I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 244 Bigeley Wants to Find the Answers Herself
For a moment, Bigeley wondered if she had misheard. She stared at Mary with her bright, ruby-like eyes, but Mary still wore that somewhat sinister doll-like face. Only from the slight movement of her eyes could one discern a hint of smugness, which might be a misperception.
"Just ask him directly! Ask him why he adapted to this world so quickly."

“He said it?” Bigre seemed confused, but Mary nodded.
"That's right, they not only told me how, but also showed me directly."

"..." Bigeley blushed instantly, and wanted to say something, but Mary had already turned her head back:
“Ghidorah is easy to talk to. Just ask him what you want to know. Don’t play riddles with him.”

Seeing that Mary was about to leave, Bige quickly said:
"Since you know, then tell me. Just tell me what price you want."

“No, Ghidorah told me, but he didn’t authorize me to tell anyone else, so I can’t tell you. If you want to know, go ask him yourself.” Mary’s voice remained cold and flat, but Bigeley, who knew her well, immediately knew that this girl was deliberately making things difficult for her!

Although Bigeley had already planned to ask directly, her little scheme had been seen through. Now, she was too proud as a vampire queen to go back. Besides, going there now would obviously mean being with Mary, which would only make her a laughingstock.

"Fine, I won't tell you then. I'll go see for myself!"

Bigeley gritted her teeth, and finally transformed into a small bat, flying out through the intricate network of pipes within the Demon King's castle...

……

"If we're talking about secrets, it should be the village that Mary helped Ghidorah build. That's when the two of them got closer. So if we can show it to her, we should be able to find clues in that village. If we can't get in or get stopped, we can just ask her directly. It's better than me asking her first."

Bigre's thought process reached a closed loop. She flapped her small wings and flew north. As the second-best resident of the Demon King's castle after Dobio, she had practically explored the entire land in nine years. Unlike players who lacked the means to climb mountains or cross seas, she truly knew what lay on the other side of the mountains—

On the other side of the mountain, there was nothingness.

This land is not like the world she originally came from, which is a universe made up of planets. Instead, it is a flat land of only a few hundred thousand square kilometers floating in the void, as if it were directly torn off from another place by some great being.

This unstable state makes one wonder if it might collapse at any moment.

As a top-tier mage, Bige also possesses several spatial spells, such as the summoning spell to summon familiars from another dimension. Theoretically, by modifying the parameters, it is possible to send her back to the world of familiars. Although this is highly uncertain, it is at least better than staying on this sandbox that looks like it could collapse at any moment.

The problem is that her magic is restricted. Not only her, but all the residents of the Demon King's castle have their powers restricted. Physical strength is fine, but spellcasting ability is strictly constrained within a certain framework.

Even though there are no magical elements, as long as the spell is within the framework's limitations, the spell can be cast. However, if the spell exceeds the framework, even by a tiny bit, the spell will undoubtedly fail.

Bigeley also asked others, and whether it was Wolf, who directly used inner magic, Evelyn, who used the power of nature, or Nevin Moon, who wielded the power of shadows, or even Mary, who drew upon the power of resentment to create and control puppets, they were all subject to this limitation. To break through this limitation, everyone was using their own unique methods. Nevin Moon was constantly excavating shadow planes, using abilities that required entering shadow planes, such as Shadow Escape and Shadow Stealth, which were usable within the rules, to fix a temporary shadow plane, and then continuously expand it to create areas where shadow magic could be used at will.

Melo, that silly fish, was trying to gather a marine authority through marine life in order to organize a sacrifice for the god she believed in and obtain the god's help.

Bigeley herself was naturally working on a big plan, but whether it was a clever idea or a clumsy method, it would take a huge amount of time, and nobody knew how long this broken world could hold out.

In the early days, some people did think about uniting to do something big, but the problem was that, apart from the two skeletons and Doppio, everyone else had a different system.

Wolf is a warlock-like being, a mage who controls magical elements; Dobio possesses magical power within him; Neven Muen is a shadow ruler; Evelyn is a ranger who draws upon the power of nature; Mary is a yokai called a "Tsukumogami" who wields a power called "Fear"; and Merlo is a priestess who commands the power of faith. This group of "demon kings" with such different styles is simply unable to unite their powers.

But Ghidorah is different!
Although it lost the ability to transform into its true form (referring to the three-headed dragon Xing Tian) after its arrival, it quickly found a way to utilize its abilities. For example, the single strike that broke through the city gates during the siege was enough to prove that it had broken through the limitations of the template.

Because the template of this world simply does not support that kind of large-scale, high-explosive power.

If we rule out the seemingly impossible possibility that Ghidorah is a native species of this world, the only answer is that the other party has deciphered the rules of this world.

"It must be related to those talismans."

Bigeley thought so, but the talismans of Ghidorah were sent out by them, and they could even plunder a bunch of them from the dungeon every few days. No matter what they said on the surface, they had naturally studied them in private, but the result was the same as when they studied the dungeon mechanism and the hero's resurrection: they had no clue at all.

While Bigeley was pondering, she had already flown over Hidden Village. Looking at the crowd of players below, she thought for a moment and decided not to use her previous signature skin. Instead, she transformed herself and changed into a face that was closer to the human form of Mary and Ghidorah.

She had an oval face, and while her features weren't particularly striking, they were relatively well-proportioned. However, having heard from the heroes that they weren't averse to white hair and red eyes, Bige didn't change her hair color. Instead, she changed into clothing similar to that of the "cultivators" before gracefully heading towards the secluded village.

"Hmph, what do you mean you'll answer if you ask? You two are from the same hometown, of course you're close!"

Bearing her undeniable complaints, Bige crossed the threshold of the secluded village...
