Tang Jing operated and unlocked the restriction of the hatch.

The hatch opened, a cloud of white mist gushed out, Tang Jing covered his mouth and nose, and waited patiently.

As the white mist gradually dissipated, he finally saw the figure, and his originally calm face was suddenly full of surprise.

He was no stranger to this person, but he was very unfamiliar with this state.

The body had become shriveled, as if it had been drained of its blood. A pile of dead skin on the lips indicates that the person has not taken water for a long time.

Tang Jing looked at all this blankly, not understanding what was going on.

Why is he here?

The person in front of him, although his skin became wrinkled, and although the whole person looked like a vampire who hadn't sucked blood for a long time, thin and weak, Tang Jing still recognized that face at a glance-

Tang Xian.

This is Tang Xian's face, Tang Jing never expected that in the seventh nutrition cabin, he would see Tang Xian, or Tang Xian in this appearance.

But what made Tang Jing feel brain-burning the most was what happened next.

When the door of the last pod opened, it was as if a preset switch had been triggered.

There was a voice from the room.

"We've considered the possibilities of facing the Lord of Eden, but we've also wondered if it's too optimistic, maybe the Lord of Eden has cards we don't know, so we have to keep some means. I know you must have a lot of question marks in your head, but I can't answer your questions here, because I'm not sure if it's humans or Edens who are here. ”

There was only one passage that sounded like a premonition of some moment of utter despair. But he didn't tell Tang Jing the cause and effect, and he didn't even tell him how to deal with the "Tang Xian" in front of him.

Is this a real Tang Xian or a fake Tang Xian?

The Lord of Eden took away Tang Xian's body, so what happened to this Tang Xian in front of him?

Tang Jing had a feeling that his brother might have cooperated with Qiyuan for a long time, and this cooperation was hidden from everyone, including himself. This may be a very clever and dangerous move.

But until this moment, he couldn't guess the intention.

The broken and aging Tang Xian in front of him, do you want to be rescued? Do you want to leave him alone?

How, exactly?

This time, Tang Jing really couldn't guess the intention, so much so that he didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

"Forget it, we have to let him live first. Maybe when he's conscious, he'll be able to figure out what's going on. ”

Tang Jing subconsciously, he naturally didn't think that this person who looked exactly like Tang Xian was Tang Xian.

In fact, this is indeed not Tang Xian, Tang Xian's real body was indeed taken away by the Lord of Eden.

It's just that Tang Jing can only do it until this body that doesn't seem to wake up wakes up.

……

……

Ruins of Eden.

Once the boundaries between the real and the unreal are broken, the world becomes strange and absurd.

Tang Xian had forgotten how long he had been in this world.

Three years? Five years? Or half a year? Or ten years?

It's not that he doesn't have a concept of time, it's that his memory is confused.

From the moment he said goodbye to Zhong Yao and left the holy land and entered the ruins area, the worst survival challenge had begun.

What awaits Tang Xian is an endless calamity.

The Lord of Eden fears the world itself, not the creatures it brings.

In the face of the vastness of the universe, it does not know what kind of challenges it will face.

It compares Tang Xian to one of his bosom friends, and when Tang Xian steps into this ruin, it concretizes all the fears in his heart.

Strange weather, terrifying energy fluctuations, ferocious beasts.

The ruins that Tang Xian stepped into were far more terrifying than the labyrinth, because living here was a luxury.

Countless ancient creatures that even Tang Xian had never heard of were hunting wantonly in this land.

The thunder in the sky never stopped. Occasionally, meteorites will fall, causing massive destruction and leaving many creatures to their deaths.

Occasionally, there will be earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and it sounds like a regular natural disaster.

But in the realm of ruins, where illusion and reality are intertwined, all this is extremely terrifying, and Tang Xian is sure that even a catastrophe-level creature must rely on luck to survive here. Tang Xian knew that this world was a half-fake and half-real world, and the ruins were originally real, but now they had been swallowed up by the will of the Lord of Eden.

The interweaving of reality and fantasy makes this place as hellish as hell.

But even so, Tang Xian survived here.

He is a consciousness that, once dead, is fragmented. But he didn't die, and he was even close to the center.

His goal was to find the body of the Lord of Eden in the Heartland. As long as he has the entity, Tang Xian can return from the world of consciousness to the real reality.

But this thing is not easy.

"Qi Yuan, Zhong Yao, Yan Xiaoling, Li Xiaoyu, Tang Jing......"

"Qiyuan, Zhong Yao, Yan Xiaoling, Li Xiaoyu, Tang Jing, Qiyuan, Zhong Yao, Yan Xiaoling, Li Xiaoyu, Tang Jing, Qiyuan......"

In the gloomy cave, Tang Xian kept chanting these names, and when he found that there were only five names to read, Tang Xian also had a sense of despair in his heart.

……

……

Ruins and holy places.

It's the world of the Lord of Eden, and here is to the Lord of Eden, it's like the kingdom of God is to the source of discord.

What Tang Xian can do is to escape from here, not disintegrate here.

So he was wrong from the beginning, and the fault was that he couldn't do anything about himself. Thinking that he could find a hole in this world, he fell into one of the worst traps of the Lord of Eden.

Is it the beasts and harsh environments that the Lord of Eden has created with his consciousness that is really dangerous?

Tang Xian thought it was true at first, but now he knew that what was really dangerous was the rules of the game.

From the first day of entering the ruins, Tang Xian discovered one thing - there was no way out.

All around is a white patch, and once you touch it, you will feel some kind of force cutting through your consciousness.

It's like the edge of the game, and if you get closer, you'll get a warning that if you don't open the area, you may fail the game if you go deeper.

Tang Xian had just stepped into the ruins of Eden, and he was faced with such a thing. He couldn't see the distant scene, and beside him, there was only a blank street sign.

But he didn't back down.

On the contrary, the more the other party hinders, the more your judgment is correct, and if you go deep into the ruins, you can find the weakness of the Lord of Eden.

And how can you find your way where there is no road?

This is a duel between Tang Xian and the Lord of Eden.

Tang Xian has known many, many people in his life. If it was an equivalent exchange, he didn't mind letting himself forget about a few inconsequential people.

This rule is not difficult to understand, in the ruins of Eden, Tang Xian has no way not to follow the rules of the Lord of Eden.

He could only write a name on a road sign, someone he knew, but it didn't matter.

The rules took effect immediately, and after writing this name, Tang Xian's mind had no memory of this person, and he looked at the name on the street sign and already felt very unfamiliar.

And everything around is no longer a white expanse, heaven, earth, mountains and seas are beginning to show what they should be.

The quest to find the true body of the Lord of Eden has really begun.

It's the first day. Tang Xian began to familiarize himself with and adapt to the harsh environment of the ruins, and at the same time, according to his own judgment, he looked for the direction of the central area.

He quickly explored this area, successfully avoiding all kinds of disasters and beasts, and came to the second road sign.

At this point, he probably understood the purpose of the Lord of Eden.

Maybe you are still far from the end, you have to go through countless road signs, and in the end, you will lose the memory of many people in your memory.

Tang Xian didn't guess wrong, these memories would indeed be erased from his mind and transferred to the Lord of Eden.

Therefore, the Lord of Eden has been waiting in the Holy Mountain, and seems to be quite patient, no matter what kind of secret Tang Xian is hiding, it will be known after all.

All it takes is some time.

Tang Xian didn't hesitate too much, after all, it was only the second day, and there were countless people in his memory that could be used to "eliminate".

Day 3...... Day 4...... Day 5...... Day 170...... Day 190......

The time of the Ruins of Eden is the same as the Holy Land, completely different from the outside world, and the vastness of the Ruins of Eden is far beyond Tang Xian's imagination.

He constantly erases all kinds of existences from his memories in exchange for the qualification to open up the ruins.

By the time of the third hundredth, nearly a year, Tang Xian had already felt that there were many things in his memory that did not match.

At this time, he had two choices, follow those road signs and return to Zhong Yao's side.

But in this way, these memories are lost in vain.

This is the chessboard of the Lord of Eden, and all the rules are set by it, but Tang Xian is still very unwilling to give up in the middle of the way.

He already felt that he had come to a very central area, and perhaps the body of the Lord of Eden was hidden in this place.

This is a gambler's mentality, but Tang Xian has no choice, he must leave here and return to reality to have the possibility of defeating the Lord of Eden.

Six hundred days.

Tang Xian finally wrote down the first name that had something to do with him, Lin Sen.

This ruffian who flirted with women with a baseball bat was now completely erased from Tang Xian's memory.

Before this, there were some old miners who Tang Xian had worked together at the bottom of the mine, as well as Song Zhe, the contractor, and even Jiang Ming, the auditor who was sorry for Tang Xian, and so on.

Because Tang Xian's exploration is sometimes fast, he may encounter road signs several times a day.

So it's possible to have several memories removed in a single day.

Tang Xian knew that his partners must be working hard to save themselves, or they were desperately trying to protect Baichuan City.

He wanted to retreat many times, but the thought of these people gave him the courage to confront the Lord of Eden.

This is the most desperate illusion left by the Lord of Eden to Tang Xian.

If the kingdom of God of the Orderer is that everything has been set and the precious part of the memory has been taken away, it is heaven for most people.

Then the kingdom of the Lord of Eden is hell.

It is up to the person to decide whether to take away or give up the memory.

It's okay to be insignificant, but when you're running out of cannon fodder, you have to start making choices.

And whether the memories you give up are precious or unimportant, the area brought by the road signs is only that large.

It doesn't say who is more important than whom, whose name contains a lot of memories, and road signs can mark more areas.

So this process, the more you go to the back, the more painful it is.

Because you have to divide those who love you, the people you love, into threes, sixes, nines, and so on.

Human feelings should not be quantified, but the Lord of Eden wants Tang Xian to do so.

Qin Qian, Gu Luo, Ye Feng.

On the 622nd, Tang Xian explored three areas in a row and filled in three names.

The anxiety on his face became more and more, one was worried about the safety of the human world and the world of beasts, and the other was worried about whether he could get out.

Getting closer and closer to the names of those core figures, Tang Xian thought about giving up more than once, he was afraid of losing the memories of these important people.

But when he looked back, he found that he had gone deep into the heart of the ruins.

On the road sign of the way, the original name has disappeared. The way back is gone.

Breaking into the holy land from outside the ruins will go through the same process as breaking into the ruins from the holy land, and Tang Xian is in the center at the moment.

This should be good news for him, it means that he has finally arrived at the very heart of the ruins.

But he couldn't be happier.

On the 660th day, Tang Xian wrote the name of Dong Dye.

It's like a memory battle royale. Those who can be left by Tang Xian to the end are the most cherished people.

But one by one, these people will disappear from his memory.

On the 661st, Tang Xian saw the scenery in his dream.

The night before he entered the eighth level of the fortress, he had a warning dream.

In the dream, his father Tang Wen took him to a land where illusion and reality are intertwined. It's like the human world, and it's like the world of all beasts.

In that dream, he saw a stone statue holding a baby in it.

He finally made it to the Lord of Eden's hideout, but at the cost of forgetting Josan Shan forever.

On the six hundred and sixty-third day, there was a dragon chant in the sky, and Tang Xian raised his head and could see a huge figure wandering in the clouds.

Occasionally, you can hear the cries of foxes.

But the voices were ethereal, and it was as if he had returned to that dream.

Tang Xian was a little excited, but when he saw the road sign, he was still sad.

This time, the name he wrote down was Tang Suoye.

The core area is very large, and there is not much time left for Tang Xian, or there is not much memory left.

Tang Xian saw many dark shadows, human shadows.

These shadows were moving, and they seemed to be able to make sounds, and for more than six hundred days, Tang Xian finally heard the noisy exchanges, but he couldn't hear them.

Shadow-like creatures, he had also seen them in that dream, at that time Tang Xian didn't know the meaning, and now he was sure that these were all living people, but they were swallowed by the consciousness of the Lord of Eden.

They become a state of neither life nor death.

Go a little deeper, and you'll be sure to find your goal.

Tang Xian thought so, and encountered another road sign, his hands trembling a little.

Akasi? Song Que? Meta Mist? Or someone else?

No matter which one it is, Tang Xian feels that it is difficult to write.
