Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

Generally speaking, even if a normal person could discover this energy exchange channel, they wouldn't be able to find the location of Suo through it.

But it's quite obvious that he is not a normal person.

As the holder of the Cocoon of the End, it is not too difficult for him to transform his existence in the lower-dimensional world into energy and use it to trace back to find the coordinates of Sa.

He could even bring a pink fairy along during this process.

As for using the fact that Sa borrowed from the Cocoon of the End when constructing himself to explode the energy that the opponent used to create the rules of the Salt Snow Holy City, and thus faked his death to escape, it was just a little magic trick that he did on the spur of the moment.

He believed that Vita would really like this little magic trick.

"So, should we go find little Gretchen now?"

Alicia blinked and asked.

"Don't be in such a hurry, we haven't all arrived yet."

Shihen smiled and said.

Alicia: "Hmm?"

Isn't this a trip just for the two of them?

"When you travel to an unfamiliar place, you can't do it without a reliable guide."

He spoke softly, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He had made an appointment with Vita to be his tour guide again.

PS: Gurgle...

Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Boy: Vita and I are best friends who would risk our lives for each other.

Swah——

Before Shihen and the other person had to wait long, a gray figure appeared, though its form was slightly blurry and had a clear projection-like quality.

"It's been a long time, Miss Vita. It's true what they say, you never know where you might meet someone. It's really lucky to run into you here."

After all, we're unfamiliar with this place, and it wouldn't be good if we got lost and caused some trouble.

Shihen said in a rather enthusiastic tone.

"..."

Seeing the boy's unwavering enthusiasm, Vita paused slightly before finally offering a business-like smile. "I'm curious, why did you two insist on coming to this desolate and remote planet, Foros?"

By this time, she understood that the boy's main purpose in acting out that scene with her in the Salt Snow Holy City was to find the location of the planet So and Fros.

After all, the other party had specially created a brand new passage in the Sea of ​​Quanta for this purpose.

Well, in order to prevent the power she had already gained from being forcibly taken back, she decisively cut off contact with the other party when she reduced the amount of assistance she received, thus taking the first step in her rebellion.

Based on Vita's understanding of Sa, this behavior would undoubtedly greatly anger the god.

After all, in the eyes of the other party, even if she was ultimately defeated by Fu Hua and the others, she should have fought to the last moment and returned all the intelligence and power before her defeat.

In Suo's view, cutting off contact in advance undoubtedly made her a traitor, and naturally she could no longer return to Foros through the previous channels.

The reason she can appear here as a projection is thanks to the shortcut the boy has just built.

"No, Foros can hardly be said to have nothing."

With a light laugh, Shihen's lips curled into a pleasant smile, "Miss Vita should know this too, right?"

A god illegally abducted and imprisoned a child 1,500 years ago.

And today, 1,500 years later, that child's family naturally has a reason to come and take her back.

That's fair and just, isn't it?

"It is indeed very fair, even I, Xiaowei, can't help but applaud."

Vita said with a smile, her expression suddenly brightening, but inwardly she couldn't help but start cursing at someone.

She had heard a similar story about searching for relatives from the boy in Salt Snow Holy City, and at that time she even wondered if there was something wrong with her powers, or if the boy himself was mentally unstable.

But now it seems that the other party clearly knew about her ability to read minds all along, and even brazenly mocked her in front of her.

Thinking of this, Vita clenched her fist secretly, trying her best to suppress the urge to punch the boy's face.

"Vita, could you show us around here?"

Alicia blinked and asked.

"It seems I don't have any other choice."

Vita said, her eyes slightly narrowed.

“Miss Vita, that’s too harsh.”

In my heart, I've always considered you a close friend.

Shihen said in a serious tone.

"This is absolutely fantastic!"

I'm so, so happy to be friends with you all!

A bright smile appeared on her face, but Vita's tone was quite stiff, devoid of any extra emotion.

"It seems Miss Vita has a deep misunderstanding about me."

I am clearly an honest person; I have never told a single lie.

Shihen shrugged, somewhat helplessly.

"You've gone too far, Hen. Even I don't think those were misunderstandings."

Alicia mercilessly exposed him.

"..."

Vita simply turned around and led the way, silently observing the almost flirtatious behavior of the two people in front of her.

I was already fed dog food the whole way back in Salt Snow Holy City, and now that I'm back in Forlos, I have to keep eating it... Is there no justice left?

As they stepped from the hidden corners of Forlos into the alleyways, the scenes of civilization belonging to this remote planet gradually came into view of Shihen and Alicia.

Looking around, one sees wide, well-maintained streets, with rows of simple yet ingenious stone buildings, and exquisite decorations everywhere.

In stark contrast to this idyllic scene, the faces of most passersby were adorned with warm smiles, fully demonstrating the vitality and energy of Floros.

"What a beautiful city!"

As Alicia surveyed the streets and pedestrians of Forlos, a slight light shone in her eyes.

"It's just a pretty bonsai that the god made when he had nothing better to do."

Speaking in a flat tone, Vita showed absolutely no interest in Foros.

Having personally destroyed countless worlds and witnessed the destruction and resurrection of Frost several times, she found it difficult to develop much affection for this city.

After all, to her, Frost was indeed like a bonsai tree.

If something goes wrong, it needs to be repaired; if it's completely destroyed, it has to be pulled out and started over... Just like other planets in the solar system are undergoing constant cycles of civilization under the influence of collapse, this is also the unchanging fate of Frost for thousands of years.

The only difference is that she was the one who pressed the restart button for Foros.

"It seems your god is quite arrogant."

Shihen smiled and said.

Even though the gap between humans and gods is indeed so vast as to be almost insurmountable, humanity can still maintain its pride in the face of immense powers capable of easily destroying the world.

Like Sisyphus in Greek mythology, even if the gods high in the heavens could easily take away his life and freedom, they could not erase everything he had done.

Courage, faith, wisdom... If we don't even acknowledge these, then all of Sa's experiments in civilization are nothing but futile.

"It's impossible not to agree with that."

Vita nodded in deep agreement.

If it weren't for the fact that Suo Zong adopted a condescending attitude and even issued death warnings to her at the slightest provocation, she wouldn't have been so focused on defecting.

After all, she had once considered being a good follower and assistant to the god who created her and gave her life and wisdom.

Unfortunately, all that Sa gave her was trampling and contempt.

"Miss Vita, would you like to try changing jobs?"

Shihen asked with a smile, "I truly consider Miss Vita a close friend from the bottom of my heart, and I am willing to treat Miss Vita with the utmost sincerity."

Even with a gun pointed at Vita's head, he could still shout "I'm not lying" without hesitation.

"Oh? Is it the kind with a perfect score of 1000?"

She asked softly, a radiant smile spreading across Vita's face.

Having just experienced the events in the Salt Snow Holy City, she believed that the boy would not lie easily.

But there's no doubt that the other party has nothing to do with sincerity.

"..."

Shihen simply smiled and remained silent in response.

"Let's skip the work."

I finally managed to escape from my previous boss, and I was planning to enjoy this freedom.

She stretched and said, and the heart on Vita's chest immediately pounded in a trembling arc.

"But Miss Vita's current behavior can hardly be considered free."

Or is there still a treasure here that Miss Vita cannot ignore?

Shihen asked with a light laugh, his bright black eyes narrowing slightly.

"..."

Sensing the sharpness of the boy's gaze, Vita's body tensed up involuntarily. After a long while, a smile returned to the girl's face. "Isn't it a promise that I would be your guide? So, I, Vita, have come without hesitation."

As soon as Vita finished speaking, a slightly childish voice rang out:

"Sister Vita?"

The group looked in the direction of the sound and were astonished to see a girl who looked remarkably like a young version of Vita, with a ruby ​​key hanging around her neck, standing gracefully in the middle of the street, her face full of barely suppressed joy.

"..."

In response to the girl's cries, Vita pursed her lips and turned her head away, as if that would make the girl disappear.

But the girl clearly didn't understand Vita's intention. Without hesitation, she took a few quick steps and pounced on the woman, hugging her waist tightly with both hands. She rubbed her cheek against the woman and cried out joyfully, "Sister Vita! You're finally back!"

Feeling the girl's attachment to her up close, Vita kept her lips pursed and didn't answer, but her hands unconsciously wrapped around the girl and gently stroked her head.

"Oh, it's Vita!"

With a charming laugh, Alicia leaned forward a few notches, her bright, clear eyes sparkling.

"Ok?"

As if only now noticing Shi Hen and the other person, the girl looked up, her large, watery eyes revealing obvious surprise, "Sister Vita, are these two your friends?"

"them……"

Vita was about to explain when the boy interrupted her.

“That’s right, we are your Vita’s best friends, a million times better than you and Vita.”

Shihen said in a resolute tone.

"what?"

Startled by the words, the girl couldn't help but take a half step back. "Um... did I come at the wrong time?"

She remembered that people in Flores didn't want anyone else to bother them when they were with their best friends.

"Don't listen to their nonsense, we're just ordinary friends."

Vita lightly tapped the girl on the head, rolled her eyes at the boy, and said irritably.

"That's really a pity."

We've already been through thick and thin together, are we still just ordinary friends?
