Chapter 2212: Chapter 2207: Instantaneous Response

To be honest, judging from past experiences, this flexible skull is almost as mild as its material, making it one of the gentlest Holy Relics of the Fallen Star Clan.

As Frankie introduced at the time, the only effect of wearing it on your head is to seal off a portion of memory, protecting the mind from being disturbed.

And when needed, you can put it on again, not only to relive the past but also to share it with others.

So the giantess’s behavior, in theory, is not particularly dangerous.

Frankie’s exaggerated reaction was primarily due to timing.

In the midst of constant mutations and relentless pressure, at the brink of mental collapse, having someone suddenly behave incomprehensively is indeed a bit of a shock.

Especially when the anger erupted reflexively, the giantess seemed entirely unresponsive.

Of course, her demeanor was far from composed.

Based on her previous behavior, it was hard to imagine she’d also reveal such an expression.

The provocation in her posture was utterly absent, and her eyes were filled with fear, even pain.

But just looking like this, it’s hard to determine the reason for her pain.

And why she was desperately trying to put the skull on, while seemingly trying to stop herself.

Indeed, Fu Qian could clearly sense the contradictoriness embodied in the giantess at this moment.

Muscles tense, sweat pouring like beans, even the two halves of her face seemed to operate independently, awkwardly out of sync.

It was like there were two drivers in that body at present.

But apparently, the will to put the skull on ultimately gained advantage.

Under the terrified gaze of Frankie and Xia, the headdress was finally forcefully placed onto the giantess’s head.

"Get out! Are you crazy?"

And almost the first moment it was worn, before Frankie and Xia could say anything, who were about to break down, the giantess roared herself, her voice filled with grief and indignation.

...

So there really was someone there?

The giantess’s reaction was undeniably bizarre.

However, for Fu Qian, who had anticipated this, it was easy to understand.

From his perspective, that roar was full of genuine emotion, and he thought it unlikely that she would make such a joke in a tense atmosphere.

Was something occupying her body? And she detected it, turning to use this method to avoid it?

It seemed like another function of the flexible skull was witnessed.

And apparently, someone had noticed earlier than the subject herself—

Fu Qian glanced at the Witch.

"Very special."

The latter nodded, acknowledging having noticed this earlier.

"Save me..."

And the next sound incredibly fittingly corresponded to the Witch’s statement.

After the giantess’s roar, Frankie and the others were visibly stunned.

As they stopped in their tracks, another voice appeared.

Although the voice also came from the giantess’s head, it seemed different, originating from the surface layer.

An additional facial outline emerged on the skull, and just like the voice, it was filled with struggle.

"Death Star?"

Even with just a few words, it was enough to leave Frankie and the others stunned again.

"Where have you gone? Why did you descend on one of our own? How did you do it?"

Ultimately, Lady Xia responded quicker, directly firing off a series of three questions.

...

So was it really one of the four Giants who descended on their own being?

This Death Star term, Fu Qian had just heard it moments ago, the one absent from the discussion.

According to what Frankie and the others had said earlier, the subject vanished mysteriously, causing widespread unease.

And now it seems they’ve returned themselves? Though this manner is...

Fu Qian certainly remembered the Fallen Star Clan’s ability to descend.

He had even witnessed it during his earlier efforts with Esther.

Within a certain range, it could temporarily replace others, accessible and dominating.

Regarding the cause of this ability, it naturally stemmed from the non-real essence of this place, and secondly, Fu Qian believed it likely related to their special status in the Nightmare.

Their sense of superiority within the Fallen Star Clan wasn’t unfounded; they might be among the closest to the current Nightmare’s essence, under the client.

According to what Lady Xia said, it seemed they couldn’t descend on each other so easily, hence the final question mark.

"I don’t care what happened to you, get out now! Clean and clear!"

Unfortunately, as the subjects themselves, remaining calm was evidently difficult.

Without waiting for Death Star to respond, the giantess continued to roar.

And notably, this time, the sound actually came from her skull’s face.

"Save me, please save me..."

The response, almost completely opposite, switched to below the skull.

...

So it seems even this Holy Relic isn’t omnipotent, merely slightly resisting the state of descent, unable to directly eject the intruder.

Faced with the giantess’s behavior, Fu Qian quickly concluded.

No surprise, if it were that effective, why wouldn’t she just tear the mask off after separating the intruder, instead of discussing it?

Despite that, the giantess’s responses were remarkably nimble.

Also, Frankie and Xia seemed quite taken aback by this descent method, leading to suspicions that the giantess may have prior experience in this area, even that Death Star’s choice wasn’t random.

"It’s almost too late... please save me..."

Unfortunately, neither party seemed inclined to answer Xia’s questions.

The Death Star, scolded by the giantess, consistently responded with pleas for help, seemingly in a dire situation.

"A very special place, even under such circumstances, it remains hard to grasp."

Amid the intense debate, the Witch finally spoke, confirming the situation with Fu Qian.

Clearly, she was using the Death Star’s descent to verify a previously untouched place.

It sounded even more mysterious and elusive than the Sea of Souls.

Of course, that was not a bad thing.

It proved that the four Giants of the Fallen Star Clan didn’t disappoint expectations, helping to explore some peculiar things.

And the "special" here wasn’t merely about difficulty in grasping.

Although the Witch hadn’t completed her lock-on, it was obvious that she had noticed the giantess’s abnormality the moment after spreading the Dark Moon power.

It was reasonable to suspect that the change provided the struggling Death Star a chance at that moment.

If this assumption held, the prompt response raises the possibility: was the location trapping Death Star sensitive to Dark Moon’s power?

"Found it."

During Fu Qian’s brainstorm, the Witch’s voice quickly reappeared, and simultaneously his hand was grasped again.
