Chapter 1113: Chapter 507: Advancing to Legend

"Where’s the Shadow Fur Ball?"

Mu You glanced at the shadow behind Ling Long, but he didn’t feel the presence of the Shadow Fur Ball.

In Ling Long’s memory, the part about the Shadow Fur Ball was also very vague, as if it had disappeared a long time ago and never appeared again. As for how exactly it disappeared, because the memory was too messy and jumbled, Mu You couldn’t find it right away.

"It was tricked away by that deadpan face!" Ling Long immediately said indignantly.

"Medicinal Plant Gatherer?" Mu You asked.

"Yeah, that guy was so shameless, said he’d return it in a day, but as soon as he took it, he pretended to have amnesia. I’m telling you, he’s the real ’greedy’ one!" Ling Long mentioned this and was so annoyed that she looked at Mu You with a face full of grievance, like a child tattling to an adult: "You have to stand up for me, that was given to me by you!"

"What does he want the Shadow Fur Ball for?" Mu You was somewhat puzzled.

"Who knows, but ever since little ball ball was taken away by him, I’ve never seen it again. I don’t know if that guy hid it or lost it..." Ling Long pouted.

Mu You also couldn’t help but frown after hearing this. It wasn’t likely that the Medicinal Plant Gatherer lost the Shadow Fur Ball, but it seemed he was indeed secretly up to something.

"I’ll go down and have a look," Mu You suddenly got up and said.

The place he mentioned, of course, was the underworld. From Ling Long’s memories, he knew there was also an entrance to the underworld in Rose City, and it was right inside this palace.

"Go ahead, but I’m not coming, it won’t work without me outside." Ling Long said nonchalantly, then took out a stone plate from her body and handed it to Mu You, "Take the Gemini Stone with you, use this to contact me if anything comes up."

Mu You took the stone plate without asking what it was, as Ling Long’s memory had already answered that.

The Gemini Stone, as the name suggested, was two stone plates that always maintained the exact same state. Any change that occurred in one, be it a crack, a bump, or a scratch, would immediately appear on the other, akin to quantum entanglement in the magic world.

Additionally, these items also had the ability to self-repair; no matter what kind of damage appeared, it would quickly return to its original state with time.

This was an item Ling Long bought casually from a traveling merchant on the eve of the Great Cataclysm last era.

This thing seemed to have no practical use, but Ling Long quickly discovered that the stone plate could be used in the underworld.

You see, in that ghastly place, even the Game System could be blocked, and it was very difficult for people inside the underworld to send messages to the outside world, and vice versa.

But the conductive properties of this pair of stone plates could cross dimensions; no matter how far apart, any text engraved on one stone plate would immediately appear on the other, thus achieving real-time interaction both inside and outside the underworld.

Mu You nodded, put away the stone plate, and prepared to leave.

"Don’t you need to call Little Lanlan to accompany you?" Ling Long suddenly asked.

"Uh, no need to bother her, I’ll take them..."

Mu You gave a dry laugh, pointing at the dozing orange cat and the miniaturized Bone Dragon by the table, his eyes somewhat evasive.

He didn’t know what the fairy girl had gone through in these four thousand years, but to him, she was just an NPC who had appeared in text games the day before, and today was actually their first official meeting. Her overly enthusiastic feelings towards him at first meeting had somewhat overwhelmed Mu You, and instinctively, he wanted to dodge.

"No need to explain, I understand... But still, try not to neglect her too much, that kid, it hasn’t been easy for her these years..." Ling Long gave him a meaningful look.

But no sooner had she said this than her eyes quickly brightened, her gaze fixed on the distant tightly closed door.

Mu You followed her gaze, and at that moment, in front of the stained glass door, lit by outside light, a woman’s figure could clearly be seen crouching at the door eavesdropping, the familiar shape of a Wizard Robe – who else could it be but Fuya?

She probably didn’t expect the glass in this door to be one-way...

Ling Long’s entire demeanor suddenly perked up, like a hunter who had spotted her prey. She quickly made a shushing gesture to Mu You, then picked up her skirt and tiptoed cautiously towards the door.

Mu You helplessly shook his head, without minding the two, and walked alone towards the deeper part of the palace.

Seconds later, Fuya’s scream indeed echoed from behind.

By then, Mu You had already reached a basement deep in the palace.

The basement was empty except for several Round Giant Stones piled up in the center of the floor.

Mu You easily pushed the stones aside, revealing a pitch-black entrance the size of a well shaft below.

This was an entrance to the underworld within Rose City; such branch entrances were also numerous in Bitter Garden, scattered across Sky City, and over the years the three of them had gradually discovered most of them, which were then directly filled to prevent others from mistakenly entering.

"Master!"

Just as Mu You was about to jump into the hole, a blue figure sped towards him.

The fairy girl flew to Mu You panting heavily, obviously hurrying over.

"Master, are you going down to the underworld? Do you need Lan to lead the way?"

"Uh, no need, you go on and rest, I can manage by myself," Mu You reflexively declined.

"Lan doesn’t need to rest, and the roads in the underworld are complex and intertwined, you might get lost without someone familiar to lead the way, let me lead the way..." the fairy girl said, hopeful.
