Zhang Zi'an stared at the starry sea in a daze, trying to convince himself that it was not a phantom.

Is it a dream again?

Or is it really crazy this time?

The sky is still cloudy, and the faint dawn casts a faint shadow on the sea of ​​stars. No matter how you look at it, it really exists.

"Xinghai, why... what's this..." He stuttered incoherently, and there were too many things he wanted to ask, and all of them rushed to his mouth, but he didn't know what to ask.

Xinghai seemed to know what he was going to ask, glanced at his cell phone that he threw on the bed and said, "Everyone was locked up, Xinghai escaped by himself~"

It's simple, but it's enough to tell the situation.

"Where are you being locked up? I..."

He wanted to say that I was going to save everyone, but... he was already past the age when he was impulsive and said bold words but couldn't do it.

Xinghai's gaze looked into the void, "Everyone was locked in an invisible and intangible space, Xinghai also took a lot of effort to escape~"

The invisible and intangible space... It took a lot of effort...

Zhang Zian noticed that Xinghai's hair was a little messy, as if he had just crawled out of something particularly narrow.

"Okay...you can escape..." he murmured, "Are you all... okay?"

"Everyone is also trying to escape~" Xinghai did not answer positively.

"Then..." Hope surged in his heart.

Xinghai shook his head.

"Now we can only wait patiently for the reinforcements to arrive~"

His heart sinks again, and the meaning of Star Sea is obvious. It is difficult for other elves to escape the confinement set by the game. Their power is not good at dealing with such invisible and intangible invisible space.

Reinforcements...

This is the second time Xinghai mentioned this word. The first time Zhang Zian's mind was still dry, immersed in the shock of the elves disappearing collectively, Xinghai appeared alone. He didn't hear it clearly, and he didn't know which two words it was talking about.

"Reinforcements? Where did reinforcements come from?" he asked tentatively.

Xinghai shook his head again, "Meow~ Xinghai can't say it~ Zi'an, you have to have confidence~"

"Okay... if I only have confidence, I'll have as much as I want."

Zhang Zian knew very well that if even the elves could not do anything, he would be even more helpless and could only believe in Xinghai now.

He had to cheer up, not only for the elves, but also for himself.

Maybe it was because Xinghai’s return to relax his heart a little, he at least had Xinghai, or maybe Xinghai’s words ignited the fire of hope for him, the power returned to his body, and his mind became clearer.

He picked up his phone, read the game notification again, and noticed some rhetorical details.

"All the captured elves have been recycled..."

Not all elves are recycled, but all captured elves are recycled. It seems that there is no difference, but it is actually very different.

He knew that at least three elves were not captured after appearing, one was Zhuang Xiaodie, the second was Xiaobai, and the third was Indian wolf spirit.

If he did not understand this sentence wrongly, these three elves should still exist in the world.

The game has stopped operating, but it does not exist. It may have just cancelled the user interface, just like the client is damaged, but the server is still running normally, but ordinary users cannot connect to the server.

This conjecture is very simple to verify. Just confirm that these three elves still exist. However, the Indian wolf spirit is in the American Redwood Forest Park, which is thousands of miles apart. Moreover, he loses the help of the game. Even if it does not disappear, he cannot see it, so he can only exclude it.

Zhuang Xiaodie... The situation of this elf is very special. Its existence does not depend on mobile phones, and may not even depend on games anymore. She is parasitized somewhere in his brain, taking his dreams as nutrients. As long as he is not dead and still dreaming, she will always exist.

In a sense, she can be said to have jumped out of the three realms and not in the five elements... she is just so cool.

He remembered the dream just now very clearly. It was after the other elves bid farewell to him that she pulled him into the dream. There was a difference in time, so she was likely to still exist.

However, every time Zhang Zian sees her in his dream, she wants to see him so that he can only see her. It doesn’t mean that he can dream of her every night, so he must be crazy...

Let’s not talk about whether he can fall asleep now, even if he falls asleep, he may not be able to dream of her.

Then, only Xiaobai is left...

At this moment.

Dong.

Something hit the window of the second floor bedroom.

“Vladimir?”

He was ecstatic, thinking that after the Star Sea, Vladimir also escaped, so he quickly ran to the window and looked out.

Although there was no Vladimir outside the window, he was disappointed and surprised.

It's Xiaobai!

Xiaobai stood on the roof of Wuling Shenguang, holding a baseball in his mouth. It just now threw out the baseball and hit the window.

It was too early, and Xiaobai thought Zhang Zi'an was still sleeping, so he grabbed the baseball that was bounced back and planned to throw it for a second time. When he saw him appear by the window, he didn't have to throw it anymore.

Zhang Zian opened the window, "Xiaobai! You... are you okay? Come in quickly!"

Xiaobai's hair was wet and tightly pressed against her body, with several scratches on her legs and head. It thought he was referring to these minor injuries, and shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

While talking, Xiaobai had already jumped onto the windowsill.

"I'm here today because..."

Xiaobai knew that his mortal enemy might be in the house and was unwilling to stay for a long time. He planned to leave after he finished speaking, but he stood on the windowsill and glanced into the room. He unexpectedly did not see his mortal enemy, and the other elves were all black and white kittens left.

It was stunned, and as soon as it opened, it stopped talking, looked at Zhang Zi'an in confusion, and saw depression, hesitation, sadness and loss on his face, and he lost his usual spirit.

"What's going on? Where did they go?" it asked instead.

Zhang Zian sighed heavily, "It's hard to describe..."

Xiaobai came to ask for his help because yesterday's typhoon also caused great losses to stray dogs. Several dogs were killed by collapsed trees, and more dogs were swept away by the storm and disappeared. There were countless injured dogs. Their residence was adjacent to the landfill, and the garbage in the landfill was blown everywhere by the typhoon. It was smelly. Xiaobai was worried that it would cause a plague among the stray dogs, so he prepared to ask for help.

As for the suspect y, although she was very active in helping, she couldn't understand it after all and knew very little about pets.

It knew that he and the stray dog ​​group owe him a lot of favors. Now he seems to have encountered great setbacks. Even if it can't help, it can't pretend to not see it because of emotion or reason.

So, he was about to leave after he finished speaking, jumped into the house from the windowsill, "What happened?"

Zhang Zian briefly said what happened.

Xiaobai also took a deep breath when he heard this, "So that's it... I don't feel anything unusual. I'm sorry for your losses, but I don't seem to be able to help..."

"It's okay, as long as you're fine... By the way, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Zi'an felt a little more at ease. Xiaobai is still there, Indian wolf spirit and Zhuang Xiaodie are still there, and things may not be without a turnaround.

Xiaobai wanted to speak but stopped and hesitated for a moment and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the typhoon was too fierce yesterday. I'll see if you are safe... Of course, it doesn't include that blue cat."

It ran here from the suburbs before dawn with the sewage that had not yet completely receded. Of course, it could not have been simply to visit them, but Zhang Zi'an was facing great difficulties at this time. It did not want him to be distracted by it and the stray dog ​​anymore, after all, they were not imminent danger.

"Thanks."

Zhang Zian may be able to detect its difficulties in normal times, but now he is really too busy to take care of himself.

"Then I'll leave first, take care of you." Xiaobai jumped onto the windowsill again.

"The same to you."

Zhang Zi'an nodded and said goodbye.

Xiaobai jumped to the roof of Wuling Shenguang, jumped into the sewage, and returned to the suburbs as usual.

On the way south, Xiaobai wades forward mechanically.

The difficult enemy disappeared like this. There was no need for a stray dog ​​to spend a lot of soldiers. It would be no problem to completely defeat the stray cat and restore Binhai City in time... Strangely, Xiaobai should have celebrated with the crown, but his heart was also empty.

Perhaps, the person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy.

Losing enemies and confidants.

Drawing the sword and looking around at the slightest.

Zhang Zian looked at Xiaobai's back and walked away. Just as he was closing the window, he heard someone shouting: "Master! We are here!"

When he turned around, Wang Gan and Li Kun came from another direction.

The water level in the street dropped. Although it had not completely receded, it was impossible to drive the charge boat, so they came from wading.

Are they reinforcements that Xinghai refers to?

...How is that possible?

If these two guys were reinforcements, Zhang Zi'an would rather poke his eyes on himself.

Zhang Zian frowned, "Didn't you let you stop using it today?"

The two of them said with a smile: "Anyway, they are idle at home. My parents asked us about our well-being last night, and this morning they disliked us all kinds of people, saying that we were not as promising as the neighbor's children, and they were still staying in the store freely and freely without seeing each other."

Zhang Zi'an: "..."

While they were muttering, they climbed onto the roof of Wuling Divine Light on their own, "Master, pull us... Hey? I think the water has almost receded, and the door may be opened in a while."

They stretched out their arms and waited for Zhang Zi'an to pull them into the window on the second floor, but he never reached out.
To be continued...
