Chapter 522: Regaining Faith and Going to Danger Again
The fog dissipated a lot, but the darkness that enveloped the town deepened.
Xu Changqing knew that this was not only because he had lost too many other types of self-consciousness incarnations before him, but also because too many negative emotions had led to the overall expansion of hostile forces, but also because his life had entered the final countdown, and in reality he was getting weaker and weaker and about to die, so the help for consciousness awakening was getting smaller and smaller.
The street lights seem to be due to insufficient voltage, but they appear to be weak when they are lit, and the places that can be illuminated are very limited.
There were no pedestrians on the road, and the whole town seemed to be dead, quiet.
The deep darkness gave his foes an advantage, and where the light could barely reach, the air could be faintly seen rippling with microwaves, and countless tentacles wriggling there, like loaches in a muddy puddle, occasionally lit up with a greasy sheen in the light.
He didn't like tentacles, and he instinctively knew that the bones and muscles that were entangled in this kind of thing were broken, and then turned into a packet of thick juice and sucked up, was a very terrible way to die.
He knew why there were such monsters, and so many more.
"If this is resentment, then what kind of big event is the real me involved in, why has so many thoughts gathered, trying to pull me into the abyss?"
"Anyway, rushing at so many dark enemies also proves that I am not an ordinary person, I should be a very powerful person and very powerful, my knowledge, my ability, must be an extremely powerful weapon!"
Xu Changqing once again had the idea of looking for weapons.
As a result of gaining a part of his memory, his cognition has changed from being purely rational to emotional. This sensibility made him more familiar with the streets of the big town.
He decided to follow his feelings, no matter where he eventually arrived. If he didn't get anything this time, then he would have to search the town in a stupid way, the woman didn't say the address clearly, and even if he did, it would be difficult for him to find it quickly in the current situation.
The time is already 1:06, and there is not much time left for him, and the more he delays, the more unfavorable the general environment will be for him.
Xu Changqing trotted forward, like an Olympic torch bearer.
The streets here gave him a familiar feeling, and he thought about important places in his heart, and then he followed the feeling.
In about twenty minutes, he ran four streets before finally stopping in front of a church.
"I'm religious?"
Xu Changqing was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, the church can also represent the place of faith, not necessarily what God you believe in.
Looking at this church again, although it is not large, it is magnificent, and you will naturally feel solemn and solemn when you see it.
Neither the damp mist nor the heavy darkness of the night could prevent it from displaying its solemnity and majesty, as if it were glowing with transparent light, so that it could still be seen clearly in such a dimly lit environment.
Xu Changqing strode forward and pushed the door in.
The deep hall inside the door is not complicated in structure, the east and west walls have pointed windows, and the glass glows with a soft blue-white light, illuminating the entire hall.
The hall does not have a large number of chairs for people to sit on, but more like a monumental hall, filled with a large number of human sculptures.
These sculptures, which are three times larger than normal people, are different in shape and lifelike, and behind them, there is a background banner, hanging like a curtain, with unclear symbols on it, it seems to be an article, but unfortunately Xu Changqing can't understand it.
And in the deepest part of the front, on top of the nine steps, there is a huge golden altar, the shape of this altar is like a huge tripod, the sample is clumsy, there is no cover, and above the tripod, is the constantly evolving Hanhai Universe Star Sea.
As for the existence of this thing, Xu Changqing understood.
He did have faith, not a god, but a concept of exploration and knowledge, and the statues on the east and west sides against the wall, between the windows and windows, I am afraid that they are related great achievements.
With this thought, he immediately felt very comfortable, as if he knew what kind of person he was.
He was worried that he was a villain who did all kinds of evil, which led to so much resentment.
Now he understood that those were the obstacles he had encountered in his quest. They must have died for a reason, not because he killed innocents indiscriminately.
"Faith, knowledge, these two forces are all here. Very good! ”
Xu Changqing stepped forward, looked at the sea of stars in the universe, and there was a light in his arms, and then turned around and beckoned to the various sculptures, and there were glowing people who flew towards him with flags and threw themselves into his body.
Every time there is a light and shadow to cast, there will be some changes in him, and then it will disappear.
In the end, he jumped into the air, turned into a ball of light, and when he landed again, he was already in a spacesuit.
If you look closely, you will find that this spacesuit is extremely similar to the latest generation of mecha suit he wore before his death, or the Jindan magic suit.
Different from the Jindan magic robe of the immortal system, his set of magic clothes is realized through scientific and technological means, so it is more sci-fi, the helmet is like the mask of the Marvel Universe Star-Lord, and the idea will be covered like a helmet when he moves, or harvest the neck ring.
And the simple torch in his hand has also become a staff spear, which has a hideous three-edged spearhead, and the spear blade is like a combination of three sharp knives with a sharp edge, forming three U-shaped blood grooves.
At the base of the spearhead, there is a hollow shape made of spiral rattan, with a huge gemstone stuck inside, shining brightly.
The handle of the staff below is like a spiral of seven thin vines, and the vines have fine scales. This handle looks like wood, but it has a strange sense of density and heaviness.
Coming out of the church, Xu Changqing, who had changed shotguns, jumped and marched, and every time he jumped, he was flying a short distance, and he could go from this intersection to that intersection at one time.
If he hadn't deliberately pressed the speed, he wouldn't have even had the opportunity to look at the buildings on both sides of the street.
With such a convenient and labor-saving way of traveling, he quickly combed through the town.
This process can also be understood as the process of retrieving memories.
As he retrieved his memories, the fog thinner and thinner, until it was almost completely replaced by night.
The time entered 2:20, and the light of the street lamp, only the filament glowed red, giving people a feeling of hanging.
And the darkness has reached the level of thick as ink, if it weren't for the light source of his armor, which can illuminate the surrounding area, and the gem of the staff spear is even more incandescent light, then he has been engulfed in darkness at this moment.
He was now somewhat glad that he had found the church quickly and was armed, otherwise he would have struggled at the moment with that improvised torch.
And even now, he was only barely able to see the building signs, if any, on both sides of the road at a decent height.
And those tentacles as thick as pythons have bloomed everywhere like weeds, breaking through the space one by one, twisting and waving.
He had also attacked them with weapons, and soon found that there was no point, there were too many to kill.
There was already a smell of old decay in the air, and all the buildings were already showing signs of wear and tear.
This is a sign of a further reduction in vitality and imminent death.
He wondered if he had been losing blood in reality, which worried him.
Fortunately, he is now a rational master, so the more times like this, the more he knows that the more impatient he is, and hitting the target at the first time is the best way to save time.
He searched the big towns, one to see if he could find a place that he was particularly familiar with, and the other was to look for institutions such as police stations, government offices, fire stations, libraries, etc.
Only such institutions have the best chance of finding the map.
He needed a map now, with places to go, east, west, north, south, and he could only search two areas at most, and it would be difficult for him to choose without a map.
However, this time he was unlucky, and when he searched the last area, he found such facilities, which were very dense on a single street.
The map was quickly found, and there were even guns and weapons, but he didn't need those right now.
After consulting the map, he zeroed on to the north as his first target.
There was a dirt hill over there, with dense vegetation, but the road was not bad, and the name of this mountain was familiar, as if he was constantly moving there.
And combined with the location of his home, it is not far from this mountain.
He can even imagine his childhood with a few old friends playing in the woods over there.
Hunting houses, tree sheds, although boys like to destroy, but sometimes they also like to imitate adults to engage in specious buildings, as their own secret stronghold.
And these, when they become adults, will become a place full of memories, and they may be picked up and introduced to their girlfriends like treasures, and this girlfriend may become a wife......
Xu Changqing felt that this inference was logical, but the actual situation was obviously quite different from what he thought.
When he entered the mountain forest, he relied on his sense to walk to what should be a secret lair, but what he saw was an incomparably large spaceship.
At least half of it is buried in the mountain, and the exposed part is quite old and weather-beaten. One of its propellers has an inner diameter equivalent to a tunnel, the kind that can run a subway.
The stronghold turned out to be a spaceship that had crashed here for an unknown number of years.
It's really kind of a little cool.
The ship's familiarity suggests that he has been here more than once.
But after a simple calculation, he came to the conclusion that if he wanted to go inside to search, he would probably have to spend an hour and a half.
After some struggle, he finally chose to search.
The interior of the ship was indeed very complicated, and even if he found some of the schematic diagrams, he was still dizzy.
Also, there's a monster here.
It was something like a mixture of a dog and an octopus, often popping up from a corner or in the dark, its head opening like petals, revealing a breath made of tentacles like a mass of knife teeth, like a pile of maces.
These numerous and fearless things greatly slowed down his search.
It was only around 3:50 a.m. that he found a room that felt unusually familiar to him.
Squeak...... With a gut-wrenching voice, he pushed open the heavy hatch.
What appeared in front of him was a strange scene.
Although this room was the first time he had seen it tonight, and he didn't have any relevant memories of it, he just knew that this was the master bedroom on the left hand side of the first and second floors of his house.
He didn't know why the master bedroom was here again, organically blending in with the ship. But the situation made him extra vigilant and nervous.
As early as the beginning of his exploration, he wore a mask to prevent inhaling problematic air.
Now, after taking a few deep breaths, he's officially stepping inside.
Boom!
The hatch was closed, and soon even the outline of the door was gone, and only a wall remained.
Xu Changqing realized that he had entered a special place, a place where it was mandatory and could only move forward.
The furnishings in this bedroom are very drab, with only a double bed and a large standing clock.
The pendulum oscillates inside, but there is only one hand in the dial, and there is only one scale, which is at 12 o'clock, while the hand is ruby and self-luminescent.
Click! Click! The click of the pendulum makes the hands jump, but each time the amplitude is small.
Xu Changqing made a rough calculation, if this was a warning device, then he would have about five minutes.
There was no door in the room anymore, and he kicked the big bed open.
He now has armor on his body, and his strength is extraordinary.
However, there is no cat under the big bed.
He squeezed open the bell again, and this time the narrow door appeared.
Pushing open the door, I was greeted by a hallway.
He was familiar with this corridor, which was the corridor on the east side of the second floor of his house, and the innermost door was the room where the little girl lived.
It stands to reason that he had been to that room, and he should have paid attention to the other rooms.
But he pondered for a moment, and strode toward the room.
He has realized that the meaning of the existence here probably means that some secrets in his heart cannot be destroyed and evaded, and any tricks are useless and must be faced!
