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

"Oh my god?!"

She bit her lip hard and covered her mouth with her hand, trying her best to avoid making a sound, but strange, plaintive moans still escaped through her fingers.

"Hiss... What, what is this?"

Lin Yuxia breathed softly, her pink eyes glistening with tears.

She tried to curl up with her legs together to relieve the strange symptoms, but the feeling only intensified instantly.

It was so intense that she almost fell headfirst to the ground, so intense that she couldn't think of anything.

"Alas... what, what is this?"

Lin Yuxia hugged herself with one arm, her delicate brows furrowed in anguish, and she leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.

Only when that feeling, which seemed to burst forth from the depths of her soul, spread along her spine and throughout her body, and then penetrated deep into her body, faded away, did she reopen her blurred vision and stare blankly at the high ceiling.

The dome is too high, ridiculously high. Such a wasteful structure should not be on a land-based warship.

Moreover, it opened up, just like a skylight.

Outside the huge glass window is a vast, starry sky.

It was as dazzling as the starry sky seen in the wilderness on a summer day.

No, they seemed closer, so close that they appeared to be flowing right outside the 'landship'.

"Miss Kingska's concert is about to start, are you going to go too?"

"Of course, it is said that the Primarch also appreciates Miss Ginska's performance."

"Were you allowed to go down and visit? The artists who were allowed to go down to see that alien planet are now trying their best to depict what they saw."

Lin Yuxia was drawn by the sound of the conversation and quickly hid behind a pillar, casting her gaze toward the source of the sound.

Then, she was horrified to discover that the person was actually right next to her; as the blonde woman in the purple dress passed by, her shoulder almost brushed against her nose.

They were very tall and beautiful, but they didn't show any racial characteristics, as if they weren't... huh?!

Ancient people?

What about those ancient books that only briefly mentioned fragments of humankind?

How could that be...

Lin Yuxia suddenly stood up, "Hey, you guys..."

A figure passed by her, piercing straight through her shoulder.

She was so tall it was unbelievable, nearly three meters tall, that it looked like she could barely reach his waist even if she jumped.

Nobody noticed her.

She was surrounded by people, but she seemed to have become an invisible ghost, and everyone ignored her.

"What exactly is going on?"

Lin Yuxia turned her head to look at her side and was surprised to find that her position had changed again. She didn't know when she had arrived in the middle of a passageway that was so spacious it was unbelievable.

Occasionally, one could see tall warriors, some wearing only purple robes, while others wore magnificent purple heavy armor.

They gave off a very different vibe, seemingly completely different from the shorter people we saw here.

Lin Yuxia endured the discomfort that seemed to swell and numb in her body, as well as an extreme emptiness, and stood still to observe and listen to the conversations of the people walking, working, and talking on the land-based ship.

I gradually gained a completely new understanding of my situation.

She is no longer at Lungmen Port.

She was aboard a strange landship called 'Emperor's Pride,' where the people belonged to the Third Legion, led by someone called the Primarch? A strange title…

But when people here mention this strange title, their expressions and tone reveal extreme respect and admiration.

Anyway, under the leadership of Primarch Vograim, they are on the 28th Expedition. They recently defeated another race and are now planning to go somewhere else.

The landship is home to many artists—painters, stone sculptors, musicians—and they seem to be among the best in Terra. At least, the one named 'Kinska' is indeed one of the best composers and musicians in Terra.

It did sound like a name from Victoria's side, but she had never heard of it before. A composer and performer known throughout Terra? If it really was, she shouldn't be unfamiliar with him.

Moreover, the people here seem to have a special longing for the name 'Terra,' as if that wretched place is some kind of extraordinary existence.

Terra is terrible.

She had no idea what was so captivating about that land that made her yearn for it.

After observing for a period of time, Lin Yuxia became certain of one thing: the people here could not sense her presence.

She truly was an almost ghostly presence.

The only good news is that the strange discomfort has lessened.

There was no discomfort or torment to the point where she could barely move her fingers, but the feeling lingered, like an itch tickling her heart.

She could never ignore their existence.

"call--"

Lin Yuxia calmed herself down and started walking down the aisle again, following the crowd, intending to see if the piece played by the so-called Miss Kinska was as good as she had been boasting about.

But soon, she was drawn to other things.

The noble ladies and wealthy young ladies who previously held a party on the land-based ship!

She was surprised to see them here. They were gathered in the Landship Leisure and Entertainment Bar, having a wild party. They were laughing wildly on the bar stage, randomly banging and playing their instruments, making a lot of noise and shrill, shrill sounds as they cheered and jumped for joy.

Perhaps none of that matters. What matters is that this group of creatures with bear ears, horns, and tails has somehow managed to mingle among the [human]-looking people here, laughing and drinking.

They were able to contact the people on the strange landship, unlike her ghostly state!

241 It's the little mouse's turn!

Lin Yuxia stared at the wealthy and noble ladies for a while, and then suddenly felt a strong sense of unease.

No, those aren't the rich and noble young ladies from Lungmen or Chernobog.

No, no...who are they?

After this thought popped into her mind, Lin Yuxia was startled to find that the scenery in front of her had become hazy and dreamlike again, as if everything was shrouded in a bewitching purple-pink mist.

The unusual musky aroma was almost overwhelmingly strong; when inhaled, it felt as if it had solidified into a viscous gel.

It's so hot!

It's so cold!

"Waaah!"

Lin Yuxia's pale pink eyes suddenly widened.

She felt her sensory acuity rapidly increasing; any tiny stimulus on her body seemed to resonate and surge amplify countless times.

Those subtle stimuli that were previously almost imperceptible now climb up the spine to the brain, forming a tidal wave in the mind.

No, what is this?

My brain, my brain feels like it's going to break down!

Unable to withstand the intense stimulation, Lin Yuxia could only clench her lips tightly and support herself with her fists for a while before opening her mouth and letting out an almost hysterical scream of pain.

"Oh dear, our little mouse is lost."

Early Dew appeared behind Lin Yuxia without her noticing, reaching out to pat her back. "This isn't a place for you."

The intense sensory stimulation that almost melted my nerves and destroyed my consciousness was relieved, and all discomfort was rapidly fading away.

In a daze, Lin Yuxia's gaze swept over the Longmen and Chernobog noble ladies in the bar, who were drinking and making merry with people who looked like ancient humans.

nobody.

There really is no one.

They were a group of deformed monsters.

Although they still retained human-shaped faces, their skin and features even appeared more refined.

But she was certain that they were monsters, or demon-like beings.

Her waist was so slender that it seemed to be nothing but skin and bones. Her almost skeletal limbs were draped with gorgeous purple silk, and her body was piled with all kinds of dazzling jewels. Her legs were twisted and deformed into something resembling upright scythes. The tongue protruding from her beautiful lips looked like that of an anteater or a frog, but it was covered with sharp barbs.

That thing could never be human!

"Eek, I've already told you, this isn't a place for you~"

Zao Lu pinched Lin Yuxia's face and covered her eyes with her hands. "Come on, little mouse, come back with your sister."

Suddenly everything went black, followed by a strong feeling of falling. When a sliver of light shone through the gaps in the fingers of the pale, delicate hand that had been blocking her view, Lin Yuxia shook her head vigorously, freeing herself from the hand that had been obscuring her eyes.

Bright, dazzling lights, and a thick, soft carpet underfoot—

She returned to the venue where the banquet was held.

However, all the noble ladies from Lungmen and Chernobog who had originally gathered here had disappeared.

The dazzling array of dishes and countless pastries were arranged neatly, without any sign of being disturbed.

The only thing that stood out was the tall glass on the table, and the faint lip print on it illuminated by the crystal chandelier, which proved that there were indeed many wealthy and noble beast-eared girls from Lungmen and Chernobog here just now, but now they were nowhere to be found.

Perhaps they found the food here too low-end, so they went elsewhere to enjoy themselves.

Lin Yuxia blinked, a look of confusion and lingering fear on her face.

"Oh my god, I think I just saw something strange. Am I possessed?"

She patted her chest with one hand and slowly reached for the dagger with the other, looking at Zao Lu with a mixture of confusion and lingering fear on her face.

“Miss Morning Dew, where are the noble ladies who were here just now? Where did they go? My friends were inside too; we made plans to go together…”

Zao Lu looked at her with a gentle smile.

Lin Yuxia suddenly drew out a spell unit and activated Originium Arts.

There's definitely something wrong with the woman in front of me.

The imagined spells and glass blades could not be activated.

"Oh dear~ Miss Lin Yuxia isn't well-behaved at all~"

Zao Lu pursed her cherry lips and shook her head at her with a helpless expression, "Of all you newcomers, only the one called Kong Xiaomei is well-behaved. The rest of you are all naughty."
