Please be my partner.

Not long after leaving Anna, Mellen came to a tall building, thinking and quietly waiting for the fairy tale reversal to come.

Spike was lying at his feet, gathering his strength, while Little Red Lotus and the mechanical dog were making a lot of noise and fun around him. It actually gave him a feeling of peace and tranquility.

Time passed, and this time the fairy tale reversal did not wait until midnight, but came more than ten minutes before this time point. This is also a manifestation of the strengthening of the fairy tale reversal.

Melen looked down and saw a huge magic vine surging out from the ground. Countless vines extended from its body, constantly hunting all the fairy tale characters it could see.

This scene was extremely bloody and terrifying, but Melen did not think there was anything wrong with it. After all, what the magic vine was showing now was its dark fairy tale side.

Melen lightly jumped in front of the magic vine. When the latter saw Melen, he still showed an inexpressible sense of closeness. He immediately put the corpse of the fairy tale character hanging on the vine in front of Melen, indicating that he could enjoy these delicacies first.

The familiar scene made Melen feel a little amused and helpless. This was the same attitude that Mo Teng had when he saw him yesterday.

This reminded Melen of some reports he had seen in his previous life. After kind-hearted people rescued cats and dogs, these small animals would put mice or picked up food in front of the kind-hearted people. This was actually them sharing their most precious things, which was a sign of extreme intimacy.

Under this kind of video, there are often comments from netizens who like to watch the fun and stir up trouble, such as "If you don't eat a bite in front of them, they will be so sad."

Mellen's purpose of coming here was very simple, which was to confirm the condition of the magic vine. After all, the magic vine tried its best to save him yesterday and guarded him all night afterwards.

Seeing that the magic vine was still alive and kicking, he felt relieved.

Just when Melen was worried about how to reject the magic vine's "enthusiasm"...

"Boom!~Boom!~Boom!~"

Dozens of sounds like meteorites falling to the ground were heard. Melen looked carefully and saw that they were dozens of giant warriors.

Melen suddenly looked up and saw several huge shadows standing at the edge of the clouds above the sky, especially the one in the middle, which was so majestic that it seemed that even the entire sky seemed a little heavier just by standing there.

Faintly, Melen could feel their gazes fixed on him, filled with deep malice.

"Roar!~"

The giants who landed on the ground roared and rushed towards Melen, crushing everything in their way mercilessly.

Without any orders from Mellen, the magic vines, sensing the giant's hostility, immediately wrapped around him, and Spike and Xiao Honglian were naturally not willing to be outdone.

Even the mechanical dog was about to rush forward with its still uncoordinated short legs, but then Mellen grabbed Fate by the scruff of the neck and lifted it up in his hand.

The charge of dozens of giants was naturally easily defeated.

Melen raised his head and calmly looked into the eyes of the being above the clouds.

When the sun shines, the fairy tale reversal ends, and the fairy tale kingdom is refreshed again.

Today is the fifth day.

Chapter 130 Fairy Tale

"This is Anna, a friend of mine. She was accidentally drawn into the forbidden object of the fairy kingdom."

"These are Ada, Yanis, and Yimeng, friends I met in Florence. Although we haven't been together for long, they are all quite reliable people."

Mellen introduced Anna, Ada and the other two to each other.

After the four of them got to know each other a little better, Mellen said to Ada, "I'm sorry, I need to trouble you with something. This should have been my responsibility, but I have something urgent to do, so I can only ask you..."

Before Mellen could even say what he wanted to ask, Anis grumbled, "Another last-minute request?! 'Uncle Hayate,' you really are a busy man!"

When he said the words 'Uncle Jifeng', he deliberately emphasized his tone, looking very dissatisfied.

Melen recalled that he seemed to have said that he had something urgent to do and then left in front of Ada and the other two more than once, and he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

Ada gave them a way out and said, "Merlen, you want us to help you take care of Miss Anna, right? That's not a problem, but you know the situation outside. I'm afraid there are several third-level experts blocking the way, so we can't guarantee anything."

Mellen glanced at Anna and said, "It's okay. If you two go together, maybe you can take care of each other."

This is not empty talk. As a fortune teller, Anna possesses many mysterious methods. In addition, she has also contacted people from the Special Affairs Bureau to rescue her during this period. It is hard to say who will take care of whom at that time.

The only pity is that in addition to the third-level strongman sent by the Special Affairs Bureau to rescue Anna, there are actually two strong men from the Alphabet Legion who are carrying out missions in the Southern Wilderness.

Anna has already made contact with one of them, while the other one does not seem to have been included in the team entering the fairy tale kingdom this time.

There are probably at least four third-level strongmen waiting for them outside. If they can have one more combat force at this time, a lot of danger can be reduced.

The next four people...mainly Anna and Ada, began to discuss how to deal with the people in the outside world after leaving the fairy tale kingdom.

The two quickly listed many practical plans.

For example, winning over the remaining outsiders in the fairy tale kingdom.

Although these outsiders are generally not strong, they are still somewhat useful, and there is no guarantee that there are no hidden strengths among them, or some killer weapons.

For example, you can search for extraordinary items that can be taken out of the fairy tale kingdom to increase your own real-time combat power.

Mellen just listened for a few seconds and then got up and left. He still had a lot of things to do.

Soon, Melen arrived at the Mechanical Castle, and Pinocchio had already prepared refreshments.

Pinocchio took a sip of the tea in his hand and said, "Mr. Mellen, although you have many fairy tale characters supporting you, our strength is still weak. Therefore, we need to gather more strength before the decisive battle."

Then, revealing a hint of frustration, he said, "Unfortunately, there are many powerful fairy tale characters who don't care who becomes king. They just do what they want."

Mellen asked, "Can't we win them over?"

Pinocchio said, "Some may be able to, such as the Snow Queen Elsa. According to the information I have received, she seems to have a good impression of you."

"Queen Elsa possesses legendary power. Snow White once wanted to give the dukedom to Queen Elsa, but she refused."

"In the fairy tale kingdom, there exists a strange Rubik's Cube Mansion. It too possesses legendary power and has spawned many bizarre lives, but it's more like a transcendental object. If there were a king, he could command it, but without one, it would simply follow a predetermined trajectory."

"The hospital you visited earlier is owned by a being that controls viruses. However, he is only interested in curing illnesses and punishing crimes, and doesn't care who is king."

Mellen pondered for a moment and asked, "From what you said, it seems that the title of Duke itself has another meaning?"

Pinocchio said, "Yes, the Duke's position represents a portion of the authority of the Fairy Tale Kingdom. With the status of Duke, our strength will be greatly enhanced."

"The Giant King is the strongest being in the Fairy Tale Kingdom. With the added power of the Duke, no one in the entire Fairy Tale Kingdom can match him in a one-on-one fight."

"The Giant King is the strongest being?" Melen frowned, looking puzzled.

You know, the fairy tales he came into contact with in his previous life were really unimaginable, and the mechanism of the fairy tale kingdom is not as simple as just copying the protagonist of the fairy tale kingdom. Various supporting roles and even background characters that did not appear are also included.

It is for this reason that the fairy tale kingdom has evolved to such a large scale.

Logically speaking, among so many fairy tale characters, giants are just minor characters. How could they possibly deserve the title of "the strongest"?

The Fairy Godmother in Cinderella; the fairies and witches in Tangled; the Red Queen, the White Queen, the Mad Hatter, the Sky Dragon, and Time in Alice in Wonderland; and Merlin, the magician, an indispensable character in many fairy tales...

Where did they all go?

When Melen asked this question, Pinocchio gave him a somewhat surprising answer: "I have heard legends about some of the characters you mentioned, but they are not in the fairy tale kingdom."

After thinking for a moment, Pinocchio changed his approach: "You could also understand it as the Fairy Tale Kingdom currently lacks the power to materialize them."

Melen shook his head, not really a pity. After all, in many fairy tales with a relatively high upper limit of strength, although there are many good characters, there are also many villains who are easily influenced by darkness, plus those characters who are both good and evil, have powerful strength, but are out of control.

With their presence, the situation may not necessarily be better than it is now.

Mellen asked, "So, what about Snow White? Where is she now?"

Pinocchio was silent for a moment, then said, "That is exactly why I asked you to come here today. Snow White has been captured by darkness and is currently trapped in her own dark fairy tale."

"Dark fairy tale?" Melen muttered, then asked with realization, "You want me to save her?"

Pinocchio nodded, then shook his head and said, "I hope you can go and save Snow White. If you can rescue her, our chances of success will greatly increase."

"But the dark fairy tale where Snow White is is quite dangerous. You need to consider it for yourself whether to go or not."

Mellen nodded and said, "Tell me, what are the dangers?"

Pinocchio shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know the details, but one thing is certain, once you enter, there will definitely be seven dwarfs among your enemies."

"They all possess the bloodline of the Earth Titan, and their strength has reached the level of quasi-legendary. In terms of defense and strength, they even surpass the average legendary powerhouse."

"Although you don't necessarily need to confront them head-on. After all, your mission is just to save Snow White. As long as Snow White can recover, the dwarfs will naturally recover as well."

“Every fairy tale has a happy ending, even a dark one.”

Mellen pondered for a moment and asked, "Can I go alone?"

Pinocchio said, "Yes, Mr. Mellen, Snow White is in a dark fairy tale. Once we enter it, we will quickly lose ourselves. Not only will we be of no help, but we will become a burden instead."

Mellen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go! So how do I get to Snow White's Dark Fairy Tale?"

"Have you made up your mind?" Seeing Mellen agree so easily, Pinocchio became a little worried. He said, "Mr. Mellen, please consider it carefully. Although Snow White's power is a great help to us, you are the real core."

Mellen nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure."

Seeing this, Pinocchio stopped trying to persuade him and said, "Snow White's dark fairy tale is similar to the Giant Kingdom. Both of them will only begin when the fairy tale turns..."

Pinocchio described the journey in detail, and Melen naturally took careful notes.

Late at night, the fairy tale reversal came as expected, and earlier than yesterday.

Melen waited quietly for a moment. This time no giant came, and no one was watching him from above the clouds.

Perhaps the giants also understood that the small fight that could come with the fairy tale reversal would definitely not be able to do anything to him, so they simply stopped doing such useless work.

When the fairy tale reversal enters its final stage on the seventh day, the giant kingdom above the clouds will be completely connected with the fairy tale kingdom, and that will be the day to settle everything.

Withdrawing his gaze, Melen left the fairy tale kingdom directly through the east gate and entered the foggy forest.

After an unknown amount of time, the originally thick fog began to thin, and a small path appeared under my feet.

Mellen walked along the trail for more than ten minutes and saw a collapsed wooden house in front of him.

This cabin is really quite "small", with the door frame only about one meter wide. It is obviously not suitable for normal human habitation.

Melen naturally thought of the seven dwarfs.

At this moment, a strong attraction came from the collapsed cabin. To make an inappropriate analogy, it was like when you were playing an open world game and a big exclamation mark suddenly appeared on the map!

This means there is a mission!

Mellen didn't resist and went straight to the cabin to search.

It only took him a moment to find something that attracted him, which was a broken mirror.

When Melen picked up the mirror, a halo like water waves appeared on it, mending the broken parts, and a figure with only blurred facial features appeared in the mirror.

[Traveler from afar, please listen to my request and save Snow White...]

Melen asked, "Are you the magic mirror?"

The magic mirror ignored Mellen and continued to talk to itself...

Snow White is sleeping in the castle. To awaken her, you need the water of the Spirit Lake. Travelers from afar, please hurry, or it will be too late.

Mellen's mouth twitched. Shouldn't waking Snow White be true love's kiss? How did it turn into the water of the Spirit Lake?!

What kind of dark fairy tale is this? You changed things that shouldn’t be changed!

What made Melen even more speechless was that after the magic mirror said this, the halo on it slowly dissipated, and no matter how he called out, there was no response.

After putting away the magic mirror, Mellen searched the cabin for a while, and only continued on his way after making sure that there was nothing more to find.

Although the magic mirror provided information, it was incomplete and required further exploration.

Continuing along the path, it took quite some time before Melen saw a small village with only about twenty or thirty households.

As Mellen approached, a vigilant voice shouted, "Who are you? Stop! If you come any closer, I'll attack you!"

Then an old man wearing leather armor and with a dagger on his waist walked out of the shadows and looked at Melen with a vigilant look on his face.

Melen said, "Hello, old man, I am a traveler here. I am a little lost and want to go into the village to rest."

The old man couldn't help but relax a little when he saw that Mellen looked sincere and had no weapons on him.

He thought for a moment and said, "I can let you come in and rest, but you can't run around or get out of my sight. Do you understand?!"

Only after Melen nodded in agreement did the old man open the fence gate, which Melen thought had more symbolic significance than practical meaning.

Melen followed the old man into a simple wooden house at the entrance of the village. The windows of the house were supported by wooden sticks. Looking out, the scenery at the entrance of the village was in full view.

There was only one wooden chair in the wooden house, so the old man naturally sat on it directly. Melen didn't care and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Mellen could feel that the old man seemed to be staring out the window, but his eyes kept glancing at him from time to time, still looking a little wary.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Old man, my name is Mellen, and I haven't asked you anything yet..."

The old man said, "Call me Old Lin."

After the beginning, Mellen took the opportunity to chat with old Lynn.

After getting a little familiar with the place, Melen said, "Old Lin, I'm actually looking for something. Do you know the water of the Spirit Lake?"
