After waking up for the third time, An Jing suddenly opened his eyes.

He stood up, stood on the deck, looked up at the planet that happened to be stationary in front of them, and stopped the starship.

An Jing's eyes lit up and he muttered to himself.

"My demon hunter badge is vibrating... there's life on it!"

[The appearance of the starship can refer to the Star Breaker Battleship]

Volume 1: Chapter 153:

An Jing and Mei got off the boat and landed easily with their bodies.

This is a plain and the environment is pretty good, at least the plants grow very lushly.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the boy's expression suddenly froze.

"There's something fucking wrong with this place..."

Mei frowned and looked in the direction the boy was looking with some confusion, not understanding what could have made him so alert.

I saw a giant tree in the distance that penetrated the sky and the earth. It was transparent and its color was pure gold. Its crown covered the sky and blocked out the sun, and its beauty was incomparable.

Even though it is dark now, the golden tree still emits beautiful light without being affected.

She didn't sense any danger from the tree, so she didn't understand why the boy became like this.

"That tree... looks like it's made of gold."

Even she couldn't help but be amazed at the grandeur of the tree, the sight was worthy of admiration.

"yes......"

The boy sighed: "And if I'm not mistaken... the name of that tree might be called the Golden Tree."

"...Have you been here before?"

Mei asked doubtfully.

Although the boy's expression showed a sigh, she seemed to sense some excitement and nostalgia in it.

"I don't know... I can't really explain it. It seems to be a memory from more than a thousand years ago."

An Jing shook his head: "But I'm not sure if this is the place. Let's go and see if we can find someone to ask if the company has been here before."

"Although the result is most likely no."

"how do you know?"

"According to the company's nature, a place like this would more or less be developed into a tourist planet. However, our starship was about to crash into it, but no one came to warn us. The result is self-evident."

Mei nodded thoughtfully, her eyes slightly dimmed, and she turned around.

"There seems to be someone there."

An Jing looked over there.

About a hundred miles away from them, there seemed to be a church. On the broken wall next to a stone pillar, there was a petite figure sitting.

The figure was shrouded in a large wizard's hat and a cloak covered with velvety material that looked like wolf hair. Some white fabric leaked out from underneath it, like a skirt.

"Looks a little familiar..."

An Jing frowned.

The distance is not too far, probably just a few minutes away.

The figure gradually enlarged in the field of vision. It seemed to be a young girl who was waiting for someone.

There was a fire not far from her, although it was extinguished.

Their arrival naturally attracted her attention. The girl's delicate doll-like face turned around and her brows were slightly frowned.

She didn't speak slowly until the boy and the woman walked up to her.

"Outsider...what do you want?"

The company's synesthesia beacon worked faithfully, and Mei and An Jing looked at each other to confirm that they could understand each other.

An Jing first tried to communicate with it using the universal language of the universe.

“We want a stable clock.”

The doll-like girl was silent for a moment.

"Foreign languages...I'm afraid they can't be used here."

Well, that's to be expected.

An Jing spread his hands.

It’s okay, it’s just English, he - uh... damn, it seems like he has really forgotten it all.

What is the word for clock?

Hell, now all he remembers are the 24 letters of the English alphabet.

Oh, and yes and no.

An Jing wondered whether he could express it or not?

He took the knife from the woman beside him and used the scabbard to draw a simple clock on the ground.

The girl looked at the icon on the ground, her brows still furrowed, and asked uncertainly: "You... want to ask about the current time?"

An Jing shook his head.

She lowered her head and thought for a moment.

"You want a clock?"

The young man nodded quickly.

Although this place cannot be contacted with the company, as a second best option, it would be nice to have a clock here.

At least I can keep track of time.

To be honest, if he hadn't been able to travel into Bai Lu's body occasionally, he would not have been able to notice the change of time at all.

He originally thought that only a few days had passed on his side, but when he arrived at Bai Lu's side, almost a year had passed. The young man did not want to rely on the completely uncontrollable possession to record the changes in time.

Who knows when the next possession will come, decades or even hundreds of years?

By then, everything will have changed.

It is better for him to prepare a clock for himself, at least he will have an idea in his mind, so that he will not be unaware when the short-lived fox dies of old age.

“It’s not difficult.”

The girl raised one of her four arms, and a faint blue mist lingered, forming an old and exquisite pocket watch. The second hand could still be seen moving on it, proving that it was working properly.

Although I don't know if it can still remain functional during high-speed space travel.

"A little bit..."

An Jing thought about it.

Forget it, as long as it works.

He nodded, indicating that this was enough.

But the girl was not in a hurry to hand him the pocket watch.

"I'm not the kind of person who gives alms to people who beg... To get it, you need to answer a question for me."

She raised her face, her left eye tightly closed, with several runes engraved on the left half of her face, looking straight at the boy.

An Jing nodded.

"very good."

"You have come here to interfere?"

The boy shook his head.

"Not for interference..."

She seemed to be relieved, and the pocket watch floated up from her palm and floated in front of the young man. He reached out and took it, nodding in greeting.

"In that case, the transaction ends here. I have someone else to wait for, so I won't bother you any more."

An Jing actually wanted to talk to her more to see if he could remember anything else.

However, it was difficult to continue the conversation due to the language barrier, so I simply turned around and left.

Handing the knife to Mei, the boy suddenly asked curiously.

"Since touching the blade will also cause a reaction to your body, then when I scratched the ground with the scabbard just now, did you also feel it?"

The woman shook her head.

"I'm not feeling that feeling..."

She thought about it, and her expression suddenly became a little embarrassed: "It seems that only your hand... can give me the touch..."

"Only my hand...? Is it because I pulled out the knife?"

Mei shook her head, she didn't know either.

"Okay, I'll work on this later."

After An Jing finished speaking, he continued to look at the pocket watch in his hand.

It is now... around 9:20 p.m....

Fortunately, the time scale here is also in 24-hour format.

What a coincidence.

Moreover, he vaguely sensed a mysterious aura from it...very similar to the girl with four hands before.

Forget it, take care of him.

Even if there really was some trick up his sleeve, it wouldn't be enough to kill him.

"Where are we going now?"

"Go see if you can see someone."

Apart from the golden tree, he was probably the only person here that he still had some impression of.

"I remember it was called...what was it called...the Fader?"

The boy scratched his forehead, not being 100% sure for a moment.

"Can you determine the approximate location?"

"No, just stroll around and take it as a walk to relax. Don't you feel refreshed by being down to earth?"

"indeed."

Mei agreed with his point of view, and the two of them strolled on the plain at night.

Although the scenery here is nice, it doesn't seem very welcoming to outsiders.

Along the way, they encountered at least three waves of attacks from passing cavalry. Although they resolved them easily, it was not fun to slaughter creatures that were much weaker than themselves.

But An Jing's luck seems to be pretty good.

Standing on the hillside and looking down.

A fight was happening below, with the gap seemingly too big.

A knight, riding a huge horse, all covered in heavy golden armor, holding a huge halberd and a round shield, rushed towards a human figure that looked extremely weak in comparison.

An Jing whistled and asked Mei to sit down.

"Is that the person you are looking for?"

the woman asked.

"Yes."

"In that case, won't you go down and help?"
