The orange cat squatted at the corner of the table, quietly watching the middle-aged man feasting.
The other party's appearance is somewhat funny—
He clearly exudes a "powerful", "not to be messed with", and "majestic" aura, but when he eats noodles, he shows an expression of extreme enjoyment.
"Hahaha, it's delicious. I think next time I'll soak a bag of noodles." The middle-aged man said while eating.
He quickly finished his noodles, excitedly picked up the virtual device, and was about to enter the game again—
Suddenly, the expression on his face became serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Why are you here again?"
The orange cat followed the eyes of the middle-aged man.
A long metal pipe appeared in the air, and the end of the pipe unfolded in front of the middle-aged man, turning into a screen of light.
Many strangely shaped characters appeared on the light screen.
The middle-aged man read it, pulled out a portable disc, and began to operate on those words.
After a while.
The metal pipe retracted into the void and disappeared.
The middle-aged man showed a look of relief, and murmured in a low voice: "Finally, it's going well... I hope they move faster, then my task will be completed."
After he finished speaking, he put on the virtual device and started playing the game.
Time passed slowly.
The middle-aged man had a great time.
The orange cat thought for a while, then stopped reading.
It quietly walked out of the cave, swept to a hidden place outside the mountains, and got into a white mist.
…
coastal.
Ms. Jiwu listened to the narration of the orange cat, but did not make a sound for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, she said softly: "The dragon used the technique of parallel worlds to help the dusty world complete that matter, in exchange for the protection of the entire dusty world..."
"Meow?" the orange cat asked puzzled.
"—It was injured and needs a safe place to recuperate." Ms. Jiwu said.
"Meow." The orange cat let out a sigh.
"Yes, it seems that not only did we fail to protect it, but now even the entire dusty world is facing a huge problem-I want to hold a dusty meeting immediately." Ms. Jiwu said.
A series of obscure incantations came out of her mouth.
I saw countless flickering lights and shadows appearing in the sky, quickly constructing a magnificent and grand picture scroll on the coast.
A ghost appeared on the scroll.
The orange cat stared intently at the scroll, but could only see the moment when the spirits appeared. When it wanted to continue to see the scene on the scroll clearly, the whole scroll became blurred, making it impossible to distinguish anything.
"This is a dusty map, and only the true masters of the dusty world can clearly see what's on it." Ms. Jiwu said with a smile.
She walked into the picture scroll and disappeared from the orange cat.
Half an hour passed.
Only then did Ms. Jiwu come out again.
This time, there were countless spirits floating behind her.
Each spirit turned into a unique and weird rune, following her closely.
"Gu Qingshan, you just said that the dragon was hit by your mysterious technique 'see you again'?" Ms. Jiwu asked.
"Meow." The orange cat replied.
A thick male voice sounded from a certain rune: "That technique, I remember that I bestowed it on you not long after you practiced the sacrificial dance."
"Meow." The orange cat held its paws and bowed respectfully.
"You're welcome, you've helped us a lot this time." The thick male voice said.
Ms. Jiwu said: "Then let's go together now, everyone has to make a move, lest the dragon notice something wrong."
All the spirits responded in unison.
"You come too." Ms. Jiwu picked up the orange cat.
She stepped into the void in one step, and reached the cave among the mountains in the next step.
"Leave all the hidden matters to me."
The voice of a spirit sounded from the rune.
The next moment.
Gu Qingshan found himself still being hugged by Ms. Jiwu, but he could no longer see her, let alone the spirits behind her.
"let's go."
Ms. Jiwu went straight into the cave and came to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man seemed unaware, still playing virtual games.
All the spirits flew out from behind Ms. Jiwu, surrounded the middle-aged man, and began to divide the work.
"Leave the space to me to shield."
"I'm responsible for cutting off the time."
"The power of cause and effect and mystery is guided by me."
"I'm here to monitor the void."
"Let me see the way of the drops in the chaos."
"The barrier has been opened."
"The erosion of consciousness is complete."
"See clearly, the power of 'see you again' did hit him—now you can ask him a question, and he won't remember anything afterwards."
"let's start."
Ms. Jiwu said: "Very well, then I'm going to ask."
She stared at the middle-aged man and said softly, "What is your mission?"
in an instant—
All spirits together!
Time and space, cause and effect, all techniques, and all methods are all at a standstill.
The middle-aged man looked dazed for a while, and muttered: "My mission? Of course, my mission is to temporarily replace that guy, and then find and lock the real location of the dusty world."
After he said this, everything around him suddenly returned to normal.
Everything is as if it never happened.
The middle-aged man continued to play his virtual game without remembering what he had said.
Ms. Jiwu stood on the spot and said, "The guy with the most knowledge among us, you should check his race first."
A rune flew out, circled around the middle-aged man, and flew back again.
"A very rare race." The voice of a spirit came from the rune.
"What is it?" Ms. Jiwu asked.
"—Dragon Eater." The spirit said.
"It's such a disgusting race. It's completely created to target the dragon race. I'm afraid it has no other talents." Another spirit said disgustedly.
"It's dangerous!" Ms. Jiwu touched the orange cat in her hand, and said softly: "Gu Qingshan, although you are a dragon, you are a creation of the world and the highest horcrux of a civilization, otherwise—"
"Meow?"
"You've already been eaten by it."
"… Meow."
Another spirit said: "It seems that our dusty world seems to be targeted."
Ms. Jiwu said: "The best way now is to give them a wrong coordinate, and then use this time to follow the clues to find out the existence behind him."
"To do this, I'm afraid it's very difficult... It needs a completely suitable environment, penetrate into his soul bit by bit, put his soul into an illusion, and then replace it with our people." Another Lingdao.
"Everyone, I found that his soul has a guardian mechanism, and it is aimed at us spirits." The spirit said at the beginning.
"What's the meaning?"
"Once we, the strongest spirits, make a move, his guardian mechanism will activate and convey the matter to the high-dimensional place behind him."
"That's it... It seems that we need a fairly powerful ceremony, and a stranger who is unknown to the other party to complete this matter."
The spirits talked a lot.
Ms. Jiwu suddenly said: "Gu Qingshan is not a person in the dusty world, and he has activated the sacrifice of death fight on him, he is the most suitable candidate."
All souls are quiet.
"That's right... he was indeed an accident."
"He can."
"That's it."
All spirits said.
"This guy pretending to be a dragon god will come to our sinful Gensokyo soon. We can make arrangements in Gensokyo to confuse and capture his soul," another spirit said.
The orange cat's expression moved.
He had heard the voice of this spirit, and it was the spirit that received him and Laura in Guilt Fantasy Township.
—The girl with colorful long hair and wearing a miniskirt.
Funeral!
Unexpectedly, she turned out to be one of the masters of the dusty world.
But when I think about it carefully, she is definitely not an ordinary person who can make the decision to invite people into Guilty Fantasy Township and preside over the wrestling.
"Then it's settled, we will finish this matter in the sinful Fantasy Township." Ms. Jiwu said.
"Everyone, prepare immediately! The war is about to begin!" she yelled.
hum—
Behind her, all the spirits scattered with a bang, and disappeared into the void one after another.
Ms. Jiwu also took a step and left the cave in an instant.
She returned to the shore again.
"Gu Qingshan, I'm sorry, I got you involved." Ms. Jiwu said.
"I have received a lot of kindness from you and the dusty world, and I should help, but unfortunately I don't know how to save the six reincarnations." Gu Qingshan said with a wry smile.
Ms. Jiwu nodded, and said: "I brought you into this matter to make the whole dusty world owe you a favor... After this matter is over, maybe we can concentrate all our strengths to reproduce a story for you. Parallel world art."
"Really?" Gu Qingshan cheered up immediately.
"Really, by concentrating the power of all of us, we can reproduce the spells that have been issued in the dusty world - even the spells of parallel worlds are no exception." Ms. Jiwu said.
"Ma'am, please tell me more information, I will definitely finish the next thing." Gu Qingshan said.
Lady Jiwu chanted a series of obscure spells.
Water ripples suddenly appeared on Gu Qingshan's body.
A line of scarlet characters quickly appeared:
"You will be able to hear the secrets of the dusty world, and those powerful spirits will not mind this, let alone hold grudges and kill you."
Sure enough, Ms. Jiwu said:
"When you devote yourself to the event of saving the dusty world and are recognized by the spirits—it doesn't matter if you know our secret."
"I'm all ears." Gu Qingshan said.
Ms. Jiwu said: "Listen well, this is a hunt... Someone is hunting us, the masters of the dusty world."
Gu Qingshan was puzzled and said: "I remember that what was aimed at the dusty world at the beginning should be Doomsday—the world systems destroyed by the doomsday gathered together to form the dusty world."
"Why did Doomsday destroy those world systems?" Ms. Jiwu asked.
Gu Qingshan paused.
Ms. Jiwu continued: "In fact, the doomsday is targeting us because we have passed through the passage of chaos and reached the void. This is not allowed."
"That's why Chaos is attacking us."
