The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

Even in his original body, without the help of the dream monsters, he was easily defeated, let alone now that he has been turned into an ant.

"In that case, I'll lend you some."

Huang Quan stretched out her hand, and a ball of power formed in her palm.

Like a tiny black hole, the power, though not abundant in total, still affected the surroundings, as if the colors were being sucked away.

"As expected of Mei, she can control such powerful energy."

Feeling that strange, ethereal power, Bai Zhi immediately gave a thumbs up.

"It's not about control, it's just that I have a strong tolerance. One day, my skin will ulcerate, I will lose my memory and senses, and I will let my existence become nothingness in dreams and hallucinations."

"Until then, I will do my best to do what I want to do."

Huang Quan looked up at the sky and sighed.

The future of those who self-destruct is almost predetermined: they will be swallowed by nothingness.

The stronger one is, the slower one will be swallowed up, but the future is inevitable.

"That's not necessarily true. As long as Mei stays by my side, that's enough. As long as I'm here, Mei can always happily eat her little cakes."

Bai Zhi casually picked up the small black hole and carefully poured some into Luo Er.

She didn't dare give him too much, fearing that it might kill him.

That would be pointless and a waste of all her efforts.

Huang Quan was momentarily dazed. It had been so many years; it seemed like it had been a long time since anyone had said anything like that to her.

The last time I heard this was when my comrades from Izumo were still alive.

Many of my memories had become blurred, but after being temporarily healed by Bai Zhi last time, those memories seemed to become clear again.

Those days are truly unforgettable.

"My dear Mei-san, would you do me the honor of having a candlelight dinner with me?"

After confirming that the energy input limit had been reached, and that further input would cause the device to exceed its set limit and break down, Bai Zhi casually discarded Luo Er and then extended her hand to Huang Quan, inviting him to join her.

Looking at Bai Zhi, who was bowing slightly like a gentleman, Huang Quan smiled and then placed his hand on the armored man's hand.

"I hope it will be a dinner that I'm satisfied with."

"Will do!"

Bai Zhi took Huang Quan's hand and slowly walked out of the alley.

Chapter 574 Fireflies: I Was Here First

"Mei, the cake is here."

After placing the fragrant little cakes on the table decorated with candlelight, Bai Zhi reached out and casually took Huang Quan's hand.

Then, the power of the horse talisman was activated instantly, and the self-destruction effect of the void was instantly cleared away.

"Well……"

Huang Quan murmured softly, although this wasn't the first time he had experienced Bai Zhi's healing abilities.

But this feeling was still somewhat irresistible. Originally, in her world, everything around her was slowly losing its color, vitality, and all the attributes that could represent existence.

She knew that when the world in her eyes turned gray and would never move again, that would be the moment she completely vanished into nothingness.

Under the healing power of Angelica dahurica, this terrifying feeling subsided, and the world became vibrant again.

"Thank you!"

Huang Quan looked at Bai Zhi and said seriously.

"You're welcome. After all, I said that as long as I'm by your side, you can always happily eat little cakes."

Huang Quan's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. He simply picked up his knife and fork and began to savor the sweet cake in small bites.

Bai Zhi, on the other hand, rested her head on her hands and silently watched Huang Quan's actions.

"Damn it! This guy is still chasing girls, still chasing girls!!"

The bruised and swollen man, limping, stared at the two people sitting there, his face showing displeasure.

If Bai Zhi were here, she would definitely recognize him as that unfortunate child from the hunting dog family named Malone.

"My uncle is nowhere to be found. This guy must have used some kind of trick. He's done all that, and he still won't leave. He's still here flirting with girls. I'm so angry!"

Malone gritted his teeth. Not long ago, he had been carelessly thrown into a certain place by Bai Zhi and had just woken up. After waking up, he immediately ran to the place where the battle had taken place, wanting to find his uncle.

As a result, apart from one ant, not a single hair could be seen.

He tried to contact his uncle by phone, but couldn't reach him either; it was as if his uncle had vanished into thin air.

Enraged, he stomped on the ant and then patrolled the area, hoping to find someone.

As he patrolled along the way, he saw the gray-haired girl next door, but Bai Zhi wasn't with her. After walking quite a distance, he arrived at this cake shop and saw Bai Zhi having a candlelight dinner with Huang Quan.

This infuriated him.

However, this time he didn't recklessly rush forward.

Even his own uncle couldn't beat the other guy, so if he went up there, it would be pure suicide.

However, it doesn't matter. He still remembered seeing that gray-haired girl when he patrolled over before.

A while ago, this guy was really close to that gray-haired girl, and after he mysteriously disappeared, the gray-haired girl was very eager to find him.

Now this guy has hooked up with another one. It's obvious that his other female companion is unaware of his womanizing nature.

If only I could lead that girl here.

"Hey hey hey..."

A sinister smile crept across Malen's face.

There have been countless accidents involving machetes in this universe.

Moreover, in their decadent and intoxicating Pinocchio, which is like an amplifier of desire, they basically produce one every now and then.

Although the gray-haired girl didn't seem to have much fighting power, the tall, purple-haired mature woman looked like she was quite strong.

Such a person is definitely very jealous and unwilling to share with others.

If I get angry, I might take advantage of the guy's inattention and stab him.

He understood women's jealousy all too well.

Thinking this, he stood up and limped away.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

Under Bai Zhi's gaze, Huang Quan blushed slightly, a rare occurrence, and then picked up a small cake and handed it to Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi shook her head, then pushed with her right hand, "My current situation is rather special, and I have a competitive relationship with Pinocchio, so to be honest, it's not appropriate for me to be here."

"They're competitors..."

Huang Quan immediately understood, "No wonder you're wearing such armor."

Huang Quan paused for a moment, then said, "But it looks great. Compared to your previous petite and cute appearance, you've become a bit more handsome."

Bai Zhi was immediately annoyed. "What do you mean by petite and cute? Does Mei think I'm just a little kid?"

Huang Quan's lips curled up slightly. "Although what you did doesn't seem like something a child would do, you look just like one. If you have any other thoughts, that would be too sinful."

"And now he really does look like a mature and gentlemanly knight."

Bai Zhi felt even more depressed. It turned out that it really was because she was too short.

No, I have to find a way to grow taller. This is the most important thing in my life, and it concerns my future happiness.

"Long, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you for so long."

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Bai Zhi's ears.

She turned her head and saw two familiar people: Maren, a member of the hound family, looking smug, and Liuying.

“Miss Liuying, I’ve found the person you’re looking for.”

Seeing Bai Zhi clearly stunned, Ma Lun laughed even more heartily.

You've been chasing girls all over the place, now I'll show you what a real battlefield is like!

Looking at Liu Ying, who showed concern for her and harbored a hint of hostility towards Huang Quan, Bai Zhi felt a bit numb.

"Ahem, Firefly, this is Miss Huang Quan, my friend."

"is it?"

Liu Ying always felt that her emotions seemed a bit irritable.

Her mind told her that although "Dragon" was her colleague, he also had his own life, and she had no reason to ask who he was dating.

Moreover, he didn't even know whether the "dragon" was male or female.

But for some reason, the scene of her colleague taking her out to eat before inexplicably popped into her mind.

Look here again, they're also eating small cakes, and the table is even full of candles, clearly a candlelight dinner.

"I was here first! Whether it was eating cakes or sitting there chatting..."

"Hmm... Firefly, why don't we sit here for a while? Actually, Huang Quan is also very pitiful, just like our entropy disorder."

Bai Zhi cautiously suggested, as she had a feeling that the fireflies in front of her seemed to exude a dangerous aura.

There's a feeling that if I say something wrong, the other person might immediately turn into a Samgan.

"I hope it's just my imagination..."

Bai Zhi swallowed hard; this was a scene she had never experienced before.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhi glared at Ma Lun with displeasure. She had kindly let this guy go, but he repaid kindness with enmity. Did he have no morals at all?

Chapter 575 The Shura Field Between the Underworld and the Fireflies

"She's like us?"

After Bai Zhi said those words, Liu Ying was stunned for a moment, and then the slight bitterness and grievance that had risen in her heart subsided considerably.

Seeing the change in Liu Ying's expression, Bai Zhi knew that this statement was probably true, so she quickly nodded, "That's right, Huang Quan is very pitiful. She suffers from an incurable disease, just like our entropy disorder."

"So she also came to ask you where the Dragon Lord is?"

"I ask with some suspicion," Liu Ying asked.

Huang Quan glanced at Liu Ying, then at Bai Zhi. Having experienced so much, she gave a half-smile and nodded. "That's right, I am indeed looking for that Dragon Lord."

"Without her, these little cakes would probably taste bland to me."

Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Huang Quan cooperated, otherwise her identity would have been exposed.

"Yes, Huang Quan suffers from the symptoms of self-destruction, Liu Ying, you should know that, right?"

Seeing that this tactic worked, Bai Zhi continued the conversation on this topic.

"Self-destruction?!"

Liu Ying covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise. She knew about the self-destructing beings; when she was investigating her illness, she had read a lot of information and documents.

Among them, the self-destructing ones caught her attention because, in a sense, the two were very similar.

The symptoms of self-destruction include skin that becomes like rotten, withered wood, covered with scars and holes.

Some people's endocrine systems begin to malfunction, making them unable to distinguish between joy and pain, and they become numb to everything; some people lose their memories, some people lose their senses... They seem to have been deprived of the meaning of life by some existence, and can only see their own figures disappearing into a black hole at the end of a horizon in their dreams and hallucinations.

Entropy loss, on the other hand, is when a physical structure falls into an irreversible, chronic dissociation.

This means you are slowly disappearing, and this "disappearance" is so subtle that it is difficult for others to even notice—you can still run, jump, and communicate with others.

Everything seemed so normal, except you were always a little slower than everyone else... and then slower and slower, until the outlines of yourself and the whole world became blurred.

You can't distinguish between dreams and reality because they both become equally fragmented and ephemeral.

Now, the firefly's hostility towards the Yellow Springs completely disappeared, replaced by a strong sense of empathy.

She believed that others were suffering similar pain to hers, and indeed, it was quite similar.
