Being fixed by the time-stop barrier, it naturally couldn't flap its wings to catch up with their plane, so it was left behind.

However, until they solved it completely, no matter where they fled to, they would just be going in circles.

Boom————

The violent tremor came again like an earthquake, causing Ji Hui to fall to the ground without standing firmly. Looking at the changing scene outside the window, it seemed as if it had turned 180 degrees, allowing him to once again see the fallen demon in the distance who was struggling to escape from the time stop.

However, another brilliant golden light, like a meteor streaking across the sky, split the scenery into two in his eyes.

Amidst the clear sword sounds that even heavy steel could not block, the fallen demon that was streaked by the meteor suddenly stopped struggling, and like broken glass, its upper and lower limbs separated, and it began to dissipate with a shrill cry.

boom----

And those energies that finally began to flow became completely violent after losing the control of their original owners, causing the explosion to spread immediately afterwards.

But before those energy-laden air waves hit the plane, the golden barrier had already covered the outside of the plane, forcing them to disappear bit by bit under the iron wall.

With his field of vision already very narrow, Ji Hui could only barely see Ophelia, who had changed into a magical girl, floating in the air in the corner of the window. She seemed to be confirming whether there was any remaining danger. Within just a few seconds, she completely disappeared from the end of his field of vision.

The room, which had been stained with off-white, began to fade, allowing color to return to its surroundings once again.

However, what replaced it was another more confusing feeling of dizziness.

It was as if his original sense of direction was suddenly reversed, and Ji Hui's feet left the ground in an instant, making him feel as if he was falling and watching the ceiling suddenly expand in front of his eyes. He subconsciously raised his hands, feeling the severe pain all over his body as he fell.

He knew very well that if he used his time-stop function indiscriminately on such a high-speed plane, it would only tear the entire plane apart. The fallen demon was still in the space outside the window, so he dared to use it only when he was a certain distance away from the plane.

"All personnel on board, get ready! The plane has just left the gray zone and is adjusting its direction. Please hold onto any objects nearby to avoid turbulence!"

The pilot's voice, mixed with a hint of anxiety, was heard from the radio in the room. After taking a quick look around, Ji Hui raised his hand and grabbed the pole on the ceiling.

He had previously thought that this thing was used for emergency clothes drying, but now it seems that Duncan and his team had already designed it specifically based on their experience in plane accidents.

But even so, the upside-down feeling made Ji Hui grit his teeth and hold on to the pole tightly, trying to avoid being thrown out like a sandbag again under the rotating force like a washing machine.

The gravity, which was originally almost reversed, began to change into another form, as if it was in free fall, making Ji Hui look at the rapidly falling scene outside the window and tilting little by little. In another changed position, his face was pressed against the ceiling.

The sound coming from outside the window made Ji Hui, who was already dazzled, look over subconsciously, only to find that Ophelia had been sticking to the outside of the window at some point.

Moreover, she seemed to have noticed her appearance, and after blinking, her golden eyes moved away.

Her hands also stretched outward, letting the huge magic power hum softly, causing his eardrums to vibrate.

The fuselage began to rotate again, but this time it seemed much more stable, allowing Ji Hui to finally see through the window her movements of controlling the plane with the light layer.

This damn sense of security

Seeing the other party stepping on the fuselage, as if taming a wild horse, helping the plane to change direction with ease, Ji Hui couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

However, perhaps because her standing posture was exactly level with the window, before Ji Hui could react, Ophelia frowned slightly, and in the next moment, the bottom of her fluffy skirt was also dyed with golden magic, and the entire bottom of the skirt was completely covered in light.

The dazzling light, like the sun, shone directly into the window, forcing Ji Hui to turn his head away under the dazzling holy light to avoid his eyes being temporarily blinded by the strong light.

Well, after all, she is a girl, so it is normal for her to care about this. It is just that I reacted a little too slowly.

However, he still felt that holy light was too discordant.

Chapter 355 This is not funny

When Ji Hui rubbed his eyes and returned to the main hall of the cabin, Yu Ran Chizuru and others also had lingering fears on their faces. Even though the plane had returned to a stable flight, they still sat in their seats without moving.

But even so, looking at the way Funado Rika held Yu Mingxue tightly, Ji Hui could still guess how seriously frightened this ghost sister was during the bumpy ride just now.

"Ji Hui, it looks like you're okay."

Seeing Ji Hui coming out safely, Yu Ran Chizuru and Yu Mingxue immediately spoke happily, making Ji Hui nodded slightly and spread his hands helplessly.

"I'm fine, I was just startled. That fallen demon just happened to appear next to my window, and I was so scared that I just shot him with a time-stop shot."

"Although I appreciate your help, it's best not to use Time Stop casually in a place like this."

While tidying up his messy clothes, Duncan reminded again with a little concern, which made Ji Hui, who was sitting down with him, nod.

"Don't worry, I understand this."

When boarding the plane, Charles and his research team repeatedly told Ji Hui about the effects and dangers of his various abilities on the plane, and he was so tired of hearing them.

However, I have to say that what they said does make sense. After all, this is not a cartoon, and abilities will not ignore the original impact just because of the plot needs.

While they were talking, Ophelia, who was helping the plane turn at high altitude outside, also returned to the cabin. Her long golden hair was not messy at all, as if she had never left here.

"The Gray Realm has been released. Judging from its size, it's probably not fully grown yet, which is why it's forming in the uninhabited deep space. Once its capabilities are further enhanced, it will officially begin to devour its surroundings." /@群@:∥四%∑耳≠七!°酒≡#吓^弎%

There are actually quite a few small gray worlds like this that have not been discovered yet, and because they are located in remote places, they are often not discovered until casualties actually begin to appear or when creations such as airplanes and submarines suddenly lose contact.

Therefore, discovering such breeding grounds for fallen demons and taking preventive measures before they pose a threat is also the task of many members of the Dark Mace Garden and magical girls who are specifically responsible for this aspect.

Barna is not a very wide area, and it is difficult for aircraft that stray into it to maneuver freely. Therefore, when they hit the edge of the gray world, they will randomly emerge again from the other end of the gray world, and the sense of direction will be completely disrupted during the high-speed movement.

The same is true for Wu. Unless they are prepared for the situation like them and have the help of magical girls, most planes will find it difficult to react even if they escape from the Gray World, and will crash and die without having time to adjust their posture.

Seeing that Ophelia had returned, Duncan's gaze shifted slightly towards Ji Hui. He naturally knew the meaning behind that look.

Lu——As I said, having Ophelia here is the most reliable guarantee.

Lu Ji Hui had no choice but to nod as he was unable to refute.

It feels really good to have a super boss protecting you.

After taking a private look at the information displayed on the tablet computer, which was connected to the wall so that the outer shell had only one or two bumps, Duncan explained the situation to them.

"Fortunately, apart from a chef who accidentally scratched his face with a kitchen knife while cooking and is currently receiving treatment from others, there were basically no casualties."

"I feel like I'll have a psychological trauma from flying for the rest of my life."

Rika Tishuwatari said with lingering fear, patting her chest.

"Indeed, it would be fine if it were outside, but inside the plane it's like a secret room, which is even scarier."

qEven Mi Lulu nodded in agreement and unconsciously glanced out the window again.

"It won't happen again, will it?"

"Although I really want to comfort you and tell you it's okay, but this kind of thing is really unpredictable, and the possibility of it happening repeatedly is not low."

:The tone, like that of someone who has been through it all, made Ji Hui's mouth twitch.

"Uh....So how many times in a row have you encountered this?"

"Ten times in one hour."

Duncan's casual words plunged the entire cabin into silent silence.

"Ha....hahaha, you are kidding me, right?"

Ji Hui laughed dryly twice, but Duncan just shook his head slightly.

"This isn't funny. Do you remember when I found you wrapped in bandages? That time."

Ji Hui's expression became stiff again. After looking at his serious expression several times and making sure that he was not joking, he suddenly became deeply worried about whether he could successfully complete his journey.

But Duncan didn't care. He just continued to explain despite their hesitant attitude.

"So after takeoff, I also made arrangements with the responsible persons in the cities along the way so that they could provide timely assistance in case the plane had to make an emergency landing or crash."

"Of course, I didn't give clear notice of the specific travel route and time."

His words made Yu Mingxue blink and asked curiously.

"Why? If we don't notify them, wouldn't it be more difficult to coordinate when an accident actually happens?"

Duncan paused for a few seconds before slowly explaining.

"The reason, of course, lies with your partner, Miss Yu Mingxue."

"Ji Hui?"

Yu Mingxue was slightly stunned, but Yu Ran Chizuru had already reacted and frowned.

"Could it be possible that they would even go to such an extent?"

"Not necessarily, but it's always right to prepare for the worst."

"An extraterritorial demon on a plane, even with the goal of going to the Dark Mace Garden headquarters to discuss coexistence and even reconciliation, could easily touch some people's nerves."

"And most extreme people tend to suddenly cause big trouble when it's least expected."

"As for me, either they think I'm an accomplice and would only clap their hands and curse me for a good death even if I died with them, or they think sacrificing me to deal with the arrogant extraterritorial demon is a very worthwhile investment."

Duncan said this in a calm tone, not seeming to be angry at all.

In a sense, perhaps he has become accustomed to being treated this way.

"People who are deeply resentful are naturally adept at justifying their actions. As long as they have a good reason, they will do anything, no matter how shameless."

"Of course, Ophelia's arrival can be said to be a pleasant surprise. It allows us to erase as many traces of this journey as possible while also being able to deal with the dangers along the way."

Chapter 356: Soul Out of Body

So, feeling uneasy, Ji Hui, who had originally wanted to go back to his room for a good night's sleep, gave up the idea. However, Funado Rika, who was constantly on edge, became quite sleepy from the fatigue she felt. Yu Mingxue and Mi Lulu had no choice but to accompany her back to the room, where they briefly fell asleep in those sleeping bag-like restraints.

Ji Hui and Yu Ran Chizuru were still sitting in the passenger seats of the cabin, leaning on each other, watching movies on their phones and taking a nap.

Although they had encountered the constraints of the gray world again not long ago, just like before, Ophelia quickly dealt with the opponent. This time, even the plane did not crash. After just a short period of turbulence, it resumed stable operation.

Just as Duncan said, Ophelia herself is the best defense measure, and is even more convenient than those weapons loaded on the plane. Just one fly-out attack is enough to completely resolve the crisis.

Although Ji Hui and others had considered whether this kind of defense measure that relied entirely on one person was a bit irresponsible, Ophelia said that the effort it took was almost the same as throwing away garbage, so they had to give up.

Of course, the two of them did not go to bed right away. They were also preparing for a possible battle and completely handed over the security to Ophelia. They felt a little uncomfortable.

Near noon, the chef with a bandage on his face brought out the lunch in a box, allowing Ji Hui and others to enjoy a relatively sumptuous meal.

Moreover, no fallen demon appeared after that, which made their lunch break seem rare and leisurely and comfortable. Chizuru Yuzen, who felt a little sleepy after the meal, lay directly on Ji Hui's shoulder and fell asleep.

"Aha"

Looking at the scene outside which was beginning to become somewhat monotonous, Ji Hui also yawned and rubbed his eyes.

Although he was unfamiliar with this world, he wanted to take advantage of the time on the plane to take a closer look at the scenery below, but no matter how hard he looked, it was no different from his previous life.

After all, the water is still blue, the architectural style is no different, and the mountains are still mountains.

The slightly itchy feeling coming from Chizuru Yuzen's breathing on his shoulder made Ji Hui move his body slightly and change to a more comfortable position.

Her sleeping posture, which was not very good to begin with, became a little more restrained when she was sitting. She just hugged herself with one arm and pressed the other hand on her lower abdomen, as if she was using his arm as a pillow.

Her even breathing and the fragrance of her hair lingering in his nose were like a lullaby, soothing him. Ji Hui couldn't help but smile faintly, and raised his hand to gently stroke her forehead.

Ji Hui naturally noticed how hard she was trying to learn combat skills from Ophelia these days, and he was also quite clear about her purpose in doing so.

Although he did feel a little distressed, he still did not try to dissuade her. After all, this was Chizuru Yuzen's own decision, and all he could do was respect her ideas.

What's more, if it really comes to that, being destroyed by Chizuru Yuzen before he destroys other things is indeed the best outcome he can imagine.

Recalling the hidden dangers mentioned before, the smile on Ji Hui's face faded a little, replaced by a hint of contemplation.

He had actually been mentally prepared for the fact that the extraterritorial demon would be controlled by the Shattered Star Palace, just as Duncan had worried when he was first born from the flesh and blood of the Eye Demon.

Who can guarantee that he is really Ji Hui after he recovers, and who can guarantee that he will not be a time bomb in the future?

So even though he was already working closely with Duncan, he did not stop Duncan from studying his weaknesses, but just left some space for himself as much as possible.

However, this is only a delaying tactic. I must find this hidden danger and a solution as soon as possible.

While closing his eyes to rest, Ji Hui also sank into his own spiritual space, quietly feeling the power of the Eye Demon.

They carry with them a certain sour and obstructed feeling, which is a brief discomfort that comes when a breakthrough unlocks an ability, just like unblocking a meridian.

And those abilities that could be unlocked before also seemed to be warning me that forcing them open would affect my health. The closer I got, the more I could feel the trembling and soreness as if my joints were stretched to their limits.

However, apart from these powers as an eye demon, he could no longer feel anything else.

He could tell that his spiritual space was completely different from Liliana's at that time.

The soul of the fallen girl is filled with ominousness and turbidity, as if it had not been wired at all and was forced into a small computer case that was barely running. It only makes people feel messy and uneasy.

But this is just an ordinary space.

There is no emotion involved, and it will not change people's mentality.

Even when Milulu manipulated her own consciousness to weave dreams, it had no impact at all and was no different from an ordinary person.

Ordinary, too ordinary in fact.

It's even so ordinary that it makes me doubt whether the so-called control of the Broken Star Palace really exists, or whether it disappeared after the death of the real extraterritorial demon?
