Three days later.

Irin's trip to Iridai City is over, and he returns to the capital.

Originally, Irin's plan was to visit a few more cities and visit a few old friends.

But the experience in the illusion made Irin wonder if it was useful for him to do this.

Is his memory really right?

Was his rebirth really just an ordinary rebirth?

"Mengmeng's inference is wrong."

Irin was sure.

The only thing he knew for sure now was that he wasn't back in another timeline with the same trajectory.

Instead, he came to a world that was very different from what he knew.

Everything has changed.

Even, even the meaning of Ling Yiyi's existence has become a thorn in Yi Rin's heart.

Although he is not so fragile as to doubt life and the meaning of existence.

But the doubts in my heart need to calm down and clear up before we can move forward.

There were too many doubts in Irin's mind.

He felt like a hand was messing with everything.

The words of the "undead Zhao Yulong" in Huating City.

His parents were suddenly gone.

Ling Yiyi's non-existent "future".

The mutation of the Dawning Cult.

All of this seems to be telling Irin that something is wrong with this world.

Something is very wrong.

But Irin, he's living in this world right now.

What's next for him?

He is even doubting now that the trajectory of this world will be like the future in his memory, where four Knights of the Apocalypse will descend and bring disasters, and wherever they walk, they will be natural disasters.

If even the end will not come, then he will be reborn this time...... Why?

Irin had a headache.

There are so many things to think about, too much.

He felt like his brain was like a blocked latrine, and his thoughts couldn't get through.

"It's a mess."

Irin sighed helplessly.

He suddenly felt like the protagonist of the book, in a huge whirlpool without realizing it.

After Irin stepped out of the entrance of the net, he walked aimlessly through the streets of the capital.

The streets are bustling with people coming and going, and it is a peaceful scene.

The sun is warm, bringing a touch of warmth to the early winter, which is very comfortable.

Looking back, it was almost half a year since he became an apostle.

"It's almost 2122."

Irin felt that there was something strange about her emotions.

This kind of feeling of lamenting the passage of time is clearly only available to old men.

He hurriedly shook his head, clearing this sad and sad thought out of his mind.

Emperor Wang Tian was full of spirits, and the cold wind pasted on the dog's face, blowing the hair on the dog's face, but it made Wang Tiandi up and down, with his tail upright, revealing an awe-inspiring and inviolable arrogance. attracted sideways glances from passers-by.

I have to mention that although Emperor Wang Tiandi is a dog, among the dogs, his appearance is indeed okay.

Ben Wang is a cool dog with a very good appearance and a cold arrogance.

- Emperor Wang Tian thought happily.

It also sensed that something was wrong with Irin's mood, and from time to time pulled Rin's trouser leg with its dog paws as a sign of comfort.

Irin was a little confused.

What is this stupid dog doing when he has nothing to do with my hind legs?

While wandering around.

With nothing to do, Irin turned on his phone and browsed through the posts on the Capital City forum.

Zhao Yulong has already taken control from the national level.

Once a post related to Litai City appears, it will be deleted in an instant, banned, and permanently blocked, with one click and three times.

So Irin's on the forum doesn't see much abnormality.

But this incident has become an after-dinner conversation among ordinary people, and it is becoming more and more intense and difficult to contain.

After all, Zhao Yulong can control public opinion on the Internet, but he can't control the mouths of ordinary people.

Even if the keyboard warrior does not have a keyboard, he can continue to struggle in the circle of life.

It is said that Zhao Yulong also burned high incense at the headquarters of the special group.

In a traditional and superstitious way, I pray to God and worship Buddha every day, hoping that the heat of this matter will cool down quickly.

As for whether it will work out or not, God knows.

"Bone-"

A small seven-colored ball rolled to Irin's feet.

Ball?

Irin looked away from the screen of his phone.

He hadn't come to score yet, and he had not yet come to find out where the ball was coming from.

But Emperor Wang, who had been pulling Yi Rin's hind legs behind him, acted like the wind, swished out, and the dog's hair was blown to the back of his head, and in the blink of an eye, he snatched the ball on the ground and happily played with the ball.

"Ahh Nozomi's ball! Nozomi's ball! Give it back to Nozomi! Woooooooooooooooo ”

A milky Lori voice cried loudly.

Crying so loudly.

"Ahh

Irin looked up.

A little girl with pigtails on her head rushes at the dog, as if trying to save the ball from the dog's paws.

"Dogs! Points to note. ”

Irin reminded from afar.

In broad daylight, Yi Rin was not embarrassed to shout Emperor Wang's real name.

It's a shame.

"It's you, big brother!"

Nozomi was just about to snatch her baby ball from the dog's mouth when she heard Irin's voice, and she looked up, as if she had recognized Irin at this time.

"Well, it's quite fateful!"

Irin recognized the little girl as well.

I didn't expect to run into it in the capital.

Irin bent down, touched Nozomi's head, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" ”

Xiaoxi pursed her lips and seemed to be a little dissatisfied: "It's all to blame, if you have to say that you want to live in a big city, everyone Xiaoxi said that she doesn't want it or not." But Ma Ma actually carried Xiaoxi behind his back and secretly bought a few suites in this place, and he hated it to death. ”

Irin: "......"

If it weren't for your young age, I would have thought you were showing off your wealth! Child!

It's not good for you to be like this!

Irin actually wants to take the opportunity to educate children about their values.

But his mouth moved, and Irin was not in the mood, so he didn't speak.

Only then did Irin, who realized that he had inadvertently wandered around and came to the square, which was crowded with people from all over the world.

"Where's your mother?"

"I don't know, I was still there just now!"

Xiao Xi's eyes looked at the small leather ball that Wang Tiandi was having fun playing with from time to time, as if he was still planning how to snatch the ball back.

This feeling is familiar.

How do you feel that every time he and this Xiaoxi meet, she is in a state of "being lost".

Sure enough, people and human constitutions cannot be generalized.

Maybe it's talent.

Meeting is also fate.

Irin didn't have anything to do anyway, so he could only take Nozomi with him and sit down on a nearby bench.

He plans to wait and see for a while, and if he can't wait for Xiaoxi's mother to find someone after a while, Irin will only have to rely on the power of the official a little.

Since you have privileges, you don't have to use them in vain.

"Big brother, your words don't count!"

Xiao Xi suddenly crossed her waist and pointed at Irin in a milky voice, saying.

"Huh? What words don't count? ”

"You said before, when you return to Qingcheng, you will come to play with Xiaoxi, and you have to lift it high!"

As he spoke, Xiao Xi stretched out his hand and made a gesture of "raise high", indicating that he wanted to be very high.

Irin looked down in thought.

It seems that he did say yes casually at the time.

But he didn't expect that in the vast sea of people, he could really meet it!

It was so unexpected.

"Lift high, lift high!"

"Okay, okay!"

Irin effortlessly lifted Nozomi up, and Nozomi was lifted above her head by Irin, giggling and innocent.

When passers-by saw this scene, they all showed an aunt-like smile and whispered.

"Look, that man looks a little fierce, but I didn't expect to be so loving!"

"Nonsense, what kind of love is playing with your daughter? It's normal, okay! ”

"Huh? So young to have children? The young people of this generation, tsk tsk. ”

"What is this, I heard a while ago that my next-door neighbor just graduated from high school, 18 years old, he looks very handsome, and he is the father of three children in a blink of an eye!"

"Ah, this? Does the law not matter? ”

"What's the matter? You're thinking too much! His little fresh meat is married to a rich woman, buy one get three free! ”

"Ah, envy...... No, I'm jealous. ”

“……”

Listening to the conversation as passers-by passed, Irin felt a little embarrassed.

Why is he so fierce?

Irin was speechless.

After playing with Xiaoxi for a while, Irin's put Xiaoxi down.

"Big brother, is it okay to accompany Xiaoxi to read?"

Xiao Xi's cute little face was flushed with excitement.

Out of nowhere, she pulled out a delicate illustration, and it was actually a hardcover paper collector's edition.

The name is also interesting.

- "I'm obviously a weak chicken but I am regarded as a savior by the whole world, what should I do now that I am panicking?" 》

The title of the book is too long.

It took three lines to write the title in its entirety.

Irin's silence.

Xiao Xi tried to sit on the bench, and her two calves swayed up and down rhythmically.

She placed the illustration on her lap and flipped through the pages quickly.

"Big brother, you know what?"

"Xiao Xi likes to read the most."

Nozomi will flip to the middle, grinning.

"Xiaoxi can turn this book to the beginning, and you can turn to the middle, Xiaoxi sometimes, she likes to go straight to the end!"

"The protagonist of this book, whether it is the past, present, or future, Xiaoxi can see it clearly anytime and anywhere!"

"But sometimes, some books are not well written, and Xiao Xi is so angry that he tears them directly, but he is scolded by Ma Ma!"

After Xiao Xi finished speaking, she closed the book on her lap.

"This book is written in a mediocre way!"

After speaking, Xiao Xi's sparkling eyes looked towards Irin.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, where are you? Don't scare Mommy! Nozomi! Nozomi! ”

Right now.

A beautiful woman with a good figure with a flustered expression shouted in the crowd.

"Mama, I'm here, I'm here!"

Nozomi excitedly stood up on the bench and shouted vigorously in the direction where the voice came from.

A minute later.

The mother and daughter reunited, and the beautiful woman hugged Xiaoxi tightly, blaming herself for not paying attention, and constantly thanking the well-wisher Irin.

"Goodbye, big brother!"

Xiaoxi held the beautiful woman, and Emperor Wang Tiandi reluctantly returned the ball, squatting at Yi Rin's feet, sticking out his tongue, and playing with the ball was still unfinished.

Irin looked at the mother and daughter, and gradually drifted apart.

Suddenly.

Yi Rin raised his head with an indifferent expression, looked at Xiao Xi's back, and asked, "You, who are you?" ”

Nozomi turned around.

He stuck out his tongue at Irin and grimaced.

"My name is Xiao Xi! Big brother. ”

After speaking.

The mother and daughter soon disappeared into the crowd.

Irin sat on the empty bench, holding her chin with her hands and her face tense, thoughtful.

This posture and expression frightened passers-by to retreat, for fear of provoking some ruthless characters who should not be provoked.

"Nozomi?"

Irin muttered to herself, pondering over the name.

Irin didn't know how long she had been sitting on the bench.

It wasn't until the sky darkened and the neon lights lit up all around her that Irin came back from her deep thought.

Coo-goo-goo –

In his stomach, a hungry sound sounded.

Oh no.

Irin lowered his head.

The voice came from Emperor Wang's stomach.

Emperor Wang Tiandi raised the dog's head aggrievedly and looked at Yi Rin.

In this way, it seems to be silently protesting against Irin's dog abuse.

Irin chuckled.

The gloom in his eyes was swept away.

He smiled and touched Emperor Wang's dog's head: "Hungry? I've wronged you. ”

The corners of Emperor Wang's mouth curled, his hind legs were all the way, his front legs were bent, and he stood up in front of Yi Rin.

Emperor Wang Tian was even able to spiral to heaven with a flick of his tail, and this anthropomorphic standing action made Yi Rin feel unremarkable, boring, and unwavering.

But what did the dog do when he stood up?

Irin didn't have time to ask.

Emperor Wang patted his belly vigorously with his claws, pointed to his mouth again, and finally bent a big arc in front of him with his forearm very spiritually.

"You mean, if you want to eat enough, hold on to your belly like you are pregnant?"

Yi Rin said that he understood Emperor Wang's actions in seconds.

Although he didn't understand dog language, Emperor Wang Tiandi actually thought of this way of communication.

Emperor Wang: "......"

Who, who's going to get pregnant!

Ben Wang is male, male, male!

Irin's metaphor is a bit flawed.

But the overall meaning is probably correct.

The corners of Emperor Wang's mouth twitched, and he hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't correct Yi Rin's inappropriate metaphor, so he could only nod his head silently.

"Good! Let's go! ”

Yi Rin smiled and took Emperor Wang Tian to the restaurant.

One person and one dog, in the restaurant, the wind swept the building, and ate a full meal.

In order to avoid being noticeable, Irin's deliberately ordered a private room, the kind with a minimum cost.

After eating and drinking, Emperor Wang Tian quietly took a toothpick and picked his teeth, his expression was very happy.

Ah, that's life.

Yi Rin took Emperor Wang back to Molly's laboratory.

It was late at night, and the doorman stood dutifully at the door.

Irin is also a frequent visitor to the laboratory, and the doorman said a few words of greeting, and by the way, after asking Irin with concern if there were any sequelae left on the back of his head from the last fall, he put Irin in the laboratory.

When it comes to Molly's safety, Irin's is not worried.

He knew very well that this seemed to be an unguarded laboratory, only guarded by a middle-aged doorman, but there were many special group field personnel lurking around it as secret sentinels.

As long as it is not an apostle with special abilities, it is generally difficult to break through the surrounding dark sentinels.

As for the apostles...... Those who have a little insight will not provoke Molly.

After all, provoking Molly is equivalent to provoking the peculiar group.

The Anomalies are equivalent to the official management organization of the Apostles, and there are countless capable people, and it is not good to provoke them, and no one will be so stupid.

Irin didn't alarm anyone and quietly returned.

As a man and a dog tiptoe past Molly's dedicated lab, Irin's discovery is that there is a faint light shining through the crack in the door.

"She's staying up late again?"

Irin felt a little distressed inexplicably.

But Irin stood at the door and hesitated for a moment, but finally decided not to bother, and returned to his room with the dog.

"Welcome home, Irin."

"It's December 18, 2121, 22:30."

Irin walked into the room.

Accompanied by a soft and beautiful AI female voice, the lights of the whole house suddenly turned on.

In a trance, Irin had the illusion of returning to the home she once had.

Ahh

When did Molly back up the AI butler he was used to?

Are you embarrassed to say you didn't leave any evidence?

I didn't expect you to be so cute.

Irin laughed dumbly.

But after a few seconds, he smiled and had mixed feelings.

Returning to the place, Irin took a comfortable shower and turned on the TV for a while.

Late-night TV shows are boring, and they are not as exciting as late-night shows in Greentown.

As soon as Emperor Wang Tian saw that Yi Rin had turned on the TV, he slammed onto the sofa, squatted beside Yi Rin, and threw a "you know, you know" look at him.

"Okay, okay, the animal world, right? You're such a special dog. ”

Irin never imagined that he would have a day of grabbing TV with a dog.

remembered that Emperor Wang Tiandi had contributed a lot in Litai City, so he followed Emperor Wang's temperament and switched channels.

In the TV show, all kinds of animals without clothes, Irin is naturally not interested.

Emperor Wang Tian watched it with relish, and his expression gradually became perverted.

Irin changed into a comfortable position, dressed in a clean bathrobe, and sat on the sofa.

The bathrobe was warm and comfortable.

Yi Rin's attention was taken away from the TV show, and he took advantage of Molly's absence to summon Bai Xiaoyi and Nie Hongsleeve out to breathe.

This ordinary "summoning spirit" can also increase the proficiency of a little bit of spiritual weapons, which is better than nothing, and can be won in the accumulation of a lot.

"Wow! Master! ”

"I've seen officials."

After Bai Xiaoyi and Nie Hongsleeve, the two mother spirits, expressed their respect to Yi Rin in their own ways, Yi Rin let them move freely in the room while their spiritual energy was still sufficient, and he was alone, bowing his head and contemplating.

In the dead of night, it's best to think about things.

Although the room is a little lively, but get used to it, it's okay.

The two mother spirits have long been accustomed to Yi Rin's coldness, and Nie Hongsleeves rarely appears, gentle and elegant, floating in mid-air obediently, calmly draped in red veil...... Watch TV.

Bai Xiaoyi was restless, curiously pulling the dog hair on the top of Emperor Wang's head with her hand.

Ten minutes later.

After reading the whole thing a little, Irin opened the communication panel and asked for a voice call to one of the illuminated avatars.

Soon.

The voice is on.

Irin smiled, "You're pretty fast." ”

Xing Fei tried to make his tone appear calmer, and asked slowly: "Ahem, I don't know what care the big guy has for me in the middle of the night?" ”

I don't know why.

Yi Rin always felt that Xing Fei's tone of voice was a little nervous.

What's there to be nervous about?

Yi Rin didn't think much about it, and asked straight to the point: "I have some professional questions, I want to ask you." ”

"Professional?" Xing Fei was stunned: "Wait, how do you know that I studied law in reality?" Did you break the law? Ahh Are you breaking the law again? Ah no, you're going to get a lawyer? ”

Irin: "......"

Xing Fei paused for a moment, and then said, "Big man, didn't you say that old and dead don't get along?" You're secretly investigating my background in reality? Talking doesn't count, right? Wait, you're already near my house, ready to kill you, right? ”

What Yi Rin didn't know was that Xing Fei, who was talking to Yi Rin at home, was so frightened that he hurriedly stuck to the wall after making up everything in his head, looking at every corner of the house with a chill, for fear of exposing his chrysanthemum.

He estimated that he would never be able to forget in his life, and no one knew assassination better than Irin.

Xing Fei's overreaction made Yi Rin quite puzzled.

When did you say that old age and death don't get along?

Irin couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't scare yourself, I mean you have another major." ”

Xing Fei was stunned.

He reacted instantly, and his tone was slightly condensed: "Alchemy? ”

Irin quickly said what he meant: "I just wanted to ask if there is a formation in alchemy that can summon otherworldly creatures. ”

That's right.

As the so-called art industry has a specialization, the experience inside the bust Buddha statue has indeed touched Irin's blind spot.

He remembered that Xing Fei studied alchemy, and he should have a certain attainment. The formation in the belly of the bust Buddha statue, according to what Zhao Yulong said, is still working hard to excavate to see if it can be restored. Before Zhao Yulong came to a conclusion, Yi Rin planned to consult Xing Fei first to see if he had any unique insights.

After all, according to Irin's superficial understanding of alchemy, alchemy is also achieved through a medium similar to "formation" in order to exert its power.

Really.

As soon as Yi Rin mentioned this matter, Xing Fei's interest was instantly aroused.

"Otherworldly creatures? Please elaborate. ”

But before Irin could start speaking.

Xing Fei's tone changed, and he said in surprise: "Wait, otherworldly creatures? Guy, is it ...... what you want to ask? That monster in Iridai City? ”

"Oh? You actually know? ”

"The specific inside story is not clear, after all, the official has intervened to block the news, but this matter has also been circulated in some private channels, and it is quite mysterious. Listening to your reaction, it turns out that this incident turned out to be true. ”

Irin's sighed, "After you heard it, you should have never heard of it." Otherwise, even if I don't look for you, someone will come to you. ”

Xing Fei instantly wanted to cry: "Big guy, don't cheat me!" Is it too late for me to hang up the call? ”

"It's too late!" Yi Rin smiled slightly: "Don't be afraid, anyway, no one can eavesdrop on the phone calls between the apostles, so you can treat it as a secret." ”

"Okay." Xing Fei pretended to prevaricate for a while, and then readily agreed. In fact, Xing Fei was also very interested in this "monster incident" that spread in a few small circles. He didn't expect that Irin's knowledge of this would be the inside story.

Yi Rin omitted the cause and effect of the whole thing, and only told Xing Fei the key points of the hundreds of people kneeling down to offer sacrifices, prayers, formations, etc. in the half-length Buddha statue at that time.

Xing Fei didn't interject during the whole process, and was very quiet.

But the shock in my heart cannot be repeated.

If this kind of thing happens in a trial, no matter how weird it is, it won't seem strange.

But in the real world, it's a little scary.

It is unbelievable that hundreds of people actually followed this ancient ritual to commit suicide, and really summoned a monster that did not belong to this world.

After the shock.

Xing Fei thought for a long time.

He even interrupted the conversation to go through all sorts of weird books he had collected from the black market.

About half an hour later.

Xing Fei replied.

Irin waited until his eyes were sleepy, almost thinking that the kid was going to run away.

"Big guy, according to the formation that summoned monsters after the sacrifice you said, it is not so much alchemy as it is a kind of black magic that has been lost."

"Black magic?"

"It's some kind of mystical ritual that was popular on the continent of Europe in the Middle Ages, because it is too old to be lost, and there is no way to study it."

"Elaborate."
