The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

Seeing that they still wanted to say something, Long Xiaofeng shook his head, untied the bag from his waist, and carefully placed it on the ground.

"Alright, the result is good, so don't worry about it too much... The mage should add another layer of protection to the artifact. The previous one was triggered, so it's useless now."

Long Xiaofeng's words contained a lot of key information, leaving everyone speechless for a moment.

In the brief minute that the smoke was detonated, an assassin not only caught the captain alone, but also nearly stole the artifact in a one-on-one duel with the captain.

If I were the one holding the divine weapon, would I have been dead just now?

Such a powerful Rank 8 assassin, I wonder which family trained him...

Just as they were lost in thought, the magician's exclamation jolted them awake.

"What's wrong?" They looked in the direction of the voice.

Faced with so many questioning gazes, the young magician became agitated, gesturing wildly with his hands, but his mouth was stammering.

"Heavy...heavy...weight...the weight is wrong!"

"What do you mean?"

Long Xiaofeng sensed something, suddenly stood up, and grabbed his collar with both hands: "Speak seriously, speak slowly!"

"The weight of the artifact box... is... lighter... lighter!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

An eerie silence fell over the room.

They tacitly focused their attention on the artifact box on the ground.

The delicate little red box lay there quietly.

Only then did they realize that the artifact and the artifact box were two completely different things.

From beginning to end, they had no idea what the artifact looked like.

Long Xiaofeng felt a chill run down his spine. A terrifying thought crossed his mind, but he was unwilling to believe it was true.

He knelt down, his hands trembling as he gripped the lid of the red box.

"Click——"

Everyone's heart was in their throat, their eyes fixed on the small red box.

It seemed to receive a magical signal and slowly opened the box lid.

There was nothing inside.

Long Xiaofeng and his teammates looked at each other in bewilderment.

-----------------------

The Bai family residence in the Lower District.

The severely injured Bai Jinxuan lay slumped over her father's desk.

An 8th-level martial artist's kick nearly killed her on the spot. At that moment, intense pain surged into her brain, rendering her completely unable to think, and she couldn't even perform the routine task of sneaking into the shadows to avoid secondary damage.

That delicate body rolled on the ground for a long time.

She didn't know how many wounds she had, but she knew she had won.

With the power of her mind, she opened her handbag, took out a black cube, and placed it in front of her.

"Well......"

Ignoring the excruciating pain that felt like her whole body was falling apart, she pursed her lips and searched through the treasure chest for the item she wanted.

Suddenly, she smiled.

Clearly, she found it.

"Hehehe...this is...the new divine artifact..."

Although the girl was very weak, her face was full of relief and pride.

She slowly moved her hand over and caught the magical artifact that was falling from mid-air.

It was a dazzling gem shaped like a rabbit, which emitted a brilliant white light the moment it landed in my palm.

Healing Amulet (Artifact) (Bound)

[Consuming 1 stack of energy allows you to heal injuries of any level, automatically regenerating to the maximum of 3 stacks within 24 hours.]

An indescribable energy surged through Bai Jinxuan's body, instantly erasing all her pain as if it had never existed.

She jumped up with a start, and in shock, she held up the precious treasure in her hands.

"Holy crap, that's awesome?"

Ever since Bai Jinxuan learned that she was immune to all drugs, she had never expected to recover with life-saving drugs. When she chose to take Coach Long's kick, she was already prepared to stay in bed for a few days.

I originally just wanted to try this amazing device out of curiosity, but who knew it would be so powerful that it completely restored my health.

"Now I have extended battery life too!"

She picked up the healing amulet, smiling like a child, but a wave of resentment washed over her.

"Seriously, why does this gadget look like a primary school student's badge? No wonder it was packed so securely in a box. Who would believe it's a magical artifact! But it's still quite cute, and the bunny is adorable~"

"Hmph, fortune favors the bold, and I, Bai Jinxuan, am the biggest winner!"

"Coach Long, can you withstand this move, the culmination of eight years of skill?"

I Am Your Deceased Emotional Sustainment

Volume 1: Chapter 127: The Girl Between God and His Messenger

At night, everyone sees the sky differently.

Some people watched the thunder and lightning, unable to remain calm.

Some people lean against the window, missing their old friends, unable to fall asleep.

Others, holding their treasures and packing their gear, sat quietly in the trees, gazing at the bright moon.

Unlike the lower city, which was ravaged by thunder, the upper city, floating in the air, was very quiet.

After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Bai Jinxuan slowly stood up, lightly tiptoed in her women's boots, and leaped into the air.

It was already 4 a.m., and even in the upper city area, most people were already asleep.

After all, not everyone can keep drinking energy potions and working like crazy.

Bai Jinxuan walked across the street with her hands in her pockets.

She wore a knee-length black trench coat, paired with a skirt and thick black tights, giving off a mafia boss vibe.

Plus, the way she pinched her scarred face while taking a bath—wow, that's so cool!

To be honest, she had originally wanted to wear a monocle and transform into a one-eyed queen, but after looking in the mirror for a while, she gave up on the idea.

It's not that it's too childish or too attractive. In the upper city, where everyone is an explorer, people are already used to the so-called 'strange costumes'.

After all, all kinds of props have their uses, and given that he has been fighting monsters for many years, it is perfectly normal to have some hobbies and styles.

A young man who was covered in flashing lights and even had his own sound effects just walked by; my clothes are nothing compared to that.

The main problem was that the single eye mask was too tight around my hair and it wasn't very comfortable.

She doesn't really care about hairstyles. She usually has long, straight white hair, but now that she's in a new role and doesn't want to reveal her hair color, she ties it up in a bun and covers her head with a hat.

Eye masks are such a hassle; if they're too loose, they'll fall off, and if they're too tight, they're uncomfortable. Plus, they tend to slip off while you're walking.

Wearing a hat is still more comfortable.

Bai Jinxuan reached up and touched her head, pulled up her hood, and continued walking forward with her hands in her pockets.

The Upper Town is a glamorous place. Even late at night, it is still filled with brightly lit shops, and you can hear the noise from inside as soon as you get close.

Some workers who don't need to sleep, or sleep very little, often come to the malls, bars, dances and other entertainment venues here to relax and have fun during their breaks.

Filled with curiosity, Bai Jinxuan peered into the ballroom and saw purple and pink lights shining in the spacious area. There were many small stages inside, where men and women were swaying their bodies to extremely dynamic music, while below the stage, a group of people were hugging and kissing each other.

Bai Jinxuan thought it was a Venus flytrap party inside...

Her curiosity vanished, she shook her head, and continued walking towards her villa.

In fact, she had been doing that for half an hour.

After obtaining the healing amulet, the first thing to do was, of course, to quickly help Yao's parents treat their Oripathy. However, when she actually arrived near the villa, she hesitated.

The quiet villa seemed to be under some kind of magic, preventing her from moving forward. Every time she tried to step inside, some kind of irresistible force would appear, keeping her outside the door.

And so she wandered around the upper city for half an hour, and only now did she understand what that force majeure was.

It's a little embarrassing to talk about, but after she confirmed it repeatedly, that...

It should be fear.

She stood in front of her villa, clutching the silver gem in her hand.

The thought that even a divine artifact might not be able to cure Oripathy filled her with fear, and she even had thoughts of running away.

But... we have to face it eventually.

Bai Jinxuan took a deep breath.

Life is full of changes and setbacks, and these things will not improve if you run away from them. On the contrary, running away will only make things worse.

Unlike the heroes in those movies who are fearless, she is often more timid than little girls who scream and panic at the slightest fright.

It is because of timidity that one is cautious in everything; it is because of timidity that one feels fear and apprehension.

They were afraid that things were getting out of their control, and that the magical artifact they had fought so hard to acquire would not be effective.

To be honest, Bai Jinxuan herself felt a bit pathetic. She had done a perfect exam, but she hesitated to submit it and let reality test whether her answers were correct.

She was afraid of making mistakes.

However, she was more afraid of doing nothing.

She was never one to run away from things; once her parents were gone, she decided to live alone.

If you don't have enough money, then drop out of school, steal, rob, go to the black market or the underground city, it's all a way. You won't know the outcome if you don't try.

If you ask her if she's afraid, the answer is of course yes. But even if she's afraid, she has to keep moving forward. That's how she's always been.

Bai Jinxuan may be afraid, but she never runs away. She may make a tactical retreat, but those who owe her or those she has her eye on will have to pay the price.

It's the same this time.

She closed her eyes and took a step forward.

Although this was the villa she bought, she inexplicably started to feel guilty as she walked in.

"It's okay... If it fails, I'll think of another way..." she whispered to herself, trying to comfort herself.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself standing in front of the villa gate.

Using the magic key to open the door, she sneaked inside and entered Yao's parents' room.

They slept peacefully in a double bed, with faint smiles on their faces.

Bai Jinxuan pursed her lips, trying to calm her emotions as much as possible.

In terms of combat power, they are all only at the second tier, while I am at the third tier. It wouldn't be difficult to use the artifact on them without waking them up.

She carefully took steps closer to the two of them.
