Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

Compared to the sullen and clearly enraged Sirin and Bella, Lu Ze was more alarmed by the strength of the two newly appeared Valkyries.

His divine sense swept out the instant Otto finished speaking, passing over Sirin and Bella, and heading straight for the two figures.

In Lu Ze's perception, the Honkai energy fluctuations remaining on the white-haired man's lance were as vast as mountains and seas, while the aura within the gray-haired man was as steady and heavy as a walking ancient mountain.

The intensity of both auras far exceeded his comprehension.

Without even exchanging blows, Lu Ze already understood that Celine and Bella were no match for the two of them.

Both of them had only recently awakened their powers, and facing two Valkyries with rich combat experience and the unknown Otto, they had no chance of winning.

Thinking of this, Lu Ze decisively reached out and grabbed the arms of both Xilin and Bella.

When he grabbed Celine, he could feel the muscles in her forearm taut like a fully drawn bowstring, trembling slightly—clearly she was furious beyond measure.

Bella instinctively wanted to shake him off, but when she turned to look at Sirin and saw that her queen did not react, she hesitated for a moment, and the surging Honkai energy around her stopped expanding.

Lu Ze didn't say anything, but just gripped their arms tightly.

At the same time, he silently began a countdown in his mind.

Because the premonition that I was about to leave this world had arrived.

This was the repulsive force he felt every time he was about to return to his own world, as if every grain of air in that world was slowly pushing him away.

In this world, he must be considered an unwelcome guest.

"Cirin, activate your spatial powers and take us away from here."

Lu Ze lowered his voice and spoke in a volume that only Sirin and Bella could hear.

His fingers tightened unconsciously.

If he could use spatial teleportation to buy some time until he was expelled from this world, he could escape with Sirin and the others.

"no."

Xilin's voice sounded like it was being squeezed out from between her teeth. Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She raised her palm and tried again and again, but only a few wisps of faint purple light were futilely entwining in her palm, unable to form a stable imaginary channel.

"I don't know why I can't access the imaginary space."

Lu Ze raised his head, his gaze passing over the shoulders of the two Valkyries and landing on Otto's calm, smiling face.

Needless to say, this man must have done something wrong.

From the moment he appeared until now, everything has been going according to his script, and he has done it flawlessly.

"I installed a space interference device in this Tower of Babylon a long time ago."

Otto spread out one hand, explaining the home's security system to his guest like a kind host, his tone almost friendly and patient.

"Unless you leave the area of ​​this tower, you will not be able to escape through the imaginary space."

He paused slightly, then turned his outstretched hand over so that the palm faced upwards, making an inviting gesture.

"Why don't we sit down and talk?"

Otto's confidence in victory was not feigned.

His plan was already in place long before Lu Ze even entered the tower.

A mere visitor from another world, a herald who has awakened his humanity, is not enough to overturn the script he had already written.

Lu Ze glanced down at Xilin and saw that she was biting her lip, her lower lip turning white from being bitten.

The anger in his golden eyes had not subsided.
