Chapter Forty-Eight: Die
Three hours ago.
"How about we make a deal?"
"What deal?" Alice asked rhetorically.
Zhou Ziming clapped his hands, a few sounds, the shining spotlight projected the round white light on the labyrinth below, the labyrinth is composed of mirrors, reflecting the dazzling light under the illumination of the light, the whole labyrinth is very large, looking down condescendingly, it is like a large square.
"I want you to do a duel with someone here, and of course, your end is already set."
"Dead, huh?"
Before Zhou Ziming could finish speaking, Alice interrupted him, as if she had expected it a long time ago, and a trace of helplessness flashed in Alice's beautiful eyes.
"Yes, smart, if you don't want to......"
"So Sauron is dead, isn't he?" Alice replied, the same reason, had threatened her countless times, but she had no choice but to obey this demon, her own life was in the hands of the other party, if obedience could be exchanged for her brother's life, then she was willing.
Zhou Ziming looked at Alice's confused face, sighed, took out a stack of photos from the pocket of his windbreaker, and handed them to the other party, each photo was a photo of a boy and a girl.
"Don't worry, someone will protect him in your place."
Alice reached out and slowly stroked the face of the boy in the photo, her brows furrowed in pain. The boy in the photo has a warm smile, looking at the slightly taller girl next to him with admiration and longing, and the girl touches his head and laughs and rubs the boy's hair.
She had enjoyed the same look before, but now there was less fear and distance in Sauron's eyes in the photo.
"Another me?" Alice smiled wryly.
Zhou Ziming nodded: "Yes, another you, it seems that she is more suitable to be a good sister than you." ”
"It seems...... That's really the case. ”
"Yes, I want you to disguise yourself as her and die, it's as simple as that."
"Let me die in her place? In this way, she can become the real me, and the Tours family in the other world will be inherited by her, and the balance of war will completely tip in your favor, which is really a good means, but why not just kill me? ”
Alice sneered, her narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Zhou Ziming with disdain, as if she was quite disdainful of this method.
But what Alice didn't know was that her guesses were all wrong.
Alice, who doesn't even understand the laws of time and space, naturally can't get the right result, can't look at the overall situation, and standing in a narrow space, it is absolutely impossible to find out the truth. This has nothing to do with command, it's just that it just so happens that Zhou Ziming knows more, and Alice knows less.
Zhou Ziming didn't pay attention to Alice's misunderstanding at all, for him, the explanation was superfluous, he only needed the other party to complete his plan, as for what kind of person he was treated with, disgusted or admired, he didn't care at all.
"It doesn't matter if you think so, I've already won, and now your decision is just icing on the cake at best.
How? To act or not to act? Zhou Ziming looked at the other party expressionlessly, silently waiting for the other party's answer.
Now, for Alice, it's probably okay to die herself.
Because by Sauron's side, there is already a better sister.
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you, let's say, what should I do!" Alice's face was resolute, and her eyes returned to calm.
"It's very simple, you just have to perform as best you can, and at the end you just say the line as I say." Zhou Ziming smiled.
Now, the last piece has been arranged, and the layout has been completed, just waiting for the protagonist to appear......
Zhou Ziming slowly opened his eyes, the incident three hours ago was probably the last thing worth remembering in his life, in just a few hours, he walked his life all over again, like watching a movie.
Even Zhou Ziming himself feels funny, his life is like a Hollywood blockbuster, the plot is full of twists and turns, the plot is bizarre and complex and intriguing, you will find it interesting when you watch it, but if you think about it afterwards, you will find that the protagonist is not doing anything at all.
Deceived by the people around you, deceived by others, deceived by your future self, deceived by your past self.
If his life is made into a movie, he will definitely name the movie self-deception, the ups and downs from beginning to end turn out to be self-directed and self-acting, there is never a real enemy, the real enemy is himself.
Zhou Ziming sighed with emotion and wanted to say a few words to Echo beside him, but suddenly recalled that in order to ensure the "Schrödinger's theorem", he blocked part of Echo's memory data, and the current Echo probably couldn't understand his thoughts.
In an instant, Zhou Ziming lost interest in speaking, he sat on the chair bored, waiting for Su Ming to break in and kill himself after killing Alice, who won the world.
Before the contemporary Su Ming came in, Su Ming came back first after completing the task.
"Xiao Tianyu, are you back?" Zhou Ziming looked at Su Ming with a smile, and there was a hint of ridicule when he called his name.
Su Ming saw Alice standing next to Zhou Ziming at first sight, and he immediately recognized that this was the person he had always wanted to protect, and now it was close at hand, but he couldn't show any disobedience, just nodded and stood quietly beside Zhou Ziming.
Finally, Su Ming in the mirror maze killed another Alice, he lost his fighting spirit, and sat in the middle of the maze with the corpse in his arms.
After that, Su Ming saw the exact same scene as at the beginning, Zhou Ziming mocked Su Ming, insulted the "dead" Alice, and angered the other party. Even the lines are not much different from Su Ming's memory, and history repeats itself again.
The familiar scenes reappeared in front of him, Su Ming was full of emotion in his heart, he secretly looked at Alice in the distance, and wondered what the other party thought.
Witnessing Su Ming's pain for "dying" himself, I don't know what Alice thinks in her heart.
Will you be impressed?
Will you be worried?
Or does it not matter at all?
From Alice's cold face, Su Ming couldn't see through the other party.
In the end, of course, Zhou Ziming successfully ignited the fighting spirit of contemporary Su Ming.
In a few minutes, Su Ming will come in, and after that, there will be nothing to do with him, Su Ming thought to himself.
Su Ming stood beside Zhou Ziming, although he didn't know much about the other party's physical condition, he could still roughly feel the changes in his body.
Su Ming felt that he should be dying.
"Okay, now you're satisfied, right?" Zhou Ziming looked at Su Ming and suddenly spoke.
Su Ming nodded, and then replied, "Thank you." ”
"Why thank me?" Zhou Ziming asked rhetorically.
Su Ming didn't answer, because Alice was by his side, and he couldn't destroy the situation that he had created with great difficulty.
Looking at Su Ming, Zhou Ziming sneered, took out a small box from his pocket, and threw it to Su Ming.
"I'll use it later." Zhou Ziming raised his eyebrows and reminded: "Now, you can leave." ”
Su Ming took the iron box, turned around and opened the door behind him, and walked out.
After Su Ming left, Zhou Ziming refocused his gaze on another door in front of him, and in that door, his last enemy would appear.
"In the end, you went my way."
An abrupt voice sounded, Zhou Ziming looked up, and another person who was exactly like him was floating in the air, looking at him with a smile, and there was a hint of mockery in his narrow eyes, as if he had not changed anything in the end after laughing at him for dominating his body.
"I'm just for Echo." Zhou Ziming thought in his heart, he knew that what he thought in his heart could also be heard by the other party, after all, he used to be such an illusion, but now his status is reversed and he has taken possession of this body, the original Zhou Ziming has become a second personality, and the original second personality has gained control of the body.
"But you did what I was meant to do." The illusion said.
"Really? But that's what Echo wants me to do, and I'm okay with that. ”
"In that case, you should know that Echo doesn't like you like this. She liked me more than she used to be, so ...... Can you give me back your body? ”
Zhou Ziming was stunned when he heard this, smiled bitterly, and nodded.
It doesn't matter, as long as the little guy is happy, anyway.
With a long sigh, Zhou Ziming slowly closed his eyes.
When he opened it again, his temperament had been completely renewed.
What an interesting experience, Zhou Ziming thought silently. He moved his fingers, feeling the control of his body, without the slightest feeling of rustiness, remembering everything the other personality had done before, as if it were his own, but he couldn't remember how he felt after doing it.
If you want to rank a thrilling list among Zhou Ziming in the past dynasties, he can definitely rank in the top three.
Being robbed of the body by a sub-personality is probably the first case in so many reincarnations.
Now he really wants to record this example in the chip data, but unfortunately now the box has been taken away by Su Ming, so it is impossible.
"It's thrilling, but it's all on the right track, which is a blessing." Zhou Ziming muttered to himself with palpitations, and touched Ai Ke's head beside him as he spoke: "I'm sorry for you, little Ai Ke, otherwise maybe the cycle will be interrupted by me." ”
Ai Ke glanced at the other party for some reason, although he didn't understand the meaning of the words, but seeing that look, Ai Ke felt a lot more relieved.
Zhou Ziming thought for a while, took out the chip from his pocket and handed it to Ike, and said mysteriously in the other party's ear: "Ike, I have done something in your memory, and after doing the things I explained, you import these data, so that your memory can be completed." ”
Alice looked at Zhou Ziming, who was behaving strangely, and frowned.
But from her standpoint, she is naturally not qualified to ask anything.
Bang!
There was a loud bang ahead.
The door in front of him opened, and Su Ming walked out of it.
He raised his eyes and looked around, and when he saw Zhou Ziming, his extinguished pupils lit up again.
"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Zhou Ziming stood up from his chair.
"It's amazing, this is the place I chose for you, isn't it very similar to the main city of the toy box, do you feel very nostalgic?
But don't worry, these are not fake, the use of simple levitation, and the principle of the empty castle of course, gravity has not changed, this should be felt, these weapons in the air you can use at will, and the only rule of the game is not to hurt the little Echo next to me, the little Echo is my very important partner. ”
Zhou Ziming said happily, as if this was a simple game.
Su Ming looked at the other party coldly, and a cold voice came out of his mouth: "I have always been treated as a plaything by you, why should I abide by the rules of the game you made?" ”
"It's a pity, you'll have to listen to me this time, I've placed a linkage device on little Echo, and as long as their hearts stop beating, then Sauron on the other side will turn into a puddle of minced meat." Zhou Ziming smiled.
Su Ming's expression changed suddenly when he heard this, he hesitated again and again, and finally nodded.
Seeing Su Ming's agreement, Zhou Ziming turned to look at Alice and said, "Alice, you can leave, you are my fiancée, how can I hurt you." As he spoke, he also threatened the other party with his eyes.
His heart was beating in his chest, even if he was very sure, Zhou Ziming was still afraid of an unexpected change at the last moment, and he could no longer pay the price of starting over, this time, it was the last time.
Fortunately, Alice obediently turned around, walked to the door, opened the door and walked out.
When she finally entered the door, she glanced at Su Ming worriedly.
And Su Ming stood in the distance, looking at all this coldly, his eyes looking at Alice were cold and indifferent, without a trace of temperature, he was completely looking at a stranger.
He completely thinks of the Alice in front of him as Alice from another world, and in his heart, the real Alice is dead.
Bang!
With the sound of the door closing, only Zhou Ziming, Su Ming and Aike were left in the empty space.
Great, it went well, the only thing to do now is how to die realistically. Zhou Ziming thought to himself in his heart, secretly adjusted the functions of his body, and he was ready to fight.
Raising his head and looking at Su Ming, Zhou Ziming's eyes also turned cold, he completely substituted for the role he needed to perform at this moment.
Ruthless, ruthless, crazy, and vicious, these are all things that the name Zhou Ziming should bear.
And now, he will play this role perfectly!!
"Are you ready?"
He smiled playfully and sarcastically.
With a casual move, the electric light flashed in his palm, and the arc on a katana floating in the air in the distance jumped a few times, and then the katana spun and flew towards Zhou Ziming as if it was attracted by a magnet.
Turning to look at Su Ming, a hideous smile engraved on the corner of his mouth.
"Come on! Let's have this final battle! ”
Before he could finish speaking, the soles of his feet slammed on the ground, and the blue-white arcs on his feet were beating, and in an instant, his body shot straight at him like a cannonball.
In the process of moving, he accelerated twice, and his figure blurred and accelerated again.
In the final battle, you don't have to worry about the damage of the power of the ability to yourself! This time, Zhou Ziming liberated all the hole cards and showed his extreme strength!
"Die!!" Both shouted at the same time.
Zhou Ziming, you must die!
Su Ming! Kill me!
Diametrically opposed destinies, different paths......
