozing.

"If your kindred dares to touch my fiancée... The lifespan of your ascendants will end on the same day. Qiao Xiu withdrew the long sword in his hand and put his other hand on Ciri's arm to calm her down, "So what you say next will determine whether your race can continue or not, I'm serious." ”
