The staircase of the Tower of Heaven seemed endless. After Bai Qi had gone a distance but found that the top was still far away, he rather indifferently gave up on his climb.
"Beta, can you sense the location at the top of the tower?"
Woof woof.
(I can sense what seems to be a special creature up there, but I'm a bit reluctant to go.)
Beta glanced at the faintly visible golden light at the top, feeling two completely different sensations deep in his heart.
One was warm, like the sun shining down.
The other was cold, as if the end of the world had arrived.
"I see, so you're saying there might be some danger up there?"
Bai Qi fell into deep thought, images of the two giant snakes from before surfacing in his mind.
They wouldn't have swum up the tower, would they?
Thinking of the potential warm welcome he might get at the top, Bai Qi couldn't help but shudder.
"Delta, maintain your resonance with the void and be ready to run at any time."
Bloop bloop.
