Everything became much simpler after that.

A moment later.

The carousel was still moving, but now only the broken limbs of many horses remained on the ground. The only remaining horse-faced monster lay on the ground, pale-faced, with Qiuqiu on its back.

Since Nanxi hadn't given any indication yet, Qiuqiu didn't kill the guy directly.

It was because of this gap that the horse-faced monster struggled to raise its head and looked at the tranquil and peaceful Nanxi River with extreme fear.

"What exactly are you, and why do you have such a powerful demon subordinate?"

This should be considered a compliment.

Qiuqiu, with its nostrils pointing skyward, arrogantly wiped a nose that didn't even exist.

joke.

When Qiuqiu first came out of the castle, it might not have been very powerful and couldn't even beat the horse-faced monster, a mini-boss in a five-star dungeon. But things are different now. After Qiuqiu started following Nanxi, it started treating system items like candy.

Today's Qiuqiu is not the same Qiuqiu as before!

"you guess?"

Nanxi smiled faintly and nodded slightly.

As if receiving some kind of signal, the ball over there ignored the wailing of the horse-faced monster at its feet, and a huge slit appeared below the pupil of its scarlet eyeball, serving as its mouth, before it took a big bite.

"Click."

A crisp sound rang out.

Then they saw Qiuqiu swallow the horse-faced monster whole, muttering as she chewed, "Although this world is very strong, it's not very tasty. It's nowhere near as good as the snacks Nanxi gave me..."

The carousel was still turning.

The innocent and childlike voices of children singing drifted through the air, gradually coming to an end, and the carousel's rotation slowed down.

Nanxi's eyes widened slightly after witnessing what happened next.

Although the horse-faced monster has been dealt with, the decorations and architecture of the carousel are slowly being restored. Various wooden horses of different shapes have appeared in the previously empty space, and you can even see the wooden horse that has been pierced through the very center pillar.

Everything returned to its original state.

"Big sister?"

The little boy's innocent voice rang out.

The little boy, who had been disemboweled and covered in blood, was now dressed neatly, but stared blankly at the gradually stopping carousel: "Huh? Is this the end of the carousel ride? I don't remember much about riding it, I just remember having a lot of fun..."

Wow!

[This all seems like an illusion. I can't even tell if the horse-faced monster in the middle was an illusion, or if the current scene is the illusion.]

No wonder this carousel can keep running normally in Happy Amusement Park; no one would even notice...

[Judging from the choices made, the fact that there are even rumors about carousels is quite impressive.]

The comments section was filled with shock.

Before the little boy could continue thinking about anything, he saw the carousel gradually come to a stop.

A person dressed as a My Little Pony mascot warmly greeted the two, inviting them to get off: "How was it? Wasn't the carousel at our Happy Amusement Park a lot of fun?"

"Fun!"

Although he didn't understand why, the little boy happily jumped down and ran into his father's arms, and the two continued to the next attraction.

The little pony doll looked at Nanxi, only to find that the beautiful woman's expression was somewhat strange.

"What's wrong? Were you having fun on the carousel?"

That shouldn't be the case.

With that illusion in place, no one should remember their real memories of being on the carousel.

"I'm quite happy."

Nanxi gave the pony doll a deep look, her intense gaze leaving the other puzzled. She picked her nose and asked, "Beautiful lady, if you like this ride so much, would you like to ride it again?"

There's something off about the little pony doll, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

I have a feeling that something is off about the woman in front of me.

"No need, I'm going to the next place to visit."

Nanxi politely declined the invitation, her expression returning to calm as she once again transformed into the meticulous and ethereal noblewoman.

Wearing that wide-brimmed hat, she walked a long way with a graceful gait.

Nanxi stared at the ball in her pocket, a question etched on her mind: "How can this carousel illusion even protect against our own people?"

Isn't this just pure idiocy?

[Oh right, it seems like the pony doll is also seeing an illusion.]

[I'm dying of laughter. If the little pony doll was seeing the real scene, it would have noticed something was wrong immediately after the carousel started moving. Instead, it's like now, completely unaware of what's happening inside, and just watching helplessly as Sister Nan leaves...]

But this seems better for the streamer; the streamer actually benefits.

【Ha ha ha ha.】

Why are you even being wary of your own people?

I don't understand.

Qiuqiu didn't understand, Qiuqiu was deeply shocked.

It was prepared to cause a stir and then a big battle when it came out.

I didn't expect it to be so easy.

As the person and the ball were happily playing cricket games, they suddenly heard an exceptionally shrill scream from not far behind them.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"

"What happened? The carousel... how did my carousel become like this! It's ruined, everything is ruined!"

If I remember correctly, the voice that was speaking sounded a lot like that of the little pony doll from earlier.

Nanxi paused only briefly, extending her fair fingers to pull down the brim of her hat to further obscure her face. Then, ignoring the chaos behind her and the guards rushing towards the carousel, she calmly walked toward her next target.

"Hello, I'm here to buy a ticket."

Nanxi smiled and spoke.

The ticket seller glanced back, then said with some confusion, "I think I just heard a scream coming from the carousel area. Do you know what happened there... Wow!"

The gossipy ticket seller snapped out of her daze and noticed the stunningly beautiful tourist in front of her, her mouth agape in astonishment.

The woman smiled, her red lips curving into a smile and her eyes narrowing. "Sorry, I don't know what happened over there. I just want to ride the Ferris wheel today, could you please give me a ticket?"

"Okay, okay."

The ticket seller hurriedly handed over a ticket, and even after Nanxi left, she kept looking at his retreating figure.

After walking in, Nanxi looked at the ticket in her hand.

Ferris wheel.

It happens to be the Ferris wheel from one of the ghost stories.

Isn't this just a coincidence?

Thinking about the strange tale about the Ferris wheel she had overheard, Nanxi slowly walked to the entrance of the Ferris wheel and boarded a cabin.

When Nanxi caught that familiar, rich scent at the tip of her nose, she finally came to her senses.

That's when I realized it.

I wasn't the only one in the Ferris wheel cabin; there was a tall man sitting opposite me.

His golden hair was meticulously styled, his bone structure was superior, and beneath his high, straight brows were deep, dark eyes. His azure eyes were like a pool of spring water. The man slightly curled one corner of his lips, a change that subtly altered his originally extremely cold expression.

It seemed as if a touch of tenderness had been added.

What are you doing here?

Nanxi's lips twitched slightly, not understanding why Lu Zeqing, an administrative official, would come here.

What I don't understand even more is...

He could clearly control his own aura, so why did he have to release his ghostly energy in front of me? It was just to tempt me.
