Chapter 219 The Forgotten Ruins
After Xiaoyuan and Xuyan arrived at the camp, they found an open space. Xiaoyuan used magic power to condense a large tent.
The two walked into the tent, took off their clothes that were damaged due to the battle and destroyed them, then took out the same clothes they had worn before and put them on.
Xiao Yuan's black-framed glasses were broken when he was hit by the water curtain, so Xiao Yuan used his own ability to condense a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Seeing this, Xu Yan asked in confusion: "Xiao Yuan, why don't you wear black-framed glasses?"
"Because we don't have to fight, gold-rimmed glasses make me more elegant." Xiao Yuan put on his gold-rimmed glasses, lifted the hair beside his ears, and replied.
Hearing this, Xu Yan made a comparison in his mind. Xiao Yuan wearing gold-rimmed glasses looked less girlish and more mature and noble than Xiao Yuan wearing black-framed glasses. She indeed looked more elegant.
"Okay. Xiao Yuan, do you know what that snake-like monster was just now? I'm afraid that guy's strength exceeds the Saint level?" Xu Yan asked, recalling the scene of the battle with Chi just now.
Xiao Yuan shared the information about Chi that he had discovered: "His name is Chi, his magic power is at the pseudo-god level, and he also has partial authority over water and wood in this world. Ordinary gods may not be his match."
Before, I just went straight in without thinking too much. Xiao Yuan was also tied up by Chi's tentacles later, and he explored while he was talking, so he didn't tell others.
Hearing this, Xu Yan showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and said sarcastically, "No wonder he is so perverted. He hit us so hard that we couldn't fight back."
Xiao Yuan crossed his arms and said, "According to my deduction, Chi is not a creature originally from this world. The few strange creatures in armor that I met before also do not belong to this world."
Hearing this, Xu Yan thought of the Abyss Mage, Apostle, Chanter and Deep Sin Immersed Person he had met before, and also thought of what Chi said, and suddenly his mind was opened.
Xu Yan's eyes sparkled, and he looked like he was the smartest person. He said, "Xiao Yuan, you mean that the appearance of these guys is related to the system in Xue Li's body, right?"
Xiao Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. If my inference is correct, they should be the creation of that system."
Hearing this, Xu Yan became a little confused again and said, "If that's the case, then why let Xue Li face an enemy he can't defeat?"
Xiao Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't understand this either. Maybe his system wants him to become stronger, so it created such a strong enemy to stimulate him."
In fact, it is very similar to Xiaoyuan’s guess.
Xue Li's system was created by a powerful man to relieve his boredom. In order to increase the fun, he set the system's role to be random.
And Xue Li happened to draw Zhongli's template. He didn't need to fight or kill. He could just drink tea, listen to music, walk around with his bird, and keep accounts, and his strength would increase rapidly.
Now the Verves world is in a relatively peaceful stage, and Xue Li is living a peaceful and stable life. This made the powerful man feel a little bored, so he added a little spice to the Verves world.
This relic, the abyss and the demons are part of it. The purpose is to make this world lively and make Xue Li feel a sense of crisis and no longer be so indifferent.
Xu Yan thought of the system article she had read before, and suddenly a bold idea popped up in her mind. She said, "Xiao Yuan, do you think Xue Li's system wants to erase his consciousness and take over his body after he becomes stronger?"
Xiao Yuan thought about it and said, "Indeed, there is such a possibility. If the system wants to exert its own strength, it does need the help of a strong body."
"Tsk tsk tsk, if that's true, Xue Li is really pitiful, working for others in vain." Xu Yan sighed.
"That's not necessarily true. When the host grows up, there will be risks if he wants to take over the host's body. Who knows who will swallow whom by then." Xiao Yuan said.
Hearing this, Xu Yan nodded and said, "That's true. Forget it, let's not talk about his business. What does his business have to do with us? Fortunately, there is another me, otherwise the two of us would have experienced death today."
In fact, even if Xu Yuan didn't take action, Xiao Yuan and Xu Yan wouldn't die, they both had backup plans. Xiao Yuan was originally Xu Yuan's system, if her body was destroyed, she could directly return to Xu Yuan's soul.
Xu Yan left a drop of his own blood in Xu Yuan's new portable space. As long as that drop of blood is there, even if her body turns into dust and dissipates between heaven and earth, she can be resurrected through that drop of blood.
"Yeah, luckily Xiao Yuan is here..." Having said this, Xiao Yuan suddenly paused, realizing that something was missing. He looked around and recalled the people he saw when he passed by the camp.
It’s good that there is no Xu Yuan.
Seeing Xiao Yuan like this, Xu Yan asked, "Xiao Yuan, what are you looking for?"
Xiao Yuan covered her forehead, somewhat afraid to admit that they seemed to have forgotten Xu Yuan. She took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Yuan, and said seriously: "We forgot someone."
Hearing this, Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that they had forgotten about Xu Yuan.
After realizing what was happening, Xu Yan cursed and said, "WC! We forgot about the other me!"
"Let's go, it's time to bring her back." Xiao Yuan said as he walked out of the tent.
According to her perception, Xu Yuan was not far away from them and it would only take a few minutes to walk there.
Moreover, given Xu Yuan's current condition, Xiao Yuan knew where Xu Yuan would be even without sensing her.
Xu Yuan is very obedient now. Xiao Yuan told her to wait there, so she waited there. So she is still in the ruins. But now it can't be called ruins, she is at the bottom of the lake.
Xiaoyuan and Xuyan left the camp and walked towards the lake.
As they walked along the road, Xu Yan complained, "Didn't those guys notice that one person was missing in all this time?"
Xiao Yuan comforted her, "Okay, Xiao Yan, stop complaining. You know Xiao Yuan's current situation. Even if they find out, there's nothing they can do."
Hearing this, Xu Yan nodded and said, "That's true. If the others didn't notice that the other me was gone, it wouldn't matter, but those people from the association didn't notice that she was gone, which made me very disappointed in them."
In fact, although Chi did not kill everyone inside after breaking the Yuzhang shield, they were all injured to some extent.
Xia, Afra and Carol were also seriously injured and were busy with treatment. In addition, Chen Kongyuan was seriously injured, so the three of them focused their attention on him, so they didn't notice that one person was missing.
Xiao Yuan said sympathetically, "Everyone is injured, Changsheng is seriously injured, and they all have things to do, so it's understandable that they didn't notice one person missing. Xiao Yan, there's no need to be so resentful towards them."
At this point, Xiao Yuan took out a piece of strawberry cake and handed it to Xu Yan, then said, "You'll feel better after eating it."
