"Did you memorize everything? According to Sayo, each of the worlds in the Twelve World Centrum has its own famous meeting point. There are many hostels near those meeting points which provide their customers a place to stay for some time while they wait for their companions... Don't lose your way then," B.Rabbit said with a serious expression. Lin Sanjiu already heard the same instructions from him yesterday.
She smiled and rubbed B.Rabbit's head, "Do you think I am stupid? Don't worry. I will definitely find a way to get to the Twelve Worlds Centrum."
B.Rabbit unhappily groomed his fur, which had been messed up by Lin Sanjiu. After the sap from the apple tree corroded his fur, it grew out again. Now, he was like a mop head. "And, you must stay vigilant! I think Puppeteer already listed you in the Consular Officer database... Once you reach the Twelve Worlds Centrum, you must hide immediately!"
"I know. Don't worry."
Two to three months after the gang of four and Bai Xiaoke were randomly sent off to other worlds, it was finally B.Rabbit's turn to go. As he evolved around the same time as Lin Sanjiu in Hyperthermal Hell, their sent-off period was almost around the same time. Lin Sanjiu watched as B.Rabbit disappeared before her eyes, like bubbles. She stood on the same spot, staring vacantly for some time. Knowing that he was heading to a world called "Carnival", she let out a long sigh and felt uneasy.
She was left with Xueqin and Qian Zhengguan. Xueqin would leave about two months after her, but Qian Zhengguan had to endure another ten months. Right now, he was looking a little bitter.
"I don't know when I will leave, so I need to tell you what I want to say as soon as possible." Lin Sanjiu said while she looked at Xueqin. The latter was trying to maintain her poker face, but she would look lost occasionally. After two months, it would be the first time she would be sent off to another world. But before that, Xueqin would only have an unreliable Qian Zhengguan beside her. Lin Sanjiu was a little worried so she spoke with Xueqin and gave her detailed pointers on things she should take note of.
On top of that, Lin Sanjiu kept only two days worth of food with her. She left the rest of the food supplies behind and even gave Qian Zhengguan all the dried fish she had collected from Hyperthermal Hell. "Just sit on the tree stumps and no one can steal this food from you... You have to ration your supplies, okay?"
Qian Zhengguan blinked his large eyes and spoke in the usual sluggish way, "Sister Lin, if there is any way I can help you in the future..."
In her heart, Lin Sanjiu was rolling her eyes. She still couldn't tolerate his slow manner of speaking.
After she made all the necessary arrangements, there wasn't any sign that she was going to be sent away. In the end, she decided to find a place to sit and take stock of her items.
She rarely had time to do this, so she decided to check her whole card inventory. She had almost used up the daily necessities she collected from Hyperthermal Hell. She already threw away her mouthpart weapon in the black tower. In retrospect, she felt that it was quite a waste throwing away such a convenient weapon. Now, she was only left with a few items from Hyperthermal Hell that reminded her of her hometown... Lin Sanjiu sighed faintly as she looked at the lavender-scented candle in her hand and thought of those days she spent at the supermarket.
Luckily, she replenished many supplies when she was in the Garden of Eden city. Recently, the item she used most frequently was the Vibroblade that she took from the Garden of Eden Laboratories. Though it looked like an ordinary long knife, it was far sharper than any ordinary knife since it cut using micro-vibration. There wasn't anything particular that the vibroblade couldn't cut through, at most, it was only a matter of speed.
In comparison, the gun that she snatched from the soldiers in the city was large, cumbersome and difficult to control. Lin Sanjiu pondered for a moment and decided to keep the gun together with her knife, just in case she needed it in the future.
Apart from her [Bubbles Blowing Girl] which could send out explosive bubbles and the useless storage device for that [Microorganism Cloud] she already used, she had three other high-tech items she took from the Garden of Eden Laboratories. Each of this items shared the unique blood-thirsting qualities that Garden of Eden possessed. She gave the remaining items to B.Rabbit and the rest. She had to admit that her haul from the Garden of Eden was pretty good.
[Flesh-melting Hairdryer]: Do not use this to dry your hair. Do not use this to dry your hair. Do not use this to dry your hair! As per its name, the Flesh-melting Hairdryer would melt a person's body once you use it on that person... This item can only be used with a fuel pellet. You can use this once with each fuel pellet.
"I only took four pellets that time because I was in a rush. That should be enough, right? This item is way too dangerous for humanity," Lin Sanjiu commented, temporarily forgetting the number of people she had killed. Then, she stored both the item together with the fuel pellets.
[Tornado Whip]: There isn't any other weapon with such a straight-forward name, it doesn't even need a description. The tornado created from the whip is not that strong, with a diameter of two meters. An interesting point to note is that the creator actually invented this item to watch rose petals dance in the air.
[Mewing Alarm Clock]: Isn't it annoying to wake up to that same mewing early in the morning, every single day? But, this alarm clock is designed for researchers who like historical cat sculptures, so the sound from the clock is quite cute.
"What is its function? Is it really just an alarm clock?" Lin Sanjiu was dumbfounded. She didn't know why she took this weird item with her. "So, you can only use this like a normal alarm clock? Wasn't this supposed to be some sort of dangerous item?"
Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at the clock which had the shape of a cat's head. Finally, she decided to store it back. Anyway, it did look nice and it didn't take up any space after she converted it into a card.
Her [Dog Frisbee] card was kept together with that clock. This item had lured them to the tree roots, which then lead to the troublesome series of events. In the end, she couldn't find its geographical target, so Lin Sanjiu did not know what to do with it.
"Did Er Dao discover some of the tree roots. So, he placed the geographical marker on them?" After thinking for some time, Lin Sanjiu could only come to this conclusion. If it works by broadcasting some sort of wave, perhaps the area that its signal covers would expand with the tree roots?" Without its geographical marker, this item seemed pretty useless. [Forget it, I will just keep it. Anyway, it weighs nothing.]
When Lin Sanjiu thought of Er Dao, she felt some complex emotions as she took out the card with his corpse. Honestly speaking, after he died because of her, his corpse really helped her out... Without his blood, Lin Sanjiu would've died from radiation.
"There are tree roots everywhere... When I go to the next world, I will find a good spot to bury you," she said softly and stored the card properly. The rest of the cards were some anti-radiation suits, some clothes she took from Guang Zhu's house, and some daily necessities. She searched through the items and only kept a portion of them.
In addition, she had some items from Hyperthermal Hell.
She was still wearing her [Pygmalion Choker], and she had half a bag of [Cat Litter]. She realized that she didn't even use her [That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world]. Her opponents in the Garden of Eden made it unnecessary for her to use her [Oh My God! My wallet is missing!]. She kept this card together with her [Teru Teru Bozu Defense System] and [Another/Way - A Mermaid Cultivation Drink] cards.
Preparing beforehand, Lin Sanjiu managed to get her companions to record their description of an ability using her [Tape recorder]. She collected 14 recordings in this world, on top of the descriptions she collected in the previous world, she definitely had sufficient recording for her next world.
Lin Sanjiu's [Ability Polishing Agent] had been reduced to her official flashlight, whereas [Rob the Poor to feed the Rich box] was so valuable that she didn't even take it out often.
"Ah... this." Lin Sanjiu picked a card from the pile. There was a picture of Ren Nan's dead body on the card. "Maybe, I should just bury the bodies at the same time?"
After such a long time, Lin Sanjiu was surprised that she was at peace even when she saw the picture of her dead former boyfriend who wanted to kill her. She stored the card. After she cleaned up her card inventory and stored everything properly, she looked down at herself. There was still no sign that she was going to be sent off.
"If I don't have a visa, I could be sent off later? Maybe I should look at my abilities..." After she mumbled this, everything went dark. "I'm leaving!" She barely managed to yell out before she disappeared from the Garden of Eden.
