"Because I’m also searching for the sea."
After finally having so interaction, they were even talking quite well earlier, but unfortunately, the situation suddenly reversed in the next mont.
Facing Fu Qian’s accusations, the thief was obviously a bit nervous and quickly explained himself.
Although, on that remnant face, not too many emotional changes could be observed.
"Doesn’t that an you shouldn’t stop us?"
Unfortunately, despite the stance, the Temple Knight was still not satisfied.
Even the next mont, the difference in expression was vividly manifested, as Fu Qian frowned tightly, expressing his dissatisfaction, "Are you playing with ?"
"If it were really that simple, why would I still be here? I’m just telling you not to rush because there are certain things you should know."
However, the thief didn’t like being too passive all the ti. He quickly adjusted his emotions, sighed longingly, and even withdrew his blocking hand, respecting others’ fate.
Although he quickly realized that the other party might not continue forward through the cleared path, neither did they cooperate to ask what exactly "those things" ant, maintaining a rather poor attitude.
"...In this place, we are only a minority. Most others don’t think we can find the sea outside. On the contrary, they believe that all that’s outside is disaster and destruction."
After hesitating for a mont, the thief finally chose not to posture any further and directly elaborated.
A legendary opposing faction? Interesting.
"Outside?"
Only then did Fu Qian finally nod slightly and casually asked.
The indifference along the way wasn’t a demonstration of the Dark Moon Sect’s deviation from its path.
The thief’s opener was indeed interesting, but communication is a skill, and the way you interact with different characters varies.
With roles like these who love to mystify things, if you follow their rhythm all the way, you’ll likely start speaking in circles extrely efficiently, making the exchange exceedingly cumberso.
Even the Witch clearly shared this view and chose to maintain her aloof deanor throughout.
At first glance, it might seem rude, but here we could borrow a popular saying—it’s all for your good.
After all, the thief clearly belongs to a communicable character and shouldn’t be wasted easily.
If you don’t urge him to provide key information efficiently through this thod, then you’ll have to resort to a more forceful one.
Not to ntion, in theory, it was actually you and the Witch who first extended a greeting—
The thief may have hidden himself well but wasn’t invisible. Neither the Witch nor you dealt with him casually upon entering, and instead, engaged in a chat about Transcendent secrets. Wasn’t this stance sincere enough?
In such a scenario, wouldn’t it be impolite not to show your value?
"Yes, this is already the final stretch leading from the ruins to the outside. Just keep walking and you’ll leave this place."
"But beyond the end, there’s the Sea of Souls. Almost only I believe this, so if you really want to open that path, you’ll face strong opposition."
As facts proved, under continuous guidance, the thief finally started to get on track. Even when he t the anticipated interaction, he didn’t forget to minimize unnecessary content.
"Who opposes? Them?"
Satisfied with the communication result, Fu Qian gestured with his eyes toward the almost omnipresent bugs in the passage.
"No, their attacks are rely instinctive because you are intruders... As long as you stay here long enough, they won’t care about your actions."
The thief even climbed down a bit more, with half of his massive head peeking into the passage, explaining while observing the scene inside.
Moreover, in the next mont, he even took a deep breath, then opened his mouth wide.
Accompanied by a thick stench of rot, a dark green water ball traced an arc, landing accurately in the depths of the passage.
...
Considering the density of the bugs, without a doubt, it hit more than one target.
The attacked presence not only showed no signs of struggle or anger but swiftly twisted with a sort of delighted calm, basking in the putrid liquid.
In fact, it wasn’t just them—all the bugs seed to be drawn in, leading to a ’waterfall’ reversing its course, gathering in layers in the blink of an eye.
With these changes, an astonishing scene appeared—
The area initially covered by bugs was exposed, revealing below a pile of variously sized, crisscrossed stone tablets.
The end was cramd tightly, with thin streams of red sand flowing through the gaps.
Was this the intended destination of the giant movers ahead?
It’s hard to say how long they’ve been working, but they’re certainly industrious, and what you see here was already a significant amount.
"All along, they’ve been engaged in this action, tirelessly collecting stone tablets from the ruins to block the passage."
At this mont, the thief beside continued explaining, a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Understandable, since for them, if they don’t do this, the descending red sand would destroy everything, and these intangible bugs are the proof."
"So if you want to clear away these stone tablets, it’s sothing they absolutely cannot tolerate—"
"Their concern is justified."
Right when things heated up, an unexpected voice intervened.
The thief’s mockery of those ignorant fools was casually interrupted by the Witch.
Though the latter still wasn’t looking this way, instead discussing with her own Knight.
...
"A very fragile balance, whether it’s clearing away these stone tablets or forcibly going outside by other ans, it will likely cause this Dream to collapse directly."
Apparently not caring how the thief felt after hearing this, the Witch continued explaining her findings to her Knight.
"However, there is indeed sothing magical outside, as this location still remains unfathomable."
"So magical? Then it seems we should definitely take a look at the sea."
Fu Qian’s attitude was entirely different, comnting vividly.
"I don’t understand what you guys are talking about; are those guys right? Are you kidding? Do you really intend to find that sea representing the Spirit World?"
The thief beside finally couldn’t hold it in anymore, unleashing a barrage of three questions in one breath.
He even shrank back while speaking, seemingly wary of the two’s volatility.
"Of course, we want to find that sea—haven’t we been discussing this? The problem is, do you?"
Nevertheless, the courage he mustered did earn him a slight response.
Contemplating the information provided by the Witch, Fu Qian glanced at the thief and casually retorted.
"What do you an?"
At that mont, the remnants of his face finally changed for the first ti.
