Chapter 349 Extra: If Line - On this day, Roselle enters the Black Emperor's realm again!
(Not related to the main text, no insider information, some Russell jokes)
(Of course, it is related, because there is no suitable point in the following main storyline to start the Roselle branch. It’s just that this method may not be used to save "Old Huang")
(This is just for fun, the last part is really outrageous, so be careful when ordering)
After entering the sea area with no safe passage, the "mysterious queen" Bernadette seemed to have lost her sense of time. If it were not for the accurate wall clock hanging in her captain's room, she would definitely have forgotten how many days she had been in this dangerous area.
The strong winds and heavy rains caused the ships to sometimes fly high and sometimes move sideways, as if heralding the coming of doomsday.
Bernadette watched calmly, waited patiently, and did not interfere too much with the situation of the "Dawn".
After an unknown amount of time, the storm finally subsided.
Just then, some black outlines appeared in the distance.
Bernadette stared at the outlines for a long time until they gradually became clearer as the Dawn approached, outlining a fairly large island.
On the island, huge dark green and almost black trees stand tall, covering the ground and obscuring the mountain peaks.
Although Bernadette could not be sure that this was the original island her father had visited, the intuition of a "master of prophecy" told her that this was most likely the place she was looking for.
As the coastline came into her sight, she pursed her lips, lowered her head, and recited a respectable name:
"An 'odd number' from distant time and space;"
“The boundary between fantasy and reality;”
"The endless possibilities of tampering with everything."
Before she finished speaking, a brisk voice came to her ear:
"I didn't expect that you would recite my name so devoutly at this time."
Bernadette was speechless and could only look at the coast ahead and said:
"Do you have time to go with me next time?"
"Go save Lao Huang? Of course there is no problem."
Star spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he didn't care at all about the fact that Emperor Roselle was contaminated by the "Original Moon".
——That’s right, long before he became a demigod, he had dealt with these old times, gods, and angels more than once, and even clearing pollution was not the first time.
Now that he has reached the level of a demigod and possessed relevant extraordinary abilities, isn’t this even more of a professional match?
Star smiled, and finally looked at the island in the distance with Bernadette, watching it get closer and closer until its outline became clearly visible, covered with layers of primitive trees.
At this time, he opened up the real vision of "Narrator":
In his real vision, the island was shrouded in a faint, distorted black.
But this is only the most superficial situation, which means that this place is marked and occupied by Roselle, the "Black Emperor", the polluted "Black Emperor".
I don’t know if it’s because he already knew the situation inside, but the “narrator” at this moment actually gave a direct description of the situation inside this primitive island, just like a scientific analysis sample:
Please note that the copy ahead is marked with a large number of endangered species. According to the regulations of the "Society for the Protection of Magical Creatures" jointly proposed by you and Klein and others, they contain extremely high scientific research value and need to be properly preserved.
Even if it is not the original island discovered by Emperor Roselle, this place is not simple... Star nodded frequently, seeming to be very satisfied with this mysterious island, and completely ignored the "Abyss" pollution and "Original Moon" ("Fallen Mother Goddess") pollution that need special attention after checking the composition of this mysterious island.
At this time, Bernadette raised her hand and ordered the "Dawn" without crew members to stop near the coast and away from the shore.
At the same time, the sounds of piano, violin, cello, flute and other instruments rang out in the empty cabin, interweaving into a warm and cheerful tune.
As the music echoed, the toast, steak, mashed potatoes, fried mushrooms, etc. on the plates jumped up one after another and danced back into the oven or into the trash can.
Things like red wine bottles and white tablecloths also returned to their original positions, or corked themselves or folded themselves to become neat and tidy.
Then, Bernadette threw out a bright, not-quite-real ball of yarn with her right hand.
The ball of yarn rolled into the void, leaving behind a piece of yarn. Bernadette followed it, wandered through the spirit world, and came to the edge of the nameless island.
Star followed closely behind and also strolled up, thinking about whether he should record and improve this fairy tale magic of "Ariadne's Ball of Yarn" as a convenient "module".
At this time, she put away the ball of thread, and felt that this "fairy tale magic" would lead her into an irresistible dangerous abyss, so she turned to look at Star:
"You don't look scared at all."
"Why don't you lead the way?"
After a pause, Bernadette bit her lip and added:
"This is not an offense, I just think it might be more appropriate for you to do this kind of thing."
It was probably her intuition, but she felt that Star was more familiar with this place than she was.
Obviously, this was his first time here, right? He even let her explore the first half of the journey based on clues, and he clearly said that he had no idea which side of the original island Roselle was on.
It's a bit hateful.
Bernadette felt a little angry for some reason. Perhaps it was because Star had been so busy during this period of time that he didn't pay any attention to her wandering on the sea.
Seeing that Star took a step forward and agreed without hesitation, Bernadette was silent for a moment. After calming down, she took out an illusory hat and put it on her head.
Her figure dressed as a captain then disappeared, leaving no trace.
This is also one of the fairy tale magics from "Mysterious Reappearance", the core of which is a "hat" that can make people invisible.
Then, Bernadette followed a path that seemed to have been cleared by humans and entered a forest of huge trees.
There are no birds singing, no wild animals roaring, and no insects crawling. It is so peaceful that time seems to have stopped, and so silent that it seems as if no living creature exists.
According to Bernadette's understanding, there should be many extraordinary creatures that have become extinct in the outside world, so it must be quite lively under normal circumstances. But now, she felt like she was walking through an empty cemetery, and every giant tree was a tombstone.
If it were those weak-minded Extraordinary People, they would have been tense at this moment, carrying a heavy pressure, and gradually approaching the edge of losing control, but Bernadette's expression did not change at all, as if she had become accustomed to moving forward in danger and weirdness.
Instead of worrying about whether Star would no longer notice her disappearance, Bernadette was a little unsure of Star's current situation:
"Are you okay? Why can't I see you?"
"Nothing. It's probably because it has become a little 'empty' under the influence of the Beyonder ability. But there's no need to worry about this 'invisibility' effect. Since I think it can be used, its negative effects won't be that great."
Star was in a state similar to "psychological invisibility" that made people unnoticed, and explained to Bernadette.
After all, as we have observed before, the wilderness here is a great "resort", but it cannot be destroyed at all.
After seeing Bernadette nod slightly to show that she understood, Star asked in return:
"You seem to have some humanity left over now? Is this for the purpose of meeting Old Huang?"
Bernadette didn't know how to answer this question, so she could only answer:
"Before I set off, I experienced a lot more 'empathy' in the area you manage, as you said, and also experienced other aspects of human nature that I couldn't feel before..."
"In short, even if I don't need an anchor, my condition is much more stable than before." Walking here quietly, although they still didn't see any living creatures, and didn't even feel the existence of the wind, there was no doubt that Bernadette and Star did not feel any discomfort at this moment. On the contrary, they talked about their gains with a little ease.
Suddenly, the view before them opened up as the huge trees in front of them became sparse.
Bernadette did not feel any joy at all. Instead, she slowed down her pace, raised her hand and touched it to her forehead.
A pair of eyelash-less, extremely cold, and almost transparent eyes immediately appeared in front of her.
Then, this pair of "eyes of mystery" will be held by invisible hands and placed on the face of a transparent person.
At this time, Star dismissed the "invisible" servant and said to Bernadette:
"Be careful, here, 'invisible servants' are not 'invisible'."
"Before, you didn't dare to peek into the 'fate' shrouded by the power beyond the sequence. Do you dare to do so now?"
Seeing Bernadette realize her mistake, Star finally nodded and said:
"In fact, we have another way to see your father. After all, there are many creatures ahead that are worth protecting. It would be bad if we hurt the flowers and plants."
"For example?" Bernadette was used to the "nonsense" in Star's words and asked directly.
"Let him come to see us."
Star calmly stated this seemingly extremely unreasonable method.
This is a place polluted by various things such as the "Abyss", the "Black Emperor" and the "Fallen Mother Goddess".
Through the "narration", he already knows:
Pale corpses were placed one after another among the trees in front, and skulls, rotten corpses and other things were hanging from many branches.
Some of them were giant dragons, some were bird-like creatures, some had eight legs, and some were themselves bizarre giant trees, completely filling up the gaps in the forest.
However, in the next second, some dead creatures could stand up at any time.
Those creatures that had already died each determined their own directions and left the cemetery from different places.
Here, the end of death does not lead to eternal sleep, but to a new beginning!
Moreover, this is not the kind of "resurrection" that the "Necromancer" summons from zombies and skeletons, but a "rebirth" with a certain will and vitality.
The underlying rules of the world are distorted and chaotic here? In addition, there seems to be a bit of mystery about the resurrection of the "Black Emperor"... However, the state of those dead who have been reborn is not quite right, and they are closer to zombies.
For the time being, Star didn't want to create any more trouble before he was absolutely sure.
"What to do?"
Bernadette was very confused when she said this.
"Do as I say."
Star took a step closer, walked slowly towards her with confidence and deep eyes, and began to explain his plan in a low voice, telling Bernadette all his plans.
The details made Bernadette blush and she couldn't help but let out a cry.
"How could you do that?"
"But this method can allow him to regain consciousness in a very short time after being resurrected."
Star shook his head amusedly:
"I don't want to propose this plan if you don't want it."
"Dear Bernadette, you don't want your father Roselle to not be able to be resurrected, do you?"
Star's voice dropped even lower now, filled with a peculiar sense of seduction.
Under the special dim light on the island, Bernadette's eyes were filled with ripples. She felt both uneasy and expectant about the upcoming action.
In the dim light of conspiracy, Bernadette nodded, her expression showing a hint of nervousness, but more of a firm trust in Star's words.
"Well, if that's any better, I guess I'd love to."
Isn't this what you expected... Bernadette bit her teeth lightly and warned herself in her heart.
Even when she heard the plan, Bernadette couldn't help but clench her hands.
But if this can make my father regain consciousness the moment he is resurrected, it should be possible to do the same with Star, right?
Bernadette was wavering in her heart, and finally a blush appeared on her face, her heart beat faster, and she took a deep breath.
At this moment, she was convinced by Sta and felt that Sta was right. Although the method might be a bit extreme, it was indeed the most effective.
……
Soon after.
"I...I'm pregnant?"
"No, I didn't do anything."
"Well, let's abort the fetus first."
When everything was ready, Bernadette glared at Star shyly, and then proceeded according to the plan:
"Dad...Dad..."
Her voice was trembling, as if she was asking Russell for help, or as if she was just being coquettish.
After all, after saying this, Bernadette seemed to have lost all her strength. She lay on the ground like a peeled, fresh and juicy fruit, allowing Star opposite to deal with her.
But at this moment, the entire primeval forest "came alive"!
Looking at the densely packed trees that almost blocked out the sky, if someone were here, they would definitely feel like the end of the world is coming and everything will be covered by forests.
However, it did not affect the two people in the middle at all. Star even built such a "channel" specifically for Bernadette.
Plop, plop, accompanied by the "sound of tree thrusting" that gets faster and faster.
On this day, Roselle entered the Black Emperor's realm again!
Small theater:
Rossel: I say, even if it was just to wake me up, you wouldn't have to go to such lengths to put on such a show, right?
Star (haha): Didn’t I learn it from you? Besides, I haven’t really done it yet.
Roselle: I really don’t know whether I should say that it’s a good thing.
