Yet, before the reverberating noise from outside subsided, a chilling gaze, akin to something from the dark depths of the universe, was intently fixed on the duo. Immediately following, a frigid voice abruptly rang out as if emanating from the ninth circle of hell. "Tell me, where is this place? Who are you two, and why have you summoned me here?" The duo's sensation was akin to a chill running down their spine, reaching the last vertebra. It was unclear whether this woman was dead or alive. But, from her arrival until now, her only utterances had been questions of this nature to them. The only anomaly seemed to be her roar that slayed the ape. However, at this moment, neither Ethan nor Moon could adequately explain why this woman had appeared here or who had summoned her. Nevertheless, remembering the fate of the ape, both harbored a deep unease. Who knew if, after failing to get answers from them, this woman might let out a roar and end their lives too? Yet, before either could
While pondering these thoughts, the unicorn suddenly shuffled closer, hurriedly tugging at the hem of his trousers, and squeaked a few times. Then, it emitted a hum-like sound from its throat. "Hee hee! Hee hee!" Seeing the unicorn's actions, Ethan quickly grasped its intent. "Do you mean I need to get out of here immediately?" Whether he hallucinated, Ethan could see the unicorn nodding as if affirming his question. However, after taking only a few steps, Ethan's movements abruptly halted, causing the unicorn to again urge him on with a flurry of squeaks. "Hee hee! Hee hee!" He knew that the unicorn wanted him to follow it outside. But he remembered from his dream that Moon was still in the cave. Moreover, the strange appearance of the stone coffin from beneath the water with the altar was puzzling, and he had no idea why it had surfaced. If Ethan were to leave now, he could undoubtedly ensure his safety. But Moon stepped forward to hinder her when the woman from the coffin wa
From Ethan's perspective, ever since he acquired the system, his life has been in constant worry and unease after it disappeared. Now, hearing its familiar sound, his heart could feel significantly more at ease even while standing in a chaotic time and space full of dangers."Beep beep, the spatial anomaly is approaching the host. The host is advised to stabilize their mental state quickly, and the system is calculating... beep beep..."After a long while, the AI Super System's sound rang out again. But this time, after it emitted only a short sound, Ethan's mind abruptly plunged into eternal darkness. He had no idea what had happened, but when he woke up, he sat in a car, heading towards the outskirts of Wenger Nicholas city.The scenery was strikingly familiar, and the city wasn't in its present state. It was as if he had witnessed when he first arrived at Wenger Nicholas four years ago. At that time, he had just left the Alexander family, and his father had passed away not long bef
“Bip, Bip!”The system warning in Ethan's head keeps incessantly echoing. But at that moment, Ethan could no longer hear it. He only felt his entire body stretched and segmented into various images, falling into countless timelines, rendering his mentality exceedingly chaotic."Who are you? Why are you trying to stop me?"A man with auburn hair, holding in his arms a four-year-old child in a coma, gazed with heightened vigilance toward the group of black-clad, masked individuals standing opposite him.If Ethan had been present, he would have recognized that the auburn-haired man was from the Lunar Clan. And the child in his arms was his daughter, who had disappeared not long ago.However, at this time, the people confronting the auburn-haired man seemed to pay no mind to his words. Their eyes had been fixed on the child in his arms since their arrival."Leader, the child is safe, just temporarily unconscious!"A deep voice issued from one of the masked figures facing him. Because they
Nonetheless, a man known by the moniker Bannet voiced out."Enough of your squabbles. Everyone disperses and investigates the trail. They've just left recently, and if we accelerate, we can catch up. Especially her, Vera will complete this mission!"Upon Bannet's command, everyone exhaled a sigh of relief. Only Vera seemed exasperated and immediately retorted."What? Why me? I won't go!"The mere mention of that woman's name gave Vera an exceedingly dreadful feeling and struck somefear in her companions. However, Bannet was the leader of this operation. Hence, hearing his order, none dared to contradict it. Instead, they took a stand against the insubordinate Vera."What's this, Vera? You're defying the team leader?""Exactly, it's an order, not a game. Who permitted you to rebel? Or do you want the team leader to report this to the higher-ups?"A series of contentious voices rang out, stirring resentment within Vera."You... you're all bullying me!"This time, Vera didn't only use a
While the young woman's figure was still at quite a distance, her voice echoed throughout the forest. At the same time, the group attacking the white tiger momentarily hesitated.Seizing this opportunity, the white tiger managed to escape the encirclement. At this sudden turn of events, the vividly dressed man cried out in frustration."Fools, how could you let it escape? Quickly, chase it down for me!"Not wanting to let the white tiger reach the young woman's location, the vibrantly dressed man grew even more furious, ordering his subordinates to pursue it fiercely. However, having just escaped the encirclement, the white tiger seemed to have regained its spirit, and its aura grew considerably stronger.At the same time, the young woman had also reached its side, forcing the opposing group to halt their pursuit, maintaining a fair distance."Stephen, what are you trying to do? Why do you persistently try to kill my mount?"The young woman's gaze rested on the bizarrely dressed man,
It was as if, waiting for this moment, Stephen quickly issued orders to his subordinates beside him."Quick, seize the moment, and kill that white tiger. This potion may temporarily seal off her meridians. However, the Spirit clan has a unique constitution. Even the clan leader cannot guarantee that there won't be any unexpected circumstances. Hence, you must act swiftly and make no mistakes!""Yes, sir!"His underlings quickly responded. Their forms darted forward again, each holding a weapon made from animal bones in their hands. These weapons were far more terrifying for the white tiger than bows, arrows, and sharp knives.The knives made from beast bones were specially crafted from a natural enemy of the tiger. Moreover, Stephen's men smeared each serrated blade with a specific vegetal concoction potent enough to numb the nerves of the white tiger.Hence, the battle had scarcely lasted a few minutes when the tiger's body succumbed to paralysis, collapsing onto the ground. Subseque
As expected, upon hearing his question, Lucia's face turned unsightly. However, her reaction was moderate. She only appeared slightly angered, then calmly replied."Yes, I will comply with any condition, no matter what it is. But, you must ensure the white tiger's safety."Upon hearing the positive response from Lucia, an odd thought surfaced in Ethan's heart momentarily. However, his gaze soon shifted back to Lucia's side. Because at this moment, Stephen, who had initially departed with his group, unexpectedly returned, sitting beside her."My original mission was solely to capture that white tiger. However, prior orders insisted that I deliver you to them secretly. This potion is incredibly potent. Despite the passage of much time, you're still incapable of movement. This task has become a divine opportunity for me, Stephen. Ha, ha, ha!"As he laughed, Stephen was the picture of satisfaction. His once serious countenance now distorted into an eerie smirk. It was evident that the min
