Chapter 119: Secret

The torrent of colorful light in the sky seems to have originated from here, and in the void in the distance, there are brilliant rays of light intertwined into a river, extending from the void, like an upside-down waterfall, rising to the sky, unfolding layers of branches.

This is the chaotic turbulence, and even researchers at Miskatonik University have not been able to explain its nature and form until now.

Running through the human world and subspace, existing between the real and the unreal, it has flowed silently since the birth of mankind, and has never changed or stopped in the slightest due to the changes of history.

Some people call it the blood of the gods, the true source of 'power', but others call it the forbidden river, and many researchers believe that it is the pillar that supports this world.

The turtle that carries the world in Indian legend, the 'World Tree' that runs through the five worlds in Norse mythology, may have been born from its prototype?

If it weren't for the turmoil twenty years ago, I am afraid that all human beings in this world would not be able to observe this gorgeous and magnificent scene.

Earnestly gazing at this diffuse river of rainbow light and light, in Zhou Li's cyan eyes, the river of light revealed all kinds of colorful colors, flowing in the sky of this world clearly, extending to unknown places.

It was like an impossibly large tree, a branch extending from a distant world, and even its branches were magnificent; Compared to it, subspace is only the fruit of its branches.

After a long time, Zhou Li finally lowered his head and observed the square not far away that was not shrouded in fog.

Below the chaotic turbulence, layers of broken bricks are illuminated by light, and the ubiquitous fog seems to disappear here; The earth is no longer an illusory paleness, but reveals the solid texture of green bricks.

Like a dilapidated ring gladiatorial arena, the stone steps that serve as auditoriums have been eroded by time and history, and the original appearance can no longer be seen, wisps of grass grow from the cracks of the boulders, and unknown wildflowers are in full bloom.

In the central square, Zhou Li can clearly see countless notches on the bluestone floor tiles, some of which are like knives and axes; Some of them were like scratches torn by sharp claws, and even after a long time, the brutal killing aura that remained here did not dissipate.

On the contrary, it is even stronger because of the existence of a person.

Like a stone sculpture, the scarlet-clad knight sat silently in the square, as if waiting for someone to arrive, or as if he could sit there until the end of the world.

The dark steed strolled lazily through the square, and if it weren't for the undried blood on the horse's mane, there would be no trace of the original violent appearance.

Leisurely and lazily, he lowered his head and chewed the grass growing in the cracks of the stone, and when he sensed Zhou Li's arrival, the horse raised his head to look at him, and then lowered his head and continued to look for food.

Opening her eyes from Zhou Li's arms, the girl raised her palm engraved with a black code, pointed at the knight and said, "This is it." ”

Zhou Li stood at the edge of the square, looked down at the silent knight in the field, and once again recalled the killing intent without any other impurities in his scarlet eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Why is he here?" ”

The girl looked at him suspiciously, and after being silent for a while, she said as she should, "Originally, it should be there." ”

Zhou Li's smile became more and more helpless, this question was really too difficult for this taciturn girl. What exactly she was talking about, Zhou Li couldn't fully understand.

Carefully putting down the girl in his arms, he looked at the silent knight in the distance, and asked in a low voice, "So what next?" What to do? Say hi to the past? ”

Gently holding his fingers, the girl stepped barefoot on the cold steps, climbed down the steps, and a soft voice sounded: "Follow me, come." ”

Zhou Li looked at the silent blood-armored knight who was still motionless, a trace of vigilance appeared in his eyes, and his right hand was clenched in the air, as if grasping an invisible hilt.

To his surprise, the knight and the black horse, who had been mad and violent like wild beasts, did not make any other moveβ€”the knight sat silently on the ground, with the heavy, worn-out spear in his lap, as if asleep; The black giant horse chewed the grass quietly, and just raised his head and glanced at it when Zhou Li passed by him.

Standing in front of the knight, the girl looked at the knight in silence. And just under the knight's hollow armor, a pair of eyes lit up again, the hollow helmet slowly raised, and the gaze fell on the woman's face.

In the armor, the invisible mist that gathered and dispersed was constantly changing, vaguely condensing into an old and cold face, and under the background of those scarlet eyes, he turned into a murderous military general again.

Looking at the girl's pale cheeks seriously, a trace of regret and helplessness seemed to flash in his cold pupils, and his lips were opened and closed as if he was saying something.

It's like a conversation between a girl and herself.,Directly turn the words into thoughts loaded with information.,It sounds like it's ringing directly in your ears.。

What exactly they said, Zhou Li couldn't guess, but after a long time, the old face under the blood armor slowly shook his head.

A hint of loss flashed across the girl's face, and after a pause, the spirit under the blood armor seemed to say something again, causing her to fall into a stupor, and bow her head.

No longer looking at her, the blood-armored knight turned around, his blood-colored pupils looked at Zhou Li behind her, but a hoarse voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "I recognize you...... I've seen you on the other side of the world. ”

A strange look flashed in Zhou Li's eyes, this guy wanted to kill himself without asking even a question not long ago.

What's going on with this attitude now?

After a pause, he nodded and said, "It should be...... Fourth time we've met, right? What do you call it? ”

Looking at the vigilance in Zhou Li's eyes, the hoarse voice suddenly laughed: "Whatever, anyway, after a while, you'll be the enemy, aren't you?" ”

Carefully pulling the silent girl behind him, Zhou Li clenched the invisible blade and asked coldly, "Since you want to do it, why wait until now?" ”

"Just thinking about a problem."

A hoarse voice said: "I have lived in this world for so many years, and after I woke up a few days ago, I began to think about this question, but I couldn't figure it out; After going to your world, I still can't figure it out......"

Zhou Li was silent, as an enemy, he was not interested in asking what this guy was thinking, whether it was the philosophy of life or the puzzles of the world, Zhou Li didn't care, the only thing he cared about was only one thing:

"What did she just say to you?"

The scarlet pupils raised, looking at Zhou Li's expression, and the hoarse voice in the armor laughed again: "This world is about to collapse and dissipate, she doesn't want you to be trapped here forever, she wants me to send you out." ”

In an instant, there was a cracking and roaring sound in the sky, and the torrent of light from the River of Chaos continued to tremble, and the concussive light illuminated Zhou Li's expression extremely gloomy.

As it said, this subspace, which had been inflated wildly after absorbing twenty years of dreams, was about to collapse.

Most of the subspace is like this, like a floating in the twilight of life and death, erupting overnight, and dissipating into sunlight at dawn.

The human soul is reflected in the turbulent current of chaos, so that this world of dreams can be created, relying on the dreams of human beings - when everyone in this city wakes up from their dreams, it is the moment when this subspace collapses.

This is the fate of most of the small subspaces, and unless they are those that are structurally stable enough to rival reality, most of them will be destroyed according to their predetermined fate.

When the day comes, people will wake up from their slumber, and this vast world, which has exploded rapidly due to the explosion of potential, will also collapse and collapse rapidly.

Eventually, it may be possible to turn from an illusory structure into a stable ruin, and until then, the things of this world will survive...... I'm afraid there's not much left.

Outsiders caught up in the collapse will be eternally banished to the endless stream of chaos, or assimilated into a part of it by energy in an instant, or forever drifted away in a place where even the concept of time does not exist.

And the girl's wish is to get herself out of here before that.

Thinking of this, Zhou Li turned his head to look at the silent girl behind him, his eyes were serious, and when he noticed his gaze, the girl lowered her head in some frustration.

Gently rubbing her hair, Zhou Li squatted down to look into her eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Is it just me?" ”

A hoarse laugh suddenly came from behind, and the old face under the blood armor sneered: "She is different from you, she doesn't belong to that side of the world." ”

In an instant, Zhou Wei's anger and depression completely exploded under this mocking laughter, and the cyan rainbow light burned in the pupils like flames, and he turned to look at the strangely smiling knight, roaring and asking, "Then what is the matter with her?!!! ”

"She didn't tell you? Ha ha...... It's so interesting. ”

The knight raised his scarlet eyes to look at him and laughed again, "It seems...... You don't know anything! Her blood ......"

In an instant, the girl raised her head, but her eyes were full of anger, as if she had been touched by the deepest scars, like a cat about to go crazy.

Clenching her palm hard, Zhou Li gently stroked her hair, stopping her struggle, until after a long time, she finally stopped moving, silent tears left from her cheeks, and shook her head vigorously at Zhou Li.

Zhou Li looked at those eyes, obviously there was no sound, but for the first time he understood what she wanted to say, she was praying.

That's it, please don't say any more, please don't ...... anymore Ask to go on!
