"Three! Two! One! I'm done! Traveler! Paimon's done!!"

"Come out quickly! Traveler! Stop playing... Come out quickly..."

"Wuwuwu... Come out quickly, traveler. I'm scared when you're not around..."

Realizing that she couldn't get a response, Paimon's anxiety reached its peak. She tried her best to look for Lin Ze anywhere around her that she could see with the naked eye, but she couldn't find him.

Her eyes were red and swollen, tears were flowing, and sad sobs came from her throat.

"Traveler, what's wrong with you...where have you been...wuwu..."

As if he had thought of something, Paimon suddenly raised his arm to wipe away his tears and murmured in a hoarse voice.

"It must be... Paimon must have done something wrong... Yes, if Paimon did it right, the traveler would come back."

Paimon covered her face and closed her eyes, trying to hold back her tears. Then she counted carefully, word by word, starting from one hundred again:

"One hundred...ninety-nine..."

In the empty and desolate space, Paimon's childish and slightly hoarse voice echoed.

Every time she counted, she could recall the scenes with Lin Ze in her mind, so much so that later on, she almost cried while counting:

"Five.....Four.....Three..."

"Two...One..."

Swallowing the bitterness in his throat, Paimon slowly removed his hand.

She tried to catch her breath before slowly opening her eyes.

"No...no? How can that be possible!"

Paimon flew away hurriedly, shouting and searching.

"Traveler! Traveler!! I'm here!!"

“Damn it!! Damn it!!!”

"Liar!! Big liar!! Traveler is a big liar!!!"

Nothing around her changed, and Paimon did not see the person who had made such a solemn promise to her.

"You...you promised that you would come back after Paimon counted to a hundred! You lied!!"

"Wuwuwu...Please..Traveler!"

“Don’t leave me…”

.....

By the time everyone on the top of the mountain had arrived at the foot of the mountain, Paimon still had nothing.

"Ichito, have you seen the traveler?"

"Albedo, Klee, what about you? Star-Lord! Rocket, you should have noticed the Traveler."

Star-Lord, Rocket and the others felt a sinking feeling in their hearts when they saw the sad and lost look on the little girl's face.

They all saw the strange phenomenon in the sky just now. Although they didn't know why the traveler's companions suddenly jumped down the mountain at the same time as if they had received some message, but when they heard Paimon's question, even the slow-witted Drax understood that something might have happened to the blond boy.

"No, we didn't see him along the way."

Nebula, who has always been "hard-hearted", answered Paimon's question.

Although she had a bad premonition, Paimon just stood there after getting a negative answer. Under the gaze of everyone, crystal clear tears slid down her cheeks and fell to the ground, splashing little "ripples".

"What should I do? What should I do? I can't find the traveler. Wow!!!"

Ichito's fists were clenched so hard that they made crackling sounds. The feeling of a piece of my heart being taken away turned out not to be an illusion. The traveler really was...

"If I find that guy, he'll be dead!"

The wanderer's face was so gloomy that it looked like water could drip out of it. He raised the wind and flew into the sky, disappearing from everyone's sight.

Seno said nothing, he left silently and began to search, and Tinari followed him.

"Wow, Honor Knight brother..."

Klee hugged Duduko tightly. She pulled Albedo's hand. After seeing the moisture in Albedo's eyes, Klee's shoulders began to twitch.

"Klee, you stay with Paimon."

Albedo gave Klee some instructions and found a direction to leave.

As if they had a tacit understanding, the others also began to look for Lin Ze with hope.

Star-Lord and others naturally cannot do nothing and have to consciously share the pressure with others.

The sound of dripping rain accompanied Paimon's crying, and soon the sky turned dark, covering the light of the blood moon.

It rained harder.

Lucy didn't go looking for him, she knew the result already, this search was just a necessary step to make everyone realize that Lin Ze was already "dead".

She blinked her sore eyes and came to the two little ones and hugged them gently.

It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it seemed like only a moment had passed.

boom! ! !

With a loud bang.

A humanoid object was thrown down from the sky by wanderers.

The embarrassed Red Skull struggled on the ground as if he was falling apart, but he couldn't get up.

The searching team, which had found nothing, noticed the movements of the wanderers here. They thought they had found a clue and ran back to their original location.

"Tell me! Where is that guy!!"

The Wanderer fell from a great height and stepped on the Red Skull's neck.

Um...cough cough cough...

The Red Skull's hand tightly grasped the ankle of the wanderer that was pressing on his throat, as if trying to pry the foot open and grab a little bit of air.

His shoulders were tense, his whole body was stiff, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and the two black holes on his face revealed a sense of helplessness and fear.

“Let go…let go…”

The Red Skull's lips trembled a few times, and broken characters were squeezed out of his mouth with difficulty.

“Speak!! Speak!!”

The Ranger increased his strength again, and the Red Skull kicked his legs hard, his lips trembling.

The Red Skull stretched out his right hand with difficulty and pointed upwards. The Wanderer immediately loosened his pace, kicked him down, and looked up impatiently.

!!!

The joy in his eyes did not last for a few seconds. After not seeing the person he wanted to see, the wanderer became even angrier.

He turned and stared at the Red Skull, and said in an almost ferocious tone: "Well, you dare to play tricks on me!"

"go to hell!!!"

The Wanderer raised his foot high. If it landed in the violent wind element, the powerful force would undoubtedly cause the Red Skull's skull to explode.

Realizing this, the Red Skull immediately screamed for mercy: "No no no!!"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me!!! I didn't lie to you, I didn't lie to you!! Believe me!!"

The Red Skull shouted at the top of his lungs, while trying to move backwards by scraping the ground, in an attempt to get away from under the Wanderer's feet.

The black robe that covered his face had shattered into pieces at some point in time, and the Red Skull's ugly body was exposed in front of everyone. His rugged face seemed to have been hit by some sharp weapon, and half of it was deeply sunken, leaving a regular arc-shaped groove.

From the outside, it looks like the groove has smashed Red Skull's head into two pieces.

A normal person would have died long ago after suffering such injuries, but Red Skull was still able to act and think independently in this situation. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Star-Lord and Rocket would have been unable to help but start complaining.

Hiss, that’s strange, I clearly didn’t see it before.

Star-Lord rubbed his chin and guessed secretly:

Did Red Skull land face first when he fell? ?

"Soul Gem!! That person!!"

"That person used his soul to exchange for your qualification to obtain the Soul Stone!!!"

The Red Skull's words made the Ranger stop his attack, and a look of astonishment appeared on his cold face:

"What did you say?!"

"Gemstones, gemstones."

Paimon gave a smile that was uglier than crying. She opened her clenched hands, and the dazzling gem was lying quietly in the middle.

She stared at her palm, tears and rain mixed together and wet the surface of the gem. The golden glow emitted by the gem stung Paimon's heart at this moment.

"What a lousy stone! Paimon doesn't want it!!"

“I’ll give it back to you—!!!”

Paimon threw the Soul Gem at the Red Skull's face. She rushed over and grabbed one of the two halves of the Red Skull's head, shaking it and screaming:

"I've returned the gem to you!!"

"Hurry up and change my traveler back!!!"

"Give him back to me!!!"

The Red Skull had just escaped from the danger of being crushed by a foot, and before he had time to catch his breath, he was suddenly attacked by Paimon. He didn't even have time to pick up the gems, and the pain of his skull being torn apart made him perform a special stunt on the spot:

change face.

"Hurry up and change my traveler back!!"

“Hurry up!!!!”

Seeing that Red Skull didn't react, Paimon became even more anxious and attacked more fiercely.

Well! ! !

The Red Skull's face turned pale, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't make any sound. He collapsed to the extreme and cried out in his heart:

[I can’t do this! ! ]
