...When the enemies around me disappeared, the suffering in the next period of time became more difficult than before.`
The basement is only two meters deep - after there is no house above the head, this depth plays a minimal role; as long as someone fails to stand firm, he will be immediately uprooted from the ground and sucked high into the sky.
The cracks in the sky are getting bigger and deeper; no one knows what is behind the cracks, only the darkness that is gradually revealed is deeper and purer than the night, and it is frightening to see.
The wind speed has reached such a level that it makes people unable to breathe at all. The places where they can borrow strength have been swept away by the air flow - the pipes in the basement and the stair railings can't bear the strength at all. They can't hold on for more than a few minutes before they are violently blown away. The wind pulled it down and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Of course, even if there were any places to catch nearby, Lin Sanjiu wouldn't know about it - because neither she nor several other people could open their eyes at all at this time.
As if a few grains of dust were resisting a powerful vacuum cleaner, the group of people clung to the corner of the basement, pulling one by one, and were slapped against the wall by the roaring wind; everyone had bruises and wounds all over their bodies. ——It was smashed out by all kinds of debris, shelves, and tools in the basement.
Lin Sanjiu used a bone whip to wrap the big witch around his back, broke two small holes in the wall, and stretched out his hands to dig in - his upper body was steady, but his feet flew into the sky involuntarily. She got up, and even the gift bag and Qingjiu Liu floated up, which scared her so much that she quickly released her consciousness.
As soon as their consciousness rushed out, like a huge roll of tape, they resisted the wind while pressing down on their legs and feet. Finally, several people fell back on their heads and feet, and their hearts were almost blown away by the wind. Got out.
After calming down, Lin Sanjiu slowly and with difficulty removed the card form of [Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix] between her fingers.
A long and narrow tattoo in the shape of a phoenix crown immediately jumped out as if it were alive and landed on the left side of her face - she actually wanted to be like the killer and have the tattoo printed on her arm; but now she was really nervous. Without opening my hands, I had to let it penetrate into the facial skin along the jawline.
[Hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix]
The true phoenix is here, and the world comes to court.
——As an ancient mythical creature with a transcendent status, who rules over all birds, it is the most basic courtesy you can show me when you come over and pay homage to me. Moreover, I am a very talkative bird, and I do not require everyone to be like a peacock, crane, or swan. So beautiful,
Even if you are an old hen, I welcome you to come to worship me.
Effect: All creatures similar to the owner of the item will be subject to force majeure and come to worship the owner of the item. When the owner of the item expresses satisfaction with them, this force majeure will be lifted - of course, if you are unwilling to salute, you can also do something Other things; dancing, singing, stealing and killing, these are their freedom.
Note: "Next to" refers to the place 65-85 cm in front of the owner of the item.
When people come to worship you, you can't always stop them from leaving; so after seven minutes, the effect disappears.
Even if it is a real phoenix, it is enough to toss hundreds of birds once a day; therefore, this item can only be used for seven minutes a day - these seven minutes can be used multiple times or used up at once; but if the time limit has expired, it can only be used
Wait for the next day.
"Shape similarity" means that the target's appearance is roughly similar to the owner of the item. Data such as weight, body shape, height, hair volume, number of feet, etc. must not differ from the owner of the item by more than a certain range, otherwise it cannot be considered similar in appearance.
...With the gravitational pull of [Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix], Libao and Qingjiu Liu were immediately pulled closer. The two of them couldn't help but lighten their expressions, and finally took a hard breath.
At this time, the cracks in the sky had opened to a shocking extent.
If you simply used physical strength to resist the wind speed, no matter how strong an evolutionist you are, you would probably be swept up into the sky long ago; if it were not for [Hundred Birds Pay Attention to the Phoenix] and consciousness, Lin Sanjiu and his party would not be able to support themselves at all.
Not until now——
"How long has it been?" Lin Sanjiu raised his voice and shouted amidst the deafening roar of the strong wind.
Ji Shanqing's long ponytail floated high in the air, his face pressed tightly against the wall. When he heard the sound, he shouted without looking back: "——What?"
"How long has it been since the dimension crack appeared!" As soon as the words came out, they seemed to be swept away immediately; even Lin Sanjiu himself couldn't hear clearly.
"It's been more than ten minutes!" Libao finally heard it and replied loudly.
So long?
Lin Sanjiu tried her best to steady her body, and her heart sank. She felt that her consciousness, like paper lit by flames, was rapidly being consumed, reduced, and shrunk... But the strong wind between heaven and earth was not only a little bit...
It has not slowed down, but has become more fierce, as if it wants to wrap up the whole planet and send it into the dimensional rift.
The skin exposed to the wind has long been turned into a flush; the body temperature has been continuously swept away, and the hands and feet have become cold and numb. Lin Sanjiu can't even open his eyes, even if he squints, the air current carries the gravel and blows it.
Her eyeballs were so dry and painful——
"Has it decreased?"
She buried her face in her arms and shouted almost desperately.
This time it was Qingjiuru who answered her - "The crack is bigger than before," even though he was only a few feet away, his hearing was so vague that it would disappear if he wasn't careful: "...my cigarette was swept away.
Got it!"
When have you ever cared about your cigarettes?
Lin Sanjiu let out a sigh of relief and bit her lip.
"Sister, sister! Is there any special item that I can use?" Ji Shanqing's words reached Lin Sanjiu's ears after he shouted several times.
Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment, then perked up: "Yes!"
[Pygmalion Collar] In Ji Shanqing's hoarse shouts, it quickly warmed up——
The gift package adapted to local conditions and described to her the ability to "increase weight"; as the description came into effect, Lin Sanjiu immediately increased her weight to 500 tons in one go, and her feet finally slowly stepped onto the ground.
Because the ability caused by the collar is always affected by the upper limit of the potential value, even if she wants to sink a little more, she can't do anything about it - as soon as her feet hit the ground, she immediately put away her consciousness and sat down along the corner; now
The weight is so shocking that if the pressure is not shared, the ground will be crushed, let alone her own bones.
As soon as Lin Sanjiu stabilized, the other two people also breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, I can survive at least another five minutes.
"If the dimensional crack has not disappeared after five minutes," Qingjiuru stepped closer and shouted to the two of them: "——You can also use [combat items] to imitate the collar!"
Lin Sanjiu breathed out a sigh of relief and nodded reluctantly. Using the [Combat Item] to imitate the collar meant that she could extend the effect of the [Pygmalion Collar] to ten minutes in a certain day; if
Against an opponent of the level of the Puppet Master and the Great Miko, this is a weapon that can completely change life and death - I didn't expect it to be wasted on an occasion like today.
Forget it, it's not a waste if it can save your life - Lin Sanjiu comforted herself while blocking the wind with her arms, looking towards the sky through the gap with difficulty.
... Just as Qing Jiuru said, the deep gap that seemed to tear the world apart not only had no tendency to close, but was longer than before, like a mouth that was grinning wider and wider. Looking up from there
When he opened his mouth and looked up, he saw only a lifeless darkness - except for the fragments that were pouring in crazily.
After only watching for a few seconds, Lin Sanjiu had to retract her head, lowered her face, endured the airflow that could almost break the skin, and silently counted the time in her heart.
When she counted more than sixty "Mississippis", the ferocious air current suddenly slowed down. Just like its sudden appearance, as soon as the crack disappeared, the world immediately became almost dramatic and calm; it was flattened by the crack.
All that is left of the small town is the last bit of messy, meaningless ruins, motionless in the audible silence.
Several people glanced at each other and found that each other's expressions were still solemn - according to the last experience, the dimensional rift is probably not over yet.
"Quick," Lin Sanjiu stood up with her hands on the ground, her voice hoarse: "Let's prepare quickly before the second crack comes."
[Hundred Birds Pay Attention to the Phoenix] After the first level, Libao and Qingjiu Liu also got busy. Compared with other places, the basement was not directly affected by gravity, so they did not plan to leave; using their self-respect at this time, Lin Sanjiu
A hole was quickly made in the concrete floor - since there was a foundation under the house, the work of digging the hole was much easier. Several people raced against time and hurriedly dug the hole again; they were careful not to expand the hole.
Within a few minutes, a not too deep "well" appeared in the foundation.
Several people quickly climbed into the hole and stabilized themselves, with their upper bodies still exposed on the ground.
"Oh, I didn't expect that I would have to dig a hole to hide." Qingjiuru held his last cigarette in his mouth, cherishing it so much that he was reluctant to light it: "It's okay if the crack comes, but if it doesn't come, we will be like marmots. Yes, it’s a bit silly.”
Except for the great miko who couldn't speak, the other two people looked at him as if they were crazy.
Lin Sanjiu raised her hand and slid it on her face, and her face soon darkened.
The effect of [Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix] appeared for just a few seconds, and then disappeared again - plus the time used by the killer, today's seven minutes have already expired.
...When the air flow calmed down, the world seemed to be completely dead. No one spoke. When they were silent, they could even hear each other's breathing and the sound of blood flow clearly.
"It's been so long," Ji Shanqing leaned forward slightly and suddenly said softly: "It doesn't seem possible..."
Before he finished speaking, the earth's crust suddenly trembled a few times, and the words of the gift package were suddenly squeezed into an exclamation - the mountains and the earth shook for a moment, as if someone put the planet in a bag and shook it violently; Lin Sanjiu glanced around and clearly saw the cracks that were suddenly torn open on the ground in the distance——
When the earth was cracking, all the sounds were so small that they became a murmur; then, she couldn't even see what was in front of her. She could only hold on to the edge of the hole tightly, and the land suddenly went crazy. Throwing them down to the ground. Human strength seemed so ridiculous in the face of this terrifying toppling force. The only thing that stopped a few people from being thrown out of the hole was Lin Sanjiu's consciousness, which he used to hold them down for a moment.
Ji Shanqing lost control and was thrown so hard on Lin Sanjiu that she was hit with stars in her eyes. Immediately, a crying voice from the gift bag rang in her ears: "Sister, there is a dimensional rift." It’s on the ground!”
Lin Sanjiu's face suddenly turned pale, and before he could say anything, the ground around him rumbled and screamed again; the gift bag was thrown away like this, and it was immediately thrown away again - fortunately, Lin Sanjiu's consciousness was still wrapped around them. He was not thrown out of the hole; it's just that the hole is constantly collapsing and cracking, and I don't know how long it can last.
Pieces of earth were quickly swallowed up by the cracks, and were unable to resist in the face of the deep black gravity.
If this speed continues, Lin Sanjiu and his party will be sucked away together with the planet in less than a minute; consciousness rushes out crazily, just to keep them in place - Lin Sanjiu holds on She picked up the [Combat Item] and roared a few times, trying to get the two people around her to describe a way out of her current predicament; however, what was horrifying was that her voice could not be heard at all.
After resisting for only about ten seconds, her consciousness quickly lost more than half. When Lin Sanjiu was shaken by the constant trembling and was almost unable to resist, she had already caught a glimpse of the crack in her peripheral vision - a touch of absolute Darkness tore the world apart, and it seemed as if her eyes were suddenly blinded.
"Ugh!"
A clear scream suddenly rang out from Lin Sanjiu's ears, covering up the sound of the continent being swallowed up. Lin Sanjiu was startled and suddenly realized the source of the sound.
"I just fell asleep for a while, how did you end up in this situation!"
Teacher Yi was obviously also frightened. Before Lin Sanjiu could say anything, he said hurriedly: "You don't have much consciousness left. I will help you control the flow rate of consciousness. You should think of another way quickly!"
There was no time to say anything now. Lin Sanjiu felt that her consciousness was flowing out at a steady speed, and she immediately crawled towards Qingjiu Liu who was closest to her with difficulty; she showed him the [combat item] that turned into a collar in her hand.
, he understood immediately.
"Do the opposite," he leaned close to Lin Sanjiu's ear, his voice almost piercing her eardrums: "Your ability is to do the opposite! The effects that appear on you, everything
It’s all the opposite of the original purpose!”
As soon as she understood what he meant, Lin Sanjiu's heart dropped, and she almost burst into tears. The imitation collar quickly began to heat up, and she hurriedly used her consciousness and bone whip to wrap around the other three people.
, waiting for the effect.
Facing such a terrifying dimensional rift, the effect of her abilities restricted by her potential value is of course not enough to see; but at least, after several people were thrown out of the hole, not only were they not sucked forward, but they were moved forward bit by bit.
Pointing to the ground, struggling to move back——
This little bit of countervailing power seemed so unstable in front of the crack; after a long time that seemed like a lifetime, the big black mouth on the distant horizon finally gradually became smaller and finally disappeared completely. The sea water had long been sucked in.
Not a drop is left. If someone looks down from the starry sky, they will find that this planet is like a jelly that has been dug out by a large spoon, with a piece deeply missing.
They fell back to the ground with a few thuds. The exhausted people could not stand up for a while. They could only lie on the ground and squeezed out a few bellows-like gasps from the depths of their lungs.
"I, I said," Qing Jiulu's voice was hoarse, and his beautiful face was full of wounds and dust: "...I have been extremely unlucky since I met you."
Lin Sanjiu was so out of breath that she couldn't reply - in fact, she also felt that she was quite unlucky.
"It scared me to death." Teacher Yi, as a personified image, did not need to breathe. At this time, his voice was as steady as usual: "...I thought that after finally waking up, I would die with you."
Seeing that Lin Sanjiu still remained silent, she paused and then said: "By the way, you still have a little bit of consciousness left - just enough to call upon the images captured by your subconscious. I have something I want you to see.
"
"...What?" Lin Sanjiu finally responded in her mind - she was so tired that she couldn't even think.
In response, Teacher Yi unfolded a scene in front of her that was constantly shaking violently - it was exactly the moment when she accidentally glanced towards the dimensional crack at the most critical moment.
The picture was brought closer and enlarged. The boundless darkness deep in the dimensional rift suddenly filled Lin Sanjiu's field of vision.
The darkness lasted for several minutes before finally revealing what she saw at a sudden glance - like pixels that were almost indistinguishable after zooming in on the picture.
...At the end of the darkness, there was a dim little planet floating.
