Lilier was in trouble.

And it's a big problem.

"Sister Liliet......! What can I do now!?" Val nervously grabbed Liliet's arm, and tried to burrow into Liliet's arms, and Lilier hugged Val very helplessly, trying to comfort Val while trying to stabilize his body.

But the speed and trend of their whereabouts have not improved in any way.

"Uh-!, can it only counteract the effect of acceleration, and the trend of the fall still can't change ......?" Liliel had done her best, but she and Val were still uncontrolled in the process of falling, at least not affected by the acceleration and getting faster and faster - they had been in this predicament for a long time, if there was still a gravitational acceleration...... That's hard to imagine.

Liliel could not have imagined that she and Val had not encountered an enemy, but had found themselves in such a situation. At that time, when the two of them were tracking the clues along the way, the ground under their feet suddenly cracked, and they didn't even allow time and opportunity to react, and the strange attraction from below grabbed the two and dragged them down.

I thought it would be a hollow underground, but it had been falling for a few minutes before it hit the ground, and Lilia suspected that it was a "bottomless pit" at all.

"So, what the hell is going on?"

Most humans who can't fly are subconsciously afraid of "height", and Vaal is no exception. And now, she's been on her way for a few minutes. She was not very bold, and she was about to cry.

- If it weren't for the fact that worries had affected Liliet's thinking and playing.

"Don't be nervous. Feeling the force of Rival tugging at her in her arms, Lilia quickly patted her on the back. "I don't think you need to worry about breaking into a meatloaf - the world you lived in before was originally made by Sister Aisha, between the illusory and the real, and in essence, there would be no geological structure like the present world. ”

Liliet, after secretly estimating in her heart, confirmed this guess.

"If it's just by physical means. I'm afraid that no matter how hard you dig down, you will never be able to chisel through the earth, that 'thickness'. It is quite possible to approach infinity, but, to put it another way, the so-called 'earth' here functions as a kind of 'dividing line' - it connects the world at rest. It is separated from the void of the outside world. ”

"That'...... Then we're now!"

Val was taken aback by Liliet's statement.

The Outer Void...... That's not legend. Is it a forbidden area of life divided into various worlds? In that unclear place, even the "concept" will be blurred, and ordinary beings like human beings will die completely when they enter it, right?

"You now have the Dark Demon Sutra from the Demon God, don't worry, even if you enter and exit the Void, you can be fine...... I don't think it's a fabled void, though. ”

In the void. There will be no such expression that clearly drags the two of them downward.

Lilia couldn't help but think back to the moment when she and Val were "hit".

There was no warning, not even an earthquake. Lilia could easily feel the source and shock waves coming from deep underground, and just now she didn't even notice the strangeness of the ground under Ao's feet, and the earth suddenly cracked open, engulfing the two of them.

Aisha's world seems to be designed to prevent her own changes from spreading to the outside world, and it can be said that it is like a tightly locked secret room. And in this situation, no matter how you think about it, Aisha herself would not want to see it.

That is, it is based on some "external force......

"Vaal, try it, can you sense that child in your family - you should be able to recognize her breath when you get along day and night on weekdays, right?"

"Yes, it's okay, it's just that I'm not a puppy, and my nose isn't that sensitive...... Sister Liliye, are you saying that Xiaoli and the bad guys who kidnapped her are now in the same place as us?"

"That's how it should be...... Listening to what you've said, it's hard not to think of words like 'key sacrifice' and 'necessary key' when those guys kidnapped such a little girl. What we are experiencing is a sudden change that can upset the balance of that still world...... I don't think it's going to have anything to do with the girl you're looking for. ”

"So, what should I do?"

"That's fine. Lilia couldn't lift her hand, and pressed her forehead to Val's little head. Suddenly, Val felt a warm current of heat flow down their foreheads and into her brain.

For a moment, Val even noticed that the colors in his field of vision had become completely different.

Liliet didn't intend to do this, but who made her not know Xiao Li, and couldn't distinguish the breath of that little girl at all? And instilling "black power" into Val's body, even if it has been diluted and relatively mild, in the end, there is a certain amount of damage. Eval's body would not be injured all at once, but it would not be beneficial after all...... But now I can't help it.

Anyway, let's hope Val will find the trace of that girl.

"What a strange feeling...... It's so comfortable, it's like basking in the sun on the green grass. ”

Val subconsciously said to himself, which surprised Lilia - the black power was instilled into her body, and she didn't feel a little uncomfortable, but felt ...... If she didn't dilute it, directly using black power to strengthen the brains of ordinary people was no different from holding a soldering iron into the braincase! Even if it was diluted, it was definitely nothing that could be described as "comfortable", right?

Liliel almost unconsciously increased the purity of the Black Power to test it...... Fortunately, she also knew which was more important at the moment, and did not toss poor little Val.

"Can you find any trace of that child?"

"I'll try......" Val's eyes widened, trying to look down at the black hole. Seeing Val's hard work. Lilia still didn't spit out the words she hadn't said before—and if she couldn't find them, she could use excuses like "I might have thought wrong" for the time being. But in fact, Liliet is almost 100% sure. The child, called "Xiaoli", will be in front of them. If not, that's only a possibility......

The girl they cared about was dead, a waste that had been used up to the surplus value.

- I hope that doesn't happen......

Even though they had never met, Lilia could still feel in the words and actions of her companions how endearing the girl who had been taken away was—and the rest was better said. But if you can arouse the concern of people like Xia, if you die like this, then the world is too cruel.

"Sister Liliet! Found it!" Val's ecstatic voice came. "I've found Xiaoli's traces! Sure enough, as you said, she's ...... She's right in front of us!"

"Are you sure?"

"Well, it must be Xiaoli's taste! When I'm at home, I often help Xiaoli take a bath. Her taste...... I won't admit it!"

"That's good. Liliet was also relieved to hear this. Of the five people, she was the only one who had nothing to do with the girl, and if something really happened, she didn't know how to explain it to Lin. ...... In it, Liliye didn't exclude Xia either, subconsciously, did she already regard her as a companion and friend?

Of course, there is one more thing that is very important now......

"Vaal. Do you find any signs of other people around that child?"

"Nope. No!" Val himself felt very unscientific, Xiao Li's breath drifted alone in front of them, and there was not even a trace of a person around.

Hearing Val say this, Liliet's heart suddenly dawned.

"Luckily, it seems that this 'emergency' is not only for us, but also for those guys. ”

"Eh, Sister Liliye, you mean...... The guys who kidnapped Xiaoli were also swept up by the sudden collapse of the land, ......just like us?

As soon as he heard that Xiaoli seemed to be out of danger, the joy on Val's little face spread irrepressibly. After all, Val is also a child, and such a frank behavior made Lilier feel a lot lighter in her psychological burden, and patted her on the back dotingly.

"Okay, okay, let's find that kid first, and it's never too late for you to be happy -- can you point out the exact direction? If the angle is slightly worse, the result will be a lot off? In this environment, I can't easily and freely control the direction. ”

"No problem!

......

Val seems to be confused, but if she is really a mediocre person, how could Aisha take her as a student?

In fact, Val is even better than Chika in terms of talent and potential. I'm afraid that a long time ago, Chika, who was regarded as a "genius", had already discovered this, right? Val was able to grow up according to her indifferent heart, and a large part of it was inseparable from Kika's deliberate protection all along-if Kika hadn't taken the initiative to share Val's task, with that kind of living environment, I'm afraid that Val, who could hold on, would no longer be the original Val, right?

So, Chika always complains that Val has strange feelings for her, but if she really wants to say it, no matter how you look at it, she was emotionally moved earlier, right? Without such pure feelings as "liking", would she take the initiative to protect such a "drag oil bottle" when she was still young?

You know, children are prone to "jealousy", especially when they are under pressure and facing peers who are more talented than themselves.

Chika is a tsundere, but Val is not, she knows very well which person is the best for her, so she also responds to the other party with the greatest enthusiasm - but unfortunately one is natural, the other is tsundere, and both parties are clumsy.

"It's a lot smoother than expected, and it's so easy to find the exact location. Lilier couldn't help but glance at Val, who had a somewhat silly expression, even if it was her. I don't dare to say that I can accurately confirm the direction in such an environment.

Val confirmed it herself, and Liliah took her there. The two of them are not partners who have worked together for many years. Liliet would inevitably stray as she moved forward, but Val was able to correct Liliet's mistakes as she went......

――Could it be that this child still has the talent of a "prophet"?

Lilia had also learned about this aspect before, and she knew that those seemingly mysterious soothsayers did have a unique talent that ordinary people did not have—they could accurately grasp some "ethereal" feelings. When it comes to problems that rely on "intuition" and "luck", the prophet has an advantage over all others.

And Val's cousin can't help but make Lilier think of this aspect.

And. Compared to those predictors with worrying accuracy, Vaal's table is really even more terrifying.

The area they are in now can be regarded as a "slit" between the worlds. Over here. The "concept" in various common senses can produce a certain degree of ambiguity, which greatly affects a person's judgment. Vaal can make almost incorrect calculations and judgments, and can even correct changes over time in time...... This kind of talent, put in the group of prophets, is extremely rare, right?

"Eh, hey, hey, because it's an important matter related to Xiaoli, I must also be more serious~"

Val lowered her head in embarrassment, easily shy. I can't even be proud of it.

- Is it really just "serious"? Lilier thinks that she can say such things casually. In essence, in fact, Val subconsciously also has supernormal self-confidence, right?

Because for her, it's just a trouble that can be overcome by "paying more attention". Don't talk about "challenges", I'm afraid it's not even "difficult", right?

"Hmm!"

Lilier's figure couldn't help but shake, and even Val couldn't help but let out a muffled snort. The two suddenly encountered an accident, and their heads accidentally collided together. Caught off guard, it hurts unexpectedly.

"What, what's wrong?"

Val asked Lilia with a shudder, covering his forehead. Liliel also looked around in disbelief (although there was not much light, it was still dark and dark), and her body was even more unconsciously tossed.

"Whereabouts...... The whereabouts have stopped?"

As soon as Lilier spoke, Val also discovered this situation - they were originally in the process of falling at a steady speed, and they had increased their speed in order to catch up with Xiao Li, but now, the mysterious power that controlled their bodies to fall down mysteriously disappeared, and now the two of them did not repeat the previous movement, but hovered in the air.

"Then, what about Xiaoli!" Val quickly turned to look, and saw that the lonely little figure had also stopped falling like them, and was quietly suspended to the side, Val finally breathed a sigh of relief. It doesn't seem to be the anomaly of the two of them, it's the same for all the people who fall into it.

Val glanced at Xiaoli, and hurriedly stroked her little hand, and "swam" towards Xiaoli in a breaststroke position, not to mention, she was really in this empty mid-air, like a little frog, stumbling over.

"Hey, be careful......"

Suddenly, Val left her side, and Lilia also took a small jump, but soon she could only smile helplessly - Val's eagerness to save Xiaoli was not incomprehensible.

"No problem!" Val swam to Xiaoli's side and hugged Xiaoli, who was unconscious but still breathing, "Woo, I've finally found you, Xiaoli - it's good that nothing happened!"

Are Val really sure that Xiaoli can wait for him and others to rescue her? Seriously, it's not.

For the umpteenth time, Val was afraid if when he arrived on his own, all he saw was Xiaoli's cold, pale body that no longer moved, or even a complete corpse...... Now seeing that not a single qiē has turned into the worst and most terrible development, Val's mood is not to mention how happy.

"Well, it's okay to be fine...... Liliet's smile just now appeared on her face, and suddenly, the warm liquid splashed on her cheeks, causing Liliet's smile to freeze completely halfway.

"Huh......?"

Liliah subconsciously touched her cheek...... The viscous, moist, warm touch gave her a bad premonition in her heart - sure enough, blood.

Liliel hurriedly turned her gaze in Val's direction, and what caught her eye was the sight of Vaal's limbs hanging limply and blood splattering everywhere.

On Vaal's back, to the left of where her heart was, a small blood-stained hand was piercing Vaal's chest and heart, poking out from behind her.

"Little ...... Xiaoli ......?"

Val looked at the little girl who suddenly struck a fatal blow to himself in disbelief - it was obviously the taste of Xiaoli, it was obviously Xiaoli herself, how could it ......

Immediately, her eyes went dark, and her consciousness was interrupted.

"I'm so lucky, I didn't expect to have a spare body here. ”

"Xiaoli" waved his arm violently, and casually threw Val, who did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the moment the arm was withdrawn from Val's chest, a large puddle of blood was also brought out.

"Hahahaha-you want to destroy me, but I didn't expect fate to be so magical, and your wishful thinking is completely empty!"

Although the timbre is green, the words that come out of the mouth of "Xiaoli" do not have any characteristics that a little girl should have.

Liliel hurriedly hugged Val's petite body into her arms, but she noticed that Val's body temperature had begun to drop significantly!?

Without thinking about anything, Liliel took out the "Scepter of Earth" and stabbed it "roughly" into the hideous hole in Vaal's chest without saying a word.

"Huh?"

For a moment, as if sensing something that annoyed her, "Xiaoli" turned her gaze coldly to Liliye.

"That's ...... Hmm, is it another kind of Holy Spirit power? Hehehe, what a coincidence, I didn't expect that after I regained my body, I would be able to kill a Holy Spirit sacrifice first?"

“......”

Lilia was silent, didn't say anything, and silently pulled down the fox mask, completely covering her face. (To be continued......)
