0930 Chapter 18: The rise and fall of the intervening years
Prime Minister Zuo felt that his whole body was not well.
Could it be that what the evil creature spews is not a thread, but a law that destroys order and reason?
In a moment of shock, the escalator shook twice violently, swallowing the King of Negatives alive while his upper body was still on the ground.
Then, the escalator looked towards the Prime Minister with a pair of slender eyes with an inverted figure. It shook its large square mouth as if it was burping... and chirped twice!
The Prime Minister Zuo didn't know where King Fu Xi was swallowed, but it was obviously not the lower cabin that could be explained physically, because he did not hear the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
Through the big mouth of this escalator monster, the King of Negatives seemed to be swallowed directly into an indescribable and strange dimension that was beyond the edge of reason.
Fortunately, the ghost thing still seems to have retained part of the essence of the escalator, and it did not jump out from the iron steps to chase and bite me...
"Da Sima!" Zuo Xiang was extremely panicked and turned around to ask for help from his backbone in this critical moment.
However, he only saw the last remaining part of Da Sima, that is, his face, which began to be stripped down to the most basic thin lines like wool.
His final expression was not one of horror, but full of confusion and regret.
You can guess from the dense lines behind him that Da Sima was affected by the dragon's breath just now.
Then, as if this way of death was not ordinary enough, a piece of work that was supposed to be fixed at the bottom of the cabin suddenly jumped up and swallowed up the remaining face of Da Sima.
Then, the chair "turned around" to look at the Prime Minister, revealing an embarrassing face that looked like twins from the same egg as the escalator.
At the same time, identical faces also climbed onto the control panel, the captain's seat, and the display screen hanging from the ceiling...
A tingling chill crawled down the heels of Zuo Xiang's head Baihui.
After crossing the escalator at the door, the Prime Minister jumped out of the bridge and started running back along the original route.
Must escape!
This thought echoed in his mind.
However, the left prime minister, who had been frightened to the point of mental disorder, could not even correctly understand and grasp his own thoughts at this time. He subconsciously and instinctively ran towards the small, hidden, and enclosed cabin that belonged to him. In despair,
An animal's instinct to hide can easily take over.
The obsession of "must escape" was twisted by the chaotic spirit into "must escape back".
With a little bit of luck, the left prime minister who was running madly did not touch any of the human lines crossing the aisle. Even though these filaments had become more and more dense during this time, it was far more than they tried to find the bridge.
time.
And those still-life-like monsters just screamed at him on the walls, on the ceiling, and in every cabin he passed, but in the end, none of them could escape from their own scope of activity and catch up.
In this way, Zuo Xiang successfully escaped back to his cabin and locked himself inside.
One hour, two hours...
The hull of the ship shook violently again and again, as if the huge mythical creature was suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder that "it can't sleep until the metal shell is taken apart."
One day, two days...
The hull of the ship was not damaged and no water entered. The intervals between violent vibrations became longer and longer until they could no longer be felt.
One month, two months...
Prime Minister Zuo huddled silently on the bed in the corner, wrapped in a quilt, motionless. He didn't eat, drink, or need to go to the toilet.
After an unknown amount of time, Zuo Xiang's blurred pupils suddenly shrank flexibly and he began to look at his cabin suspiciously.
The old metal walls, the folding hammock hanging on the bulkhead, no portholes, the narrow desk fixed on the bulkhead... everything is exactly the same as when I was caught.
The series of twisted, weird, crazy, and puzzling encounters we just went through were like a bizarre dream.
But Xiang Zuo confirmed that he had not fallen asleep. It had lasted for at least several months and he had never fallen asleep. He did not dare to sleep. Until now, he felt something suddenly changed in his heart, and he still deeply remembered the moment before.
The fear and despair lingering in my heart.
This is a very weird experience, which makes people feel unable to distinguish reality from fiction.
Compared with sleepiness, he felt that the most intense demand coming from his body that was gradually coming back to life was...hunger.
After much hesitation, the Prime Minister decided to open the cabin door.
When reason regained control over this body and mind, he clearly realized that if he refused to go out, there would be only death waiting for him.
The dim light was just as I remembered.
It's just that those twisted and horrifying black, red, or translucent thin lines that should be some kind of paradox in my memory have all disappeared without a trace.
Instead, there was a corpse blocking the door.
The Prime Minister Zuo could tell at a glance that this was the body of the Taifu. It belonged to the taciturn man with whom he had always had a good relationship. He was killed when the ship was attacked by mythical creatures not long ago because he touched an inaccessible human line.
A first-class official who peels off the cocoon and breaks it down into countless fine threads.
The corpse was obviously twisted, but it was pulled within the normal physical rules, and it did not turn into the thin strings that make people want to go crazy just by looking at it.
He also noticed that Taifu's body was still very fresh. The blood flowing out from the tear caused by excessive pulling had not yet dried up, so it could not be a corpse that had been dead for several months.
He didn't try to check the office lobby because his main concern right now was the food.
The dining room and kitchen are on the lower deck. There is also an activity center, table tennis room and library.
Along the way, he saw many corpses. Some were colleagues who had escaped from the office with him a few months ago, and many more were sailors wearing the Zang Prince's official uniform.
All the corpses, without exception, had been twisted and elongated to a limited extent, or had broken fractures of various sizes, as if they had been eaten by something.
He quickly found the kitchen. The chef's corpse did not affect his appetite, and the ingredients in the freezer were unexpectedly fresh.
It wasn't until he was full and drunk that Prime Minister Zuo thought of going to the bridge to find out what was going on. He found the key card from the corpse of the sailor on the ground and opened the door to the top deck that was originally forbidden to them.
I don’t know if the Eastern Dragon that has the ability to distort reality is really the [Reckoning] that destroys the world. If everyone on the Luliang is dead except for myself, I don’t know if I can make this happen.
A huge ship sailed back to land.
He didn't even know how to land a submarine on a coast without a dedicated port!
But these are all things for later. The first priority is to go to the bridge to confirm the situation. After observing Da Sima's operations throughout the process, the Prime Minister Zuo vaguely remembers the operation process of releasing the detection robot. Even if he can't remember clearly, he will try a few times and there will be no one.
I stood up with my twisted body and blamed myself.
However, after passing corpses one after another and reaching the bridge, the Prime Minister was shocked again.
