CHAPTER 708: CHAPTER 712: FAIRY TALE TOWN (PART 1)

Su Li detached from the previous world so suddenly that even she didn’t feel it.

One moment, she was still talking to the robot, and the next, she was already standing in the familiar Chaotic Space.

This kind of thing had never happened before.

But after giving it some thought, she realized she didn’t have much left to do in the last world, and so she accepted this turn of events in a relaxed manner.

Everything has its source, and if it’s unknown now, it simply means that the time for you to know has not yet come.

There’s no need to be too tangled up in the occurrences, as the truth will reveal itself one day.

After figuring this out, Su Li cheerfully checked on the other two living beings in the space, and seeing that their conditions were stable, she devoted herself once more to the task of strengthening her own power.

After issuing a challenge, she was undoubtedly racing against time.

If she ran too slowly, what she might lose was her very life.

What Su Li didn’t know was that at the moment of her sudden departure from the last world, a black spatial rift appeared out of nowhere.

Immediately after, a fine hand that looked like pristine white jade stretched out from within and violently tore at both sides...

What was initially a tiny crack was instantly ripped into a massive black hole.

Then a figure that was out of place with the entire environment stepped out from it.

Without the aid of any tools, he just floated in mid-air above the nebula, looking down.

The robot was still not over the confusion of losing its master, and its electronic eyes quickly scanned the strange man outside the Flying Device.

The man in white, floating like a God descending to earth, swept a detached glance below and muttered, "She is no longer here..."

Despite the distance and space between them, the robot, encased in the eggshell of an Airship that had been upgraded several times and was sturdy enough to directly crash into small asteroids, was alarmed by that one glance from the strange man, and its system fell into chaos with a constant din of beeping alarms.

"Warning, warning, danger detected, please evacuate immediately, danger detected, please evacuate immediately..."

Not finding what he was looking for, the man didn’t linger any longer. With a wave of his sleeve, he turned into a wisp of blue smoke and disappeared.

----------

At this moment, Su Li was sitting at the dining table, eating roasted potatoes.

The roasted potatoes exuded an enticing aroma, filling the entire room with this delightful scent.

But Su Li didn’t feel it was delightful.

Even the most delicious food, if eaten for fifteen days straight, would make one feel nauseous, right?

Su Li looked at the potatoes piled up like a small hill in the bamboo basket on the table, wanting to cry but having no tears.

With so many potatoes, when would she ever finish eating them all?

She felt she was quickly turning into a potato herself.

No matter how hungry she was, her hand mechanically moved at an incredibly slow pace, delivering food to her mouth.

"Su Li, after breakfast, clean up the potatoes I just dug up in the small courtyard and store them all in the cellar,"

The person outside the open door commanded loudly before leaving again.

When the morning sun is not too intense, many people with land would take this opportunity to go to the fields for farm work.

Clearly, the woman who shouted outside had already been busy since early in the morning.

Su Li’s ears wouldn’t take in anything else, only hearing the word "potatoes."

Potatoes, potatoes, why is it always potatoes...

The big basket on the table was for today’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the potatoes in the cellar were already close to filling it completely. Why continue to stuff more?

With so many of them, they would have to eat them until when?

Moreover, this family’s population was not large, being only a household of three people.

Su Li truly feared hearing from the woman who had just called out: Our family’s food for the year will be entirely provided by potatoes.

Su Li quickly shook her head to dispel such terrifying imaginations from her mind.

It was downright horrifying.

Thinking of the potatoes scattered all over the ground outside, Su Li lost any desire to eat breakfast and headed out.

This time, Su Li’s new identity was that of a simple peasant girl.

Her biggest annoyance was worrying about how to eat something other than potatoes each day.

It turned out that the original owner, like Su Li, didn’t like to eat potatoes either.

In theory, such an identity would hardly ever experience anything heart-stopping.

However, it was during a normal breakfast that she inexplicably died.

Yes, the original owner knew she was dead, but as for how she knew, she didn’t know.

In any case, she just understood that at that time, she was dead.

And then... what happened then...

It seemed like she came back to life and then died again...

In short, the original owner’s memory was very chaotic and fragmented.

In the process of dying and coming back to life, the original owner also discovered many strange things.

For instance, in their remote village, new faces would appear every month.

Although they tried their best to hide, the original owner still noticed that they were completely different from other people, as well as from herself.

But to ask her to explain why, she couldn’t articulate it.

In any case, she just felt that way, and she didn’t like these outsiders.

However, these outsiders would only stay in the village for a few short days.

)

And after they helped some villagers with things and exchanged some items, they would quickly leave.

Having perceived death, the original owner had never left her own village in her lifetime.

This time, she felt that perhaps she could follow these outsiders, always feeling that her current inexplicable state of dying and coming back to life might have something to do with the outsiders.

But before she had the chance to act, Su Li arrived.

Su Li, with a look of utter despair, stared gloomily at the potatoes on the ground for several minutes, as if her burning gaze could annihilate them.

The original owner’s entire life’s memories took no more than a second to review from beginning to end.

Her memories provided no clues to Su Li.

This small world was like a mystery mode opened specifically for Su Li.

The original owner’s greatest wish was probably to figure out the true cause of her death.

Yet, no matter how Su Li saw it, this place was filled with harmony and tranquility.

The villagers were all very kind, all people who didn’t like to stir up trouble, but in such a safe environment, the original owner still died.

Died under peculiar circumstances.

Was it an accident? Or was she murdered?

Was it for money or for lust?

Looking at the potatoes on the ground and her own slender, frail stature, barely distinguishable between front and back, it seemed that she had neither money nor beauty to be targeted for.

Perhaps she could offer some of the potatoes that filled her house.

Having grown accustomed to setting her appearance as a stunning beauty in every world, she was indeed not used to such a withered and lackluster face.

Just as Su Li was letting her thoughts wander while fiddling with the potatoes at hand, she heard the loud voice of Xiao Hua from outside, "Xiao Li, come out quickly. The village chief’s family has some outsiders visiting again today, and they are all super, super good-looking."
