The rain outside the palace still hasn't stopped.

The exterior scene at this moment was a rainy night, covering the entire sacred tower and the entire sky.

"Snapped……"

Time clicked crisply again, and his figure gradually became blurred, and his thoughts gradually drifted away from overseas and returned to reality.

Within a few breaths, silence returned to the magnificent palace.

"Whoa..."

The sky outside the tower was still filled with black clouds, but there were two thin and weak lights. With the help of some unknown force, they forcibly tore apart a corner of the black curtain and shone down from the gaps in the clouds, filling it with twilight energy. The oppressive haze is diluted a little bit.

And through this gap, it shines into the palace as if it has a target, forming two beams of light, with tiny dust particles floating in them.

It complements and complements the complex and exquisite retro embellishments on the floor.

The positions of these two beams of light are exactly where the high-backed stone thrones of the "Knight of the Spear" and the "Assassin" stood...

…………

When he opened his eyes again, Shi Chen was still in the college dormitory, sitting cross-legged on the soft bed.

"The function of [Mirror] is definitely not as simple as Zhu Zhuqing said. Either she hasn't discovered it yet, or she is hiding something... I already have some idea of ​​the identity of the 'assassin', but I can't verify it at this stage..."

Shi Chen rubbed his eyebrows and sighed in a low voice. He felt that his eyes were a little sore, his eyelids were a little heavy, and an uncontrollable wave of sleepiness hit his brain.

"It seems that although activating the [Mirror] does not consume my soul power, it is consuming my mental power. How long has it been... Oops, my feet... my feet are numb..."

He was about to stand up, but when he stepped on the ground, he suddenly felt numbness in the soles of his feet, as if there were countless nanny Rong pricking small needles in his palms, and then he stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Boom..."

There was a heavy landing sound, indicating that he had fallen hard.

"It's strange, why my feet are numb. Logically speaking, no matter how long I stay in the Hall of Valor, the flow of time in reality should be stagnant..."

Frowning, Shi Chen sat on the ground and rubbed the soles of his feet. The slightest trace of sleepiness was shattered by the fall just now.

He looked at the shadow of the moon on the ground cast through the window. It was still in the same position as before, not moving at all, quiet and cold;

"There is nothing wrong with the flow of time,"

Shi Chen used his left thumb and middle finger to gently rub the odd points outside the meridian, and roughly judged: "Using the [mirror] will put a smile on my mental power and body, but it mainly targets the mental power."

"Tick..."

The water drain placed in the house made a ticking sound, giving Shishi the illusion that he was still in the Uruk Tower.

Shi Chen immediately turned around and looked at the water leak next to the cupboard.

It is an ancient timer. It contains water in a copper pot. There is an arrow with a degree inside the pot. There is a small hole in the bottom of the pot, and the water leaks. The time is measured according to the change of the degree.

Shi Chen glanced at it roughly and slightly, and judged based on the floating position of the wooden arrow:

At the end of Haishi.

"It's already eleven o'clock..."

Shi Chen smiled mockingly to himself: "The environment really affects people. After staying in Douluo Continent for less than half a year, I can tell the water leakage time."

I stretched my legs to relieve the numbness a little.

Shi Chen walked slowly to the desk and sat down. He raised his hand and pushed open the window, letting the cool and refreshing autumn breeze flow in and making the light in the room brighter.

"Bang bang..."

Maybe it's because in this other world, animals have stronger vitality. It's early autumn now, and you can still hear the chirping of cicadas outside the house.

Shi Shi took advantage of the moonlight and boredly opened the first book placed on the log desk, called:

"Postpartum Care for Soul Beasts"

Shi Chen swore that he only studied it because he might meet the little leopard in the soul beast forest in the future, and happened to encounter her need to solve this problem, and it was not out of any strange interest.

Soon,

Shi Chen turned his ears slightly and heard an extremely slight rustling sound coming from outside the house.

"It's the direction of the flower garden."

So, Shi Chen put the pages of the book he just saw on the table, then carefully opened the door, twisted his hands and feet and walked out, intending to find out.

After walking dozens of steps, he came to the flower garden.

The flower garden is next to the pool of water. Judging from the location, it is located on the downhill slope of the college dormitory. Shi's eyes can pass over the scene in the flower garden like a condescending view.

In sight:

A slender girl dressed in black with a layer of black gauze covering her face was bending her slender waist, carrying a small kettle, and leaning over to water a certain type of flowers in the flowerbed to water the fountain of life.

The cold moonlight poured down on her long blue hair that was scattered behind her like a waterfall, exuding a faint moonlight halo.

The moonlight, the girl, the flower garden... seem to form a beautiful picture, attracting the attention of the time.

Different from the daytime, the girl's azure eyes of the same color as her hair were no longer so indifferent. They showed a slight emotion at this moment. She seemed to have a special liking for flowers.

The crescent-like eyes held a trace of pity at this moment, as if they cherished those flowers very much.

At this moment, what I feel from the girl's body is that in addition to loneliness and loneliness, it seems to be a little more delicate and soft.

No, the presence of flowers seems to have diluted the loneliness in the girl, making the girl a little more human-like, no longer so empty and unreal.

"It's so late, you haven't slept yet?"

Ye Lingling also noticed Shi Chen and stood up to ask. His voice was like a wind chime blown by the wind under the eaves, crisp and ethereal.

Perhaps it was the mood of taking care of flowers, but now she also had a bit of girlish softness.

"Isn't it the same for you? You are still taking care of these flowers and plants so late..."

Shi Chen didn't feel the slightest embarrassment of being caught peeping, and asked instead: "Um...that's not right. Watering is something you do during the day, isn't it?"

"Each type of flower is different, so of course you need to treat them differently when taking care of them."

When it comes to flowers, Ye Lingling's interest seems to have increased slightly, and there is a smile in her tone: "They are very delicate, there is no way they can make any mistakes."

while talking,

The girl tiptoed out of the flower garden, taking every step carefully for fear of stepping on any corner of any flower.

"You still have not answered my question."

Ye Lingling climbed up the hill and walked to Shichen: "Why aren't you asleep yet? Why are you here?"

Her tone returned to its former coldness, her voice was hollow and contained no emotion.

Did you weld the black gauze to your face? Shi Chen complained in his mind, and then explained: "I was asleep. I just heard a slight movement outside, so I wanted to come out and take a look."

"You know, because I live in the Soul Hunting Forest, my sleep has always been very light."

"Oh……"

Ye Lingling responded. For some reason, the girl did not continue the previous topic, but said in a confused manner:

"No one here is targeting you."
