Chapter 10: Return to the Wilderness (Part II)
This trip to the wilderness area, without the accompaniment of the military team, there were only three manned helicopters, hovering and stopping on a piece of ruins.
Walking out of the hatch, Lin Zihan's eyes looked around, and he recalled the sky-high white light in his mind, the deafening explosion, which could not be dispersed for a long time.
"Do you want to be together?" Yuan Shu stepped forward and asked.
After the painful lesson of the wilderness area last time, the military department conducted a comprehensive reconnaissance of the periphery of the wilderness area, and found many large groups of fierce beasts, as well as a few fierce beast leaders whose strength was close to the lord level.
"No, I want to be alone."
Lin Zihan refused Yuan Shu and Chen Ling's invitation, and walked alone on top of the ruins of the wilderness area without forming a team. The situation of that day is vivid, and Lin Zihan will never forget the scene at that time, the hordes of fierce beasts.
Above the wilderness, rivers of blood flowed and roared. That scene will remain in Lin Zihan's mind forever, and he will never forget it in this life.
On this trip to the wilderness area, Lin Zihan already had his own plan, and he needed to do it alone, and he couldn't involve others anymore, because Lin Zihan didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong, and he was gambling, betting that his luck would not be bad this time.
Originally, even if there was no assessment, Lin Zihan would have chosen to come to the wilderness area once to understand the regrets in his heart and solve the doubts in his heart.
Most of the original high-rise buildings have become ruins, only a few broken floors, and they are still standing in the wilderness area, which is the core of your battlefield at that time, looking at that deep pit, Lin Zihan's heart is not a taste.
"I don't know if I'll find anything." Looking at the deep pit, Lin Zihan walked down slowly, surrounded by a scorched earth, exuding a burnt smell, like egg fried rice made by Wu Kexin.
Walking slowly down the deep pit, Lin Zihan stepped on the hard scorched earth, looking for it between the black scorch.
It's just that there is nothing but scorched earth, only a piece of charred black soil, which exudes the smell of earthy and burnt.
That's right, the shock wave alone is enough to flatten the surroundings, and how can there be anything left in the core of this explosion, and it is already good to have a piece of scorched earth.
"Looks like there's nothing to find here, so let's look elsewhere." Lin Zihan jumped out of the wasteland, stood on the edge of the pit, and swept over a broken wall around him.
Looking at the ruins around me, I was a little hesitant in my heart, if one day, when I needed to choose between my life and death and the overall situation, would I be like Wu Jianming, sacrifice my life and die for the country, and my bones will wither.
Under the illumination of the sun, a flash of light in a corner shook Lin Zihan's eyes.
"It's not like there's nothing left at all." A few steps away from the place where the sun sparkled.
Between the black scorched earth, half of a pocket watch is revealed, a hardcover pocket watch, the surface of which is intricately polished with diamond facets, reflecting a few rays of light like a tiny mirror in the sunlight.
Through the diamond crystal on the hardcover pocket watch, Lin Zihan's incredible face was reflected.
Lin Zihan squatted down and carefully took out the pocket watch left behind by the explosion from the wasteland. In the aftermath of the explosion, several diamonds had fallen off, and the bracelet of the pocket watch was nowhere to be found.
"It's a good bonus to have a pocket watch left." Lin Zihan put the pocket watch in his hand, weighed it, opened it, took a look, and put it in his pocket.
Lin Zihan, who put away the pocket watch, left the pit area in a few steps, where there was only a wasteland, except for the pocket watch that was deliberately protected, I am afraid that there would be no remaining objects.
Walking out of the wilderness area, Lin Zihan soon came to a road, last time he was lost here and entered the illusion, although the illusion came out, but he had not yet found the root of the illusion.
"I don't know if it will be the same result this time." Thinking of the demons that Yan Yaoqing said, Lin Zihan still had lingering palpitations, after that time, he would dream of the same scene almost every day, and it really didn't look like a dream at all.
Walking into the corridor, a fishy smell came, and the ground was full of white bones and rotting flesh, and blood pooled on the ground.
On the top of the road, water droplets fall, and the sound of water droplets is like a lullaby. Walking into the corridor, Lin Zihan looked around, that feeling of grogginess, his limbs were soft, as if he was walking on cotton.
"It seems that the feeling this time is clearer than last time." Lin Zihan muttered to himself.
This time, the feeling is very clear, it comes from the feeling of mental powerlessness, that kind of consciousness is gradually blurred, and gradually lost himself, Lin Zihan clearly perceives that he has walked into the illusion but has not struggled.
Passing through the corridor, among the ruins, there was a clear sound of footsteps, from far and near, gradually becoming clearer.
"You're here." Lin Zihan looked at the figure that appeared in front of him, a familiar and unfamiliar figure, slowly walking out of the white mist, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the wilderness in the ruins.
"You know I'm coming?" Wei Mengying was very surprised, with a puzzled expression on her face, looking at Lin Zihan in front of her, her eyes were full of panic.
Looking at Wei Mengying's expression, Lin Zihan's heart didn't know what to do, the joy of reunion after a long absence, or the guilt that was difficult to face? It is only in the illusion that this unreachable face can be seen.
Maybe the familiar faces in this fantasy have always been in the depths of their memories and have never been forgotten, or they are unwilling to admit it in their dreams, so they can only see vague figures.
It is only in this illusion that we can truly see it.
"I know, maybe I should solve this damn illusion with one sword, but even if it's an illusion, I can't do it." Lin Zihan shook his head, it seemed that he still couldn't overcome his demons, and he had to live in a nightmare after all.
"If you don't mind, go outside." Saying that, Lin Zihan ignored Wei Mengying, or his own demons, and walked to the top of the building.
In this wilderness that was not affected by the explosion, there was a decent high-rise building, Lin Zihan didn't think much about it, and walked up slowly, relaxed, not worried about being stabbed again.
Wei Mengying didn't know when, but she also appeared on the roof.
Sitting on the balcony on the top of the building, Lin Zihan stretched out his legs and swayed in the wind in mid-air. Looking at this wilderness area, the spring breeze is bathing, there is still a bit of green, and the overgrown weeds also add a bit of vitality to this desolate place.
Looking at Wei Mengying, who was sitting not far away, neither of them spoke, and there was silence for a long time.
This is the demon in my heart, the fact that I don't want to face in my heart, and the person I fell in love with after only a few faces.
Maybe I can't face this face in my life, and I don't want to look directly at the past, which may be the pain of my life, the haze that will linger in my life.
After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Zihan still watched from a distance and didn't get any closer.
Even if he knew that this was an illusion, he didn't want to look directly into Wei Mengying's eyes, as if he couldn't be a killer, he didn't dare to look at it directly.
"Do you remember the last time we met?" Lin Zihan began to speak, "Last time I was in the park, how I wanted to tell you that I knew you and called your name, like a friend I hadn't seen for a long time." ”
Looking at the empty wilderness area, his eyes were melancholy, he glanced at Wei Mengying and didn't say a word.
This is like Lin Zihan talking to himself, saying the facts that he has always been unwilling to face.
"Even if it's impossible to be a lover, even if it's by your side, it's good to be a friend, but unfortunately, I don't even have the qualifications to be a friend." Lin Zihan continued to say to himself.
"Maybe in your world, there has never been my existence, but for me you are a great gift, the only gift in this world that treats me well."
……
I don't know how long it has been, Lin Zihan is like a resentful woman, talking to herself for a long time. Wei Mengying didn't say a word, but seemed to be an audience, listening to other people's stories.
After chattering for a long time, Lin Zihan glanced at Wei Mengying, this was his own demon, how could he not know these things. I just found an opportunity to say these words, which was more like a comfort for myself.
"Almost, it's time for this illusion to end." After Lin Zihan finished speaking, he looked at the empty wilderness area, like his own empty heart.
With both hands on the ground, he jumped straight down, jumping from a tall building, without buffering or dodging.
With his feet on the ground, Lin Zihan fell to the ground, looked at the surrounding ruins, and looked at the roof of the building, "This time I still can't solve the heart demon after all." He patted the dust off his body and stepped on the rubble on the ground.
When I came to the wilderness area this time, I thought I was ready to face the demons in my heart, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't overcome the demons after all.
Wander through the wilderness area and the beasts around you let out a roar. The area where the fierce beasts were wiped out has long been divided by the fierce beast groups, and the land is the king.
"Whew~" A wolf howl pierced the silence of the wilderness area, and the wolf howl full of murderous intent seemed to be declaring war.
This wolf howl scared away many low-level fierce beasts around him, and even Lin Zihan couldn't calm down for a long time when he heard it, and his originally calm heart was startled by this wolf howl, which caused ripples.
"I met it, and it didn't seem appropriate to leave without saying hello." Lin Zihan smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth, and with the help of the cement pillar sticking out from the broken building, he came to the place where the wolf howl came from in the distance in a few steps.
A five-meter-long, black, shiny blood wolf stood proudly on the commanding heights of the entire wilderness area, a handful of wolf hair on his chest, fluttering in the wind, showing the power of the king, and his eyes scanned his subjects.
The blood wolf is the most bloodthirsty and killing group of wolf beasts, but it is also the most united group of fierce beasts, with strict hierarchies within the population, and the coercion of the wolf king is inviolable.
At this time, the roar of the Blood Wolf King was obviously a provocation to his dignity, and the blood wolves under his feet were so frightened that they lay on the ground, bowing their heads to the ground, waiting for the Blood Wolf King's orders.
Lin Zihan, who was hiding behind a broken wall, quietly poked his head out, the blood wolf group was not as numerous as the previous giant power demon ape group, only more than a hundred, more of them were low-level fierce beasts, and the blood wolf king was only S-level.
The most difficult thing to deal with is that the blood wolves have a strong sense of cooperation, are known for their speed, and once they are entangled, they will be dragged to death.
"If you can defeat the Blood Wolf King with lightning speed, maybe there will be a chance." Leaning against the wall, Lin Zihan calculated.
