Chapter 1004: The Fugitive Squad

[Skyfall]?

This strange word coming out of Vita's mouth made Yaegiri and Su frown, as if... they just happened to catch up with a critical point in this city?

"What is [Skyfall]?" Su asked.

"Oh? Haven't you heard about it? This is a disaster that can threaten our entire world. If we don't handle it properly, not only this city, but even the world may not be spared."

Amid the din of alarms and human voices, Vita looked at the two as if they were aliens. Yaegiri and Su didn't know how to explain, but fortunately the other party didn't ask in detail, but treated the two as aliens who didn't belong to this world.

"【天陷】means the sky is falling. Do you see that half of the sky? It was originally blue, but now it's turned red. Just wait and see, it will turn black soon~"

Vita pointed to the sky in the distance. Just as she said, the sky at noon was as red as if it was burning with flames, and the red color was slowly getting deeper, as if a big hole would appear at any time.

"It is said that this disaster appeared a long time ago. At first, it was just a small-scale change, and then it became bigger and bigger. What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg. As early as thirty years ago, half of the sky had become like this. Who knows to what extent it will spread now?"

There seemed to be some sadness in Vita's words, which was inconsistent with her mask, but Yaeli and Su could both hear some sincerity in her words.

"No one survives under the [Skyfall]. I haven't been close to it, but everyone says so."

"Didn't people try to stop it?" Su asked softly.

"We have tried to stop it, but there is nothing we can do. Although we have greatly slowed down the speed of the [collapse], I guess... within 20 years, our world will be completely destroyed~ Moreover, the speed of the [sky collapse] this time seems to be faster than before. According to normal rules, the [sky collapse] will not spread here at all now, right?"

The sadness in Vita's tone disappeared and she returned to her normal way of speaking, but this expression was more like relief under despair.

Su and Yaeri couldn't imagine that just a few minutes ago, this girl was still introducing the city to them in a quirky way and trying every way to cheat them of their money.

"Su, haven't you observed this situation before?"

Yae Li looked at Su, who shook his head slightly. The two used their mental power to communicate, "No, this is a very strange phenomenon. I can't find out the reason for the so-called [Skyfall]. There is no possibility of natural apoptosis in this world bubble."

"It's not natural... Could it be an external force?"

Yaeri looked at the sky, which had partially turned red to black. Even at such a long distance, he could vaguely see the Quantum Sea through the red.

"To be able to gradually destroy a world bubble and completely hide one's own tracks, Li, how much power do you think it takes?" Su asked back.

"..."

Putting aside the power of the bubble that can destroy the world, Su is a fusion warrior who survived the previous civilization. Yae Ri certainly doesn't think that ordinary beings can escape his mental power. It's just that inexplicably, a term appeared in his mind.

"[Finally] we can do it."

"..."

Su fell silent.

A second "end"? Is this possible?

Yaeri thought about what she had said to Alicia not long ago.

The world is so big, the possibility of a second alien like [End] appearing is not zero.

But if that's the case, they can only run away, and they can't attract the other party's attention. One "End" on Earth is enough for them to deal with, and if they attract another one, they might as well just declare the destruction of the Earth.

Although there is a possibility that this world bubble will be destroyed due to unknown factors, neither of them dares to take the risk.

I’ve decided to give up this anchor mission and immediately find an opportunity to leave this world!

"..."

Vita looked at the two people who suddenly fell silent, without saying a word. Under the mask, Su and Yae Li didn't know that the corners of her mouth were curled up in pleasure.

Su and Yaeri were discussing quickly. Since they had decided to evacuate, they would not delay. But the problem now was that they did not know the location of the possible second [End].

It would be no fun if they happened to be exposed to each other's sight when leaving.

Su and Yae Li looked at each other, both thinking of waiting and watching the situation for the time being. They would integrate themselves into the group of humans in this world, hoping to confuse the other party.

"Eh? What were you guys staring at just now? Why don't you leave quickly? Since [Skyfall] has spread to this side, there's nothing we can do about it. I have to pack up and prepare to move early. What about you? Which direction is your home?"

As if at the right moment, Vita spoke the moment the two men finished their discussion, and waved her delicate little hands in front of their eyes.

"We are very lucky. We came from the opposite direction of [Sky Trap]." After coming back to her senses, Yae Li pointed in a direction and replied.

"That's great. I'm planning to evacuate in that direction too. Let's go together, shall we? Are there any empty houses in your hometown? I still have a lot of savings from my first half of life, so I can buy a new house and be your neighbor~"

"..."

Where are their local hometowns from?

Yaeri and Su were actually reluctant to form a team of fugitives as Vita suggested. It was not because they were afraid of being exposed. On the contrary, with the presence of a local, they might be able to better integrate into this world. Their only concern was whether or not to involve the girl in front of them.

They are outsiders and the only existence different from the humans in this world. Following them is like being an ant away from the colony. The risks involved can be imagined.

However, even if they didn’t bring Vita with them, it seemed that this clever girl could not escape the fate of being destroyed along with this world?

So, Su nodded in agreement, and Yaeri held the same opinion.

"That's great. I knew you were really good people. You are beautiful and kind-hearted. I was worried that a weak woman like me would be bullied by a scary and burly man while on the run."

Vita clapped her hands happily, and her voice became louder. "But now that I have your company, I feel much more at ease. Come with me. I have to go home to pack my luggage first... What about you? Did you bring anything else for the trip?"

Su and Yae Li shook their heads without further explanation.

Vita was very happy, because she saw that Yae Li and Su were empty-handed, and the money for the meal was conjured out of thin air. In this way, she could act like a spoiled child when she "couldn't carry" the luggage on the road, and ask these two grown men to help carry it~
