They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 456 Parachute Landing in Janusapolis
Xi Lian broke through the purple light band of destruction, thus opening the path for Dan Lei to enter Onfaros.

So, seeing the smug Xi Lian, Dan Lei temporarily suppressed his doubts, reached out and patted her little head, and smiled.

"Well done, well done, Xi Lian is really amazing."

Seeing Dan Lei "praising" her like this, Xi Lian puffed out her cheeks slightly and protested.

"I'm not a child anymore, Danlei, don't use that childish way of coaxing me~ Praise me more!"

Faced with Xi Lian's protest, Dan Lei could only say, isn't asking for praise just childish behavior?

However, while he thought about it, in practice, Dan Lei inputted the information about a bow from his memory into Immortal One, and then used his void ability to directly recreate it in his hand.

After handing the bow to Xi Lian, Dan Lei smiled.
"I think a bow is more suitable for you in combat."

Xi Lian took the bow, gestured as if drawing the string, and said happily.

Is this a gift for me?

What a beautiful bow!

"But I don't know how to shoot arrows. Danlei, can you teach me?"

Dan Lei naturally wouldn't refuse Xi Lian's request.

In terms of archery skills, Danlei is definitely not as good as those professional bow masters.

However, if you only need to aim accurately, Danlei has a lot of experience.

Echoing Intertwined: Draw the bow and wait. Dan Lei uses Echoing Intertwined quite often. He has used this move to shoot Mirror Stream, Illusion, and Polka Kakamo, making them feel "ecstatic".

So, Dan Lei replied with a smile.

“Okay, once we’re in Onphalos and settled in, I’ll definitely teach you.”

Seeing that Dan Lei agreed, Xi Lian smiled and put away her bow and arrows. She then took Dan Lei's hand and walked towards the Gate of Memories, saying as they went.
"Then it's settled. Let's go."

I don't remember what kind of world was behind the door.

But I believe that with your strength, Danlei, you can definitely turn Onpharos into a gentle world.

Seeing Xi Lian's enthusiasm, Dan Lei cooperated and was pulled along by her.

However, when the two arrived at the Gate of Memories, Dan Lei suddenly became alert.

The next second, six red jellyfish suddenly appeared in front of them, their slender tentacles reaching out to grab Dan Lei and Xi Lian.

The six red jellyfish appeared without warning; Dan Lei had no idea of ​​their presence before they attacked.

Dan Lei would not take direct attacks from beings that he could not perceive at all.

He directly recalled Xi Lian into the Holy Grail space, and his body was engulfed in the [Fire Emperor] Source Fire, which is specifically designed to attack memory matter. Dan Lei jumped back, temporarily moving away from the Gate of Memories.

These red jellyfish were also made of memory matter, and the few that came into contact with the [Fire Emperor] source fire were instantly burned to ashes.

Moreover, their movement speed did not seem fast, and they did not pursue Danlei after he created some distance.

However, the jellyfish immediately disappeared again, and Danlei lost his lock on them instantly.

Seeing this, Dan Lei was speechless. The power of destiny that could deceive him was either illusory or mysterious.

However, as long as the power of nothingness attacks, it will inevitably leave a mark in this space composed of memory matter, because the corrosive ability it has is too strong.

These red jellyfish left no trace, clearly indicating they were not products of the power of nothingness.

However, if these red jellyfish are the product of a mysterious fate, then dealing with them will be more troublesome.

Faced with the Void Destiny, as long as it's not cast by an entity of the Yellow Springs level, Dan Lei can use other Destiny powers to counteract it.

But the most disgusting thing about the Mysterious Fate is that no matter how weak the user is, they can hide using the characteristics of the Mysterious Fate, and no one can find them.

Especially in this space composed of memory matter, the mysterious forces are also masters of manipulating memory matter, and this place is their home turf.

Dan Lei really wanted to complain. Wasn't it supposed to be a world where Onfaros's three destinies were intertwined? How come some mysterious forces have also appeared?

Dan Lei didn't believe that the mysterious force attacking him was sent by Lai Gu Shi.

Onpharos was a large-scale experiment by Lycurgus. What scientist would allow a mysterious force to exist in their laboratory?

If any scientist knew that their home was possessed by a mysterious force, they would suspect that their experimental logs had been altered beyond recognition and that their current research contained incorrect answers.

So now we're in a real predicament. We can't locate those red jellyfish, so we can't eliminate them and can only let them sneak up on us.

Although Danlei didn't think these jellyfish could do anything to him, being beaten up one-sidedly was clearly not his style.

Using indiscriminate AOE attacks, it's uncertain whether the red jellyfish will die, but the Gate of Memory will definitely be destroyed.

Therefore, Danlei decided to temporarily avoid the limelight.

There's nothing shameful about retreating when you encounter such a strange enemy.

Danlei's current goal is to enter Onfaros, not to help Laigus clean up the pests in the laboratory.

As for the mysterious forces, Danlei could have waited until he had settled things with the Immortal One virtual machine within Onfaros and established his own base before making any moves.

On his own turf, Danlei still has the ability to avoid being mysteriously harassed.

So, Dan Lei manipulated the [Suihuang] source fire, transforming it into a fire dragon, and circled the memory gate several times, almost touching it, to ensure that there were no hidden red jellyfish near the memory gate.

Then, in the instant the fire dragon dissipated, Dan Lei commanded the Hunter's Fate, a messenger-level being, to possess him. With a flash of golden light, Dan Lei rushed into the Gate of Memory at a speed far exceeding human reaction time.

Dan Lei had already confirmed from the previous battle that although these red jellyfish had excellent camouflage capabilities, their attack and movement speed were obviously lacking. As long as there were no jellyfish near the door, they had no ability to intercept him.

However, what Dan Lei didn't notice was that just as he was about to charge, the March 7th Light Cone stored in his waist pouch emitted a light.

After Dan Lei rushed through the gate, March 7th, dressed in black with dark red eyes, appeared beside the Gate of Memory. She looked at the gate and sighed.

"Oh dear, Danlei still managed to break in."

If he causes trouble inside, my plans will be in jeopardy.

However, his presence can cause unpredictable changes. It seems I need to wait and see how things will unfold.

The scene shifts back to Dan Lei. After rushing through the portal, Dan Lei finds himself transported to the clouds high in the sky.

This was clearly inside Onfaros, and Dan Lei had already noticed the unusual movement of the March 7th Light Cone at his waist.

So Danlei took out the light cone directly.

At this moment, through the light cone's feedback, it was clear that it was reacting to what was below. So Dan Lei decisively passed through the clouds, and then he saw a huge, dilapidated ruin below.

In the game, the timeline inside Onpharos is chaotic, and there is no such thing as a time anchor. When you enter the interior, the time you will appear is purely a matter of luck.

However, through this relic, Danlei can at least confirm that he should not be in the Golden Age or the Conflict Age.

Between these two eras, such a large complex of buildings, even if it's just ruins, must have obvious traces of human activity.

The ruins below, viewed from above, appear almost entirely lifeless, and the creatures that move about within them are all creations of the Black Tide.

So it must be the world of disillusionment now, and the Dawn Machine carried by the Titan of the Negative World, Cephall, is still in operation in the distance.

In other words, before Xing, Danheng, and Bai'e ascended to the Eye of Dawn and Dusk, Saifeier was still alive.

So Danlei decisively descended into the ruins, and then saw the Star Train carriages appear in a cluster of newly damaged building wreckage.

With such a landmark, it becomes clear what this ruin is.

This is the completely ruined Temple of Destiny, Janusapolis.

Moreover, Dan Lei's arrival time should not have been much later than Xing and Dan Heng's.

The fact that the light cone of March 7th landed so precisely at this time clearly shows that it served as a kind of time anchor.

Because Danlei was unaware that March 7th normally descended upon Onfaros in the year 3760 of the Light Calendar during the Chaotic World, he made a slight misjudgment of the light cone of March 7th.

The reason Danlei was able to arrive at the present time so precisely was because the Long Night Moon influenced the Light Cone. In order to prevent Danlei from appearing too early and directly stopping her from appearing in Onpharos, she sent Danlei to the time when the Titan of Time, Oronnis, died.

Yes, Danlei is currently in the time when the Fire Thief has just killed Oronis, and the three little ones, Tibo, Tining, and Tian, ​​are searching for Saffron in Janusapolis.

The light cone of March 7th was actually aimed at Xing, Danheng, Bai'e, and Fengjin, who had been chasing them to the vicinity of Janusapolis.

In the game, before the Fire Thief attacked Tibo, Tinin, and Tinan in the shrine chamber where Oronis was located, the four footsteps Tinin heard were those of the Star Four.

It can only be said that these four people made no attempt to conceal themselves in order to get somewhere, and at the same time, Kratrus, who was also in Janusapolis, was not discovered by Tinin.

Of course, Danlei has not yet been able to fully confirm the timeline.

After inspecting the wreckage, it was determined that it was just a data replica, lacking any of the original Star Train's characteristics, so it lost its appeal.

No wonder there's an IF storyline in the game where Lai Gushi helps repair the car, sends Xing to the scene, and Dan Heng leaves.

This carriage is just a string of data. Lai Gushi doesn't need to know how to repair the Starry Sky Train. He only needs to restore its data to its complete state and then age it.

So, after checking the carriage, Dan Lei planned to go to the Divine Chamber to see if Oronis was still there. If he was, Dan Lei planned to have Xi Lian come out and talk to him to see if he could restore Xi Lian's missing memories.

The process of finding the chamber of worship was not difficult. Although Xi Lian had lost her memory, she could still understand all the text in the Hall of the Three Phases of Destiny.

Moreover, Xi Lian, in her first incarnation, served as a priestess in the Temple of the Three Phases of Destiny. So even though she doesn't remember anything, when Dan Lei is faced with complex terrain and doesn't know which way to go, she can always point out the right direction based on her "feeling".

So, Danlei quickly arrived at the sacred chamber, and then saw three "little tomatoes" shouting on the platform at the end of the road.
"Elonius—are you here—?"

Since Oronis was already dead, there was naturally no reaction in the mist in front of the platform.

However, Dan Lei, with a mischievous grin, walked up behind the three of them and said...

"You can shout into thin air and never get a response."

When Danlei spoke, the three "little tomatoes" were startled. However, after turning around and seeing that it was a person who spoke, although they didn't recognize him, he didn't look like any monster or demon. Tian patted his chest and said...

"You scared me to death! How come you walk so quietly?"

After listening, Tinning commented:

"This aura... is somewhat similar to that of Dan Heng."

Tibbo, who was relatively more rational and mature among the three, asked...
"Hello sir, we are Tibo, Tining, and Tian from Janusapolis."

"May I ask who you are and why you've appeared in Janusapolis, a place teeming with monsters?"

Dan Lei was just about to introduce himself when he suddenly felt a burning gaze coming from the thick fog ahead.

So Danlei walked in front of Tibao, Tining, and Tian, ​​protecting the three of them in the back.
"Although I would love to introduce myself, it seems there is no time now."

Before Dan Lei could finish speaking, the Fire Thief, wearing a black cloak and hood and a fierce mask, burst out of the thick fog, his black greatsword slashing straight at Dan Lei.

Dan Lei responded by summoning his Staff of Preservation and striking the Fire Thief's greatsword with it.

The Fire Thief clearly underestimated Dan Lei's strength. He never expected that his accelerated, charging slash would be countered by Dan Lei, who stood still and sent him flying.

And in the next instant, the staff of protection in Dan Lei's hand grew longer and stabbed the Fire Thief in the abdomen, pushing him back into the thick fog.

Danlei has already shown mercy here.

It's not hard to guess that the Fire Thief is Bai E; he must have a secret, and we can't kill him before it's revealed.

Otherwise, Dan Lei would have directly used the Immortal Slaughtering Sword when fighting the Fire Thief.

It's important to know that the other three swords, like the Staff of Preservation in Danlei's hand, were created through memories because Danlei's spirit and soul entered Onpharos.

However, the Zhuxian Sword, as a powerful spirit, is one with Dan Lei. It usually stays in Dan Lei's soul to be nurtured, so it can be brought in at full power.

At this moment, the Fire Thief was not at the Envoy level (he would be at that level if he entered the Negative World mode), and absolutely could not withstand a single strike from the Immortal Execution Sword.

After defeating the Fire Thief, Danlei said to the three little ones behind him.

"This guy isn't so easy to defeat, you guys retreat first."

Tibao, Tining, and Tinan, seeing that the stranger in front of them had easily defeated the dangerous black-robed swordsman, temporarily accepted Danlei as one of their own, nodded, and immediately withdrew.

However, the Fire Thief clearly didn't want to let the three little ones go.

Suddenly, more than a dozen phantoms appeared in the air and surrounded Tibao, Tining, and Tinan, who were trying to retreat.

Seeing this, Dan Lei raised his hand and used magic to summon a towering wave. Then, he used the Cloud Chanting Technique to manipulate the wave into a water dragon, instantly shattering the dozen or so illusory figures of the Fire Thief Walkers.

Then, Dan Lei spoke to Xi Lian in the Holy Grail Space.

“Xi Lian, come out and protect Ti Bao, Ti Ning, and Ti An.”

By the way, if someone asks for your name, don't give your real name. Think of another name.

In this world, you might already be dead, and sudden resurrection is hard to explain. It's better to use a pseudonym, or just look like someone else to get by.
