NO.14 The Emperor's Awakening (9)
On the other hand, Gan Ruo, who was hiding in a corner, finally confirmed that the madman did not continue to follow, and then walked out of her hiding place with peace of mind. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info frowned as she passed a trash can and took the fishy charms out of the basket and threw them into the non-recyclable category.
After doing this, Gan Ruo glanced at his home not far away and quickened his pace. After she stepped out of the distance, in a dimension that could not be detected by the naked eye, clumps of twisted black mist emerged from the ground and floated rapidly in her direction.
It didn't take long for Gan Ruo to come to the iron gate of her yard, and looking at the empty doorway, a look of disappointment instantly appeared on her face. Just as she reached out and wanted to push the door open, something seemed to have happened. She looked behind her with a sense of emotion, but there was only the same quiet old street as usual, and the old yellow lights. Gan Ruo continued to stretch her hand forward, but the iron door that was close at hand seemed to move backwards, and the distance between her outstretched hand and the iron door did not change. Gan Ruoxiu frowned slightly, she put the thing in her hand on the ground, took a step forward, and quickly stretched out her hand, trying to grasp the disobedient door. But in that moment, the door began to move, and in a breath it was plunged into boundless darkness, along with everything that was enclosed by the courtyard.
Gan Ruo realized that something terrible had happened, because everything around her began to leave her, and everything was drowned out in a black ocean. She looked at the sky, and the night sky, which should have been starry, was also pitch black. The pitch-black canopy was like a large net, silently pressing down on her, and the astonishing pressure made her feel like she was about to suffocate, and she couldn't even say a word of cry for help.
Under the blow of all kinds of abnormal situations, Gan Ruo finally panicked. The fear and cowardice that had been suppressed by her once permeated from the depths of her heart at this moment, like an invisible hand holding her tightly. She knew she was hallucinating, but as the powerless fear and cowardice gradually revived, the pain she had buried deep in her memory came back to life.
She couldn't help but start recalling, and the image in front of her began to change with it. When the floodgates of memory were completely opened, the painful images that poured out of it brought her back to more than a decade ago, to that night she could never forget.
At that time, like other ordinary children, she had her own parents and her own family. She is rightfully regarded as the jewel of her palm, and she lives happily with her family.
However, all the good past and future seemed to be shattered with the arrival of that night. It was a seemingly quiet night, and young Gan Ruo had just finished watching a movie with his parents, walking down the pale road illuminated by white lights. Without saying a word, they walked in the direction of the car, ready to go home immediately. Also walking on this road, there are quite a few people who seem to be drunk. They were dressed in decent clothes, but behaved like disoriented vagabonds, wandering the streets aimlessly.
"Dad. That uncle walks so funny!" Gan Ruo innocently pointed to a man who was wandering along the road.
Her father swallowed a mouthful of saliva, tried to keep his composure, and said, "Xiao Ruo, it's not right to laugh at others. ”
"Oh. Ganruo stuck out his tongue.
Mom, who was firmly grasping one of her hands, glared at her dad and made a gesture to silence him. Dad, who was already in a cold sweat, nodded and grabbed Gan Ruo's other hand. In fact, when they came out of the movie theater with a strange atmosphere, they felt that something was wrong, because it seemed that they were the only ones who came out. Dad offered to go back and see it, but Mom took a look at the movie theater, which was half of the movie theater on the ground floor, and rejected Dad's offer. Now it seems that it may not be a wise choice to come out, but who knows what it will be like in that movie theater. Although they are unknowingly surrounded by "people" who look like zombies in the movie they just watched, the same situation as in the movie is not happening. Dad and Mom can also encourage themselves with a little luck, these people are drunk and run out on the street by themselves.
Their black sedan was just in front of them, only a few dozen paces away. The reason why they parked their cars here was because they were told that there was no parking lot in the movie theater, and there was no surveillance here, so most people would choose to park here. There were a few cars here when they came, but now they are the only ones left, and maybe the others have long since left.
Mom and Dad quickened their pace, but they forgot that the young Ganruo couldn't keep up with the pace.
"Mom and Dad, slow down!" Gan Ruo cried.
At that moment, a strange flower-shaped mark appeared at the center of her eyebrows. The mark that suddenly emerged from under her skin had seven different colors and did not belong to any of the known flowers.
At the moment of the appearance of this mark, the "people" wandering around were all stunned, and then, like a swarm of moths suddenly discovering a light in the darkness, rushed in this direction.
"Run!" shouted as Ganruo's father bent down to pick her up and ran away in the direction of the black sedan. Ganruo's mother tiptoed and followed. Although those "people" were staggering, they were not slow at all, and some of them even ran faster than them.
The only thing to be thankful for is that those "people" are still some distance away from them. One by one, before the "people" could catch up with them, they got into the car and fastened their seat belts.
"Hurry up!" Gan Ruo's mother roared.
Gan Ruo's father gritted his teeth and started the car. Just then, a crazy man appeared in front of them and rushed towards them. Gan Ruo's father was nervous and subconsciously stepped on the accelerator. The black sedan suddenly let out a dull roar, crashed into the crazy "man", and swept his body under the car. However, before Gan Ruo's father could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a sound of metal twisting from under the car, and it was the "person" tearing at the base of the car.
Can this still be considered a human being? Gan Ruo's father almost collapsed, but when he glanced at his wife and woman who were even more panicked, his eyes became cruel again. He turned the car around and drove up the side of the roadblock. After a jolt, there was a sudden silence under the car. Dad didn't dare to look back at the situation on the ground, so he stepped on the accelerator and headed straight for the road. On both sides, groups of "people" caught up, dancing and moving forward at a rapid pace. The kind of "people" who spin their legs and swing forward, Ganruo's father prefers to treat them as monsters.
It was only when they got closer that they could see the crazy looks on the faces of these people in the rearview mirror, and saw their pale skin, and the twisted blue-gray streaks that were all over it.
Gan Ruo's father yelled, stepped on the accelerator to the end, knocked a few "people" into the road, but drifted on the road because the speed was too fast. In just a few seconds, the group of "people" caught up.
Gan Ruo's mother turned pale with fright, and covered Gan Ruo's mouth without saying a word. Gan Ruo's father looked at the "people" approaching quickly in front of him, and accelerated again. The "man" in front of him was unsurprisingly hit by the powerful car or swept under the wheels. Although the "people" who were swept under the wheels were ruthlessly run over, they still adhered to the principle of madness, using all their limbs to block the operation of the vehicle.
Just as the car ran over the group of "people", two "people" jumped onto the rear window. Then they kicked through the glass, put their feet in, and then grabbed the lid with their hands and folded it upwards.
The sound of metal being snapped irritated their eardrums, and Gan Ruo's mother, who was sitting in the front row, finally screamed uncontrollably.
Gan Ruo's father hurriedly made a sharp turn and turned into a wider road. One of the people who was opening the lid of the car was immediately thrown down, while the other person took the opportunity to grab the window when he was thrown down, and the spread of blood-colored pupils coldly locked on the people inside the window.
Before Gan Ruo's father could react, the crazy "man" broke the car window and grabbed him tightly by the neck with one hand. Blue-gray streaked hands clamped firmly around his neck, and the terrible force squeezed his throat, choking his screams in his throat. Gan Ruo's father subconsciously wanted to turn the car again and completely throw this "person" off. But in his extreme panic, he forgot that his neck had been firmly clamped by the other party.
Amid the screams of Ganruo and her mother, the car spun on the road and crashed into a nearby light pole, while Ganruo's father's head was almost ripped out of the window, and the sharp glass punctured his carotid artery, and blood gushed out.
As soon as the hand of the "person" who was also affected was released, Gan Ruo's father shouted "Run!" with all his might!
Gan Ruo's mother opened the car door, got out of the car from the other side with Gan Ruo in her arms, and ran desperately in the direction away from here. She was close to collapse and didn't dare to look back, she didn't even bother to wipe the tears that had just welled up from her eyes, and the only thought left in her heart was - escape, escape from this place, anywhere, as long as there were no human-like creatures.
The pale light illuminated the same gray-white concrete road, and a cold wind suddenly blew under the dark night sky, transmitting the approaching roar to the ears of Gan Ruo and her mother.
Suddenly, the heel of Gan Ruo's mother's high heel broke, and the mother and daughter immediately fell to the ground together. Gan Ruo's mother couldn't care about anything, she directly ignored the pain in her feet, and shook her shoes to the ground while helping Gan Ruo up.
"Xiao Ruo! if ......" Gan Ruo's mother wanted to explain something, however, a hand covered in blue-gray stripes pierced her chest and reached in front of Gan Ruo. The crimson blood slowly dripped along the blue-gray lines, and her life was passing rapidly.
Looking at his mother's instantaneous frozen eyes, Gan Ruo, who was already in tears, cried as hard as he could, "Don't!"
Her voice pierced through the illusion, into reality, into Gan Tian's ears. He was watching TV, and he reflexively bounced up from the sofa, and Gan Tian, who instantly distinguished it by Xiao Ruo's voice, immediately rushed out of the door in the direction of the sound.
As soon as he rushed out of the door, Gan Tian saw Xiao Ruo standing at the door of the fence with tears streaming down his face, surrounded by a group of black, twisted unknown objects. They swirled around Ganruo, sometimes like a black vortex, sometimes separated into several twisted human forms.
The moment he saw the tears on Gan Ruo's face, Gan Tian couldn't stay calm anymore. 'Dare to make my little Ruo cry, she has never shed tears in front of me. No, this kind of behavior - cannot be excused. ’
A dark and turbid feeling permeated from the bottom of Gan Tian's heart, and instantly dominated all of him. The heart is not an imaginary volcanic eruption, but a kind of indifference and cruelty that everything is under control. Gan Tian looked coldly at the distorted black figures with a gaze that seemed to be looking at something that shouldn't exist, and raised his left hand as he stepped forward. On the back of Gan Tian's hand, the once-hidden mysterious purple leaf vein-like lines finally appeared, releasing an astonishing coercion.
A purple wheel of light appeared behind Gan Ruo, and with infinite coercion, it fixed all the black figures who tried to escape. Then, the purple wheel of light began to rotate under Gan Tian's will. In just an instant, all the black figures let out a scream like a scream and shattered into the void. At the moment when the black humanoid shattered, the purple light wheel also disappeared.
Looking at the crumbling Gan Ruo, Gan Tian hurriedly rushed over and picked her up. At this time, Gan Tian's mood calmed down a little, but he still didn't have any extra reason to think about what had just happened, his attention was focused on Gan Ruo, who had his eyes closed and his lips trembling.
In the illusion, a hideous-looking "person" appeared behind his mother, and then, the bloody hand continued to reach out to Gan Ruo, who had no power to resist. At the last moment, the whole "person" burst into flames, like a red humanoid torch. The bloody hand threw stubbornly at Gan Ruo, slapping Gan Ruo's face with flames, exploding into countless sparks. The flame that has a terrifying lethality to "people" is like a warm sunshine to Gan Ruo, giving her just the right amount of warmth.
Everything happened suddenly, and the young Gan Ruo didn't have time to react at all. She maintained her original position, watching a red-haired young man with a sculptural side face emerge from the flames and stand in front of her. A sun-like pattern emitted the same color as the sun in the palm of the young man's right palm, and the astonishing red flame poured down from this sun, encompassing both the young man and Gan Ruo.
The young man swung his right hand with a heavy face, expanding the flames. The "people" roared, still running frantically like moths that suddenly found light in the darkness. But this time, it's the real moths to the fire. All the "people" who stepped into this flame turned into human-shaped torches in an instant, and after running a few steps, they exploded into sparks in the sky.
Watching those "people" plunge into the flames one by one, the young man continued to increase the range of flames from his hands as usual. Under the reckless and crazy onslaught of the "people", their numbers are rapidly decreasing. In less than half a minute, there are no more "people" running wildly on the wide road. However, this was not the end, and the earth that gradually began to shake made the young man's brow frown slightly.
He looked up, his gaze piercing the trees beside the road, stretching along the earth until he reached the more powerful humanoids that were about two meters or so rushing wildly. Their skin had faded from a pale color to a red closer to flesh, but it was also covered in the blue-gray streaks. The spread of blood-colored pupils seemed to pass through the woods, staring dead in the direction of the young man.
In the next second, a humanoid creature leaped out of the woods, and more appeared on the road in all directions. At their terrifying speed, that distance was only a few seconds.
At the same time, the young man swiped a strangely shaped disc-shaped device on his left wrist. The space in front of the young man's eyes immediately fluctuated, as if an invisible circle spread out around him, and the flames were extinguished everywhere he went. When a set of blood-colored armor crossed the space and perfectly coincided with the young man's figure, all the surrounding flames were extinguished at the same moment.
The blood-colored armor has a unique shape, completely enveloping the young man's whole body, and the whole body seems to be made of metal, but when you look closely, it looks like a strong muscle with a metal texture. This armor is not all blood, but has a large number of white and gold lines interspersed with it, dividing the armor into different parts. His eyes are covered in two red crystals, and the complex texture looks like the compound eyes of an insect. The four horns were arranged on his forehead, bending and stabbing into the sky in turn, like bloodthirsty teeth.
"Armored!" the young man said coldly, and a layer of red fleshy armor immediately appeared on his right arm, and dozens of blood-colored thorn blades, large and small, grew on it, filled with the aura of killing.
At this time, the two-meter-tall monsters had already approached them and pounced on them from all directions.
"Don't do it yourself!" the young man sneered. He raised his hand and swung a palm in one direction, and a red palm print rushed out of his palm with his movements, magnifying and greeting. The red palm prints easily penetrated their bodies, turning them into humanoid torches in the air, even if they were just rubbed by the red palm prints, they would turn into burning torches in the next moment. The torches were still stubbornly running towards him, but what awaited them was a sharp blow that completely slapped them into sparks.
The monsters kept rushing at them, and the young people kept waving their palms. When he raised his hand, the monster disappeared.
However, their number is no less than that of the previous "people", but they have a stronger ability and speed to resist. So this situation lasted less than half a minute, and the young man glanced back at Gan Ruo, who was still in a daze, and decisively paddled the roulette wheel in his left hand, which had turned dark gold.
As if an ancient clock was turning, the roulette wheel spun one after the other, blooming with a dazzling golden light. Circles of golden divine rings swung up on the surface of the young man's body, and as he ascended, they exploded in circles and circles, releasing an immortal golden brilliance that dyed his armor the same color. Immediately after, the armor on the surface of the young man's body also exploded. Underneath the red armor was a set of metal armor that glowed with golden brilliance. Before the ever-blooming brilliance was extinguished, before the golden rings that were constantly waving stopped being released, and before Gan Ruo could see the true face of this armor, the young man dialed the roulette wheel that had turned red and gold again.
All of a sudden, a lot seemed to have happened. But in front of Gan Ruo's eyes, the young man just tossed the roulette wheel again in that golden light, and then, in her eyes, there was a smiling red-haired young man, and behind him, there were monsters exploding in the air one by one. The golden light had not completely disappeared, and the explosion behind him was not yet over, so the red-haired young man squatted down, gently wiped away his tears for Gan Ruo, and then touched her head.
"Xiao Ruo, you have to remember. Even if all the people in the world betray you, I will always love you. With that, the young man cut his finger and pointed it at the strange coat of arms in the center of Gan Ruo's eyebrows. When his fingers left, Ganruo's forehead became as smooth and white as before, and there was not even a trace of blood to be seen. The young man who had done all this stood up and turned to leave.
At this moment, Gan Ruo, who couldn't help but shed tears, choked up and said, "Why didn't you come earlier?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then disappeared before her eyes. Disappearing, there is all the picture in front of her at this moment.
"Why didn't you come earlier?" the last sentence, Gan Ruo almost shouted.
