"Wind City, huh, we’ve heard about it, people say it’s a relatively safe zone."
"A year ago, there was trouble on Longxia’s side, and it’s said that a large number of Longxia People were migrating through tunnels to Wind City."
"But we didn’t pay much attention, so we didn’t focus on it."
Morioka Hitomi said with so embarrassnt.
Wen Xishu was puzzled:
"Hujiang has beco so chaotic... don’t you want to escape from here?"
Morioka Hitomi shook her head:
"I’m sorry, Brother Xishu, we don’t want to leave here. This place holds too many stories, there are too many people suffering here..."
"The power that Sister Xiaoxing and I have is practically ant to bring peace to this place. Even though there are so many people suffering that multiple uses of the Goddess of Suffering and Lian King’s Reincarnation can’t fully redeem them."
"But I can’t abandon the people here. If I left here... then many people would fall into despair."
Having experienced redemption once, it made especially want to redeem others once I had the power.
Morioka Hitomi did not disappoint Wen Xishu, and Wen Xishu could understand her reasoning:
"Alright, you’re indeed doing a difficult but right thing."
Master Lingqing added at this mont:
"First, we cannot abandon the suffering people of Hujiang..."
"Secondly, we’re wary of all ’safe zones.’"
"Whenever an area is free of strife, claiming to be a safe zone, a civilized place... a city without shattered buildings, you should be cautious."
"In an apocalypse, such a city might be even more dangerous than Hujiang."
Wen Xishu instantly understood.
He had experienced this in the power of Pisces.
He had seen a city where everything was orderly, everyone lived lazily, seemingly unaffected by war...
But the truth was, in that city—there were only monsters.
Thinking of this, Wen Xishu roughly understood.
Wind City probably gives off that kind of feeling, no wonder their old friends at Hujiang are unwilling to go.
Besides, from afar, he had seen a glimpse of Wind City, influenced by Pisces’ power during the Ark mission, looking into the future of Wind City.
Half the sky was red, almost comparable to the Red House gathering place.
That place indeed doesn’t seem like a refuge.
[This mission has been perfectly completed, and I’m about to proceed to the Three Towers Company to receive the outbound compensation for this ti.]
Farewells always co so abruptly.
When this ssage floated in Wen Xishu’s mind, he sighed helplessly:
"My ti is up... Sorry, it seems I can no longer accompany you all. I have to go. Who knows when we’ll et again next ti, but perhaps in the future, you’ll hear of so of my exploits."
Morioka Hitomi’s eyes were filled with reluctance:
"I will never forget you and Brother Wenren, I look forward to seeing you again, it’s truly a pity... I really wanted Sister Xiaoxing to et you too..."
"When she wakes up, she’ll surely be glad you’re still alive, but she might also... be very sad for not having seen you?"
Tears glimred in Morioka Hitomi’s eyes.
Wen Xishu suddenly felt a peculiar, warm feeling deep within his heart.
It was like a seed planted long ago had taken root, sprouted, and finally blossod and bore fruit.
"Wenren Mirror is also fine, and is still growing. We will et again one day." Wen Xishu said.
Wen Xishu’s figure suddenly flickered for a mont. At this mont, Master Lingqing said:
"This talisman contains the power of Lian King and the Goddess of Suffering, please take it. It will help you defeat so enemies that are difficult to overco by conventional ans."
Wen Xishu wasn’t sure if he could keep the talisman, whether he could take it back to Deceit Tower?
But since Master Lingqing insisted, he had no choice but to accept it.
After handing over the talisman, Wen Xishu tried hard to think if there was anything he wanted to ask or advise...
But there was no ti, that familiar dizziness ca.
In the eyes of Master Lingqing and Morioka Hitomi, Wen Xishu had already disappeared.
Rin Kawato said:
"He... he is called Wen Xishu? Is he from Longxia? He feels like a warrior from another ti and space."
Even though Rin Kawato looked confused and couldn’t understand the conversation, he knew he had been saved.
Morioka Hitomi smiled:
"Yes, his na is Wen Xishu, soone who brings miracles to others’ lives."
...
...
Three Towers Company, 111th floor.
When Wen Xishu opened his eyes again, he had already appeared in a place quite similar to the Land of Reception.
"Sigh," a sigh echoed in the space.
Wen Xishu looked towards the source of the sigh, it was Qilin, Mo Bai.
It might be an illusion... Wen Xishu felt that Mo Bai seed different.
"Your efficiency in completing the task is impressive, you quickly found the target. I didn’t expect you to finish in less than three hours. Truly remarkable." Mo Bai said to Wen Xishu.
There was an unexpected trace of compassion on Mo Bai’s face, making Wen Xishu feel a bit strange.
Wen Xishu also suspected he rembered wrongly.
But he vaguely recalled that not long ago when he saw Qilin, the hair was black on the left, white on the right, the clothes were white on the left, black on the right.
Presenting a sense of alternating black and white.
Now, it was still alternating black and white, this perception hadn’t changed, but Wen Xishu noticed... the hair had beco white on the left, black on the right, the clothes beca black on the left, white on the right.
He rarely doubted his mory was failing, but at this mont, it indeed felt odd.
"Did you kill the target?" Qilin asked.
Wen Xishu was puzzled:
"Don’t you already know?"
Qilin shook his head:
"I know, but I need to verify. Once you complete the task, you earn points, which can be used to purchase many things."
"Just like the team survival ga you completed, but the points you earn from completing tasks are much more valuable than those in the ga, which can only buy dications and stimulants."
