While Araya Zongren was fighting the two rituals, Yan Tiaoba secretly sneaked into the depths of the room. The temperature here gradually increased, and only the red sound of the iron plate and the magma-like light could be relied on.
The surrounding walls are lined with glass jugs containing brains. The floor is covered with long, thin tubes that lead to the building above.
This is already his second time here.
"What, this place is just like those cheap horror movies."
Tomoe smiled and walked along the wall. His target was in the center of the room.
If there really is a hell, then it must be here. Every day people live in the place where they died, and die in the place where they lived every day. In order not to be noticed by the outside world, they repeat the same thing every day. .
Isn't this hell?
Death, survival, death, survival are just closed wheels of choice, but human beings are just this closed wheel. There is no doubt about escape or stopping, a prison of the soul.
Every day when I wake up, I regard this repetitive ending that happened at night as a dream. Yan Tiaoba treats this reality as a dream every night.
He stopped and stared at the glass pot containing the brain in front of him. He stretched out his hand and gently placed it on it. There was a faint sound in his brain.
"Help--"
The brain in the pot said this, and he could vaguely see a tortured withered soul begging for him.
Yan Tiaoba smiled, because all he could do was smile.
Even he himself is nothing more than a puppet. The real Yan Tiaoba has died long ago. He is just a wandering remnant soul named [Xang Tiaoba]. Who can a remnant soul help? He can't even help himself.
This was also the reason why Araya Zonglian ignored Yan Tiaoba. He had never taken this doll seriously.
But if the only way I can help them is to help them escape, only complete death can break free from this spiral of contradictions.
He continued to walk forward and came to the center of the room. The temperature here had reached about fifty degrees. The skin of ordinary people would soon be burned by the hot water vapor here, but Yan Tiaoba no longer cared.
He looked at the glass jar in the center. There was also a brain suspended in it. There was no one's name engraved on the glass jar. This was the brain of an unknown person, and it was also Yan Tiaoba's goal.
Yan Tiaoba stared at the brain in front of him and took out the short knife that the woman gave him. As long as he pierced the magician's brain with this short knife, everything would come to an end.
He might have died because of this, but he agreed without hesitation. The dead should return to where they should go, instead of continuing to wander around the world.
For the sake of his father, mother, and the dead whose names are unknown, Araya Soren must die!
He stabbed the dagger hard into the brain in the glass jar.
Along with a dull sound, blood splattered everywhere.
Araya Soren suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the dagger with his palm. Even though his palm was penetrated, there was no other expression on his depressed face.
Yan Tiaoba wanted to struggle, but three barriers appeared around Araya Zonglian, tightly binding him within them, like a moth trapped in a spider's web.
"As expected, it still doesn't work..."
A bitter smile appeared on Yan Tiaoba's face. He watched Araya Zonglian slowly grasp his head with her palm.
"But I must kill you!"
He summoned up all the strength and courage in his body, poured everything into his right arm, stretched it forward with all his strength, and tried to pierce the glass jar behind Araya Soren.
"It's no use."
Araya Zonglian looked at the blushing Yan Tiaoba calmly. In his barrier, Yan Tiaoba could not do anything.
"Your origin is worthless, so you can do nothing."
His hand slowly exerted force, and with the blue light of magic power, the body and mechanism constructed into Yan Tiaoba began to disintegrate, and finally turned into ashes and disappeared into nothingness.
Da da da--
The sound of footsteps came from far and near, and Shiya chased after her. When she saw Hui Jin and the short knife on the ground, she immediately understood what had happened before.
Without too many words, they continued to fight together.
But this time the battle didn't last long. Shiki's eyes had already seen the jar containing Araya Soren's brain, and she activated her magic eyes without hesitation.
The glass jar and the brain inside were cut open immediately, and Araya Soren fell down helplessly.
The depressed expression on his face seemed to deepen. It was clear that what he wanted was right in front of him, but he was unable to get her.
Fine cracks spread rapidly along the walls, and the building shook violently. As Araya Soren was dying, the entire building began to collapse.
The two of them walked quickly towards the huge crystal. When she touched the crystal, it was like bubbles disappearing under the sun. The thick crystal disappeared. Mikael fell from it and caught it with quick eyes and hands. he.
Without too much hesitation, Shi held Mikael and rushed towards the elevator. When passing by the jars containing the residents' brains, she accidentally saw a familiar name.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, the Changing Source app! It is so easy to use. I rely on this to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. ]
She nodded slightly, as if saying hello and saying goodbye.
………
………
She carried Mikael to the garden outside Ogawa's apartment, where Aosaki Orange was already waiting for her.
"I feel relieved to see that you are safe."
Aozaki Chengzi smiled and waved, looking very happy. She looked curiously at Mikael in Liangli's arms, wondering what he was up to.
Suddenly, there was a burning sensation in her palm, as if someone was writing with red-hot iron wire. She lowered her head and looked at her palm, and sure enough, a line of words condensed with magic appeared on it.
Looking at these words, Aozaki Chengzi had a strange look on his face.
"Ahem..."
After a brief hesitation, she cleared her throat and said seriously.
"The reason why Michael is still in a coma is because he has been cursed and must be kissed by his true love before he can wake up."
"?"
Shidai frowned slightly. She looked at Aang Qi Chengzi and then at Mikael in her arms. She always felt that she was fooling her.
"Really, why should I lie to you."
Aozaki Orange spread his hands, seemed to have thought of something, and said confidently.
"Of course you can choose not to believe it, but if the seal of the crystal is opened and the curse cannot be broken, I'm afraid Mikael will die soon."
As if in response to her words, Mikael's skin gradually turned gray, which was a sign of a massive loss of vitality.
Shi Shi looked at Mikael, who was quickly becoming haggard in her arms, and couldn't help but panic. Without much hesitation, she pursed her lips and leaned down, and then she was hugged tightly by a pair of arms.
"Hmm..."
When she saw Mikael's smiling eyes, she immediately understood that she had been fooled, but it was too late, but she only resisted symbolically and soon fell into it.
.
"Mikael——!"
Beo, who came later, saw Mikael and wanted to run over excitedly, but Aozaki Orange grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
"Hey, what are you doing? Orange."
Beo turned his head and glared at Aozaki Orange in dissatisfaction, revealing his sharp little canine teeth, giving the illusion of biting him out of disagreement.
Of course this is not entirely an illusion.
"You have to learn to read the atmosphere. Don't you feel that you are redundant in such an atmosphere?"
"Tsk——"
Beo smacked his lips in displeasure.
"Is it because of that human female? Just kill her."
"Things are not that simple."
Aozaki Orange smiled and shook his head, reaching out and touching Beo's head. In some ways, Beo was almost like a child.
She looked at Ogawa's apartment behind her, where a depressed man was buried. Even in the end, the man did not stop or admit his failure.
His goal lies at the end of this contradictory spiral.
"Forget it, why are you thinking about all this?"
She shook her head to expel these thoughts from her brain, and then touched her pocket, but found nothing.
"Let's go. Let's go to the car and wait for them."
"No, I refuse. I also want to kiss Mikael like that female."
"Rejection is invalid. Three people are prohibited from traveling together."
Aozaki Orange dragged the struggling Beo away mercilessly to his Marston Martin, where a conspicuous parking ticket was affixed.
If you look carefully, you can see that the road in front of the apartment is very wide but there are no cars. The only one parked on the roadside is her car, so it is particularly obvious.
As for tonight's ending, it really has a sense of black humor.
