Miss Riddler just wants to level up quietly

Theresa was upset when she heard Rita changing the subject and teasing her.

Nightingale's action just now really scared her, it happened suddenly.

On second thought, there is nothing we can do about it.

If she were to do it, there is a high probability that it would not be as good as the former.

"Ahem, I have a hunch that we are about to enter the center of this world."

The purification center is the core of the destiny defense. Within a few steps, there is a guard. After entering, you must abide by a series of strict rules and regulations, which shows the degree of attention it pays.

When he opened the closed security door, he saw a familiar sight.

Warm light filtered in from the stained glass of the window, illuminating the scriptures on the prayer table, coating them with a layer of white scale light.

On both sides are neat rows of specially-made wooden chairs, painted red in glaze, giving an unsettling solemnity.

"You know, once the purification device is turned on, no one can escape from here unless all life reactions are completely eliminated."

Feeling the cold touch, Rita explained next to the pillar.

Several chairs at the front fell over, probably because the girl just made a mess.

"It's too much. Is it necessary to go to this extent?"

Theresa took a breath. If she is infected with Honkai erosion, she needs to be sent for 'treatment'. Is this too extreme?

"Every city invaded by the Herrschers of Corrosion was destroyed, and kindness prevented them from surviving even a week."

"..."

Theresa was speechless.

"Rita, have you ever played a game with a high degree of freedom?"

"No matter how big the map is, it still has boundaries, and exploring boundaries has always been popular."

The girl's deep eyes reflected the cross of the church, and Rita stood beside her, savoring her words over and over again.

"You mean we can get out of here as long as we find the border?"

"I also want to help. If you continue to be trapped here, the anchor point that fixes the real world will fail."

Their goal is to retrieve the longing gem that was thrown into the world by the world snake and to rescue the leader of the counter-merchant alliance.

If you stop moving forward, you will be submerged by the rising tide.

"You cannot find the boundary by moving forward alone. The world is endless."

Ziyao nodded, confirming what the two of them said.

Last night I sent a stargazer to explore and discovered a fact that was both surprising and unexpected.

It seemed like the entire world was destroyed except this city.

Just like the box garden-style game design, outside the visible buildings, there is only an endless void - because there is no need to create.

"Do you have any other ideas?"

Facing the curious eyes of the two girls, Ziyao revealed her plan.

"Everyone only focuses on exploring the end of the map, and rarely pays attention to the limit under the floor..."

But before she leaves, she needs to find the Desire Gem.

Since it can't be found anywhere else in the city, maybe...

With this in mind, Ziyao looked into the depths of the church.

——Come and watch the stars tonight.

"I see, Zi...Miss Nightingale is really talented and intelligent."

It dawned on Rita that she hadn't expected this.

After the three people visited the clean room, they were soon invited back to the ground floor by the staff.

As soon as they came up, the three of them bumped into the frowning Youlandel.

It must be because of the incident of killing the girl just now. Ziyao shrugged and let the two of them go first.

Youlandel circled around her first, and then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no damage to her body.

Holding the girl's weak, boneless, slightly cold hand, her high heels made a low 'clack' sound when she stepped on the ground, and led her to a deserted corner.

"elder sister....?"

Hearing the girl call her "sister", Youlandel's heart softened a lot.

The harsh words I had just prepared were hastily changed.

But preaching is definitely inevitable. After all, it is still at this juncture that he has done such a dangerous thing.

Ziyao's behavior was too outrageous and did not comply with the procedures.

Especially when he heard that she hugged the other party, this made Hollandelle's heart beat several times.

After finishing the work at hand, she immediately came to the elevator and waited.

As a result, Ziyao was banned from entering the purification center.

Rita, who was standing outside, smiled from time to time. This was the first time she had seen Hollander look so verbose, nagging and repeating one thing over and over again, much like some elders.

After nearly half an hour of preaching, the girl finally found relief.

Walking out of the building, she noticed the maid who had been waiting outside despite the wind and snow.

"Please let me give you a ride."

Rita complimented, bowing slightly, raising her lace-wrapped cuffs in a 'please' gesture.

Just as she was about to walk side by side, she stopped when she saw the girl not far away.

Rita understood immediately and smiled.

When she left, she suddenly felt a cold feeling behind her. She looked around and couldn't find the reason.

On the other side, the cold wind blew by, making people shiver and at the same time wake up a little.

Looking along the end of the road, Bronya stopped in the snow.

Gray blue silk is intertwined into a floral white skirt, with florals on both sides of the collar and a waistband that fits the chest. It perfectly combines the elegance of the dress shirt with the beauty of the long skirt, which not only sets off the cute and petite girl, It just covers up the poverty on the chest.

"The desire gem is not out there."

Bronya looked back and saw the towering Tianming Building so conspicuous.

"Xie'er told me that she needs to get the gems before she can leave."

The silent snow dyed her shoulders white, and the white mist dissipated in the cold air.

The girl was holding a strange snowman doll in her hand, with short limbs and a deafened head, like a drowned dog that had lost a battle.

"I rarely see you showing a lonely expression. What's wrong? Do you want to tell me?"

Bronya avoided the familiar Ziyao. From the perspective of others, the girl was obviously wary of the latter.

Leaving Tianming, the two came to a remote alley, which was a shortcut back to the apartment.

The surroundings were suddenly very quiet, and there wasn't even a person.

"It seems you know Bronya very well?"

"Well, because I've been paying attention to you."

"Whether it's loneliness or unhappiness, these emotions are precious and important."

Taking the girl's hand, Ziyao said something that made people blush.

But Bronya's reaction was dull, or no reaction at all.

Although there is no change on the surface, the girl always listens carefully to what others say.

The truly unpredictable person is her.

Noticing Ziyao's absent-mindedness, Bronya threw her hand away.

"Is there a problem?"

"Speaking of which, Xi'er seems to have run out of underwear..."

Ziyao felt a gaze.

It was so subtle that it almost escaped her perception.

Looking through the mirror towards the clock tower behind her, she caught a glimpse of a black figure.

Ziyao continued to act as if nothing had happened, and proposed to take a long way to buy clothes for Xi'er.

Sure enough, someone was really following them.

The other party was extremely cautious and showed almost no clues.

Ziyao deliberately and accidentally broke the mirror in front of the clothing store. Among the colorful and flashing fragments, she saw the gray snake hiding in the shadows, and there seemed to be someone next to him.

After buying clothes, the sight is still there.

Along the way, Bronya said nothing.

Not far away was the apartment where they lived. She suddenly stopped and asked.

"Where are you from?"

"Reality, or the quantum sea?"

Although they are strangers, they care about them very much and even claim to be her in the future.

Whether it was base pairs or other genetic information, the girl in front of her perfectly matched hers, confirming what she said.

After thinking to no avail, Bronya chose the simplest way.

Since we can't know the details, it's better to distinguish between camps.

"outside."

Ziyao simply replied.

"World snake?"
