Chapter 0220: The Plucked Strings



"Do I really want to play this, Sonya?"

Looking at the computer in front of her, Nanoka was about to cry but had no tears. She had never been interested in computer games, but compared to other Fire Mist Warriors, as a girl who lived and grew up in modern society, at least Nanoka would not be too unfamiliar with these things. But... this computer seemed a little strange?

It's not like Sonia hasn't seen a computer before, but the laptop that Fang Zheng showed her was different from any model Sonia had ever seen. Compared to ordinary laptops, it looked more like a thin photo album. And the picture after opening it was not displayed on the screen like the computers Sonia had seen before, but a virtual screen projected directly into the air.

In fact, these are certainly not electrical appliances from Shana's world, but things Fang Zheng brought back from the Edge of Tomorrow world. As a high-tech world, Fang Zheng had collected a lot of good things in the Edge of Tomorrow world, especially these entertainment products. However, considering the characteristics of these things, Fang Zheng couldn't use them in the main world, but it was still a good choice to kill some time in the secondary world.

Otherwise, in the world of "Predator", how did he survive such a long interstellar journey?

I just don't know if the nature of the plane has an impact on the civilization of that world, so most of the games and movies in the world of "Edge of Tomorrow" are science fiction. Some of them Fang Zheng has seen before, but there are many that he has never heard of, and they are games unique to that world.

But no matter what, it’s always a happy thing to have new games to play, right?

"Wow... so many, Sonia, which one should we play?"

"How about the circle in the middle?"

"All right."

Hearing her partner's suggestion, Nanoka nodded, then she reached out and pressed on the virtual screen as prompted. Soon, the picture in front of her changed again. Then, in the boundless universe, a huge steel battleship slowly appeared and sailed forward.

"Cortana, I just need to know that we got rid of them or not."

"I think we all know the answer to that."

As the conversation progressed, a whole new world slowly unfolded before the girl.

For single people, games are the best entertainment, but for Fang Zheng, there are better ways to kill time.

When Fang Zheng opened his eyes, the first thing he felt was the warm and petite body of the girl in his arms. Tilia curled up in front of Fang Zheng's chest like a small animal and fell into a deep sleep in his arms. Through the light of the neon lights shining from outside, he could clearly see the girl's exposed, porcelain-white skin. The translucent pink pajamas wrapped around the immature body, which had not yet fully developed, gave people a fatal temptation.

Woo... this is really hard to control.

Looking at the angelic face of the girl who was sleeping with her eyes closed, Fang Zheng couldn't help but lick his lips. Although Tilia had never explained it to him directly, Fang Zheng knew why she came to sleep with him every day. In fact, Tilia had hinted more than once that "brother, you can do anything to me", but Fang Zheng still didn't eat this wonderful fruit.

This is not because Fang Zheng is willing but unable, nor is it because he is worried that he will be forced to start from three years. How should I put it... Strictly speaking, this should be considered a premonition.

Fang Zheng could vaguely feel that Tilia's request to him now was not entirely out of her own will, but more like a driven desire. If I had to say it, it was a situation like "My setting is to give everything I have to my brother, so please accept me, brother." Rather than saying that she is a sister who loves her brother deeply, it is more like a "professional spirit" like engaging in a special profession, because the customer paid, so I must greet him with a smile and accept whatever the other party does.

It was also because of this that Fang Zheng could sense that if he could not control himself and pounced directly on her, the relationship between him and Tilia would probably be forever frozen at the level of "master and hired servant". Although this seemed not bad, there would always be a gap.

Just like the little angel Nymph was respectful to him at the beginning and seemed willing to die for him, but in fact it was also a kind of "exchange", so after losing the chain, the little angel was quite terrified. It was not until a few days of getting along in the snowy hut that she really accepted Fang Zheng, and before Fang Zheng left this time, she took the initiative to offer to stay in the main world to look after Fang Zheng's "property", which Fang Zheng thought was a normal relationship.

The current situation between him and Tilia is similar. If he can hold back for the time being, the feelings between the two will become deeper. It won't be too late to take action when Tilia is really willing to accept him.

To be honest, Fang Zheng is also quite looking forward to this.

After all, in his own world, Fang Zheng has never done this before... Otherwise, he would have ended up in a detention center or prison.

"call……"

With a sigh of relief, Fang Zheng shifted his focus away from Tilia's cute sleeping face and looked at the ceiling in front of him. He couldn't bear to look at it any longer. This annoying little goblin was easy to commit a crime if he looked at her for too long. He had to think of something else to divert his attention, such as... the Soul Stone.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng reached out his hand, opened the Dimension Codex again, and summoned out the soul stone that had not yet been unsealed.

Looking at the soul stone in front of him, Fang Zheng suddenly had an idea.

Why not put this soul stone in and try it?

This was like a guide, or a flash of inspiration. In short, Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment before unfolding the codex, reaching out his hand, guiding the soul stone to slowly enter the groove, and then with a "click" it replaced the original "Alsace" soul stone.

“——!!”

At the moment of replacing the soul stone, Fang Zheng felt a strange shudder again, and a dark, cold force flowed along the soul stone into his body, and then quickly disappeared. This was the inevitable reaction of switching soul stones, but other than that - Fang Zheng seemed to feel nothing.

He did not gain the other party's memory like he did when activating other soul stones, nor did he feel any skills or powers that could be used.

As expected, it is completely useless unless the seal is lifted?

Faced with this result, Fang Zheng could only shrug his shoulders helplessly. But just as he was about to reach out and remove the soul stone, suddenly, a voice appeared in Fang Zheng's ears.

The heavy stone door slowly fell down.

In the infinite, transparent dark universe, a magnificent crystal palace floated in it. At the end of the crystal-clear stairs, on the high platform formed by columns, a girl wearing a loose white robe and a large white hat was kneeling on the ground, her hands clasped tightly in front of her chest, praying with a calm and devout face. Towards the infinite depths, towards the gap between the two worlds, towards the most supreme existence, praying, requesting, calling on each other.

"ah……"

At this moment, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, and her blue eyes were filled with excitement and joy. Then she closed her eyes again and knelt down on the ground.

"Alliance leader... you finally heard my voice..."

As the girl prayed, crystal clear tears flowed down her cheeks and dripped onto the ground.
