Chapter 40: The Yellow Spring That Never Changed
"What's going on?"
No, no, no matter how Pang Zhi searched, they didn't find Huangquan in this world, there were only traces left by her, and after Kagura confirmed, the surrounding scene was what the city was like when Huangquan lived with her, and the story continued in this city.
In the dojo of Kagura's house, the two of them met for the first time and fought each other, a wooden sword was in a posture in the air, and then fell to the ground weakly before it could be swung, according to Kagura, which was the same as the process of her first fight with Huangquan, and she concentrated on coping with it, but was defeated in an instant.
This is no longer the strange scene they saw when they came to this place, the story of Yellow Springs and Kagura in this city is constantly played, but no matter how much they search, they can't find any actors, whether they are leading actors, supporting characters or even passers-by, whether they are humans or demons, they don't exist, only the damage and movement of props show what is happening here.
"What should I do?"
It's a very big problem, no enemies, no friendly forces, no communication, basically the same as not being able to get any intelligence, in this case.
"Kagura, do you remember anything?"
They can only rely on Kagura, since this is a world built with the memories of Huangquan, then the only person who knows most about this world is Kagura, maybe she knows how to lead them through this place.
"Hey, Elijah, Elijah, don't you have any hints?"
Although he thought so, Pang Zhi decided to struggle a little and at least ask for help from the sidelines.
"Without any hints, all I can feel is that you're almost wandering around the second level of space, until you just left the spot a little bit."
"Thank you."
What Ilya said was already a hint, Pang Zhi and they had searched according to the layout of the city in physical space, starting from the forest where they first appeared on the opposite side of the city, and passed through the entire city until they came to this house.
Through Elijah's words, even the most stupid person can get a message at this moment, this space is not physically distributed in front of back, left and right, it has other rules.
"Kagura, do you remember where the forest we first appeared was?"
Kagura groaned for a moment, a look of surprise on her face, and then said in a deep voice, "That's where Huangquan's parents died in battle. ”
Sure enough, the space is progressively deepened in chronological order.
Being able to think of such a conclusion is not to say how smart Pang Zhi is, just as a human being, his understanding of dimensions is basically time and space, not the latter, but naturally the former.
"Kagura, it's up to you."
Now that the rules are known, it becomes very simple to move forward, and under Kagura's leadership, they can be said to have experienced a complete set of Soul Eater Zero's plot, although there are no actors who appear. Eventually, their story ends in the forest on the other side of the city, and in the scene where the characters are lost, there are only falling raindrops to mourn what has passed.
But.
"Ilya, how far have we gone now?"
"Halfway there, but there's good news." The girl's tone did not have any sense of excitement that brought good news, "The rules of the space you are in now have changed a little from before, and even if you get lost, you will only get lost in this part, and you will not return to the previous place." ”
Lost, and the rules of the space changed, Pang Zhi knew why this good news was so unhappy, because they had to find the rules from scratch.
"Will the time be in time?" It has been a full 12 hours since Pang Zhi was sent into that space by Ilya, and the war in the outside world has reached the point of madness, and the power of dead life has bred holes, and pure evil continues to flow out of the hole, encouraging intelligent beings from the outside world to continue to kill.
When the slaughter reaches its climax, the malice of this world will coalesce into monsters, the most terrifying monsters of all legends, and bring destruction to all life.
Fast, faster, although Ilya did not inform the people inside what had become on the outside, although they could not correctly perceive the speed of time passing inside, they did know that there was not much time left.
It's not a spatial order, it's impossible to be a temporal order, what could it be?
"Importance, Kagura, according to the importance of the memories of the Yellow Spring, let's look for this place again."
"Okay."
The only thing they could think of in a short period of time was such an order, and now they could only pray, and this space was at least arranged according to the logic of Huang Quan, who was a human being, otherwise they could only rely on luck.
But it seems that if that's the case, they can also pass, because luck is really on their side, just after randomly testing the space order is incorrect, the guessed order is the new order, so they should be able to pass the level quickly.
"Pang Zhi, stop immediately."
But just as they were moving forward quickly, trying to break through this layer of space, Ilya suddenly gave an order, "You are going backwards, and the speed of the reversal is very fast, you are going wrong. ”
Gone wrong? How is this possible, they are moving forward exactly according to Kagura's prompts, and their previous actions have proven that Kagura is correct, how could they be wrong at this time.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Pang Zhi who suddenly stopped, Kagura instinctively asked.
"We're on the wrong track."
Kagura was even more surprised than Pang Zhi, she thought that after going through the past incident, she should have really understood Huang Quan, understood what a good sister Huang Quan was, and realized her true place in Huang Quan's heart, so at this time, she led everyone back to their home, which should be the place where she and Huang Quan had the heaviest bond.
"Isn't it?"
After muttering to herself, Kagura sped up sharply and rushed in the other direction.
"Hey ......"
"Pang Zhi catches up, and the path she chose is the right one."
There was no time to ask the other party what was going on, and he didn't have time to figure out why it was right at this time, Pang Zhi pulled Lu Sheng, who was as forced as himself, and only chased after Kagura.
Then on that pathetic battlefield that he had once seen, he saw the maiden kneeling on the ground in pain.
"Yellow Spring, Yellow Spring......"
There's no way not to cry, because Kagura realized one thing at this time, it turned out that at that time, when she was thinking about how to free her corrupted sister, her sister was actually in such a mood.
It's very gratifying to see my sister grow up and mature and become able to take charge of herself.
"Kagura, you've finally grown up, so I can leave with peace of mind, but I still have to apologize to you for making you suffer so much."
