Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 381: Same Heart, Different Paths (Fifty-Two)

If Bing Haoqi were asked to simply describe her mood in recent days, she would definitely say that it was like riding a roller coaster.

Not long ago, she had to face various pursuits and recruitments. In the past two days, the situation suddenly improved. All the people who shouldn't be there disappeared, making her think that it was just a flash in the pan.

The White Dove Faction confessed to deliberately manipulating the two major associations to fight each other and disrupt the order of the city. Under the leadership of the Northern Faction's tomb keeper, all the transformation cards in the city were recovered, and it was decided to destroy them before the alien "envoys" arrived in the city.

The official forum account of the City Hall released a documentary in which the mayor and the deputy mayor, who had never shown their true face, appeared at the same time, telling the story of the city's blueprint that had been hidden for 500 years, and the reason why successive mayors had unanimously decided not to make the blueprint public - too fast development could easily cause irreversible damage to the ecological environment inside and around the city, so they were looking for a way of development that could coexist harmoniously with nature. Of course, anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were still hiding something, but after all, they were all playing political games, so it was normal for them to hide some lines, and no one cared.

According to the testimony of the White Doves, today is the second to last day before the aliens arrive.

An unexpected guest showed up at the Northern Tomb Keepers' camp.

"This is not a place that ordinary people can enter. Why are you here?" Fu Cangzhao recognized the person's identity with just a glance from a distance.

Ji Liangqi waved a special card at her and said calmly, "I am not an ordinary person."

That card is a temporary pass issued by the Northern Faction. Getting it means you've been invited.

That's right. After all, Ji Liangqi was the original designer of the "Nun" series of transformation cards. The Northern Faction decided to destroy the cards in the next two days, and she should have been informed.

Not long after, Fu Cangzhao, Bing Haoqi and Ji Liangqi stared at the pile of cards.

"Is this their method of unified destruction?" Ji Liangqi turned his head stiffly, his facial muscles twitching.

"There is actually a card underneath that is used to destroy a large number of cards, but the presentation form is a bit rough, quite in the Northern style." Fu Cangzhao tried hard to explain for the Northern tomb keeper, but judging from her expression, her mood was not much better.

Xiao Ling was still in charge of connecting with them. Seeing that they didn't seem to believe in this method of destruction, he quickly advised them, "Hey, we have always done it this way. Every year, there are a lot of discarded military cards that need to be destroyed. They are all handed over to us. If you really can't stand it, just go and have a rest..."

Looking at the cards piled up into a small mountain in front of him and being destroyed, Ji Liangqi suddenly felt dazed.

She felt as if she had returned to several years ago, to the same place, the same scene, but what was burned in the fire were not the cards, but the bodies of those who died in the battle.

She looked down and saw that the blood on her hands had dried, but the fresh blood was spreading from her hands to the ground, dyeing the land beneath her feet black and red.

She looked up and saw a group of familiar faces looking at her with fear on their faces, shouting something.

Resurrection?

Kill her?

...“Endless loop”?

Underfoot was a barren expanse of red soil, on which no grass grew, except for those plants without roots. They sprouted, branched out, and grew wildly, expanding as the red soil spread.

The white shadow of a rootless tree appeared in the air, and with every drop of dew that fell from its leaves, the red soil transformation accelerated.

In reality, the endless loop suddenly appeared.

"Ji Liangxi? What's wrong with you?" Bing Haoqi was the first to feel the familiar breath and hurried to check on Ji Liangxi's condition.

Fu Cangzhao also discovered something unusual, and a wisp of his spiritual consciousness quietly penetrated into Ji Liangqi's body to check his physical condition.

The spiritual consciousness returned after wandering around in Ji Liangqi's body, bringing some information.

"Her consciousness seems to be trapped in some kind of nightmare," Fu Cangzhao frowned, with some worry in his eyes, "Before this, she had fought nightmares many times... Why didn't I find out earlier? Obviously at that time she had..."

Bing Haoqi suddenly turned Fu Cangzhao's head forcefully and pretended to bite her lips fiercely.

"What are you doing?" She felt pain, and the self-blame in her eyes was replaced by resentment.

"Of course, it's to help you change your mood," Bing Haoqi smiled mischievously, pinching Fu Cangzhao's cheeks with both hands, rubbing the soft flesh in her hands with her fingers in circles, "I know everything you are thinking about."

Fu Cangzhao turned his head and looked at Ji Liangqi in a daze.

On the first day they met at the Dongyu Office, Fu Cangzhao had already seen Ji Liangqi being troubled by a nightmare, but she just thought that he was having an ordinary nightmare and did not use her spiritual sense to investigate the specific situation.

In a sense, it was she who created the current situation.

She took the initiative to hold Ji Liangqi's hands, just like every time she acted coquettishly and asked for a kiss, her dark eyes looked at the other's gray-green eyes pleadingly, and her voice sounded like singing: "I'm back, you have to come back too."

I'm back, you have to come back too...

The singing sounded in the camp of the northern tomb keepers, floated into the air, and also floated towards the endless wheat fields in Ji Liangqi's dream.

The light blue sky and the golden wheat field were clearly separated. Fu Cangzhao walked through the wheat field and saw two figures in the distance. One was relatively tall and strong, and the other was relatively slender, but both of them had such upright postures.

His spiritual consciousness was suddenly moved, and he looked around and saw a mother and daughter.

The mother's dress was somewhat similar to Chen Chao's in his early years. The daughter curled up obediently in her mother's arms and slept soundly.

Fu Cangzhao recognized that the daughter was An Cuo.

By chance, Ancuo once mentioned family matters to her, and her mother happened to be named Su Sheng. Just by coincidence of the same name, they had a subtle connection with the goddess Su Sheng, so it was no wonder that she appeared in Ji Liangqi's spiritual world at this time.

Fu Cangzhao walked in the wheat field for a long time, but he still couldn't see the two people who were confronting each other in the distance. Bored, he took a closer look at the wheat field under his feet, and an absurd idea came to his mind: What if these wheats are not "wheat" but something else?

When I looked up again, the scene suddenly changed.

The sky was burned red by the setting sun, and a crack appeared somewhere at some point. The crack grew larger and larger, forming a dark gap. Through the gap, one could vaguely see the twinkling of stars, and strands of star power fell from the gap and quietly floated into Fu Cangzhao's body.

"The power of the stars?" Fu Cangzhao was puzzled. "I clearly remember that this was triggered when I activated 'Driving by the Stars and the Moon'..."

Is this an ability she already has?

Ji Liangqi and Su Sheng seemed to have noticed no sign of this uninvited guest.

Su Sheng didn't know what he said to Ji Liangqi, and then his body floated up from the ground, flying higher and higher, like the legendary Nuwa...
