The Infinite Journey of a Certain Flame

Thinking of this, Mebius asked the 'Great Demon King', "What should we do next?"

She then received orders to regroup with the others and then engage in ambush.

"Split up? That doesn't seem like your style. Alright."

After receiving the order, Möbius did not choose to disobey.

Remaining in her Infinity Serpent form, she left the palace through the main gate.

Outside the palace was a pitch-black town.

On the dark streets, you can see many Honkai Beasts and zombies.

Without the slightest hesitation, Mebius casually swung his cane and slaughtered them all.

Hehe~

Having easily paved her own way, she continued forward, her body meandering along.

Before long, they successfully arrived at a monastery.

The monastery looked rather dilapidated and didn't even have a sign.

Although it looks somewhat shabby, it is the only monastery in the city.

Mebius arrived here.

She looked up at the towering building, then turned and went inside.

"Hmm? What a rare guest."

The moment she entered the building, an acquaintance appeared and stopped her.

This is a voluptuous woman dressed in gorgeous clothes. She has fair skin, bright eyes, a straight nose, and a curvaceous figure. She is like a work of art, and she also has a pair of captivating eyes.

If we're just talking about looks, this woman can be considered a beauty.

Unlike those beauties, she had a serene smile on her face, and even her tone of voice was pleasant and refreshing.

Is Eden-Aponia inside?

"She's here. What do you need her for?"

"Heh, come in with me, I'll talk to you all together later."

Mebius ignored Eden and continued walking forward.

Seeing her so domineering and direct, Eden guessed that she might have something urgent to attend to, so he didn't say anything more.

The moment Mebius entered the monastery, he was spotted and taken away by Aponia.

"Please stop."

Faced with this aggressive colleague, Aponia, who was praying, slowly spoke.

The tone revealed a hint of estrangement.

meaning.

Chapter Eight: A Wandering Treasure Hunter in the Wilderness is Successfully Captured

The relationship between Ying Jie and others cannot be described as harmonious, as evidenced by the previous conversation between Qian Jie and Mebius.

Even though they have now entered an unknown territory.

They still have no intention of actively cooperating.

Some people are even more likely to turn on those close to them, like Mebius.

Therefore, there's no need to talk about unity, friendship, or mutual help.

Unless that woman is present, nothing can be discussed.

Mebius was somewhat aware of this.

So when Aponia told her to stop, she stopped: "Oh, not welcome?"

Aponia did not answer.

A silent stillness enveloped the place.

Mebius wasn't in a hurry; he simply waited quietly.

She was waiting, waiting for the other person to speak.

Anyway, I have plenty of time in this unknown world.

The atmosphere in the monastery grew somber as both sides fell silent.

Seeing this, Eden realized that if they continued to dawdle, the game of "Red Light, Green Light" would probably never end.

"Aponia, let us in, okay?"

“Eden…”

Aponia's favorability toward Eden far surpasses that of Mebius.

Now that her friend has made the request, she naturally won't ignore it.

"Ok."

Having received permission, the two entered the inner sanctuary of the monastery.

At that moment, Aponia was kneeling in the monastery's hall, praying with her hands clasped together.

She was still wearing that dignified yet revealing nun's habit, her voluptuous figure making her look exceptionally alluring.

Not only that, she has a slender and supple waist and long, straight legs.

Although her face was turned away from the two of them and her features were obscured by the shadows due to the backlighting, her beauty was still undeniable.

At this moment, however, her eyes shone with a faint golden light, making her appear exceptionally sacred.

"Aha~"

Just then, a burst of laughter rang out, attracting the attention of Aponia and Eden.

The two looked up and saw Mebius standing at the entrance, not yet entering the monastery.

She said with a sneer, "What's wrong? You guys have moments of fear too?"

No.

Aponia slowly rose and responded.

"Really? Heh~"

Mebius scoffed dismissively: "It's ridiculous. If I were you, I wouldn't do something so cowardly."

Aponia ignored her, turning away to continue praying: "May we all be safe and sound..."

Eden, holding his wine glass, watched the two converse without intending to interrupt.

Mebius ignored them and went to sit down on the side, closing his eyes to rest.

What she needs now is to find a breakthrough so that her two companions can follow her and stop the small team that is heading this way.

Thus, in this empty hall, a standoff arose between Möbius and Aponia.

During this time, Aponia kept praying, praying for everything to calm down.

Finally, after Mebius grew impatient and Aponia had been praying for almost half an hour, she suddenly said, "What are you doing? Why are you praying?"

"Because...because I can't leave."

Upon hearing Mebius's question, Aponia's tone immediately became hesitant.

Möbius was somewhat surprised to see that she had foreseen the reason for his arrival.

"...I haven't even explained why I came here yet."

"That doesn't prevent me from knowing."

Aponia said so.

She already knew everything when Möbius set off.

That's why they showed a distant attitude.

But she also knew that the predetermined fate could not be changed, and she foresaw that Mebius would inevitably use the Great Demon King's orders as leverage.

"Heh, I don't care if you know or not. What if I told you that this was an order given by that guy himself?"

Aponia was not surprised by Mebius's statement.

She knew everything from the very beginning.

I was already mentally prepared.

However, knowing something does not mean you can resist it.

At least Aponia knew very well that if she then said, "But I need to stay here,"...

Eden, standing to the side, would definitely say, "Aponia, let's get moving, otherwise we won't find a way out of here."

"Hey..."

Everything unfolded almost exactly as Aponia had predicted.

Although she knew clearly what would happen after this attack, she couldn't change it.

"Ok."

Ultimately, under the combined doubles attack of Mebius and Eden, Aponia could only sigh and agree.

With her addition, Mebius felt much more confident about the upcoming battles.

"Hehe, little guinea pigs~ just wait and see."

Maintaining her Infinity Serpent form, she slowly turned around, followed by Eden and Aponia.

The three heroes left the monastery in a grand procession, heading towards where Kiana and the others were.
