During breakfast, looking at the drowsy Little Dragon Girl, White Crow, and Siamese, as well as Fafnir who was reciting modern history points while eating, Xue Dinglu began to relax from thinking about the apostles.
"By the way, where is the child?" Aunt asked Xue Dinglu while wiping the drool from the corner of Xiaolongniang's mouth.
The aunt was naturally asking about Xue's youngest daughter, the insect-eating tree, whom she had also met.
Xue Luding then remembered the unfortunate child. She hadn't spoken for so long in the consciousness space that Xue Luding had almost forgotten about her. It seemed that the child had stopped speaking after he turned the Ninth Apostle's corpse into Jin Ke La.
Fearing something might have gone wrong, he immediately checked his consciousness space and found that Little Tree Mother seemed to be asleep. This was what made Xue Lude feel uneasy. Can trees sleep? She shouldn't have that ability, right?
Soon, Xue's Law discovered the change in the Seed of the World: the seed split open, and it seemed that a seedling was blooming on the Seed of the World.
Even with the naked eye, the saplings are gradually growing stronger.
Only then did he remember what his mother had said: the Ninth Apostle's body would help Little Tree Mother grow and take human form.
After all, the Divine Tree itself blossoms and bears fruit by absorbing spiritual energy, and the apostle's half-body is one of the most spiritually potent treasures.
Back inside, Xue Dinglu explained, "She should be transforming into human form. She should come out in a few days."
"Yay, my little sister is coming! I'm not the youngest anymore!" Little Dragon Girl put her hands on her hips, looking like she was going to be the older sister, seemingly never quite satisfied with being the youngest member of the family.
Although she was actually half a head taller than Fafnir, that was because Fafnir was too short.
Xue Luding pinched the little guy's face hard, suspecting that even if Little Tree Mother appeared at home, this silly child would still be completely fooled by his sister.
Forget it, let them be.
As he was getting ready to go to school and leave home, Fafnir suddenly said, "Teacher, I have an exam tomorrow, it will last for two days."
"Hmm?" Xue Dinglu looked at the child, then thought about his own school tomorrow, and said, "Then I'll take you to the exam venue tomorrow. Is it over in the science building? I know that place very well."
"Okay!" Fafnir left immediately, seemingly energized to study again.
Thinking about what kind of expression she would have if she knew that the class times for part-time and full-time university students were completely different, Xue Dinglu suddenly had a bit of a urge to tease her.
But since things have come to this, let's go to class first.
……
While Xue was attending classes, he watched the Seed of the World sprout and grow.
A clumsy teleportation portal opened in Jiangcheng.
The moment the old ghost Barak opened the door, he saw a bustling street with cars and people, delivery drivers flashing like yellow lights as they weaved through the traffic, and all sorts of shops and signs.
And that familiar, sweet-smelling air!
"Hehe, it's done! Alora, look, I told you the coordinates were right, it's done! Everything is done! You naturally evil little devil Xue, and Daigo, I, Barak, am back! I've finally found this place!" The old man was so happy he almost jumped for joy.
When he saw the familiar vehicles and streets, Barack was moved to tears.
He finally returned here, back to the world where the dream began.
Here are Xue Xiaozi, Daigo, Ultraman Tiga, and countless other strange and wonderful things. This place seems to be his Garden of Eden. For old Barak, the Empire and that world have long since lost their connection.
If it weren't for Alora, he wouldn't even want to care about anything there. He had always wanted to find Earth's coordinates, and he missed this world, which felt like his second home, terribly.
Whether it's the inherently evil Xue Xiaozi or Daigu.
Behind the portal, the former High Priestess Alora, dressed in leather armor as an adventurer, slowly walked into this world.
Seeing such a bustling city with her own eyes, she was instantly awestruck.
Previously, she had only seen a corner of a modern city in Ultraman on her phone, but it was like looking at flowers through a fog. After seeing this bustling city with her own eyes, she was truly shocked.
However, the former pope said directly, "Grandpa, I already said that Ultraman is fake; it should just be another form of opera."
“I’m telling the truth, and I mean it. Do you think you know more than me? Let me tell you, right there in Salem, Boston, I, Xue, and that little girl named Hermin, turned into light together, just like when we fought Gatanothor. Your grandpa really did turn into light, and together with Xue, we controlled the Giant of Light and fired a laser at that giant tree thousands of meters tall! Why don’t you believe me?”
Old Barack always boasted to his granddaughter about his past achievements. He used to doubt whether the light was real, but after Boston transformed into the light, he stubbornly believed that there must be a giant of light in this world, that the light was real, and that he believed in the light.
"Sigh, Grandpa, you... fine, fine, you're right, you really did become light, didn't you..." Alora was speechless at her grandfather's antics.
She also watched the video where her grandfather praised Ultraman, and well...
It's like a fairy tale for children...
But Grandpa actually believed it to be true, and even said that he had transformed into the Giant of Light.
She rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on. Her grandfather had always been like this, so stubborn, he wouldn't listen to anything she said.
But there was nothing she could do; after all, he was her last remaining relative.
Barak, having lived in the modern world for a few days, was far more familiar with the former female pope than she was, and immediately began to introduce her.
"Alola, look, those are cars, like the ones the GUTS ground forces drive. They can move people without any magic. And those in the sky are drones. And that tall tower in the distance is the signal source that people in this world have been using all along..."
"Look, we've finally arrived! Over there is a school, a place where children go to school. In this world, any child can study normally and doesn't have to go hungry. And over there, that's a hospital, where anyone can get treatment and medicine at incredibly low prices. And there's a park, a commercial street, and residential buildings... We're back! We're finally back!"
Old Barak introduced the world to his granddaughter as if it were his own treasure. He actually only knew a little about this place, but he was so happy that even though he only knew the names of many things, he wanted to tell his loved ones about what he liked.
Perhaps, for him, this world truly is as beautiful as a white moonlight.
In his most perilous, disheartening, and painful moments, when he was betrayed by the entire empire and abandoned by the world, it was the story of that friend Daigo in this world that lifted him up.
Similarly, it was that Xue Luding kid who seemed to have truly practiced the same behavior as Daigo, which allowed him to completely get rid of the body of the dead and regain his former noble demeanor.
For him, this world was as beautiful as a dream, and he would even dream of living in this world for only a few short days.
And now, the dream has come true!
Breathing in the air of this world, he seemed to find even the technological scent in the air to be incredibly sweet.
"Come on, I'll take you to find Xue Xiaozi and Da Gu. I want to go to Da Gu's concert and get his autograph and take a picture with him!" The old man was thinking about chasing after his idols again.
He couldn't wait to take his granddaughter, but when he arrived at the intersection, he suddenly froze.
Where is Xue's house again?
Old Barak knew roughly what the area around Xue's house looked like, but now, in this suburban area, seeing this beautiful world of steel and concrete, he completely lost his sense of direction.
Where exactly does Xue Xiaozi live?
He immediately scratched his head, desperately searching his memory for information about Xue Dinglu's neighborhood.
However, he was a bit eccentric during that period, and Xue Dinglu was actually quite a homebody before that, not going out much, especially when Old Barak was constantly bothering him in his consciousness space, he went out even less.
This meant that he only knew what Xue Dinglu's house and the neighboring vegetable market looked like, and he was completely clueless about other information.
"Wait a minute, Grandpa, you don't actually know the way, do you?" Alora looked at old Barak with a look of utter disbelief.
"Um... well... actually, if you just dump me in that area, I should still be able to recognize which house belongs to Xue Xiaozi..." the old ghost awkwardly tried to cover up.
"So you're saying you don't recognize this place at all?"
"You can't say that. At least I'm quite familiar with this world. Give me some time, and I'll be able to find it..." Old Barak felt a little embarrassed. He quickly found a higher slope and began to observe the terrain of the entire Jiangcheng, trying to find a place that matched the house in his memory.
However, the city of Jiangcheng is too large, and being the provincial capital with its towering skyscrapers, it makes the search even more difficult.
After looking around, the old man scratched his head, feeling that everything seemed possible, but nothing quite seemed quite right.
"Um, let's go in and take a look first..." Old Barak scratched his head, looking quite embarrassed.
"So you still haven't found it?" Alora stared with dead fish eyes; she was completely impressed by this old man.
"Cough cough, it's not a big problem. With the size of this city, we can just search the whole city and we'll definitely find it. It won't take more than thirty days..." Old Barak hurriedly tried to salvage the situation.
"Sigh, let's go then." She could only sigh, and at the same time, she felt the rules of this world.
Magic is almost completely banned! Every bit of magic used is permanently depleted.
And so, an old man and a beautiful, mature woman dressed as a wandering knight stepped into this unfamiliar yet bustling city.
Chapter 324 The Wonderful Adventure of Old Barak and His Grandson
"Grandpa, couldn't you have been a little more accurate in your location?"
Looking at the bustling metropolis with its steel and concrete structures and heavy traffic, where buildings hundreds of meters tall are everywhere, severely obstructing the view and exploration, Alora rubbed her temples again, feeling a headache coming on.
"Your grandpa only learned about teleportation when I was an undead. Being able to accurately locate this world is already an extraordinary achievement. What's more, I've located the exact city instead of some remote mountain village. I think I'm already quite capable. But you want me to accurately locate Xue boy's side? That's something grandpa really can't do!"
Old Barak simply couldn't do it. He was a paladin, and more of a warrior, so his magical chanting skills were at best mediocre, even now.
Old Barack felt he was already quite accomplished that he was able to successfully locate the phone in Jiangcheng using the method Xue's law provided, instead of inexplicably being located in Boston, halfway around the world.
He couldn't possibly meet any higher requirements. He was worried that he might accidentally end up on another planet, and he even thought of transforming into armor to protect his granddaughter.
Alora was even more troubled. She was in a completely unfamiliar world, and her grandfather, whom she had initially thought was very reliable, turned out to be just as unreliable as she had been.
However, there wasn't much blame. Just as old Barak said, he was originally just a paladin, not a professional mage. Being able to teleport here was already an extraordinary achievement.
It's mainly this world...
The absolute ban on magic means she dares not use magic at will. Every bit of magic she uses is gone, and her mana bar will only decrease and not increase. This means that they can only use a few spells at most before their magic is depleted.
In fact, when the people of the Silver Kingdom first arrived in this world, they were also under Absolute Magic Ban. However, at that time, Old Watson only used Animal Communication twice, which did not consume much mana. At the same time, they were in a state of being hunted down and were too nervous to notice this. By the time they discovered Absolute Magic Ban, they had already encountered Xue's Law and were then thoroughly beaten up.
Therefore, not daring to use magic only made things worse.
Strolling down the street, old Barak stared blankly at the diverse crowd around him.
He had never been to Jiangcheng before; the farthest place he had ever been was the vegetable market at the entrance of Xue Dingli's village.
Then I observed the world through tokusatsu dramas, but now I've discovered that even Xue's city seems more prosperous than the one in Ultraman.
Children arrive at school in all sorts of vehicles. In the distance, a large group of elderly men and women are practicing a slow martial art in the square. And the strange traffic lights are dazzling to their eyes.
In fact, the people from Silver City probably had the same expression when they first arrived here. They gradually came to understand and adapt to this world after studying in the prison for two weeks.
Although their advantage was that they had some understanding of this place through tokusatsu dramas, they were actually completely clueless.
Essentially, it's like putting a modern person without a cell phone directly into a city in another country; they would be completely bewildered.
Clearly, their attire and appearance quickly aroused the curiosity of the locals.
After all, Barak had a scraggly white beard, wore cloth armor, and carried a greatsword on his back, while Alola wore ranger leather armor with two swift swords and a hammer. Their outfits both looked like cosplay.
It's just that their weapons are of such high quality.
Soon, a young woman who appeared to be a college student couldn't resist approaching. Seeing their Western features, she organized her thoughts and asked, "Hollow, are you going to the anime convention?"
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Old Barak was stunned for a moment.
He understands Chinese, and his level is high enough that he can communicate with Xue's Law in Chinese without any problems, but the moment this young girl opened her mouth, old Barack lost his confidence.
Did I wear this to the wrong place?
"No, so you can speak Chinese. Excuse me, are you going to a comic convention?" the female college student continued to ask, her eyes lighting up slightly as she looked at the two men's worn-out armor and their weapons that looked quite appealing.
"A comic convention?" Old Barak asked in return.
"You might not know this term, but it's a gathering place for people like you. Let me see, there really is a comic convention in Jiangcheng these days!" The female college student suddenly became interested.
"People like us?" Old Barak suddenly realized, "So this world has become this advanced? They, as visitors from another world, can even have a place to gather. That's great."
Old Barak's idea was simple: since the visitors from other worlds could have a gathering place, it must be related to Xue's Law. And as long as it was related to Xue's Law, they could follow the clues to find his location and then hold a large-scale family reunion.
The plan goes through!
“Yes, that’s right. So where’s the comic convention?” Old Barak immediately replied.
"It's the convention center in the distance. Let me see, it's 14 kilometers away from here," the little girl said.
Old Barak immediately wrote down the address, then thanked the little girl profusely. After agreeing to take a photo with the female college student, he excitedly returned to his granddaughter and said, "Aurora, Grandpa has gathered intelligence!"
"Oh?"
"There's a gathering place for people from another world in the distance. That should be where Xue kid set up his business. That makes things much easier. As long as we go there and follow the clues, we can easily find Xue kid," Old Barak said.
Arora thought it made sense. She knew too little about this world, and for some reason, after seeing so many skyscrapers in person, she suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Since things have come to this, she figured she should just follow Grandpa's advice. That was her thought.
Although I feel like there's something wrong with it, it doesn't seem like a big problem.
So the group started asking for directions as they walked towards the anime convention venue in the distance.
……
Xue Luding, who was in class, sneezed.
"Who's cursing me?" Xue Dinglu thought to himself, his physical condition shouldn't be so bad that he would sneeze.
He is now a proper fourth-tier mythical level, not the near-fourth-tier level he was before. His physical abilities are such that he can endure for several hours even in a vacuum.
He checked his phone; nothing seemed to be happening today. Perhaps he would go to the Ninth Apostle's home planet after Little Tree Mother took human form.
