While the two bizarre Trailblazers chatted here, on the other side, Robin was feeling dizzy after touching the manhole cover.
Because when she touched the manhole cover, she actually saw a manhole cover with three lights on its head spraying steam at her face. The moment she was knocked over by the spray, she felt a power of Harmony so pure it couldn't be purer.
That feeling, as if she and the manhole cover were one family, made her involuntarily hug the manhole cover.
She felt the Harmony coming from the manhole cover. She was ashamed to admit it, but she actually felt that the Harmony on the manhole cover... was even purer than the Harmony she brought?
The moment she hugged the manhole cover, she even felt every surrounding molecule holding hands with each other.
Don't ask how she did it: Robin didn't know either.
It was a hell of a feeling.
She had lived this long, and this was the first time she had experienced such a marvelous sensation.
Not only did she understand why Pei Guang and Stelle licked the manhole cover, but even she wanted to run off with this manhole cover right now.
The only thing giving her a headache was, if she held a concert or visited those children, would bringing this manhole cover... be a bit inappropriate?
On second thought, she felt it wasn't a problem. Harmony embraced everything.
Just like the scar left on her neck; although there were technological means to make the scar disappear, as a member of the Harmony, Robin didn't do so.
As for why she used decorations to cover it? She didn't want this scar to make people feel pity.
If she couldn't even embrace a manhole cover, how could she talk about getting more people to identify with Harmony?
At this moment, Robin had already planned out her next 365 days with the manhole cover.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hum out loud.
"Sway to my beat~ In the name of Xipe~"
Accompanying Robin's soft humming, the manhole cover also conveyed its silence to Robin.
Seeing this change in Robin, March 7th held her forehead: "It's over, completely done for. Miss Robin has also been led astray. Ah Guang, Stelle, this manhole cover... maybe you should put it away?"
Stelle put her hands on her hips and raised her head triumphantly: "Hahaha! No need, no need, everyone gets a share. I found several of these stat-boosting manhole covers. I guarantee one for each of us. When we meet the enemy, we... our super boss will be invincible!"
Stelle had firmly remembered that "invincible" was a debuff.
She was determined not to jinx her own people, except Pei Guang.
If she didn't put a few invincible buffs on Pei Guang every day, she felt uncomfortable all over!
Firefly: "There are... many more?"
Firefly couldn't quite imagine the scene of everyone holding a manhole cover and licking it when facing enemies later. Anyway, if she faced this kind of enemy, she would feel her scalp tingle.
But if she became such an enemy... doing it alone was a bit embarrassing, but if a group of people did it together, it seemed it was okay?
While Firefly was thinking wildly, Robin, who had completed resonance with the Harmony Manhole Cover, looked at Pei Guang and Stelle with a smile: "May I ask, can you lend this to me for a bit longer? It is very helpful to me..."
When saying this, Robin's face was a bit red.
Clearly she was holding a manhole cover that people trampled on, yet it allowed her to better comprehend what Harmony was.
She wanted to understand Harmony from as many angles as possible, and then... bring the blessing of Harmony to more suffering people.
Feeling Robin's gaze, Stelle spread her hands: "Don't look at me! I don't care. If you really like it, give me back the bat, and this Harmony Cover is yours."
Stelle had a nonchalant attitude. Anyway, there were several manhole covers left.
According to her estimation, one per person was no problem.
Since everyone could have one, lending one out was no problem.
Although she had spent a short time with Robin, she was willing to trust her, believing she would return what she borrowed.
What? Robin won't return it or the Family won't return it?
That would be awesome too!
Thinking of the possibility of not returning it, Stelle licked the corner of her mouth excitedly and turned to look at Pei Guang.
Pei Guang was very calm. Just looking at Stelle for that instant, they knew what the other was thinking.
They were drooling over Penacony.
Although Pei Guang used the temporary Family Head identity to get construction rights for a partial area, how could a partial area be as tasty as the entire Penacony?
Thinking of possibly obtaining the entire Penacony, Stelle was a bit excited. She whispered to Pei Guang: "Do you think it's possible?"
Pei Guang: "I don't know? But looking at the current situation, our next enemy might be tough to beat."
Stelle: "Supplies before a big battle?"
Pei Guang: "Smart. Just from the powerful effects of these supplies, maybe we will fight an Emanator in the end. We want to make Penacony more Harmonious. Maybe in the process of Harmony, we have to fight Harmony's past enemies."
Stelle: "Order?"
Pei Guang: "Not just that, also Propagation. But I hope not so many enemies pop out, especially the Swarm, that stuff is truly disgusting..."
Although in the memory world he had a blast playing the Swarm, when really facing the Swarm, he only felt disgusted.
Stelle: "Don't be afraid! There are not just these two manhole covers with Paths. I know there are a few more. If we collect them all, even if an Aeon resurrects, with the invincible you here, we will definitely win."
Pei Guang: "Do you have to jinx me to death, you invincible Stelle?"
While Stelle and Pei Guang were busy jinxing each other, the group started to move to find other manhole covers.
After some searching, the group successfully found a total of seven manhole covers with different Paths.
Harmony, Abundance, Destruction, The Hunt, Preservation, Nihility, Erudition.
When there were only two manhole covers at first, Robin thought it was just a coincidence. This is a dreamscape: Memoria mutating to create some... Path Manhole Covers wasn't a big problem.
After confirming there were no other Path Manhole Covers in this area known as Dreamflux Reef, the group happily found Himeko and Welt.
Himeko and Welt hadn't been idle: while everyone was gathering items needed to clear the boss and improving overall combat power, they were constantly collecting intelligence.
And in the process of collecting intelligence, they also met Misha and Clockie, and were led by the two to a small platform.
There was an expert here specializing in Memoria black holes, but before they had time to communicate anything with this expert, Pei Guang and the others followed the coordinates and walked over.
March 7th was the most excited person; she was holding a manhole cover in each hand, waving excitedly at Himeko and Welt.
"Himeko~ Mr. Yang, good stuff! Super good stuff!!"
Himeko: "?"
Welt: "?"
They could understand the meaning of the words "good stuff," but why was March 7th running over holding manhole covers?
Was the good stuff the manhole covers?
While the two were thinking in silence, March 7th held up the manhole covers and introduced them: "These are Path Manhole Covers discovered by Stelle~ Isn't it magical? These manhole covers have the power of Paths! This one has the Erudition Path, and this one has the Nihility Path. See if they suit you?"
"?"
"?"
Manhole covers can have Paths too??
This question lingered in Himeko and Welt's minds.
As the two looked at the manhole covers stuffed into their arms by March 7th, their expressions were somewhat subtle.
What made them feel even more subtle was that, for some reason, they saw... Robin was actually hugging a manhole cover too?
Hell, Miss Robin was actually hugging a manhole cover with a smile? This scene would probably cause cardiac arrest for all fans in the universe, right?
If there were only one or two manhole covers, Pei Guang and Stelle would naturally have the attitude of using them themselves first. But this trip yielded seven in one breath: not to mention the few of them, even if Dan Heng came, he could have a manhole cover to use.
At the same time, the quantity of manhole covers left Pei Guang unsure of how to retort.
Seven manhole covers? Is this Calabash Brothers? Or Dragon Ball?
Anyway, gathering seven manhole covers didn't summon an Aeon or an Emanator for Pei Guang, so he could only treat these manhole covers as Calabash Brothers.
