In the research institute, Mier and Mia both looked unhappy after waking up.
"Mi'er." Mia Mia whispered, "You look a little ugly."
"Stop talking. I had several nightmares last night." Mi'er said tiredly.
"Me too!" Mia screamed, "I dreamed that I was trapped in a sunken palace under Constantinople, and the surface was full of vicious dogs patrolling!"
"I..." Mi'er opened her mouth and said, "About the same."
In fact, she dreamed that Ask and other girls in the team took turns getting married, and she was tiredly attending everyone's wedding in the dream, watching them happily exchange rings and kisses with the team leader, and her tears almost ran out.
"It looks like you all didn't sleep well." Ask sat on the chair next to him and took out a slender wine can and cup from under the table. "Although minors cannot drink, I think you will feel better if you take a sip."
"What does it matter if I'm underage? I drink a lot in the Thieves Guild." Mia immediately grabbed the can and poured herself a glass skillfully. She sniffed it and said, "Aged whiskey. Where did you get it from?"
"In the warehouse," said Ask.
"Hehe." Xiaomia took a sip and her face immediately turned red.
"That's enough. Don't drink any more." Ask took the wine bottle from her.
Even if she was mentally eroded by the abyss, a sip of wine was enough to relieve the mental pressure - after all, Mia was not an adult and lacked the corresponding self-control.
"Give it back to me!" Mia rushed into his arms and tried to reach the wine can by clinging to his shoulders. Ask held the wine can high in his hand, so Mia could only cling to his body and rub against it...
"Mia!" Mier was immediately angry and stepped forward to pull her down. As a result, Mia just turned her head and couldn't help burping, which made Mier pinch her nose quickly.
"Aske, are we going to stay here any longer?" she asked uncomfortably.
"Of course, we are in the abyss." Ask replied, "The safest plan is, of course, to wait for rescue in this research institute, or wait until Mia completely masters the Ripple Sword."
"Wait until Mia masters the Ripple Sword?" Mier looked at the drunk Mia beside her with a smile, "Can she do it?"
"I believe Mia has an outstanding talent in this area." Ask replied, "Perhaps you can observe the future and see if my judgment is correct."
"Okay." Mier began to observe the future. After a while, she suddenly found some strange clues.
"Hey, Ask, something is wrong." The half-elf girl said vigilantly, "In the next few days, the spiritual erosion from the abyss will increase sharply..."
"That's because of the coating." A mechanical electronic voice sounded at the door. The synthetic man Cape had walked into the room without knowing when. "When this research institute was built, a coating was applied on the outside to prevent abyss erosion."
"However, after more than 1,700 years of natural aging, these coatings have now completely decomposed, so you will still suffer from the spiritual erosion of the abyss in the institute... Even more unfortunately, the abyss tide has entered its rising period. In the next half month, the abyss erosion will gradually increase until it reaches its peak."
