Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1928: The whereabouts of the paper crane
No one of them spoke as they walked out.
If he closed his eyes, Lin Sanjiu could still feel: behind them, there was an invisible thing, growing bigger and bigger under the sky, slowly stretching along the texture of the space, soaking through it like water. Every inch of the world I have touched.
She lowered her head, her arms were clean, and the line had disappeared.
Lin Sanjiu knew that soon she would no longer feel the existence of "meeting an old friend in a foreign land". At this moment, it is still regarded as an external object attached to the world. As the puppeteer said, it is the last piece of the world; once it completes the "installation" and completely becomes a part of the Karma Museum, it will become like air and gravity. Same, everywhere but nowhere to be found.
"This may be my last conversation with humans. After I reach the final form, I will no longer have this self-awareness." Before leaving, an old friend in a foreign land said, "What else do you want? Did you ask me?"
Lin Sanjiu opened her mouth, but didn't know what to ask.
It's not that she doesn't have things she wants to ask, but as long as she thinks about those things, she feels that no one can tell her the answer until the moment when her fate is revealed.
"...I don't have any more," Lin Sanjiu looked back at the puppet master and found that he had gone far away. He was now standing about ten meters away, looking at the distant world, as if he was worried about something like Karma. Classes are not interesting. Obviously, there was nothing he could ask. "Wish you... wish you good luck."
"Thank you," replied the old friend in a foreign land, "and I wish you the kindness of karma and cause and effect."
...She is not worried about herself.
Lin Sanjiu was unable to stop it from taking its final form with the Karma Museum, and had no reason to stop it.
She still remembers the female evolutionist Dalan she met when she first arrived; she believes that all actions in this world will be recorded and measured, and fate is always weighing her future rewards, so she insists on doing one good deed every day. ——Regardless of her motives, at least she did make other people's lives a little smoother and easier.
The puppeteer said nothing.
He didn't even look emotional; as if what he just witnessed was not the prelude to a world turning around, but a nonsense sentence, as if someone had repeated the words in his ears thousands of times, even if it became reality , not surprising.
Following the thread of the sweater that was doing its duty, Lin Sanjiu and the puppet master kept their speed down as they walked out. The big palace of confusion has not completely disappeared, and is still gradually being shattered in circles; if they let go of their full strength, they will step back into the big palace of confusion in a few blinks of the eye - from a distance, it seems that the pace of the two of them is changing. Destroy the copy.
It is true that some people misunderstood this.
"What's going on?"
Across the last city wall, Lin Sanjiu heard a strange male voice. The stone statues and sculptures in the surrounding courtyards have turned into pieces of white, and like snowflakes blown by the wind, they gradually melted and relinquished the ground to the desert; the first copy of the Colossus Courtyard she participated in after coming in, in In a moment it ceased to exist, leaving only a tall but bare wall in front of it.
"It seems...it seems like some places are disappearing," another voice sounded from behind the wall, "Look over there..."
Lin Sanjiu remembered that behind the city wall was a "hesitation zone", and passing through it was the main entrance to the Grand Palace of Confusion. It seems that these two people are very lucky. They have just entered and before they have made up their mind to walk through the hesitation area, the Confusion Palace no longer exists.
When I thought of this, the last city wall had fallen to the ground in clusters, revealing the large brick floor behind the wall.
The two stepped into the hesitation area and looked around, only to find that the brick floor was empty and there was no one.
Run away?
"Are those two people leaving?" Lin Sanjiu broke the silence for the first time, "Leaving so fast?"
The puppet master slowly turned his head and looked around.
"They are lucky..." Lin Sanjiu muttered. The replica creature seemed to be the first to disappear; even though the palace gate was still there, the old man at the door had long since disappeared. It seemed that there were only two of them within a radius of nearly 100 meters.
No matter what, at least she had something to talk about.
"No," the puppeteer suddenly interrupted her, "they are still here."
Lin Sanjiu was startled and immediately closed her eyes. The method Kurosawa Ji taught her, after being refined and sublimated, can even allow her to detect the curvature of space when it is occupied by objects; at first glance, she felt that everything in the world was normal, and she could only pour more into it. After a moment of concentration, she realized that there seemed to be a special item that created the illusion of a layer of space.
"It's a special item!" She said in a low voice and immediately opened her eyes.
Almost at the same time, she felt a gust of wind blowing from her ears, but her eyes were empty.
The puppet master's back was like a black blade cutting off the space, sliding out along the crack, and rushed towards the door in the blink of an eye. Lin Sanjiu didn't even see what he did. She only felt that when his hand gently poked into the air, the space could no longer support it and suddenly shattered. The two figures looked like prey that had been spat out of the throat by a giant beast. , rolled and crawled and fell to the ground.
"What——" A man raised his head and drank half a sentence, and then his voice suddenly broke in his chest.
The other woman was smarter than him. Although her face was as pale as death, she still stammered: "Who are you? We don't offend each other. I, we have no ill intentions..."
Lin Sanjiu vaguely remembered that she had heard somewhere before that those who did not know the puppet master and walked past him openly were not in any danger to their lives; the rest, no matter whether they were trying to please Whether you fight for your life, run away crying, or fight in anger, there is no guarantee that you will survive.
It’s just that the man’s fear was so obvious that anyone who saw it would know that he recognized the puppet master.
The puppet master did not speak, his eyes fell on the two of them. Their hands were clasped tightly together, as if they were supporting each other.
"We saw the Grand Palace of Confusion disappearing..." the woman said in a panic, "We were going in, but we didn't know what happened, and we saw someone coming out... We are not very capable, we are afraid If I cause trouble, I want to hide first. I’m sorry, let’s leave now, okay?”
Lin Sanjiu walked up. She only glanced at the man and woman who looked like a couple, and then her eyes returned to the puppet master. The half of his face facing her showed no expression; but Lin Sanjiu somehow sensed a trace of confusion from him - as if he didn't know what to do.
She really wanted to say don't be afraid, don't worry, everything will be fine in the future. But she also knew that it was just empty comforting words.
"I'll handle it." Lin Sanjiu said softly.
The puppet master glanced at her, paused, and then nodded slowly.
"You know who he is, right." Lin Sanjiu turned her head and said to the couple matter-of-factly.
They looked very pale and seemed not to know how to answer.
"More than just knowing him..." Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and continued: "You say your abilities are not high, but hidden items are very precious. Even I was almost fooled by the effects of your items. ”
"Yes, we had good luck once..." the wife whispered, "If you want..."
"No, I'm not here to take your things." Lin Sanjiu looked at them and felt that the images in his mind were gradually becoming clearer. "I just suddenly remembered something, which is quite interesting."
When the two of them looked at her, their eyes flickered with fear and suspicion.
"During my visit to the Grand Palace, someone sent me two paper cranes."
While in the dungeon space, "Lucky Wanderer Lottery Point" told her ~IndoMTL.com~ that the paper crane that was really supposed to be given to her, as well as another paper crane that explained the reason, were all made by people who participated in the dungeon together. Conse sent it to her, but she never received it.
"I remember that I happened to turn my head once when I walked into the gate... By coincidence, I happened to see two paper cranes flying into the Grand Palace of Confusion and landing in the hesitation area."
Lin Sanjiu looked at their expressions and said, "Now that I think about it, the paper crane I gave to my friend before coming in also flew into the gate of the Grand Palace of Confusion... Isn't there a hesitation area behind the gate? ”
Both of them pursed their lips involuntarily.
"If I ask you to remain motionless now, and then give the puppeteer a paper crane..." Lin Sanjiu said slowly, "If I am not wrong, it should fly towards you two. ?"
Didn’t I run out of outlines, but I finally squeezed out a little more with the help of transitional plots... I have been researching e-books every day these days, and I found that if I buy kobo, I don’t need mooink, and kobo can also buy traditional Chinese books. , good news, I saved a lot of money. I don’t know if anyone has been planted by me...?
