Chapter 3: The Nightmare

The emergence of the gift-giving system made the rest of the people no longer sleepy and began to look for them.

Although the predecessors who claimed to be the forerunners had no malicious intent, the gifts they sent were strange and everything. The location of the item after the replacement is even more unexpected, which is really a little laughable.

In the end, Yumi found a clip on his head that could turn into a knife (it can also be said to be a knife that could be turned into a clip), Li Huang found a gold watch that could shoot anesthetic needles, and Ziyuan actually found an article on his mobile phone called "As long as a week, monkeys can learn arc shooting." electronic documents.

"What kind of mess is this, how can a bullet arc over a short distance...... Well? As he spoke, Ziyuan suddenly fell silent, and even his eyes became serious.

"It doesn't seem to be nonsense." Su Qin shook his head and flipped through the thick book in his hand, since the blue light came out, the first half of this book has become readable at will, but the second half is still like glue that can't be opened. However, the content of the first half alone is enough to rival the gains of others. Although it is not as straightforward as what Yumi and Li Huang obtained, this book records the use of a natural power called psionic energy.

Judging from the notes in the book, its original owner was a Thousand Sons Wizard who belonged to a branch of the Crow Sect of an organization called the Children of a Thousand Sore Warband. This is a psionic book given to him by his master, the first half of the book contains some simple general psionic abilities in addition to the knowledge related to meditation, and the middle part records the unique prophetic witchcraft of the Crow Sect. Unfortunately, for Su Qin, these psionic witchcraft recorded in Gothic language, which resembled Old English, were really a bit obscure. Although he was already multilingual, he was at a loss for what to do with this unfamiliar language, which had evolved from Latin. In particular, the chapters on psionic analysis, with their extensive use of jargon and metaphorical allusions, make it feel like reading a wordless book.

Therefore, he focused his attention on the opening chapter that describes psionic energy and its users. The book describes in detail how psionics draw strange energies from the immaterial realm (or subspace or AP) to induce various psionic sorcery. It also mentions the disadvantages of psionic powers, and while psionics who drive them are extremely powerful, they are just as expensive to use. When a psionic person is using psionic energy, the projection of his soul stored in the subspace will appear unusually bright.

For creatures in the immaterial realm (as they are commonly referred to in the books as demons), it is like a roaring bonfire in the night. Demons attracted by this will flock to these campfires like moths to a fire. Unlike moths, moths to fire represent death, while demons that pounce on their souls represent the death of psionics. Seeing this, Su Qin might as well fall into contemplation, although this natural force seems to be very powerful, it also has the danger to match. Whether or not to learn it is a difficult judgment to make. What's more, he couldn't confirm whether he had psionic potential.

While Su Qin was thinking, the others were also familiar with the newly acquired props.

Yumi pulled out the knife that he had turned into, and the blade of the knife looked extremely cold in the moonlight. However, looking at this sharp knife, she showed a helpless wry smile.

"Someone actually turned the boy Che Angang into a card, it's really tyrannical." Holding the quaint scabbard of a national treasure, Yumi shook his head, not knowing what to say. On the other side, Li Huang happily tried to bite the strap of the gold watch, and judging from his happy expression, it seemed that it was really pure gold. After some fiddling, the members of the temporary team began to arrange the vigil order, and it was Su Qin's turn in the second half of the night because he was too tired and soon fell into a deep dream. At the same time, the psionic tome he had used as a pillow under his head emitted a faint aura.

"What kind of place is this? Am I dreaming? ”

In the haze, Su Qin was standing on a dissipating sandy field, and outside was a boundless ocean of turbid colors. There is no distinction between up and down, left and right in this space, and Su Qin can only use himself as a punctuation point to describe the general direction. Above him float several gravel islands, the larger of which is full of weathered pyramids and temples. Not far away, the statue of the Sphinx, which had lost its head, slowly sank into the quicksand.

This is a world that is about to die, and such a thought inexplicably rose in Su Qin's heart.

The confused youth was walking along the edge of the sand island into the distance, but several black shadows suddenly appeared in the desert. These half-void ghosts with their upper bodies resembling skeletons were constantly flying around Su Qin, and strange screams came out of their mouths from time to time. More and more ghost creatures gathered above Su Qin's head like vultures, some of them wrapped in tattered cloth belts. This scene gave Su Qin a strong sense of immediacy, and he looked down at the body in his "dream". I saw countless amber rays of light spreading outward from his translucent body. If this is a projection of his soul, then this must be the subspace recorded in the book, and the names of these ghosts are about to come out.

They are subspace creatures or demons!

The overwhelming ghost pounced on Su Qin like a locust, and he only had time to raise his arm before he felt a huge impact coming from all directions. Although the ghost that bumped into Su Qin vaporized in an instant like morning dew dripping on a candle, it also brought him a sharp pain from the depths of his soul. Su Qin couldn't suppress a muffled snort of pain, but it didn't kill him directly. In the midst of boundless pain, Su Qin struggled to maintain the last vestiges of consciousness to resist the ghost's incessant screams.

Until that picture came along......

Bleak white sunlight, withered trees, hanging corpses, dim silk, and a fruit fly perched on the blue pupils of the deceased. The breeze blows, and the flies whip their wings away from the corpse. The slight buzzing sound continued to echo in Su Qin's ears, and finally turned into a deafening roar, and the painful blow from the memory of the past completely broke his will, and just as he was about to be engulfed by the ghost, a solemn chant came from his ears.

"Nan Wu - Sammando - 嚩日啰 - 赧 - Fierce ......"

Su Qin sat up from the ground suddenly, cold sweat crawling all over his back, staining his pale gray shirt with a depressing ink-colored stain.

"What did you do? How can it be like being possessed by an evil spirit? Yumi sat aside and asked in an unkind tone, it was she who showed Su Qin's abnormality just now. Based on her past exorcism, she resolutely began reciting verses from the Fudo Myowang Sutra to appease her nightmares-ridden teammates.

"It's just a ...... It's just a nightmare. Su Qin covered his mouth and made a muffled voice, and a cold light flowed out of his godless eyes, breaking the gentle mask that hung on his face. Yumi shook his head and didn't say much, after all, the two sides were just fellow travelers who were forced to get along.

"It's a shift change, be careful yourself." Picking up the blanket he had snatched from the robbers, Yumi gave a disgusted look. Obviously, for active female high school students, the smell and fleas are both big enemies.

"I have a washed spare blanket in my backpack, you can use it," Su Qin said without looking back as he sat down by the campfire.

"Thanks, that ...... Good night. Yumi stopped talking, but in the end he just said goodnight.

Light a cigarette for a long time, and the night will soon pass. The next morning, as soon as Su Qin opened his eyes, he saw Li Huang looking at him blankly.

"What's wrong?"

"I. Pants. Leg. Village. Yes. East. West. Li Huang squirmed his lips and whispered, afraid of alarming the "little partner" in his pants.

"Huh?"

"There's something cold in my crotch...... Still. Yes. The guy who looks "cool" ...... is showing an expression that is about to cry at the moment, which really makes people laugh.

"Don't move, let me come."

Su Qin jumped out of the burnt bonfire with a long dead branch, sharpened it with a survival folding knife, and held it in his hand.

"Don't move."

"Wait...... Wait a minute! What are you doing? ”

"Anyway, you just don't move, or you can say goodbye to your little friends."

"Know... I know, I'm definitely not moving. Li Huang stared nervously at the dead branch in Su Qin's hand.

"By the way, Li Huang, you're still a virgin, right?"

"Huh? Yes!!! ”

Su Qin suddenly asked inexplicably, and this embarrassing question made Li Huang involuntarily pause. At this moment, Su Qin stabbed the dead branch in his hand violently. The sharp tip of the dead branch stabbed into Li Huang's crotch fiercely, and a thick strip inside writhed violently, and a few seconds later, a blood-red wet stain spread on Li Huang's hip-hop wide cropped pants.

"It's okay, get the body out, it should be dead."

“…… Big guy, the next time you do this kind of thing, can you please say it first? I was almost scared to death! Li Huang said with tears streaming down his face:

Just now, Su Qin relied on his unusual intuition to accurately stab the snake head in Li Huang's crotch, leaving it with no chance to bite. Although the sharp dead branches did not cause any harm to Li Huangzhao, the ruthlessness of the other party when he stabbed the dead branches almost scared him out of a heart attack.

After this farce, the others also woke up, and Ziyuan couldn't help but smile when he saw the red marks on Li Huang's trouser legs, and turned his head away.

"Laughing fart! I want to change my pants too! ”

"Okay, okay, let's just don't see it. When I was on duty, I studied the Archon's map, which seemed to indicate where we were, in addition to the place names. Su Qin took out the map he got yesterday, and in addition to two conspicuous markings, it also marked the locations of several nearby big cities like ordinary maps. At the same time, according to Su Qin's judgment, the four small dots gathered together should be the marks that represent them.

"If we were on horseback, we wouldn't have been able to get to Cairo before we ran out of supplies. But you see, there's an oasis about twenty kilometers from where we are. I'm not sure you'll find food, but you'll probably find water. If we were to be on a normal basis, it would take us about two to three days to get there. These dry food can last for about five to seven days if you save a little food. So after replenishing the fresh water, we had to rush here as much as we could. ”

Su Qin pointed to a location not too far from the oasis.

"Here?"

"When I used to travel to Cairo, the locals told me that the bazaars have been around since the 198s. Ziyuan, what style of rifle do you have? ”

"I don't know much about old-fashioned firearms, because they are rarely used. But I still recognize this one, after all, it's a first-generation short rifle. Lee Enfield Magazine Short Rifle, Batch Survival Should Be ...... Well, I think about it. Ziyuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then gave a rough answer: "Okay, I can't remember the specific time." However, it should have appeared during the First World War. ”

"In that case, though it is not certain to what age the final consul threw us into. But judging by the year of the gun, that bazaar should have appeared. On the premise that there is no city nearby, I will set my next destination after arriving at the oasis. How is it? ”

"I'm okay with that." Li Huang was the first to raise his hand, and the previous discussion made him feel that he couldn't interject at all. However, the street philosophy told him that it was the right choice to listen more and do less at this time.

"Wait, how do you judge the direction?"

"I have a compass."

Sue patted the compass pinned to the strap of her backpack and turned over to her horse and began to orient herself. Suddenly, he felt the horse's back sink, and when he turned around, he saw Yumi also jumping on his horse. The high school girl nodded expressionlessly, but said nothing else.

"Okay, let's get out. All the way north. ”
