Chapter 166 The Greedy Official Turns Out to Be Me?
Chapter 166 The Greedy Official Turns Out to Be Me?
The young lad looked fair and delicate, quite the scholarly type, but to everyone's surprise, he was actually a fierce youngster.
So tender, such a tender old man... he's truly adorable.
I mean... why would the young old man appear here?
Could it be that he didn't trust them, secretly followed them, and then, while they weren't paying attention, entered the Ande Kingdom from over two thousand years ago with them?
It's the Ande Kingdom, the young old man had just said so, and he also mentioned that the city they were now in is called "Eternal City."
As expected of the old man, he had barely arrived and already knew the name of the city and the name of the kingdom from over two thousand years ago.
The Ande Kingdom, two thousand years later, became history, and the so-called "Eternal City" turned into ruins.
Ruins?
Wait a minute... the Lost Ancient Domain... could it be the once "Eternal City"?
Meredith with the bunny ears turned around, carefully observing their current surroundings—a plaza.
This plaza... looks a bit like the dilapidated one they saw before entering the Teleportation Array, some of the unique buildings matched up.
And there was a small willow tree...
The position of this small willow tree... and that robust willow tree in the Lost Ancient Domain... seem to be almost the same...
The Eternal City... turned into the Lost Ancient Domain after more than two thousand years?
That's it, it must be so, this is the Lost Ancient Domain, where that small willow tree grew over two thousand years into a thick, towering tree... It didn't disappear with the years but thrived and grew into a large tree...
According to their current location, as well as information the young old man had obtained, they were now in the capital of the Ande Kingdom from over two thousand years ago, also known as the "Eternal City."
Their location hadn't changed; they were still in the same place.
Time had changed.
They, living two thousand years later, had come to two thousand years earlier because of the Teleportation Array.
To a time before the fall of the Ande Kingdom.
Meredith still had one doubt.
So, this "Eternal City" they were now in, was it an illusion?
Or was it that... they travelled back in time through the Teleportation Array... to the real Ande Kingdom of more than two thousand years ago?
A real Ande Kingdom that truly existed?
Meredith's gaze fell on the people coming and going around the plaza and the children, their reactions seemed very real.
Expressions, emotions, curiosity... all very real...
If this were an illusion...
Then the person or monster that created this Illusionary World... would be terrifyingly powerful...
You can't just go on a killing spree to verify if this is an Illusionary World, can you?
If it were the folks from the Dark Bounty Guild, they might do such a thing.
But the members of the Bronze Bounty Guild wouldn't do it...
Even if they were trapped here to die... they wouldn't do such a thing...
It doesn't matter anymore.
They have Lance here.
No matter if this world they were in now was an Illusionary World, or the real world from over two thousand years ago, Lance could lead them out.
Even though Lance became tender here... his wisdom remains...
"Such a tender old man, I thought the old men of Saint Blue were tender enough, but to think I could see an even more tender one, his rosy lips and white teeth, that fair and delicate scholarly appearance, I'm absolutely smitten..."
"Old man, you sure know how to have fun, don't tell me... you really do look adorable right now, not to mention Meredith wanting to pinch your face, I want to give it a pinch too."
The moment the young old man appeared in front of Meredith, the other members of the Bronze Guild also saw him, and they all crowded around the young old man, surrounding him.
Such a tender young old man... It was their first time seeing one.
They had seen Lance when he was old, and had just recently seen him when he was young...
Now they were seeing Lance as a youngster.
The young Lance was the most adorable!!!
Louis was just about to reach out and touch the young old man's tender cheeks when, as he raised his hand, a large knife suddenly appeared in the young old man's hand.
Seeing the knife shimmering with cold light, Louis quickly put his hand down. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire
Indeed, the young old man was brutal, wanting to chop off his hand...
If he dared to touch, the young old man would truly dare to chop off his hand.
Strange...
Why does it feel like the young old man... doesn't recognize them anymore?
"Meredith... the young old man before us... is a bit odd... If I didn't hear it wrong, he just called you an 'outsider,' the old man wouldn't call you that..."
"I was too excited to see the young old man before to notice this, but now that I have, I think... this young old man... might not be the one we know, he just looks very much like him..."
Round-faced Annie came to bunny-eared Meredith, pulled her hand, and signaled Meredith to come out with her.
Meredith understood and followed Annie to a place far from the young old man while other members of the Bronze Guild surrounded the young old man, chattering and asking all sorts of questions.
"Meredith, do you remember the sketch I drew before we entered the Teleportation Array?"
"Yes, you drew a corrupt official... the sketch turned out to be Lance."
"Before seeing the young old man, I thought I had a problem with my mindset while sketching, but seeing the young old man... I suddenly understood, there wasn't a problem with my mindset when I sketched the corrupt official.
