Chapter 41 The Twelve Titans, The Twelve Demigods.
Everyone thought that the story on the sky should have ended with the death of Little Gray Hair.
But the next second, the scene suddenly changed.
In that familiar, dust-covered ruin.
The little gray-haired creature miraculously jumped up from the ground unharmed.
This scene left everyone watching the sky in awe.
Many people exclaimed in shock, "Is it haunted?"
Just now, she had been confirmed dead, and almost all the blood in her body had drained away.
But now, Little Gray Fur doesn't look injured at all.
It's practically brand new, brimming with energy.
Little Gray blinked, curiously looking around at its surroundings.
The people of Douluo Continent looked at the architectural style in the picture and felt a strange sense of familiarity.
The style of those ruins is strikingly similar to that of many buildings on the Douluo Continent.
However, this land has long since become a desolate ruin.
Little Gray's gaze swept around and soon spotted the still-burning train wreckage in the distance.
A hint of worry flashed across her eyes for a moment, then she fixed her gaze on a corner not far away.
Dan Heng was sitting against the broken wall, his fate unknown.
Little Gray Fur walked over quickly, squatted down, looked at Dan Heng's pale face, and couldn't help but tease him:
"That landing was pretty cool, buddy."
She reached out and checked Danheng's breath, feeling its faint yet steady rise and fall.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, can finally be put at ease.
Suddenly, the scene of my first encounter with Danheng and March 7th flashed through my mind.
She collapsed inside the Black Tower space station and was discovered by Dan Heng and March 7th.
She remembered that Danheng seemed to have tried to give her artificial respiration at the time.
At this thought, a seductive voice seemed to ring in Little Gray Fur's ears, constantly clamoring:
"Go ahead and do it!"
That voice was like the seductive music of a demon.
After hesitating for a long time, Little Gray finally bent down and approached Dan Heng, wanting to revive him with artificial respiration.
A slight smile played on her lips as she murmured to herself:
"I'm sorry, Danheng."
But just then, Dan Heng, who was lying on the ground, suddenly gave a weak response:
"I'm sorry... what?"
Little Gray was startled by the sudden sound.
She sat up abruptly, a look of panic flashing across her face, looking exactly like someone caught doing something wrong.
She quickly scratched her head and forced a dry laugh to cover it up:
"No...it's nothing, I'm just sorry I couldn't protect you."
Danheng slowly opened his eyes, staring blankly at the lively little gray-haired boy in front of him.
His eyes were filled with disbelief and shock.
Just now, he had tried everything he could, but he still couldn't save the lifeless little gray hair.
How come she acted like nothing happened after only being unconscious for a short while?
However, despite his shock, seeing that Little Gray Fur was safe and sound, Dan Heng's heart finally settled down.
He supported his still slightly dizzy head and slowly got up from the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them explored the surrounding area in the ruins.
I also tried sending a message to my fellow passengers on the train to let them know I was safe.
No matter how hard they tried, the message seemed to sink without a trace and could not be sent out at all.
The pace of the scene on the screen quickens here, with many details being glossed over.
In the video, Little Gray Fur seems to have heard some strange noise.
So she and Danheng traveled together, exploring the terrain of Onpharos by following the sounds.
They saw a huge sphere floating in the sky.
Little Grey Fur also took the March 7th camera and enthusiastically took many photos.
Then, following the sound, the two discovered an argument coming from a distance.
A white-haired man in a blue robe suddenly rushed out from the shadows.
Without saying a word, he snatched the baseball bat from Little Gray Hair's hand and got into a fight with Dan Heng.
The baseball bat was incredibly hard, and it actually split Danheng's long spear in two.
Just as the two sides were about to engage in a fierce battle, with swords drawn and tensions running high.
A little girl with red hair suddenly jumped out.
She frowned and reprimanded the white-haired boy in blue and white clothing with a serious expression.
The conflict was finally brought to a close.
After that, Little Gray Hair and Dan Heng traveled with these people.
Not long after, a huge blue creature appeared on the screen.
Its body is enormous, with its body alone being as tall as two or three people.
With its long neck, if you stood on its head, you could probably see very far.
Their limbs are thick and strong, each one as big as the waist of three adults.
Yet this enormous creature is merely a mount used by people to travel in this world.
This scene terrified both humans and spirit beasts on the Douluo Continent.
This blue creature was larger than that of a typical ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
Just by charging in like that, he could probably easily injure an ordinary Title Douluo.
Such a terrifying behemoth is merely a means of transportation?
It's simply unbelievable, utterly inconceivable!
The scene continues, showing Little Gray riding the blue earth beast, traveling with his companions to a city called Ohma.
Along the way, Little Gray and his friends fought side by side and defeated many enemies.
He also met Xia Die, and together they fought against the enemy.
After arriving in Ohm, Little Grey and Danheng settled down in the city for the time being.
While helping the city's residents solve various problems, they waited for the opportunity to make contact with the train crew.
At the same time, they promised the people in the city that they would never reveal anything about the outer world.
But things didn't go as planned. One day, Little Gray Hair and Danheng went out to play.
Someone offered to take their picture as a memento.
The photos of other worlds in the album were accidentally seen by someone else.
Now, Little Grey and Danheng have inadvertently revealed the secrets of the Outer World to the people of Ohma.
The scene suddenly changed.
Little Gray Hair and Dan Heng's hands were tightly bound with gold thread.
The text on the sky then appeared, introducing the two people in front of them.
Standing before them was a woman of motherly age with an extremely beautiful appearance and a romantic temperament.
She was dressed in a gorgeous gown, her eyes seemingly lifeless, but the golden threads wrapped around her hands could sense the emotions of others and distinguish between lies and truth once they touched them.
Behind her stood a girl with purple hair.
The girl, also dressed in an exquisite and beautiful dress, had a somewhat dazed expression on her face; it was Xia Die.
But who would have thought that this seemingly gentle and harmless girl possessed the terrifying ability to kill upon contact?
It was only because Little Grey and Danheng failed to keep their promise to Aglaia and leaked the news about the outer world.
Aglaia looked at the two calmly and slowly said, "I will ask you four questions."
"I will test you with four questions. A dishonest answer will cause the golden thread to tremble, while a sincere response will leave no ripples."
"And the number of times the gold thread trembles... is the number of steps the executioner will take."
"If she does not walk behind you after the four questions, then you two have passed the test."
"Otherwise, your journey will have to end here."
Standing three steps behind Little Gray Fur, Xia Die still had that blank, gentle expression on her face.
She spoke softly, as gently as a feather:
"I simply fell asleep to the gentle fragrance of flowers, without a trace of pain..."
"I promise."
Under the sky, everyone in Douluo Continent felt their hearts tighten at the sight.
If Little Grey's answer doesn't satisfy Aglaia this time, he'll be sentenced to death!
Some people seemed to have realized something as well, perhaps...
Like Firefly, this little gray-haired creature died more than once in Onphalos.
In that case, everyone thought that Tang San was about to suffer another complete defeat!
...
"Did you have two chances to lie?"
After hearing Aglaia's words, Little Grey secretly glanced at Danheng beside him and muttered to himself.
There was an obvious hint of relief in his tone.
Aglaia's gaze remained unchanged: "If you treat life as a game, then so be it."
Dan Heng took a deep breath and reassured them in a calm tone, "No matter what she says, Pioneers, as long as we have a clear conscience, that's enough."
Little Gray nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
Seeing this, Aglaia said no more and slowly said, "Then let's begin... the first question."
"Strangers—why have you come to Onphalus?"
The little gray-haired boy's lips curled up instantly, his eyes filled with a hint of provocation, and his tone was extremely arrogant:
"To turn this place upside down!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the golden silk thread tied to her wrist began to tremble violently.
Aglaia remained expressionless, her voice still calm: "A joke cannot hide your true feelings."
"Opportunities are fleeting, and you've already wasted one."
"The second question."
"Strangers—why have you extended a helping hand to Ohma?"
Little Gray's face immediately fell, revealing a look of disappointment.
She closed her eyes, shook her head, and spoke with a hint of defiance:
"I regret it. I shouldn't have made that move at all!"
The golden thread on her wrist trembled wildly once again.
Aglaia shook her head gently, her tone indifferent: "Anger consumed you. Remember that."
"The third question."
"Stranger—if the situation were to change drastically, would you be willing to turn your knife against Ohm and its citizens?"
The little gray-haired boy's lips were still slightly upturned as he said dismissively:
"I use a baseball bat, not a knife."
The golden threads trembled violently, as expected, proving the existence of the lie.
Aglaia was speechless for a moment, her tone tinged with helplessness: "Trying to get yourself killed with your glib tongue?"
"I can be satisfied, let's record that as a step."
"One last question."
"Stranger—a surging, unknown power resides within you… Are you willing to use it to assist the Golden Blood in slaying a god?"
Little Gray Fur's eyes widened suddenly, his face filled with confusion and disbelief:
"You were able to notice that?"
The golden thread trembled slightly, a small movement, but it still did not escape Aglaia's perception.
"Answer questions with questions, strong doubt, resistance. Record this as a step."
Aglaia's voice finally took on a cold, judgmental tone: "The four questions are complete."
"The gold thread revealed your wavering. It's a pity that neither of you passed the test."
"You two may be a ray of hope descending upon Onpharos, but you may also be... a threat to Onpharos."
"I have no choice but to close the door of fate for you."
Dan Heng clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth and growling:
"It's incomprehensible that we're being decided by a vigilante justice..."
Seeing this, Little Gray immediately put on a panicked expression and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Someone help me—"
Dan Heng shook his head in disappointment, his voice filled with helplessness:
"Here... there's probably no one who can hear our cries for help."
Aglaia's eyes remained unwavering, her tone resolute: "For the Holy City, I am willing to adopt all the despised traits in the world and use every cold but effective means."
As she spoke, she turned to look at Xia Die, who was standing behind Little Gray Fur and Dan Heng, and whispered the instructions:
"Xia Die, offer a kind farewell to our guests."
Xia Die slowly walked up to Little Gray Fur.
Her voice remained gentle, carrying a reassuring tone: "Don't be nervous..."
Little Gray Fur suddenly closed his eyes, his body trembling slightly, and cried out in a tearful voice:
"Don't come any closer..."
Xia Die's voice was light and airy: "Please... relax."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Die gently placed her slender white index finger on the little gray hair's pulse.
A cool sensation penetrated Little Gray's skin and then slowly seeped into her meridians.
Xia Die then touched a second finger... and then a third.
Until her half-palm gently grasped Little Gray's left wrist.
A faint fragrance of an unnamed flower quietly entered Little Gray's nostrils.
The fragrance was sickeningly sweet, with a lingering aftertaste that made her gradually forget the meaning of breathing.
Little Gray quietly closed his eyes, his vision gradually blurring.
The cold reality was replaced by a dreamy purple ocean—the fragrance of flowers from Xiaodie's mouth.
Then, Little Gray finally understood...
She is welcoming her own sweet death.
