Chapter 439 Liu Chi's Helplessness
After bringing Theresa to the fortress, Liu Chi did not hide anything and directly introduced them.
"This is the former sky city, but it's just its wreckage. I hope you don't take it too seriously."
"Castle in the Sky?"
Theresa said doubtfully. After a moment of confusion, her expression of doubt turned into shock.
"Are you the lord of the legendary Sky City? But that's not right, aren't you the former prince of the Ogar Empire?"
Seeing Liu Chi walking away, Theresa chased after him.
"Hey!"
Liu Chi turned around and simply said,
"I've already told you what I wanted you to know. Please don't ask too much about other things. We will be in Liro by tonight. Find a place to rest. I'll call you when the time comes."
Theresa had no choice but to watch Liu Chi leave and stood there silently without moving.
After leaving, Liu Chi came to the room immediately. Lying on the bed, he entered the sea of consciousness without saying a word.
After walking out of the hut and seeing the small lake and the pavilion in the lake not far away, Liu Chi walked to the edge of the lake. Sensing that something was wrong with Liu Chi, Zhu Xiu appeared beside him.
"What's wrong? Are you still thinking about that pillar?"
Liu Chi glanced at Zhu Xiu and laughed.
"Aren't you thinking about that pillar, too?"
Zhu Xiu touched his nose.
"Do you have any idea?"
Liu Chi shook his head, stretched out his hand and waved it gently towards the lake, and a one-to-one replica of the pillar appeared in front of the two of them.
"I don't have any clues, but this is its entire appearance. My mission has been updated to the Black Dragon's Treasure, so I am sure that the inscription on this pillar must contain some secrets."
As he spoke, Zhu Xiu walked to the side of the pillar, touched it with his hand, and asked,
"What material is the one at the scene? It feels like stone to me."
"I don't know, but it looks like a stone. I don't know what the tower will do with this pillar."
"High tower? How about we go over there and take a look? We don't have any clues about Dark Night Star Pupil right now, so why not go and see what the high tower is doing?"
Zhu Xiu analyzed, his eyes still looking at the inscription on the pillar, and then said,
"If this cylinder is just a carrier, then we have actually got the important things?"
"Maybe. I'll put this pillar here. I'm afraid you can't remember it. I'll go study the inscription on it now. I may need you to log in and play for me later."
"Playing on behalf of others?"
When Zhu Xiu heard this, his head was buzzing. Isn't this something that only exists in his world? How come Liu Chi is also involved?
"It may take me quite a while to study these inscriptions, so I can give you control of the body first. This will help dampen the tower's arrogance. If possible, go check on Kalina to see what's going on over there."
Zhu Xiu listened to Liu Chi's words, shook his head and said,
"You want me to fight again, right? Why don't you go yourself, Gaota? Are you asking me to fight for you?"
Liu Chi sighed softly and smiled.
"I'm not like you who enjoys fighting. Besides, don't you have things you need to accomplish as well? Why not take this opportunity to do them?"
Zhu Xiu also laughed and took his hand off the cylinder. At this time, he had no interest in the inscription on the cylinder. He was waiting for Liu Chi to find the answer.
Sometimes, when you know you can’t help, it’s better to stand aside and cheer them on. At least this won’t affect the people who are doing the work.
The conversation between the two stopped as Zhu Xiu left.
Liuchi turned back to the hut and began to try to translate the inscription.
On the way from the fortress back to Lilo, Yanagichi stayed in the sea of spirituality, while Theresa secretly observed the vice admiral's fortress under Nanako's guidance, but she did not enter many places because she did not have the authority.
Seeing that it was already evening, Liu Chi immediately withdrew from the sea of consciousness. After confirming that Li Luo had entered the teleportation range, Liu Chi found Theresa who was resting on a chair.
Liu Chi didn't deliberately step lightly, but the slight sound of his footsteps still woke Theresa up.
"Ah! Are we there yet? Or is it time to eat?"
"When Lilo arrives, we can eat. Can you take care of yourself?"
Hearing Liu Chi's words, Theresa immediately became alert. This was completely out of her control, so she asked slowly,
"Do you want to find the Dark Night Star Pupil by yourself?"
Liu Chi shook his head and replied,
"There is no news about Dark Night Star Pupil right now, so I plan to deal with other things first. I have a confidant in Liro. If you get any information about Dark Night Star Pupil there, please contact her. Similarly, if I want to look for Dark Night Star Pupil, I will take you with me."
"I believe you have seen that the group of people in the tower took the cylinder away. I also want to know the secret. This matter will surely spread soon, and the world may be in chaos by then."
Liu Chi paused, then continued with a smile.
"Perhaps this incident will lead to the Dark Night Star Pupil. I am looking forward to the news from the tower being leaked out soon."
After listening to Liu Chi's words, Theresa was completely stunned. It was like passing the interview, but the HR told you to wait for notification on the working hours, and the working hours were far from certain.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. After a while, Theresa finally asked,
"I am also an insider. Why don't you take me with you to deal with this matter? Maybe like this time, I can help you?"
Liu Chi directly shook his head and refused.
"I think it's better for me to be alone. When danger really comes, there's no way I'll leave you behind."
Hearing Liu Chi say this, Theresa immediately developed a liking for him.
Is this his way of telling me that he cares about me?
The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. The next second, Liu Chi poured a basin of ice water on her head.
"Don't get me wrong, I just don't want a burden."
Liu Chi said lightly. In his eyes, Theresa's faint smile turned into solemnity.
At night, Liu Chi took Theresa directly to the small square in front of the hotel, which was also where the two met.
"You go in. With your financial resources, my place is not considered high-end, but it is enough. If you have anything to say, please tell them. I won't go there."
Theresa nodded and looked towards the tall building not far away. Although Liu Chi said it was not high-end, Theresa knew very well that an entertainment venue of this scale was unique in the whole of Liro. Although it was not as good as the entertainment venue under the name of Adela, the geographical location and style of the two were different and there was no comparison at all.
When Theresa turned around, Liu Chi's figure had disappeared from her sight. She smiled, with a hint of relief in her helplessness.
With a hint of anticipation, Theresa stepped into the hotel lobby.
Liu Chi went straight back to the fortress, and after eating some food, he entered the sea of spirituality.
This time, Liu Chi did not go directly to the third continent in the south, but wanted to contact Alice. After all, she was the oldest person he knew.
Moreover, Alice is not like those old elves who just stay at home and don’t go out. As the person in charge of Alice Chamber of Commerce, at least she is fully connected with the world.
After staying in the spiritual sea until late at night, Liu Chi, who had gained nothing, shook his head in confusion. After exiting the spiritual sea, he was dazed for a while before deciding to start the second plan.
Then he opened the technology system and saw Alice in the contact list. After much hesitation, he called her.
Almost instantly, Alice's holographic image appeared in front of Liu Chi.
"What's wrong? Miss me?"
Alice crossed her legs, her skirt vaguely visible. She was not wearing panties, but a nightgown.
Seeing this scene, Liu Chi felt a little regretful. He did not expect that it was also night where Alice was, which meant that she was now in the Western Hemisphere.
"Baby, thank you very much for your help last time. This time I have something else I want to ask you."
"We are a family now, so it's not too much for my husband to ask for some pocket money, as long as he doesn't spend it on other women."
Alice smiled, and there seemed to be other meaning in her smile.
"Why, what are you going to ask this time? Are you asking about our wedding date?"
Liu Chi smiled and said,
"Baby, the black dragon seal has been lifted."
"I know!"
Alice's smile froze instantly.
"So you came to me just to ask about those inscriptions?"
