If Lin Sanjiu had any lucky illusions that "the puppet master came to save people", they were all shattered into pieces in the next few seconds until not even the residue was left.
She herself is still alive, which is enough to prove that the puppet master is a person who does what he says. Since he said, "If you run out of time, you might as well die there," then she and Bohemia are really different.
Wanting a little help from him - in fact, when he suddenly took action, he didn't even have the intention to avoid Lin Sanjiu and the other two.
Before the words were spoken, the flood from nowhere was already roaring from the distant hills, rushing through the trees with a devastating force. The trees that were swallowed up by the high water waves were still there.
It was neither broken nor destroyed. In that flash of lightning, Lin Sanjiu saw in a trance that several trees were withering and decaying in the flood, as if they could not bear the weight of time and were finally about to expire.
He lay dying on the ground.
Before she had time to see if the tree where Bohemia was located was also involved in the flood, she was swept up by the roaring waves. Her vision immediately went dark, and even Teacher Yi's exclamation sounded distant and vague.
It’s not real anymore.
...I don’t know how much time passed, but Lin Sanjiu was awakened by the persistent crying of the little baby.
When she opened her eyes, she was lying on the slightly shaking ground, her head was dizzy, and even the pain caused by the wound on the back of her head was diluted by this feeling of darkness, weakness, and fatigue.
The sky and the woods were blurry and covered with a layer of white mist. After blinking hard a few times, she found that the white mist seemed to be covering her eyeballs. Her eyes and ears seemed to be wrapped with thick spider silk,
I can neither hear nor see clearly.
The slight sound of leather creaking sounded like an hallucination from afar, but she still managed to catch it. Just as she raised her head following the sound, she suddenly became short of breath and choked as if lifeless. Lin Sanjiu finally managed to catch it.
He pushed himself up from the ground with a cough. When he looked down, he saw that the gray hands supporting the ground were old and dry, covered with veins and spots. Even the thin dark red circles on his wrists were sunk into the loose and swollen skin.
.
...Is this her hand?
Lin Sanjiu was stunned. At this time, the ground shook again, causing her to almost fall down. At this moment, a strong and steady hand suddenly reached into her armpit and helped her upright.
She looked back and saw a strange young boy looking into her eyes.
The fluffy hair on the top of the boy's head was dyed pink, and the sides were cut short, still retaining the original platinum hair color. Whether it was his nose ring or a small tattoo on his cheek, he still showed his fair skin.
The thin arms and the wide vest perfectly harmonize with his bold and flamboyant temperament - the corner of his thin mouth is the standard definition of young, fearless and disdainful.
"You, you are..." The voice coming out of Lin Sanjiu's mouth seemed like a dry leaf that would break at any time.
"Oh my god," the pink-haired boy took a breath, not knowing how to hide it: "Aren't people too ugly when they get old? Really, listen to my advice, instead of becoming like this, it is better to be young when you are young.
I'd rather die."
Lin Sanjiu looked at him through her eyes that seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, and slowly blinked a few times. Behind the pink-haired boy, there were various people lying on the ground: several crying people. A baby with a blushing face, a few dead people, four or five people who were equally old and couldn't even tell the difference between male and female... If anything looked familiar, it was the clothes they were wearing.
These clothes were worn by people with crooked faces not long ago.
"I...them," Lin Sanjiu was struggling to speak now, "what happened? Who are you?"
The pink-haired boy curled his lips: "Are you suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
The tone of this sentence was subtly familiar to her - Lin Sanjiu stared at him blankly, a thought suddenly came to her mind, but she couldn't believe it: "...Bo, Bohemia?"
The big boy let go of his hand holding her and gesticulated with his face, "I think I look good like this, right? You really deserve to be me."
It's pretty good-looking, but that's not the point, right?
Just when Lin Sanjiu was about to open her mouth to ask, a thin, low sound of leather rubbing jolted her back to her senses - she turned around with difficulty and was about to ask the puppet master what he had done. What? When she could barely see the scenery not far away clearly, she couldn't help but be stunned.
The huge queen ant, which was still high above the sky not long ago, was completely overturned by someone at some point; its head and front teeth pointed straight into the sky, and its slender tentacles snaked on the ground, as if two wings were sweeping back and forth. The python. Its six thick long legs protruding from its abdomen were constantly trembling and struggling in mid-air, shaking the earth. However, they were always tightly bound together by the black mist, and there was no hope of breaking free.
Next to the uncomfortably large ant's head, a dark figure stood upright. The puppeteer's back was turned to her at the moment, and he clearly heard her voice, but he didn't even bother to look back; in a hazy state, , there seemed to be something different about him - but Lin Sanjiu's eyes were too dim to see clearly what was different.
"Hel me over," she told the young boy's version of Bohemia.
Bohemia's character is obviously still the same, not as fearless as her new appearance: "I won't go." After thinking about it, she added: "My lord didn't scream."
It's really irritating - Lin Sanjiu couldn't move with his current body, so he could only say in a low voice to the puppet master's back: "You... when did you catch it? That flood... in the end What is it? What happened to me?"
Although it looked like a flood, when it faded away, there was no trace of moisture on the leaves, ground, or clothes.
After the words fell, there was silence, and in the air there was only the sound of the branches and leaves stirred up by the queen ant. After waiting for a long time, the two of them heard the puppet master sigh almost softly.
"I didn't believe that anything in the world was impossible before," he didn't turn around, still looking at the queen's head, and his voice came clearly into her ears. "...But I was wrong. I admit that it is impossible to make good use of you."
Even though he was now old and declining, Lin Sanjiu still felt unconvinced in his heart.
"Just, even if you don't come, we can... also defeat the queen ant. It just takes a little more work..." It's not like she has never been besieged by evolvers before, and she is confident that she can win - didn't Teacher Yi also say that? , her mind moves very fast when fighting.
The puppet master smiled coldly, and his sharp tone was as sharp as an ice knife: "You are too polite, how could it be harder? I will give you a pen and ask you to write down your name, but you will have to scratch your head for two days.
.”
Lin Sanjiu suppressed a few slanders - firstly because he knew the current affairs, and secondly because he had no strength.
"I...what happened to me? These people..."
Hearing this, the puppeteer finally turned around slowly. He seemed to have changed his clothes, because the feathers on his shoulders and wrists disappeared. Her vision was blurry at this moment, and she could only vaguely see a few thin black belts wrapped around her.
It pressed against his pale and thin waist. When he turned around, some cotton and bloodshot wounds seemed to be exposed on his lower abdomen.
Taking another closer look, she understood what was different about the puppet master.
his hair.
Lin Sanjiu swallowed, feeling as if something was stuck in her throat and she couldn't swallow. The puppet master's dark hair, which originally hung down to his collarbone, was cut short by him at some point and combed back.
The shiny black hair flows smoothly along his head and sticks to the back of his snow-white neck, revealing the outline of his thin, cold face - on the half of his face that cannot move, there is an eternal youthful air.
...Miyadoichi also has the same hairstyle.
When he left Yunshou Jiucheng, he took away the law enforcer's clothes; now that he was about to find Gong Daoyi, he cut his hair short and combed it... as if the puppet master had enjoyed the joy of revenge.
Extreme, so he must take away some souvenirs to let the hatred of the past live on him forever.
He must have been impatient. He didn't even wait to kill Gong Daoyi with his own hands before he wanted a souvenir.
"I just got [the torrent of time], and it was wasted by you."
Perhaps it was because Lin Sanjiu was looking straight at him, there was a strong sense of disgust in his voice, as if she was more difficult to see than the queen ant: "Turn your face away, don't look at me, your current
It looks radiant."
【The torrent of time】!
Lin Sanjiu's thinking was immediately pulled back. She is always old now, but fortunately her brain is still fast: "I understand...it messes up everyone's time...So, when someone gets old,
Someone regressed to infancy..."
She turned her head and looked at the pink-haired boy next to her. He had well-proportioned muscles and bones and a slender figure. Although he was not muscular, his skin seemed to be full of endless energy and full of luster - he was indeed a good-looking boy.
Thinking that this fresh vitality must have disappeared long ago, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but sigh a little: "This boy... is your last life, right?"
"It should be." Bohemia stretched and contracted her fingers, and couldn't help but whisper: "Who on earth divided my life into five sections? This power is so amazing, I can't figure it out... Even I
The abilities are all different.”
Even the ability to evolve changes with different life forms?
This was indeed an ability that Lin Sanjiu could not even imagine. She coughed again, gasped and asked in the distance: "The queen...how did you catch it?"
Even a puppet master couldn't bring down such a big queen ant solely by physical strength, not to mention that he was still injured... He must have used some items to assist him? He used special items one after another, and even [
"The Flood of Time" took out something that sounded precious at first sight. It seemed that he really wanted to rush to somewhere else as soon as possible - where exactly was it?
"Let me think about it," the puppet master suddenly clapped his hands, as if he had forgotten something, and then smiled almost affectionately: "Do I have any obligation to answer all the questions asked by a maggot?"
Lin Sanjiu was discouraged.
"Oh, no."
These words quickly became low and cold, and as he tilted his head with a sinister expression, Lin Sanjiu understood why people in the Twelve Worlds called him a mad dog - "Before the torrent effect disappears, please give me
The answers I want are squeezed out of them."
Bohemia nodded desperately: "Thank you for the second chance."
What answer does he want?
The elderly Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that he wanted to know why the evolved people stopped teleporting after converting. She glanced at the people who were still alive not far away - babies are naturally useless, so they only
Can I try to wake up those people who are also aging and dying?
"What about you?" She asked angrily, "What do you want to do with the queen?"
The puppeteer turned around and ignored her.
Perseverance is Lin Sanjiu's greatest characteristic. Even when she was too old to speak, she could still ask the same question ten times in a row - the puppet master finally became impatient with her.
Suddenly he turned around and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!"
After a pause, he raised his hand, gently turned his fingers, and made a circle on the ant queen's belly, which was as high as a hill: "... What the big witch wants is 'from the big to the small'. I want it
