Lily tightened the pendant in her little hand.

The small stone seemed to still retain the warmth of a girl's palm.

211. Birds and beasts scatter

"We need to go to Thisted. Stay at the coordinates until the 17th day."

Ai'er with Coco and Yarti with Lily gathered at the hotel.

The sleeping Lily was lying comfortably on the sofa. Coco was fiddling with Lily's little body at will, and looked at Lily's uncomfortable expression with an expressionless face after her face was pinched while she was sleeping.

"Oh, are you leaving soon?"

Unexpectedly. The person who seemed most surprised was An Ling who was standing beside him.

"The location of the next anomaly will be in that place. We have to look for clues."

"...Isn't there any here?" An Ling thought silently, and then retracted her head: "...I thought I would stay here until... the end..."

Ai'er and Yaerti both looked at the human cub strangely.

But seeing that the other party had no intention of explaining further, the two continued their conversation.

"...So this is where the mistake was made." Yarti said, "Sure enough, forming an alliance with you is the right choice. But...this blind spot is almost non-existent in the eyes of those beings who are far enough away."

"You mean... if they are the ones left over from the last war of gods, they will definitely take this change into consideration after experiencing the update and iteration of the transmission system..."

"...It is undeniable that someone may have known the beginning of the clue before us. Not only the vampire I met before, but also the angels..."

"Can't wait any longer."

Get your carriage ready. It will take only half a day to reach Thisted.

On the way, Ai'er suddenly remembered something. She turned around and asked:

"By the way. Lily followed you, so nothing should have happened, right?"

"What happened, you mean?"

"Like running around or something."

Yarti paused:

"...No, nothing happened."

"Really?"

"Well, Lily is very well behaved."

"Oh, that's good."

……

Lily woke up and leaned against the edge of the bumpy carriage to look at the sky.

There had been little rain over the past few days - the occasional cloud blocked the sun, but the light was bright.

But I feel pretty good.

Lily put the stone pendant given by the girl in the sun. The surface of the two stones was very smooth, but the shapes were slightly irregular and the sizes were also different.

They were just two ordinary little stones with slightly special colors that I picked up by chance from the ground.

But I don’t know what kind of memories it carries.

"what is this?"

Coco noticed what was in Lily's hand, leaned over with some curiosity, and reached out to grab it.

"Where are you from?" Coco flicked her finger rather disrespectfully.

"A gift from someone else."

"Others? Who?" Coco immediately looked at Lily... Lily was stunned, feeling that Coco's reaction was a little strange, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

As if he cared more about it than Lily herself.

"A girl..."

Coco asked more anxiously, but Lily didn't want to say more.

Lily might be worried that Coco would be angry with her again after hearing that she was running around, but in Coco's opinion, Lily's refusal was even more annoying.

"You just kept it a secret from me..." Coco pulled the stone pendant disrespectfully, and Lily subconsciously snatched it back from Coco, and even carefully put it in her palm.

To prevent it from getting lost, maybe it would be better to use magic to bind it to the body... Should I borrow some magic power from E'er later...

Seeing that she had no way to deal with the little Loli next to her, Coco gritted her teeth and bit Lily's delicate little arm hard.

"Ouch, it hurts..."

"Bear it."

Coco was obviously immune to Lily's tearful appearance, and Lily could only fall asleep mumbling something to herself.

Aww, sometimes it’s really confusing…

……

Lily couldn't understand why Coco was angry. Or rather, she couldn't understand it most of the time.

After arriving at Thisted, we found a house in a nearby village. The five of us lived in the same small house, and unconsciously took turns to watch over Lily... so even if Lily woke up and wanted to run around, there was nothing she could do.

An Ling, on the other hand, was always running around, and most of the time she was nowhere to be seen for the entire day.

Ai'er and Yarti went out, leaving Coco and Lily at home. But Coco was not idle either.

The next day, Lily woke up three times in a row, and each time she saw Coco fiddling with magic spells and coming up to Lily, asking Lily for her comments.

It's to show the results of your practice.

It can be seen that Coco is becoming more and more proficient in using magic.

Complex magic is not needed for the time being, simple rituals can also be powerful.

What is more important for Coco now is speed, agility, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

Without a deep enough understanding and practice of the technique, it is difficult to grasp this point. But if you are proficient enough, it doesn't matter if you use a little routine.

On the last night, Ai'er and Yaerdi both seemed a little depressed.

For several days, the two of them went to the target coordinates to check out the location. The preparations had reached a critical moment.

"Aerti and I thought about it and felt that it would be better for Lily and Coco to stay indoors." Ai'er said, "...it might be dangerous."

If it was just a simple anomaly, we shouldn't be so cautious.

Maybe Ai'er and the others discovered something.

"The ritual prepared in advance has unusual movements." Ai'er said: "If it's not that the anomaly happened in advance...it's very likely that someone, like us, arrived here in advance."

"The village is safe. Those people won't attack humans." Yarti said, "So as long as you don't leave the village, no one will come looking for you."

Lily was stunned, as if she didn't want to be left here by Ai'er.

But Coco pinched Lily's arm at a very timely moment.

"Then we'll listen to Lady Ai'er." Coco said, "She and I will stay in the house."

……

"The previous anomalies all occurred in the early morning... and the timing has become more and more fixed."

Ai'er and Yarti talked as they watched Coco finish her meal and get ready to leave.

The two people from the higher race didn't really need to eat, but they were worried about Lily and Coco who stayed in the house, so they came back to explain things.

After the two of them left, Lily, who stayed in the house with Coco, felt a little lost.

Seeing this scene, Keke felt inexplicably angry: "Don't I have you by my side?"

Of course, Lily wasn't upset because of this.

Although Ai'er and Yaerti tried their best to let Lily stay here, Lily might not think so.

Coco was also on Ai'er's side, so for Lily, having Coco around wasn't a good thing...

Tonight might be an important night, but there was nothing Lily could do but sleep.

But Lily held back and stayed awake.

Coco looked at Lily sitting by the window, her tender feet hanging outside the window sill, not talking to her. She felt inexplicably annoyed.

Bored... Why? Coco herself couldn't explain.

"Hua——" The sound of leaves rustling came from the woods in the distance.

Under the black sky, the fleeing birds and beasts cast silhouettes of their dark wings.

"It's about to begin..." Lily murmured silently, rubbing her eyes.

If Ai'er and the others' guess is correct.

212. Unknown rules

Coco's little ears moved, as if she heard Lily's murmur.

Seeing that Lily had not paid attention to her, Coco, who was a little angry, finally walked behind Lily and pushed her to the window sill:

"Give me, let me."

Lily had no choice but to give up her seat. Coco jumped onto the windowsill and sat next to Lily.

Everyone in the village was asleep, even the livestock were lying quietly.

Above the dark ocean formed by the forest, pairs of birds and beasts' wings are circling.

Then, they fled away like a tide, howling.

Unexpectedly, Coco couldn't understand what they were saying.
