Chapter 184 The Apocalypse
"Woooooooo..."
When Tidal Sea Spirit Ahai saw that almost all the pets that appeared on the water were gathering towards Sun Ruirui, he immediately made a whimpering sound.
Li Qian saw this scene and fell into deep thought.
He didn't react at all and continued to stay still and quiet.
Just like that, after about ten minutes, the strange scene near the small bay continued... Sun Ruirui just stood there quietly, motionless.
Next to them were all water-type pets that could not move.
Li Qian couldn't help himself and sneaked out from his hiding place. Just as he was about to go closer to investigate, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Shh, stay here and don't make any noise."
Hearing this, Li Qian suddenly turned around and saw that the person coming was Sun Hongyi. He immediately asked, "Professor Sun, what is this?"
"It's hard to explain this in a few words. I'll tell you when I have a chance." Sun Hongyi's gaze was fixed on the small bay, his eyes full of worry. He spoke perfunctorily and had no intention of explaining to Li Qian.
Seeing this, Li Qian did not investigate further. Everyone has their own secrets.
Not enough for outsiders.
And some secrets, if known, may not be a good thing for you.
So Li Qian suppressed his curiosity, remained silent and asked nothing.
If Sun Hongyi wanted to talk about this matter, he would definitely mention it on his own initiative.
If he doesn't want to mention it, there will be no result even if I ask.
Remaining patient, Li Qian and Sun Hongyi just watched quietly without saying a word.
About twenty minutes later, changes occurred again, and the blue light on Sun Ruirui's body dimmed a lot.
As the blue light on the girl gradually dimmed, the water pets crawling beside her also began to move one after another.
They seemed to have awakened after a long sleep, and began to move, retreating towards the small bay.
Finally, all the blue light on Sun Ruirui's body went out and dimmed, and all the pets returned to the water.
At the moment when the blue light dimmed, the girl's body softened and she collapsed. Sun Hongyi seemed to have anticipated this scene, and he suddenly waved his hand.
At the same time, on the water, the only remaining tidal sea spirit Ahai also waved his hand and released a soft blue energy.
The soft blue energy wrapped around her like a ribbon, as if a big hand was gently supporting Sun Ruirui.
With such skillful coordination, there is no doubt that similar things like what happened tonight must have happened more than once in this manor.
Looking at Sun Ruirui who was wrapped in blue energy, Sun Hongyi continued to order: "Send her back."
Upon hearing the order, Tidal Sea Spirit Ah Hai waved his hand again, and the blue energy quickly extended, dragging Sun Ruirui to a certain location like an infinitely extending carpet.
I should send her back to her room to rest.
"I know you may be confused and curious, but no matter what, let's wait until tomorrow." After instructing Tidal Sea Spirit Ahai to send Sun Ruirui away, Sun Hongyi waved his hand with a tired face.
Li Qian had no intention of asking at this time. It was not the right time to talk, so he nodded and slowly started to walk back. Along the way, Li Qian remained silent and said nothing until he approached the room where he was staying temporarily. Then he asked, "Um, Rui, is Sun Ruirui okay?"
Sun Hongyi glanced at Li Qian with a complicated look in his eyes. After a moment, he responded, "It's an old problem. After a night's rest, I will be fully recovered tomorrow."
After that, he looked at the time and saw that it was almost three in the morning, so he added, "You've been busy all night, you should go to bed early."
"Professor Sun, you should also go to bed early." Li Qian hesitated and changed his words when the words came to his lips.
Pushing open the door, Li Qian returned to his own guest room again. The room was spacious and quiet, suitable for rest.
However, lying on the big bed, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, with thoughts running wild in his mind.
Unconsciously, the scene he just experienced resurfaced in his mind. He closed his eyes to rest. Not feeling sleepy at all, Li Qian simply took out the fully charged VR glasses and put them on.
Putting on VR glasses and turning on the virtual reality function, Li Qian logged into the network directly in the virtual world and started checking.
After searching for a while, I found only a few pieces of information on the Internet, which were not very clear and had no value.
After looking for a while without gaining much, Li Qian simply used VR glasses to log into the Dongxia Federation's trainer website and checked out various posts.
These posts and papers are complex and diverse. Some of them are valuable, but most of them are worthless garbage.
Moreover, if you want to view valuable posts or papers, you often have to pay a fee. Fortunately, for Li Qian now, this fee is nothing.
The next day, Li Qian just woke up at around nine o'clock and had a simple breakfast. Just as he was thinking about whether he should take the initiative to find Sun Hongyi to get the information about the lava worm, Sun Ruirui appeared in front of him.
The girl was no longer as cheerful as she was yesterday, and asked in a depressed voice: "Li Qian, can you walk with me?"
Li Qian wanted to make her happy, so he joked, "It's my honor to accompany a beautiful girl to visit this beautiful Hongqiao Manor."
Soon, the two of them started walking in the manor. Halfway through, Sun Ruirui suddenly said, "Um, I'm sorry about what happened last night."
Li Qian looked at the girl, shook his head, and then said gently: "Why do you want to say sorry to me? In fact, what happened last night has no effect on me at all."
The two chatted casually, and after a while, the girl forced a smile on her face, "This manor has almost exhausted all of Uncle San's efforts. The scale is even larger than that of ordinary breeding bases."
"Do you know why he built this manor so huge?"
Li Qian did not respond. He knew very well that at this moment, he just had to listen attentively.
Sure enough, the next moment, Sun Ruirui spoke up and explained the reason, "The reason why this manor was built so huge is actually to make the pets living inside live more comfortably."
At this point, she suddenly changed the subject, and the smile on her face turned bitter, "Of course, strictly speaking, it's not just the pet, it also includes me."
"Such a huge manor is, in essence, my cage."
Li Qian seemed to be thinking about something, and asked tentatively, "Is it because of what happened last night?"
Sun Ruirui did not answer, but asked again: "Have you heard of the Apocalypse?"
"The Revelator?" Upon hearing this, a look of doubt appeared on Li Qian's face.
This was the first time he had heard of this word!
