Going to the center of the restricted zone? To investigate the situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That chilly sentence instantly sent a shiver down Yuan Qiu's spine, vaguely realizing she might have said something stupid again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt a bit awkward, but in that moment, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed through her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clearly relied heavily on the old woman, so she sincerely apologized first: \"Alright, I was being unrealistic...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she tentatively asked: \"But isn't the goal of our group exploring the Abyss Restricted Zone precisely the center of the restricted zone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So actually, I don't need to follow you sisters through this difficult and winding process. I can just wait until you reach the center of the restricted zone, then use [Free Movement] to come to your side.

Wherever I go, it's like entering an unguarded territory!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard back in the Doomsday Apartment that the Light faction from this batch's Novice Apartment has been quite arrogant!

I'll just go wherever I feel like looking around, how about that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That final \"how about that\" already carried a coquettish tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This tactic used to work very well in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this time...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman's gaze toward her was somewhat cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Yuan Qiu began to feel strange and puzzled in her heart,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the old woman suddenly sighed softly and asked in a low voice: \"Wander around as you please? You wouldn't... still be thinking about that Zhang Minghan boy, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Yuan Qiu was momentarily speechless at the question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she had indeed been planning to use [Free Movement] to check on Zhang Minghan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because her sensing of Zhang Minghan was very strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That faint, flickering sensation was as if he sometimes existed and sometimes didn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she had just replicated the [Nomadic Merchant]'s ability and wasn't very familiar with this SSS-level Ultimate Ability yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So overall, it felt like Zhang Minghan had \"poor signal,\" causing her sensing to \"lag.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was because of this peculiarity that Yuan Qiu had that tiny thought of going to check on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such an incredible movement ability, she would just take a look, just one look and then leave. It shouldn't be a problem... right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's what she thought, but when she looked at the old woman, she still felt somewhat apprehensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating for a moment, she proactively compromised: \"Forget it, if you don't agree, sister, I'll just follow our main group...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before she could finish speaking, she heard the old woman sigh softly again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sigh seemed to carry the indulgence of an elder toward their most spoiled junior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, when the old woman spoke again, her words were full of indulgence:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to leave the restricted zone and wander around to familiarize yourself with your new permission identity, that's fine...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you must never have that absurd idea that 'I'm already invincible' or 'I can go anywhere like entering unguarded territory'!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The entire Doomsday Apartment may seem to be only on its eighth day now, but no one knows exactly how long it has actually been developing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What you don't know will always be more than what you do know!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There will always be people beyond people, skies beyond skies, far beyond your imagination!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think all the beings you can sense with [Free Movement] represent every living creature in the world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think SSS-level Ultimate Abilities are the strongest existence in the world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! You must never think this way!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman spoke with earnest persuasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Yuan Qiu could be willful at times, she was actually quite sensible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She listened seriously to these words and was about to say she wouldn't \"wander around\" anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then she heard the old woman sigh again, her tone unmistakably filled with pity and doting:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, you're right about one thing - we don't know how many risks we'll face on our way to the center of the restricted zone...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you really don't need to experience these risks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister can let you move freely, but you must obediently agree to some conditions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing such concerned and gentle words, Yuan Qiu nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the strange and eerie feeling that had arisen not long ago was completely forgotten, wiped clean from her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman flipped her hand and first took out a strange blood-colored gauze garment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was very thin, with fine, dense weaving that looked almost like...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the blood-colored patterns on those Heavenly Net Mutants had been extracted?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye was startled by his own thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Qiu also looked at the terrifying blood-colored gauze garment with hidden surprise in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she still obediently listened to the old woman and cooperatively put on the gauze garment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman said softly: \"You know your own situation well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This gauze garment will protect your physical body, and also ensure that if you really encounter any troublesome opponents where even [Free Movement] and [Forbidden Body] can't protect you... this gauze garment can save your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you've always had sharp senses, so remember, remember - once you sense danger, don't hesitate for even a moment, immediately return to sister's side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with another flip of her hand, the old woman took out an extremely thin red thread, similar to the threads on the gauze garment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tied one end of the red thread around Yuan Qiu's neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other end, she tied around her own finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she hooked her finger, and the red thread connecting the two of them disappeared without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Qiu touched her neck but didn't feel anything unusual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman continued: \"As we continue exploring deeper into the Abyss Restricted Zone, we will gradually lose contact with the outside world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By then, I won't be able to contact you, and any messages won't be able to be transmitted to the outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But this red thread can still maintain our connection.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When we need you in the restricted zone, I will pull the red thread in my hand. And you, if you feel a pulling, choking sensation at your neck, you must immediately come to my side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Qiu nodded, touching her neck and then the blood-colored gauze garment she was wearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at that moment, a flash of blood light suddenly appeared, and the blood-colored gauze garment disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, blood-colored patterns similar to those on mutants like Xu Gou and Tao Sheng suddenly appeared on her body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Qiu was startled inwardly, but since she didn't feel anything particularly unusual, she didn't ask further and just nodded obediently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew her sister was only worried about her, so she made a solemn and sincere promise:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know that both Dad and you are risking exploration of the restricted zone for my sake. I will definitely obey obediently. I won't go to any dangerous places or places without familiar people!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once I've figured out this privileged identity enough, I'll come back on my own without you needing to pull the red thread!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman nodded contentedly and patted her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was fortunate that Yuan Qiu was short, otherwise with the little old woman's hunched figure, this head-patting gesture would have been quite difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She also gave Yuan Qiu a spatial ring containing some life-saving items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she truly permitted Yuan Qiu to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other mutated Defenders didn't have any particular thoughts about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had heard some rumors before and had vague speculations—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason why Young Lady Yuan Qiu was also coming to explore the Abyss Restricted Zone seemed to be because there was some problem with her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And exploring the Abyss Restricted Zone was to find a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people were envious—having a good father who dotes on his daughter is truly fortunate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Jiang Ye, witnessing that scene made him even more certain—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There must be some secret related to the restricted zone hidden within Yuan Qiu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this secret was the real reason for her being \"doted on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, what concerned him more was the old woman saying that continuing deeper into the restricted zone would cut off contact with the outside world...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, losing contact again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Court of Disorder lost contact, the Reincarnation Mirror Palace lost contact, and now the Abyss Restricted Zone also loses contact...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a cheat player, he felt somewhat numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this also provided a good opportunity to urge Xiao Bai to gather information again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai also observed the old woman's expression at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silence, she flashed over and occupied the position that originally belonged to Yuan Qiu, cautiously asking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Granny just said that continuing deeper into the restricted zone will cut off contact with the outside world? Does the Left Alliance know about this? Do I need to notify them in advance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai herself didn't really dare to inquire information from such a powerful figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she could only use Lin Ling as her banner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the old woman's cold gaze, Xiao Bai quickly added with some anxiety:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I haven't been able to contact the Left Alliance for quite a while now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could she have entered the restricted zone before us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman's gaze toward her remained cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, she finally withdrew her gaze and said in the direction of the chubby guy:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have any idea? How much longer until we officially set foot in the restricted zone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the seemingly casual tone, Jiang Ye vaguely sensed a trace of tension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that when it came to officially setting foot in the restricted zone, the old woman was finally not completely confident but instead had concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised him even more was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chubby guy, who usually maintained his honest and simple persona, was now uncharacteristically serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flipped his hand and lifted the buzzing Array Disk again, his gaze looking forward into the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pondering for a moment, he finally said: \"Soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman's eyes grew even colder and more serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped walking and slowly turned around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their exploration formation had the old woman leading Yuan Qiu, Xu Gou, Tao Sheng, Yu Mo, Peng Gu and other juniors as the vanguard at the very front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mutated Defenders followed closely behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the chubby guy and the Giant Shadow Phantom carrying Jiang Ye's mutated clone brought up the rear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the old woman at the very front turned to face the group of mutated Defenders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at Xiao Bai, then looked toward the chubby guy at the back, finally shaking her head and taking it upon herself to address the mutated Defenders:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all heard what that Chubby Senior just said—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soon, we will truly set foot in the Abyss Restricted Zone!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This serious and solemn voice made all the Defenders present shudder mentally, putting them on high alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know that because of the mutation from the peripheral radiation soil earlier, you've developed resentment toward the entire Defenders' Alliance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I want to tell you—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Half-finished mutants like you will receive a tremendous opportunity the moment you set foot in the restricted zone!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, along with this tremendous opportunity, a deadly risk will also simultaneously descend!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you seize this opportunity, you will become like them...\" When the old woman said \"them,\" she pointed to Xu Gou and the other mutants covered in blood patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Becoming official mutants!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, these few good-for-nothings are just the weakest among mutants.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Their strength hasn't undergone a qualitative leap.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you are different!
