Chapter 2194: Chapter 2189: The Root of Calamity Comes in Pairs
Sure enough, not only had the body ascended, but self-awareness had also already become another concept.
The Witchâs response was gentle yet certain, containing a cold fact within.
Clearly, whether it was the earliest Ailuo or the recent Hand Watcher, Doomsday brought them more than just bizarre physical changes.
In Fu Qianâs view, "they" should already be gone.
At first glance, time flowed serenely, but reactions and even interactions were already trapped in a lifeless template.
Earlier with Ailuo there, it certainly wasnât a genuine awkward conversation.
After greeting as prompted by the Witch, the overly smooth response from the other party immediately made Fu Qian feel a bit strange.
No matter how you look at it, both the Witch and I are dressed oddly. Hospitality is one thing, but isnât it entirely unstrange?
By the time it came to Hand Watcher, the feedback was even more obvious; being able to offer a slick evaluation of my hand, how could the mind not be involved in this process?
Combining the Witchâs subsequent explanation, it can be seen that these people seem to have entered a state similar to game characters.
At first glance, they look human-like, but there are very few things they can actually do.
For Ailuo, she can guide those who wish to find the Deer Car to the Blue House.
As for Hand Watcher, he will decide whether to continue giving instructions based on your actions.
Although the instructions given are essentially quite vague.
But thatâs not a problem; in such a place, for a Witch who once stayed here, why would she need to ask for directions if she wants to find something?
From the beginning advising me to greet them, and later leaving me to communicate alone with the Hand Watcher, the Witchâs core purpose was clearly to let me personally experience this oddity.
"So, how do you feel?"
In the exchange, the Witch evidently knew that Fu Qian had initially grasped the peculiarity of the place, and while continuing to lead the way, she consulted his overall impressions.
"This rigidity might be the reason the place could remain stable... something defined them and also annihilated them."
Fu Qian wasnât reserved.
"As for what defines them, I think if we could figure that out, it might not be difficult to understand why the place holds such strange characteristics."
...
"Youâre right; rather than mutated humans, their current situation is actually more similar to talking specimensâ"
The Witch paused in her speech, and a mournful wailing surrounded her palm.
It was as if endless souls were trying to claw their way out from a distant place or were attempting to pull this place into an abyss.
However, this agony only lasted an instant; in the next moment, the Calamity that erupted from above directly crushed the sinister aura.
Needless to say, this is another interaction with the Transcendent domain linked to this place.
And with the Witchâs assistance in pinpointing, Fu Qian casually responded, this assembly line-like cooperation didnât even delay their steps by half a second.
"During the time I spent here, I tried searching for some exceptions, but unfortunately, I eventually realized the only exception was myself, and with that came endless corrosion... like the rogue root breaking the balance."
And the Witchâs attention wasnât divided in the slightest, she continued to share her experiences from back then.
"So now there are two rogue roots."
Whether himself or the Witch, Fu Qian was already accustomed to various unfriendly monikers and automatically categorized it as such.
Following the Witchâs tale, he imagined her winding through this place alone back then.
Honestly, it felt a bit like a solo tour in a theme park.
And now this theme park might be subjected to even greater demolition pressure.
"So this time coming, aside from reviewing the possibly linked absurdities here, can we try searching to see if there are exceptions within?"
Reaching this point, Fu Qian had basically fully grasped the Witchâs reasoning.
She was so familiar with this place, while this place was so templated.
If the world was indeed changing unknowingly, then among this theme parkâs projects and choices, might there be a chance for anomalies to appear?
Firstly, the answer is uncertain, since what we seek is still too ethereal.
But there exists a worthwhile probability.
Especially with the presence of the Witch as an insider, it doesnât take effort to carry out the search.
"Yes, although right now it still looks stable."
The Witchâs commentary wasnât overtly complimentary or critical, signaling for Fu Qian to halt his steps, and after identifying the surroundings left and right, she chose a slightly rugged path.
"The Deer Car should be just behind there."
...
"Will your perceptive abilities also be affected here?"
The Witch knowing where the Deer Car is wasnât surprising; judging from her prior recall gestures, she might even be well-aware of the Deer Carâs movement patterns.
What piqued Fu Qianâs curiosity was not himself but this place, which honestly wasnât that large; the Witch shouldnât have needed to recall, just open her map.
"You could think of it that way, but the specific form is quite special; speaking of which, it also seems to be a manifestation of this placeâs characteristics."
The Witch gestured to the side not chosen.
"Perceptive abilities arenât obstructed, yet within your perception, there isnât just one target.
"Like there are multiple possibilities existing simultaneously, and before confirming, you donât know which one is real."
Oh?
That truly is intriguing, and it made sense in retrospect.
Fu Qian nodded repeatedly as he listened.
After all, the Witch had already performed hand-grabbing intruders; it would be too strange to say she had perceptive suppression specifically targeting internal matters.
Although listening to this description, it almost seemed to verge on the Observer effect.
Indeed a special place.
Of course, following the Witch still seemed easy; after all, she was quite proficient with the roles here.
"Interesting... so it sounds like this Deer Car is a core element of this place?"
While praising the Pontiff, Fu Qian continued to confirm.
Though they havenât met yet, the ability to have such a mysterious avatar technique, the sense of complexity was indeed palpable.
And the Witchâs choices also reflected her stance, almost directly heading towards it upon arrival without paying heed to other roleplayers.
"In my judgment, yes, so if thereâs any change involving the worldâs underlying rules, I believe itâs most worth communicating."
Nodding, the Witch clearly favored a direct approach, and soon she stopped.
Thud thud!
Without needing eye contact, Fu Qian, well-versed, once again took the lead with the Witch guarding the perimeter.
Ouugh...
Upon knocking on a disproportionately large door, the next moment, strange noises came from within.
Is there really a deer?
Deeply feeling the scene becoming more peculiar, Fu Qian casually pushed the door open.
Almost simultaneously, there was even the sound of hard hooves hitting the ground.
