Chapter 39: The Holy Place
Several rounds of strange pale blue celestial bodies hung in the sky like gray rags, and the occasional passing skeletal bird circled in the sky before vanishing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The ghouls, who were supposed to be roaming around the black graveyard, didn't know where they had gone, perhaps with their barren instincts, they also felt the threat of death.
In short, as far as the eye can see, you can only see rows of orderly nameless tombstones spreading to the other side of the world.
Chen Zhe dragged his tired body and staggered on the black ground, and at the end of his vision was the mysterious place of the ruins of time.
At the same time, that place is also the final trial place in Rhea's mouth!
As we got closer to our destination, the towering reverse cross piercing the top of the gray sky became more and more striking.
But Chen Zhe just glanced at it, then quickly withdrew his gaze, panting and leaning against an unnamed tombstone to gasp.
With the twenty-two paths shattered, he could no longer run as incessantly as before, and now he had to stop and rest every 10,000 steps he took.
Otherwise, he would have died from a burst of blood vessels all over his body......
Of course, the above is what the eleventh said to Chen Zhe, but the actual situation is not as serious as he said, and it did not appear within the immediate fall to the ground and violent death, at most it was just bleeding from the seven orifices, and there was still a long way to go before death.
After recklessly trying it once, the feeling of the muscles and blood vessels in his whole body being burst made Chen Zhe never dare to take another step.
Along the way, stopping and walking became almost all of his life, but fortunately, he was escorted by No. 11 and the empress, otherwise Chen Zhe would have become the excrement of a certain ghoul.
However, the empress still has a lot of complaints about protecting Chen Zhe, and occasionally she can see the clues from the way she looks at Chen Zhe, and it is obvious that she hates Chen Zhe's type of light bulb.
Even if he is exactly the same as himself!
Chen Zhe leaned against the nameless tombstone and remembered that it was "not so long ago", (probably not so long ago, anyway, time has never passed in this place.) Eleven had warned him about it.
"Now you have two options, either crush the black device on your wrist and cut off your only connection to the present world, and then your injuries will be repaired automatically. Secondly, rely on your own perseverance to go to the side of the inverted cross, and after the final trial, go back to the Middle Ages to find Leonardo da Vinci, the most old friend I think he should tell you how to open the inscription of the heart! ”
It is naturally impossible to crush the ring device, after all, there is a peerless woman like a royal sister hidden in it, and it is impossible to choose the first one with your ass.
Therefore, Chen Zhe naturally chose the second option, after all, the purpose of his being sent here by Rhea was to be able to reach the bottom of the cross.
As for whether or not he can go back alive and find that kind artist, it depends on luck.
Seeing that Chen Zhe chose the second one without hesitation, the eleventh shrugged his shoulders and said: "Since you have chosen the second one, as a senior, I will give you some more advice, first of all, it is simply delusional to want to reach Alice Land in your current state, well, let me explain here, Alice Land is your final destination this time." ”
"It's a step to be able to take one step......," Chen Zhe replied with a bright smile on the eleventh.
"You mean it doesn't matter if you're dead?"
Nonsense, Lao Tzu hasn't lived enough! Who wants to die? But isn't there no way?
Perhaps it was the anger in Chen Zhe's eyes that "moved" No. 11, "In this way, let's make a deal, I will personally escort you to Aliceland, and you have to promise me a condition, what do you think?" ”
Under this kind of tempting bait, Chen Zhe didn't even think about it, and he didn't even have time for a moment of reserve, "Okay, let's do it...... Let's make a decision! ”
Seeing Chen Zhe agreeing so readily, No. 11 couldn't believe it, and asked Chi Chi: "You don't ask me what conditions I proposed?" ”
"Well, then you can quickly say the conditions!" Chen Zhe's face turned red, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"Forget it, it's not too late to talk about this after we get through the man's guard!"
"The man?! Was that man the culprit behind all this? Hearing the eleventh mention of that person, Chen Zhe asked curiously.
The empress's seductive red lips opened slightly, as if she wanted to answer Chen Zhe's question, but was interrupted by No. 11's hand
Then under Chen Zhe's unclear eyes, he turned around and pointed to the rather vague reverse cross, and said, "Then let's hurry now!" ”
……
While he was still recalling the previous events, his thoughts were interrupted by a voice.
"Have you rested?" No. 11 stood alone in front of Chen Zhe and asked lightly.
Because the empress is in a soul state and does not appear in this world for a long time, she will only come out of the heart of the eleventh after every 100,000 steps.
"Well, let's go!" Chen Zhe nodded, stood up from the tombstone, and continued to walk forward.
Two big men with the same appearance, walking on the black ground without saying a word, the atmosphere is always a little awkward, if the empress is still there, she will also enliven the atmosphere from time to time, it seems that the world of men can not be without women, otherwise even gags lack the necessary motivation.
"Uh...... That ......" After thinking about it for more than two hundred years, Chen Zhe finally spoke out to break the dull atmosphere.
"Say anything!" Eleven walked ahead and said without looking back.
"Can you tell me something? I wonder who you and the one in Mouth One are? After Chen Zhe sorted out the wording, he asked.
“……”
No. 11 stopped, looked back at Chen Zhe playfully, and said, "Who is that person, is it so important?" ”
"It doesn't matter that much, if it weren't for you who piqued my curiosity, who would care about that person, who is this person?" Chen Zhe took over the topic and replied with a yawn.
"Actually, there's nothing to hide, you won't know the identity of that person in a long time!"
"What's the difference between what you say and what you don't say?" Chen Zhe tugged at the corners of his mouth and laughed: "Forget it, when I didn't ask!" ”
After this small episode, silence enveloped the two men again.
After walking and stopping again I don't know how many times, Chen Zhe and his party finally came to the end of the cemetery, and this time it happened that the empress was also there.
No one expected that there would be such a huge garden lurking behind this cold cemetery of death.
"Could this be the legendary Alice's back garden?"
When she saw the clusters of snow-white flowers blooming in front of her, spreading to the farthest part of the horizon, the empress hesitated for more than ten seconds before she said in disbelief.
Chen Zhe pursed his lips and said secretly: What's so surprising about this? Isn't this place overgrown with mandalas? What's all the fuss!
"Alice's back garden? Are you sure? When the eleventh heard the empress's words, he suddenly felt a thrill.
Although he had never been here either, according to the information he had obtained from No. 1's memory, the man was behind the end of this backyard called Alice!
"Hmmm! I've heard Rhea say before that at the end of the ruins of time, there is a region full of mandalas, which is the most holy place in the entire ruins of time, and all creatures stained with the breath of death are not qualified to step into this back garden! Like me, who has a soul left, there should be no way to step into this! ”
