Chapter 50: The Smiling Man

Rocky lay quietly in the crystal coffin, he opened his eyes in the water, surprised to find that he was still alive and that he was still in the water. But this feeling of being alive was not pleasant, but fortunately his consciousness seemed to block out all the nerves of pain, and he only had a vague perception of his body, and he was slow to think that the only possibility that he was still alive was that he was not really cut off from oxygen. He lies in an ancient tank, soaked in a solution, but this solution cannot be real water, nor is it the product of a magician. When Li Xu took advantage of the convenience of human invention, he was really not afraid of slapping his face at all.

His thoughts gradually churned, he remembered that Li Xu threw him into the water to open his consciousness, and he also remembered that when he really gave up the shackles of consciousness, Li Xu did not really squeeze into his consciousness. On the contrary, Li Xu didn't know what he saw, and almost ran away without his armor. He followed him unconsciously, and in that void he always had to have a place to go, and as a result, he opened up Li Xu's world of consciousness. When he was just vaguely aware of this, he found that he was getting stronger and stronger in the consciousness of others, strong enough that he could replace Li Xu, and of course, he could also tear Li Xu apart, even if his own consciousness would also disappear with it.

He suddenly came to his senses completely, and truly realized that he was still alive, and he didn't know what happened to Li Xu. His eyes widened, and through the water, he saw the rough wall again, and the familiar smiling face in the corner of the wall. His memory space was clearer than ever, and he suddenly remembered the origin of the smiling face. That smiley face is not a symbol of a magician. He did see the smiling face, which was from a human anime movie, which was the logo of the Ghost in the Shell Guy Smiley.

He shuddered at the astonishing realization, and his consciousness raced. The obsidian tabletop is something that only ancient magicians use, and it's an ancient and traditional interrogation room. Why, then, would a magician use such a rough wall in his ancient glory? Unless the rough walls are covered with another illusion of splendor, others can see it, but he can't see it. All he could see was the rough wall, and the smiling faces on the wall, mocking the smiling men in the wizard world, they couldn't see either.

Roach knows that the blockbuster anime was made around the mid-nineties, which means that in the last twenty years or so, someone has come here and left this mark. The man was able to leave a mocking smile at the bottom of the hallucination, mocking the Mind Mages.

And what about him? What about Roach himself, who is it? He could hear whispers, whispering in his head, one louder than all the others, and it made his brain ache. The more vague the physical pain, the more pronounced the pain in the mind. Gradually, he couldn't hold back any longer, and he reached out to grab the edge of the crystal coffin.

The voice in his head screamed even louder, babbling and asking, "What the hell is going on?" What's wrong? He clutched the edge of the crystal coffin with all his might, pulling his weak body to the ground, and he felt like his fingers were about to break.

At this moment, "Roach! ”

The voice in his head was so directional that he couldn't help but tremble, and raised his head in confusion, his head showed out of the water, and he saw Zhao Zhiyan's frightened face. He suddenly realized that he had to kill Zhao Zhiyan first, otherwise Zhao Zhiyan would be desperate to kill him.

But his respiratory system suddenly began to work, the liquid in the crystal coffin mixed with his tears and snot flowed out, his almost shriveled lungs out of the amniotic fluid environment, and the stinging pain of the sudden inhalation of air made him scream. He didn't know if the moment the baby was born was so painful, but the child didn't seem to be as miserable as him, and he could barely figure out whether he was alive or dead at this moment.

The voice in his head also kept screaming, shouting "kill him", "kill him", and he unconsciously considered a few spells, thinking about whether to kill with a summoning weapon or whether to summon flames to burn people. Rocky, who was struggling to crawl out of the crystal coffin, was suddenly stunned, he suddenly realized that in fact, he didn't know such magic at all, he didn't know how to summon weapons to kill people, and he didn't know how to produce so many flames that burned people, these high-level magic were not in his cognition, and he never thought to understand it.

His movements froze, and he raised his head in confusion to look at Zhao Zhiyan, who was trembling all over his body for some reason, looking at him fiercely, but his changing eyes revealed that he had more fear than disgust.

Why is he so afraid of himself? Roach looked at him confusedly, and then saw Li Xu lying on the ground. Li Xu was motionless, and Roach couldn't tell if he was dead or alive. It was only at this point that he realized that what he had deduced was what had really happened, and it was at this moment that he truly accepted what had happened.

Zhao Zhiyan froze for a moment in his gaze, then raised his hand suddenly, and Luo Qi let go of his hand and rolled to the ground almost at the same time. The blow sent him so hard that there was a sharp pain in the ribs he had been injured a few days ago, and a throwing knife slammed into the crystal coffin above his head.

He had never had such a fast hand-eye ability, and even he didn't really see Zhao Zhiyan about to throw a flying knife at him. He just knew that Zhao Zhiyan's thinking was as noisy as noise, and he could see Zhao Zhiyan's thoughts.

He raised his head and looked directly at the frightened Zhao Zhiyan. He imagined that he was one with Zhao Zhiyan, and he imagined Zhao Zhiyan's hand pinching his own neck. This kind of imagination took a little effort at first, and Zhao Zhiyan kept screaming and struggling in his own hands. But in the midst of life and death, Rocky has a natural determination to concentrate and be strong-willed. When he saw Zhao Zhiyan pinching his neck, he just trembled, and he didn't even have time to appreciate the weirdness.

Zhao Zhiyan fell down two minutes later, Luo Qi didn't know if he was dead, he didn't even have the heart to care. Once again, he heard whispers, from the obsidian tabletop, and they persuaded him to touch the smiling man's emblem.

Knowing that he was going to do that, Roach stood up against the wall and reached out to touch the emblem.

With a shrill beep, the door opened to Qionglin's oldest interrogation room, and Roach staggered out.
