Night of Despair-Chapter 491 - 489 Exchange One
"Did it really change course??"
Yu Hong walked to the window, staring in shock at the scenery outside.
Within the colorful lines, those gray faces indeed no longer rushed in the previous direction, but instead turned, diving straight into another vortex, and soon their numbers dwindled until they disappeared.
Watching this scene, the fatigue on Yu Hong seemed to gradually dissipate.
"It seems like, perhaps, I can really change something...."
"Should we record this?" Fisina suddenly said, "All the way here, I noticed you don’t seem to keep any log of your experiences."
"What’s the use of a log?" Ku Chan asked.
"I don’t know, maybe to combat forgetting, it always serves as a memento." Fisina shook her head.
"Then record it, you’ll be in charge of it." Yu Hong glanced at her.
"...." Fisina was speechless.
Leaving the world of that neurotic bald Superpower User, Black Black Spirit slowly began to accelerate in the Wind Disaster.
As Yu Hong’s Power increased, it seemed even the ship’s speed improved along with it.
Day by day passed.
The next world was long overdue.
Everyone on the ship returned to their previous routine lives once more.
Yu Hong continued diligently practicing the Chaotic God Heavenly Eye, and unknowingly, more than a month passed.
Tap.
Ku Chan stood by the window, gazing at the passing colorful lines of the Wind Disaster, his eyes distant, unsure of what memories he was reliving.
Fisina and White Dragon were whispering behind him; since Fisina took on the task of keeping a log, she had proactively resumed guiding White Dragon.
It seemed she had now found her key position on the ship.
Footsteps echoed up the stairs.
Yu Hong slowly walked up.
"Outside is always like this, no dawn, no night, so we can only use clocks to determine time." He sighed.
"Yes, but it’s been so many days and we still haven’t arrived; we might have traveled to a very distant place this time." Ku Chan frowned.
"We’re almost there, I sensed it, which is why I came up to prepare." Yu Hong walked to the window, gazing outside.
"It’s here!"
Bang!!
The next second, the ship crashed into a black vortex, disappearing in an instant.
This time there wasn’t much tumbling; the enhancements last time seemed to have strengthened many details, and in terms of balance, the Black Mark patched this shortcoming for the first time.
In the black vortex.
In less than two seconds, Black Black Spirit rushed out, entering a grayish-yellow expanse.
"What is this? Yellow fog?" Ku Chan approached the window, looking outside.
Outside the window was shrouded in a thick yellow substance, making visibility extremely low, only allowing vague outlines of something moving in the distance.
Yu Hong also frowned, moving closer to look outside.
Sizzle!
Finally, Black Black Spirit seemed to have dashed out of this yellow region once again.
Outside the window, it suddenly opened up to reveal a vast expanse of grayish-yellow sky.
The sky was actually yellow.
Both of them were somewhat surprised, but when their gazes moved downward, they revealed even more astonished expressions.
"What the... is this place!?" Ku Chan rarely used such words to describe things.
But at this moment, he really didn’t know how to describe what he was seeing.
Underneath the grayish-yellow sky was a vast complex of buildings constructed from yellow cardboard.
Towering skyscrapers several dozen floors high were actually all built from cardboard with textures and logos.
Not only that, Yu Hong even saw groups of cardboard-shaped people between these buildings!
These people had dense horizontal lines on their bodies, with faces beaming with bright smiles, as if everyone was in a good mood.
But when Yu Hong enhanced his eyesight for a closer look, he discovered that all these smiles were drawn on with black pen.
Moreover, the cars, birds, and cats and dogs between the buildings were all made out of the same kind of yellow cardboard.
Their movements appeared quite unnatural, not smooth. It was like a series of fixed animation frames being flipped through.
"What the... where have we ended up?" The others also realized something was amiss and gathered by the window, gazing out.
Yu Hong didn’t speak, instead, he gazed into the distance.
At this moment, the safe house was high in the air, seemingly tilting and plummeting away from this city of cardboard.
Foll𝑜w current novℯls on ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm.
He looked in the direction where Black Black Spirit was about to fall.
Ten seconds later.
Bang!
The whole safe house heavily hit the ground, carving a deep trench in the earth before quickly settling into silence.
Yu Hong went to the Main Control Room and looked out of the circular window; amazingly, the ground they crashed into was also cardboard-like.
The dirt that splattered was all paper scraps too.
On the right side of the safe house was a river meandering and flowing, filled entirely with yellow paper scraps.
Fish made of paper occasionally leaped from the river, seemingly startled by the safe house’s impact.
"It’s stopped." Ku Chan followed him to the Main Control Room.
"Do we want to go out and take a look? This place... feels quite peculiar."
"No need. We won’t stay long and will soon be on our way." Yu Hong couldn’t think of what help this world might offer him.
"We’ve come this far, don’t you feel it’s a waste not to experience it?" Ku Chan said, "If I weren’t following you, Captain, I’d never have known such a bizarre world existed."
"If you want to go, then go." Yu Hong chuckled; it was rare to see Ku Chan like this.
"Then I’ll go out first and see if it’s safe, and then everyone can come out for some fresh air, okay?"
"Alright." Yu Hong nodded. "Just twenty minutes."
"Understood."
Immediately, Ku Chan went out to find the others.
Only Yu Hong was left alone, standing with his hands behind his back in front of the circular window, looking out.
In the grayish-yellow sky outside, even the sun was a large ball wrapped in yellow cardboard, continuously emitting light rays resembling yellow paper scraps.
The paper scraps shot out but disappeared soon after.
Click.
The door of the safe house opened.
Yu Hong saw Ku Chan stepping out, cautiously stepping onto the ground.
After confirming it was solid and could hold his weight, Ku Chan continued moving forward.
Before long, he stopped by the river, crouched down, and stirred the river water with his hand. When he brought his hand up, there was not a drop of water, only paper scraps.
Having walked around and confirmed no danger, Ku Chan returned to the safe house.
After a few minutes, soon everyone, including Fisina and White Dragon Gabriela, carefully walked out of the safe house.
Initially, they were a bit reserved, but soon they let loose.
Fisina found a paper bug in the grass and started playing with it in her hand.
Yiyi also got off the ship and tinkered in the river.
Rustle!
A sound of paper scraps rang out.
She actually caught a more than one-meter long big yellow fish with both hands from the river!
The yellow fish was also made of paper, twisting and struggling in her hands.
Hiss.
Chi Xiao was about to say something when the next moment he saw Yiyi tear the fish apart. It fell apart into a piece of yellow cardboard.
Tore it apart!?
His old eyes widened, but before he could say anything, he saw Yiyi fold the fish back up.
Thwack.
The big yellow fish slapped Yiyi across the face and leaped out of her hands, back into the river.
"It can do that?" Chi Xiao was dumbfounded.
Not only was he stunned, but the others were also dumbfounded.
Soon, Ku Chan plucked a grass from the ground, carefully unwrapped it, and flattened it into a sheet.
After a few seconds, he reassembled it.
The grass was still intact, and even the basic scratches were automatically restored.
"What the heck is this place!??" he was genuinely shocked.
But in the next second, he thought of something.
"Wait, if the paper here all has this property...."
He quickly dug up a bunch of paper-soil from the ground, and then spread it flat.
After a few seconds, these soil fragments connected to form a large sheet of paper.
Then, Ku Chan began practicing his childhood skill: folding paper cranes!
With dexterous hands, he swiftly folded the large sheet of paper into a human-sized paper crane!
Once it was folded, he waited for about ten seconds.
The paper crane clicked, and its wings moved!
Under everyone’s dumbstruck eyes, it flapped its wings and flew into the air!
"It can do that!!?"
Everyone else was also stunned. Soon, they all started learning from Ku Chan.
Digging up paper from the ground, spreading it flat into large sheets, and then folding.
Quickly, someone folded a little pig, which ran around on the ground.
Someone folded a warship, which actually started up when placed in the river, even puffing a little smoke, and moved quite swiftly.
While everyone was having a great time, in the Main Control Room, Yu Hong saw something else important.
’This paper is so magical! If I use it to make a Talisman Array, talisman paper? It might create a special talisman with vitality!’
His first thought was of battle.
’Secondly, it could be used to test some dangerous areas. But on this note, I have the Fear Shadow, so it’s unnecessary.’
Watching the joyful people outside,
Yu Hong unknowingly also relaxed.
This place really didn’t seem dangerous; the folding activities gave him a momentary illusion of returning to childhood.
Twenty minutes quickly passed.
Ku Chan gradually led everyone back into the safe house.
Each person brought back a small folded paper work of their own.
Yiyi was even more straightforward; she dug soil, using the safe house’s large containers, and filled three entire boxes with paper-soil.
While others were playing, she was digging soil; while they were folding animals, she was digging soil. When others started using folded things to fight each other, she was still digging soil.
Buzz.
Black Black Spirit began to start again.
The colorful lines around interwove and appeared. The whole safe house started gradually sinking into it, disappearing.
Yu Hong looked at the scenery outside, gradually watching everything be submerged and obscured by colorful lines.
He exhaled.
Knock knock knock.
"Come in." Turning around, he saw Yiyi carefully pushing the door open and stepping in, "This is for you."
She took out what she was hiding behind her back.
It was a butterfly folded out of paper.
The butterfly was entirely yellow, with wings flapping gently.
"Thank you..." Yu Hong smiled, reaching out to take the butterfly, placing it on his shoulder.
"Hehe... it’s really fun here. If only we could always stay here." Yiyi laughed.
"Yes... it’s quite interesting." Yu Hong nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, he had a premonition that this world might just be the beginning, a turning point.
In the future, the subsequent worlds would change rapidly, far beyond those encountered before.
Black Black Spirit sailed steadily and quickly through the Wind Disaster.
The colorful lines around were like waves, alternating between rapid and slow, and occasionally, meteors with faces would brush past, diving into some nearby black vortices.
