Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

"What is it?"

Upon hearing the voice from the wind, Mu Lan, who was already on edge, became even more tense.

The wind was so strange that she had no chance to resist after being pulled into it. What terrified her even more was that she found herself being "melted" by the wind.

Now she's even struggling to cope with "melting".

Then suddenly an unfamiliar voice appeared...

How could Mu Lan not be nervous?

Of course, she had considered that these things might be tests arranged for her by Fei Lian.

But after thinking it over carefully, she realized that even if it was a test, Fei Lian might not save her if she encountered danger, since Fei Lian had already said that contact with the wind would be dangerous.

Of course, the most important thing is...

Mu Lan didn't think that the current situation was something Fei Lian had designed to test her.

Because this thing is too bizarre.

Its power is completely different from that of Fei Lian.

Feilian is the god of wind. Although his power is also wind, it is the wind of heaven and earth, the wind of nature. Although such wind is dangerous when it erupts, it is by no means strange.

But given the current state of affairs... In short, Mu Lan was certain that she could only try to save herself.

Otherwise, she really would have died here.

In order to save ourselves, we need to first understand what that wind and that sound are...

So, Mu Lan forced herself to calm down and waited until she was a little more composed before tentatively responding to the voice from before: "Who are you? Are you the consciousness of this wind entity?"

"Me?" The voice was silent for a moment.

He then said, "I don't know."

"I forgot, but I am not the wind... I was just swept here by the wind..."

The voice abruptly stopped before it could finish speaking, presumably because it didn't know what it was, so it naturally couldn't continue explaining to Mu Lan what it was.

Mu Lan didn't care about this.

Ultimately, her goal was to understand the situation and find a way to save herself as soon as possible.

So, upon hearing that voice, they fell silent...

She quickly continued, "What kind of wind is this?"

"Mysterious style, void style, ethereal style... it seems to have far too many names."

The voice responded to Mu Lan.

Then, the voice continued, "You seem to possess power close to that of the wind, but it is very weak. If nothing unexpected happens, you will soon be completely swallowed up by this mysterious wind."

"And your fate will be worse than mine."

"At least I still have consciousness, but you are too weak, so being devoured will result in complete annihilation of both body and soul."

The voice seemed to know a lot about the mysterious wind, and even mentioned Mu Lan's fate.

The latter felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing this.

But Mu Lan wasn't particularly flustered.

After all, she had anticipated this outcome, so she calmly asked, "So... what exactly is the nature of this mysterious wind, and where does it come from?"

"Given my current situation, how can I escape from here and save myself?"

"Break away?" the voice laughed.

"Forcibly breaking away is impossible, not even for the supreme gods of the surrounding worlds."

"Because of the power level of the mysterious wind..."

"It is beyond your authority."

"However... the mysterious wind itself has no intention of destruction; it's just that it's too powerful, making it impossible for anyone who gets close to it to survive. But if you can take advantage of it..."

"That might allow them to survive."

Go with the flow? Take advantage of the mysterious wind?

Upon hearing this, Mu Lan's mind flashed with inspiration, as if she had instantly grasped some key point.

She was originally mobilizing all her strength to desperately resist the mysterious wind and slow down the speed at which she was "melted," but then she weakened her resistance and began to try to decompose herself and merge into the wind.

The voice seemed to have seen everything.

It was somewhat surprised: "Hmm? You realized the problem so quickly. It seems you have a good understanding."

"As expected of... huh?"

"As expected of you? Who are you again?"

"This feels familiar... I can't quite place it. Perhaps you should tell me your name first?"

"What's your name?"

The voice was clearly not functioning properly, or rather, it had a problem with its memory, which made it recognize Mu Lan but not remember who the other person was, hence its strange behavior.

Mu Lan, equally intrigued by the mysterious voice, responded to it...

"Mu Lan!" she uttered.

Upon hearing this, the voice remained silent for a long time.

"No, that's not the name!" After a long while, it spoke again, but this time it was a denial.

Mu Lan found it all very strange.

So she couldn't help but ask in return, "Then who do you think I should be, and what should my name be? And... after saying all this, who exactly are you?"

"And why are you here?"

"My name is..." The voice was about to answer Mu Lan but then paused, as if it didn't know how to say it. After three seconds, it said, "I can't remember what my name is."

"But you can call me...Li!"

Reason? Mu Lan was stunned, then her mind was filled with thoughts.

He Li came to mind instinctively.

As if possessed, she subconsciously asked, "Is your name... He Li?"

"What's the reason?" The voice seemed stunned as well, and after a long while, it responded again: "I don't know, perhaps... but it seems we are indeed related."

"Although I don't know what the relationship is."

"But my instincts told me that I should tell you something."

"What is it?" Mu Lan asked.

She roughly guessed that the mysterious voice was definitely related to He Li; it could be He Li in the future, or it could be something related to He Li in other circumstances.

As she was pondering, she heard the voice say, "I've forgotten what exactly it was supposed to be."

"But there's one piece of information I still remember..."

After he finished speaking, there was a murmur.

The whispers were obscure, complex, and difficult to understand. Mu Lan couldn't tell what they were, or even whether they were language or just random shouting.

The voice seemed to sense Mu Lan's suspicion, and it didn't expect Mu Lan to understand what it was saying.

It simply said, "Remember that passage."

"Although you can't understand it, I can tell you that those words represent a virtual coordinate..."

"And those coordinates, according to my calculations, would take about three ancient eras to reach from where we are right now, at your current speed."

"An ancient era?" Mu Lan asked, puzzled.

The voice replied, "Hmm... roughly, 144 cycles can be considered an ancient era."

"You need to reach the coordinates I just mentioned."

"It will take 4568400 years!"

Four million years? Mu Lan was stunned.

What kind of coordinates are these? She has now received some of the power from Fei Lian, and her speed is not necessarily weaker than that of ordinary gods, and may even be a few points stronger.

Under such circumstances, it would take her more than four million years to reach the coordinates that Li said she needed to travel?

Mu Lan was shocked by this.

But what shocked her even more was yet to come.

"Three ancient eras are based on the assumption that you maintain full speed without any pauses. If you slow down or stop along the way, the time will be increased."

All I heard was that this was the reason.

Upon hearing this, Mu Lan lost all interest in going to the mysterious coordinates that Li had mentioned.

After all, it was impossible for her to reach it.

However, she couldn't help but ask, "What exactly are these coordinates you're referring to?"

"And who instructed you to deliver this message?"

"Or rather, where do you come from?"

"I don't know..." Li replied, "My intuition tells me that it should be the place where the highest level of power gathers, and I... probably came from there too."

"As for who asked me to deliver the message?"

"It seems... to be myself?"

"I don't understand, but a few words remain vividly in my mind to this day..."

"Living between heaven and earth, we always think of ourselves as unique beings, but in the end, we can always find many individuals who are similar to or the same as us."

"This concept applies to the void as well..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li's voice trailed off.

After Mu Lan had finished processing and understanding what Li said, she realized that the other party had been silent for a long time. She was a little suspicious, so she tentatively prepared to ask something.

But before he could even speak...

The voice of reason rang out: "I drifted through the void, carried by a mysterious wind to this void..."

"Tell me directly that I should continue drifting into the unknown void and become a visible star in the infinite void, but now... I feel that I should probably leave."

After a slight pause, Li continued, "That coordinate, which isn't part of your mission, seems to be just a group announcement..."

"Perhaps in this infinite void..."

"Other individuals were also informed of these coordinates."

"There's no need to deliberately seek it out!"

"Fate is predetermined; if you can reach that coordinate, you will naturally arrive..."

"If you can't, then trying is useless!"

The sound grew fainter and fainter, and Mu Lan felt that the voice called "Li" was truly about to disappear. At the same time, she also sensed something strange about the mysterious wind around her...

It begins to move at high speed!

It is about to leave this void!

This made Mu Lan anxious, after all, she didn't want to be swept away by the mysterious wind to an unknown place...
