"What are you talking about?" Du Youlan asked.

I shook my head, "Nothing, guess ......"

Ayimu may be the twenty-one king worm that seems to have died. And if she is really a king worm, she can smell a little bit of insect poison on my body, but I have never been able to detect her insect poison, which can only mean that in the level of king insects, she is already superior to me, or rather, superior to all other king insects.

Including Mina.

Du Youlan and I fled very quickly, but at such a speed, it still seemed that we couldn't shake off the pursuers behind us.

"It's hot, that guy is approaching," Du Youlan began to notice the change in the temperature around her, but there was good news, "but compared to before, I feel that I am in better shape, and I should be closer to the core of that increase." ”

"Will this energy increase be able to restore more of your strength?" I asked.

"Theoretically, many spells that were not used before can be tried now. But don't expect me to deal with that guy. She was referring to Ayimu.

"I know, I'm talking about running away. Can it be done? Walk away. ”

Du Youlan looked at the burden in my hand, "Do you need to take these things out?" What is that? ”

"Some of the core of the mechanism, as well as the hexagram plate that controls the mechanism, because of the corpse puppet and the puppet that I worked with you before, I have some new ideas, if successful, I can create more powerful mechanisms."

"Heh, sure enough, he's a genius like him."

"Wei Heng? Speaking of him...... "I told Du Youlan about the appearance of the dried corpse and the previous tricks.

"It turned out to be him. Wei Heng did learn the trick from me in the past, but I don't know how far he can go, at that time, he was just learning to play. Du Youlan thought for a while, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "However, when you said that you retreated, I also thought of a way." ”

Then, he stretched out his hand to me, "Give me these things for a while." ”

Although she hasn't said what the exact solution is, I can always trust Du Youlan unconditionally.

And the next thing, we continued to run for our lives.

The labyrinth-like structure, in the case of Du Youlan's induced energy increase, quickly found the final way out. Only here again appeared a mechanical door, a round door, the whole door was split into twenty-seven pieces, each piece carved with lines of unknown meaning, floating in the round frame, spliced into an overall circle.

And this mechanism did not appear in the memory of Huang Quan.

Du Youlan walked straight to the door, stopped about half a meter away from the door, raised her hand, and gradually approached the door, but did not really touch the door, "It's behind here, it feels very powerful." ”

"I know, I feel it, but ...... the door in front of me makes me very entangled.

Although I have a lot of information about the mechanism in my head, I don't know anything about this door, and I have no clue how to open it.

But that's not the point.

In addition to this unseen mechanism, my heart, my body's heart, is aching......

And at this moment, the road we came from suddenly burst into flames!

There was the sound of a fight in the distance, and it seemed that Ayimu's footsteps had been stopped again.

"Dry corpse? It seems that he is catching up again. "I breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

"Although it is only Wei Heng's corpse, his ability is still very good. It should be able to resist for at least half an hour. In the meantime, you crack the door as soon as possible. "Du Youlan is full of hope for the dry corpse and me.

But I ......

"What's wrong?" She seemed to see through my hesitation, and before I could respond, she continued, "It's not like you. Obviously, according to the content of Huangquan's memory, he upgraded the puppet himself, and also collected such a large number of mechanism cores. How did your ideas and self-confidence stop here? Just because this place is completely lost in the memory of Huangquan? I know Zoraku, it seems that he shouldn't be so unconfident. ”

I nodded, and smiled helplessly, "It really shouldn't." If that hadn't happened, I would have started experimenting. ”

"What's the matter?" She asked.

I clutched my chest, "It's beating, Golden Heart, but do you know what the problem is?" This beating is not a threat to my life, but the people around me...... I don't know why it jumps like this, or what happens if the door is misoperated. ”

"Who are the people around you? Me or Yao Qianwen, don't worry, we can't die. ”

"And the ...... of the Silent Night"

But if she doesn't do anything, her ending will not be changed. That girl was destined to be a tragedy from birth. But it's not you who is the promoter. And you, the only one who can save her. Aren't you believing in yourself? If it's yours, there's nothing wrong with that. ”

Compared with my trust in her, in fact, Du Youlan is the same for me.

I finally mustered up the courage to touch my hand to the shattered piece of door.

And the sound of battle in the distance continued, and it became more violent.

"You've got about twenty minutes left."

"Hmm......" I moved one of the pieces.

All the surrounding door pieces suddenly changed color, red and yellow, the red, like the plasma gushing out of a human flesh wound! Stimulates my vision! Yellow, on the other hand, looks relatively stable.

"Why two colors?"

I tried to move the yellow, and the red and yellow touched for a moment, and the yellow engulfed the red.

Occasionally, however, red eats yellow.

There seems to be some kind of pattern in that.

But what makes me uneasy is that no matter whether it is red or yellow, every touch will affect the beating of the golden heart of my body in the distance.

Every time it beats, my heart hurts.

It was in this state of fear and confusion that I finally took full control of the law of devouring, and finally the yellow completely surrounded the red. There was a sound of gears moving inside the door, and the door gradually opened. Trade Winds Literature Network

I heard a faint voice coming from inside.

"Brother...... Brother? ”

It's the sound of a silent night!

My already hanging heartbeat, this moment is faster!

"Yes, it's me! Don't be afraid of the quiet night, I'll go in soon, and I'll take you home today. I promised you that I would let you live the life you like and be happy all the time......"

"Brother, I, I haven't eaten in a long time......"

"Don't worry, my brother has enough meat."

"But...... But why does it hurt a little......"

"It hurts?"

I wondered, the door opened with more and more floating.

"It hurts, brother!"

The sound of the silent night also became painful.

The golden heart is beating wildly, and it has reached the level of beating wildly! I was completely aware that something was wrong, and while I didn't know exactly what was going to happen, whatever it was, it was definitely not what I wanted to see!

I grabbed the gradually distracting door piece with both hands, trying to stop it, or pause it.

But at the same time, through the cracks, I saw the silent night. At this moment, her body was suspended in mid-air, thin to the point of skinny and bone, like a skeleton. She stared at me with big eyes, as if she saw me through the gap.

A smile of delight gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth.

But the smile froze again, and she tried to control it so that no painful expression appeared on her face, but the intense pain made her uncontrollable.

Her body, as the door piece splits, gradually splits......

"No, no...... How so?! No, I should have known in the first place, why open this door...... Stop it! Mina! Stop it!! ”

I'm screaming heartbreakingly, but the mechanism won't stop at any of my roars.

Right before my eyes, in the process of this door gradually opening, the silent night, was torn apart.

Her body, her voice, was gone forever.

Suspended in mid-air, only half of the beating heart remained.

Yes, it's half a heart, and there is only this half heart in the quiet night.

"I ...... The door was opened, but the silent night was ruined. "I stood in the doorway, and suddenly I felt like I had lost a part of my soul forever.

I do have a vague sense of the value of Silent Night, and I do want to use her all along.

But I never thought of using her at the cost of killing her.

Why things ended up like this.

At that moment, her value seemed to me to mean no more.

All I know is that Silent Night is dead, I have lost, and it is completely irretrievable.

"The original amplification thing is the heart of the silent night." Du Youlan walked in.

"Also...... Is there a salvation? ”

I asked a ridiculous question.

"No help. The insect is not a snake, and if the snake man leaves his eyes, his life is not lost. But the worm is only left with a heart, and even if it is still beating, the still night will never return. ”

She spoke the harsh reality.

"But this heart, you should take it. That's what Mina values. Du Youlan reminded me.

"Really, something she cares about...... Mina. ”

I took a deep breath and walked towards the heart, the memories that kept recalling me and Mina, and the memories of the silent night.

The two gradually coincide.

Then shattered into nothingness.

The last bit of emotion that can be called love left in my heart is completely dyed into a dark color.

I stretched out my hand to take away the last "silent night", but before I could touch it, a sharp blade suddenly fell from the sky! At my weakest moment, cut off my raised arm neatly! Then, a familiar figure landed in front of me and "Silent Night".

The figure took back the flying knife mechanism with a silent night face, and showed me a sweet smile like a silent night, "Brother, it seems that you are really not well-behaved, I was actually killed by you?" Ha...... Hahaha...... Hahahahahaha!!ha ”

She laughed maniacally, leaning back and forth.

"You know, if you are obedient, you will wait for me quietly after sending the eggs, and you will not be self-righteous and want to destroy my Sky City. Then, I will definitely return it to you in its entirety during the quiet night. It's a pity, why are you always so confident, why are you always so nosy? Obviously, your mission is all over, and you can return to the old days, but you actually seek death by yourself, as you can see, I didn't kill her, you killed her. You killed! ”

The sound of the silent night, Mina's tone.

It's a puppet, a puppet controlled by Mina in the Silent Night.
