There was silence for several seconds before a dry chuckle escaped his throat.

"Oh! I never thought the LCO's chief librarian would stoop to such a low point. It's truly ridiculous!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Lingcai could no longer hold back and rushed forward, pointing the tip of her gun at Shinagasa Fuko. "Tell me! Who else has come from the future?"

Shinagasa Fuko was brought back to her senses by Xiao Lingcai's shouting. She moved her gaze away from Xiandumu Aye, looked at the furious Xiao Lingcai with interest, and then returned to Ye Zuochen.

"He looks like a handsome young man, clean and tidy. I didn't expect... Tsk tsk, he turned out to be the most vicious and evil Demon King."

"Demon King?" Ye Zuochen raised his eyebrows slightly. Instead of anger, his black pupils ignited a strong interest as if he had discovered a new continent.

The person who came from the future was probably the Vampire King.

But, what does it mean to call him the most vicious and evil demon king...

I feel an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

Ye Zuochen took two steps forward and stood at the edge of the space crack that exuded an ominous aura. "Tell me who came from the future. Tell me, and I will spare your life."

Shinaga Saifuko chuckled, turned sideways, and made a "please" gesture towards the rolling darkness inside the door: "Of course I can tell you, as long as you are willing to come over."

Xiao Mengcong said, "It's really foolish to jump into the other party's trap..."

"Okay." Ye Zuochen answered decisively without any hesitation. He didn't even look back at his companions. He took a step forward and his figure plunged into the space crack where purple lightning and absolute darkness were rolling.

Immediately, he disappeared behind the door as if strolling in the garden.

Seeing this scene, the projection of Shinagasa Fukuko was stunned for a moment, and then disappeared immediately.

"Wait for me!" Xiao Lingcai was anxious and rushed towards the strange door.

boom!

Her body seemed to hit an invisible wall.

An irresistible repulsive force suddenly came, and Xiao Lingcai stumbled back several steps before she could barely stand firm: "What's going on?!"

Xiao Mengcong was a little speechless, but still explained: "To maintain the prison barrier, enormous magical power and an extraordinary amount of magical calculations are required."

"Although Mr. Nangong obtained those through the witch's contract, the scale of the barrier he can deploy is at most the size of a fortress."

"Even so, the Oma Witch cannot create a world so real that people can mistake it for reality."

"It's probably using a method similar to the nano-shikigami, with a self-reproduction system and magic calculation circuits built into the virus's size."

"If we inject all the people originally on the island with nano-shikigami, we can probably create a gigantic dream world..."

Hearing this, Guinevere stretched out her little hand, and the two nano-Shikigami that had been peeled off from the Akatsuki sisters appeared in her palm instantly.

hum!

A faint blue thread flowed from the fingertips, like the most dexterous weaver girl, quickly wrapping around the two points of light and transforming them in some way.

After a moment, the God Ancestor raised his head, his pale blue eyes sweeping over the crowd. "Meng Cong's deduction is correct. I have analyzed their Nano-Shikigami and modified the Nano-Shikigami I have. I can send two more people over as well. Making the potion is also possible, but it's too troublesome. By the time it's done, Lord Ye will probably have already dealt with it."

She shook the two modified nano-Shikigami in her hands.

"I go!"

Xiao Mengcong immediately stepped forward.

"I also need to go!"

Xiao Lingcai was not willing to be outdone and stepped forward again.

Guinevere's eyes swept across their faces, but she shook her head, her gaze passing over the Akatsuki sisters and falling on Sendumi Yuma and La Freya.

"Yuuma, Princess, would you be willing to go?"

There was no hesitation on Xiandumu Yuma's neutral yet extremely beautiful face: "I'll go."

La Folia let out a pleasant chuckle, her azure eyes gleaming with intense curiosity and excitement, like an adventurer about to embark on an unknown journey. "It's my honor, young lady. I'm really looking forward to this surprise!"

Guinevere threw the two modified nano-Shikigami in her hand towards the eyebrows of Xiandumu Yuma and La Freya respectively.

There was a flash of light, and the Nano Shikigami disappeared into it.

"Go."

Xiandu Mu Yuma was determined, and La Fulia smiled brightly. They both took steps at the same time, and their figures instantly disappeared into the space crack where purple plasma flowed and led to an unknown nightmare.

The gate behind them shook violently, and the purple lightning bit down like the sharp teeth of a giant beast, completely isolating the deep darkness.

……

The second level of the underground maze on Enlai Island.

The air was filled with the unique smell of the primitive jungle, a mixture of the humus of the soil, the dampness of the moss, the sap of the grass and trees, and the fishy smell left by some large wild beast.

Thick vines entwined the huge stone pillars like giant pythons, ferns stretched out their huge leaves in the darkness, and the wet ground was covered with fallen leaves that made a crackling sound when stepped on.

Ye Zuochen was standing on a relatively open mossy ground. Just as he was about to take a step, the space around him twisted without warning.

hum!

Xiandumu Yuma's figure was the first to solidify.

Then, La Fulia's figure became clear.

The long silver hair was like flowing moonlight, standing out in the dim maze.

La Fulia gently patted the moss-stained hem of her skirt. "An underground maze? Interesting. I heard that besides the maze itself, there's also a troublesome creature called a 'broken beast' living here."

Xiandumu Yuma's gaze fell on some invisible points in the air: "Nano Shikigami, a large number of signal sources, it seems that this island is not completely destroyed."

"There are survivors. They use nano-shikigami to weave and connect everyone's dreams together, constructing this vast dream world."

"Although it's a dream, the sensory feedback and physical laws... are almost indistinguishable from reality."

La Fulia turned her wrist, and a flintlock spirit spear with an ancient shape that looked like a work of art quietly appeared in her hand.

A faint magical glow flowed from the gun body.

The princess gracefully raised the muzzle of her gun, pointing it towards the deep corridors of the maze, and smiled brightly. "So, Ye Zuochen, are we going to fight our way through layer by layer to find the mastermind behind this? I'm actually looking forward to the taste of those 'broken beasts'."

Ye Zuochen's eyes swept over the intricate vines and dark passage ahead, and he curled his lips: "No need to go through so much trouble."

Who's interested in walking through a maze?

……

The bottom of the maze.

The air was thick and cold, smelling of old stone and dust.

An extremely huge underground space appeared before our eyes, its emptiness was so terrifying that it made people's heart skip a beat.

At the end of the space stood a pipe organ as huge as the pillars of a temple.

A sad, mournful, yet faintly sacred melody flows from the performer's fingers.

The performer's technique is obviously not very proficient, but the piety that comes from the heart makes the melody itself exude a strange and soul-stirring beauty.

A young man sat in front of the piano keys.

He was wearing a well-tailored black tuxedo, and he had a thin figure with slightly thin shoulders.

He was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a face that was almost transparently pale and delicate.

Her long eyelashes were like crow feathers, drooping, casting a faint shadow under her eyes, covering her tightly closed eyes.

His shoulder-length blond hair looked like a flowing rainbow in the dim light cast from above the organ, its luster changing with the slight sway of his body.

dong dong!

The fingers danced on the huge piano keys, lightly and focused, as if ten elves with independent lives were jumping on the black and white keys.

The music has not yet reached its final chapter.

After a chord filled with a sad lingering sound, the performance came to an abrupt end.

The footsteps sounded in the silence, neither fast nor slow.

The young man playing the music did not look back, as if he had already anticipated the visitor's arrival.

The "Oma Witch" Shinagasa Fuko appeared behind the young man. She was no longer wearing a swimsuit and a white robe, but a pure black dress that looked like mourning clothes, with the long skirt dragging on the cold stone ground.

She walked to about three steps behind the boy, lifted her skirt, and knelt on one knee respectfully.

"Sir, I'm back."

The young man slowly opened his eyes. They were a pair of indescribable eyes, crystal clear, yet seemed to hold the vicissitudes of time.

"Thank you for your hard work, Omo Witch."

Shinga Saifuko remained kneeling. "The target has arrived as invited. However, it will take some time to reach this place from the upper labyrinth..."

"That's fine. The Cult of Doom already knows everything." The young man's lips curled up slightly, tilting his head slightly. "The plan remains unchanged. Seal the 'Demon King' and his power within this eternal dreamtime woven from nothingness."

As he spoke, three figures emerged from the shadows and appeared silently behind the young man.

They were all dressed in pure white robes without any decorations, and their faces were covered with skull masks that only revealed empty eye sockets.

There was no breath revealed under the masks, like three lifeless stone statues, emitting a cold and strange sense of oppression.

Shinaga Saifuko took a deep breath, as if she wanted to add something.

Rumble——! ! !

Without any warning, a deafening thunder suddenly exploded!

The entire underground space seemed to be hit hard by an invisible giant hammer.

A huge sound wave swept over along with a terrifying vibration. The ground shook violently and the rubble from the dome fell down.

Shinaga Saifuko suddenly looked up, and all the color disappeared from his face in an instant.

The young musician's calm expression also began to crack, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Stab-! ! !

A purple bolt of lightning as thick as a giant dragon, carrying a violent aura of destruction, pierced through the thick rock dome above everyone's heads!

boom!

The hard rock was as fragile as paper in the face of the destructive lightning and evaporated in an instant.

The dazzling purple light instantly flooded the entire underground space.

Huge clouds of smoke and debris shot out in all directions.

The blinding purple light weakened slightly, and while the roar was still rumbling and echoing in the space, everyone subconsciously looked up at the huge gap that was torn open by thunder.

Outside the breach, there was no longer the dark, hard rock layer.

But...the sky!

A sky full of dark purple thunderclouds rolling like the end of the world!

The violent lightning danced in the clouds like silver snakes, making a dull roar.

Beneath the heart-pounding purple thundercloud, hovered a white and soft cloud that looked out of place.

Above the clouds, three figures stood clearly, like gods descending from heaven.

Ye Zuochen stood at the front, his black hair motionless in the turbulent airflow, his black pupils calmly overlooking the devastated scene below.

Xiandumu Yuma stood behind him on the left, her short hair blown by the air flow.

La Fulia stood at the rear right, her eyes flashing with extreme excitement. She looked at the astonished people below with curiosity, and a happy arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.

The pure white clouds carried the three of them, ignoring the barriers of space, ignoring the horrified gazes of the Doomsday Cult members below, and ignoring the huge rocks that were still collapsing at the edge of the huge wound torn by thunder. They descended to the bottom of the underground space that had been forcibly opened, as if riding on an invisible staircase.

The cloud landed lightly in front of the young musician, Shinaga Saifuko, and the three men in white robes and skull masks.

Ye Zuochen said calmly, "Vampire King, the original fourth True Ancestor experimental subject, the zeroth Matrix, why did you come here, and why are you looking for trouble with me?"

Upon hearing this, the Vampire King regained his composure and chuckled, "You truly know everything. Well, let me introduce myself first. I am the Vampire King—Zero, and also the leader of the Doomsday Cult."

La Fulia was slightly startled. "The Cult of Doom? The group that has been using the name of the Fourth True Ancestor and launching large-scale magical terrorist attacks since the distant past?"

The Vampire King closed his eyes and frankly admitted, "The Fourth True Ancestor is the most powerful True Ancestor in the world. I'm just trying to prevent people from forgetting this, but..."

He opened his eyes and looked at Ye Zuochen.

"Now, I have more important things to do. Following Cain's guidance, I set out from the distant future to stop the most evil and sinister demon king!"
