Su Wan was about to speak.
From a distance, Sister Sun suddenly called out, "Xiaosu, hurry back after you’re done."
Su Wan pursed her lips and then responded.
She turned back and whispered to the woman, "Do you know, Gu Zilan?"
Then, Su Wan saw the woman’s eyes indeed widen in shock!
She knew she had vaguely guessed sothing.
But she still efficiently set down the tray with the food container she was holding and said softly, "I’ll find a chance to co back and see you all when I have more ti."
The woman didn’t rush to speak, but she stood there, watching Su Wan leave.
Her expression was both astonished and complex.
At this ti, the big lion walked up to the woman and rubbed against her hand.
In the woman’s eyes, there was a leap of unusual stars, "Ayuan, we might have a chance to leave this place now!"
anwhile, Su Wan had already returned to the kitchen with Sister Sun and started tidying up the pots and pans.
Su Wan casually said, "Sister Sun, why do I feel that the woman in the last room doesn’t seem to be a monster?"
Sister Sun: "She’s not a monster, but it’s said that the lion is her husband... Tell , what normal person would marry a lion! She may not be weird, but perhaps her mind is."
Su Wan: "..."
Could it be what she was thinking!
Because, Ajue’s brother, that is, Gu Zilan’s father, traveled the Universe with his wife and they had been missing for several years...
If they really were trapped here.
It would explain why they had been looking for them for so many years.
And never found them!
But it also proved that this place was indeed hard to leave!
Su Wan’s heart sank slightly.
Sister Sun saw that Su Wan worked efficiently and wasn’t afraid of any dirty or tiring work.
Even her stern face showed a hint of tenderness.
She said, "Our dormitory is a bit close to here, but don’t worry, there are patrol troops around, and each room has a special device at the door that prevents guests from escaping. But you also shouldn’t wander off; if you want to stroll around, you can take a walk nearby, but rember, don’t bump into the City Lord and his family."
Su Wan obediently took note.
She asked curiously, "Sister Sun, can those devices at the doors of each guest really keep an eye on them? Could they pose any danger to us?"
Sister Sun: "No, they won’t. The City Lord developed that device specifically to monitor those guests; we are all safe."
Su Wan: "Oh, then I can rest assured."
Sister Sun went back to her room to rest, and Su Wan also arrived at the dormitory. After waiting a while, she turned around and ca out again.
If the Vermilion Bird was still there, he could help analyze and figure out what that black device was.
When Su Wan herself got close to that thing, she also felt a bit uncomfortable.
But perhaps it was because her spiritual power was strong, or because she was a beastman by modification.
So she resisted the urge to sprout a fishtail.
She first went to Sheng An’s room.
A pair of black wings still enveloped its owner, leaning against the corner.
That corner was sowhat backlit.
And since the feathers were black,
It seed like the entire person had rged into the darkness.
Su Wan whispered softly, "Xiao’an!"
There was no response at all.
Su Wan glanced at the box overhead, enduring the intense discomfort as she approached it.
Originally, she planned to just take that thing and use her spatial superpower to move it far away.
But...
She looked at the thing that seed to be a tal box, then pried open the lock on top with a piece of wire.
Then, Su Wan saw that inside the box were so wires, and wrapped around the middle was a stone!
Looking at the stone, it shimred with a luster, and its material was unknown.
Facing it directly, Su Wan’s rmaid fin ears uncontrollably popped out!
Luckily she was wearing a chef’s outfit with a hat that covered her fin ears.
But she was struggling to control her rmaid tail!
Clenching her teeth, Su Wan reached out to touch the stone and then activated her spatial superpower!
Just as scales began to grow on Su Wan’s legs, the stone inside the iron box vanished into thin air!
Success!
Su Wan imdiately closed the iron box, worried about being discovered, and locked it up again.
After finishing all this, she hurriedly knocked on the door again, whispering, "Xiao’an! It’s Xiaowan!"
"What on earth happened to you?"
"Xiao’an, what happened to all of you?"
Just when Su Wan was about to give up, the black wings slowly unfolded.
The girl with cold, short hair, dressed in black combat uniforms, stepped out from the darkness.
Su Wan: "Xiao’an!"
Sheng An seed not to have spoken for a long ti, her throat was very dry, but her consciousness slowly beca clearer.
Looking at her old friend, her face was full of concern.
In a daze, it seed like she rembered how the two of them started as roommates at Empire University.
Together, they had experienced many things.
"Xiao... Wan..."
Su Wan nodded imdiately, she grasped the iron railing and said softly, "Xiao’an, were you locked in here right after you woke up?"
Sheng An covered her head, looking around blankly.
Fortunately, the thing that was absorbing her spiritual power and disturbing her nerves was gone.
Sheng An bit her tongue lightly, forcing herself to beco alert quickly.
"After being swallowed by the white mushroom, I woke up locked in here."
"I wanted to break out, but I had no strength in my body. My spiritual power was depleted, and I couldn’t control my beast transformation..."
Su Wan: "It must be the stone in the box by the door."
Su Wan recounted what she and Lin Yu and the others had been doing outside.
Su Wan: "It must be this stone affecting you. You recover first, and I’ll figure out how to move the other stones with my spatial superpower!"
Sheng An: "Does that thing affect you?"
Su Wan downplayed it, saying: "Not much, first take so rest!"
After saying this, she turned around and walked over to a few other people she recognized.
Sheng An gripped the railing. She saw that Su Wan’s rmaid fin ears had already peeked out from under the hat.
Xiaowan probably wasn’t as relaxed as she had said!
No, she had to recover her physical strength and spiritual power quickly.
She couldn’t hold Xiaowan back!
On her way, Su Wan also saw mbers of her own squad, Alex, Bai Qi, and other missing beastn from Squad Nine, but Pandora was nowhere to be seen.
She also spotted so mbers of Squad One.
However, the captain of Squad One, Kuhn, was not among them.
Like with the others, Su Wan told a few people to recover their abilities first and not to take any action for the ti being.
As for the strangers, Su Wan only removed the stones without saying anything to them.
For one thing, she did not recognize them.
And secondly... her spiritual power was already overtaxed from frequently using her spatial superpower. If she continued, she might not be able to resist the influence of the stones.
If she transford into a rmaid’s tail in front of Sister Sun,
That would be a disaster!
But even on the verge of exhaustion, Su Wan persisted and reached the last room’s door.
