Act Three: Frostfall Rebellion Chapter 38: Saving the Swallowing Snake
Looking at the familiar ceiling, Lynn didn't get up immediately, she didn't understand what had happened to her.
She deduced what had happened before, but she didn't realize that with the death of one after another, the memories of the node were dissipating little by little, and she was beginning to gradually integrate into this world, perhaps, when she completely forgot everything, she would be completely integrated into this world, and she would also die here completely with the attack of the beasts.
Coming out of the room, Lynn saw her mother preparing lunch, she looked at the wall clock in the living room, ten o'clock, and in two quarters, her father should come back for dinner.
It's just that the most important thing now is......
What is it? Lin looked at her mother who was busy in the kitchen, and felt as if something very important had been suddenly forgotten by her, and she tried to think about it, but found that she couldn't remember anything except that it was almost time to eat.
Why is this happening? What exactly did I forget? Lynn pondered as she walked in the direction of the kitchen.
"I'll help you!" Lin, who had been standing at the kitchen door for a long time, looked at her mother who was busy in the kitchen, and immediately stopped thinking about the thoughts that she couldn't remember, and prepared to help her mother prepare lunch.
"It's Lin'er." When Lin's mother heard the voice, she looked back and saw Lin standing at the kitchen door.
"Bring the dishes and chopsticks, I've already done the rest." A smile appeared on Lin's mother's face, with a hint of wrinkles, it seems that for an ordinary person, time is the easiest to leave traces on her body.
Lin was stunned to take the three pairs of chopsticks, her mother's smile, made her feel both familiar and strange, her heart twitched slightly, the sea of knowledge was like lightning flashing, a thought suddenly appeared in her mind, ten o'clock and two minutes, the beast tide attacked, the city-state was destroyed......
"Pop ............" The chopsticks in Lin's hand fell to the ground, and a crisp cracking sound sounded, which frightened Lin's mother, who was cooking, into a clever one.
"Why are you so careless, did you get hurt?" Lin's mother came over and took Lin's hand, watching with concern, until she was relieved to confirm that she was not hurt.
Lin's heart was already panicked, and she grabbed her mother, who was about to turn around and continue cooking: "Mom, let's run away quickly, the city-state is about to fall." ”
Lin's mother was slightly stunned, and then she put the back of her hand on Lin's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "What nonsense is this kid talking about?" The city-state is so easy to ............" Before her words fell, a violent roar accompanied by a vibration tossed the mother and daughter to the ground.
"What's going on?" Mother Lin hurriedly got up, she ran to the window, at this time the street was already a mess, and vaguely saw the shadow of the beast flashing at the end of the street, Mother Lin even saw that the grandmother next door who often sat together and chatted on weekdays was thrown to the ground by a beast more than three meters long that resembled a dog, and her neck had been completely bitten off between the sharp teeth and bite.
"How could it be ......" Mother Lin retreated in panic, just now, there were already beasts through the window, seeing her. She turned around and wanted to run, but she saw Lin, who had just gotten up and was looking at her, and was about to stop her footsteps suddenly, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes............
Lynn rose a little slower, and when she looked at her mother, she saw her tear-drenched cheeks and her resolute expression.
Before Lin could react, Lin's mother had already opened the door and rushed out, she actually wanted to use herself as bait to lure away the beasts that had noticed the house.
"Don't ............" Tears suddenly welled up in Lynn's eyes, and she reached out to grab the figure, but through the crack in the door that was about to close, she saw that the familiar figure had been thrown to the ground by several beasts that looked like bobcats.
"Don't ......" Lin cried weakly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the kitchen knife in the kitchen, her eyes lit up slightly, and she pulled out two longer kitchen knives from the knife rack in a panic, Lin wiped the tears from her face with her arm, and quickly rushed towards the door.
The streets were filled with firelight, screams, wails, cries for help, and beast roars formed a desperate music, and Lin opened the door to see that more than twenty meters away, several cats and beasts were biting a broken corpse. If it weren't for the fact that the corpse still had a clover bracelet on its arm, she wouldn't have been able to tell that it was her mother.
Lin gritted her teeth, the flames of hatred beating in her eyes, and she raised her immature little hand, holding the kitchen knife, and rushed towards the cats and beasts.
Obviously, in the eyes of these cats and beasts, young Lin was not a threat, and as for the two pieces of broken iron in her hand, there was no threat.
Lynn had a gleam of resentment in her eyes, and it was hard to imagine that this emotion would appear in a child of her age, ten meters, five meters, and the distance was getting closer and closer......
"Kill them and avenge your mother!" The voice kept echoing in Lynn's heart, and just as she was about to rush to the cats and beasts, three claws flashed suddenly, and Lynn couldn't stop walking, but she couldn't take another step, and finally, she fell to the ground, turning into several pieces of corpse............
At the end of the town, three figures stood up, none other than Ressa, Lico, and Lis, who had just woken up.
They didn't move, and as Lynn was killed by the cats and beasts in the distance, the whole town suddenly fell into a strange stillness, and after a few minutes, it was as if the hands of time had been reversed, and the panicked crowds in the town, as well as the tide of beasts killing everywhere, all disappeared, and peace and tranquility were restored to the town, and Resa seemed to be aware of it, and he looked at the clock tower in the center of the city.
Although the distance from here to the center of the city was already far away, he could still see the current time clearly, and at a quarter past ten, time was reversed.
"How? Still can't participate in the world? Resa looked at Licoris, who was constantly tinkering, in their hands, a purple ball of light formed by red and blue was constantly spinning, the two girls had been trying, trying to integrate this ball of light into this world, but unfortunately, Gu Du ended in failure.
"Her mental power is too strong for us to influence her, not even when she dies." Rico replied as she tinkered.
"It's really hard to imagine that Lin, who looks soft and weak, actually has such a huge spiritual power." Lisi sighed in surprise: "Brother Ressa, if we continue like this, won't we be able to save Lynn back?" I could feel her consciousness drifting into a deep sleep. ”
"It's a tricky situation, but before we can do that, we need to find out how we can intervene in the world, and through these two bystanders, I think I know what Lynn's demons are." Ressa looked at the bell tower in the distance, and as time passed, the hands were approaching ten o'clock again.
"Lin is really pitiful, she experienced such a cruel thing at such a young age, if it were me, she would definitely go crazy!" Sympathy was written all over Lise's face. Previously, she had always felt that the other party was not suitable for being a Guardian, let alone an explorer who was even more dangerous than a Guardian.
And now, it seems, perhaps, that she had misunderstood her all along, and even at this moment, Liz felt that she could understand why Lin chose to become a guardian.
"Haven't you gone crazy already?" Ressa rubbed Lis's little head and teased with a smile.
"Ahh Brother Resa won't allow you to expose other people's secrets! Lisi glared at Resa in shame: "I found out that Brother Ressa, you have become bad now, hum~~~"
"What are you afraid of, there are no outsiders here." Resa couldn't help but wonder, this little girl, she actually knows how to be shy.
"Humph! That's not allowed to be mentioned either. Lis's face showed a hint of loneliness, maybe Ressa said this because he didn't see the scene where he killed his sister, but Lis's heart has been unable to let go of this, even if she knows, in the enchantment of Long Lao, she can't be killed, and she can't pass her own level.
Ressa was keenly aware of Lis's changes, and immediately put away his laughter, he had just given a few words to comfort Lis, and a violent explosion sounded from the edge of the town, and when Resa followed the prestige, he saw that the garrison of the city-state, under the impact of the beast tide, was broken in an instant.
"Keep it up, this time, we can't miss anything again." A scarlet mist emanated from Ressa's body, and this mist merged into the purple ball of light in Lycoris's hand, making the ball of light a little brighter......
