The monster had left.
A certain corner.
Chris glanced at the immobilized cow.
"So when the five minutes were up, the cow was fighting with that monster, and you just slipped through?"
She asked.
"Yeah," Wu Xiaode said matter-of-factly, "We needed soone to stir things up, and it did a great job."
Chris sighed in relief, looking towards the jails that had quieted down again.
—As soon as the monster left, she returned.
Wu Xiaode explained the situation all over again.
Hearing the new rule that "all flag thieves and their races could only steal the flag once," Chris lowered her head, showing a disappointed expression.
"It’s all my fault." She said dejectedly.
"It’s okay," Wu Xiaode quickly comforted her, "There’s still . Although the fairy race can’t steal the flag anymore, I can."
Chris shook her head, sighing, "Little Wu, no silly rule can stop us fairies."
"Then why are you upset?" Wu Xiaode wondered.
"Because his rule still has so effect. I must comply with it to so extent, so I can’t wear my beloved nightwear anymore."
Chris waved her wand and tapped herself.
The nightwear vanished, replaced by a set of mini armor.
Chris coughed lightly and said:
"Now I’m not ’Thief’ Chris, but ’Warrior’ Chris, let’s go steal it again!"
Wu Xiaode was stunned.
Fairies...
Were they really that strong?
If so, fairies could completely go and defeat the Demon Lords themselves.
Seeming to realize what Wu Xiaode was thinking, Chris said apologetically:
"Sorry, we’re actually not good at fighting; we’re just good at playing gas."
She rubbed her hands excitedly:
"Alright, let’s go steal that flag now."
"Wait a second." Wu Xiaode stopped her.
"What’s up?"
"Which flag are you planning to steal?"
"That one."
Chris pointed towards a jail in mid-air.
The Black Flag was disguised as a white one, standing in the center of the jail.
Wu Xiaode glanced at that flag and said:
"Don’t be fooled, that flag might be fake; everything I saw before might have been intentionally done by the Demon Lords."
"Ah? Should we steal that one on the ceiling then?" Chris asked.
"The one above might also be fake." Wu Xiaode said.
"Then what do we do?" Chris was confused.
Wu Xiaode pondered for a few monts and then said, "Your skill at squeezing through bars is too amazing, can you include in it?"
Chris imdiately sensed Wu Xiaode’s magic.
"Sure, you can borrow it to play."
She let out a "giggle," seemingly finding the situation increasingly amusing.
Lines of ice crystal characters imdiately appeared on the Book of the Dead:
"You have activated the Causality Law magic: If you can’t beat them, join them."
"Fairy Chris allows you to borrow her fairy race talent: Cheating."
"Description:"
"Fairies are the favored children of the Law, guarding the Holy Spring where the most incredible laws erge. Any Law must turn a blind eye to their actions and not unduly trouble them."
"You have acquired this talent."
Wu Xiaode felt sowhat reassured.
"Little Wu, which flag do we need to steal to actually get the real Ti Corpse?" Chris asked blankly.
This kind of thinking was too hard for a fairy—
Even though she was a three-ti champion in the fairy community’s Whac-A-Mole ga, she still found it quite headache-inducing.
Wu Xiaode whispered:
"Why do we have to choose between the two flags?"
"Huh?" Chris didn’t understand.
Wu Xiaode pointed at himself and then at her, whispering, "Regardless of true or false, we’ll steal them both!"
Chris looked at his gestures and suddenly understood.
Yes!
She would steal one.
With Little Wu’s fairy race talent, he would also steal one.
There was no need to do any multiple-choice.
— We want them all!
"Wow, Little Wu, you really are suited for theft. Next ti we go to the dragon’s lair, we must take you along," Chris cheered.
Her eyes suddenly glead, and she asked:
"Brother Wu, which flag do you think is the real one?"
"I think it’s the one on the ceiling," Wu Xiaode said.
"Why?" Chris asked.
"Because if the thief had already left, we wouldn’t see a series of actions perford by the monsters, so the ceiling would still be safe, a worthy place for the real item."
Wu Xiaode continued:
"If there is still an invisible thief here, then the thief would have definitely witnessed the monsters’ performance, and would definitely go for the black flag in the prison, rather than caring about the fake on the ceiling—"
"In this case, the ceiling is still suitable for storing the real item."
"Moreover, the act was so fake, clearly there was no one there, yet they deliberately demonstrated so issues,"
"Considering these three points, I think the real item is hidden in the ceiling."
"Okay," Chris agreed happily, "then let’s see if your guess is right."
Wu Xiaode spoke quickly:
"The ceiling’s defenses are more stringent, you’re experienced, you go steal it; I’ll steal the black flag from the prison in front—let’s act separately."
"Okay!"
One human and one fairy set off at the sa ti.
Wu Xiaode quietly landed in front of the prison.
Chris also flew up to the ceiling, twirled her body, and stepped on the chanism.
They glanced at each other.
"Action!"
Chris kicked the wall and shouted coyly:
"We’ve been here so long and there’s not even a chair to rest on, open the door, let go in and find a chair to sit on!"
Wu Xiaode also approached the black bars, saying:
"What’s so special about a tattered flag, I’m just here to take a photo, and I’ll be gone right away."
Whoosh—
He hadn’t even seen clearly what had happened, but he found himself already through the black bars.
Not only that.
Wu Xiaode even felt that the black bars were also in a state of confusion.
What was he waiting for?
He stepped forward and grabbed the flag in his hand.
The Holy Treasure Ring flashed.
The flag disappeared.
Wu Xiaode looked up to the ceiling and saw that Chris had also succeeded.
Hurry—
The monster could be back any minute!
The two, understanding each other’s intentions, squeezed through the fence together and darted toward the direction of the bronze door.
Wu Xiaode’s feet kicked off from a bronze hand that appeared out of nowhere, ready to speed up, when suddenly a strange voice ca to his ears:
"Take with you."
Wu Xiaode shook all over.
Who?
He had clearly cast "Evernight City" and was enveloped in the monster’s black fog; how could soone speak right next to his ear?
"Who?"
He shouted.
"Look to the left." The voice rang out again.
Wu Xiaode looked to the left.
At his position on the left, there was a floating prison.
Inside the prison stood a serene statue of a goddess.
—it was the statue he had seen before!
The majestic and solemn goddess had her eyes closed, her expression calm and peaceful, as if she was oblivious to everything around her.
However, that graceful and soothing female voice spoke once more:
"Everything is interconnected. If you plant the cause to rescue , I will grant you the effect of being rescued, as I have said myself."
"Take away, young human man."
This statent was profound as if related to so Causality Law.
Wu Xiaode hesitated for a mont.
Chris had already reached the bronze door, looked back, and called, "Co on, Little Wu."
"Wait for !"
With gritted teeth, Wu Xiaode’s figure plumted in front of the goddess statue and shouted loudly:
"Don’t mind , I dropped my key in there; I’ll just find it and leave!"
He moved directly through the black light fence.
The black light fence once again expressed confusion—
This was actually the epito of confusion manifested by all the runes and magic that constituted the entire black light fence.
Facing a fairy, the Laws really kept retreating.
Wu Xiaode pressed his hand on the statue, took it in one motion, and flashed out quickly.
"It’s too late!"
Chris cried out in dismay.
In the Void, the silhouette of a humanoid was erging.
Wu Xiaode raised his hand.
Two bronze humanoid beings appeared in unison.
Ulysses!
Skadi!
"Make them go forward," he transmitted ntally.
Chris kicked the bronze door fiercely.
Boom—
The bronze door began to open a crack.
The two Demon Gods shot through the crack like bolts of lightning and disappeared into the depths of the Void.
"Trying to escape?"
The newly erged monster sneered.
It waved its hand, and the bronze door instantly swung wide open.
The next instant.
The parasite of the Ti Corpse imdiately chased after them.
Seizing the mont—
Wu Xiaode stepped forward, grabbed Chris, placed her on his shoulder, and rushed out of the bronze door with the Ti Corpse.
The next instant.
Wu Xiaode suddenly stopped.
Outside the bronze door.
Monsters with imnse and terrifying presences floated everywhere.
Each monster exuded power fluctuations that were no less than that of the Feeding Demon Master,
This was—
This was all the Disaster Demons gathered here!
For the first ti, Chris started panicking and tremblingly said:
"It’s bad, we can’t use Transmission Magic. Their combined strength is too overpowering; the mont we try to run, we’ll be discovered imdiately."
Wu Xiaode looked back at the bronze door.
—we’re already surrounded here, should we go back inside the door?
That’s not an option either.
That would an being trapped.
What should we do?
... The only option was to rely on "Evernight City" and attempt to weave through the gaps between the Disaster Demons.
And quickly!
The parasite of the Ti Corpse had already taken down Ulysses and was chasing after Skadi in the opposite direction!
Wu Xiaode gritted his teeth and was about to act.
Suddenly.
That female voice rang in his ear again:
"Hold the flag on the ceiling in your hand, and I will make sure you get out."
Without hesitation, Wu Xiaode shouted to Chris, "Give that flag you took, quickly!"
Chris handed him the flag.
Wu Xiaode raised the flag high—
In an instant.
An inexplicable fluctuation emanated from the flag.
This was a power Wu Xiaode had never felt before, imbued with a sense of imnse antiquity and desolation.
Ti!
He had guessed correctly.
The parasite of the Ti Corpse had placed the real flag on the ceiling!
The Book of the Dead opened, revealing two lines of ice crystal small script:
"You have used the Master of Ti’s artifact: Flag of No Beginning."
"Ti now reverted to one hour ago."
In the dark Void, all the Disaster Demons disappeared.
Chris, taken aback, exclaid:
"Ti! Our ti is different from theirs now, we are in a different dinsion of ti!"
That familiar female voice echoed in Wu Xiaode’s ear again:
"Hurry, the change in ti cannot be maintained for long."
What was he waiting for?
Without any hesitation, Wu Xiaode pulled out a World Stone.
This was a Transmission Stone leading to a private world of the Shangmo family.
In such a critical situation, he couldn’t care too much; he had to teleport away and think about the rest later.
Hum—
The World Stone emitted a slight vibration.
In an instant.
Wu Xiaode disappeared from in front of the bronze door.
