The speech bubble contained a line of standard Terran text: Humph!

As she stared, Talulah heard Li Lin's deafening roar, which made her involuntarily lean back.

"You can hear me?" Li Lin looked at Talulah and Lyudmila, who were covering their ears, with surprise, and casually popped the bubble above their heads.

As the bubbles burst, the sounds around them returned to silence.

“There’s no sound now.” The immortal patted Li Lin’s head curiously, taking the opportunity to ruffle his hair into a ball. “It seems only you can do this.”

"Oh ho ho ho, I didn't expect I to actually be a little genius, hehe."

Miss Nian popped the bubble of disgusting speech and waved to Talulah and Lyudmila, gesturing for them to sit together.

"In any case, we now have a fixed meeting place that spans the world, and I think you should understand the profound meaning behind it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Talulah's eyes lit up.

She wasn't stupid; she knew very well what kind of impact this cross-world gathering could have.

Living in the Ark of Tomorrow world, they are able to continuously obtain advanced technology and ideas from the cult world, while Li Lin and Nian, who are in the cult world, are also able to obtain Originium energy support from the Ark of Tomorrow world. This close relationship of mutual exchange and connection undoubtedly links them together in a more secretive way.

WINWIN, a win-win situation.

Thinking of this, Talulah glanced at Lyudmila, just as the Kingslayer cast a similar look at her.

Now they are comrades-in-arms keeping the same secret, a relationship that even Alina cannot surpass.

“Besides that, I suggest we call each other by code names, because there’s no guarantee this guy won’t bring in new people.” Nian sighed; she seemed to have sighed more often since she arrived at Mansu than in the previous thousand years.

Talulah nodded. No matter how this secret gathering develops in the future, at least the three of them come from the same world and are born with the mark of being of the same kind.

“Then I’ll still call myself the Kingslayer,” Lyudmila said first, seemingly still haunted by the experience of Li Lin giving her the nickname.

The young man chuckled, "My title here is 'Heavenly Craftsman,' which suits me quite well."

Talulah glanced at the dazed Li Lin, then cleared her throat hesitantly: "What do you guys think of the codename 'Fighter'?"

“Fighter…” Nian seemed to have a feeling, as if she remembered Talulah’s arduous past leading the Reunion Movement. “It’s quite fitting for you, Miss Fighter.”

"Now we can begin our discussion." Realizing she was overstepping her bounds, Nian walked over and kicked Li Lin in the butt, pulling him up from the ground, and briefly recounted the results of their discussion.

"An unlimited chat group, huh? Speaking of that, I'm wide awake now." Li Lin suddenly perked up. "That's right, my codename is Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun..."

“Fusheng…what?” Nian bit her tongue.

“Fu Sheng Xuan Huang… nothing.” Li Lin wanted to speak quickly to show off his eloquence, but he bit his tongue. Holding a grudge, Li Lin immediately forgot about it. “Damn it, then let’s change it to Fool.”

"If I remember correctly, 'Fool' seems to be a euphemism for moth in the 'Clockwork' system," Nian muttered sinisterly from the side. "By the way, are you obsessed with the woodlands?"

"Tsk."

Li Lin clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction, but since Si Chen was involved, he couldn't say anything. After a while, he came up with a new code name: "Hello, I am Feng Bujue."

"The one before has forgotten; the one after is one who is unaware, fearless, and indifferent to life and death, neither god nor ghost, but a madman."

Finally, at everyone's insistence, Li Lin was forced to abandon the references to Thriller Paradise and Lord of Mysteries, and adopted the simple and unpretentious Key Hunter as his codename.

"And what should we call this secret gathering? I suggest 'Infinite Anime Chat Group'." Li Lin was enthusiastic about naming everything new.

"Get out of here, anime!" Talulah shouted, taking a deep breath.

"Then Hell's Frontline?" Li Lin still hadn't given up on using the horror park reference.

"Thanks for the invitation. It's neither hell nor a front line," Lyudmila said lazily from the side.

"Is the Tarot Club any good?" Li Lin shouted in despair.

Miss Nian said thoughtfully, "Although I don't know what kind of joke you're making, I don't think it'll work."

"Chaldea, the organization that safeguards human rights?"

"What is human reason? There are too many words with unclear meanings."

"This won't do, that won't do! What should we call it?" Li Lin plopped down on the ground and threw a tantrum.

“How about the Hand of Reconstruction?” Nian suddenly asked.

"It doesn't feel as good as Genshin Impact... in terms of graphics."

Apart from Li Lin, who was making sarcastic remarks about the overused joke, everyone else thought the name was quite good.

Thus, the Secret Order Reshaping Hand, with only four core members at present, was established, and after they finished doing these things, the surrounding cobalt blue light began to gradually fade.

That was a sign that the dream was about to end, and Li Lin's consciousness would be withdrawn from the dream.

“The dream will end soon, and I’m afraid we won’t be able to have a long conversation.” Nian’s expression was somewhat regretful, after all, Li Lin had lingered in the woods for a while earlier. “First, we need to set a time for the next gathering, let’s do it this Sunday. You can also go back and compare the time difference between Terra and the waking world.”

Talulah and Lyudmila nodded.

“But there’s something I want to give you.” Talulah took a breath and walked confidently to Li Lin, taking out a black bracelet from her pocket that radiated a multifaceted crystalline texture.

Even after Kosiché's consciousness completely vanished, the remains he left behind still displayed a unique shape, half withered and half lush. The body itself, blessed by the transformation ritual for a long time, was no less than a level 3 legendary artifact.

All of these remains were transferred to Rhodes Island. Under the doctor's supervision, the treatment of Oripathy made great strides. At least, infected individuals could walk safely in the sunlight after wearing this bracelet, no longer afraid of the strange looks from others, and no longer worried about infecting others.

As Li Lin's exclusive item, this specially made bracelet can even function as a staff, allowing him to unleash invisible magic.

After receiving the bracelet from Talulah, a vast starlight rose once again from the dark green table in front of Li Lin, and everything around him quickly became blurry and illusory. The magnificent temple ruins and everyone else shattered and dissipated.

Of course, in the eyes of others, they were swallowed up by the colorless starlight rising from Li Lin's palm.

......

Arknights World, Terra, Chernobog.

Talulah opened her eyes and immediately looked at the clock hanging on the wall. To her disbelief, the hands of the clock seemed to have not changed at all. Night had not yet fully fallen, and the afterglow of the setting sun was still struggling on the horizon. The two moons in the sky were slowly rising.

"Is it a dream?"

Talulah reached into her pocket, but her fingertips didn't feel the familiar touch. She remembered handing the bracelet to her mentor herself.

The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out outside, growing louder as they approached.

Snapped.

The door was pushed open, and Lyudmila, the regicide, stood outside, staring intently at him.

"A fighter?"

"The regicide."

Lyudmila's eyes drooped slightly, while Talulah's lips curved into a smile.

......

The high places of Mansu are a training ground.

In this world full of flames, hammers, and light, the heat of the year seems insignificant. Moreover, the forging ground itself represents the concept of "forging" in the world. All forging techniques in the world are displayed in the forging ground, which is no less than a sacred place for the year.

The vastness of a thousand years of life cannot compare to the splendor of these few short days.

So when Si Chen granted her a place in the training ground, Nian was genuinely happy. Here, she tempered herself every moment, making herself stronger and more perfect.

The year raised her hand to cover her eyes, then peered through her fingers into the distance, where a vast expanse of light and flame filled her pupils.

Did Sichen Bai Ri Forge and its named beings not realize their disappearance, or did they notice but choose not to care? In any case, since they did not react, it means there is no major problem.

Nian sighed again, unconsciously. As an immortal granted special permission to live in the Mansu, she had undoubtedly become a thorn in the side of other immortals, and even those with names.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

This is also a form of tempering.

......

"Yay! It's a treasure chest!"

Li Lin suddenly woke up from his bed with a start.

55. In order to save Vienna, Li Lin decides to become an idol.

"It turned out to be a dream."

Li Lin had just dreamt that Dickens' novels were incredibly popular and he was being showered with donations by a group of people. So he had no choice but to step forward and become a city icon in Vienna, making a fortune from then on.

This is a terrifying plot that even science fiction writers wouldn't easily adopt.

When Li Lin woke up, he found that he had a bracelet on his wrist.

"Xiao Ai?" Li Lin asked in a low voice, but the bracelet naturally did not respond.

Only then did Li Lin, whose head was still foggy, remember that this was the bracelet that Talulah had given him the night before. After leaving the mansion, the bracelet had automatically appeared on his wrist.

New words flow from the perspective of data.

【Bracelet "02"】

Sexual characteristics: Moth

Its touch is like the branches of ivy, always withering, always sprouting new green.

[Feature: Wearing this bracelet slightly reduces the spiritual energy consumption when releasing secret techniques!]

As a research product of the remains of an immortal being, it naturally also carries some characteristics of the remains of the "immortal black snake." It is these special effects that ensure the normal lives of the infected.

However, Li Lin is not the same as the Oripathy infected in the Arknights world. Although their symptoms share the same name, their characteristics are quite different—Li Lin's disease is so rare that it can be named after him.
