I was guarding the campfire. There was only one light in the dark underground river, but the light thinned out ten meters away, and was eventually swallowed up by the darkness farther away. In this tranquility, something suddenly jumps, like a ripple as the leaves fall on the calm surface of a lake. I snapped up and threw my half-burned cigarette into the campfire. This movement is felt by the chain decision, something foreign, and disappears before the chain judgment can outline it. That's certainly not your average underground creature.

Suddenly, a chill grew in the air, and Dr. Nguyen Le made a dreamy sound, his expression was a little painful, and his body wrapped in a blanket curled up as if he was having a nightmare. I stepped forward and grabbed her hand, but instead of being as alert as before, she seemed to be sinking deeper and deeper into a nightmare. Then, as if subconsciously, she grabbed my hand as well.

I found this scene very strange, and although no real enemy was observed, there was a vague aura flowing through it, as if to suggest something, and it was impossible to determine whether it was danger or safety. I'm more inclined to this feeling, a dangerous intuition, and as such, I'm going to do something about it.

I shook Dr. Nguyen Li's body vigorously, screamed loudly in her ear, and then pinched her nose, but I couldn't wake her up. I opened her eyelids, and the pupils in the light were blank, and Dr. Nguyen Li's body twitched a few more times. Although it feels weird, it is very in line with the "mysterious" style.

I can't help but think that the attacks have already begun, targeting ordinary people like Dr. Nguyen Lê. In the past, Dr. Nguyen Li seemed to have excluded all mysteries, neither touching nor being violated by mysterious powers, but now, it seems that something is wrong. is making her gradually involved in the "mystery".

I once guessed that Dr. Nguyen Le appeared in this repeater world precisely because she had an extremely critical identity at the Las Vegas repeater. And the changes that have occurred in her can naturally be linked to the changes in the entire repeater. The mystical organizations of various parties have promoted the mystification of this repeater world before, but it has had no effect on Dr. Ruan Li, then. Could it be that after the moon god was pulled out of Nightmare Las Vegas, the mystification process of the entire repeater world accelerated even faster, reaching a point where even Dr. Nguyen Li could not fully resist?

Whatever the reason, if I don't do something about Dr. Nguyen Li now, I'm afraid her condition will continue to deteriorate.

I lifted Dr. Nguyen Li's head, held her eyelids, and looked into her eyes. Dr. Nguyen Lê's condition made me think she was confused. I'm not really a conscious walker, and the power of mind-walking comes with quite harsh conditions. I relied on making eye contact with someone to initiate a consciousness walk against that person. In normal times. Ordinary people can also achieve these conditions, but Dr. Ruan Li's current condition is not able to consciously look at each other.

I forced her eyelids open, but she was in a nightmare. Her body is like a thick shell, completely losing the function of triggering consciousness and waking people up, but it is like a cage that imprisons consciousness. Even if I deliberately tried to stimulate her with pain, it didn't work.

People who can do this, in my understanding. There are only conscious walkers.

The enemy is the Consciousness Walker!

I stood up abruptly, at the same time. A cold wind blew through my back, and before I could subconsciously turn around, I saw a pale and transparent arm around my neck, hugging it, although there was no real touch, but there was an extremely clear feeling. This is not an illusion.

Something on the back was pasted up, and I thought it was a woman, no, perhaps it should be said, an eerie ghost. I didn't look back. The air rushes against your ears as if it were drizzling against your ears. The darkness in the distance was like a hard curtain, but at this moment it flowed, as if a stone had turned into sand, and the sand collapsed, slipped and flowed, and seemed to make a sound, but if you listened closely, you could not hear it. It was as if the sound of the water had changed to the sound of quicksand, and then the sound of the animals moving around that was full of natural interest disappeared.

After the animal sounds disappeared, the other sounds that set off the tranquility disappeared little by little, becoming silent and full of eerie and terrifying atmosphere.

"Takakawa...... ......"I vaguely heard this voice, as if it was born out of a silent nothingness, straight into my mind, and gave me the illusion that it was something behind it calling - yes, she, it, and then something, and the evolution of this feeling was extremely natural and extremely weird. Now, I'm not sure what it's holding myself to.

The existence of the chain judgment cannot be accurately observed, it is like a ripple after a fallen leaf floats into the water, and the ripple disappears after spreading, and it will disappear in the observation of the chain decision. It hugged me and wrapped its arms around my neck, but my skin didn't feel anything, or rather, the flow of air rubbed against my skin like it touched.

I felt cold on my back, but I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The best evidence of its existence, not hallucination, is that my naked eye can see such a transparent arm, almost melted into the air, and along this arm, I will unconsciously imagine its body in my mind.

It was the image of a woman with a wonderful figure, but how wonderful it was, I could only say that when I unconsciously followed this arm and imagined it, it was as wonderful as this imagination.

I suddenly knew who was behind me. This consciousness did not arise suddenly, it seemed to be the result of spontaneous thinking, but I felt that it was not entirely spontaneous, and there was some kind of force that guided my thinking.

“…… I...... Who is it? I could hear it say it behind me, but it didn't speak, it made up for the scene in my head. And when I imagined this sound, I suddenly had an intuition that I shouldn't have to imagine it. But who can fully grasp their own minds under this mysterious power?

I couldn't, so one answer came to my mind – it was Maria the Lady in Red.

The next moment, I saw that the arm around my neck had turned from translucent to solid, like mist before, now like complete flesh and blood. Followed by. I felt the touch and bullying of that wonderful body, and I heard her breath in my ears, and then there was a temperature.

It finally became her! All the thoughts that were stirring in my mind were determined to be this result in this instant.

Her arms contracted violently, trying to grab my throat. Then something sharp went straight into my lower back. At the moment of a thousand troops, the rapid plunder was launched, and all the attacks were all at once, and I was about to fight back, but she suddenly disappeared. When I reappeared, it was already ten meters away from me.

This kind of movement, which does not have the concept of speed at all, is like a spatial shift. But I'm not surprised at all, because in this apocalyptic fantasy. When Gao Chuan was just a child, he had already seen this girl in red and knew how weird and powerful she was. The perception at that time has always remained in my mind as a vague impression, and I cannot feel unfamiliar with it.

"Long time no see." I looked at the woman in red ten meters away and said, shaking the folding knife and throwing the blade out. I know very well that this time we met. It's not as good as the last time we met. Although it is not clear what kind of "mystery" the other party used, it caused the previous anomaly. But. The other party was already active in the Las Vegas repeater or Valpurgis Night, and what she mastered must be related to the power of the repeater.

Although the current activities of Area 51 are centered on the "child of destiny" Novsky, this is a force that is put on the surface. It does not mean that there is only one representative of the 51st District, Novsky. Compared to Novsky, Maria in Red has more time in contact with the repeater, even the time of its own existence, the events she has experienced. and seniority in District 51 is more than that of Novsky, a guy who entered halfway.

Judging from the previous confrontations, the mystery of her existence is not below Novsky, and even more strange from a certain point of view. When she hugged me in that ghostly stance, it wasn't that I couldn't fight back, but I didn't think of it in the first place. As a half-consciousness walker, I know exactly what it is - my consciousness and thinking are being disturbed.

Became a consciousness walker? I can't help but think. Looking at Dr. Ruan Li, who fell into a nightmare and couldn't wake up, he became more and more sure of this speculation.

The Lady in Red Maria used to be like a ghost, like a ghost, it is difficult to judge whether she is alive or dead, and Takakawa in the past has experienced a part of her past in the form of "dreams" and "hallucinations", but if you want to talk about her origin, there is no completely correct information.

Now she stood in front of my eyes, still with long hair and a shawl, a red dress and a body-length dress, and her breath was full of malice and resentment, and she was suddenly observed by the chain judgment, and then disappeared from the observation. I'm not sure if what I see with the naked eye is what she really is, and from the perspective of the occult, in the face of such a being, what the naked eye sees is often unreal.

I'm not surprised at all why she didn't do anything to me and Dr. Nguyen Le until now. Because for the moment, I feel that I have undoubtedly fallen into the disadvantage, and this result is enough to prove that her choice has been thought out and prepared.

The hazy voice of "Gao Chuan ......" echoed in this river, and it was impossible to hear whether it was the voice of the girl in red in front of him.

Although the chain judgment could not fully observe the lady in red, it was still no problem to lock on Dr. Nguyen Li. That's why I'm not worried about her sudden takeaway of Dr. Nguyen Le in a strange way. I took a few steps back and carried Dr. Nguyen Lê on my shoulder, who had fallen into a nightmare.

"Do you want to fight?" I stared at her and said, "You can't stop me." ”

The woman in red still hung her head and did not speak, but there was a strange sound of Si Si Suo in the darkness ahead, and I had a feeling that it was not the sound of animal activity in the underground river, but it was also very numerous. The voices grew louder and denser, as if they were crowded together, rushing towards us.

“…… Try it. I seemed to hear the woman in red say that, but when I thought about it, it was as if it had never been there.

The next moment, the woman in red disappeared from my observations, silent and extremely sharp, in my intuition, in my imagination, into two arcs of light, as if to cut off my body, cut off my thoughts, cut off the perceptions that guided my bodily activity. The activity of the human body is a combination of inertia, reaction and thinking, and these two arcs of light that suddenly emerge in the imagination are to cut off these things and make the body unable to move.

I'm even more sure that this is the power of conscious walking.

If I had been earlier, I would not have been able to dodge this blow even if I had been able to use my mind to guide the swift sweep and reach a relatively fast speed beyond the movement of anything tangible. However, I also have the power of consciousness to walk with the "river", and my speed sweep is not just faster than observable tangible things.

I can be faster than my consciousness, and it is not the Lady in Red who is used as a reference at this time, but myself, my own consciousness, and the two sharp arcs of light that appeared in my imagination, and before my thoughts and consciousness were cut off, the Swift Sweep Super was activated. In the invisible high-speed corridor, even if my body can't move, there is a force that pushes my body.

The attack of the woman in red is strange and mysterious, but this attack cannot directly kill my consciousness, only an empty shell-like body remains, and it will eventually act on the body, and the attack on the consciousness is only to restrain the prey so that it cannot escape the attack on the body.

Or rather, I'm betting, betting that her attack is like that. The battle with "mystery" as the core is just such a thing, the so-called knowing the root is just a kind of self-comfort, and there has never been a mysterious expert who can ensure that the "mystery" he is facing is what he has known in advance, and he can judge it in a short time in a sudden battle.

Every battle is a gamble, big or small. Only those who are blessed with luck can survive all kinds of strange and mysterious powers that cannot be known in advance.

This time, I got it right again. The attack of the woman in red is indeed still centered on the flesh. Simply attacking consciousness is the means of an authentic consciousness walker, and the approach of the woman in red just proves that she, like me, is just a half-consciousness walker. With such power, it looks powerful, but it can only be used to assist. (To be continued......)
