Facing an Ancient God for a Year-Chapter 1424 - 1422: The Quest for the Bug

Even compared to Riet, Young Master Qin and the others could be described as fragile as paper.

So when Fu Qian realized Alarakir was dragging him into a godly dream, trying to find an opportunity to escape from fragments of his will, the first thought that came to him was those few individuals.

Although it’s hard to imagine Alarakir having the ability to break through two layers of barriers, and Young Master Qin and the others didn’t even appear in the dream at that time.

But in Fu Qian’s opinion, it’s best to confirm, just in case of any hidden dangers.

After initial remote diagnosis, the people currently connected are all quite normal.

And this seems, to a certain extent, to once again prove the relationship between the Nightmare Corridor and the bookshop world.

The corridor is clearly as lofty in status as a warehouse and can connect with different planes, with extremely mixed internal elements.

Previously, when the Interlocutor cracked the origins, Fu Qian, who never loved to curb his imagination, couldn’t help but be curious about the properties of the Nightmare Corridor.

However, from later performances, the four consecutive dreams appeared to be a hundred percent from the bookshop world, and Young Master Qin and the others were not affected at that moment.

Probability deduction suggests that the corridor should still be more closely related to the bookshop world.

Therefore, Alarakir and these gods are most likely also like this...

The reason for being so concerned about those permanently confined beings—who seem to have no chance of emerging to cause trouble—is actually simple—

They cannot come out, but it does not mean that he will not go back in again.

The Extreme Hunger Infection would not be left unused in the future.

At least from the current situation, whenever this Knight from Afar goes to meet the Pontiff, he has to walk through the corridor once.

Of course, that’s all for later.

What needs to be done now is to complete an in-depth examination to thoroughly eliminate risks.

Fu Qian knocked on his forehead, concentrating his will again on the voice in his mind.

...

One can only say, worthy of being the place where I have maneuvered for twenty years.

Returning with a Second Phase status this time, the clarity of Young Master Qin and their voices already surpasses that of the Tooth Throat Lay Buddhist’s group by more than one dimension.

It is no longer just about seeing images or transmitting will that simply.

Fu Qian is quite sure he can use the aim of establishing contact as an anchor point, to permeate the surrounding with transcendent powers.

In a sense, this should be the effect the Greedy Worms desire.

Of course, this does not affect Fu Qian continuing to keep Young Master Qin and the others in VIP treatment—letting it ring as it will, observe only when necessary, do not establish contact.

The same applies now.

Fu Qian quickly selected a relatively quieter voice—a certain unintentional disaster victim, Classmate Pei Yanqing.

Although a preliminary review was already conducted, if anyone in this group is relatively more likely to be affected, it would essentially be this person.

Because of initially being overexposed under the Decree Residue, her receptiveness to information related to herself seems particularly sensitive.

Because of this, she can be fully used as the first random inspection target.

Additionally, there’s another suitable point—this individual is even still enjoying sleep, sparing the process of anesthesia.

The next moment, blue light flickered in Fu Qian’s hands, opening the Clear Dream Ring.

...

Truly enviable young people.

Rapidly pulling in Pei Yanqing over there, turning into the Master of the Dream Realm once more, Fu Qian couldn’t help but sigh at the wonderful life of a college student.

Logically, this kind of inspection should be more precise when conducted offline.

However, the reason for not choosing that is, on one hand, due to his own physical condition tipping towards easily scaring people, and on the other hand, he had confirmed earlier that today is Tuesday.

Compared to himself, an unemployed vagrant, acquaintances ideally have their own affairs.

However, Fu Qian would not for that reason assume Classmate Pei Yanqing was shirking duties, this four-person dormitory still filled with three others besides her.

Given the current time, it certainly seems like the posture of catching up on rest after final exams.

Of course, compared to others, Classmate Pei is still more leisurely, almost on the verge of awakening at any time—like right now.

Hmm...

Waking gradually from slumber, stretching lazily and comfortably, Pei Yanqing then noticed the surprisingly quiet surroundings.

With some disbelief, she rubbed her eyes and looked around, confirming that indeed it was utterly empty, and she temporarily blanked out, as her cognition seemed challenged.

"What’s happening... where has everyone gone?"

Muttering to herself, she instinctively reached for her phone to check the time, confirming it wasn’t too late, the situation in front clearly baffling her.

"There’s...a bug?"

However, after merely hesitating for a moment, a particular explanation naturally appeared within her will—everyone had been scared off by a bug.

Yet the smoothness in resolving her doubt lasted less than half a second; realizing what she realized, Pei Yanqing nearly leapt off the bed directly.

And although she eventually covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming aloud, amidst the prickling scalp, she nonetheless got up with astonishing agility.

And almost as her foot landed, the thought of dashing outside was miraculously arrested.

Biting her lip while glancing around again, Pei Yanqing found her heart suddenly filled with a sense of mission.

That was to definitely find that bug to prevent scaring others again.

So, which kind of bug was that—a spider?

As more information surfaced in her mind, her gaze turned firm and sharp, searching any possible place where the fierce creature might hide.

...

"Clearly searched everywhere..."

Moments later, back at the starting point in the silent space, Pei Yanqing’s brow was already tightly knitted.

She had searched every imaginable place but completely saw no trace.

Yet the thought inside her mind insisted unequivocally that the spider was certainly here, however, it was even...

Suddenly realizing something, she rushed to a mirror, staring at her reflection within.

Upon confirming there was no hideous creature squatting on her, she exhaled a long-held breath, although the desire to locate the target grew stronger.

But where else could it be...

Thoughts crazily churned under eagerness’s drive, all sorts of incredible notions arose within.

At a certain moment, Pei Yanqing finally couldn’t help pulling up her sleeve, urgently examining for any presumed incision-like thing on the delicate skin of her arm.

Also possibly hidden within...

However, after a fruitless search, she finally shook her head, pressing down her hands trying to examine further parts, suppressing the mad idea—

Hoo~

In the long inhaling sound, a figure sat up abruptly from bed.

Feeling her heart pounding, Pei Yanqing vigilantly glanced around.

The curtains were closed tight, the air was dim, and the other three slept soundly.

Did I have a dream?

Gradually realizing the nature of what she just experienced, however, a lingering unresolved tumult in her thoughts made her involuntarily reach out again, caressing the skin on her arm.
