Chapter Twenty-Four: Leave Something for It
Bright electric light flashed in the air, and the falling white glow shone on the ancient mirror, casting a snake-long shadow.
Alice, holding the ancient mirror, pursed her lips.
In this moment, she finally understood what the Lord of Truth wanted.
He wants to change everything, past, present, and future.
This "change" is rather ambiguous.
Changing to a good place is also a change, and going to a bad place...... It's also a change.
However, from the standpoint of the absolute order of the Lord of Truth, Alice thinks that it is most likely the former.
But what exactly does He want to change?
Where can the world change?
Alice was a little puzzled.
This is also normal.
It has been thousands of years since the cataclysm, and people have forgotten what life was like before the cataclysm.
This kind of "forgetting" is not simply lost in history, but a taboo that cannot even be mentioned.
TV, Internet, Beverages, Food ...... All these things are completely incomprehensible to people after the catastrophe, which is a pure blank for them.
They can know that "the world before the catastrophe is extremely beautiful", but no one can say what kind of beautiful method it is.
Probably, being able to read at will without worrying about pollution is already the limit of a good life they can imagine.
This is not how the world should be.
Chen Qing, who was outside the mirror, thought so in his heart.
He didn't think he was a good person, but at least, the world shouldn't be a black box with nothing but ink and no other colors like a thousand years later.
The wasteland after the cataclysm is even more boring than the wasteland recorded in the post-apocalyptic novels.
At least the wasteland in the novel can still eat good food and play football in your spare time, without having to worry about pollution in any activity like a thousand years later.
Such a world is also too sick.
So, in addition to treating yourself.
If he had the ability, Chen Qing wouldn't mind changing the world that had almost no light.
"But then again."
Looking at the mirror, Chen Qing's expression was a little weird.
Why when I said those words......
Is there going to be a vision like that in the sky?
Chen Qing in the ancient mirror saw it very clearly.
When his voice fell.
The whole world seemed to light up for a moment, and then the rolling thunder rushed like waves.
To say that this is a coincidence, Chen Qing does not believe it.
How can there be a vision that flashes so cooperatively after pretending to be forced?
If that's the case, then God can't help but be a little too popular.
Unless Chen Qing's words were themselves part of the forbidden knowledge, this led to the vision. And the place where this vision appeared was high in the sky, so he couldn't see any pollution.
Or......
"Someone staring at Alice?"
Chen Qing's eyes froze slightly.
Of course.
It may also not be human.
But in any case, this kind of peeping made Chen Qing a little unpleasant.
"It's a pity that I don't know where this celestial anomaly comes from."
Otherwise, I'll have to take a piece of 8K ultra-clear giant screen wallpaper with the end of the world and monsters raging, so that I can give you strength.
Thinking so, Chen Qing let out a sigh of relief.
"Let's look at the flame."
He refocused his gaze on the black figure opposite.
At this moment, the black figure was staying in place.
After a long time.
Its swirling mouth opened again: "No...... Understand ......"
Just as Alice thought.
Its level of intelligence is indeed very low, and it is completely unable to support it to understand such a long passage of Chen Qing.
But there is one thing it knows.
"You...... Want...... Doing great ......"
It looked at the ancient mirror seriously: "It's dangerous. ”
Although the black humanoid does not have a high intelligence, its intuition is surprisingly sharp.
At least it could feel from Chen Qing's words that the crisis and undercurrent seemed to be rushing through a torrent.
After saying this, it shook its head: "Whatever it is...... You go. ”
"What should you ...... Left. Over here...... You are not welcome ......."
Looking at Alice, it said seriously, "Human...... Not Welcome...... Let's go. ”
"I ...... Control...... No...... Too long. ”
When he said this.
The black flames on its body, which were compressed to the extreme, quietly swelled up a little at this moment.
The invisible flames came out a little, and they raised their heads like small snakes.
See this scene.
Alice was so frightened that she held up the mirror and jumped back two steps: "Wait, I'll go!" Don't get angry, don't! ”
After saying this, Alice hurriedly said to the mirror: "Look, let's go first!" This guy doesn't look like it's going to last long! ”
In this regard, Chen Qing only frowned.
He looked at the black shadow and groaned: "What's the matter with you, before I left, you shouldn't have been like this." ”
When he saw it in the hospital, the flames weren't as dark as they were now.
Moreover, since it is an intelligent being.
So how can you not control a part of yourself?
Unless, something goes wrong with this part.
After hearing this.
The flames on the shadow shook a little.
It was as if its mood was also slightly shaken at this moment.
After a long time.
It then raised its head: "My ...... Wrong way......"
"I ...... I was too ignorant when I was born. I was induced to choose ...... Unsuitable, food. ”
"If it weren't for your ...... I'll get sick. ”
As he spoke, it reached out and gently pressed the gold coin on its chest.
"However, it is better if you are sick." It whispered.
"You really want to change...... Let's meet with my old self. ”
The black figure looked at Chen Qing: "Leave it ...... A little something. ”
"Give it ...... A word of advice. ”
With that, it turned and walked into the shadows.
The black flame became its barrier, allowing its form to blend into the night without hindrance, like clear water blackened by ink, bound by gravity and falling into the mire.
For no reason, Chen Qing felt that the back seemed to be a little sluggish.
This made him can't help but have a twinkle in his eyes.
After a long time.
He gently lifted the mirror in his hand and placed it on the shelf.
At the same time, he said to the mirror: "Rest well in the neighborhood and heal your injuries." ”
Hearing this, Alice, who was secretly running away with a mirror, almost shook her hand.
She held up the ancient mirror steadily: "You mean ......?" ”
Chen Qing did not answer directly.
He just picked up a piece of clothing from the hanger next to him and draped it over himself.
"I'll be away for a while."
His eyes were deep: "There are some deals, it's time to plant the seeds in advance." ”
As he spoke, he straightened the folds of his clothes.
He was going to do something.
"Sequence 2 is an extraordinary creature."
Locking the door of the warehouse, Chen Qing muttered to himself: "If you can't get some benefits, wouldn't it be too much of a loss." ”
"If I can't keep it all, I can have a Sequence 2 tool man next?"
If that were the case.
Then he could walk sideways in the wasteland.
Thinking of this, he tightened his clothes and melted into the night.
