Bacca was still in his arms, probably unconscious. The egg stone had also disappeared. Baron gritted his teeth, trying to find a point of support in the torrent. However, the direction of the torrent was extremely chaotic, and the places he could touch and observe with his naked eye were pitifully few. He tried his best to lean up and breathe in the air, trying to push Bacca out of the torrent, but the surroundings were already invaded by the surging torrent. There was no place for him to hide from the danger.
At this moment, in the rapid torrent, Baron's back hit a huge rock. He had been following the direction of the current, so he had not noticed the danger ahead of time and successfully avoided it.
The intense pain behind him made Baron more clear-headed. He reached out his right hand and grabbed the rock he had just hit, while his left hand held Bacca tightly.
However, he couldn't afford such a stalemate. More than half of his stamina had been worn away, and his hand that was holding the huge rock was gradually loosening. The water rushed against the huge rock, and the wet surface of the rock was really difficult to climb. At this moment, the sound of water flowing could be heard from above. Baron wanted to observe the sudden change in the current, but the sound suddenly came before his eyes. It was rows of dead trees of different lengths rushing down from the upper reaches!
Barno was shocked and wanted to dodge, but time and the danger he was facing now did not allow him to react. In the next second, he was hit by the dead wood, and the hand holding the boulder was forced to let go. Just as he wanted to take the opportunity to hold the dead wood, the hillside beside him was suddenly washed away by the current. Baron looked helplessly at the gravel and soil that were flying towards him." As expected, my ability is still not enough.”Barno sighed and hugged Bacca tightly with both hands. In an instant, he was submerged in the stone flow.

Discerning Moon City, Chuanyun Tower.
The pawnshop owner that Baron saw in Discerning Moon City was sitting on a brown chair. In front of him was a long table for people to practice painting and calligraphy. The table was empty except for a long scroll. It was raining heavily outside the window, and the sky was dark, making the already dark room seem even darker.
"Chief, just like what Master Lai said, the flood that erupted from Discerning Moon City towards the mountain pass of Qi City has already ordered the outpost personnel on that road to evacuate in advance.”A calm voice came from outside the room. The pawnshop owner opened his eyes slightly and blinked twice. Then, he stood up and swept his hand across the table. The painting on the table disappeared.
"If you have something to say, say it." The pawnshop owner noticed the man's strange behavior and said indifferently.
Hearing this, the man no longer hesitated. He followed behind the pawnshop owner and asked,"Chief, your deal with Master Lai is…?”
The woman slowly walked up to the pawnshop owner and walked past them without greeting him.
After confirming that the woman had left, the man finally let go of the breath he had been suppressing in his chest. He felt relieved.
"Why, are you so afraid of her?" The pawnshop owner laughed.
"She's Guan Yue!" The man sighed helplessly. Generally speaking, women would not participate in any military affairs at all. There was only one, and that was the judge under Lord Si in Ming City. Moreover, that person came and went without a trace. Usually, no one knew where she was. Moreover, when she appeared, she did not disguise herself. No one had ever dared to stop her. A few days ago, there were rumors that she had come to Discerning Moon City. He did not expect it to be true.
"You didn't do anything wrong." The pawnshop owner shook his head and smiled. He said half-jokingly,""I just don't know what this lord came to Discerning Moon City to investigate. Could it be that she just came to see the city she once saved?”As soon as he said that, the pawnshop owner's eyes moved as if he had thought of something…
Seeing this, the man did not say anything else because he saw a flash of light on the chief's face. It meant that he had thought of something that could change the current predicament.
The two of them maintained a relatively still state as they walked further and further away…
On the other side, the woman called Guan Yue opened a room in Chuanyun Restaurant, but she didn't go in. She just stood at the door and said cautiously to the darkness inside,"I've done what you asked me to do, Brahman Snake. That's his code name, the same name as the one from the special forces unit.”
The woman looked into the room carefully, but she did not see anyone. She only saw a huge oval mirror placed in the room. Because of the angle of the light, there was nothing in the mirror.
" In that case, my 'deal' with you is complete.”The voice inside suddenly became serious, and it slowly spoke in a mechanical voice.
When the woman heard the sudden change in his voice, her expression did not change at all. She did not want to stay any longer and immediately turned around to leave. She knew that she would never see him again.

On this day, Puppeteer was still wearing his greenish-gray wide-sleeved long coat. He was pushing his cart around a small city. A small doll with two broken arms was tied to his waist. It was clattering against a string of black and white chess pieces tied to the same spot as Puppeteer. However, the people passing by did not seem to hear the voice or see him. They just walked past him and did not take a second look at his strange clothes. They were also not affected by the sound.
His face was full of smiles, as if he had just done something incredible.
But in the next second, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened. As if he had sensed something, his eyes suddenly widened and looked at the sky. It was still daytime, and there were no stars, but his gaze seemed to penetrate the atmosphere and look at the universe.
"He's dead? How is that possible?" He said in surprise, and his expression changed. However, he quickly regained his calm and said,"In other words…there are other existences that shouldn't exist that reversed my chess game?”
" How troublesome, but…" He smiled." This way, I won't be bored."”His ghost-like eyes moved, and his entire person disappeared from the spot along with his small stall.
No one in the crowd reacted to this.
