Zhang Xiao wasn't sure what he was looking for, but he knew that if he could find something, it would be at the top of this half-ruined building. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was the closest to the place where he came, and it was also the wreckage left behind by the attack of the most powerful creature in this consciousness space, and if there was anything left, it would definitely be there.

It's just that Zhang Xiao didn't expect to find such a thing......

……

The shadow in his heart became heavier and heavier, and Zhang Xiao seemed to exhaust his mental strength with every step he took, but he still walked up step by step, towards the end of this dim place.

The stairs are not endless after all, and Zhang Xiao finally saw the light after walking four or five more floors.

It's not really a light to say, it doesn't feel like it's bright, it's just a little brighter than the stairwell.

Zhang Xiao did not hesitate and walked up the last staircase.

Not surprisingly, the first thing I saw was the dilapidated floor, and there were few intact rooms, the disappeared upper floor, the abruptly stopped staircase, and the handrails seemed to be torn by a huge force, and the whole twisted upwards and pierced into the sky, which looked very weird and terrifying.

However, this scene did not surprise Zhang Xiao, when he saw this building outside, he already knew that this thing was not cut off, and the uneven fractures combined with the news he heard, it was obvious that this building was bitten off by a giant snake that covered the sky.

What we see now confirms this.

In addition to the environment, what is more disturbing here is the color of the light, the so-called light does not bring light, it only makes the darkness more striking, and you can see the details of some things, but this is not reassuring.

Because...... When you look up, you can see the huge body of the giant serpent that covers the sky getting closer and closer, and in the shadows, you can clearly see the scales that are larger than the grinding plate, the dark shadows hidden in every crevice, which are full of evil and terrifying smell.

"Damn, it feels bigger and more disgusting here!"

Before Zhang Xiao's words fell, the raised foot suddenly stopped, and the whole person was suddenly stunned.

As if vision could enhance the oppressive force of the monster, Zhang Xiao felt that he couldn't breathe, his heart couldn't beat, and his body couldn't move just by looking at it, but in fact he didn't need to breathe and heartbeat, it was just a natural illusion of habit.

The only thing that made him unable to move was himself, and his spiritual power was completely suppressed by the presence of the giant snake, just like a mortal meeting a dragon, he was intimidated by the dragon, and some more mysterious spirit oppressed...... Or is it, the soul?

Zhang Xiao didn't know that the giant snake didn't look at him, all this was like his own imagination.

Maybe it was a moment, maybe it was a long time, Zhang Xiao was not sure of the time, and when the cold wind woke him up, he came back to his senses and found that nothing had changed.

"Hoo ......"

Zhang Xiao retracted his feet and looked behind him, he almost fell downstairs without stabilizing his body.

Lowering his head and no longer looking at the shadows in the sky, he did not look back and went downstairs, but walked out of the stairwell and carefully observed the surrounding rooms along the corridor, looking for something out of the ordinary.

He's not going to just give up.

This is different from the hall on the first floor downstairs, it is no longer a memory scene in Zhang Xiao's mind, but a "normal" dilapidated building.

Obviously, this is not the same as the place where he first came, all the rooms here are not cramped, although few are still intact, but the original size of the room can still be seen in general.

He didn't think it was strange, the room was full of deep emotional imprints when he came, and just looking at it made people feel that there were all kinds of painful memories hidden in it, which must be the memories of Jiro Hayata's past, so it was enough to communicate one or two layers of consciousness space and become a channel.

As for why it is in a modern building and in a steel city, this is not something that Zhang Xiao can speculate, but I am afraid it is also related to Hayada Jiro's consciousness, after all, this is his conscious world, and everything is composed according to his consciousness or subconscious.

Zhang Xiao didn't delve into the things that couldn't find answers, anyway, those had nothing to do with him, he was just looking for some anomalies now, whether it was the anomalies of the building itself or the peculiarities of the consciousness space.

In the cold wind, his eyes couldn't be opened, and the shadow of the giant snake was not enough to make his vision very good, Zhang Xiao looked at it for a long time and found nothing, everything looked like just a scene of a ruined building, and the destroyed building didn't seem to hide any secrets.

"Strange, how can it be that there is no abnormality at all?"

Zhang Xiao did not give up, just along the way has proved that this building has an abnormality, not only the room where he came, the building itself is also extraordinary, just look at its height, there are generally bungalows around it, this half-broken building still stands out from the crowd This building proves that this building is unusual.

Just like the Giant Serpent and the Giant of Consciousness, the size of the body in the consciousness space is a very important attribute, which not only means the strength of the power, but also the importance.

This edifice must mean something, Zhang Xiao is sure that there must be something wrong with this edifice.

There is no gain now, but Zhang Xiao does not doubt his judgment, although he is only guessing, but in the consciousness space, there is no so-called evidence for this kind of thing, and the current situation can only show that he did not use the correct method.

"Did you run to the wrong floor?"

Zhang Xiao hesitated, but quickly dismissed the idea.

Because everything this building had done before was to prevent him from going upstairs, to the current "top floor", even at the last minute.

――The huge sense of oppression is undeniably brought about by the giant snake itself, but if you think about it carefully, without the cooperation of the building, how could that sense of oppression make him feel so obvious in the building?

The edifice itself is conscious, or controlled by a certain consciousness, and this consciousness cannot be in league with the giant snake that bites the building, so it is obvious that it will resist the coercion of the giant snake, and it let go of resistance before Zhang Xiao ascended to the top floor, allowing the enemy's power to enter, obviously to stop Zhang Xiao's actions.

So there must be something wrong here, and this place must be very important for this half-broken building.

It's just that no matter how Zhang Xiao looks at it, it's very ordinary, the dilapidated rooms, the rubbish left by the broken buildings everywhere, and there are no other suspicious traces, not even life—there are no traces of "people" here, just like the rest of this steel city.

"Damn, this doesn't look like a conscious place at all."

If it weren't for the encounter in the stairwell and the hall on the first floor, Zhang Xiao would have doubted himself, everything here is so ordinary, so ordinary that he can't see a trace of abnormality.

Zhang Xiao turned around, checking all the garbage on the ground one by one, but except for the collapsed walls, broken tables and chairs, and not even a piece of glass, there was really nothing unusual.

"Abnormal, abnormal...... If the anomaly is not a trace left by Jiro Hayada himself, then ...... Could it be an alien anomaly? ”

Zhang Xiao changed his mind and hid something.

He had been looking for some subconscious anomaly of Jiro Hayata, a reflection of some kind of subconscious anomaly that might be hidden in this place, like the small room he had descended on, the embodiment of some kind of memory, maybe something small, maybe a photograph, a lighter, a page of notes, a pen, or something.

But if you think about it, even if there is such a special thing, it is impossible for these things to be on this layer - this layer that was so coincidentally bitten by a giant snake.

But the consciousness in the mansion is really preventing him from coming to this level, there must be some anomaly here that the consciousness of the mansion doesn't want him to discover.

Obviously, the anomaly that is feared by the consciousness in the edifice can only come from one place.

Zhang Xiao raised his head and looked at the giant snake in the sky again.

The serpent whose shadow obscures the sky.
