Chapter 1: Finally
"Well, I heard you. Let's go, let's return to Raven Ridge. Regardless, the village of Raven Ridge is the center of the curse. Since the decision was made to move into the dark world, it had to be done there. At least, there are no more people there. If it is forcibly reversed at the source of the sea, it is likely that innocent people will be harmed. ”
Shi Yuan said as he walked towards Luo Yasen's car.
An Lingxian and Takegami Yukino also got into the car with them.
The atmosphere in the car was somewhat oppressive. Faced with an unknown destination, Takegami Yuki instinctively felt a little nervous.
An Lingxian looked at her, and her face also showed worry.
"Yukino, you ......"
"Sister, you don't have to persuade me. I know it's dangerous. However, I believe in Shi Yuan. I also hope that sister, you will trust my judgment. ”
"Okay......"
An Lingxian pursed her lips and sighed.
The air in the car fell silent again, and everyone had their own agenda.
The car sped through the night, and the scenery on both sides receded at great speed.
Tonight's Haiyuan seems to have a sense of depression. This is almost unthinkable in normal times.
There are no bright neon lights, no noise of people partying all night, no busy roads as busy as daytime.
Everything is silent.
Darkness enveloped the city, and it enveloped all the people here.
In less than half an hour, the car drove out of Haiyuan city and came to the highway.
The empty highway gave Royasen a reason to push the speed of the car to the limit. With the roar of the roar, the car sped away towards the Raven Ridge at great speed.
For Shi Yuan, this journey was more than just a return to Dark Raven Ridge. The endless darkness ahead represents the unknown fate that follows.
Dark world.
Are you finally going to enter the dark world?
Shi Yuan didn't say a word, his face was solemn, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
He unfolded his telekinesis vision, looking down at himself in motion from above. He unfolded his perception domain, perceiving all the anomalous auras around him. He felt the dance of small, cold droplets of water in the air, and the blood flowing rapidly in his veins.
Is there still a chance to live as a living person again? Will the dark world be the end of my life?
Shi Yuan closed his eyes and "looked" at the number.
68.
That's the number of lives he has so far.
If all of this is consumed, he will only have one last life left.
Dark World......
Shi Yuan sighed softly and rested his head on the back of the seat behind him.
Needless to say, there must be a staggering number of demons in that world. No one knows exactly how many ways they can kill a person.
Sixty-eight lives, is it enough?
Shi Yuan smiled miserably and closed his eyes. He was tired and wanted to take a break.
He didn't intend to sleep, but he fell asleep in an instant.
He dreamed of the vast and boundless dark world, the third aunt and Shen Han, and the villagers of Dark Crow Ridge Village.
He dreamed of "that power" behind it all, but its essence was just a dark shadow that could not be seen.
He dreamed that he was dead, and at the last moment he heard a cry from someone who didn't know.
He dreamed of the ghost body that looked exactly like him, and after he himself was forced into the dark world, he came to the light world and killed his friends.
He dreamed of his parents, who were busy in Wanyue City, unaware of what was going on with their son.
He also dreamed of his classmates who died abnormally, and dreamed of Li Zihang, Duan Jiaxuan, and Yang Yanqi. Strangely, he did not "see" them directly in his dream, but dreamed of a few empty seats in the classroom where normal teaching had resumed.
"Hey, it's here."
Royasen's voice suddenly drilled into his ears.
Shi Yuan opened his eyes, but he felt that there was still darkness around him.
Raven Ridge Village, arrived.
A strong anomalous aura hovered in the air, wriggling in the air as if it had a life of its own. Shi Yuan suddenly felt that they were very similar to those cold and wriggling things in Haiyuan No. 3.
Shi Yuan opened the car door and walked down, taking a deep breath of the cold night air.
"Sister, is this the place where you have lived for more than ten years?"
Yukino Takegami asked softly as he looked at everything around him.
"Yes. The place has been cursed, and the villagers are almost all dead. Let's go with Royasin to his house. ”
An Lingxian said.
As soon as they walked to the gate, the door opened, and Liu Tong and Li Molei walked out.
Originally, Li Molei wanted to go to Haiyuan with Luo Yasen, but at that time, Luo Yasen did not expect that Shi Yuan would encounter a series of "games" in Haiyuan, and then delayed for so long. He thought that he could go back and forth that day, so he didn't let Li Molei go along.
After getting along these days, Li Molei and Liu Tong have become very familiar and have become friends.
When they saw the snow on Takekami, both of them were stunned for a moment.
"This is ......"
"Oh, his name is Yukino Takekami, he is An Lingxian's younger brother, and he is also a 'person of the same root and origin'."
Shi Yuan introduced.
After a brief greeting, everyone entered Luo Yasen's house and sat down in the living room on the first floor.
"Great, anyway, I finally found the 'same root and the same origin'."
Liu Tong said.
"yes. This time, the harvest is actually more than that. ”
Shi Yuan told Liu Tong about the earrings, and after a pause, he also told the story of the four baby corpses.
"Baby...... Corpse? ”
Hearing Shi Yuan's words, Liu Tong and Li Molei were very surprised.
However, after all, they were people who had experienced several paranormal events, and they quickly regained their composure.
"In other words, everything you need, you have ready?"
Liu Tong asked.
"Yes. I thought, I ...... You can go into the dark world at any time. ”
As if a switch had been pressed at this point, everyone suddenly fell silent, the air seemed to become frozen, and everyone's expressions changed subtly.
Shi Yuan looked around at everyone and said, "I know how dangerous it will be to turn into the dark world. I'm mentally prepared. As you all know, there are only two blank tombstones left, and the curse could erupt at any moment. It's not just people who die during a mission who leave their names on their tombstones, and anyone who dies abnormally will. We have no way of knowing where in this world at this moment there is a paranormal event going on and whether anyone will die because of it. We have to do it as soon as possible. ”
"Shi Yuan......" Liu Tong turned pale with nervousness, "Do you think about it...... ...... now"
"No, not now. Although I had been sleeping in the car for a long time, I had to be physically prepared to turn into the dark world. In addition, I would like to know the extent of your special abilities. If I could, I'd like to see Fang Yisheng. ”
