It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 405: Complete Acceptance
The celebration lasted until late at night.

Feng Ling took a piece of cake and two bottles of wine to find Ye Zheng.

Usually Ye Zheng always guards the first floor of the central building, but tonight he is on the 30th floor, close to the top of the nest.

There was no elevator, so Feng Ling climbed up in one breath with some effort. She placed the cake and wine in front of Ye Zheng and asked, "Why did you run to such a high place?"

Ye Zheng glanced at her calmly and said, "It's too noisy downstairs."

Feng Ling smiled nonchalantly and asked, "Did you watch the fireworks?"

"I saw it," Ye Zheng paused for a few seconds, looked at the deep night sky and said, "It's pretty nice."

Feng Ling walked to the edge and sat down, with his upper body lying on the white roots from the nest and his lower legs hanging in the air, dangling outside the building.

Neither of them spoke, and they just watched the night view of Qingjiang City quietly.

After a while, Feng Ling said with emotion: "Su Yuqing is really good at tinkering with these ritualistic things~"

"But not everyone likes it." Ye Zheng couldn't help but think of Su Yuqing's proposal ceremony. He frowned slightly and looked at Feng Ling, "Don't you feel awkward?"

"Awkward? Haha~ It seems a little bit awkward," Feng Ling said with a smile, "But it's also very fresh. When I was a kid, I only saw this kind of celebration on TV. I would imagine myself as the protagonist on TV. Now I finally know what it feels like to be the protagonist."

Ye Zheng asked: "Have you never celebrated your birthday since you were a child?"

Feng Ling glanced at her and said, "Have you forgotten? I grew up in an orphanage, and every time I had my birthday, I would celebrate it with a bunch of other children. For example, I was born in March, so in March, the director would choose a date to celebrate the birthdays of all the children born in March."

Ye Zheng was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I hate celebrating my birthday."

"You are such a weird person." Feng Ling adjusted his posture and said to Ye Zheng, "Remember to eat the cake. I also brought some wine."

Ye Zheng turned his head and glanced behind him.

In fact, after her body was deformed, her sense of taste also changed, and she had no interest in human food. But tonight was indeed worth celebrating - Feng Ling returned safely from the maze, which indicated that Qingjiang City, and even the cities around Qingjiang, would usher in a period of relative peace.

Ye Zheng picked up the bottle and asked, "Want to drink together?"

"I can only drink half a bottle with you." Feng Ling sat up and took a bottle of wine from her hand, "I'm not used to this stuff."

Ye Zheng sneered, "Are you not used to drinking it, or do you not know how to drink it?"

"I guess both." Feng Ling clinked the wine bottles with her, and the sound of the collision was particularly crisp in the silent night.

"In the orphanage, smoking and drinking were strictly prohibited. Later, when I went to the sports school, the coach also did not allow me to touch these two things," said Feng Ling.

Ye Zheng raised his head and took two sips, sneering: "You are also a weirdo. You look free and easy, but deep down you abide by some insignificant rules."

"Yeah~" Feng Ling admitted frankly, looking at the night sky outside and said, "Rules make me feel safe. I only want to break them when I'm in a particularly good or bad mood."

Ye Zheng drank his wine and nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way..." Feng Ling raised the corner of his mouth, "I will give you a mysterious gift tomorrow."

Ye Zheng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned dangerous, staring at Feng Ling's face and said, "I hate surprises."

Feng Ling smiled, "What should we do? Should we fight again?"

Ye Zheng: “…………”

"I was just kidding~" Feng Ling stood up, put the remaining half bottle of wine on the ground, and walked downstairs leisurely, "I brought back the statue from the maze, but it's too big to put in, otherwise I would give it to you today."

Ye Zheng opened his eyes wide in surprise and immediately wanted to ask her how she did it.

But Feng Ling had already gone downstairs at a very fast speed. He jumped down several floors in succession with ease, so fast that it even seemed like he was fleeing.

Ye Zheng was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth slowly rose, and he murmured: "What... You didn't think I would be moved to tears, so you ran away out of fear of embarrassment..."

…………

……

The next day, the observer said goodbye to everyone and left Qingjiang City with a temporarily completed observation report. At the same time, two excavators drove into the financial center building.

Su Yuqing marked out an area and the excavators started digging on the left and right. From day to night, they dug out a large pit that was nearly ten meters deep.

Huangfu Miaomiao took out the golden egg, carefully adjusted its direction and position, and aimed it at the big pit.

The base of the statue is connected to a huge rock, like a pile of twisted tree roots with a rocky texture. The shape is irregular and unstable. If it is placed directly on the ground, it will collapse.

So Su Yuqing sent people to dig a pit so that the statue could stand steadily in the pit.

Huangfu Miaomiao held the golden egg with a serious expression and adjusted its position repeatedly. When she felt it was about right, she bravely confirmed its placement.

The ground suddenly shook!

Along with a muffled sound, a maze statue suddenly appeared in the pit, and then the statue rumbled to one side!

Everyone was startled and stepped back quickly!

The overall height of this labyrinth statue is nearly 20 meters. Fortunately, the lower half is in the pit, so it only tilted a little bit before stopping.

"The Leaning Tower of Wind." Feng Ling commented as he stood below.

Su Yuqing looked up and observed for a moment, then said, "Let's fill the bottom with cement tomorrow and fill up all the gaps. It should be more stable."

"The statue works inside the maze, will it work just as well outside the maze?" Huangfu Miaomiao muttered softly. She thought of the Chicken Feet House, which could not be used outside the maze.

Li Qing looked at Ye Zheng and said, "Go and give it a try."

Ye Zheng stared at the smiling face on the statue. Deep down in his heart, he did not feel the joy he had felt when he learned the news last night. Instead, he was filled with confusion and even felt a little worthless.

She's not worth it.

The statue in the maze can only be used once by each person. There is no possibility of restoring it, so it is not worth Feng Ling's trouble.

But saying this kind of thing seems somewhat heartless.

So Ye Zheng remained silent.

She felt like a hopeless terminal cancer patient. Facing the eager gazes of her relatives and friends, she could only pretend to be optimistic and strong and accept all the kindness of her relatives and friends.

Everyone was looking at her.

Ye Zheng didn't dare to meet anyone's gaze, as if those gazes would burn her once touched. She kept staring at the statue.

Take slow, deep breaths.

Then he approached slowly and naturally, and climbed up——

On the tilted stone table, the smiling face smiled at her and said, "Want to play the card drawing game with me? I'm really happy, but I can only draw once."

Her deck of cards is displayed on the stone table.

There are only four: [Seraphim → Knight, Royal Moth, Squirrel]

One Pegasus and one Royal Moth are missing.

Just like the Shadow Tiger and Undead Spider before, the special gene chain carried in the card has been completely integrated into her body and can no longer be eliminated.

Arranged in order of pollution value, she should now have the statue draw a card from the Royal Moth and the Squirrel.

but……

Feng Ling needs a squirrel.

Ye Zheng put the Knight and Royal Moth cards into the card drawing frame with an expressionless face.

"Come on, take my card," she said to Smiley Face.
