Suddenly I opened my eyes, and what I saw was the familiar ceiling. The lights had been extinguished, and only the flames of the fireplace were still burning, making occasional crackling sounds, and the firelight illuminated the surrounding walls and floors.
I looked at the time and saw that it was five o'clock in the morning. It was obviously a very cold day, but I broke out in a cold sweat. I carefully checked my chest. It was still fine and had not been penetrated by the blade. However, the severe pain of the heart being pierced was still clear. It stayed in my mind and left a very deep impression.
Is it just a dream? But it’s too real. Why would I have such a dream?
Ah, it's really bad. This is a terrible dream. My clothes are soaked with sweat and they feel sticky and uncomfortable at all.
For the first time in my life, I took a hot bath early in the morning because I was sweating from a nightmare. It felt surprisingly good. It would have been better if I didn’t just have a shower. Occasionally I also want to enjoy the taste of a bath.
Red Wolf was still sleeping in the room. He came uninvited, but he took over my bed as the owner of the house. As a result, I had to sleep on the sofa last night.
Could it be that this was the reason for the nightmare?
That's right, it's all the fault of this shameless woman, Red Wolf.
With this in mind, I cracked two eggs into a heated pan with a layer of oil on top. The oil crackled loudly, and the egg whites gradually turned from transparent to white. I put them on a plate, and then added two more eggs. Grilled sausages and bacon are the perfect breakfast.
...Why did I even do the red wolf's share?
Looking at the perfect breakfast of two eggs, bacon and grilled sausages in front of me, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Ha~ah~, oh, you got up really early."
Red Wolf yawned and stretched and walked out of the room. He had changed into his usual close-fitting leather jacket.
I don't know why I miss the sexy pajamas last night.
"I usually wake up at this time."
"Sleeping in is one of the great pleasures in life. If you don't understand this, you will lose a lot of fun. Wow, is this breakfast made for me?"
The red wolf said and picked up another breakfast without any politeness and started eating it, still eating it with gusto.
Please, it's not that I don't want to sleep in, it's just that I'm used to waking up at this time, and I can't help it if I want to, plus the nightmare I had last night.
When I think of last night's nightmare, the woman who claims to be another me in the dream suddenly appears in front of me, with that bloodthirsty smile, my heart suddenly tightens, the severe pain flashes past, and I can grasp it with a strong force in my hand. The quilt containing hot milk was crushed, and glass fragments and steaming hot milk were scattered on the floor.
"What’s wrong with you?"
The red wolf seemed slightly frightened by the sudden situation, and the fork holding the fried egg stopped for a moment.
"It's okay, my hand slipped a little."
I put down the plate and went to get the cleaning tools to clean up the mess I had just made, feeling that my hands were shaking slightly.
I no longer had the mood to have breakfast, and the feeling of being killed was not good at all.
"Hey, where are you going?"
" have no idea."
Red Wolf asked me, who was already holding the doorknob, but I didn't know how to answer her, because I really didn't know where to go. I just wanted to go out and relax, hoping to bring her with me after experiencing death in my dream. The fear of coming can be alleviated.
When I opened the door, the street lights outside were still on, the sun rose as late as ever, and the sky was only as dark as night with only the clouds illuminated by the lights of this bustling city.
The icy cold wind blew from the other side of the street, passed through the alleys, and blew between the buildings, making people a little more awake. I walked on the streets with few pedestrians, thinking about what I should do today.
.
Finally, I walked to Mr. Atsumu Kazuichi's cafe, or the cafe I ran, and sat there until noon. I drank cups of hot drinks, but I didn't feel the urge to urinate at all.
"Mr. Lian Ye, are you worried about something?"
Mr. Atsugo Kazuichi seemed to notice something strange about me. I don't know how he could see anything different from usual on my face that basically had no expression.
"...It's not really worrying, it's just a nightmare."
"If you don't mind, I'd be happy to be your listener."
"I don't mind. It's just that this dream is a bit too real and it lingers in my mind. I rarely dream, but last night, I dreamed that I was killed."
Every time I recall the scene where my heart was pierced by a sharp blade, my heart feels sharp pain and my hands tremble involuntarily.
"That was really the worst nightmare, but as the saying goes, dreams are always opposite to reality. If you are such a kind person like Mr. Lian Ye, you must be blessed by God."
Mr. Atsushi and Kazuichi were surprised at first, and then said with a gentle smile.
"Thanks."
I am very grateful to Mr. Atsushi Kazuichi for his comfort, but unfortunately, this is not impossible to happen. If you think about it carefully, I face too many dangers, not to mention the threats of mutant creatures and zombies.
, he had already made seemingly formidable enemies when he was in Yawu City.
I have absolutely no idea when death will find me, even tomorrow is not impossible, but I don’t want to die, I want to live. After being comfortable in Luoan Central City for a while, the nightmare last night stirred up again
My desire to survive and my sense of crisis.
"I have something to do, so I need to take a step forward."
"Okay, walk slowly."
Atsushi and Mr. Yi said goodbye to me with a smile.
After leaving the cafe, I went to many places in Luoan Central City, including the roads along the coast, the peaks of the mountains near the Century Tower, and various gyms. I exercised myself all afternoon. I began to consciously adjust my body to be able to exercise at any time.
When you are ready to fight, start practicing repeatedly all the skills you know and have learned to fight against the enemy.
What should you do if you are not as fast as the enemy? What should you do if you are not as powerful as the enemy? How should you respond if you are inferior to the enemy in both aspects? Is there anything else you can do in the face of the enemy's attack besides defense and avoidance?
If you can clearly see or predict the trajectory of the enemy's attack, can you intercept the enemy's attack?
Keep thinking about it. If most offensive and defensive actions can be performed without thinking and become the body's instinct, you may be able to free up more time to think about response strategies during the battle.
This continued until the evening. I remembered that I was going to meet the team members who were rumored to be very unique in the evening, so I hurriedly ended the training, found a restaurant to have dinner, and then rushed to the arranged meeting place.
I remember that it seemed to be on the top floor of this big hotel. After walking into the hotel, after showing your ID, you took the elevator to the second highest floor in the hotel. If you go to the top floor, you still need to climb a flight of stairs to go up.
It is much easier to climb the stairs on this one floor than taking the elevator on dozens of floors!
He put his hand on the handle of the iron door and twisted it gently. The iron door was pushed open with a creaking sound, and the cold wind from the tall building blew in his face, and the sound of the wind whistled in his ears.
"Oh, it's really easy to wait, Captain."
Someone was obviously waiting on the top floor. It was an energetic voice. He turned his head and looked to the left. A woman with long brown hair was leaning on the guardrail of the top floor, chewing gum. There was a star pattern under her left eye.
The right side of his face wears a white mask.
"Well, good evening, Mr. Captain."
The source of the sound was from the right, and I looked to the right. There was a fat man carrying a big backpack, only half my height, and he was greeting me with an honest smile.
Apart from me, there are three people on the top floor. I have already seen two of them. The last one is the most conspicuous. That is the muscular bald vest standing directly in front of me with his head held high and his chest looking down at me. He seems to be over two meters tall.
Big man.
The big man with a bald head and a vest said nothing, but from the expression on his face, it was obvious that he was not happy at all. Could it be because I came a little late?
"Come and duel me, Captain!"
The tall man with a bald head and a vest suddenly said angrily.
Eh? What is going on?!
Are you going to start a fight right away? Please let me go, I just came here after dinner!
