548: Cooperation outside the main space and time

Chapter 547: Cooperation Outside the Main Time-Space

Two nights ago, Dick, who had been completely drained by Master Mina, briefly lost consciousness.

Afterward, he explored that strange place for over ten minutes until Anberer'er found him, and he returned to reality through the method of "consciousness switching."

Although he couldn't communicate with those bizarre creatures, Dick could miraculously understand what they meant!

The various incomprehensible roars, tongue clicks, and exhalations, upon entering his brain, would automatically convert into recognizable language, allowing for barrier-free communication.

During those ten-plus minutes, Dick gathered a lot of useful information.

For example, the monsters were all exceptionally strong, and the humanoid creatures were like domesticated livestock, stripped naked and locked in cages, being sold on the street.

Another example is that various artifacts were commonplace in the market, seemingly just ordinary weapons, but Imperial artifacts were not seen, not even quasi-Imperial artifacts.

Furthermore, the currency circulating in the strange place was surprisingly the luan stone consumed during teleportation, though the transaction amounts were too large, starting at a minimum of one thousand.

Of course, most importantly, Dick learned the name of the strange place from the conversations of the monsters coming and going—Wu Luan Ancient City!

"Is your true form... still there?"

Hearing Dick's question, Master Alice didn't pay much attention and said casually, "Of course, this Lord has several properties in Wu Luan Ancient City."

Upon hearing this, a very bold idea quickly formed in Dick's mind.

"Master Alice, I think our cooperation should go a step further!"

Dick gave a wicked smile and said slowly, "Besides within the Main Time-Space, we can also cooperate outside the Main Time-Space!"

Saying this, Dick motioned to Alice, asking her to allow the Sovereign Will within her body to briefly take over.

In less than a second, Alice's demeanor underwent a massive change, every gesture exuding an air of arrogance that looked down on everything.

She crossed a pair of beautiful legs, glanced sideways at Dick, and let out a disdainful sneer.

"Heh."

Seeing this, Dick wasn't annoyed but said neither humbly nor haughtily, "For the sake of the Mysterious Sovereign, I believe that even outside the Main Time-Space, we have an equal partnership."

"Equal? What a laughable word."

Master Alice looked at Dick indifferently, her voice turning cold, "This Lord is not that Mysterious Sovereign. If there isn't enough benefit, don't even talk about cooperation!"

A joke, cooperation outside the Main Time-Space?

With Dick's current strength, he can only honestly stay within the Main Time-Space; he can't even get out, so what cooperation could there be?

In Master Alice's view, Dick clearly wanted something for nothing, wanting to entice her to run errands for him, and would probably offer all sorts of empty promises later.

"Ah, no matter what, I am the Child of Prophecy, with various strange abilities; there will always be something you want..."

Hearing this, Master Alice instantly thought of the Mysterious Sovereign, and how her strength had undergone a qualitative change with Dick's "help."

"Shut up!"

Master Alice immediately became emotional, her pretty face slightly red, saying, "This Lord... this Sovereign Will never... never do that just to become stronger!!"

"Alright, alright," Dick quickly waved his hand and chuckled awkwardly, "Then don't trade with me personally, dealing with the Mysterious Sovereign should be fine, right? After all, she is so powerful..."

The sixty-sixth generation Alice, due to her tragic life experiences, had extremely strong self-esteem and insisted on achieving everything through her own efforts, even becoming a Lord.

But Dick was still a bit speechless. He hadn't even said "cultivating yin by absorbing yang" just now, so why was Master Alice so sensitive, acting as if he were insulting her?

"If it's that Mysterious Sovereign, cooperation isn't entirely out of the question..."

Master Alice's attitude softened. She wasn't persuaded by Dick, but rather by Master Mina's absurd strength.

"But before that," Master Alice looked at Dick, her eyes narrowing, "This Lord wants to know first, what exactly do you want to do?"

Honestly, Master Alice didn't quite understand Dick. He couldn't even leave the Main Time-Space, yet he ambitiously sought to involve himself with things outside the Main Time-Space, which seemed quite impractical.

However, what Dick said next left Master Alice dumbfounded.

"It's not a difficult matter. I just hope you can be my guide in Wu Luan Ancient City, take me around, and help me understand this neutral market upstream of the long river..."

"Stop!"

Without waiting for Dick to finish, Master Alice couldn't help but interrupt, crossing her arms and saying impatiently, "You can leave the Main Time-Space?"

"Probably not," Dick spread his hands, saying helplessly, "Besides, even if I could get out, I wouldn't dare, after all, there's a bunch of Lords outside who want to kill me..."

Listening to Dick's contradictory words, veins popped on Master Alice's forehead, and she said unhappily, "Then you can't even leave the Main Time-Space, yet you want to tour Wu Luan Ancient City? Are you perhaps making a fool of this Lord?"

Saying this, Master Alice suddenly stood up, raising her fair foot as if to give Dick a lesson.

But she forgot that the true owner of this body was Alice from the Main Time-Space.

The next second, Sovereign Will suddenly retreated, and Alice regained control of her body.

Because her right foot was already raised in mid-air, the sudden withdrawal of strength caused her body to lose balance, and she couldn't stand steady, falling into Dick's arms.

"Don't rush, just let me finish talking..."

Dick was very satisfied with Alice's reaction in the moment and planned to give her some reward, so while speaking, he began unbuttoning her uniform.

"I have a way to appear in Wu Luan Ancient City without leaving the Main Time-Space!"

Alice's face flushed, she bit her lip lightly, and trembled as she relayed the words of the Sovereign Will in her heart.

"Ho-how could there be such... an unbelievable method? Do you know how far the Main Time-Space is from... oh~... how far it is from Wu Luan Ancient City?"

Hearing this, Dick smiled slightly.

"You don't need to worry about that. Let's head to the Main Time-Space channel now and find the Mysterious Sovereign to sign a cooperation contract."

Exploring Wu Luan Ancient City was not safe, and there were many things Dick didn't know.

If he got injured or even died there, would it affect his true form in the Main Time-Space?

Could he, through some method, bring things from there completely into the Main Time-Space?

Was the ability to achieve this kind of traversal a special ability that only the Child of Prophecy could use?

Furthermore, besides the dangers of Wu Luan Ancient City, Master Alice, as a guide, was not someone easy to deal with, and his trust with her was almost zero.

Therefore, a verbal agreement was very inappropriate; Dick didn't want to be constantly on edge!

Master Alice must sign a contract with Master Mina. Only by being bound could Dick confidently rely on her and cling tightly to her leg in Wu Luan Ancient City.

A few minutes later, Alice was heavily panting, looking at Dick with sultry eyes, "She... she has agreed, and will set off to find the Mysterious Sovereign shortly."

"Very good," Dick smoothed Alice's messy sideburns and said gently, "Tonight's training is canceled. You'll sleep here with me and maintain contact with the Sovereign Will at all times!"

"Dick..."

Alice turned around and hugged Dick, asking sweetly, "How was my performance in the simulated battle just now?"

"Not bad, you were the best among the girls."

Of course, this was mainly because Isurna hadn't had time to make a move, otherwise she would likely have stolen the spotlight.

Alice smiled shyly, leaned her head against Dick's chest, and whispered like a mosquito, "Then the reward..."

Hearing this, Dick didn't waste words, stood up directly, and carried Alice to the big bed.

The night was long; Dick didn't mind doing something to pass the time while waiting for Master Alice.
