It seems that just like himself, the reason he came to this world was also because of Gemini.

The ferryman seemed to be consciously sending the other captains to this world.

Memories began to flash back, but Adam discovered that the captain’s last memory before he was poisoned was that he was in a sea of fire.

Various weapons were scattered all over the beach, including Yulandel’s spear and Rita’s sickle.

“This is impossible!”

Adam couldn’t believe the memory.

It was obvious that Huo Dou had been thrown out of the world by him at that time, so how could he come back and kill these soldiers?

Adam was silent for a moment, and began to make a decision in his mind.

“Yuexia, take Ji Zi and Fu Hua back first.”

“Human, why!”

When Yuexia heard that Adam actually wanted to leave here first, she looked at Adam in disbelief.

I had clearly found an opportunity to help Adam with great difficulty, how could I go back so easily!

“Be obedient. I must go to the Imperial City and find the stargazer to find out the reason.”

For Adam, all the mysteries now revolve around stargazing.

If nothing happened to Adam, I’m afraid that the whereabouts of the missing Xiaote would only be known by stargazing.

“But, I can also…”

“Please, I have Xiaozhi to protect me, I’ll be fine.”

Adam gently touched Yuexia’s head at this time. He knew that Yuexia was very worried about him, but there were some things he had to do.

“Ha, vampire, don’t worry! With me protecting him, no one can hurt this guy.”

Xiao Shi, who was standing by, also walked over proudly and made a promise to Yuexia.

Yuexia also knew that if Adam wanted to sneak into the imperial city, he would definitely not bring too many people with him.

Xiaozhi’s abilities were extremely useful in infiltration, so she was the only one who could take these people to heal.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely accompany you after we get back, okay?”

“Human, you must keep your word.”

“I never break a promise.”

After Adam made repeated assurances, Yuexia had no choice but to leave with the two of them.

“Ah, we finally left. So now we have to go back?”

Xiao Shi stretched at this time and asked Adam.

“Well, but that place is not easy to enter. I have to rely on your strength. Now my strength is suppressed a lot. The specific micro-manipulation depends entirely on you.”

“Ha, don’t worry, I, Madam Herrscher of Knowledge, have never failed!”

Xiao Shi will never miss any opportunity to brag about himself.

After determining the direction, Adam immediately took Xiao Shi and headed towards the imperial city again.

The city was heavily guarded at this moment. Arrows rained down from the towering walls, sending up dust in the streets. Soldiers within the city, clad in thick armor and armed with spears, patrolled vigilantly. Their gazes were sharp as swords, scanning every passerby, not sparing a single suspicious individual.

“Listen up, everyone!” The leading soldier stood before the crowd, chest puffed out, voice loud and firm. “Anyone showing any suspicious signs will not be spared! To protect the Sage King, you must complete your mission, even if it means death! Our city is under threat from an external enemy, and we must remain vigilant!”

His words echoed through the crowd like a thunderclap in their ears. The soldiers’ hearts surged with emotion, their fighting spirit boiling. In unison, they raised their weapons, determined to face the challenges ahead.

However, they didn’t realize that under their tight encirclement, Xiao Shi and Adam walked right past them.

Thanks to Xiaoshi’s ability, these soldiers even led the way for the two of them respectfully.

As a Herrscher who can control the other party’s consciousness, in some aspects, Xiaozhi is even stronger than Corrosion and Domination.

“My lords, the palace is just ahead, and the Sage King is inside.”

At this time, the soldier who led the two of them spoke respectfully to Adam and Xiaozhi.

“Well, we understand. You can go down first.”

Xiao Shi casually dismissed this ignorant idiot and looked at the palace ahead with Adam.

For some reason, Adam felt increasingly uneasy.

Chapter 430: A Very Different Way of Stargazing

Adam and Xiaozhi walked into the palace, and were surprised to see a vast expanse of emptiness. They were filled with doubts.

The situation here was completely different from that in the city. While the city was clearly filled with guards and soldiers, once you stepped into the palace, it felt like you had entered another world. All around was silent, and a gloomy atmosphere hung in the air.

“What the hell is this? Why is there not even a single person in such a big place?”

Xiao Shi couldn’t help but complain at this moment. Is there really someone who lives in a place like this and doesn’t even need a maid? If it’s so easy to sneak in, doesn’t that mean she is useless?

She was clearly ready to show off her skills.

“Be careful. Stargazing is very good at setting up some formations. Maybe there is a trap here?”

At this time, Adam reminded Xiao Shi, although he himself was also very curious as to why there was not even a single person.

Even the so-called trap, Adam and Xiao Shi did not find any signs after walking around.

Is it so certain that stargazing is impossible for anyone to come here?

With doubts in his heart, Adam brought Xiaozhi to the door of the stargazing room.

The rich sandalwood scent wafted out of the room at this time, which made him frown.

“Pretend to be a ghost!”

Faced with the situation of having nothing along the way, Xiao Shi immediately kicked the door in front of him.

She had been looking forward to this for so long, but in the end there wasn’t even any danger. It was such a waste of her feelings.

However, when she kicked the door, she couldn’t help but scream.

“it hurts!”

After kicking once, Xiao Shi hugged his legs and screamed.

I saw a formation pattern appear on the door of the stargazing room. I didn’t expect that the formation that had never appeared before would be set up on the door of the stargazing room.

“This is too insidious! They put it in this place specifically!”

Xiao Shi’s anger was almost full at this time, so he immediately took out his weapon to break through the formation and rush in to teach Guanxing a lesson.

But before Xiao Shi could destroy the formation in front of him, another formation appeared under his feet the next moment, causing him to fall directly into it.

“What the hell!”

Xiao Zhi, who didn’t expect such a thing to happen, was directly teleported away by Guanxing. The whole process was calculated by Guanxing.

Smoothly and without delay.

“The captain is here, right? Come in, the door is not locked.”

After Adam watched Xiao Shi being teleported away, he still did not move in front of the stargazing door until the stargazing voice came from the room.

It seemed that Guanxing had anticipated Adam’s arrival. Before, Guanxing had been waiting for Adam’s arrival.

Adam was not at all surprised that Guanxing teleported Xiaoshi away. It seemed as if some kind of tacit understanding had been formed between the two of them, and they had already anticipated what the other would do.

In response to the invitation to stargaze, Adam then walked into the room.

At this time, Guanxing was lying on the chair, looking at Adam lazily.

In front of her, there was a table full of food and wine. It seemed that the other party had been waiting for Adam here for a long time.

“I guessed that you would come to see me today. It seems that I was right.”

A smile appeared on Guanxing’s face at Adam’s arrival, but in Adam’s eyes, there was a bitter taste.

“Yeah, I really didn’t expect you to change so much. Tell me, what exactly happened?”

Adam sat opposite Guanxing, looking at the stars quietly, waiting for her answer.

“Even if you knew about this, what would it matter? I had originally planned to take this opportunity to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the Huang Empire, but I didn’t expect you to come back so suddenly.”

Guanxing raised his wine glass and took a sip.

“Captain, why don’t you try some? These drinks are what I once tasted with an old friend in a small town. Although they’re not particularly good, they do have a unique flavor every now and then.”

Adam didn’t say anything, still watching the stars quietly.

“Really? You still don’t understand what I did? Or are you frightened by what I did?”

“If it was just something like this, I’d have experienced it countless times. I’m used to being frightened.”

“Really? That’s good.”

After hearing what Adam said, Guanxing picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of food and put it into his mouth.

However, the meal carefully prepared by the chef made Guanxing frown.

“Bad news! I already told you this dish has to be warm when it comes out! Bring it down and redo it for me!”

As Guanxing waved his hand, all the dishes on the table were scattered onto the ground.

Two maids appeared from nowhere and quickly cleaned up the stains on the ground.

Adam watched all this quietly. From the expressions on the maids’ faces, he could tell that they were already accustomed to everything they saw. It seemed that this was not the first time that Guan Xing had lost his temper so casually.

“You’ve changed so much, I almost didn’t recognize you.”

“Yes, although we arrived here only three months apart, I have actually been on the deserted island for three years. In such a long time, so many things have changed.”

Guan Xing said to Adam slowly at this time: “It’s been so long… that the evil spirit broke the seal and appeared in this world again. It’s been so long that even the person most important to me couldn’t protect me.”

“the most important person?”

Adam seemed to understand something when he heard this.

Looking at this palace, there is indeed something missing.

If you think about it carefully, Rita, as the prime minister, is not waiting here, and he has not even heard of Yulandel, as the general.

Thinking of the sickle and spear before.

Adam finally seemed to understand things.

“Yes, both General Youlan and Prime Minister Rita have died at the hands of the Huodou, and even the Huang Empire was nearly destroyed. I considered asking for help from the other two countries, but they just sat back and watched, not taking any action. Even the envoys we sent have been lost.”

Adam understood why Guanxing hated Fu Hua and Ji Zi so much.

So it was because the two of them did not offer any help when the Huotou attacked?

However, Adam discovered something strange at this time… This memory was obviously different from his own.

“As expected, I now exist as a captain in your eyes?”

Adam finally understood that he would be away for more than three months.

This time is definitely much longer than I thought.

Chapter 431: Poisoned Wine and Restarted Spacetime

“Xingxing, I guess this isn’t the first time you’ve sealed the Hutou, right? Or maybe the Hutou has been sealed outside this world a long time ago.”

“It seems that you know a lot, Captain. Indeed, a thousand years ago, I defeated the Futou together with my companions. However, a thousand years later, for some reason, the Futou reappeared.”

After hearing Guanxing’s words, Adam felt that the timeline should be correct this time.

Based on my own memory and the captain’s memory, it seems that I came to this world a thousand years ago.

The captain arrived here three years ago.

The time difference between the two of them is almost a thousand years.

Adam also didn’t understand why there was such a big difference between his time and the time he spent stargazing.

Is this the Ferryman’s plan, or is it the world bubble’s fault? How did this world bubble exist for so long?

To him, the mystery before him was like a puff of smoke that took a long time to dissipate.
