In the darkness, tiny specks of eerie blue flickered faintly, like instruments glowing in a science fiction movie.
cluster--
The bright shadowless lamps automatically turned on after the group entered, but Meng Yuan's lips twitched at the sight before her.
"Well……"
On the dilapidated floor tiles were tables, chairs, benches, and research equipment such as microscopes that looked like they came from the last century.
The most prominent items are two rows of glass bookshelves, crammed full of books and videotapes.
However, there were a few modern bookshelves filled with file folders.
The underground laboratory, steeped in the atmosphere of a bygone era, is incongruously furnished with several modern artifacts and a shadowless lamp, making it seem strange no matter how you look at it.
"This... they're so poor they don't even have the money to renovate?"
When the two women's gazes fell on the bookshelf full of file folders, Mengyuan's eyes immediately lit up.
"Found it!"
Mengyuan hurriedly pulled Mengyuan along and ran to the bookshelf, using magic to unlock it and reveal a stack of file folders inside.
As for the white Ragdoll cat, they simply left it aside.
"Let me look... I've got it!"
Mengyuan found the file folders in the "Record Abilities" section, took them all out, and placed them on the table next to her.
"Sister, let's search. We must find out how I came to be. I absolutely do not believe that I am a product of superpowers."
Her eyes were full of stubbornness. She opened a file folder and began to notice.
Mengyuan, standing beside her, looked at her younger sister, a determined glint flashing in her gloomy eyes, and began to investigate as well.
'【Skeleton】High-risk ability; generates and controls skeletons, and also has some control over skeletons not generated by the user. Possesses immense potential and has balanced attributes.'
【Soul Stealing】Extremely High Danger Level! The person who died by your hand will stay by your side permanently as a ghost, retaining all their memories and abilities from their previous life, and can exert up to 90% of their former strength.
It's currently unknown whether it's possible to forcibly control... becoming one's own spirit, as if it requires the consent of the soul.
"Meow."
The Ragdoll cat took small steps to the two women's side, its little mouth agape as it looked at the file folder they were flipping through.
"Go play somewhere else, little kitty, and stop making trouble."
Mengyuan, who was engrossed in reading the documents, gently nudged the Ragdoll cat. The cat glanced at the documents a few more times before jumping away and landing on Trako.
The Ragdoll cat sat on the statue-like head of the Terraco, its fluffy tail swaying slightly.
His gaze swept across every corner of the room like a camera.
What no one noticed was that a miniature camera was embedded in its perpetually open mouth, recording everything it saw.
Her small body jumped down again and explored the entire room, leaving no document unchecked.
Although Hera couldn't take it out to examine its contents closely, that was enough; Thoth simply wanted to know what they were researching.
However, these materials don't seem to be anything special; they're just confirmed and unconfirmed information on superpowers and alien species, which isn't what Thoth wants.
Its big, round eyes carefully observed every detail, while its brain constantly searched for any information in Trako's mind.
Finally, Hera's gaze fell upon an unremarkable old table.
The fluffy Ragdoll cat leaped onto the table, its little paws scratching incessantly at the bottom.
There was a click!
As if a switch had been flipped by a kitten, a brick resembling a doorknob suddenly protruded from the dilapidated wall.
The two women, who were frantically reading the documents, suddenly shuddered and looked over warily.
They looked at the protruding bricks, then at the cat lying on the table, its paws still gripping the bottom of the table.
Meow~
The Ragdoll cat immediately lay down on the table and wriggled its body affectionately, like an innocent little kitten playing.
"Phew...that scared me to death."
Mengyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then her gaze fell on the protruding brick. "By the way, what's this? A secret room?"
She picked up the magic wand from the table, pointed the gem at the brick, and said, "Let me see if there's any danger."
As the gem on the magic wand shimmered slightly, Mengyuan's expression turned to surprise.
"A material that blocks mental energy? I'm already at the 'Ten Thousand Stars' level, how could I possibly block it!"
There must be something wrong!
She strode forward and, under Hera's watchful gaze, arrived in front of the brick.
Looking at the bricks in front of him, he didn't rush to do anything. Instead, he turned around and cast a spell on Dream Wish behind him.
"Guardian Array!"
A magic circle shimmering with strange light rose from beneath the girl's feet, and an invisible shield firmly protected her.
Mengyuan thought for a moment and then placed a protective magic circle around the other two people and the ragdoll cat.
Hera tilted her head back to observe the magic circle protecting her, and stuck out her tongue to lick it, trying to act like a normal cat.
It felt like the tongue was licking solidified air; even though it was just a light touch, it was clear that most adults wouldn't be able to break through that barrier easily.
It seems to be to prevent himself from running around and getting into danger.
After doing all this, Mengyuan checked it several times, and after confirming that everything was correct, she slowly reached for the brick in front of her.
His chest rose and fell slightly, he took two deep breaths, gripped the brick tightly, and pulled hard.
Whoosh—
In an instant, a chilling gust of air blew straight through to the bone, nearly blowing the girl's magic hat off.
When Mengyuan slowly opened her eyes, the scene before her caused her pupils to contract sharply.
"What...what the heck is this?"
