In the dark and gloomy corridor, Lulunaka held Marina's hand and walked forward with her lantern.
In the darkness, only her lantern had a little bit of warm light — if the green flame in her lantern didn't make one's hair stand on end.
Lulunaka had become Marina's guide, bringing her, who had lost her eyes, to the destination.
When they were halfway there, both of them felt a strange tremor.
First, the tremors came from beneath their feet, making them feel like an earthquake. Then, the tremors spread to their surroundings, and the walls of the corridor were covered in mottled debris. Finally, the tremors came from above, and the ceiling above them looked like it was about to collapse.
Whether it was Lulunaka or Marina, they didn't show any signs of surprise or panic during the process of the tremor. After the surroundings quieted down, Lulunaka made a sound, as if she was in deep thought.
"Hmm … … Where is that thing going?
Normally, it would stay underground, but it's rushing up to the surface. "
Lulunaka's strange feeling didn't just come from this, but also from the thing that was rushing up from the ground, which gave her a very familiar feeling. Although she was engulfed by the huge presence of that thing, for her, it wasn't difficult to feel that small and hard "foreign object" in that huge presence.
For Lulunaka, the following action was a little difficult to choose between two options.
"What should I do … … No matter which side it is, it seems like an interesting development, but I can't split myself now." Lulunaka said to herself in distress.
Actually, it wasn't difficult to split herself, but for her to pick up a piece of trash that had been thrown away in the past, it was a little difficult.
Although there was also the option of using magic to create a clone, it would be meaningless to do so because the one standing there wasn't a real existence, and such a non-real existence wouldn't feel as real.
Lulunaka didn't like this kind of illusory feeling. For her, a mage who liked to use a clone to run around was like a drug addict who ate hallucinogenic grass. They were people who couldn't see reality clearly.
Lulunaka, who was thinking about what to do, stopped to think and almost forgot that she was holding someone's hand.
When she turned her gaze and saw Marina, she had an idea.
"Miss Marina, do you want to find your eyes, or do you want to meet an interesting person?"
"My eyes are no longer important." Marina said, "They are something that can be abandoned."
Hearing Marina's answer, Lulunaka made a thoughtful sound. "Oh … … is that so?" Lulunaka squinted her eyes and stared at Marina's empty eyes for a while.
"It seems like I'm thinking too much, I don't have to be a good person." she said to Marina.
Marina shook her head, "You know it, but you pretend you don't know it..
"Being omniscient and omnipotent isn't interesting at all, didn't you already have such an experience?"
Lulunaka laughed, "Although you can't be considered omniscient and omnipotent, it's just that your eyes are damaged and have a strange illusion."
Marina didn't respond to Lulunaka's teasing, she just kept silent.
"Since it's not necessary to find your eyes, can you at least make me less worried and feel at ease?"
Marina didn't respond immediately, and looking at her eyes, it was impossible to tell what she was thinking because she had no eyes.
"If that's what you want."
Finally, Marina gave an answer, "I'll go and meet that interesting person … … I already know who he is."
Lulunaka shrugged, "You, ah, don't rely too much on what you see, you'll become a useless person."
Having said that, Lulunaka didn't force Marina to do so.
"Then go and meet that person, if he's not dead."
Lulunaka let go of Marina's hand. "Then, can you walk out of this damned place by yourself?" she asked.
Marina was silent, a faint blue light emitting from her empty black eye sockets, gradually brightening.
"I'll return to the surface."
After Lurunaka and Marina separated, in the other half of the space, Jessica, who was carrying Zendina on her back, left the way they came.
There was no need to stay in the place where only the remains of creatures were left. After carrying the battered Zendina on her back, Jessica hesitated for a moment before finally walking to the altar where the blue rubik's cube was placed. She took the rubik's cube down and hung it on her waist.
In this shattered space, this was the only thing that was still intact. However, its blue light reminded her of the hell that was swept by the light, and the goosebumps on her back didn't go away.
"I'm sorry, Captain. I don't think you'll die in this place … …" Jessica carried Zendina on her back and walked forward, muttering to Junia, "Compared to you, who won't die even if you fall into the mouth of a flying dragon, there's a little girl who saved me who seems to need more help … …"
She was naturally talking about Zendina on her back.
Dina was now unconscious. The only thing that reassured Jessica was that Dina was still breathing. That was the only thing that made Jessica feel at ease.
Apart from breathing, there weren't many places on Zendina's body that were in good condition.
Large areas of her body were burned, and the blood vessels under her skin were exposed to the air, dripping with blood mixed with blue fluorescence … … If she wasn't still breathing, Jessica would have thought that the poor little girl had become a corpse.
However, Zendina was still alive. She was still breathing, and her body was very hot. The liquid left on Jessica's back was as warm as blood.
To Jessica, the child was still alive, but that was all. She might stop breathing in the next moment, and her body would turn cold.
She had to keep the child alive, but this was already a big problem for her.
"Who can tell me how to treat a child like you … …" Jessica muttered to herself, her heart occupied by worries.
Her worries didn't last long. Just as she was about to return to the underground hall where she was originally teleported, she met the person who seemed to have disappeared for a long time — Lulunaka.
"Hello, Miss Jessica. It seems that you've suffered a lot."
Lulunaka greeted the distressed Jessica with a smile, then noticed Zendina behind her. "This is really messing around."
Her eyes narrowed into a line, and Jessica, who was about to say something, felt a chill run down her spine.
The girl in front of her, who was still smiling, looked no different from usual, at least on the surface … … However, she didn't seem to have any intention of hiding her displeasure, and Jessica could feel it very directly.
"Forget it. Children are very willful creatures."
Lulunaka sighed and didn't say anything about it. "It seems that we've got everything. Let's go back to the surface and make other plans."
