To be honest, Su Luo hadn't met many people in the apocalypse, and even fewer people he had frequent contact with or been close to. Most of them were residents of his own city, Los Angeles, especially the original group that founded the organization. He didn't think any of them looked like the leader of the [Abyss] Spark Society.
Moreover, what is the significance of this person coming to her side? Is it so certain that she will overthrow the Ghost King City and then enter the Abyss?
In truth, the Abyss was Zhao Jinlai's doing. If she weren't certain that the president of the Spark Society was a real person, she would have thought that Zhao Jinlai was the president.
Seeing Su Luo deep in thought, Shu Li and Yang Zijin wisely kept quiet and waited.
Ten minutes later.
Su Luo went through all the candidates in her mind and finally selected three, no, four representatives.
Lin Shuyu, Yan Ruyu, and... Xia Ming.
As for why there are four, it's because Su Luo couldn't tell whether the fourth person was human or a monster.
Night's clear waves.
In the previous life, I saw it as a human, but in this life, it has become a monster, and a powerful six-star monster at that. If I can return to the Abyss, given the environment there, breaking through to the seventh star or even reaching the eighth star would be no problem.
Only these three people and one charlatan have this possibility.
Seeing that Su Luo seemed to have made some progress, Shu Li felt a little relieved. Her persistence over the past year had not been in vain; at least, someone had indeed come from outside the Abyss.
They are... luckier than the rest of the world.
"Once we find him, do you want me to bring the guild leader back for you? Or should I just take you out of the [Abyss]?"
“We…can’t get out.” Shu Li shook her head. If she could, she would have left long ago. “We are native to the Abyss. The Abyss’s barrier will stop us, and…” Shu Li glanced at Su Luo as she said this.
"The more powerful a being is, the more difficult it is to leave and return to their original world. However, you are not a native of the Abyss, so even with your domain on the Nine Stars, it will be easier for you to leave than for us."
A global barrier? A protective mechanism?
It's somewhat like the setting in those fantasy novels before the apocalypse, where the world consciousness can resist powerful external invasions, allowing only relatively weaker beings to break through the world barrier.
So, it seems that the Spark Society is quite capable. Their leader's domain level must be quite high, as they were able to break through the local restrictions to reach her post-apocalyptic world. They must have some tricks up their sleeves.
"Our request is not high, we just need you to convey the president's message."
That's really not a high requirement.
With what Su Luo currently possesses, once he confirms the identity of any of them, passing on the message will be a matter of minutes.
but……
"What exactly is the Spark Society up to?"
The president needs to break through the barrier and enter her world; it can't just be a trip.
"We don't know either." Shu Li shook her head. "It all started after the president went to the forbidden area of the Holy Domain."
Forbidden Zone of the Holy Land?
Another new map has been unlocked. It should be related to the Sanctuary. To be even bolder, it should be related to the change of ownership between the Divine Capital and the Sanctuary.
Then, as if she had thought of something, Shu Li added a few more words, "The president said that he seems to know a way to stop it, and knows the truth of the world, so he is going to verify this truth."
Verify the truth?!
Go to the apocalypse to verify the truth?
Considering the strange occurrences that had likely happened multiple times in her world or other worlds before, Su Luo seemed to understand something.
Is the president of the Spark Association trying to stop this from continuing...?
I came to the Abyss to unravel its mysteries, but so far, the mysteries have only multiplied. To this day, I still have no clue about the strange creature I first encountered…
etc!
Perhaps the clue lies with her herself.
Within the realm of [Time], she might be able to rewind time and see the other person's face clearly!
Thinking of this, Su Luo waved for Shu Li, who had already finished speaking, to leave, leaving Yang Zijin behind.
Although Yang Zijing wasn't very capable, she was still the person who had been with him the longest and he knew some of her background. Even if her cat ears and tail were revealed later, he wouldn't panic too much.
Domain, release.
[Time] Rewind.
The surrounding light dimmed instantly, and beneath his feet was a silver ribbon, like a galaxy under a starry night sky. As Su Luo retreated, various scenes began to play on both sides of the ribbon, time began to rewind, and the images began to rewind. Finally, Su Luo stopped in front of one of the images.
That was... the scene when she had just fallen into the Abyss.
Facing the painting, Su Luo thought for a moment, then reached out and touched it. A flash of white light appeared, and Su Luo's figure gradually disappeared into the Milky Way of Time.
Suddenly opening his eyes, Su Luo found himself back on that strangely shaped street, surrounded by a biting wind, silent and eerie.
In the scene, not far away, a version of himself with cat ears and a cat tail stands up, walks to a glass window, and carefully observes the ears on his head and the tail behind him.
Seeing this, Su Luo suspiciously approached the surrounding wall, slowly moved behind him, and as expected, his arm passed through the wall without pain. He was in a state of... soul or consciousness.
Without a physical body, he returned to that day merely as an observer.
Sure enough, rewinding your own time is a little different from rewinding someone else's.
Following his previous actions, Su Luo was certain that the powerful monster was about to appear...
'Ring ring'.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Su Luo seemed to hear a faint sound of wind chimes, as if coming from a very distant place, deep and melodious.
In the blink of an eye, a strange figure appeared out of thin air behind her! To be precise, it was the figure from her past memories!
Unlike his original form, with the protection of the Nine Stars Domain, Su Luo's fear of that strange creature was not as strong at this moment, but he was still truly shocked by that profound and powerful strange aura.
A loose, crescent-white robe draped over the strange creature, its pale golden hair casually braided and hanging down its back, adorned with strange, star-like ornaments. Starlight swirled around it, and no matter how Su Luo moved, she could only see its profile.
A faint golden pattern, depicting a sky full of stars, appeared on half of his face, a blend of softness and strength, yin and yang, neither male nor female, like... a mysterious high priest from a novel who embodies both male and female!
"Huh, there are still survivors?"
Hearing the same words a second time, Su Luo still felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were about to be attacked by this strange creature.
But after saying that, the other person seemed to realize something, and slowly turned his face. A beam of starlight fell on his profile, so that Su Luo could not see his face clearly, but she was very sure that he was looking at her!
