Volume 2 Wakami Hana 14 Sleepwalking
Weird dreams.
Jian Chen couldn't tell who he was.
He stood in a castle-like church.
Empty lobby with high, pointed dome.
Strange statues stand quietly in the corridors and arcades, and no myth worships these strange statues, which look like mud pinched by children.
Round rose windows, glass domes......
Spiral staircase of gilded marble and white marble......
Probably a medieval, European-style Gothic church.
Jian Chen swore he had never been to such a strange place.
He stood in the center of the hall carved with mysterious patterns like a magic circle, as if some mysterious ritual was going to be performed.
Surrounded by an empty pilgrimage hall with a high dome that is not visible at a glance, and white jade spiral staircases on both sides lead to the sky, like the legendary Tower of Babylon.
For some reason, it felt familiar to him.
He didn't dare to act rashly, and looked out of the carved glass window.
The sacred cold light is folded into a colorful and mysterious brilliance by the refractive glass, as if the holy light comforts the world.
But there was no heaven out there, but a void.
Those faint lights are the gift of the stars.
Is this a sight to be seen in a quirky place, paradise?
Chen Jian looked at the top of the castle again, where there seemed to be a huge empty compartment.
Is it a place where choirs sing Bibles?
He felt something calling to him, empty, divine, ethereal.
He felt so familiar......
"Master...... Have you forgotten me? ”
Intense sadness and pain welled up from the bottom of his heart, and Chen Jian felt that it was difficult to breathe, and his vision in front of him was blurred.
The voice seemed to come from all directions, echoing in the church.
He fell to his knees, gasping for air.
"Ha-ha-"
Splitting headaches.
Who am I? Who am I!
He wanted to roar and ask questions, but he couldn't open his mouth anyway.
A small figure suddenly appeared in the blurred vision.
He reluctantly slowed down, propped himself up, and standing in front of him was a white-haired girl, petite and delicate, with her fair feet exposed, like a delicate handicraft, which must be a beloved object everywhere.
She turned her back to him, her small body was wearing a pleated dress embellished with tassels and stars, and the mysterious starry sky color matched with the holy pale hair was like a god descending into the world.
Jian Chen felt a little better, but the girl still turned her back to him.
A strong desire came over him, and he wanted to see her face clearly, and hugged her tightly.
It's like a moth to a fire, embracing the light and hope in a gloomy life.
He spoke hoarsely:
"Are you...... Who? ”
The girl did not answer.
He tried to take a step forward.
The girl also took a step.
The distance between them has always been not far or close.
He couldn't hold back any longer, driven by a strong desire from the bottom of his heart.
All fatigue and pain seemed to disappear, and he began to run.
But when he opened his hands and tried to embrace the girl, she dissipated like smoke.
He stood still.
At the top of the spiral staircase, it was as if something was waiting for him.
He walked slowly up the spiral staircase with a strange feeling.
The frescoes and refractions stared at and mocked him mercilessly.
Angels, devils, gods, humans, birds, trees.
All things, destiny among them.
A sense of sacred terror comes with the void of space.
He felt that every step was so heavy, as if he were walking towards a predestined fate.
He finally walked to the empty compartment on the top floor under the gaze of the divine relief.
There is a cross in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and behind it are thousands of stars and endless void.
The white-haired girl stood in front of the cross in a daze, stretching out her little hand and caressing the cheek of the man on the cross.
Jian Chen stood at the entrance of the cubicle, his eyes spinning.
Fire, stars!
Lightning, storms!
Pain and destruction go hand in hand.
The man on the cross......
Bloodstained White......
Pierced through the heart by a spear.
The lotus mark on the man's brow ignited a flame, entwined with lightning.
Jian Chen felt so familiar, that god-like man......
The dead gods opened their eyes, fierce and fiery, staring at him deadly.
Those eyes were full of anger and pride, full of high divinity, but there was no reason or emotion to speak of.
He felt so familiar that it was clear that he was just an ordinary person.
I like to play games, I like to read novels, and I like to watch all kinds of strange things......
How could you know such a god who killed the immortals and rebelled against the heavens?
Reason and impulse, divinity and humanity, insignificance and greatness, humility and nobility......
An impulse arose that made him unconsciously want to approach the proud god who had been pierced by the spear on the cross.
It's like a jade pendant that has been divided and wants to be reunited.
A low sobbing sound disrupted all thoughts.
The white-haired girl turned around, tears sparkling in the corners of her eyes.
Only then did Jian Chen see her face clearly.
A face that would be fearful for anyone –
The face is a void, flowing with a galaxy, which is the face of the universe.
There was a black star shining on the face of nothingness.
Tears flowed from the black hole-like eyes.
Gray hairs dance wildly, churches are broken.
The floor-to-ceiling windows burst open overwhelmed, and everything was ruined.
Jian Chen felt that he was about to be annihilated.
He felt a strong sadness accompanied by an irresistible destructive force rising from the girl's body, annihilating everything in its path!
Whether it is the stars or the gods, whether it is the void or the beings!
He heard countless wails and curses.
Like a demon who has destroyed the world, the girl weeps sadly, using her power to take revenge on the world that has made her miserable and disappointed.
Jian Chen felt his skin shriveled and his flesh disappearing.
He could only use his bony palm to clasp the gap in the tiles in the ground.
The girl stood in the void in a daze, behind her was the unruly god who had been pierced through her heart, and in front of her was an ordinary and unyielding little mortal.
Jian Chen had forgotten all the pain.
He wanted to hug this girl who seemed to have never met and seemed to have known her for a thousand years, and wiped away the tears and sorrows from her face.
But he didn't have the strength to go forward.
He yelled at the gods floating in the void behind the girl:
"Hey, are you just making her so sad?"
There was no answer, and the crucified God had no heart.
But God wept too.
The lotus mark in the center of his eyebrows flew out and landed on Jian Chen's forehead.
Jian Chen finally felt a trace of strength, and he used his body that had turned into white bones to rush through the chaos that destroyed everything in front of him, and opened his arms with two bones, as if to embrace the devil who destroyed the world in front of him.
It doesn't matter if you do anything wrong, even if you're covered in filth and sin, I don't care.
The divine self, the mortal self, spoke together:
"Not even time, space, reality, or even death can separate us!"
I don't want to die in silence, and I don't want to live alone!
Even if there is nothing left, there is nothing to fear with you by my side!
Just as he was about to hug the girl, the universe shattered.
Fate mocked him mercilessly:
Stop struggling.
......
"The operation was a success, you're already a girl."
The doctor in the white coat is serious nonsense.
Incandescent lamps, operating tables?
Jian Chen opened his eyelids slightly.
Lying on his own in a hospital bed.
It's so heavy......
He struggled to keep his eyes open.
Xia Xiaohua fell asleep on the edge of the bed.
The soft body is very quiet when I fall asleep.
It's like autumn leaves.
"Are you awake?"
The doctor removed the mask, revealing a delicate and small face:
"I'm Anna Calleloch Eva, you can call me Eva or Anna, I like people to call me Eva."
Jian Chen touched his head, a little overwhelmed.
Eva has long flaxen-colored hair, tied into a double ponytail at the back of her head, and her skeleton is typical of Soviet Russia, looking like a rag doll.
This cute little doctor waved his hand:
"Don't worry, it's not your waist, Mr. Irwin uses the [Righteous Pursuit] mode of [Roaming Trial], which is not lethal to humans~"
Jian Chen stood up, and wanted to ask something, but Eva had already gently led the door out.
Before leaving, she looked at him meaningfully:
"Wow, she looks like she's worried about you, and she brought you duck eggs and oysters, No, on the cabinet next to her."
There was silence in the hospital room.
Chen Jian looked at the duck eggs and oysters on the cabinet beside him.
Placed in an insulated box, the condition seems to be a bit bad.
"I don't think it's delicious......"
He chuckled softly and reached out to taste it.
This famous dish has even been on the official media.
Crack a small hole at the top of the duck eggshell, pour out the egg yolk, add the oyster meat, stir the egg yolk into it, and steam for five minutes.
It is known for its delicate meat quality and delicious taste.
It's still lukewarm.
Chen Jian carefully pinched one, for fear of disturbing the sleeping boss.
A small spoon evens out a spoonful, and the delicate oyster meat is combined with the egg yolk, which still looks quite good.
Jian Chen tasted it and felt a little strange.
"It's so salty...... Is this putting a ton of salt in it? ”
"That's because you guys have 10,000 tons of tears on their faces!"
Familiar voices, puffing out, very dissatisfied with guys who question their cooking skills.
Chen Jian looked back and saw that Xia Xiaohua had woken up.
He wiped his face, and sure enough, it was slippery.
So I'm still crying?
What is he grieving for?
Xia Xiaohua sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Jian Chen curiously.
The frozen tears made him look a little desolate.
"What's wrong with you?"
Jian Chen was silent for a while and shook his head:
"Nothing, a nightmare."
After saying that, he had no scruples, and ate duck eggs and oysters with a few spoonfuls.
"How's it taste?"
The girl star-eyed is looking forward to it.
Chen Jian was merciless:
"The level that won't starve."
“rua! Bastard! Isn't it good to give some compliments? ”
Xia Xiao was about to jump up.
Chen Jian scratched his head:
"But I always think you can see if you're lying, boss."
Xia Xiaohua suddenly quieted down, propped her hands on the hospital bed, propped up her head and looked at the window covered by the curtains:
"I've been studying for a long time...... Human cooking techniques are really complicated...... Even if you give the boss a face, it's okay to lie......"
She suddenly turned her head and stared directly at Jian Chen:
"I'm a psychic awakener, and the consciousness of ordinary people is a blank slate for me, I can hear what you're thinking, but fortunately you're not lying, hum, I hate betrayers and liars."
Jian Chen felt a little creepy, but fortunately he was innocent and didn't think anything wrong, otherwise wouldn't he be secretly scolded?
That's not right!
A cold sweat broke out on his forehead, realizing that the other party had heard it clearly.
Xia Xiaohua smiled slyly, and was a little lonely:
"It's not convenient to be able to do this, I can always hear the sounds around me, and when I walk in the crowd, I hear a lot of disgusting thoughts clearly, but they have a sanctimonious face, I think, if there are no lies, maybe the world won't be beautiful, everyone will show their true thoughts nakedly, it will be disgusting, right?"
She covered her eyes with her hands:
"Maybe lies are something necessary, ...... for humanity"
"But I'm still a little annoying...... After spending a long time with people, I like animals more, they don't have any idea of anything, it's real, it's pure, just like they look at the sun, moon and stars. ”
How out she is on weekdays, how lonely she is now when she is quiet.
Jian Chen suddenly wanted to comfort her, this innocent girl probably endured a lot of disgusting thoughts, maybe before coming to Abaddon, she was distressed by the gossip and dark thoughts of everyone around her every day.
Xia Xiaohua put down her hand, and there was a kind of confusion in her amber eyes.
She stared at the incandescent lamp and asked curiously:
"It's strange, you don't have a little youthful idea, eh, I'm not attractive?"
This kind of topic is too ambiguous, and as an old virgin and an old otaku, Chen Jian is a little unbearable.
yes, why don't you think that way?
Pure appreciation, well, maybe called lustful?
But never thought about that kind of thing......
A beautiful girl from the sky accepts herself as a little brother, shouldn't she work hard to become stronger and embrace the beauty?
Jian Chen looked at her face and remembered the elves in fairy tales.
He suddenly understood.
The other party is too beautiful, the beautiful is not like human beings at all, too perfect things, which makes him afraid.
Glass-like, perfect, flowers.
When you touch it, you feel like it's going to wither.
How can you deserve it?
Probably so, right?
He didn't know the real reason either.
Chen Jian always felt that there was something missing in his heart, that kind of thing was more important than life, and that emptiness could only be filled by one person.
That person is not a girl like the summer flower in front of you.
So who is that?
He remembered the white-haired girl in his dream.
That's familiar......
Have they ever seen it?
Those weird dreams......
"Hmm!"
Jian Chen felt as if his brain had been stimulated by something, and he couldn't think about it anymore, so he closed his eyes and opened them again, and it took a while to recover.
Xia Xiaohua looked at him with a strange gaze, her eyes full of surprise.
It's that kind of state again, and I can't see through it......
Jian Chen came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly at her:
"Probably boss, you're so beautiful, I don't think I'm worthy of it......"
didn't lie, and he wasn't good at lying, not to mention that the person in front of her was ineffective for her to lie.
Xia Xiaohua stretched her waist, and her soft figure was unthinkable in the small skirt.
She rubbed her eyes:
"Had a good night's sleep, I'll take your compliment!"
She squinted her eyes again and smiled:
"Later, you will have to go to the awakening ceremony, little brother, this girl, I will pinch my fingers, you will be able to make a splash, awaken super SSS-level abilities, and become a master! Hehe, I'll hug your thighs when I pour! ”
She blinked her eyes and made a playful gesture to Jian Chen:
"When you chase this girl, I can think about it."
"Aha......"
Jian Chen couldn't get used to her rabbit-like jumping thinking, it was really unpredictable.
But......
He clenched his fists.
Awakening?
Become a member of the extraordinary and explore unknown and mysterious realms.
Is...... I'm looking forward to it.
