Ye Kai was led by Li Zheng to think aside, weighing whether the value was balanced and if it was worth agreeing to Li Zheng’s conditions.
Li Zheng let him ponder slowly, as the final result wouldn’t be a loss for him anyway.
Lin Longxuan received a bunch of gifts that exceeded his own strength, leaving him numb, feeling it would be frivolous to laugh, so he held back, forcing a peculiar expression.
"By the way, who is this behind you?" Xiao Siyuan pointed at Su Xiaoya, who was following Lin Longxuan, feigning ignorance.
All the information that could be explored about Su Xiaoya had long been seen through by several players possessing Prel’s Eye, but it was inconvenient to disclose.
"Let introduce everyone." Lin Longxuan reacted: "Her na is Su Xiaoya, she’s... my partner!"
Partner.
Upon hearing this term, Su Xiaoya looked at Lin Longxuan, revealing a reserved and gentle smile.
"What tier?" Li Zheng asked unexpectedly.
"Silver Level Elite."
Lin Longxuan didn’t speak, it was Su Xiaoya who answered with her own mouth.
"Silver Level Elite?"
Ye Yuan chewed on these words and suddenly realized that wasn’t this usually used to assess pet strength?
"So you’re..." This sentence was unfinished, as Chu Xiao’s large hand imdiately covered Ye Yuan’s mouth, almost choking her.
"Yes, I’m actually Xiaoxuan’s pet." Su Xiaoya smiled gracefully, a fluffy tail rising behind her.
Pure white, with fluffy fur, akin to a fox’s tail.
The mont this tail appeared, the air was filled with a refreshing fragrance, a scent that invigorated the senses.
Li Zheng took a sniff, amazed that the scent could improve the recovery speed of his Genetic Force slightly!

A superb pet!
Absolutely a superb pet that everyone in the Matrix would envy!
Li Zheng sighed regretfully, unfortunately, the loyalty was already full, even unto death, she would follow Lin Longxuan to the grave.
In comparison, looking at a certain Diamond Level leader...
Alas!
Li Zheng sighed again.
Forget it, comparing people can be infuriating.
To gain the acknowledgnt of such a good pet ans Lin Longxuan’s character is still comndable, otherwise, Su Xiaoya’s loyalty wouldn’t reach a level of utter devotion.
"Su Xiaoya?" Lin Fengjiao gently repeated this na, "I seem to have heard this na sowhere before?"
"Xiaoxuan said it’s a na second only in importance to his sister in his mory," Su Xiaoya said, "so I took it."
Lin Longxuan explained: "Actually, I don’t know where this na ca from, but I just rembered it..."
Previously, he lived a muddled life, almost without mories, but after healing to beco a normal person, only two nas were left in his mory: his sister’s and this inexplicable one.
"Su Xiaoya..." Lin Fengjiao pondered for a mont: "It seems to be the na of a landlord’s daughter from a few years ago, about Xiaoxuan’s age, who often brought snacks to play with Xiaoxuan."
"It was probably then that you rembered this na, right."
The girl nad Su Xiaoya was one of the few willing to play with Lin Longxuan, so it’s not surprising he rembered her na.
"Similar age?" Yan Guang’s eyes lit up, "Does that an there’s a girl nad Su Xiaoya in the Matrix, whom Xiao Xuan knows?"
If she could be found and brought here...
"No!" Lin Fengjiao shook her head, "There are many girls with that na, but that Su Xiaoya could never appear in the Matrix!"
"Huh?" Yan Guang was taken aback, "Why?"
"Because she has already passed away," Lin Fengjiao said, "Leukemia. Her family sold their house to pay for her treatnt, but in the end, she couldn’t be cured. That was when we moved away, Xiao Xuan and I."
"Passed away?" Lin Longxuan was stunned, "Why don’t I rember this?"
"Of course you don’t rember. After we moved, you cried a lot wanting to play with Su Xiaoya for a long ti. I was so dazed earlier that I didn’t think of the origin of her na."
"Let’s not discuss this topic," Yan Guang interrupted, switching the subject, "I’ve been curious, where did the people removed from the Matrix go for treatnt back then, do you rember?"
Before discovering the existence of the Outer City, Yan Guang might have thought the Matrix had established a dical point on Earth specifically for healing players.
But now, it doesn’t seem that way.
"I don’t rember," Lin Longxuan shook his head with pursed lips, "Logically, I was healed there; I should have so impression of that place."
"But I’ve asked many people, and they only rember going to a place, yet can’t recall where it was."
"If I try to recall carefully, there’s only a white light in my mind, and many people falling down."
"When I opened my eyes again, I was in the Matrix."
A flash of white light?
Li Zheng frowned, because in his mory, too, a white light flashed and many people around him fell down.
Looking at others, almost everyone had the sa expression, indicating similar mories.
Only Zhan Zhouzhou asked, "Could it be that you all entered like this?"
"You an you’re not?" Everyone was surprised.
"The situation is quite similar," Zhan Zhouzhou recalled, "Initially, there was also a flash of white light before my eyes, but I fell later than the others, and before losing consciousness, I saw sothing strange."
"I know you’re curious about what it was, I’ll draw it for you."
Saying this, Zhan Zhouzhou squatted on the ground, randomly took out a bottle of blood from a capsule, dipped her finger in it, and drew slowly.
She often replicated swordsmanship diagrams, drawing those little figures vividly, showing her profound drawing skills.
Soon after, she had drawn what she saw.
A few wavy lines, below the waves were two parallel vertical lines, with intersecting dashed lines connecting the middle, forming a dense cluster of intersection points.
At the very bottom of the drawing was a larger diamond shape, with countless blocks like a Rubik’s cube, but the drawing was too small, so Zhan Zhouzhou simply sketched it a bit casually.
"What is this? Looks like a chimney." Phoenix Mountain changed angles a few tis, finally concluding, "This is a chimney!"
"Don’t speak rashly," Yan Guang nudged Phoenix Mountain, "I think it looks like half a concealed tower, but wouldn’t the diamond-shaped formation below it be the Matrix we’re currently in?"
"Probably," Chu Xiao shouted, "Ye Kai, you’re used to dealing with blueprints, co take a look at this!"
Ye Kai was still considering matters of transactions, but upon hearing Chu Xiao’s call, he ca over.
Seeing the pattern drawn on the ground, he visibly paused, "Isn’t this the frequent Logo on blueprints? What’s so strange about it?"
"Logo?!" Everyone was stumped by his remark.
"Yeah, when you plug a USB into the data terminal, that’s the computers encountered during exploration, they’ll show this graphic," Ye Kai explained, "Though those words are unreadable, the patterns inside are the schematic diagrams for crafting each tool. Those of us into chanics and research always delve into these blueprints."
"In the corner of each blueprint...oh no, it’s in the corner of every single blueprint that this sa Logo appears."
With his explanation, everyone involuntarily recalled their process of studying the blueprints.
Although they hadn’t looked at it closely, they vaguely rembered the patterns appearing on those blueprints.
"So, the truth of the Matrix was always under our noses, and we turned a blind eye to it?" Li Zheng was exasperated, having never closely examined those graphics, thinking it was just a ga setting.
"Not right!"
Zhan Zhouzhou, who had been frowning, suddenly poured the entire bottle of blood beside her illustration, saying, "This is what I saw in its entirety!"
"Entirety?" Now it was Ye Kai’s turn to be confused, pointing at the blotch of blood, "What does this represent?"
Zhan Zhouzhou carefully and seriously shook her head, "I don’t know!"
"Don’t know?"
Even though she’d seen it firsthand, drawn it out, yet couldn’t articulate its essence?
"I truly don’t know!" Zhan Zhouzhou explained, "I can’t even describe its shape; it feels like it’s constantly changing and..."
"For so reason, even though I only glanced at it, I have a sense that it’s approaching Earth."
"Once it officially descends upon Earth, the real catastrophe will arrive!"
The real catastrophe?
Isn’t the fact that all humanity was pulled into this ga by the Matrix a catastrophe?
What could the real catastrophe be?
The disappearance of human civilization, the entire Earth?
Not expressing herself clearly, Zhan Zhouzhou, until Phoenix Mountain with a suddenly wild idea asked, "Do you all think...could the Matrix be here to save us and Earth?"
