Chapter 331: Like-Minded!
Maryse, who was hiding in the restroom, took a deep breath.
“Ah.”
Then she realized she was taking deep breaths in the restroom.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Luckily, the hygiene here was impeccable, and the restroom had a pleasant orchid fragrance.
Maryse spoke cautiously, realizing that based on what Amy had analyzed in the forum, her identity was almost fully exposed.
When the five major families were being pressured to join the Babel Tower, she was present, revealing her identity to everyone.
Maryse furrowed her brows. Even if the five major families had agreed to hide their true identities, it would be impossible to fully conceal them from the Leaf King, the Imperial Guards, or the headquarters of the Demon Hunt Agency, given the soul enchantments and mind-reading abilities in play.
“So the situation right now is very delicate, and surprisingly, no one has come to bother me these past few days…”
The Babel Tower members were still wanted by the Air Alliance.
According to Amy’s analysis, the situation was a peculiar one: “They know you and Mu Ling are from the Babel Tower, but they pretend not to know, and you know they know, but pretend that you don’t know they know…”
Why was it like this?
The only explanation was that, even though the Babel Tower was still wanted by the Air Alliance on the surface, the top leaders had not reached a consensus on how to treat the Babel Tower, which had once saved the world.
“But it doesn’t feel like they’re allies either,” Maryse muttered.
If they were truly friendly toward the Babel Tower, why didn’t they just approach directly for collaboration or at least initiate a conversation?
Instead, they chose to ignore it all… as though they were secretly opposing it.
In the Air Alliance, even the Leaf King and Mr. World had to secretly oppose someone… and that someone could only be… Rainbow!
“So, the enemies who wanted to destroy the Babel Tower were actually the Rainbows?”
These were Amy’s guesses, and though they were hard to accept, no one could deny them.
The Rainbows were a common belief among the people of the Air Alliance. Even if most didn’t believe strongly, they still couldn’t bear the thought of them turning dark.
Amy said further investigation was needed to uncover the truth.
Inside the bathroom, Maryse plopped down onto the toilet seat, removed her bothersome silver high heels, and massaged her little feet while mumbling to herself:
“Okay, let’s begin. I am ready.”
The next moment, everything began to change.
Familiar magical teleportation.
When Maryse realized it, her body had already been transported to an unfamiliar street, surrounded by thick white mist.
Her bottom felt chilly… She stood up.
“Where am I?”
Maryse’s heart was filled with confusion as she looked around, searching for her teammates. It wasn’t until she spotted two familiar figures through the mist—two mischievous figures!
Oh my goodness! Playing dirty, are we?!
Except for me, they had all been defeated!
“Maryse, um, I mean ‘Psychic Dancer’… so nice to see you again so soon.”
Mu Ling, dressed in black, emerged from the mist with a sincere smile.
“You look beautiful today.”
She had never seen Maryse in an evening gown before, and she looked absolutely adorable, making Mu Ling want to give her a warm hug.
“Hmm…”
Maryse felt a mix of emotions and responded curtly.
I can’t stand it… What’s wrong with these guys? What on earth did they grow up eating?
Wait until I’ve matured for several decades. The future me will definitely leave them in awe!
With these thoughts in mind, a faint smile tugged at the corner of the little puppy’s mouth.
Hmph!
Enduring silently!
“Sacred Heart’s Chosen,” Aurora said perplexedly, looking around.
“Where am I? I’ve traveled the Continent of Zeuo for years, but I’ve never been to this city before.”
“If you’ve been here before, then you would understand why things are not normal,” Mu Ling replied seriously, shaking her head.
“This isn’t the world where you live. This is the world where we exist—Noah.”
What?
Aurora’s pupils shrank, clearly stunned.
Mu Ling continued, “If I’m right, we should be in one of Noah’s three major countries, the Eruo League. The locals call it the Kingdom of Dark Light.”
“In another world… Noah… the Kingdom of Dark Light…”
Upon hearing Mu Ling’s explanation, Aurora’s mind filled with unfamiliar terms, leaving her momentarily stunned.
In the world Aurora knew, unlike Noah’s world, there was no widespread technology for traveling between worlds. This kind of thing was an unprecedented possibility for her!
The Savior of Babel Tower—possessing such divine power—was truly unbelievable!
Mu Ling suddenly leapt up and directly jumped onto a roof.
She was not surprised at all.
“My body moved. It must be the great Savior controlling me… Hurry, follow me!”
Maryse and Aurora immediately followed, though Aurora observed her surroundings along the way.
This world, enveloped in white mist, seemed more advanced and civilized than her own world.
Most of the buildings were made of a strong, special stone material that was incredibly sturdy, capable of constructing tall buildings.
The streets were clean and tidy, the ground smooth. It felt as if they were designed for palaces or churches.
In the Holy Light Kingdom where Aurora lived, there were far fewer stone houses than wooden ones, and the streets were narrow and muddy.
The difference in productivity was clear for all to see.
“The only flaw is the fog… but it seems the locals prefer to stay indoors. Could it be the usual weather here isn’t like this?”
Aurora pondered silently.
Before long, they spotted their enemies.
Though disguised as normal civilians, Maryse immediately sensed their flaws through her psychic powers.
“There are cultists over there!” she exclaimed, pointing.
Before Maryse could issue a warning, Mu Ling had already transformed into a beam of light.
In the blink of an eye, she rushed into the house and took down the opponent with a single strike.
“Can cultists… just kill people at will?”
Aurora frowned slightly, struggling to understand the conflict between this world’s people and the cultists.
In the Continent of Zeuo, there were no such evil cults.
The trio raced through the streets. Mu Ling’s face remained expressionless as she swiftly eliminated more cultists.
One swing of her sword, and no one escaped.
Some cultists disguised as civilians pulled out weapons to fight back, while others fled in fear.
But their fates were the same.
Death was inevitable.
They continued until they reached a bustling street filled with a large crowd.
“There is a strong scent here. Be careful,” Aurora warned.
The thick white mist began to dissipate, revealing them to the onlookers.
What an incredibly beautiful sight!
The three women were astonishingly beautiful, especially the young girl with silver hair and wine-red eyes, like a goddess of the night.
The only flaw was Maryse, who, exhausted from running with “Deep Red – Divine Punishment,” was bent over, gasping for breath, unlike the other two, who stood upright.
“Three beautiful girls…”
“Wait a minute, are they the ones from the Babel Tower mentioned in the newspaper?”
“It seems, it really seems like the people from the Babel Tower!”
Just then, a monster with six scythe-like arms emerged from the ground!
“Roarrr!”
The massive blue Chilnoth, towering tens of meters tall, roared into the sky and swung its sharp arms toward the enemies.
In an instant, Mu Ling severed its scythe-like arms, and blue blood poured out wildly!
At that moment, Aurora’s body moved instinctively.
[Sacred Heart’s Chosen]
[Summon thy knights…]
[Reveal your true power!]
She raised her hand, astonished to see her long-time companion, the Dragon Blood War Horse, appear beside her.
“Huh.”
The armored warhorse gently lowered its head in acknowledgment.
Suddenly, twelve knights loyal to Aurora appeared around her.
The knights instinctively surveyed their surroundings, cautious of the strange environment.
“What is this place? What is that creature? Why isn’t it snowing anymore? Does it mean the Decaying Disaster is over?”
Judy, the deputy, exclaimed, “Why is there such thick fog? You mentioned being summoned by the Savior… we were preparing a campfire back at the camp, and now we’re here!”
Aurora smiled faintly, dismissing the confusion.
“Let’s explain later. Time’s running out. Gather in formation.”
The knights immediately formed a charging formation, no questions asked.
Aurora, holding her lance high, shouted, “Fighting for the sake of many! Charge!”
She unleashed “the Chosen Gun,” and the knights merged into a torrent of golden power, crashing into the massive Chilnoth.
“Boom!”
The giant creature collapsed instantly, shattered into pieces!
After the charge, the knights revealed their forms.
“Well done!” Aurora smiled.
Mu Ling walked over to Aurora and the knights.
The knights immediately became vigilant.
Aurora gestured.
“She’s a friend.”
“You have a wonderful group of companions,” Mu Ling complimented. Their strength was impressive. Six months ago, she would have been defeated by any two of them.
Aurora smiled, then looked at Maryse, who was resting on the ground.
“Your companion is great too, though she doesn’t show it openly…”
Mu Ling, seriously, added, “From now on, I will be your companion too.”
Aurora paused, holding the reins of the horse. “If there’s a chance, I’ll ask the Savior of Babel Tower if they could relocate the people of Zeuo here.”
Mu Ling shook her head. “No, this world isn’t beautiful either.”
Aurora sighed, “I see.”
At that moment, the knights vanished without a trace.
Aurora raised an eyebrow, murmuring, “Are they like me, unable to stay here for long? Summoned beings…?”
Soon, the Dragon Blood War Horse also disappeared.
“Although this world may collapse at any moment…”
Mu Ling took a deep breath.
“As long as the Babel Tower unites under the Savior’s leadership, we will destroy all evil and save every innocent soul in the world!”
Aurora smiled, gripping Mu Ling’s hand.
“I believe that day will come.”
Watching them, Maryse rolled her eyes.
“What on earth are you so excited about? I don’t understand!”
In the land of wishes, Maryse pondered her own desires…
For some unknown reason, she recalled Profligate.
There were very few things she couldn’t obtain right now. The only thing she had consistently failed to grasp, she had no idea how to get.
Perhaps, she thought, she needed to be more proactive?
