A deep pit of over a thousand meters,

Gust climbed up with almost no effort or, you could say, was licked up.

Under his influence, the vertical tunnel with a well-mouth structure was soon covered with tongues.

As long as you crawl in, the tongues growing on the walls will provide an "upward licking".

Under the influence of numerous tongues, the whole person seemed to slither quickly between the pipes, reaching the surface effortlessly.

Luo Di also enjoyed the same treatment, and he could sense that the tongues growing from the walls seemed to regard Gust as a "king".

Wow ooooo!!!!!!

Upon reaching the surface, Gust couldn't help but shout,

He hadn't breathed outside air for too long, and even though he could come out in the form of "influence," the sensory feedback could never compare to personal experience.

A bendable long tongue protruded from his mouth, rising high like a radar.

"Hmm... indeed, compared to before I was incarcerated, there's more impurity in the air! These damn things are probably more than wall mice by now, and when they're finally discovered, they might already be like cockroaches filling the room.

Luo Di, where is Vortex Town?"

"I originally planned to go through the Invisible Manor; the two organizations have established deep connections, and once at the manor, we can directly teleport over."

"Invisible Manor? Before I was locked up, it seemed like there wasn't such an organization... Could it be that the one you mentioned before, something like Maxithy, is the founder of this organization?"

"Maximus."

"Oh, that's a hard name to remember~ let's get going then."

Luo Di instinctively wanted to summon the Crow Colt inside him but suddenly remembered something, a quick flash of emotion crossed his eyes, but he quickly reined it in front of his elder.

When he looked up, he found the entire forest had become viscous and started to move.

The "insects" Luo Di had seen in the woods earlier were all attracted and approached here, their tongue-shaped bodies merging under the effect of saliva.

Soon,

a huge tongue formed before them, its base filled with nerve-like plant legs.

"Hop on!"

"This... can it be ridden?"

Luo Di looked at the white spikes on the tongue's surface and saliva-covered surface, already imagining what the ride would feel like.

"Stop being so picky! When I first came to the Corner, I didn't have so many rules like you. During the chase and kill, I've eaten all sorts of things and endured all conditions, now get up there!"

Gust directly slapped Luo Di on the spine.

Even this slap felt like being fiercely licked by a tongue, sending him directly onto the tongue.

The spikes were not as hard as imagined, but rather offered just the right softness, providing enough friction to ensure the rider wouldn't fall off during the fast movement.

As Gust sat up, the huge tongue began to race ahead.

The plant legs at its base moved at high speed, matching the speed of Crow Colt, but the riding sensation was completely different, like sitting on a flying carpet.

"Senior, won't this tongue's appearance and movement style easily expose our whereabouts? Your hobby should be stealing other's tongues, shouldn't you move stealthily?"

Gust's gaze changed, glaring at Luo Di: "What kind of nonsense are you spouting! It's not stealing, it's collecting... do you understand?"

"Alright."

"Besides, if you need to act stealthily, it's simple."

Gust reached out to touch the tongue's surface, and the originally flat tongue suddenly curled up, wrapping both of them inside like a quilt.

The giant tongue also started to change color, assuming a mimicry, and its scent was completely erased.

This kind of mimicry was indeed decent, but wrapped inside, Luo Di felt uncomfortable.

The first issue was space, and the second was this curling causing him to be squeezed next to Gust, always feeling like the other would stick a tongue out.

"Enough~ maybe let's stay as usual? Anyway, it's not far to the Invisible Manor, and we won't encounter any trouble."

As the tongue unfolded again, Luo Di immediately sat up straight, yet felt something clinging to him from behind.

"Senior, what are you doing?"

"Your spine, it's from Hell, isn't it? It's quite excellent, just a little too damaged, and your tongue has only been slightly influenced by me, the repair function is very weak.

Considering you really saved me, I'll help fix it a bit, and also have a taste.

Quickly, take off your clothes."

"Huh?"

Luo Di was stunned again, even imagining an unbearable scene, instinctively wanting to refuse, but his spine was indeed severely injured, and even the murderer's undead condition couldn't repair it.

Since there's a chance for complete healing, it's only natural to seize it.

Moreover, this is already the Corner, and some human constraints are not necessary to worry about.

Luo Di decisively took off his shirt, revealing a body full of scars, his entire spine fully displayed due to his sitting posture.

A strange sensation of a tongue soon came.

The tongue's licking didn't stay on the surface but directly penetrated the skin, licking between the wounds.

Luo Di could feel his broken spine healing at an extraordinary speed, the healing effect was amazing, finishing the complete repair of his cervical and lumbar spine in less than ten minutes.

『Gust actually has such an ability... If we can act together, wouldn't that save a lot of trouble? Although the scene is a bit strange, it's really feasible.』

Bah!

After the licking,

Gust spat a pile of ashes mixed with saliva onto the roadside.

"Hot, dry, filled with slaughter and invasion... so this is the taste of the True Hell."

"Senior, you've never been there?"

"How could a monster go, only humans who haven't yet accepted the Corner System, untainted by fear, can possibly connect with the Outer Realm."

Luo Di looked puzzled, "Then how do you know about that symbol?"

"The Corner is a very special place, its corresponding fear system is inherently ever-changing. What I fear is the tongue-pulling demon instilled in me by my father since childhood.

The Corner's fear reflection turned me into what I feared most, and after becoming this thing, I started getting interested in demonology.

After learning about the concept of the multiverse, I attempted to explore whether the Hell World truly exists.

During my sealed, boring time down there, I began to deduce various forms of demonic symbols in my mind, gradually understanding the essence of semiotics, and created symbols out of sheer idleness.

When I drew one of the symbols, I felt gravitational fluctuations among the symbols, boldly speculating that there might truly be a Hell World using this symbol in the distant depths of the universe.

So I projected this symbol into your memory.

You really made an effort, truly connecting the past, how is it over there?"

Luo Di didn't directly disclose the nature of the True Hell but instead singled out an important matter to explain,

"Currently, three Hell Lords who have been very supportive of me have arrived in the Human World in a special way and have reached cooperation with our special entities here.

Once the full-scale Outer Realm invasion hits, Hell will also provide all the help it can."

"Great~ great! That's really something, you're much more formidable than I imagined... Theoretically, Hell isn't a good place, yet these demons are willing to help, a lot of interesting things must have happened."

"Hmm."

Luo Di suddenly felt something, looked up, and about a kilometer away, there was an area barrier akin to a curtain, indicating that the area ahead might be affected by disasters.

"There is a sound disaster in the area ahead, nothing can be heard outdoors.

The Invisible Manor is set up inside, the Family Head should be at Vortex Town, currently guarded by the Lady of the house. The temper of the Lady may not be very good, senior, please try not to be reckless."

Luo Di realized that his reminder was entirely unnecessary, as Gust beside him looked infatuated, tongue tip exposed, moving rapidly.

"The Lady, huh? I wonder if her tongue is very special, I hope there's a chance to collect it... reo~reo~reo!"

Buzz!

They passed through the barrier!

A golden wheatfield appeared before their eyes.

The strange thing was,

such an abnormal tongue mount breaking into private property did not encounter any obstruction, and the butler with the pine tree head did not show up for inspection either.

Luo Di thought it was the Lady sensing his arrival, thus directly passing the identity verification.

When the tongue reached the top of the hill and at the mansion's gate,

the Lady, dressed all in red, actually stood inside the door to greet them personally, having already used her power to seal off the front yard, no longer affected by the sound disaster.

Luo Di hadn't had the chance to shout 'mom' yet,

when the Lady came to him, but she didn't look at Luo Di, she stared in amazement at the white-haired middle-aged man behind him.

"Mr. Tongue!?"

"Aiser?"

The Lady was shocked, "It really is you! How come you're with my godson... no wonder, no wonder his tongue was forbidden by my husband to be used at home, turns out it was related to you."

"Hmm~ So you're the Lady, what a big change... It seems you also had quite the gains from the videotape,"

Gust, who was enthusiastic just moments ago, suddenly lost interest, seemingly having already collected the opposite's tongue, or maybe for some other reason.
