322: Is there a possibility?
“That’s right! This girl should be a product of the human rift experiment… or rather, an accidental product, one that even the Dawn Society missed… You found her in the ruins, that area where the disaster happened previously.
We also went to investigate. By the time our people arrived, it had already become ruins, leaving behind residual rift energy everywhere. It’s clear that the destruction of that royal capital was used by the Dawn Society for human rift experiments, likely conducted alongside rift transfers.” Misha nodded and said,
“The most important thing is, we didn't detect any signs of life at that time! Of course, it might be related to the pervasive rift energy.
Because the entire royal capital had turned into ruins, and with all that rift energy, our people couldn’t stay long. After a simple reconnaissance, they returned.
The rift energy there slowly dissipated over time, by the time you returned.
It had already been several days later, and then you personally experienced the subsequent events.”
“Hmm…” Yi Xin stroked his chin, “At that time, I indeed only sensed the rift energy on this girl. I detected her through the aura of the rift energy.”
“Mhm!” Misha nodded, pondering slightly. “To be honest, when you said she was still alive, I really didn’t detect any life aura. It might be because the rift energy completely blocked it. I also checked, and she is indeed alive. Your perception was correct… But, I always feel like something isn’t right…”
“Hm? What’s not right?” Yi Xin asked Misha.
“Hmm… the rift energy on her appeared too abnormally. Also, her vital signs, when you went out, I carefully examined them and discovered an unusual thing, which is that this girl’s body is not quite like a normal person’s…” Misha mused before speaking.
“Not quite like what?” Yi Xin looked at Misha with a puzzled expression.
“She has no heart,” Misha said.
“???” Yi Xin looked at Misha with a face full of question marks, “That’s impossible! How can a person live without a heart?!”
“Exactly! That’s the strangest part!” Misha nodded with an expression that said, “Of course I know that.” She continued, “Think about it, no heart, no life aura detected on her, but there are signs of life… If this truly is an oversight by the Dawn Society, then we need to thoroughly investigate the origin of this girl…
However, there’s another possibility…”
Misha didn’t finish her sentence when Yi Xin took over, continuing, “That is, this girl is a ‘pawn’ of the Dawn Society, or rather, this girl was deliberately left there by the Dawn Society! The kind that doesn’t matter whether we discover her or not.”
“Exactly!” Misha heard Yi Xin’s words and nodded appreciatively. “It’s comfortable talking to smart people. Sigh, if my little darling were here, it would probably be a continuous stream of ‘Why?’ ‘Why, though?’ ‘Why on earth is this happening?’”
“…” Yi Xin looked at Misha speechlessly. Weren’t they discussing something important? Why could she suddenly jump to a completely different topic?
“So, should we save her?” Yi Xin looked at the girl on The Ground.
“Even if we save her, do you have a way to?” Misha rolled her eyes, an incredibly alluring gesture, and said.
“Uh… you’re right!” Yi Xin couldn't help but scratch his head.
The man and woman looked at the girl lying on The Ground, instantly feeling a bit helpless.
To say they should just ignore her and throw her out, that wouldn't do. No one knew if this was some method left behind by the Dawn Society, or if it would pose any danger.
Misha’s magic array not only suppressed rift energy but also had powerful protective effects.
Moreover, over a hundred large and small magic arrays were set up around, all in a hidden, unactivated state.
Once something happened, these magic arrays would immediately activate and take effect.
Misha had set all of this up while Yi Xin was out.
Because she sensed something was wrong. With a thousand years of accumulation, plus her precognitive abilities, she couldn't know exactly what, but she vaguely felt something wasn't quite right.
Following the principle of rather being busy for nothing than having something go wrong.
Misha then proceeded to make this series of arrangements.
Coupled with the riot of rift energy on the girl, Misha took the opportunity to create a magic array specifically for suppressing rift energy.
But now, with the situation as it was, along with the information Yi Xin brought back, and the exchange of information between them… they ultimately reached many conclusions and possibilities.
It immediately left the two of them staring at each other in bewilderment.
“Forget it, you go rest first! I’ll keep an eye on things here.” Finally, Misha covered her forehead with a headache and waved her hand, saying.
“No, it’s fine, I’m not tired. Rest, and all that, isn’t it all the same for people of our level?” Yi Xin waved his hand, indicating it wasn’t necessary.
“Oh? Little Brother Yi Xin, are you suggesting you want to spend the night alone with your elder sister in the same room?” Misha stroked her face, tilted her head slightly, and looked at Yi Xin with a smile.
She was adorable, yet also endlessly alluring.
“Uh…” When Yi Xin heard Misha’s words, he suddenly felt a myocardial infarction.
He rolled his eyes speechlessly. When he first met Misha, after she looked at him a few times, her originally cold and aloof ‘public face’ changed.
At first, he would often blush uncontrollably from being teased, but now, upon hearing it, he would only helplessly roll his eyes, and then subtly stiffen a bit to show respect.
Yi Xin couldn't help but glance at the girl on The Ground. Alone, a man and a woman, so, you no longer consider her human, do you… Well, someone alive without a heart indeed can’t be considered human.
If it were some super-strong expert who could survive losing their heart, he would believe it.
But how could this girl be? For such an expert, rift energy couldn’t possibly cause her to be in this state, after all, rift energy didn’t have much effect on Yi Xin when he was prepared.
This could be seen from his battles with members of the Dawn Society.
Unless he was thrown into a rift and eroded by the endless rift energy within it. As for those individual surges of rift energy, they had no effect on Yi Xin, let alone on an expert who could live without a heart. Could it be that she came out of a rift?
Wait… came out of a rift?
Yi Xin’s thought process suddenly stalled.
Then, in an instant, all his thought processes were frantically disassembled and reassembled, finally forming a straight path!
“Um, Sister Misha… I have a possibility to suggest, is there any chance that this girl, she came out of a rift…?”
