"What exactly happened?" Li Aili, who was forced to buy a ticket, pulled Charles aside and asked.
Charles, his pupils still dizzy from the shock, said uncertainly, "It might be his ex-girlfriend..."
After considering Assange's 'glorious achievements,' Chalmont carefully corrected himself, saying, "It could also be a stranger with whom you shared a pleasant evening..."
“A strange 'six-armed snake demon'.”
Li Aili: "..." This species sounds a bit too terrifying.
Before the time travel, netizens joked that the male protagonist in a classic love story was a ruthless person because his love story transcended species.
After transmigrating, I was surprised to find that there were quite a few ruthless people like him among the people I knew.
They are all intelligent races; perhaps she is being narrow-minded.
You might end up being taken to court by some elven lawyer for 'species discrimination'.
In a sense, Assange is the same kind of flower fairy, so there's no need to worry about him. Li Aili decided to get down to business.
Leaving the teleportation hall, you'll find yourself in the Adventurers' Guild's 'Reception Hall'.
It was Li Aili's first time here, but she didn't get lost at all.
In the center of the reception hall stood a colossal creature, a large lizard with eight snake heads.
Eight reception desks were set up around this enormous creature.
Each front desk has a queue.
"This is the receptionist at the Adventurers' Guild. We like to call him 'Little Eight'."
Chalmon thought for a moment and added, "His species name is 'multi-headed lizard,' but this one is an eight-headed lizard."
Li Aili: "..."
“Very good. The receptionist is both efficient and highlights the characteristics of the Adventurers' Guild.”
Charles, who was following behind Li Aili in line, asked, "What are the characteristics?"
Li Aili: "Exciting."
Charles: "..."
And you know what? This guy with eight heads is really efficient.
Before long, it was Li Aili's turn.
The enormous snake head lowered, and Li Aili could see that an arcane item was mounted on the snake's neck, shaped somewhat like a small trumpet, with a number 7 thoughtfully affixed to it.
Let's call it Snake Head Number Seven for now.
"Um, excuse me, if I want to see the Sphinx, I should..."
The snake's head looked exactly like the impatient, grumpy ticket seller from a past life, but the voice that followed was a hoarse, husky female voice: "Turn left after you go out, and keep walking until you find the Sphinx's lair."
Li Aili: "Oh, thank you..."
The snakehead impatiently interrupted again, "Next."
Just as Li Aili was about to leave, the smuggler at the next table suddenly approached her; the number tag hanging around his neck was 6.
The enormous snake head lowered and approached Li Aili.
"Hey, beautiful."
Great, this voice is male.
Li Aili's mind was filled with thoughts like, "Where should this creature go to the bathroom?"
"Um, hello, Mr. Six, may I ask..."
It seems to be a common trait of this breed that they don't like to listen to people finish speaking; their heads are the same regardless of gender.
Snakehead Number Six said, "I heard you say you were going to find the Sphinx?"
Li Aili: "Yes..."
The smuggler, number six, interrupted, "Oh, then you'd better go to the main hall across the street first and see if there's anything you need to do."
Li Aili said, "Thank you..."
Snakehead Number Six: "You're welcome."
The smuggler, number six, looked at Li Aili with lingering affection: "I'll come to see you often in the future."
[The Sphinx will finally have a decent 'collectible'.]
Li Aili: "???"
Just as Li Aili was about to leave, she heard the number seven female smuggler and the number six male smuggler start fighting.
"You're making the same old mistake again, hitting on every pretty girl you see! Have you even finished your own work?! You idiot!"
"none of your business!"
"Have you counted how much salary we've had deducted because of you?"
Then the two snake heads began to bite each other, and the hall was filled with gasps of alarm.
Li Aili grabbed Charles's collar and ran out of the reception hall.
Opposite is a magnificent hall built of giant stones, with thirteen giant-sized stone statues serving as pillars to support the dome of the entire hall.
"This is where you process death benefits or submit wills," Charles said. "What are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Li Aili silently withdrew her foot, which was about to step into the hall, and turned to walk in the direction pointed out by the snake head number seven.
After exiting the reception hall, turn left and you will walk onto a straight gravel path.
If you keep walking, you'll find this pebble path quite peculiar.
Both sides of the road were covered with signs bearing incomprehensible words.
for example:
Life is so beautiful, why give up so easily?
You, so wonderful, deserve a wonderful tomorrow.
Do not easily sacrifice your life for your beliefs!
...
Finally, at the end of the road lies the famous 'Stone Statue Forest'.
The last wooden sign finally revealed the truth: in old, red paint, a line of large, blood-stained characters was written:
We really have no new space to put a statue of the Sphinx! If you don't really want to die, please turn around and go home!!
Li Aili: "..."
Ellie said to Charles, "You wait for me here."
After much hesitation, it was ultimately the blood-stained warning sign that made the difference.
Without Assange's unscrupulous actions, the ultimate assassin candidate ultimately didn't dare to gamble on whether the god of assassins would protect him in the face of a mythical creature like the Sphinx.
Li Aili walked alone through the stone forest and came to the foot of a small hill.
