Chapter 972: 973 Chapter: Lorna’s Thoughts

"Lorna is in the private room? I thought it would come out with you."

Feng Yuan glanced curiously behind Gladys and asked with a smile, and Gladys said,

"No, it seems, a bit reluctant, maybe, that matter is very important to it..."

"Repayment?"

Eyeing Gladys, Feng Yuan murmured. In fact, he didn’t have a good relationship with Gladys. However, he was quite curious about Lorna. How did such a special Spirit Beast appear? Veronia settled leisurely on Feng Yuan’s shoulder, but Agunas could sense that the other party seemed to be on guard.

Lorna has a problem? Agunas was somewhat puzzled, yet it didn’t seem quite right. Veronia’s demeanor now was more like when they negotiated with those special beings whose friend or foe status was unknown. But was Lorna truly that dangerous?

"I think it probably hasn’t..."

Before Gladys finished speaking upon opening the door, Lorna had jumped onto the table and was about to say something. Upon seeing Feng Yuan walk in, Lorna paused briefly. Feng Yuan curiously examined Lorna,

"So this is the Guardian of time and space, Lorna? Pretty impressive—"

He could sense the immense dual forces of time and space within Lorna. Staring blankly at Feng Yuan, Lorna seemed somewhat disappointed after a while. Scratching its head, the other party looked at Lorna strangely. Had it assumed he couldn’t help before he had said anything?

Xiao Ji peeked over, curiously examining Lorna. The latter reached out and mimicked Feng Yuan, scratching Xiao Ji’s neck, and then suddenly stepped back several paces. Xiao Ji looked at Lorna with some dissatisfaction. Agunas, somewhat perplexed, said to Lorna,

"Your power, it seems a bit... strange?"

This was the first time he had seen time and space powers of such high purity. To be exact, the purity of that energy was already very close to his own power. But how could that be possible? He was a Divine Beast, and Lorna was merely a Spirit Beast, even if it were of Sacred Beast Level.

It seemed to understand something, and Lorna said with a smile,

"This, is a secret—"

"Thank you for your gift—"

Hearing Lorna’s words, Gladys was somewhat puzzled, as she didn’t seem to have given Lorna anything. As for the souvenir she had bought earlier, she had asked Lanadi to take it back, and he shouldn’t have returned to Mordan yet. With a mysterious smile, Lorna didn’t explain further but slowly walked up to Feng Yuan, saying,

"You can indeed help me."

"What do you want to do? If it’s too much of a stretch, I won’t help."

Feng Yuan said, somewhat warily. He wasn’t familiar with Lorna and naturally wouldn’t help it do anything against his principles. Shaking its head, Lorna said,

"No need, what I had to do has been completed."

Gladys looked at Lorna, somewhat puzzled. She didn’t quite understand what was going on. Lorna had seemed very troubled before, so why the change now? Could it be?

Gladys eyed Feng Yuan with an indescribable expression. Could he have known Lorna at some point in time? But that didn’t seem quite right either. She remembered that Lorna was a special Spirit Beast left from the Mythical Era, and it was clear that he didn’t recognize it now. Unless there was a misunderstanding, he shouldn’t be the person Lorna was waiting for. She didn’t believe Feng Yuan had the ability to return to the untraceable Mythical Era.

Indeed, when she saw the expression change in Lorna, Gladys guessed that it must have been waiting for that person all this while, only...

"It was you."

Veronia eyed Lorna with an indescribable expression. Looking at Veronia, Lorna showed no particular emotion, merely saying as if seeing a long-lost fellow from the same hometown,

"You also survived that great destruction?"

Wanting to say something, but in the end, Veronia could only let out a sigh, lowering her head and swinging her little feet, lost in thought. Agunas looked at Veronia, somewhat puzzled, and asked,

"Do you know it?"

"Sort of, a celebrated being at the end of the era, not a god of gods."

Veronia looked at Lorna and said with an inscrutable expression. Seeing Agunas’s skepticism, Veronia turned her head and said,

"The Star God of Starlotte, it’s normal you don’t know, but its fame back then was no less than those of the Sacred Beasts."

Lorna smiled and did not argue; although what Veronia said was true, looking at Agunas, Lorna asked with some curiosity,

"You, don’t have the memory of back then?"

"It left quite early and has only just resurrected recently. Not knowing about the final period is quite normal."

Veronia glanced at Agunas and spoke calmly, snorting coldly. With his back turned, Agunas appeared to be somewhat angry. Feng Yuan looked curiously at Lorna and asked,

"Do you actually know them?"

With a brilliant smile, Lorna walked to the table and looked at Xiao Ji, saying,

"I’ve heard of them, but I never expected that they would gather around you."

"So what? What about you, though? Hiding in Mordan all this time and, moreover, your strength seems..."

Veronia looked at Lorna doubtfully. Sensing that something was amiss, Lorna laughed lightly and said,

"It’s nothing. Surviving that destruction always comes at a price, right?"

Although Lorna seemed a bit strange, seeing that Veronia held no great hostility towards her, Feng Yuan was reassured. Even though her strength seemed somewhat abnormal, it wasn’t incomprehensible; some powers that transcend the world can always create some peculiar miracles.

"Do you plan to stay here?"

While Gladys had anticipated this, she was still a bit surprised. She didn’t expect Lorna to make this decision. Feng Yuan, who was feeding Xiao Ji, looked up at Lorna and said,

"If you stay here, there could be danger. The presence of two Divine Beasts is already drawing attention; if you’re here too, those Hunters might..."

"No worries, I’ve grown up. This is my own decision."

Lorna spoke calmly. Although Feng Yuan found her words a bit odd, he didn’t think much about it, attributing it to her long absence from human contact, which might have made her speech a little abnormal.

"Then you could stay at my place."

Gladys said with a smile. Feng Yuan looked at her in surprise and said,

"Are you seriously settling down here?"

"Yes. If it really comes to that, maybe joining the Special Duty Team would be better than my current job."

She said with a mysterious smile. Feng Yuan said to Gladys in disbelief,

"What’s so good about that? Endless work every day, and even weekends aren’t guaranteed."

Holding a bouquet of flowers and waiting expectantly, Liao Yu sneezed and looked around curiously at the passersby in short sleeves. Although the nights in Maomu City were cool, it shouldn’t have been that chilly. Could he be coming down with a cold? Liao Yu scratched his head in puzzlement. Just then, someone tapped his shoulder and said,

"What are you doing? Standing here like a fool."

Turning around, Liao Yu handed the bouquet to Ye Hanlei with a slightly flushed face and said something as the two in casual wear chatted and walked into the nearby cinema.

"Aren’t your team on leave today? Why aren’t you resting?"

A female member of the Special Duty Team asked Huo Feng curiously. Although there had been no shortage of cases recently, they had become much lighter compared to before. At least now they could ensure at least one day off each week. Huo Feng glanced at the woman and said,

"Nothing to do at home."

"Eh... why don’t you talk to the captain and take a day off? Join our group for today’s mission?"

Hearing her proposal, Huo Feng hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

"Why are you guys arriving so late? I thought you weren’t coming."

Feng Yuan complained as he glanced at Qi Chen, who helplessly said,

"Do you really expect me to not put away my things first? And Yanlan is also moving things back home, so of course it can’t happen so quickly."

Unlike Feng Yuan, who could simply stuff the training equipment into Little Green Snake’s temporary space, he had to deliver the disassembled training equipment back to his new home, which naturally took some time. Hearing Qi Chen’s words, Gladys said with a secretive smile,

"Almost forgot, you guys are about to graduate~"

"And then, what do you want to do?"

Feng Yuan asked Gladys curiously. It was also unlikely that she would have anything to do with their academy’s assessments. As long as the officials of Great Xia had not gone mad, they would not allow someone who had just joined Great Xia not long ago and without special circumstances to participate in the important academy assessments.
