My different world is game mode.

"Is it haunted?"

There were no overtures, no attacks, and no other moves.

This being, which could respond to his actions, kept dealing with him in the canyon for a long time.

By this point, Lindsay had completely lost track of the other party's purpose.

"What do you mean?"

"It can't be some inexplicable eighth or ninth stage boss, trying to amuse me here, right?"

"Hey, hey, hey, hey! Can you hear me?"

"Can you at least say something? Or I'll just stand there and you'll chop me?"

"You are a machine without independent consciousness that can only respond to my actions? In the future, the mechanical race will reach its peak and create some weird time machine, and it will become like this now?"

"Or... the air friend I made in [Black Mountain World] finally came to find me?"

Lindsay racked her brains, listing various situations and trying to communicate with the other party.

Just as he was thinking about whether to use the [Magic Conch], Lindsay finally stopped the temptation.

On the one hand, he really couldn't communicate with the other party.

This guy didn't affect Lindsay at all, and not even a wisp of dust in the canyon was disturbed by him.

And the other most important question.

It was because in front of the canyon, the atmospheric touch had already brought the dust kicked up by the horse's hooves into Lindsay's ears.

——Alice is here.

After such an obvious enemy appeared.

An elusive being that will not launch any friendly or hostile attacks on oneself is not that important.

blah blah-

A figure on horseback emerged in front of the canyon.

Lindsay had excellent eyesight, aided by his sense of atmospheric touch, and he immediately determined the specific composition of Alice's team.

Except for the upright girl leading the way in front.

There were five men and two women riding horses in the back.

Among them, Lindsay clearly identified five awakeners at the seventh stage, while in the remaining two, there was no source reaction at all.

Or maybe Lindsay is currently unable to see through the other party's cover-up.

"It can hide its existence better than the seventh stage."

"Is it that his ability in this area has been strengthened, or is it that... he has become a stronger awakener?"

"..."

"No, let's talk to her."

Lindsay lowered her voice.

He is a man who knows his own strength very well.

If the people Alice brought were at the eighth stage, Lindsay would never have used the equipment she had on these "friendly forces".

Lindsay checked the time again.

"Well, it's better than expected."

"Alice is late."

In half an hour, the [Central Energy Tower] below will be completed.

By then, Ye Haiya will throw the [Time Anchor] into it, and everything that happened in the chaotic time and space will be settled.

As things stand, Lindsay has a huge advantage.

——He and Alice are not mortal enemies.

There is still the possibility of negotiations between the two sides.

As long as you delay the time to half an hour later, no matter how unhappy the other party is, he can only accept the result that time returns to normal.

The subsequent development was just as Lindsay had expected.

Alice rode her horse to the canyon 20 meters away from Lindsay. She reined in the horse, then jumped off and said to her companions behind her:

"Everyone, the person in front is my companion."

The other men on horseback did not dismount.

The man who seemed to be the leader, and one of the two people that Lindsay couldn't see through, smiled at Alice, then looked in Lindsay's direction.

"Oh?"

"This young man..."

The man's tone gradually lowered.

Even though she was dozens of meters away, Lindsay felt as if her body was being carefully examined by something.

Even the protection granted by [Wind of Freedom] was completely seen through.

——The secret of the Anthroposophical Code has been discovered!

Lindsay's expression froze, this was the first thing he thought of.

At this moment, the man on horseback spoke again:

"Alice, your companions are also very good."

"I can see that you have a common goal, but to reach the end of the journey, there are some things that you will need to resolve on your own."

"Whether I succeed or fail, I'll do my best." Alice nodded and then walked towards Lindsay.

But just as Lindsay and Alice both thought that the two sides were about to start a 1-on-1 conversation, or a fight later.

The man on horseback waved to Lindsay from a distance, and his enthusiastic and energetic voice rang out in the canyon:

"Hey, boy, I know you!"

"A legendary adventurer who helped Bena establish the [City of Law]!"

"I am Roland, the righteous man from the [City of Law]. Now that we have met today, we can be considered acquainted!"

"..."

Lindsay is a little bit nervous.

The other party was so friendly, even a bit like a fan.

Obviously, it was because of the achievements he made at the beginning of the establishment of the [City of Law].

But that’s fine too.

At least I don't have to deal with enemies whose strength is beyond my imagination by myself.

At the same time, Alice stepped forward.

Amid this energetic greeting, the upright girl walked up to Lindsay:

"Lindsay, you're one step ahead of me."

Lindsay shook her head and smiled:

"You also know that I have many skills and am faster than others, so I have an advantage in this regard."

While talking, Alice glanced around the canyon.

A skill that is several times more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and the experience of being with Lindsay for a long time and going on adventures together.

It allowed her to identify the hidden entrance into the canyon.

Combined with Lindsay's deliberate decision to stay here, although she couldn't guess the other party's specific intentions, she also knew that this meeting was by no means accidental.

"You're waiting for me here?"

Lindsay nodded:

"I want to have a good talk with you."

Lindsay knew there was no point in lying to Alice, so he spoke his mind honestly:

"Alice, I found a new race here."

"They have just been born and are full of possibilities. I hope to protect them and create their own civilization. I am also building a brand new energy system for them..."

Alice shook her head.

"Lindsay, you know I won't wait, I'll always take action."

Lindsay reiterated:

"If the space-time turbulence here is not resolved, perhaps some people's lives will be wasted here because of the space-time turbulence. There is more than one solution to the problem of [City of Law]..."

However, Alice's tone remained unwavering:

"But I need to protect those innocent people."

"I can try to rescue the people trapped here in other ways!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Alice pulled out the [Law Steel Sword] given to her by Lindsay from her waist and stabbed it into the ground between them with a whoosh.

Then, a white steel sword was pulled out from the void by Alice.

Lindsay recognized this weapon immediately. This was also the weapon that Alvette had used in the past:

"Sword of white steel!"

Alice held the sword across her chest:

"Come, my dear friend, my righteous one."

"I won't kill you. The clash of our swords will determine our next path."
