Chapter 2127: Feel it with your heart

~7 min read 1,348 words

The flame burned on the firewood, with a "pop," a wisp of sparks exploded and finally extinguished in the air.

Su Xiao, who had just had a full meal, held a tablet computer. There was nothing to do for the moment, so he simply tackled the puzzle game.

He had been tackling this game from the First Tier to the Sixth Tier and had already cleared more than 75%. The further he went, the more anti-human the difficulty of this puzzle game became. Perhaps even the game's developer never thought anyone could clear it.

"This is the real late-night snack, so delicious."

Baha burped and gave a thumbs up to Xia's cooking.

"It's nothing really, I also make mistakes occasionally."

Xia, who was tidying up the tableware, smiled. She wasn't being humble. Once, when she was developing a recipe, she served a bowl of noodle soup that looked excellent but tasted so strange that she didn't know how to describe it. After eating that bowl of noodles, Su Xiao didn't say anything, but refused to pay the bill. It wasn't just that it tasted bad; it was that the taste was too strange.

"What should we do next? Judging from the temporary ability Reincarnation Paradise granted me, I am responsible for reconnaissance."

"You are still cannon fodder."

Baha added unconscionably.

"Don't say it so bluntly, I am for justice..." Xia stopped when she said this, because Reincarnation Paradise clearly had nothing to do with justice, so her tone changed, and she said: "I am 'sacrificing' for 'ideals,' um, that's it."

"Cannon fodder is cannon fodder, don't add drama to yourself."

"How can you be like this~"

Xia was a bit helpless, but she felt much more at ease in her heart. Her temporary ability was just like this. Baha's attitude of pointing it out directly was clearly more reassuring.

"The Foundation of Casting Magic is over there," Xia pointed in the direction of Aisenla City and continued: "To be precise, the 'Foundation of Casting Magic' is more like a huge bronze door, with many... on it."

Xia's words stopped suddenly. She closed her eyes tightly; this was using the "Eye of Spirit" ability.

"See what?"

With a "pop," Su Xiao snapped his fingers in front of Xia. Xia's eyes opened. Her pale face clearly showed she had seen something terrifying.

"Indescribable... terror and malice."

Xia's hands were shaking, and her eyes were a bit unfocused, clearly influenced by that huge bronze door.

After recovering for a few minutes, Xia calmed down. Her fear just now wasn't because she was timid, but because she was influenced by a malicious thought, similar to suffering a debuff state.

"The things carved on the bronze door are a bit hard to describe. They all look very strange. I'll draw them for you to see."

Xia took out paper and pen from the storage space. The pencil rotated between her slender fingers. Xia was very confident in drawing.

A few minutes later, Su Xiao looked at the A4 paper in his hand, his brows locked, and he looked at Xia again.

"A pile of potatoes carved on the bronze door?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Baha and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang leaned over, looked at the A4 paper, and then looked at each other. They confirmed the look in their eyes; there were indeed a dozen irregularly shaped, sprouted potatoes on the paper.

"Look carefully, you have to feel my painting with your heart. Those are not potatoes."

Soul painter Xia held a cup of iced tea and sipped it in small mouthfuls.

"..."

Su Xiao looked at Xia again and began to observe the painting on the A4 paper carefully. Don't say, after observing for a while, there was indeed a discovery.

This was a 'potato' that looked like a human figure. It was covered in sprouts, and on one sprout, a thinner toothpick was inserted. This thing seemed to be the Dominator, Sothoth.

With this clue, Su Xiao looked at a larger potato. This potato had more severe sprouts. If these sprouts were understood as tentacles, this was probably the Black Goat, Shub-Niggurath.

Just as Su Xiao raised his hand, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang placed two photos in his hand. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang would take photos of all strong enemies, and the Dominator and Black Goat were, of course, no exception.

"Is it the two of them?"

Su Xiao handed the photos to Xia. Xia observed for a while. Clearly, her soul painting had somewhat affected her judgment.

"That's right, it's them."

Getting Xia's confirmation, the big stone in Su Xiao's heart fell. Having the Dominator and Black Goat on the bronze door wasn't good news, nor was it bad news.

This meant that even if the bronze door was completely opened, things outside this world wouldn't appear in Aisenla City, such as creatures or existences related to the Void, Black Abyss, or Dark Prison.

As for what Sfink brought, it was unknown for the time being. Judging from the previous hints from Reincarnation Paradise, one must never enter Aisenla City within 10 hours, otherwise, there would be no life.

Tomorrow afternoon or evening, Red Clown, also known as Mr. J, would arrive in this world. The other party had an ability that could easily destroy the bronze door.

The situation developing to this extent only explained one thing: Sfink had a large amount of Space-Time Power in his hands, or held many 【Sealing Boxes】.

【Sealing Boxes】 were supplies belonging to the Holy Light Paradise. At this moment, Su Xiao had five in his storage space. As for returning them, it was basically impossible.

Just as Su Xiao was preparing to take a nap and set off for Aisenla tomorrow, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was lying on the ground, raised his head.

"Woof."

"Location?"

Baha, squatting on Amu's shoulder, spoke.

"Woof!"

Getting Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's exact answer, Baha spread its wings and flew into the high sky. Ten seconds later, it dived down and landed on Su Xiao's shoulder.

"West side, female, about 25–27 years old, weight 52.7 kg, the smell of blood is very heavy, visually estimated to be seriously injured and dying, being carried by a summoned creature, expected to arrive near here in about 1 minute. Should I let it pass, or..."

Baha made a throat-slitting gesture with its wings.

"Let it pass."

The sheathed Zhan Long Shan appeared in Su Xiao's hand. He made a gesture, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang merged into the environment, Baha flew into the high sky, and Amu's big hand inserted into the mud, his whole body turned into magma, hiding himself.

"Um, um? Um?!"

Xia went from surprise to astonishment, and then to confusion, just in an instant. She looked at Su Xiao and pointed at herself.

"You don't need to, Xiang Bubu is behind you at the 6 o'clock direction."

Su Xiao tossed two Soul Crystal fragments into his mouth, looking very much like he was eating sugar beans.

"Heard from Sfink that your name is Kukulin."

A weak voice came from the darkness. A black panther with brown-yellow pupils walked out. It wasn't the one speaking, but the woman on its back.

With a "thump," the woman fell beside the campfire. Under the reflection of the firelight, the left side of her cheek was already withered, just like dry tree bark.

"The two daggers you sent are not bad."

Su Xiao spoke in a calm tone, not drawing his sword directly.

"Sure enough, you and Sfink are old schemers of the same level. I am Meihuan, I assassinated you twice, but you already guessed it."

Meihuan sat up with some difficulty from the ground, crawled to the campfire, grabbed a glowing red charcoal, and pressed it toward her withered cheek.

Hiss~

An unpleasant burnt smell drifted away. Meihuan's expression relaxed a bit, but she was even weaker.

"I escaped from... Aisenla, Sfink was driven crazy by you, I know everything about the bronze door."

After saying this, Meihuan fell to the ground again, unconscious. ===== CHAPTER 2128 =====
