Veronia is missing? Feng Yuan was taken aback. He wasn’t worried about Veronia encountering any danger—what a joke. Quietly and invisibly, who could possibly make a move except Veronia herself? Not to ntion that Veronia was sitting on his shoulder at the ti.
As for whether she accidentally got thrown off the mine cart, Feng Yuan was sure that was impossible. Although there were no safety devices, Veronia’s power was evident; she wouldn’t be thrown off by a re unstable mine cart.
So, where did Veronia run off to?
With his mind full of questions, Feng Yuan looked towards Agunas and the others. Perhaps they might know where Veronia had gone since they could inquire about Veronia through the Divine Beasts intelligence network.
Feng Yuan never considered that Veronia wouldn’t respond in such situations. Mainly, there wasn’t any need unless she was doing sothing special. Otherwise, Feng Yuan couldn’t think of a reason for Veronia not to answer.
Could there be such unexpected situations in this place?
"What is it?"
Noticing Feng Yuan’s odd behavior, Agunas and the others floated over in front of him. Agunas asked.
At this mont, the tourists behind were ready to enter. Qi Chen and the others had already walked to the exit. Seeing Feng Yuan still standing there, they shouted at him. Feng Yuan waved at Qi Chen and the others and said to Agunas,
"Veronia is missing. I suspect she is inside... there."
Pointing his finger towards the depths of the mine tunnel, Feng Yuan’s face didn’t look good. Although he didn’t know what Veronia was doing inside, ignoring it didn’t seem right. Moreover, if the mine cart happened to pass by Veronia while running, it could beco a big issue.
Veronia wasn’t afraid of the mine cart; no matter how fast it went, it couldn’t hit Veronia. Her defensive ultimate move could automatically counterattack. However, there were tourists on the mine cart. If it were forcibly stopped, who knows if those tourists would be injured?
"Excuse , sir, please leave this way. Thank you for your cooperation."
Seeing Feng Yuan standing still, a staff mber walked over to warn him. After hesitating for a mont, Feng Yuan explained Veronia’s situation in the mine tunnel to the staff mber. The staff was stunned, not expecting such an event to occur.
"I’m not worried about her safety. Theoretically, wouldn’t the mine cart fail to injure a Divine Beast even if it crashed straight into it, right? Even without deliberate protection from the Divine Beast."
"Yes, what you said is... wait! Divine Beast?!"
The staff mber felt a headache coming. He hadn’t expected a guest to secretly bring more Spirit Beasts onto the ride and for the Spirit Beast to even be inside the attraction.
Before long, though, he realized sothing was off—Divine Beast?! Was he hearing things?!
"Yeah, if Veronia weren’t a Divine Beast, I would have stopped her the mont she snuck on."
Shrugging, Feng Yuan said innocently. Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan, too lazy to expose him. What a joke; if another Beastmaster said this, it might have believed it, but Feng Yuan?
That guy could have stopped Veronia, but he simply chose not to.
In Feng Yuan’s view, there was no issue with Veronia sneaking onto the ride. The only problem was disappearing all of a sudden like now.
"A Divine Beast, huh... troubleso."
Glancing at Feng Yuan, the staff tried to determine whether he was telling the truth. But no matter how he looked, he couldn’t tell if it was true or false. After thinking it over, he decided to treat it as real.
It’s not that he was lazy or shirking responsibility; under normal circumstances, no one would joke about a Divine Beast. Moreover, the cartoon crocodile priest-like Spirit Beast at Feng Yuan’s side could even speak human language, adding a bit of credibility to Feng Yuan’s words.
After all, Spirit Beasts capable of human speech are never simple.
"Agunas, could you help call Veronia to co out quickly and not disturb others?"
Sighing, Feng Yuan had to ask Agunas to assist. As for going in to find her? Feng Yuan found it troubleso. After all, he couldn’t ride the mine cart to search, and going in directly ant the entire mine tunnel wasn’t small. The mine cart was fast enough to cover the whole mine tunnel in a short ti; searching by foot would take over ten minutes.
Glancing at the constant complaints of tourists, Agunas also understood the situation was unfavorable. He flicked his tail and imdiately contacted Veronia through the Divine Beasts intelligence network.
The answer he received was hardly a pleasant one.
"I’m afraid this ride needs to be temporarily closed for maintenance. Don’t worry; I’ll have the Alliance notify your managent to issue the order."
Agunas looked at the staff with mixed emotions. Feng Yuan was stunned, not expecting sothing to go wrong while simply taking a ride on a mine cart. This was...
The staff didn’t make an imdiate decision, as it wasn’t within his power to decide. Closing the ride, especially when no significant safety issues like equipnt failure had occurred, wasn’t within his jurisdiction.
If Feng Yuan knew what the staff was thinking, he would surely laugh at him. After all, Veronia’s presence inside the ride was the largest safety concern.
Not to ntion Veronia could dismantle the entire attraction if needed. As for potential trouble?
Assuming the reason is justified, Feng Yuan couldn’t think how humans could punish Veronia, being a Divine Beast, since ordinary worldly rules couldn’t constrain them.
Agunas was clearly aware of the severity of the issue, so it wasn’t long before the park managent notified them of the temporary closure of the attraction. They even temporarily suspended entry sales to the entire Flas Mine the park, allowing only exits.
Unaware of this developnt, Feng Yuan would surely think Veronia must have discovered sothing incredible to have such an order given.
"Sigh, we need to find her quickly and figure out what exactly she discovered. By the way, did Veronia ntion what she was doing?"
Sighing, Feng Yuan asked, looking at Agunas. With a flick of its tail, Agunas said,
"She discovered special Runes not belonging to the main tiline."
"Huh?! How is Veronia sure it doesn’t belong to the main tiline?"
Feng Yuan was taken aback. If it were things like Divine Runes, it could be directly refuted, but Runes...
Although theoretically, the world rules of the main tiline and ti streams are consistent, Runes themselves don’t directly express world rules. They are essentially special magical languages mastered by Rune-type Spirit Beasts.
Thus, such things are directly influenced by culture and environnt, appearing differently with varied effects. But precisely because of this, Feng Yuan didn’t understand how Veronia could be sure it was a mark left by a ti stream?
"Runes can be interpreted. The gist of these Runes is to open a temporal gap at this node for connection."
"Uh, that does seem possible."
Rubbing his chin, Feng Yuan realized Agunas made sense. Ordinary Spirit Beasts couldn’t do this, but Divine Beasts could; they manage the rules themselves and could force-interpret unfamiliar Runes without needing to learn the corresponding Rune systems.
After all, for a Rune to take effect, it ultimately needs to return to the world rules. Interpreting from the world rules is a trick.
"If that’s the case, let’s go and see. But if that’s true, could this be one of the invasion points?"
Looking at Agunas, Feng Yuan spoke with a headache. He wasn’t sure how many of these invasion points there were. After all, Runes have many aspects that ordinary people couldn’t interpret.
If not for Veronia’s ability to interpret them, there would likely be no suspicion of the Runes’ effects.
As for how it could be asserted that it’s the work of ti streams, it’s simple. A ti gap corresponds to a spatial rift. As there’s no spatial separation between the main tiline and ti streams but rather a temporal divide, spatial rifts cannot open channels leading to ti streams.
But Space Gate-like ultimate moves are a different story. As long as they involve Ti Power, even spacelike ultimate moves could target the ti streams.
And Space Gate-like ultimate moves naturally also contain a small amount of Ti Power, but in terms of transit capability, aren’t as convenient as rifts.
"Hard to say. I’ll have a clone check other amusent parks for similar things."
Flicking its tail, Agunas spoke with a headache. The hidden nature of Runes is too strong, and there’s almost no energy reaction before activation. If they’re hidden in places like amusent parks, it’s really challenging to detect them, especially since many places have decorative Runes where such a thing could be hidden.
