The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast-Chapter 438 - 407: Lisa’s State of Mind

As the distance closed, in Lisa’s eyes, the land ship named Rhode Island became increasingly large. Only upon close contact could one truly sense the magnificence and charm of this industrial giant beast.

Yet at the same time, not far from the land ship, thick dark clouds were rolling, as if stirred by some invisible force, ominously clustering at the horizon.

Occasionally, dark purple lightning flashed through the clouds, but no thunder followed. The edges of the clouds glowed with an unnatural orange-red hue, as if an indescribable disaster was brewing within.

Finally, the three of them arrived beneath the land ship and took an elevator up to the transfer station.

Responsible for receiving the three was a Caites (rabbit) woman, dressed in a uniform with a tall tower emblem on her chest. She let out a long breath: "Thank goodness you made it. Just a little later, and Rhode Island would have started to relocate."

Ingrid frowned slightly: "A natural disaster, huh."

"Yes." The Caites woman replied, "Though Rhode Island has advanced prediction and observation methods, its target is a natural disaster, so occasionally unexpected situations arise. But rest assured, according to PRTS calculations, there is no possibility of Rhode Island’s main ship being directly hit by this natural disaster, at most, there might be some edge skimming causing the ship to shake."

She paused and added, "If you’re worried, you can return now without issue. Observation shows that this natural disaster is mainly a dust storm mixed with active Source Stone dust, moving slowly enough that an ordinary car could outrun it."

"..."

"..."

Ultimately, Ingrid spoke up: "Rhode Island was recommended by my spouse as a medical company, I certainly trust your methods."

Hearing this, the sadness in Lisa’s heart grew even stronger.

——A family reunited with great effort.

Are we going to... separate again?

Ingrid took a light pink suitcase from the car’s trunk, pushing it into Lisa’s hands. It was covered with many cute little stickers and shiny stickers of various colors, including flowers, the sun, and adorable little animals.

The Caites woman, seeming quite insightful and experienced, quietly stepped back a few paces, leaving space for the three.

Ingrid crouched down, facing Lisa, and took out a blue cloth bag from her arms, with an embroidered image of a curled-up Nine-tailed Fox, like a Full Moon in the sky. If one listened closely, one could hear a rhythmic ticking sound coming from inside.

She solemnly handed it to Lisa, her face exceptionally gentle.

"When the ticking in the Guardian stops, we’ll return."

"Until then, remember to go to bed on time~"

Instantly, the sadness in Lisa’s heart was suppressed, replaced by joy and anticipation.

"Yes!"

"Safe trip! Mom, Dad!"

Following the Caites woman’s lead, Lisa walked towards the interior of Rhode Island.

Lisa’s nine large tails swayed, a bit of curiosity rising in her heart: "Sister, where are we going now?"

"First, let’s get you a pre-island physical check-up. Although your parents previously provided us information, it’s still safer to check again."

The Caites woman spoke as they walked: "Dr. Kaelis values her relationship with Syracuse...and with Ms. Ingrid. Even though she has a cold appearance, she’s actually a kind-hearted doctor. Of course, due to unexpected situations now, she may not be able to take time to examine you. Ah, and if the person examining you later is a Blood Demon with pale skin and crimson eyes, don’t be scared, Miss Warfarin is very reliable with patients."

Thus, Lisa underwent a series of examinations at Rhode Island.

The examinations ended quickly, but the report will take some time to come out.

So Lisa was led by a big sister toward the residential area.

On the way, Lisa passed by a Caites girl, possibly because of her youthful appearance, or her kind smile, or the oversized coat she wore, making Lisa a bit curious and she asked the operator beside her, receiving an even more surprising answer.

That girl was actually the leader of Rhode Island, this multinational medical enterprise!

[She seems only a little older than Lisa!]

Rhode Island was vast, and with Lisa’s small steps, they walked a long way together.

Bang——!

At this moment, a violent shake came. Startled, Lisa couldn’t hold onto her suitcase, letting it slide several meters away.

"Don’t worry."

The guiding operator showed little surprise or panic, reassuring: "Most likely the expansion of the natural disaster exceeded predictions, no time to issue a notice, and its edge scraped against Rhode Island, soon there might be intense shaking, quickly hold onto something fixed—"

Perhaps due to the lack of security in the unfamiliar environment, Lisa treasured her suitcase greatly. Before the operator could finish speaking, her body acted on its own, moving beside the suitcase.

"Quick, grab the pipe on the wall!"

Right then, another hit came, stronger than the last.

Flustered, Lisa wanted to grab the pipe beside her, but one hand held the suitcase handle, and the other clutched the Guardian given by her parents, leaving no extra hand to grab the pipe.

Without giving Lisa any choice, the next instant, she was flung by tremendous force.

"What is that?!"

"Oh no! Watch out behind!"

The operator’s anxious voice prompted Lisa, even while airborne out of balance, to glance back.

What she saw was a space as if fragmented, of unfathomable darkness.

Subsequently, she lost nearly all sensation, in the Chaos Void, her vision, smell, and hearing were restricted to almost nothing.

Only her sense of touch barely functioned.

Fear, endless fear, spread in Lisa’s heart.

[Where is this?]

[Why... why can’t I see anything, hear anything?]

[Dad... Mom...]

Even with her heart full of fear, Lisa clung tightly to the suitcase and the Guardian in her hands, even as the concept of time seemed to slip from her mind, she did not let go.

She didn’t know how long it lasted, but familiar gravity finally returned, and as she opened her eyes, she found herself in a lush mountain range.

Her arms had taken on the form of claws, her body unusually petite.

——She had arrived at Blue Star.

...

The scene ended there.

The information and scene recorded in the Source Stone were only her memories before coming to Blue Star.

Because Blue Star inherently represses the power of Otherworld calamity, making it exceptionally hard to gather information.

The remaining memory and scene still exist within Lisa’s soul, but lacking the support of the Source Stone, the current Lin Guang and Black Crown cannot easily retrieve them.

But... Lin Guang has another way.

Because he knows what happened next, he can still use a certain anchor point.

And that is...

His own memory.

Using his memory as a timeline and anchor point, to retrieve Lisa’s emotions corresponding to those times.

This time, he began to re-experience everything they went through together from his own perspective.

But along with it came indescribable emotions Lisa had never expressed but undeniably existed in her heart.
