The place where Duluso was found was in a volcanic crater. The boiling volcano was still emitting volcanic ash and scorching gases. When Baixi stepped into the volcano, she saw a fire elemental spirit with a very young face inside, almost fused with the flames.
Bai Xi looked at Duluso with some surprise. If it weren't for the contract still being in place and the lingering connection, Bai Xi wouldn't have been able to connect the elf in front of her with the old man from the future.
I don't know why Durouso was so upset that he made himself look like an old man.
"My true name contract is with you."
Bai Xi approached Duruso, but before she could speak, Duruso spoke to her first.
The fire elemental spirit's eyes held a look of inquiry, as if it were trying to guess her origins.
"Yes, that's right, but I didn't expect this to happen."
Bai Xi couldn't deny it, so she could only recount her story in a gentler way, just like she had told the little ghost. However, Duluso was clearly more receptive than the little ghost.
After listening to everything Bai Xi said, he was neither furious nor displeased; he simply looked thoughtful.
"Are you a savior from the future, seeking a way back?"
He asked.
Bai Xi nodded; she couldn't stay in this era forever.
Of course, there is another possibility: she could live from this era all the way to the age of gods. Theoretically, as a god, she could achieve immortality.
However, she did not encounter another version of herself in her time, which means she must have found a way back.
She even left her body behind.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you. I haven't thought of any solutions either."
Duluso shook his head. After listening to Baixi's explanation, he didn't actually dislike Baixi. A person who was willing to give his all to try to save the entire continent should not be ridiculed or hated.
But there's really nothing he can do to help with this.
"That's true. You don't know me well yet, and you don't know what the future holds."
Bai Xi gave a wry smile, her tone filled with helplessness.
"Well, the only person who can solve your problem right now is the Primal Demon, because only he has the power of time and space."
Durouso gave Baishi a clue.
"The primordial demon has fallen in the struggle against Tartarus."
The little ghost witnessed everything and felt sad for a while. It was a pity that a being who could rival the King of Elements died because of a 'disaster'.
So after hearing Durousso's advice, he told Durousso the truth directly.
"Then... there's no other way."
Durusso sighed, as if sympathizing with Bai Xi.
"Even the King of Elements probably can't do anything about this."
He said.
From the moment the Elemental King returned to the Elemental Source Realm with the Elemental Spirits, preparing to watch the continent be swallowed up, Duruso knew that he was helpless and could only use his own power to protect his people.
This choice is perfectly reasonable.
However, from the perspective of other races, it's a bit painful.
However, unlike ordinary elemental spirits, these primordial spirits do not need protection and can move freely across the continent.
"So, would you like to come with me?"
Bai Xi didn't have high hopes to begin with; now she's hoping to get her friends back.
She was mainly worried about one thing.
If the elemental spirits and she traveled from another time but were replaced by existing individuals, and if she returned without bringing the existing individuals with her, would her companions disappear when she returned to the future?
She dared not gamble on the possibility, so she wanted to try her best to bring the elemental spirits back.
"Can."
After hearing her request, Duruso agreed without hesitation, as if he had seen through Baixi's worries.
Bai Xi was slightly taken aback. She thought it would take a long time to win over Duluso, but it turned out to be so easy.
“We now have a real name contract, so you have no reason to lie to me; it won’t do you any good.”
Besides, considering that you're capable of saving the world, you don't seem like the kind of human who would deceive people.
Durusso silently added another sentence in his mind.
In just a few days, Bai Xi successfully recruited two new friends. Of course, the little ghost was essentially a bonus from Luo Yi, and his attitude towards Bai Xi was rather ambiguous.
He was always trying to turn Roy away from Bai Xi.
However, Roy never listened to him. Each time, he would just roll his eyes at the little ghost, turn around and go back to Baixi's side, and mutter to Baixi that the little ghost was so strange.
...
Bai Xi is like a Pokémon trainer who collects Pokémon. Besides receiving prayers from believers every day, she is also on her way to find elemental Pokémon.
She now has a vague guess that the deer spirit, jellyfish, and little green bird are not ordinary elemental spirits. They may have originally been primordial spirits, but due to some accident, they lost their memories and reverted to their original form, which is why they were mistaken for ordinary elemental spirits.
This hypothesis needs to be verified, and Bai Xi needs to go and find them one by one.
However, to Bai Xi's surprise, she thought she had shown enough disgust towards Ulysses that the vampire would no longer come looking for her, but in reality...
Ulysses appeared before her once again.
Just as Bai Xi was about to issue another order to get rid of this guy, Ulysses suddenly said something that left Bai Xi speechless.
"You've been targeted by the undead."
He crossed his arms, his deep, cello-like voice seeming to be telling a poignant love story, but in reality, he was just giving Bai Xi a heads-up.
"What did you say?"
Bai Xi frowned slightly.
In fact, vampires have a very distinctive appearance. In this era, a well-established aristocratic class has not yet emerged, and the set of aristocratic rules that Ulysses particularly liked has not been established either. He is more easygoing than the old monster of the future, but his clothing is still very particular.
He was like an ancient and mysterious handsome man, with a noble and elegant smile on his lips. His natural affability was hard to resist and extremely deceptive.
If Bai Xi hadn't known his true nature, she too would have been momentarily stunned.
“I said, you’ve been targeted by an annoying undead, and she just happened to slip up, which I discovered.”
Ulysses patiently repeated his words to Baixi, staring at her with great interest.
"What undead? Aren't there very few undead left?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Xi felt a sense of mystery about to be cleared up, and immediately pressed for an answer.
