Chapter 331

This was a colossal palace.

The palace was incomparably resplendent, utterly out of place against the dilapidated look of the mine cave.

And inside, the lamps blazed in brilliant glory.

It looked more like a royal palace.

And at this moment!

The young girl's voice drifted over slowly.

It was a very pleasant voice.

Looking closer!

The girl was about seventeen or eighteen years old.

She wore a Lolita-style Western dress.

And held a strange black umbrella.

The girl looked extremely pretty.

Just like a princess.

And her entire body looked exactly like a human's.

Except for her pair of sapphire-like eyes.

They made her look less like a human, and more like some noble princess.

At this moment!

The girl was half-reclining on a luxurious golden chaise longue.

At this moment!

She revealed a smile and opened her eyes.

It seemed!

That she had been slumbering on this chair all along.

She laughed.

"Hehe, looks like another friend has come to keep me company!"

"It's far too lonely and boring here!"

"Hehe!"

The Lolita girl laughed.

Her brows curved into two crescent moons.

On her sweet face were also two adorable, shallow little dimples.

"Buji Buji, let's go, we'll go out and play with them!"

"Who knows, maybe later we can even find a companion for you among them!"

The Lolita girl spoke to a stuffed doll.

It was a two-meter-tall stuffed doll.

Its entire body was wrapped in bandages.

It looked just like a giant, clumsy bear.

Only a pair of eyes peeked out from its head.

However!

Those eyes were not human eyes.

Instead, they were a pair of deep, hollow sockets.

It seemed!

That there was no living thing inside them.

But!

That bandage-wrapped stuffed doll—

After hearing the Lolita girl's words,

Stood up from its seated position. "Buji Buji!" it let out a strange sound.

It patted the dust off its body.

A cloud of dust drifted up from its body.

Clearly!

It seemed to have been crouching there for a very long time.

So much so that a great deal of dust had already gathered on its body. "Hehe, how cute!" "I love you the most, Buji Buji!"

"(Don't worry) Even if I find new playmates, I'll still love you the most!" the Lolita girl said to the strange bandage-wrapped creature. "Buji Buji!"

And that creature could only answer her with this kind of sound.

One could only hear, in its voice, a trace of fear toward the Lolita girl. "Hahahaha, let's go!" the Lolita girl laughed brightly.

The next moment!

She had already taken the bandage-wrapped clumsy bear and headed toward the outside of the palace.

Her laughter kept echoing back and forth in this empty place.

Outside!

Around the palace.

Bandage-wrapped creatures lay scattered about in disarray, quite a number of them.

Some looked like dogs, some looked like elk.

Anyway, it's just a bunch of bandaged cloth puppets.

But!

Right now, all of them are in tatters.

Clearly they're already useless.

"Hmm?"

"Is this the entrance to the Evil Spirit Labyrinth mine cave?"

"It's really not very eye-catching!"

Looking at the plain, ordinary entrance before him.

Chen Xuan muttered to himself. There didn't seem to be any powerful creatures around either.

Only spider silk everywhere.

And bones scattered across the ground, telling everyone that this place.

Was not as safe as it appeared on the surface.

"Hmm?"

"Seems like someone's already gone in?"

He dismounted from the Holy Light Dragon.

Then had it shrink down and perch on his shoulder.

Chen Xuan saw that in front of the mine cave entrance.

There were many footprints.

The footprints still looked fresh.

Clearly, not long ago.

Someone had already gone inside.

And it looked like a large group of people.

"Their purpose couldn't be the same as mine, could it?"

"Probably not — they shouldn't know what's inside!"

Thinking this, Chen Xuan!

Still quickened his pace and walked in.
