I'm on the Ark, and I started as a succubus.

Talulah watched Zao Lu's figure gradually disappear at the end of the stairs. Ignoring her growing discomfort and the terrifying feeling that wasn't pain but rather an electric current coursing through her body, she took another step to catch up with Zao Lu.

"By the way, Miss Talulah."

When Zao Lu noticed that Talulah had followed her again, her smile became incredibly sweet.

She glanced back at Talulah. "How does it feel? Isn't it great?"

"Would you think that's great?"

Talulah glared at Zao Lu resentfully.

Zao Lu smiled and raised an eyebrow, her tone light and cheerful, "Yes, I will. I'm being honest, I'll say I will, and I'll think it's great!"

Hopeless...

Talulah's internal assessment of Early Dew.

"By the way, Miss Talulah."

Early Dew turned back to Talulah and winked playfully. "Actually, they all knew just now. They all noticed that Talulah had some interesting and good stuff hidden inside her."

Talulah's handsome face flushed even more deeply with a blush.

She chose to remain silent. After getting to know her over this period of time, she realized that Zao Lu was the kind of person who would become more and more aggressive and torment her the more she resisted and struggled.

He's almost exactly like a bastard.

“Hey, Talulah.”

Seeing that Talulah remained silent, Zaoru laughed even more heartily. People can't hide their happiness, you know—their bodies are very honest, her earlobes were so red they were practically bleeding.

"Talulah, imagine if the other leaders in Reunion, like Frostnova, Kingslayer, and Bonecrusher? Do you know how you look now? Wouldn't their beautiful dreams of you shatter completely?"

Talulah didn't want to pay attention to Zao Lu, but the possibility still kept popping into her mind.

For no apparent reason, she felt an almost instinctive thrill. Her soft shoulders trembled, and she felt the sensation was so intense that it almost made her soul take flight.

223 Is this Longmen?

Talulah had just recovered her senses when she followed Zao Lu up the long staircase, and the repeated leg-lifting motion made the feeling even stronger.

No... we can't continue like this...

"Yes, we're almost there, Miss Talulah."

Zao Lu suddenly stopped and instead of continuing up the spiral staircase, she walked to the corridor and pushed open a door.

Fresh air rushed in, carrying the faint fragrance of leaves after the rain.

Come on, here.

Early Dew glanced back at Talulah and gave her a meaningful look before taking the first step out.

Talulah took a deep breath, and as soon as she reached the door, she felt raindrops hitting her face. The cool sensation made her gradually becoming confused consciousness clear up a little.

But in an instant, a look of horror appeared on her face.

In the misty rain, surrounded by plants, the cool air was filled with the faint fragrance of grass and flowers.

Further away, skyscrapers shone with magnificent and colorful neon lights in the rain, and warm light shone through the windows between the buildings.

This is... this is Lungmen's Central Park?

Talulah knew this place very well, she knew it all too well. Before Kosichear brought her to Ursus, she and Aja would come here to play.

In her hazy memory, Wei Yanwu, her father, and that damned Koschche were even friends.

She and A-Jie rarely had the opportunity to go out, and even more rarely had the opportunity to play in a place like this, so it left a very deep impression on them.

Besides Wei Yanwu, her father, and Kosich, there was also an old man selling candy nearby. His daughter would occasionally be there too, and she had a lot of delicious candy on her.

Ah Jie has a big appetite and is always trying to get the old man's daughter to give her her share.

Memories flooded back, leaving Talulah momentarily stunned. It wasn't until the slight increase in outdoor temperature brought an undeniable chill that she shivered slightly, snapping her out of her reverie.

Immediately, I felt an incredibly intense sensation.

Climbing stairs is tiring. After following the morning dew for so long, my body was already hot and sweating. Now, suddenly being in this place with a light rain and a slight chill, I can enjoy the experience of being both hot and cold.

"Ooh... Oh oh oh... Hiss..."

Talulah's rounded shoulders trembled even more violently, and her black-stockinged legs kept turning inward, as if her body was about to give way and she would fall to the ground.

"How are you, Miss Talulah? Aren't you happy to be back in Lungmen?"

Zao Lu revealed a playful smile, "This took a lot of effort. The gods really put in a lot of work to freeze Lungmen in time for this one night."

"Ah."

She tilted her head, her smile instantly fading. "However, it's not for you, that's for sure."

Zao Lu's mood seemed to have inexplicably turned sour, and her usually smiling face now showed more of a resentful expression.

"Hurry up, Talulah."

Her tone turned harsh, "You still want to see Alina, don't you?"

"Ooh hoo~"

Lappland suddenly appeared out of nowhere, gracefully twirling in front of Morning Dew before straightening up, placing her right hand on her shoulder, and bowing slightly. "Good evening, Ms. Morning Dew."

Good evening~

Early Dew responded with a curt reply.

She glanced at Lappland, whose long hair and clothes were soaked through, and asked, "Aren't you going to use an umbrella?"

Early Dew was a little unsure how to get along with Lappland. She always felt that this usually very polite and elegant Rupert had a crazy side... Well, actually, she just couldn't tease or play with him, so she was a little unhappy.

'You'd better listen to Zao Lu, or the consequences will be severe.'

A strange little thought had unknowingly grown from a small seed in Zao Lu's heart into a towering tree.

In Zao Lu's heart, these guys who came later should all be afraid of her, or at the very least, they should be like W and Tianhuo, hooking up with her and going to other people's places together.

For example, those films that were withheld, the perfumer, Melantha and the others.

These films are really fun to tease.

Born into a wealthy family, Zao Lu has always had a slightly mischievous possessiveness, a little quirk from the Chernobog nobility. Logically, it shouldn't have been a problem, and she would have gradually changed it sooner or later...maybe? If she hadn't gone to Rhodes Island, she might have remained just a slightly mischievous young lady.

But ever since she started serving Bai Chen, under his intentional or unintentional guidance, she has become more and more like a wicked woman who enjoys playing pranks on others.

Since she couldn't tease Lappland, and Lappland didn't join her in bullying others, this made Zao Lu a little unhappy.

"Thank you for your concern, but I actually prefer getting soaked in the rain~"

Lappland put her hands behind her back, turned her body to look at Talulah, "Ha~ Another newbie? Was she captured? Hmm, you can tell from her face that she's an unlucky guy who was captured."

She pursed her lips, then suddenly burst into laughter, "Hey, you cold-hearted Vaiva, once you're here you'd better listen to Sister Zao Lu~ Otherwise, hmph, Sister Zao Lu is very good at dealing with people."

Talulah did not respond.

"It's because they're disobedient and naughty."

Early Dew felt that Lappland was deliberately putting her down.

"Oh, I know. Teach them the rules, hahaha. In Syracuse, family heads like to educate newcomers this way too."

This is true.

"Ms. Lappland".

Early Dew used a more mature-sounding form of address, "Is there anything else?"

Hmm~ Let me think!

Lappland swayed from side to side. "By the way, the perfumer seems to have concocted a new concoction that can unilaterally increase a person's land awareness. Maybe... we should let her try it. She seems like a very difficult person to get along with."

Before the dew could utter a sound, Lappland called out to the flower clusters not far away, "Lena~ someone wants to try out your new invention."

"Hmm? Is that so?"

The perfumer poked her head out, holding a bunch of blooming chrysanthemums and scissors. "W, did they lose their bet again?"

"No, no, I'm a newbie, a newbie!"

Lappland's face was full of smiles. She exchanged a glance with Zao Lu, and a smile slowly appeared on Zao Lu's lips as well.

It seems that they do share some common ground.

As she received a bottle of liquid with a subtle, alluring pink hue from the perfumer, Early Dew gave Talulah an even more malicious smile:

"Come on, Miss Talulah. By the way, Lena, how about it?"

"60 times! I can only imitate the effect to this extent; I can't achieve the effects of the potions that Master made."

224 is doomed~

"Mmm~"

The perfumer pouted her cherry lips in dissatisfaction, holding the Secret of Happiness perfume that was now mostly gone, her eyes even turning tearful.

"It's very difficult and troublesome to make, and you won't leave a single bit for yourself."

She looked at Zao Lu and Lappland with a resentful gaze, her cheeks puffing out slightly.

"Relax, relax, it's just something to be used, isn't it?"

With a smile, Zao Lu brought her face close to Talulah's, gazing into her dazed eyes.

"There's no need to drink so much!"

The perfumer almost shouted, "Just a little bit on the beads is enough!"

Okay~

Lappland chuckled and slipped behind the perfumer. "Beautiful Miss Vulpo, don't be angry. How about I treat you to a drink?"

"Don't go."

The perfumer wrinkled her delicate nose and hummed softly.

"What would it take for you to be happy?"

Lappland reached out and hooked her arm around the perfumer's back. "Lena's word is law. I'll try my best to fulfill any request Lena makes~"

The perfumer raised an eyebrow and sighed softly, "Alright, alright, I'm not angry. How about you come with me to prepare the flower petals and get some new materials?"
