Invade the World Chapter 377

   Chapter 377 Time Reverse

  I think, there are some things that I cannot do.

   The girl hugged her unconscious lover, looked up and looked at her friend who was still hanging in the air with her eyes closed like an angel. Her sight became dazed for a while.

The sky and the earth are covered in gray, the huge pitch-black void in the sky is spinning like a vortex in the deep sea, and dozens of tornado-built walls encircle the land with a radius of more than 100 kilometers; and above the wilderness, there are only three young men, one man, two women, and three young men. traces.

  Go to a person's inner world to save her "heart" - this is really something that you can't do yourself. In Zhu Qingyue's view, this is far more surprising than the super power of space transfer and the monster with the power to destroy the city; only Xu Xiangyang can do this in the world.

   However, that means…

   He chose to be her hero, and now there is no one who can speak with him.

   No one could encourage her, comfort her, or even watch her; she would be alone in this corner of the world.

   Can't do anything other than hold him and look at her.

  Zhu Qingyue originally thought that she had long been used to loneliness.

   Since her father left, leaving only her seriously ill mother, she is used to living alone, taking care of herself and life alone. And this kind of life has not changed after her mother left. She stubbornly weaves lies about the family day after day and deceives everyone until she even forgets herself.

On every quiet night, the girl went home alone with her schoolbag on her back, walked through the empty corridor, hummed a tune, chopped vegetables and cooked in the kitchen, delivered medicine, water and meals to her mother's room, and finished it by herself After dinner, clean up the tableware for two people, then do laundry, sweep the floor and other housework, and finally take a bath, do homework, go to bed... And all these activities are completed in silence and darkness.

   That kind of life is naturally lonely, and even terrifyingly distorted in the eyes of others. No matter how accustomed she is and how sweet she is, Zhu Qingyue actually knows the taste of loneliness from the bottom of her heart.

Otherwise, she would not have been consciously or unintentionally looking for her "similars" among her classmates. After realizing that the other party suddenly got happiness that she could not imagine, she couldn't help but approach, like a moth fluttering. Fire thing to come.

   For those who have gradually become accustomed to the light, the comeback of darkness is always unbearable——

   Zhu Qingyue is in this mood right now. She sat cross-legged, put her lover's head on her knees, and sighed deeply, realizing that she was really alone at the moment.

   "When are you coming back?"

  Her fingers slid lightly on the boy's lips. The girl leaned over and "booed" his cheek.

   "When you come back, remember to bring Xingjie with her..."

   Halfway through, Zhu Qingyue laughed to herself.

   "Forget it, I definitely don't need to remind me about this kind of thing."

  The girl lowered her head lower, and her voice gradually became inaudible. .

   "Come back soon, Xiangyang."

   It was pitch black before his eyes.

   After Xu Xiangyang came back to his senses, the sound of "crashing" of waves hitting the coast sounded in his ears, one after another, as if it were never ending.

   He didn't know the spatial orientation, couldn't see up, down, left, right, and after wasting a while (although he couldn't feel the passage of time either), he finally realized that he was probably standing somewhere.

   As if everything around him was floating upside down in the void; and when he realized in a trance that "he might be standing on a beach somewhere", his feet sank to the ground.

   He tried to blink, but he couldn't even tell whether he had his eyes open or closed. Only the wetness mixed with the rough touch from the soles of his feet reminded him of his current situation.

   That's right, this is what Xingjie once described to him...

In front of    is the Sea of ​​Chaos, where Xiao An and other monsters were born.

  Xu Xiangyang worked hard to let go of the anxiety in his heart and tried to spread his psychic abilities.

   But here is different from the real world - just like the principle of radar is to irradiate the target by emitting electromagnetic waves and receive its echo to determine the spatial information of the target, if there is no receptor feedback, people cannot recognize the outside world.

   Xu Xiangyang is now in this situation. Because the darkness around him was too vast and thick, the psychic ability he released was like throwing a pebble into the abyss, and he couldn't even hear the echo.

  Although no threat was found, the sense of unease in his heart lingered.

but……

  Xu Xiangyang took a deep breath.

no problem, no problem.

   This situation was within his expectations.

   In order to save Xingjie, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​flames in front of him, he has to bite the bullet. This level of obstruction is nothing at all.

   "Which direction are you going?"

  Like the boundless darkness walking in the universe, he floated forward like a ghost and fell into a daze.

  —until a warm light flickers ahead.

   The flame was very small, only the shape of a flame, in Xu Xiangyang's eyes, it was as illusory and ethereal as plankton. But for him at the moment, this is the only beacon that can point the way.

   He tried hard to get close to the place, but he couldn't get up to speed, like swimming in a paste. But the darkness itself is empty and void, without any resistance, so the feeling is more like...trying to run myself in a dream.

   In fact, without the down-to-earth material world, people really cannot run fast. Xu Xiangyang's consciousness seems to be caught in a world where the camera is slowing down, and his subjective will drives him forward.

   The lights in the distance were still floating, and the candle light the size of a soybean swayed gently. No matter how close he was, it seemed that it had never gotten bigger.

   At the same time, Xu Xiangyang can clearly feel that his psychic ability is constantly weakening...

Of course, channeling will cause a heavy burden and wear and tear to people's spirits, but because Xu Xiangyang's ability is unusually strong, and he will hardly feel fatigue in the process of normal use, so this kind of weakness is his first experience, for a while. Panicked.

   After he calmed down, he quickly understood the reason:

   Now there is no reality as a comparison, he acts in a pure "conscious body" state, so no matter how slow the flow of spiritual power is, it will become the only indicator in this darkness.

   And this road is too far away, he can't tell the years in a trance, maybe he has been walking for more than ten years at this moment.

  Once his current conscious body weakens to a certain extent, he is destined to be unable to return to his own body, and he will be completely lost in this vast world until it dissipates into fog and becomes the tiniest part of the darkness.

……I see.

   In fact, there is no need for traps at all, and there is no need for ambush by monsters. The bleak world itself is the most terrifying hell.

  It is too vast, big and empty, the faint candle-like flame in the distance, maybe it is just a mirage, its own illusion, the other side beyond reach.

   It disdains to create danger, but maintains its self-state forever, just waiting for outsiders to perish in the never-ending journey.

  ... Maybe even this kind of thought is self-indulgent, after all, who else can come in this kind of place except me.

Xu Xiangyang only thought about it for a while, and then he felt that his way of thinking had become a little confused, as if he had fallen into a state of half-dream and half-awake early in the morning; then he noticed that the structure of his conscious body had curled up into a small ball. ball.

   "Xingjie, I..."

  Xu Xiangyang seemed to be drunk. He didn't feel the slightest bit of fear when he was about to go to the end of the road and lose his soul. Instead, the surging emotions in his heart were burning like flames.

   "I'm here to see you!"

   he shouted loudly.

The size of the gentle candlelight in the distance has not changed at all, but at this moment, an extremely powerful attraction erupted. The world in the dream seemed to hear him shouting the name of his master, drawing him into a deeper vortex. go--

  Xu Xiangyang felt as if all the bones in his body were broken, melted into a semi-solid state, and then roughly stuffed into the washing machine.

  Fortunately, he didn't have a body at the moment, so he couldn't feel the pain, but after a period of unbearable spinning, his feet landed again.

   When the darkness dissipated, Xu Xiangyang found that his field of vision suddenly became narrow, and the boundless wilderness turned into a boxy room.

   This time, it seemed that he was in a place where people lived... He didn't have time to check the surrounding environment carefully, his eyes were attracted by the figure lying on the bed, and he just stared blankly.

   It was a little girl with braided horns, her eyes closed, and she slept soundly. The girl's face is round and cute. The corners of her pink lips are pouted, and there are traces of saliva around her mouth. She smashes her mouth from time to time. Two braids are spread out on the pillow. A pair of chubby hands and feet stick out of the quilt, posing in a four-legged posture, look. She doesn't seem to sleep well.

   The first time he saw the little girl lying on the bed, he was stunned, and he didn't recover for a while.

  Although it was "the first time we met", this familiar feeling came from the bottom of my heart...

   He knew he would never admit he was wrong. His eyes were fixed on the face of the girl lying on the bed, and he refused to let go.

  Today is destined to be an extraordinary night for Lin Xingjie, a little girl who just entered the first grade of elementary school.

   That night, in the middle of the night, she went to bed early, slept soundly, grinned from time to time, and laughed silly because she dreamed of not going to school tomorrow, and the saliva almost soaked the entire pillowcase.

  Lin Xingjie's family lives on the outskirts of the city, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and also has a distance from the neighboring village areas.

   There are several households scattered around, usually no one disturbs the cleanliness, and when night falls, it is even more silent.

   Aside from the roaring of **** and dogs and the "roaring" of the tractor from the direction of the village, all that was left were the restless chirping of insects in the bushes.

   Such a leisurely life has created a little girl's innocent and carefree mentality. She has always eaten and slept well, and she does not need her parents to urge her to eat and sleep, which can be said to be very worry-free.

   However, as mentioned in the preface, this is an unusual night, and it may even become an opportunity to change her life.

   Maybe it was because this afternoon, the little girl encountered something incredible: she walked into her father's basement for the first time.

   Although nothing happened afterwards, everything seemed to be nothing unusual. But she was already used to this place, but now her curiosity arose again from the bottom of her heart:

   "If there's nothing in it, what the **** is Dad doing behind closed doors? I remember, if I'm not mistaken, there's a door in the basement that leads to something deeper..."

   Before going to bed, Lin Xingjie had this idea in a daze; in the second half of the night, her dream seemed to have changed and began to take on a vague form.

It was like a radio interfered with by radio waves, some kind of turbid, indistinct substance, exuding cold air, quietly crawled into the room, crawled onto the bed, crawled to the side of the pillow, and was about to get in through the ear hole. , all the way to the brain...

  Lin Xingjie woke up abruptly, clutching the quilt tightly with her small hands, sweating profusely.

   She thought she was having a nightmare,

   But that gloomy fear did not seem to disappear with the awakening of consciousness.

  Whenever people feel scared, their first reaction is always to run to the bed and hide themselves under the covers. The thick quilt is like the strongest and warmest enchantment in the world...

But at this moment, even this move had no effect. Lin Xingjie grabbed the quilt, her hands and feet were stiff, she didn't even dare to take a breath, her eyes were wide open, and she stared at a corner of the room, to be precise. ——

   is by her bedside.

   There is something "something" that is standing so close now that she can even feel "that person" staring straight at her...

   Grabbing his heart by this amazing fear, Lin Xingjie finally couldn't help crying.

   "Dad... Mom... Dad! Save me!"

   She shouted piercingly and inarticulately. After the quiet and peaceful night was broken, Mom and Dad Lin hurried upstairs before even putting on a coat. For a time, the family of three fell into chaos.
