Come into the darkness after the go.
Xiao Lan nonetheless feels a bit surreal.
He had anticipated to come back to the raven eventually and should have had one of many hardest hurdles to cross.
It turned out to be this harmonious and pleasant fan assembly state of affairs, and even the crows had been variety sufficient to present him poverty worth.
Mr. Crow is such a superb man, Xiao Lan thought.
Till he noticed Luo at nighttime.
Luo would not look too good.
Certainly one of his arms was lacking, and even a bit of his shoulder was lacking, as if it had been torn aside by some horrible drive.
Even the face, which bears a number of deep scratches, reveals a darkness beneath the pores and skin.
Xiao Lan rushed over to her, ” Luo! What’s fallacious with you?”
Luo moved his neck and gave a low chuckle, “Heh …… Miss Crow stunned me a bit of.”
Xiao Lan: “……”
this damage, the shock of the crow instructor appears …… a bit ferocious ah.
It will be extra apt to say that it was a shock.
With that, a puff of black shadow pours out of the gaping gap in Luo’s shoulder, then extends away, progressively taking the form of an arm.

Luo moved his new arm and after feeling free to maneuver it, he reached over and brushed the wound on his face, adjusting his pores and skin again to its unique kind.
Luo resumed his common posture, “However …… is okay, please don’t be concerned.”
Xiao Lan took a superb have a look at Luo earlier than lastly sighing with aid.
All of the sudden he considered Qi Ning.
If there’s going to be such a tough “shock” on the finish, is not Qi Ning, a critically injured man, in for a shock?
The 2 males hurriedly left the darkness and returned to their room.
Xiao Lan could not wait to make use of [Dark Crow Whispers] to contact Qi Ning.
Xiao Lan’s coronary heart was pounding when her telephone did not decide up for some time.
Nevertheless, the system doesn’t point out that the prop is unusable, or no less than that the holder of the prop is presently nonetheless alive.
Xiao Lan did not dare cling up and simply saved it energetic, watching [Dark Crow Whispers].
[Dark Crow Whispers] It is attending to the purpose the place he is staring off.
After just a few lengthy minutes, Qi Ning lastly obtained by.
His voice sounded deflated and extra breathless than common: “Cough cough …… cough …… Xiao …… Arashi? “
Xiao Lan requested, “How are you doing? Do you want any assist?”
Qi Ning A weak voice got here from over there, “Nonetheless alive …… I used [Adrenaline X0044] on the final minute to get out of it with none issues. In the intervening time …… cough …… cannot die, there’s a little facet impact, simply look forward to some time, no want to assist me.”
Commercial
He appeared to cough up a mouthful of blood, “Cough …… crows …… that is imply ……”
Maybe Qi Ning had at all times been like this, carrying his personal weight when he was injured and weak, and he did not wish to be seen in a nasty mild, even by somebody he may depend as a good friend.
Xiao Lan as soon as once more checked with him that he didn’t want any assist earlier than hanging up the communication.
After contacting Qi Ning, Xiao Lan was deep in thought.
Is it potential that his facet is probably the most attention-grabbing reader remedy for the crows and Luo and Qi Ning’s facet is the traditional go?
In order that’s the place the actual luck is available in.
How can it really feel so unreal to be out of Africa and into Europe?
It is like …… has been overdrawn on luck all his life ……
—
Again within the gamers’ room once more, the 2 took a superb relaxation.
Into the night time.
Xiao Lan sat alone on the head of the mattress and took out the Pandora’s Field she had obtained from B Sister Xiao from her cupboard space.
[Name: Pandora’s Box (Unknown)
[Ability: unknown]
[Description: Unknown].
Commercial
A field that’s imagined to be associated to Xiao Chengyan, the place all the things is unknown and can’t be opened by anybody else.
There is no such thing as a lock on the field, it seems to be simply closed at random.
However whether or not Xiao Lan turns it the wrong way up or flings it round, the lid doesn’t budge, as if it had been welded shut.
The chilly contact coming from the fingertips felt a pang of unease inside.
What precisely might be there in the event you open it?
He tentatively lifted the field.
The Pandora’s Field was opened with the slightest drive, as if it had been an bizarre unlocked field.
It’s as if Xiao Chengyan had tampered with the field in order that solely Xiao Lan may open it.
And inside was the steel bookmark that he had given to his personal father again within the day.
Xiao Lan picks up the bookmark.
The bookmark nonetheless appears to be like the identical because it did then, nothing has modified and it isn’t even a prop, no explanatory textual content might be seen.
Aside from that, it was empty.
That is it?
Xiao Lan could not assist however surprise.
Xiao Chengyan The field that was specifically positioned on the npc’s place and nobody may even open it, and it incorporates a bookmark that isn’t even a prop?
Commercial
He turned the bookmark time and again a number of instances, nonetheless with none luck.
It could’t be that Xiao Chengyan obtained bored and intentionally set himself up for a prank, can it?
“Hahahaha ……” All of the sudden, Xiao Lan heard fun coming from not distant subsequent to him.
He was clearly alone in his room, and there was no means that anybody may enter a participant’s room within the Introduction World with out the proprietor’s permission.
What is going on on right here?
Xiao Lan turns his head to look, however sees a well-known and considerably unfamiliar individual.
It is Xiao Chengyan.
However this Xiao Chengyan is nothing just like the one he remembers.
Though he had the identical options, this man’s eyes regarded conceited and reckless, his physique was a lot stronger and he wore a smile that Xiao Lan had by no means seen earlier than.
And what’s even stranger is that Xiao Chengyan is in an atmosphere the place
He was sitting on a rock subsequent to a lava pool, all bruised and together with his gray trench coat torn and tattered, wanting like he had simply been in an enormous struggle.
This lava pool is now built-in into Xiao Lan’s bed room.
Half of it’s a regular bed room, typically a naturally occurring lava pool, as if it was initially a part of his bed room.
What is the state of affairs?
“Hey, why are you playing around?” Xiao Chengyan spoke once more.
Commercial
Xiao Lan regained his senses and considered Xiao Chengyan’s standing as a grasp illusionist.
However for a second he was confused within the face of this overly complicated father: “……”
Xiao Chengyan, nevertheless, regarded unconcerned: “You appear to have a variety of doubts, however this medium was initially created for you anyway. Why do not you are taking your time and ask, as a father I can patiently clarify it to you.”
Xiao Lan shakes the bookmark in her hand, “Medium, is that this the bookmark you imply?”
Xiao Chengyan: “I’ve left some belongings you’re conversant in in a variety of playgrounds, and in the event you’re considering me, you may positively attain out, and all of this stuff finally level to me right here. Nicely, what do you wish to know?”
Xiao Lan considered it and picked a query to begin with, “While you …… disappeared, had been you not going to return to actuality.”
Xiao Chengyan nodded, “Sure, I had a aim that I wanted to present my all to, so I could not care for the actual world anymore, and I used to be planning to complete the remainder of the corporate and the associated money owed and never return.”
Xiao Lan frowned, “I used to be planning to cope with the debt, however then why did you strategy Cheng Wenyi …… No, it must be why you knew about my expertise and made certain I might positively enter the sport.”
Xiao Chengyan smiled, “Seems to be such as you’ve met that tart Cheng Wenyi, I suppose he took it upon himself to search out you, proper?”
Xiao Lan nods.
Xiao Chengyan: “At the moment I used to be not showing in plain sight, simply secretly caring for the remainder of the corporate’s enterprise. However at some point I stole …… I went residence to have a look and truly discovered the mark of the Introduction World in your physique.”
On the time it was only a quiet try and see the spouse and kids.
It’s tough to explain the second when he came upon that his son had additionally gone to hell.
“I despatched somebody to try to deliver you right here on the time, however guess what I discovered?”
“You possibly can’t hear something to do with the Introduction world.”
Commercial
“Is not it unusual {that a} man who carries the mark of the Introduction world is shielded like a traditional individual.”
Xiao Lan then remembered that there was as soon as a really unusual one that sneaked up on him one night time on his means from faculty, mouthed some gibberish and tried to get him into the automobile.
On the time, he thought he had met a psychopath or a pervert, so he simply ran away.
However to be sincere, that man with a tattoo of a inexperienced dragon on his left and a white tiger on his proper, and a lewd smile, he would not seem like a superb man anyhow ……
How may a young person who was solely fifteen however not silly select to go along with him?
Xiao Chengyan continues, “Then I discovered one thing even stranger – for an entire month you did not even enter the sport, which was one thing unbelievable within the Introduction world at the moment, when no participant may get that lengthy of a break. “
“Then later, I discovered one other mark in your physique. It is wonderful how that mark can really suppress the one which initially descended into the world.”
“So I sensed the ability of this mark and located the Disobedient.”
“Then from him, I discovered about you and with the chance you introduced we began working collectively.”
“Though the Paradox says you will not enter the sport once more so long as he would not die or get critically injured, you may’t simply put your eggs in a single basket proper, so I discovered Cheng Wenyi once more.”
Xiao Lan took a deep breath: “What about Mum? Have you ever ever considered her?”
Xiao Chengyan snickered and requested, “Are you underestimating Wen Qi?”
Wen Qi, which is the title of Xiao Lan’s mom.
Xiao Chengyan stares in an unknown course: “She as soon as discovered me after I selected to vanish.”
Xiao Lan was shocked: “What?”
Commercial
He had by no means heard his mom discuss it.
Xiao Chengyan stated, “She has by no means been a really shrewd individual and is commonly a bit confused, however this time she is simply too sensible ……”
” Wen Qi had began searching for me lengthy after I disappeared, and maybe the truth that somebody was secretly dealing with the corporate’s money owed had made her suspicious.”
“Then I had Cheng Wenyi stuff a debt below her title, however I wasn’t going to let her additionally …… cough I had somebody organize a brand new id for her to depart the nation, she simply needed to wait just a few years overseas till you had been an grownup after which she was free.”
“However she used the result in get straight to me, and I do not even know when she had that.”
“She even guessed vaguely by my behaviour that it had one thing to do with the Introduction World, guessed my objectives and even motives for creating the debt, however sadly, I could not inform her something due to the restrictions of the Introduction World.”
“Afterwards, she requested me only one query -“
“Would not our son be in peril if what you wish to do fails?”
Xiao Chengyan turns to Xiao Lan and asks, “Is not that intelligent?”
Xiao Lan was speechless for a second. He remembered his mom as a mild individual, not precisely the profession kind, and such sensitivity was a far cry from what he remembered.
Xiao Chengyan requested once more, “Would you want to fulfill her? I have never seen her for a very long time …… too.”
As his phrases fell, Xiao Chengyan reached out and pointed to his head, then tapped his index finger into the void.
A sheet of sunshine and shadow out of the blue sprang from his fingertips, interweaving into the image.
A girl seems within the image.
Her options are the fragile softness that Xiao Lan remembers, with a mild calmness that appears to emanate from her bones.
Commercial
Sadly, Xiao Lan appears to be like extra like Xiao Chengyan, apart from her chilly white pores and skin and face form, she has little resemblance to her mom, and she or he has not inherited her mom’s light temperament.
However in the intervening time, the expression on Wen Qi’s face was as stern as Xiao Lan had ever seen.
She stares straight at Xiao Chengyan, who’s sitting reverse her, with no signal of softening or retreating.
Wen Qi: “What did you say?!”
Xiao Chengyan’s tone is flat: “Depart him alone, he must sharpen as much as develop and he would not have a lot time. “
Wen Qi clenched his fist: “How can we make him develop with out educating?”
Xiao Chengyan is uncompromising: “If he dies or falls aside due to this, he would not should be my son.”
Anger made Wen Qi’s breath catch and she or he reached for the cup in entrance of her, splashing it viciously at Xiao Chengyan: “Get out! My son, I can’t depart him alone.”
Xiao Chengyan may have simply dodged it, however he did not and was splashed throughout his face.
The 2 males within the scene are caught in a short silent confrontation.
Xiao Chengyan, who’s off-screen, says, “Wen Qi is so lovely, she’s the one individual on the earth who appears to be like this good even when she’s offended.”
Xiao Lan: “…… Are you a jitterbug?”
“Hahahahahahahahahaha ……” Xiao Chengyan laughed to herself.
Xiao Chengyan opens his mouth with out wiping his face and says calmly, “He must discover ways to survive by any means, even when it means dishonest, betraying, stealing, and even stepping on different individuals’s our bodies. What he’s about to face isn’t an atmosphere that may be solved by any parental training.”
Wen Qi stood up: “I’ll by no means permit my son to turn out to be a despicable one that will do something to outlive! He’ll dwell as an honest and good individual!”
Commercial
Xiao Chengyan: “Even when such kindness would kill him?”
Wen Qi stated firmly, “I’ll educate him that good individuals have an opportunity to dwell too, and that goodness doesn’t imply weak point, nor stupidity, nor incompetence.”
“Now, go about your enterprise and I will care for my son right here.”
“No extra appearances, do not let him find out about your horrible plans, let him assume his father is basically lacking.”
“Let’s have a look at which considered one of us is correct.”
With that, Wen Qi rotated and left.
Xiao Chengyan simply sat the place he was, watching her again as she left, his eyes unblinking.
All of the sudden, Wen Qi’s footsteps had been halted.
With out turning round, she requested softly, “How certain are you …… that you’ll come again alive?”
Xiao Chengyan regarded like he was speaking about one thing that had nothing to do with him: “One or two p.c, I feel.”
Wen Qi: “…… loopy.”
Xiao Chengyan simply smiles and would not say something.
As Wen Qi’s ahead steps had been about to exit the door, he spoke, “Take care, you are not properly nowadays, and I will preserve that international id for you.”
Wen Qi’s ahead motion stops as soon as extra, however nothing is alleged.
As her determine had stepped out the door, an virtually inaudible voice got here from the doorway, “Take care ……”
Commercial
Inside, Xiao Chengyan smiles and replies with a muzzle: I’ll.
The picture blurs up and fades out of sight.
Xiao Chengyan has some regrets: “It is a disgrace that it may possibly solely be proven up to now now.”
Xiao Lan whispered, “It was the best misfortune of her life to know you.”
He remembered that his mom’s well being had not been good since then and she or he had been hospitalised as soon as.
It was then that he tried to prepare dinner and ended up burning his personal arms, after which entered the Introduction world for the primary time.
In a while, his mom struggled with him in a tough life and took nice pains to show him, and it was solely by such exhaustion that his situation deteriorated quicker and quicker and he ultimately died.
With out Xiao Chengyan and Xiao Lan herself, Wen Qi would most likely have been completely satisfied and properly off, even when she was terminally sick, and would have handed away with the loving care of her household.
Maybe even she was a part of her misfortune. Xiao Lan thought.
Xiao Chengyan’s voice interrupted Xiao Lan’s ideas, “Foolish son, you wish to save her. However are you able to do it?”
“You possibly can’t remedy her, you may’t settle the debt, and you may’t even do something about me who created this example.”
“Is not it disheartening?”
Xiao Lan turned his head to take a look at him, “Do not provoke me along with your phrases, the place the hell are you? What is the state of affairs along with your disappearance?”
Xiao Chengyan pointed to the tumbling lava round him with a smile of indifference: “I’m already useless, and my physique is dissolving on this lava pool, what you might be speaking to is only a little bit of my consciousness left behind.
This time Xiao Lan was really shocked.
Though Cheng Wenyi advised the story of Xiao Chengyan’s loss of life, Xiao Lan at all times felt that he was holding again an enormous transfer at nighttime.
The result’s now ……
Xiao Chengyan, actually useless?
