Zuan's heart skipped a beat, and he fell silent.
Fireworks sneered, "Although you gave a lot of reasons just now, they were mostly unfounded. I've been reflecting on where I slipped up, and I think it must be at the Rift Chain Bridge."
“That’s right,” Zuan said frankly now that things had come to this. “At the beginning, I was very touched that you deliberately used your body to take that whip for me. After all, no man can refuse a woman who would risk her life for him.”
"But when I combined those previous doubts and calmly considered the whole matter, I suddenly wondered, could it be that the long whips weren't initially aimed at me, but at you?"
"By taking that whip for me, you made me mistakenly believe that you were risking your life to save me, and after that, I blocked most of the chain attacks for you."
In fact, there is another very important reason besides this, which is that Mi Li did not appear during this period.
Normally she would be asleep, but after encountering so many dangerous things, she should have woken up long ago.
The only explanation is that she sensed danger and realized that if she revealed herself, even she would be discovered, bringing even more indescribable danger.
This silence was the only way he could prompt himself to deal with the immediate danger.
Having relied on each other for so many years, the two have become the closest comrades-in-arms, and often they don't necessarily need to use words to pass on intelligence.
Of course, I definitely can't tell this to the guy in front of me.
After listening to his analysis, 'Fireworks' had a half-smile on his face: "You are indeed very smart, but do you know that sometimes being too smart is not necessarily a good thing for a man? After going through countless years, I am also a little lonely. It is rare that I find you somewhat pleasing to the eye. If you were a little less clever and more cooperative, I might take you as my male concubine when I am in a good mood. At least you can be happy for a long time."
"I wanted to pretend I didn't know, but I couldn't resist for a second." Zuan sounded a little regretful.
"Oh, actually it's not a big problem. I can erase your memories. I'll still be my Fireworks, and you can be my Brother Zu, how about that?" Fireworks's eyebrows showed a hint of amusement. Although the man in front of her was weak, he did give her a completely different experience.
She didn't mind playing the game with him a little longer; after all, it was the first time in all these years that she had met such an interesting guy.
“I still want to be a clear-headed person, even if the outcome is not good, it’s better than being a fool.” Zuan shook his head and suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh. “Besides, I have now been chosen by the God of Memory. Memory is what He values most, so how could I dare to abandon it casually?”
Fireworks' face darkened: "Do you think bringing up Meng will scare me?"
A thought struck Zu'an: she actually called out the God of Memory's name, and it sounded somewhat familiar? Why was she completely unafraid...?
It should be understood that true gods are transcendent beings. If anyone dares to disrespect them in private, they will surely sense it and then bring down divine punishment. Therefore, all the realms of the heavens and the myriad worlds are extremely reluctant to mention the gods, for fear of becoming a blasphemer.
Seemingly guessing his thoughts, 'Fireworks' sneered: "You don't need to expect Him to save you. This forbidden place is a place that even the true god does not want to approach."
"Oh, what exactly is this place?" Zuan naturally didn't believe that this was some forbidden area of the Dreamland. Even if she had wiped out the entire Dreamland by herself, she was powerful, but surely not powerful enough to make a true god fear her.
"You're so smart, can't you guess what it is? If you guess right, I'll give you a reward." 'Fireworks' still looked like that youthful girl, but her tone and demeanor were completely different from before, as if she were a charming and mature older sister.
Zuan remained silent for a moment, thinking about everything he had encountered along the way, and a certain guess gradually became clear: "This place must be related to the God of Death. There are rumors in the world that the God of Death was killed by the God of Annihilation, and there are also rumors that He disappeared. But no matter what the case is, He is indeed gone. Could it be here?"
"As expected of the person I chose, congratulations on getting it right." 'Fireworks' lips curled up, her smile both dangerous and beautiful.
"Didn't you say there would be a reward for answering correctly?"
"So what kind of reward do you want?"
"Can you give Isabella back to me?"
“It’s not a wise thing to plead for one woman in front of another,” ’Fireworks’ clicked her tongue. “By the way, why don’t you suspect that Isabella is also me in disguise?”
Thinking of Isabella, Zaun felt a tenderness in his heart: "It's a feeling, and if she really is your incarnation, you wouldn't have split us into two ley lines and sent us to different places, but instead had her by my side so you could control me at any time."
"It's indeed a bit troublesome to disguise that girl, mainly because her magic bag has so many amazing treasures," 'Fireworks' couldn't help but sigh. "Especially that black credit card is really magical; it can work with you to achieve a synergistic effect far greater than the sum of its parts. Just in case, it's best to subdue her first."
He then stared at Zuan and said, "I advise you not to get any ideas. You do have some amazing skills, but without her credit card to pay the price, you'll have a hard time using many of them."
Zaun smiled bitterly. He had actually considered this before, and even thought that he could use Isabella's credit card from time to time to pay for "Key Come".
Unfortunately, although he now has the credit card, Isabella is under his control, and without her consent, he can't use this top-notch tool.
"Is the real fireworks already dead?" Zuan suddenly asked again.
"What, feeling sorry for him?" 'Fireworks' paced around nearby, looking him over with amusement, like a cat playing with a mouse.
"After all, she gave me a wonderful memory. I suppose you used her true personality as the basis for your performance." Zuan couldn't help but feel sad at the thought that the originally charming and lively Yan Hua might have already met with a terrible fate.
"Hmph, it was me who brought you wonderful memories, not her!" 'Fireworks' snorted coldly, seemingly quite dissatisfied.
Anger from the fireworks: +199 +199 +199...
Upon seeing the name displayed in the long-dormant anger meter, Zuan was taken aback: "So you really are called Fireworks?"
'Fireworks' exclaimed in surprise, her eyes filled with shock as she looked at him: "How did you know? Do you have some kind of supernatural ability to see through someone's real name? Wait, I remember you have skills that utilize soul power, and you can also know someone's real name. I seem to have heard of such an ability somewhere before..."
Suddenly, while thinking, he clutched his head, his face showing signs of pain.
Zuan's heart skipped a beat. Did she know the origin of the keyboard system?
Having grown to this level and even encountered powerful beings from various universes, he certainly didn't think that this keyboard system was just one of those cheat codes from online novels in his previous life. He thought it was more likely some kind of magical artifact, and the most advanced kind at that.
