The dark, airtight basement was filled with a suffocating feeling of oppression. Ai Yu leaned weakly against the cold, hard long table, sitting on the floor exhausted.
At this moment, Raphael's sharp and piercing laughter lingered in her ears like a devilish sound.
"Oh my, look at your miserable appearance, you are just a pitiful little bug! It is because of your unreasonable request that you killed the teacher's best friend." Raphael looked down at Ai Yu condescendingly, his eyes flashing with undisguised contempt and disdain.
Ai Yu lowered her eyes silently, her gaze fixed on the ground before her. However, Raphael's bright red high heels continued to sway in her field of vision. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she raised her head and said coldly, "Can you please shut up?"
Raphael didn't seem to take Ai Yu's warning to heart. Her high heels continued to stomp on the ground, making a crisp and loud clacking sound. Then, she leisurely paced around the long table and stood in front of Ai Yu again.
"Little one, have you forgotten what the king said to you?"
Ai Yu bit her lip tightly, and after a moment of silence, she replied in a low voice, "I haven't forgotten...but I really can't understand why we, who are in the lower interface, can only be manipulated by you like toys?
I've always believed in the principle that 'man can conquer nature,' and have used it to comfort myself countless times. However, reality has taught me that there are certain gaps between classes that can never be bridged. You creatures from the higher planes, truly..."
Hearing this, Raphael suddenly burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. The laughter echoed throughout the entire enclosed space, making people's eardrums hurt.
"Hahahaha, well said! Everyone knows that fairness and justice are the truths of the world, but where is absolute fairness in this world? So-called fairness is nothing more than the mercy given by the strong to the weak. Only the cowardly and incompetent will cry and beg for fairness all day long."
Her laughter was full of sarcasm and contempt, as if she was mocking those naive and ignorant people.
Ai Yu bit her lip, clenched her fist, and slammed it hard on the ground, making a dull thud. Her voice trembled with repression:
"Xila isn't even with me. Why don't you believe me? Just because I look normal and don't show any signs of being influenced or controlled by Xila, can you jump to such conclusions?
Isn't this inference too rash and one-sided! There are at least tens of thousands of Moon Envoys on the entire Blue Star. Why don't you ask others?"
Ai Yu knew very well how important Xila was. If Lan Ling really found her, it would lead to unimaginable serious consequences.
However, no matter how hard she tried to explain, the other party remained stubborn and kept pestering her. But it also helped Ai Yu improve her eloquence.
What made her most speechless was that this guy named Raphael was making noise in her mind all the time, disrupting her thoughts and judgment.
"You keep claiming to be a god from a higher dimension, claiming you can wipe out humanity with a single move. And what's the result? You can't even find a single Xila. What qualifications do you have to show off here? Your so-called patience is simply a reflection of your own incompetence, and you can only find comfort in making sarcastic remarks."
"You!" Hearing Ai Yu's merciless accusation, Raphael's face immediately turned red with anger. He stomped the ground several times with his feet in high heels, and then disappeared without a trace in a huff.
After scolding Raphael away, Ai Yu was finally able to have some peace and quiet to sort herself out.
She took out her notebook and placed it between her legs, then slowly opened it, staring at the densely packed words on it. These were her detailed records of each person.
According to Lanling's inference, Xila is very likely hiding among the S-level Moon Envoys.
Among these people, he and Li Yuzhen were the most likely, followed by Mars. Lanling had mentioned that those favored by Xila would experience special changes in their bodies, while using sariye had almost no side effects.
However, Ai Yu did not feel any such changes. For this reason, she contacted Mars privately. Mars told her frankly that he did experience side effects when using Sariel, but outsiders did not know about it.
So, besides them, who else could it be? At least from what we can see now, the Moon Envoys of Xia Country seem to have all been affected by Sariel's side effects to varying degrees.
Ai Yu flipped through the pages of his notebook, thinking secretly in his heart.
Finally, she closed the notebook and frowned.
On the one hand, they have to deal with two beings from a higher plane, on the other hand, they have to deal with two powerful law beasts. In addition, there are a group of moon users who will experience side effects after using sariel, and billions of innocent ordinary people... How can this chess game be solved?
Ai Yu fell into deep thought. She knew that she had to come up with a perfect strategy to resolve this crisis. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.
Is it really as Raphael and Lanling said, that the only way to solve the current dilemma is to get Xila's mercy and help?
If you think about the problem this way, things become a little tricky.
But then again, based on the current situation on Blue Star, two law beasts are expected to appear.
In this case, is there a possibility that these two beasts can kill each other, while the creatures on the blue planet can sit back and watch the fire from the other side of the river?
After all, based on past experience, Xila's attitude towards humans does not have obvious hostility, and to some extent it even helps humans evolve.
At the same time, human strength alone is enough to resist the threats from strange beasts in the starry sky.
Raphael's purpose of coming here this time is just to find Xila, so at least in the short term, she should not easily take action against Lan Xing.
After careful analysis, this plan did seem feasible. However, the various problems that followed were no easier to solve than finding Xila.
First of all, how can she find the two law beasts and establish an effective communication channel with them?
Secondly, how could she skillfully provoke a fight between the two law beasts and drive them to fight each other?
More importantly, now it can only be confirmed that a law beast has escaped from Gohelulang and landed on Blue Star, but no one can be 100% sure that Blue Star itself has successfully bred another law beast.
