Chapter 21: The Ninth Backtrack
[Talent has taken effect, Immortal Contract has been recorded, currently 6 times]
Bai Yu's face turned even paler, he took a deep breath, took a sip of water, and moistened his throat.
"Go on." He said.
Officer Liu couldn't stand it anymore: "Young man, are you playing with your life here?" ”
"I'm okay." Bai Yu gestured to a weak scissor hand.
He cast a defiant glance at the Memory: "Again?" ”
Listening to the voice, you knew that the memory was a young man.
Since he is a young man, how can he stand this kind of grievance?
The other party's dog head dances under the tower in front of him, and he can't bear not to give me a set of qwer directly? Unless you really quit.
This is called a dignified and upright conspiracy!
The memornesian also accepted the challenge: "I'm going to be a little heavy-handed, and it's in vain to keep repeating it." ”
Bai Yu nodded heavily and met the memory master's gaze.
……
Zhou Liu had just finished the call, she rubbed her eyebrows, looking a little tired.
There are still no clues, and the intelligence from all sides has been circulated, and even then the coordinates of the shadow world cannot be found.
She picked up the teacup, noticed that it was already cold, and got up to make a cup of tea.
When I came to the hallway, I saw a group of people gathered in front of a door.
"What are you doing here?"
"Ah, Team Zhou." An officer hurriedly stepped out of the way.
"What are you looking at?" The cat's ears on top of Zhou Liu's head trembled.
"It's nothing, it's just memory backtracking."
"What's so strange about memory backtracking?"
"It's not uncommon to have ordinary memories going back, but the problem is that this is the eighth time."
"What!"
Zhou Liu was startled, she immediately scolded the crowd and came to the interrogation room, looking through the single transparent glass window, she could see that the memory master's face was flushed and Bai Yu's face was pale.
The two of them seemed to be in the middle of a wrist wrestling competition, each holding back a bad breath.
"It's the eighth time, and young people are just full of energy."
"Not awake yet?"
"Not yet."
As the officer in charge of the record was talking, a hand reached over and snatched the record, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a stiff face.
Zhou Liu quickly flipped through the content of the record, and after reading it in more than ten seconds, she slapped the table heavily: "It's just nonsense!" Eight consecutive memory regressions, not turning him into a vegetative state? ”
Officer Liu smiled dryly and said, "Young people are not sensible......"
"Young children are not sensible, and your group of professional interrogation departments are also following Hu?" Zhou Liu glared, if something went wrong, she would definitely take the blame.
Officer Liu added helplessly: "This young man is not talking about classmate Bai, but a memory master...... He is also a young man who has just participated in the internship, and he has no technology, but he is more impulsive and excited. ”
Zhou Liu put his hand on his forehead: "Hurry up and stop me, go quickly." ”
"I'll go." Officer Liu couldn't stand it anymore.
He had just pushed open the door, and Bai Yu had just woken up.
[Talent has taken effect, Immortal Contract has been recorded, currently 8 times]
He covered his forehead, inhaled the cool air, and his face became more and more pale.
The light in the memory man's eyes dimmed a lot at this time.
"How does it feel?"
"It's not bad, I'm okay!" Bai Yu patted his cheek: "What about you?" ”
"Hehe, don't underestimate my professional ability." The Memorist raised his head, took a deep breath and sighed, "Today is my chance to break the record, I have never worked nine times in a row in one day. ”
"Me too, no one has ever made me dream nine times in a row in one day......"
Bai Yu wiped his nose...... can be repeatedly teased by Su Ruoli, it cannot be said to be a psychological shadow, it can only be said to be an alternative spiritual enjoyment.
The two looked at each other, and there was a little more sympathy in their eyes.
"Again?"
"Come again!"
Although both sides were mentally exhausted, they were still fighting high.
The atmosphere lit up.
"it! Stop me! Officer Liu rushed in and slapped the table: "Are you going to go directly to the hospital's luxurious morgue?" ”
Bai Yu's face did not move, as if he had not heard the other party's stop at all.
His eyes were burning, and although his face was pale, his expression was resolute: "I must go back to the end of my memory today, please don't hinder my ......!" ”
Officer Liu was imposing, he was already a good man, and he persuaded angrily and anxiously: "Why do you have to fight so hard? Let's take a break, even if I come back tomorrow. ”
"Time is running out." Bai Yu repeated in a low voice: "Time is running out......"
This sentence made everyone look stunned.
Time is running out.
All students have been missing for more than three days.
If it continues to delay, the rescue will become more and more difficult, and the probability of survival will become more and more remote.
In terms of anxiety, of course, the night watchmen in the Long Night Division are more anxious, but most of them are not happy to act, they will not show it, and they will swallow their anxiety and pressure silently, but they will never express it.
Everyone has a scale in their hearts, if it is not for a passion, who would choose a long night division with a very high risk factor to serve, and the fact that emotions will not be expressed does not mean that there is no flame in the heart.
After hearing this repetitive sentence, Zhou Liu, who was a little numb after three days of suffering, also felt a heavy impact on his chest, and the Honglu bell was roaring, making her feel a torture from her conscience and a shock from the depths of her soul for a long time.
An ordinary high school student can work so hard for his classmates at the same time.
It is impossible for him not to know the danger of continuously recalling memories, and it is impossible for him not to realize that so many memories regression has no effect, and it is likely to be futile to continue.
There are reasons why I have to do this. In order to search for even the slightest clue, he forced himself to face the psychological shadow again and again.
Not because of how powerful he is, or because of how talented he is, it's just that it's all he can do and just want to do it the best he can be.
The strength of willpower to remain unwavering despite being suffering from aphasia is truly amazing...... It is precisely because he is just an ordinary high school student that it is so shocking.
Zhou Liu held the microphone, and the words that he stopped for a while were stuck in his throat and couldn't be spoken.
It's for his good to stop him, but is it really right?
Didn't he trample on the young man's determination?
She fell into hesitation and entanglement, and then became silent and embarrassed...... For the first time, I felt as if I had done something wrong, and I shouldn't have let him be so reluctant in the first place.
Officer Liu couldn't speak, he raised his hand several times and put it down, neither slapping the table nor leaving.
The atmosphere was somewhat deadlocked.
At this time, the memory master laughed, and the laughter seemed to be extremely cheerful.
"I'm not wrong."
"I knew you had this decision for a long time."
"Then, today I will also sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman!"
He opened a small bottle of blue drink and drank it down in one gulp.
The slightly dim light in his eyes became even more dazzling, becoming extremely hot, and even emitting a deep blue.
The memory master clapped his hands and drank in a low voice, the light in his eyes turning like a spiral: "This is my last spiritual power!" Dream me up! ”
……
【Ancient Relic: Golden Eagle Claw】
【One-Star Heroic Spirit: Eagle King Beast】
[Status: Hologram]
【Contract Failed】
[The remnant of the Heroic Spirit has been returned to history]
【Heroic Spirit Pact has been logged in, a total of 9 times】
"For the ninth time." Bai Yu was inspired.
Nine times of memory regression, you only need to do it again to be able to conclude the Heroic Spirit Contract.
This time it's the Beast's Heroic Spirit...... I don't know if it's bad luck, Bai Yu only drew an afterimage of a two-star Heroic Spirit, and he has not yet come into contact with a higher-level Heroic Spirit, nor does he have a two-star full-shadow Heroic Spirit.
He had some regrets.
Bai Yu returned to the classroom, and a dark shadow appeared on the ground, no one had time to escape, and everyone was swallowed by the shadow world.
Feeling the feeling of falling, Bai Yu thought that it was time to wake up from the dream.
The usual memory backtracking can be interrupted directly here.
He had tried eight times before, and each time the memory regression would break the moment it appeared in the shadow world.
Once there, the memories are completely lost, and it always feels futile to keep trying.
Merely......
"This time it seems to be a little different......"
He followed the memory and went back in time.
Suddenly, there was a sense of pause...... It's as if the computer has finally run a calculus on a node that is extremely prone to getting stuck.
Bai Yu fell to the ground, and it was pitch black all around, and he felt the wall and stood up.
At this time, Bai Yu's limbs were no longer under his control, he seemed to be experiencing an animation, and the picture was a rehearsal that had already been decided.
One step at a time, go forward.
In a pitch-black world, all the scenery he saw was pitch black, just varying degrees of darkness.
He didn't dare to open his mouth to shout, Bai Yu could feel his hands and feet trembling, in fear......
Desperate to find his companion, he mustered up the courage to move forward and aimlessly searched for his classmates' whereabouts.
I don't know how long I walked, I don't know how far I went.
He walked through a long, dark corridor in what appeared to be a plaza in front of him, with a six-story commercial building at the end of the square.
He walked towards the mall, cautiously moving forward, not encountering anything along the way, as if he felt like he was being stared at by something.
The fear made the body tremble naturally.
He walked forward slowly, entered the commercial building, and walked forward in the dark, in a place where there was no light in sight, he walked forward, and suddenly his palm touched something furry, some prickly, the thing was cold, like ice covered with needles.
He saw the furry thing turn around and slowly swell, elevated.
With a strange creaking sound, the thing spun around, and three pairs of blood-red eyes locked onto him.
A spider, a spider that is three meters tall.
Bai Yu's body stiffened, fear made his body betray his brain, his breathing was still, and he couldn't move.
Then, in a panic trying to escape, his steps were empty, and the stairs under his feet collapsed, falling downward, and he fell into a dark hole less than ten meters high.
Without light, he couldn't see what was beneath him, but he could hear sounds like a mass of wood crashing together.
Raising his hand to grab one of them, in the darkness, his eyes finally adjusted to the light, and he could see faintly......
A ...... held in both hands It was a pale, broken skull.
