Many times, the intensification of external pressure can effectively divert internal conflicts.
The same is true now.
Before setting off for the border, the atmosphere between the girls was somewhat tense and stiff.
But when they came back from the border, all they wanted to express was complaints.
Because that place is so hellish!!!
Monsters hiding in secret corners of the cemetery will suddenly pop up at any time. The same goes for the beasts in the caves. They may seem harmless on the surface, but they will sneak up behind you and bite you when you are not paying attention.
And beyond that, many of the monsters themselves are terrifying.
Like the sea saltpeter with tentacles wrapped around it at the seaside, just looking at it makes you want to take a detour. When running in the fog forest, suddenly a three-meter-tall giant bear rushed out with a roar. At the top of the mine, there are some people who look like they are covered in iron cages with several arms. When they walk over, these people in iron cages will suddenly fall from the sky, swinging their knives and slashing at them.
Although the girls are equipped with protective equipment and the attacks of this world cannot really hurt them, but... the damage caused to their fragile hearts is irreparable.
"Why would anyone design a world like this? Does this world exist just to laugh at us?"
After Ying Lili came back, she immediately started complaining.
"If we were to make a game based on this world, we would be cursed to death by the players! If the death game we entered was this, then no matter how many lives we had, it wouldn't be enough!!"
"Um……"
Asuna leaned on Lala and nodded weakly. Her fragile heart was on the verge of collapse after being tortured by the group of ants in the underground cave.
Not to mention there are frogs with eyes as big as balls...
Asuna felt like fainting when she thought about it now.
“The same goes for the snowy mountains…”
Xiao Hei also complained speechlessly.
"What the hell are those giants? And those plucked chickens... They're almost as big as the Tyrannosaurus Rex! They won't let go of them, how annoying!!"
With Eriri and the others taking the lead, the other girls also started to complain.
Qiong and Mikan said that the huge hands under the Kalia Castle have become a psychological shadow for them, while Mengmeng said that the Eternal City is very beautiful, but those bull-headed ghosts are too "hospitable" and they are almost turned into hedgehogs by the arrows they shot all over their bodies.
Even Altina and Tio, who were usually taciturn girls, expressed their opinions, because when they were heading to the Gallid Plains, they encountered a kind of insect man! That thing was like a centipede, with a long body and countless pairs of legs, as well as human-like hands and feet. When attacked, this kind of insect man would even lie on the ground like a centipede and rush towards them - at that time, even Kuang San's expression became extremely stiff, Altina and Tio were so terrified that they directly launched AOE to blast the entire ruins into slag.
By the way, Asuna fainted just by hearing Altina's description of the bug man. If she saw that thing, Asuna would probably lose consciousness on the spot.
As a result, the three girls, who originally had a slightly unharmonious relationship, became united against a common enemy because of this border area of the underworld.
The only lucky thing was that the scenery of Nyingmugfu and those cute little animals soothed the girls' wounded hearts to some extent. Especially those sheep that rolled on the grassland, which made the girls call them cute and said they wanted to take some to Tiandao Palace to raise...
So in this atmosphere, the three girls gradually became familiar with each other. One piece of evidence is that before they set out, they were still very polite in calling each other by their surnames, but now after coming back, they can directly call each other by their names, and those who have a better relationship will even add "酱" at the end.
By the way, Fang Zheng didn't expect that Qiong and Meigan's relationship would heat up so quickly. He knew Qiong had a strong desire to monopolize him, and Meigan's identity overlapped with hers, which might make Qiong unhappy. But after talking to the two separately, Fang Zheng realized that he had misjudged his idea.
Meigan likes Qiong very much, because in Meigan's opinion, Qiong is just a useless sister who can't take care of herself, and she also likes to take care of people. However, in this world, Fang Zheng has always taken care of Meigan, so Meigan has no chance to show her skills. But now this useless sister makes Meigan want to take care of her, or even a sense of obligation.
As for Qiong, it goes without saying that Fang Zheng originally trained her to be like a good-for-nothing who stays at home. Although she is not as bad as Izumi Sagiri, Qiong doesn't care about taking care of her personal life at all. In the past, Fang Zheng was responsible for handling the housework, and she didn't have any special ideas. But once Fang Zheng was not around and she had to handle it herself, Qiong would find it very troublesome.
And now, she has such a sensible sister who is willing to take care of her...what else can she be dissatisfied with?
One wants to take care of others, the other wants to be taken care of. These two really look like real sisters.
Of course, there are also some not-so-good developments.
For example, Xiao Hei, Meng Meng and Miao Jie... I don't know when these three people got together. Every time Fang Zheng saw them laughing and talking in low voices together, he felt a chill all over his body...
God knows what these three ghosts are discussing!
To be honest, bringing these three people together was a rare mistake made by Fang Zheng. He always had a premonition that he would be in danger...
After all, these three little elves... they are full of spooky ideas and are real ghosts.
However, at this moment, Fang Zheng suddenly felt that there seemed to be a slight fluctuation in the space-time at the border.
What happened?
When Fang Zheng frowned and tried to trace the source of the fluctuation, the fluctuation slowly disappeared.
Is it an illusion?
Fang Zheng thought for a moment, then shook his head.
Forget it. If there is anything unusual, Xiao Hei and the others should be able to find it when they investigate.
Just as Fang Zheng was happily watching the girls around him getting along harmoniously, a gust of wind suddenly blew across the grassland of Nimgfu, and several petite figures emerged from it.
"call……"
The leader was a cute girl with long pink hair. She opened her purple eyes, lay on the grass, glanced around, and spoke in a low voice.
"No, are you okay? I hope Mother and the others are not chasing us."
"Of course, don't you believe in the strength of this princess?"
The one who answered her was a girl with short golden hair and a Gothic dress. She raised her head proudly, with her wings spread out behind her and her long tail swinging back and forth.
"This princess inherited the power of time from my father, and there will be absolutely no mistakes! This is the truth of the world and cannot be overturned! Even my mother can't catch us! After all, they don't have the power to travel through time! This is the evidence that this princess is the chosen one!"
"By the way, this is the border area..."
At this moment, a third girl with white hair, red eyes, and wearing a dress, who was dressed quite simply and cutely, also stuck her head out and looked around.
“It looks beautiful here, doesn’t it?”
"But according to Tio's mother, this world is actually very scary. At least Asuna's mother and Eriri's mother don't want to get close to it."
"Yes, yes, yes. Qiong's mother said the same thing. She said the hand was scary. It was simply a psychological shadow..."
"That's why we hid here. As long as we hide here, we won't be caught by our mothers."
"You are so naive!"
However, just as the three girls finished speaking, suddenly, there was a loud shout, followed by a flash of golden light, and then a girl with long flaxen hair and a determined look appeared out of thin air. She held a rapier in one hand and stared at the three girls.
"You don't really think you can escape, do you? It's too easy to catch you by tracking the fluctuations of time and space!"
“Ah… Onee-sama!”
Looking at the girl with the rapier in front of them, the three girls turned pale, but soon, the blonde girl in Gothic clothes jumped up and stretched out her hand to point at the blonde girl.
"Here you go again! Why are you pretending to be a good kid here? Are you trying to betray us again?"
"What do you mean by betrayal? It's obviously because you secretly broke Mengmeng's mother's vase that you ended up like this, right? Just follow me and apologize!"
"Wow...at least just a little fun. That's nothing, right?"
"Mother is so scary, I don't dare go back..."
Hearing the blonde girl's words, the girl with long pink hair made a sad face and spoke tremblingly.
“Don’t be afraid!”
At this moment, the blonde girl suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at the rapier girl.
"I won't let you tell anyone!"
"What? You want to fight me?"
The girl narrowed her eyes and drew out the rapier in her hand.
"You don't really think you can be my opponent, do you? You know, your mother couldn't beat my mother either, right?"
"But Mother has drawn your mother's book!"
“…”
As the blonde girl said this, the atmosphere on the entire grassland suddenly became dead silent.
"I saw it, in the book of Asuna's mother that mother drew. The Asuna in it..."
"You're looking for death!!"
Before the blonde girl could finish her words, the rapier girl roared and swung the weapon in her hand forward in an instant. However, facing the attack of the rapier girl, the blonde girl didn't care at all and waved her hand violently.
"The World!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the rapier girl's body suddenly froze in the air. Even so, she was still glaring at the blonde girl fiercely.
"Hehehe, how's it going?"
Facing the gaze of the rapier girl, the blonde girl proudly puffed out her breasts inherited from her mother.
“Even though we all inherited our father’s bloodline, the strength of our awakening is different. Anyway, why are you pretending to be a good kid here? Don’t think I don’t know…”
At this point, the blonde girl took a deep breath and pointed at the rapier girl.
"You have secretly written in your diary that you want to become your father's bride!"
"Why--!?"
Hearing this, the other two girls were shocked, and the rapier girl blushed.
"You, you actually peeked at my diary? I'm going to tell mom...!"
She tried to struggle desperately, but because she was trapped in time, the rapier girl couldn't move at all.
"Huh? Who peeked at your diary? I just used my past vision to see what you were doing in your room. I didn't expect you to write something like that, and you looked so horrified at the time. I was so scared that I almost had a nightmare."
"You...I won't let you go!"
"Oh? Is that okay?"
The blonde girl smiled slightly at the rapier girl's smile.
"If I told the mothers that you wrote this kind of stuff in your diary, what do you think they would think?"
"Well……"
Hearing this, the rapier girl's expression suddenly froze.
"Besides, if Mother Qiong knew about this... hehe... right, little sister?"
As she spoke, the blonde girl looked at the white-haired girl next to her, and the white-haired girl hesitated and nodded.
"Well... Mom... is very troublesome in this regard."
“…”
The rapier girl was silent for a moment, and finally, she seemed to give up struggling.
"What are you going to do?"
"It's simple. I want you to be our companion! If we die, we die together! But before that..."
"???"
"I have a little plan."
At this point, the blonde girl showed her little canine teeth and a smug smile appeared on her face.
