841: Chapter 842: Preparation for Departure 841: Chapter 842: Preparation for Departure “That’s not quite appropriate…
Mr.
Yan is single…”
Chen Xin said sowhat speechlessly, asking Mr.
Yan to take care of a little girl?
He feared that returning to school would bring all sorts of rumors, and indeed, it was unreliable; Mr.
Yan didn’t seem like the caregiving type.
“Just leave her with you then, since you can communicate with her, anyway.
It would be more troubleso if she followed us.”
Feng Yuan spoke up, seeing the little girl hiding behind Mr.
Yan, Gladys sowhat helplessly said,
“I don’t mind, but she might not be willing.”
“What a hassle, but what does it have to do with ~”
Feng Yuan whistled carelessly, and Gladys glanced at him with a smile and said,
“That can’t be said for sure.”
“Could there be so problem?”
Feng Yuan looked at Gladys with so confusion, who mysteriously smiled back but didn’t answer his question.
Xiao Ji was curious about the little girl and even walked up to observe her closely, but as soon as Xiao Ji approached, her body beca sowhat unstable—as if she were a holographic image being interfered with.
“Don’t get close to her; your attribute is the exact counter to spirit bodies.”
Feng Yuan said sowhat speechlessly to Xiao Ji, and Agunas flicked his tail and said,
“Spirit bodies shouldn’t count as souls, right?”
“Not quite, but it’s a similar nature.”
After chatting for a while, they ultimately decided that Gladys would take care of the little girl, with Feng Yuan and others offering so assistance.
Just as everyone had finished lunch and ca out of the hotel restaurant, Feng Yuan saw the white-haired middle-aged man.
“Do you have that much free ti…”
Feng Yuan looked at Lorraine Tower sowhat speechlessly, who glanced at the little girl behind Mr.
Yan and said,
“As compensation for helping her with reverse evolution, I hope you can help her through her difficulties, and as for you…
I hope you can lend a hand.”
Feng Yuan scratched his head, a bit puzzled.
What reverse evolution?
Then, a light blue, semi-transparent chibi spiritual body holding an ancient copper bell stuck its head out curiously behind Mr.
Yan, observing the white-haired middle-aged man.
The soccer ball-sized spiritual body couldn’t be concealed by Mr.
Yan’s head, exposing most of itself without seeming to notice.
After a mont of silence, Mr.
Yan nodded in agreent, and Feng Yuan, not understanding, said,
“What exactly are you trying to do?”
Glancing at Gladys, Lorraine Tower calmly said,
“If you want to know, you can witness it yourself.”
“Hey!”
Feng Yuan tried to grab Lorraine Tower, who turned to leave, but the next second, he disappeared, leaving Feng Yuan grabbing at thin air.
Pulling out the pitch-black ancient book, Feng Yuan thought about it and then put it back, muttering displeased,
“Annoying!
So secretive!”
“Aren’t you doing the sa?
Are you planning to go with her?”
Agunas glanced at the little girl, whose form was a bit blurry, and seeing this, Feng Yuan paused and said,
“That fast?
I haven’t even taken her to properly tour Maomu City and now…”
“You could forcefully keep her here, but doing that…”
“Let it be, go with the flow.”
Feng Yuan scratched his head with so resignation.
Forcibly keeping soone wasn’t out of the question, but it could affect history.
Glancing at the little girl, Feng Yuan said with regret,
“That’s a pity; I had promised to take you around Maomu City, but it seems that won’t be possible.
If fate allows, I would really like to show you around this interesting city~”
The little girl looked at Feng Yuan puzzled.
Although she didn’t understand a word, that didn’t stop her from morizing this utterance hard, sensing that it might be a promise.
Maybe he could help her tribe get through tough tis?
The little girl thought secretly.
“Aren’t you going back to prepare?
Mordan in the snow and ice…
is not a friendly place.”
Gladys voiced a reminder, looking at Feng Yuan with an inexplicable expression, and asked curiously,
“Don’t you need to prepare?”
“What’s there to prepare?
It’s just a bit colder.”
Feng Yuan said nonchalantly, and Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan’s clothes and said,
“With the clothes you’re wearing, you’d be lucky not to catch a cold.
At least put on so cotton clothes.”
“Tsk!
Such a hassle.
Agunas, you’re up for the task—it’s a trouble~”
Feng Yuan glanced at the ancient book Agunas was holding and tossed it aside.
The space gate was imdiately opened.
Watching Feng Yuan leave, Gladys smiled and said,
“If you guys want to go, you can go together.
Although it’s sowhat dangerous, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to protect yourselves.”
Chen Xin looked at the little girl and thought for a mont before asking,
“Is there anything we need to be aware of?”
“You’re planning to go?
Let think.
That’s Mordan from more than ten years ago.
The difference from now isn’t particularly great.
However, Mordan’s technology is quite behind compared to the Divine Land Region.
It’s better not to bring any technological products back with you.
As for mobile phones, even though they might accidentally connect to the old communication systems, it shouldn’t be a big issue.
The Alliance has grown accustod to such things.”
Gladys laughed at her own words, and Qi Chen, sowhat puzzled, asked,
“What do you an by ‘accidentally connect’?”
“It ans your phones might connect to the communication systems of the Alliance from over ten years ago.
Don’t forget, in addition to the paid communication operators, there’s also the Alliance’s mandatory ergency communication lines.
Those lines don’t have very strict identity verification, and besides, that system hasn’t been updated in decades.”
“Could it be that many people have done this before?”
Dou Yanlan was puzzled.
If that were the case, why wouldn’t Lorraine Tower take care of it?
Gladys smiled and said,
“Not really, it’s just…
a severe temporal displacent once happened.
People from different tilines swapped places with each other, and the impact was significant.
However, it was never made public.”
“Then why would you…”
Seeing Qi Chen’s suspicion, Gladys lightly pressed her red lips and said,
“People who can peek into fate always see things that others can’t~”
“Let’s go, let’s go back and get so things first.
With what we’re wearing now, we won’t be able to withstand the cold of the blizzard.”
Although there were still many things they wanted to understand, Dou Yanlan still pulled Qi Chen into the space gate.
Chen Xin thought for a mont and then turned to leave, leaving only Gladys and Professor Yan there.
The professor glanced at the little girl, pushed her towards Gladys, and said,
“I’m going back to prepare as well.”
“Co back before three o’clock.
She’ll return to her original ti point at that ti.”
Gladys said aloud.
She wasn’t sure if Feng Yuan and the others would notify him, but in her view, Chen Xin and the others were just added extras; the main force should still be Feng Yuan.
“I never expected it would be you…
Although I had a premonition before, it’s still…”
Gladys murmured softly as she looked at the little girl, then shook her head and led her back to the room.
“Do you need any help?”
Veronia, sitting on Feng Yuan’s bed, asked as she put on her cloak.
Feng Yuan shook the clothes on his body and said,
“No need, but if you want to watch the excitent, you’re welco to join us.”
“Excitent?
Never mind.”
Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan, shook her head, and gave up on the idea.
She wasn’t much interested in such things.
Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said,
“I thought you’d bring a cotton coat.”
“Forget it, a cotton coat is not as convenient for moving around as a ritual robe.”
Feng Yuan tugged at his sleeves.
The ritual robe itself was quite difficult to make, so naturally, wearing it was much more effective than an ordinary cotton coat, not to ntion that it provided constant temperature protection and didn’t restrict movents as much as cotton coats, which could feel sowhat bulky.
Qi Chen took out his backpack and said,
“Do we need to bring any tools?”
“No need, we’ll hunt on the spot.
We’re not going to any wilderness, and the people of Mordan definitely won’t be lacking your tools.”
Feng Yuan said while sorting his clothes and put a little cotton coat on Pomiti.
Xiao Ji, dissatisfied, chirped in protest.
Feng Yuan tapped Xiao Ji on the head and said without words,
“What are you jealous of?
If you wear clothes, do you still need to fly?”
After fluttering its wings and looking around, Xiao Ji turned its head away sowhat embarrassedly.
“Aren’t you supposed to help?
Then not bringing tools over…”
“There’s no need.
Mixing things from different tilines together can easily create chaos, even though the Alliance helps cover things up…”
“The Alliance helps cover things up?”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with so surprise.
Shrugging, Feng Yuan said helplessly,
“What else?
It’s rare, but occasionally special situations cause people from different ti points to cross through the gate.
The Alliance usually helps cover up these incidents to prevent causing any major upheaval.
Before the Alliance, it was the Divine Beast Hall that handled these matters.”
“Of course, they’re mostly just sweeping up.
The main force is actually the likes of Lorraine Tower.”
Feng Yuan said as he looked at the teddy bear he had left on the table, a souvenir he had gotten while shopping at the departnt center the day before.
