Chapter 1460 Her Voice
In the dim corridor, Molly counted the door numbers, finally stopping in front of one door.
She hesitated at the doorway for a long time, looking down, but eventually gathered her courage and knocked on the door.
Knock, knock, knock—
A few light sounds echoed through the corridor, followed by complete silence.
Molly stood there, able to hear her own heart beating rapidly in the darkness. She kept organizing her thoughts, her palms slightly sweaty.
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
Molly stood at the door for about half a minute, but the door still didn’t open.
She paused for a moment, then knocked again, louder this time.
Behind the door, there was still no movement at all.
Molly’s lips pressed together slightly. She took a deep breath and spoke first:
“Lin Qiye said you weren’t feeling well, so I brought you the medicine box and made some porridge in the square… please open the door.”
After speaking, Molly stood at the door for a long time again.
Except for the noisy sounds from the distant square, the corridor remained completely silent.
“Baili Pangpang?” Molly called tentatively, “If you don’t want to see me, you can just say so from inside… can you hear me?”
Molly waited for a long time, and seeing still no response, concern appeared in her eyes.
No response even after calling like this… could he have passed out inside?
“I’m… I’m coming in?” Molly put her hand on the doorknob and tried to turn it, but found it was locked from the inside.
She gritted her teeth, about to activate [Universal Frequency], intending to destroy the lock directly, when a bolt of positive lightning suddenly burst from the doorknob, pushing away Molly’s hand. The repulsive force made her step back several paces.
Molly looked at her palm, stunned in place.
That positive lightning, she recognized it… Baili Pangpang was awake; he didn’t want to let her in.
Her fists clenched tightly, her chest heaving:
“Baili Pangpang, I know you’re in there! I’m not here to pester you, I just think we need to sit down and talk properly.
It was you who asked me to go to Guangshen back then, you who made me wait for hours in the rain, and you who asked me to wait for your return on the safety charm… And I did wait, I waited for you for several years, and finally saw you here…
But now, you don’t even dare to open the door to see me, to say a word? What kind of man are you?!”
Molly took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and continued:
“That day, you made me wait in the rain for several hours. I admit I was a bit angry then, but I don’t care about that anymore. Later when I heard about what happened to you, do you know how worried I was?
I requested a week’s leave from my team and stayed in Guangshen, looking for you around that area every day… only to hear later that you had already become a member of the special squad.”
“To be honest, I was quite happy for you.”
“You became a member of the special squad, and would definitely become more and more powerful in the future. You would walk ahead of everyone… so I kept working hard to improve, hoping that when you came back to find me, I wouldn’t become your burden.
Finally… today I saw you again.
You stood at the forefront of the beast tide, saving me and many others. At that time, I was thinking about when you would take the initiative to find me… but every time you noticed me, you deliberately avoided me, even unwilling to appear in front of me.
Fine, if you won’t come find me, I’ll have to come find you.”
Molly took out a sandalwood safety charm from her bosom and gently placed it in her palm.
She was silent for a moment, then slowly said,
“I came to find you, not to ask for anything… From the moment you kept avoiding me, I already had the answer in my heart.”
“But… I can understand,” Molly laughed self-mockingly. “After all, our story happened so many years ago. It’s normal that you, as the famous member of [Nightfall], found a more suitable girl during this time…
I, I originally wanted to find you, to have a good face-to-face talk, even just as friends.
But since you don’t want to see me… let’s forget it.”
Molly bent down and placed the medicine box and a steaming bowl of white porridge gently at the door.
Her gaze, complex, looked at the warm sandalwood safety charm in her palm. She sighed deeply and placed it on the ground as well.
She stood up, facing the tightly closed door, and spoke softly:
“I’m returning what you gave me… let our story end here.”
After speaking, she didn’t immediately turn to leave, but stood silently in the dim corridor. Only after several minutes did she shake her head, her figure disappearing at the end of the corridor.
The steam from the white porridge was gradually dispersed by the cold evening wind.
Behind the door, Baili Pangpang sat cross-legged on the bed, holding a jade ruyi in his palm. Countless patterns were drawn from the void, continuously pouring into his body, almost submerging him entirely.
From the corner of that statue-like figure’s eyes, two lines of clear tears silently slid down his cheeks…
…
Mist.
Greece, Olympus.
Between the black thunder clouds, towering mountains stood interlaced, thick lightning moved like giant snakes between mountains and clouds, the pale electric light illuminating the dense magnificent palaces on the mountain peaks.
Beyond the mountains, violent waves rolled in the mist.
A figure in a black clerical robe stood among the surging waves, looking at the distant Olympus mountain range with furrowed brows.
Crack—!
A streak of lightning crossed the sky, instantly striking the tallest peak, the thunderous roar making even the sea surface tremble slightly.
“Divine Judge, Zeus has come out of that ruin,” a shadow rose from the water flow behind Si Xiaonan and spoke solemnly.
Si Xiaonan narrowed her eyes at that peak, “Just him alone?”
“Just him alone, and he doesn’t seem to have any changes, doesn’t look like he’s been contaminated by the Cthulhu pantheon.”
“I see.” She was silent for a moment. “Has the person who went to report to Great Xia returned?”
“Yes, just recently. The source of the Indian Temple of Gods has been destroyed; Great Xia should have won this battle.”
Hearing this, Si Xiaonan let out a slight sigh of relief.
“There’s one more thing,” the shadow paused briefly. “About the whereabouts of Nyx, the Goddess of Night, that you asked us to investigate, we’ve made progress.”
“Speak.”
“After Nyx returned to Olympus, she led several loyal major gods to break away from Zeus’s system. The two sides fought for a long time without a clear winner. Later, Zeus proposed a one-on-one duel with Nyx, with the winner taking the throne, using the excuse that he didn’t want to see internal strife among the Greek gods.
After Nyx agreed, they fought at the peak of Mount Olympus for three days and three nights without determining a victor. But unexpectedly, Zeus colluded with the Indian Temple of Gods, and Brahma attacked from a distance, seriously injuring the Night Goddess who had already been greatly weakened by Zeus.
Nyx, dragging her severely wounded body, fought her way out and headed directly to the back side with several loyal major gods…”
