Chapter 429: Foreseeing the Future: The Self That Failed in the Past
-- Instantaneous switch of time and space.
In the blink of an eye, I have come to a new world.
Crossing the ambiguous boundaries of time and space, from the real world to the illusory dream.
At the cost of paying more than half of his vitality and mental power, and the severe overdraft caused the body to age significantly, Xiao Lan successfully transformed just the right amount of magic power, locked the call on the other end of the contract and activated the reverse spiritism, and summoned himself to the nightmare world where the ghost king was.
Almost completely ready, no matter what tricks Freddy plays, he will capture the slightest but inevitable vitality and carve the way to happiness with his own hands!
But the ...... he faced Far more brutal than you think.
The moment you regain your senses, it's like you're in a dream.
It was as if he had been sucked into a black whirlpool, falling endlessly into a seemingly bottomless abyss, and after not knowing whether it was a second or ten thousand years, he found himself in a pipe-
The pipes were filthy, pitch black, and seemingly endless, and Xiao Lan could see many other pipes stretching out and side, but none of them were as large as this one, twisting, spinning, and straightening, and he was sliding down to the depths of the depths at this moment.
A second, a minute, or a moment, Xiao Lan could barely observe the time, only knowing that after a long time, the blurred darkness around her suddenly became extremely clear.
He slid straight out of the end of the pipe at high speed, adjusted his position in mid-air, and landed steadily on the wet floor of the stone tunnel.
(Has it arrived?) )
Xiao Lan, who stood up from the ground, first confirmed his situation. The aging of the severe overdraft did not disappear because he entered the dream realm, although he called back his strength in an instant, but he also found that his body had dried up to a point: his body could no longer withstand even the transformation of a demon in state one. The exact combat effectiveness that can be possessed is already one in ten.
Although the situation is very bad, it is not the end of the road.
Especially when he felt that the hole cards he had prepared were indeed alive, his originally somewhat restless heart suddenly calmed down.
- Yes!
At the same time, he had already looked around, and realized that the situation here was not unfamiliar to him.
Examining the black, sticky walls around him, he could tell that the room was definitely underground—but it was more like a dungeon than a room, and an eerie cold and terrifying atmosphere permeated it. Dark Gothic-style stone pillars and spires dotted all around, and the mouth of the pipe he slid out was intimidating enough from the outside, a huge statue of Freddy with teeth and claws......
No doubt. This is already Freddy's domain, the final battlefield that appears in the Ghost Street 7 movie.
However, the situation seems to be a little different.
The whole world in front of me is glowing with magnificent silver white, and the space is directly observed as if it were materialized. Both like flowing mercury. Like a flowing cloud.
And in the midst of this, something is happening.
When Xiao Lan confirmed the situation around him and was about to take the situation into his own hands, he suddenly turned his head as if he had been electrocuted, and then saw an absolutely abnormal thing at this moment-
From the gaping jaw of the Freddy statue, a familiar and unfamiliar figure slipped out again.
Pale hair that has lost its luster crawls up to the wrinkled dry face, deep-set but still bright eyes. And that visible conviction......
Xiao Lan will never admit that this person is ...... It's himself.
"Hey! You—! ”
The excessively abnormal condition made him sigh. Voices echoed through the dark tunnels.
But the other self didn't react at all, and fell to the ground with the same action as Xiao Lan just now, looked around vigilantly to confirm the situation, and then took a deep breath and ran in one direction, and directly passed through the middle of Xiao Lan's body standing in place halfway-
The old demon was stunned for a moment, and then felt a chill in his heart.
This anomalous fact cannot be observed by the people of this world...... It's a dream, right?
But this is originally a dream, why does this perception still occur?
Dream within a dream.
It is not a physical dream that can touch the world to interfere with, nor is it a perceptual dream that someone observes the world with his senses, but it is like entering a more illusory memory, like Harry Potter entering the world of memories seen in the meditation basin...... Or, rather, a future that he observes.
"-This, damn it!"
The situation was once again out of his control, and he didn't know what Freddy was paying attention to, but he suddenly had a sense of foreboding, but at this time, ...... He had no other choice.
Gritting his teeth unwillingly, he immediately took a step and caught up with his other self who had left.
Then, in an instant, he knew what Freddy was going to do—
After turning several wet corners along the way, the figure in front of him suddenly stopped, and when Xiao Lan ran forward, he understood the current situation.
Freddy, he showed up......
There was no special formation, and there was no strong deterrent, the ghost king was just standing on a high platform full of vines, looking down at the other Xiao Lan who had just rushed over.
But behind him, a space-time vortex that was visible to the naked eye emerged.
The crack in time and space emitted an unparalleled suction force, the surrounding ground and soil were completely crumbled and vacated, the floor and the broken walls were pulled over, Freddy who stood before that seemed to feel nothing, but at the center of the space-time vortex near the critical position, there was a person who was struggling to resist the incomparable suction, but under the effect of some special force, she was embarrassed to freeze in this terrible situation-
"Caroline!"
Coming from memory and reality respectively, the two Xiao Lan shouted in unison.
The real Xiao Lan jumped directly onto the high platform without saying a word, and Freddy couldn't see himself at all. He jumped into the vortex with a thick vine, trying to rescue the blonde beauty in front of him, but ...... He couldn't touch her hand.
I am not on the same world level. There is no way to interfere with the people of this world.
His outstretched hand was like a phantom, passing through Caroline's body, as if it were touching only empty air.
In an instant, Xiao Lan was stunned.
It's a dream, it's Freddy's conspiracy......
He told himself this in his heart, but at the same time another voice sounded: this is the future, this is the fate you will endure.
Freddy's plot may have been accomplished. Xiao Lan's heart was really messed up at this moment.
And the foreseen future is also continuing to develop step by step.
"Hey~ You're finally here, knight."
Silent.
"See this? Our princess is at the entrance of the cave, and if I'm not careful, she'll fall. ”
Silence continues.
"Uhh (sighs)...... Why didn't you say anything? If it's customary, shouldn't it be a "let her go" at this time? ”
Deathly silence.
But-
If you don't explode in silence, you perish in silence.
Instantly. A dark curtain of light instantly covered the entire space. Then a crisp sound of flesh being torn to pieces was heard, and then a familiar figure pulled a vine and jumped into the vortex, holding Caroline's hand exactly in the same position as Xiao Lan in reality.
But as he slashed Freddy, the power to keep Caroline in place was gone, and the space-time warp sucking instantly made Xiao Lan feel like her arm was close to tearing.
But if you can save her, what is such a little pain!
"Got you, Lorraine...... I'll pull you up!" ”
Hearing such a shout, Xiao Lan saw horror in Caroline's eyes. And immediately heard her shouting exclamation.
"Leave me alone, he's not dead! He's not dead yet! ”
Of course Freddy didn't die. In the realm, he was immortal, and Freddy, who had just been chopped into pieces, was slashed intact in place, and the claws in his hand were cutting through the vine one by one.
"Let go of your hand, as long as she is sucked in, the space-time vortex will disappear, otherwise you will be sucked in together~"
- How can you let go!
Thus, ushered in the doomed end.
Xiao Lan, who didn't let go in the end, fell into the space-time vortex together in the end.
Immediately afterward, waking up in an equally familiar world, the Necronomicon is invading in a big way, facing the age of Arthur, who is facing the end of death.
Not dead?
Coming back?
It's true that it's back, but ...... This is not good news.
His return led to the resurgence of the incarnation of death, and the necromancer, which was originally only a small sortie, immediately began to overwhelm the terrifying army.
Humanity is not ready, and neither is the Savior.
Therefore, the end is ushered in.
On the plains of despair, in the arms of the devastated Dark Knight, the blonde beauty closed her eyes forever, and there was no warrior around him who could stand up, and the dense necromancers only stared at the lone man with a void gaze......
How can such a future be accepted!
Can't interfere with any of everything, but Xiao Lan has exactly experienced all.
I don't want to admit it, I don't want to admit it, and I definitely can't admit it.
Wailing so on the plains of despair, everything around them slowly distorted.
Blankly looking around, he realized that he had just been able to slide out of the pipe, adjust his position in mid-air, and then land steadily on the wet solid floor of the stone tunnel.
There was no plain of despair of death, no silver ethereal, time returned to the moment he entered.
"Is this, this, ...... Is it a dream? ”
Whispering, Xiao Lan looked at his palm incredulously, everything was indeed very real, but there was no doubt that what he was touching now was the real feeling.
It must have been a dream, a future that could happen, a future in which he failed.
But now that you know why you failed, you can learn the lessons.
Looking at the passage that he had walked through, feeling the beauty waiting for him at the end, he secretly made up his mind in his heart-
- This time, I must save you! (To be continued.) )
