Shi Yuan's eyes were almost popping out of his sockets, and the extreme pain made his brain unable to think.

At this moment, he saw that Zhen Manman's face had changed. A face appeared in front of his eyes as if it had been pulled out of the surrounding hair.

It was a face that was extremely beautiful.

"Shi Yuan......" Zhen Manman was expressionless, "Remember, you never know if the person who has his back to you really has a face." ”

The pressure on his neck suddenly lightened, and Shi Yuan gasped violently.

However, his gaze seemed to be fixed on Zhen Manman's face, and he couldn't move a bit.

It's so beautiful. This girl is prettier than anyone I've ever seen, including those female stars, and even characters from anime.

How can there be such a beautiful person in reality?

Zhen Manman suddenly smiled, his eyes flashing.

"Shi Yuan, you are finally willing to look at me. Great, it shows that my approach worked. Tomorrow, you will definitely remember me, remember that we once met in a dream. I will make you realize that you have me in your heart. ”

Shi Yuan did not speak. The shock made him forget how to speak.

An alarm clock rang, and Shi Yuan woke up.

This is his bedroom, his home in Haiyuan City.

"That dream ...... just now"

He covered his forehead, feeling a little hot.

I dreamed of Zhen Manman. Why is that?

Shi Yuan was puzzled and looked at the snow-white wall in a daze.

Wake up, wash up, eat breakfast, and rush to school.

As soon as he walked into the classroom, Shi Yuan set his eyes on his tablemate.

Looking at Zhen Manman's posture, Shi Yuan felt that the descriptions of beauties in all the literary works in the world were not too much for her. However, there was no turmoil in his heart, and he didn't feel anything about her. It's not so much that he's looking at a beautiful girl, but rather at a work of art, an illusion.

Shi Yuan's heart suddenly trembled.

Illusion? Zhen Manman? This girl ...... What does it look like?

Shi Yuan became dazed and froze in place.

The desks, chairs, and students around him seemed to move away from him in an instant, and he felt as if he was sinking into the water.

Water...... Protection...... Illusion...... Hallucination......

The noise of the students suddenly turned into a shrill whistling sound, almost bursting Shi Yuan's eardrums. He covered his ears with his hands in pain, and the sound of his own heartbeat became clear.

"Shi Yuan ......"

A hand tapped him on the shoulder, startling him.

He turned around sharply and saw an ordinary girl.

"Who are you?"

He said subconsciously.

The girl was stunned and said, "Shi Yuan, I'm Zhen Manman." You...... You don't remember me at all......"

"Are you Zhen Manman?"

Shi Yuan's eyes widened, staring at her.

"yes......"

Zhen Manman seemed to be a little weak-hearted, took two steps back, and then walked away.

Is she Zhen Manman? Who was that particularly beautiful girl just now?

Shi Yuan felt his heart pounding suddenly, and looked around, trying to find the person just now.

He searched for a long time, but he didn't find her.

The skin is a little cold. Not because of fear, but because of water on the skin.

Where does the water come from?

Shi Yuan looked down and saw that both of his arms were wet.

He touched his hair, which was also wet.

The school uniforms on his body were all dripping down as if they had just been taken out of the water.

What's going on?

He looked at his clothes in amazement, and then at the other classmates.

Almost all of them were soaking wet and their clothes were dripping. They all sat in their seats, expressionless and pale.

They don't look like living people at all.

Among the crowd, there was one person who looked completely different from the others, there was no water on his clothes, his face was also very normal, and a pair of big eyes were looking at him.

It was the very beautiful girl just now.

"Who are you?"

Shi Yuan immediately asked.

The girl didn't answer, but smiled.

A smile that looks like it's making the hairs stand on end.

Fear suddenly wrapped Shi Yuan tightly like a huge cloak. The feeling of fear seemed strange and yet familiar.

It's weird.

Shi Yuan sensed that something was wrong. I'm just an ordinary person, and it's normal to feel fear, but why does my current fear have a sense of strangeness? It's like I shouldn't feel this way when I see such a strange scene in front of me.

Shouldn't there be? Wait, I'm ...... I seem to have forgotten something...... I feel like I've forgotten a long part of my life......

Shi Yuan covered his head with his hands in pain, lost strength in his legs, and collapsed to the ground.

Memories flashed through his mind.

Luo Yasen, Liu Tong, Fang Yisheng...... Demons, bloody scenes...... Horror missions again and again...... Dark World ......

Dark world?

Shi Yuan opened his eyes suddenly.

It was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my fingers.

This is the dark world. All of them, no doubt, were hallucinations.

Shi Yuan's heart seemed to be let go, and it seemed to be hanging again.

The phone is ringing, and the red dot is flashing.

The location of the red dot is just ahead. Shi Yuan turned on the flashlight and ran again.

Isn't the way to break the illusion is to recall those tasks and the dark world? But how do you remember when you're in a hallucination and your brain is completely controlled? Can it only be by luck?

Shi Yuan felt a burst of irritability.

Fortunately, I have now thought about it and acted quickly. The location shown by the red dot is ahead, and if nothing else, it should be where the balance stone is.

Shi Yuan had fully understood that the reason why he didn't find the balance stone in the first few times was because he was in an illusion every time, and his five senses lost their effect, even if the balance stone was in front of him, he couldn't see it at all.

Now that the illusion has been shattered, the goal should be achieved quickly.

Shi Yuan couldn't help but get nervous.

He remembered feeling the death of a loved one he had just felt, so now he was desperate to solve it all.

The location of the red dot has arrived.

With the help of flashlight, Shi Yuan saw a wordless stone tablet about ten meters high.

That's the balance stone.

Shi Yuan thought in his heart.

He could almost completely confirm this, as he felt the strong anomalous fluctuations coming from that stone tablet.

He stopped running, and slowly approached the stele.

The stele looks extremely old, with several visible cracks in it.

Crack? Could it be that this is why the two worlds are out of balance? But how do I restore this stele?

As soon as these questions appeared in Shi Yuan's mind, he felt a piece of information appear in his mind.

"Do you want to mend it with the blood of the living?"

He whispered to himself.

Looking at those cracks, Shi Yuan's heart sank.

He was the only living person here, and he didn't know how much blood it would take to repair those rifts.
