Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Lin Yumo kept her mouth tightly shut.

She felt that Zhou Jieyu's complaint was wrong.

Although the Crimson Demons didn't compensate her for the combat suit, they fed her a lot of experience-boosting food and even helped her fight monsters for free. The value of these services far exceeded that of the combat suit.

Lin Yumo, who had been hanging out with the game for the past few days, had already reached level 124, which propelled her into the top 10,000 of the server-wide level rankings.

"There is still hope."

An Ran glanced into the bag and said.

"what?"

Zhou Jieyu was taken aback.

"I said this combat uniform can still be saved."

"really?"

Zhou Jieyu immediately exclaimed in surprise. No, An Ran said it herself. If she said there was hope, then there must be hope.

There is absolutely no doubt about this.

Zhou Jieyu immediately looked at An Ran expectantly.

An Ran smiled slightly: "The repair cost is 50 energy coins, and since some parts are missing, the material cost will be around 200 million energy coins."

Ok?

Zhou Jieyu's hand holding the bag trembled slightly.

Trembling, he flung the fragments from the bag into the lava by the roadside.

An Ran quickly reminded her, "Be careful. If you accidentally throw the core components into the lava, you'll have to pay at least 300 million energy coins for materials."

"..."

Zhou Jieyu's hand involuntarily reached into the bag.

She suddenly felt like crying.

Yes, she originally thought that An Ran would kindly help her repair her combat uniform for free because of their friendship.

But she was overthinking it.

This is true peace.

If An Ran really fixed it for her for free, then she must be a fake!

She could still afford 250 million energy coins.

"Give!"

Zhou Jieyu handed the fragments of the combat suit along with the energy coins to An Ran.

A second later, An Ran returned the combat uniform to her.

It's already a brand new, undamaged set.

This is all money.

Zhou Jieyu hugged her clothes tightly.

"I'm so miserable, really."

She started complaining quietly again.

"I'm so sick of eating barbecue every day."

"All I can do every day is lie down; if I don't lie down in that spot, it gets so hot it's like it's smoking."

"I didn't want to move, but I had no choice but to go hunting. The monster looked terrifying."

"It's so hard for me. I live in fear every day, afraid that I'll be caught and beaten."

"Phew, thank goodness this isn't reality, otherwise I would have gained ten pounds by now."

An Ran rolled her eyes.

You're complaining when such a good thing happens to you.

If you posted these words on a forum, most players would probably want to grab you and beat you up.

Bah! Shameless scoundrel, die!

There must be quite a few comments like this.

Amidst the noise and commotion, they settled peacefully into Red Maple Fortress.

She lived right next to Zhou Jieyu's residence.

"scholar."

At that moment, the scholar was organizing materials when An Ran suddenly appeared in the room.

The scholar's face changed drastically, but he did not cry out.

What do you want from me?

A very good response.

An Ran figured it out.

Unlike the elderly Crimson Demons, the scholar was a very open-minded person.

"Regarding prophecy."

"Ok?"

"Do you think the overlap in these two prophecies is just a coincidence?" Anran asked.

She had her suspicions for a long time.

Too much of a coincidence doesn't seem like a coincidence.

Moreover, the contents of the prophecy also concerned her.

The Crimson King is likely a being similar to a Celestial.

It must be out of its mind to think of burning down the star path.

This is simply a thankless task that only creates enemies for yourself.

"what do you mean?"

An Ran nodded: "I think this might have been arranged by someone. Considering that the prophecy originally came from the Eternal Star Path, it might have been the work of people from the Eternal Star Path."

The scholar said blankly, "I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by the Eternal Star Path, and I can't offer any opinion on your guess."

"The Eternal Star Road is an extremely powerful force in the outside world, a force that I cannot even look up to. If it were them, it would be very simple for them to accomplish this."

"You mean our ancestors came from the Eternal Star Path?" the scholar exclaimed in surprise.

This has even changed the origins of our race.

An Ran said, "That's not what I meant. With the strength of the Eternal Star Road people, it would be very easy for them to deceive your ancestors. You should be very familiar with that forbidden area, right?"

The scholar nodded.

"Didn't I just tell you that I had a clue? There's something wrong with the sword standing in the middle."

The scholar asked in bewilderment, "Why are you only telling me this?"

"I think that with your personality, you won't stop me; on the contrary, you'll cooperate with my actions."

The library fell silent.

The scholar suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"You outsiders are really something."

The girl who was mistaken for the True Ancestor can be resurrected like the True Ancestor.

The woman before them could easily defeat the Dragon of Calamity.

They're all monsters.

How powerful is the Eternal Star Road, which is even stronger than her?

An Ran continued, "There's something else I need to remind you of. Many people are currently searching for the Crimson Lotus King, which is the planet you're on. Before long, many people stronger than me will arrive here. They have different personalities; some of them enjoy killing. If the Crimson Lotus King doesn't appear by then, the Crimson Demon Clan will be in danger."

The scholar looked up at An Ran.

"You can think I'm just exaggerating."

The scholar shook his head: "No, I believe what you say."

“Very well, in that case, let’s go to the forbidden area together. There are some things that may require your involvement.”

After some time, with the help of the scholars, An Ran returned to the forbidden area without making any noise.

His gaze swept over the coffins, the scholar closed his eyes, and murmured to himself.

Dear ancestors, please calm down. All of this is for the purpose of exploring the truth of history and for a better tomorrow for the Crimson Demon Clan.

An Ran had already walked up to the sword in the fire.

"I'm going to begin."

The scholar's eyes widened.

He suddenly saw two Anrans appear in front of him.

"A doll?"

One of them was completely devoid of life.

An Ran reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword in the fire.

Before she could make any further move, the heart underground lit up again.

This time, however, was different from before; it sent out a message consciously.

Even the scholars standing to the side received that consciousness—

"stop it now!"

The scholar quickly stepped forward.
