Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 2406 The person who has been waiting not far away

"Every action you take next will be my answer to you."

Under Nuwa's gaze, Lin Sanjiu slowly stood up, as if she was squeezing away some heavy, viscous water bit by bit with her shoulders and back.

She felt that she was standing on a cliff and was about to jump off. She didn't know whether she would be supported by the wind and wings, or whether she would fall straight into the abyss with no room for regret.

"If you want to know what I mean by 'giving up friends and family,' just watch."

Would Nuwa think that she was trying another way to delay time?

But that doesn't matter.

Even though Lin Sanjiu had made up her mind and gained consciousness, her muscles and body were trembling and stumbling, as if she was trying to write line after line of fearful and unwilling words in the air with uncontrollable trembling.

She gritted her teeth and pressed her hands on her thighs, as if she could stabilize them; with one last glance at Nuwa, she turned around and walked out of the medical cabin door.

Nuwa will remove the frozen time at any time. At that time, every area of ​​ability that takes people's lives will start to continue timing - but this is not the reason why Lin Sanjiu's pace is getting faster and faster.

Even if the timer continues immediately, there will still be some time before everyone is truly dead; however, once time returns to normal flow, the person who needs to escape from her as soon as possible is not Nuwa.

For the first time, Lin Sanjiu felt that she was running with blood and life. The scenery in her peripheral vision was blurry and elongated. She could hear nothing and feel nothing. There was only one goal left, which was to run forward faster and faster. This journey was too long. When she finally jumped in The moment in the cockpit seemed like a dream without any sense of reality.

"You came?"

There were no lights on in the cockpit; under the dim light of the huge screen in front, Nuwa turned around from the driver's seat, her face suspended in the darkness and silence that had not been disturbed for a long time, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

Lin Sanjiu didn't say a word. As soon as the person entered, he immediately locked the cockpit door with his backhand. He forced out his consciousness and used its stickiness to seal every inch of the door, covering the entire wall. Sealed.

"What are you doing here?" Nuwa asked softly, almost like an old friend.

"Didn't you remove the freezing time?"

Lin Sanjiu hurriedly walked past the cockpit, trying not to glance at the place where Yu Yuan was trapped. "Or is it that the person occupying Bohemia's body doesn't know that I'm already in the cockpit?"

Nuwa tilted her head, noncommittal.

In other words, both are possible?

No, it can't be a fluke; if she didn't answer either of the two, she should think that the flow of time has returned to normal, and it's only a matter of time before "Bohemia" finds her way into the cockpit - the window left for her is rapidly narrowing.

As if Nuwa was not worth mentioning and was just a decoration, Lin Sanjiu didn't even turn his eyes towards her. He jumped on the console with a few steps and dug out everything Yu Yuan had told her from his memories. One word, his eyes wandered around, looking for the contact device he mentioned once.

That communication device was brought into the cockpit by Yu Yuan just two days ago and was not part of the ship's control console. When Li Bao and Qing Jiuli were playing billiards, Yu Yuan said that he had just used it to communicate once, so it should be there -

Lin Sanjiu's eyelids twitched, and he reached out and grabbed a black machine in the corner of the console.

"So that's what you think," Nuwa's cool voice flowed past her ears.

The arm was clearly extended, and the hand was clearly covering the communication device, but there was no neurological reaction of "grabbing something" in Lin Sanjiu's brain.

She opened her fingers blankly and closed them again. The communication device still seemed to be sitting behind a layer of foggy glass, unable to be touched or grasped.

"What are you doing?" Lin Sanjiu suddenly turned her head and asked Nuwa hoarsely.

Nuwa was still sitting where she was, her eyes dark under her eyebrows, like black holes in the distant universe, swallowing up the dim light cast by the screen.

"Your 'action'," she said slowly, "it turns out that you want to summon a big flood before Fusiro and his 'identity' can react."

"Why don't you let me continue?"

For a moment, Lin Sanjiu wished he could take out his whip and swing it at Nuwa - "Are you not satisfied with my answer? Then remove the time freeze and let Fu Xilao continue to kill us. Why did you stop me?" ?”

Nuwa seemed not to hear.

"To summon a great flood, you need to contact...well, Siba'an, is that the name? You need to contact him?"

The three words "Siba'an" rang out from Nuwa's mouth, as if someone had reached into Lin Sanjiu's body and tugged on her nerve endings; the turbulent emotions in her body, like a tsunami, were immediately pulled back. , dare not continue to hit her chest in the face of possible costs.

Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath, withdrew her trembling hand, turned around and looked directly at Nuwa.

"Yes," she tried to keep her voice steady, but the word still trembled several times. While she was thinking, she said: "You said that you don't know everything... So, can I think that, like Fusiro, you haven't discovered Sibaan's existence and location yet?"

Nuwa replied very frankly: "I really didn't find it before. Now, I have some guesses."

Has the time freeze been removed?

Lin Sanjiu was deeply afraid that the "third life" would rush into the cockpit at some point; she had to contact Siba'an immediately. At this critical moment, she didn't know why Nuwa was blocking her. She was anxious and unwilling for a moment, but she had to force herself to calm down as much as possible - "You stopped me because you were curious? You don't have to waste time guessing, I am now I can tell you.”

She suddenly raised her hand toward the spacecraft screen. She couldn't hold back her emotions and heard a "click" in her shoulder joints.

"Did you see the night sky outside?"

Lin Sanjiu stared at Nuwa and said angrily: "He is right there. He and a planetary life form called the Mother King have been staying in outer space for the past few days, waiting for my signal."

Regardless of whether it is Ousias, Fu Xiluo, or Nuwa, who came last, no matter how powerful these people are, they all have one thing in common: their eyes are always focused on Lin San on the ground. Wine group.

Even if they don't look and look for it, there will be things they miss. What's more, the outer space is so vast and boundless, and the barren planets and celestial bodies are floating like dust.

"Fu Xilao didn't know anything about him. I have enough confidence in this." Lin Sanjiu said in a trembling voice, "It's not that I had any foresight and deliberately concealed it... At the beginning, it was just because of Oasis They didn’t leave us a chance to speak.”

Sibaan, who was constantly chasing her in "Space Crossing", finally broke into this layer of the universe shortly after Lin Sanjiu fell back to the Karma Museum - but the person who came into contact with Sibaan first , but it seems to be Yuan Xiangxi.

In fact, Lin Sanjiu didn't know the details of how the two of them met.

Because when she learned of Sba'an's arrival, their group was in Falling Rock City and had been forced to a dead end by Oasis: At that time, Lin Sanjiu had one-third of his body cut off and was lying on the ground, even Even the throat was dug out, and no sound could be uttered; Oasis was waiting in the darkness nearby, waiting for Libao, Qing Jiuliu and Yu Yuan to throw themselves into a trap to save her.

Qingjiu Liu couldn't even tell her the plan to escape; every word they said would be heard by Ousias.

The only way for them to communicate without time and voice is through the copy of Ah Quan; in the memoirs unfolded by the copy of Ah Quan, Lin Sanjiu not only learned about Qing Jiuliu's plan, but also experienced Yu's personal experience. The night when Yuan met the copies of Yuan Xiangxi and Aquan again outside the mountain forest.

At that time, Yu Yuan pointed to the night sky behind Wu Yiliu and said, "Look...the last 'taxi' has just arrived."

After he said these words, Lin Sanjiu saw: Yuan Xiangxi jumped off the aircraft and landed lightly on the ground.

She couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately realized that something was wrong with the scene in front of her.

Indeed, [Interpersonal Taxi] will allow one person after another to send the copy of Ah Quan back to Yu Yuan in the form of a relay; but, Yuan Xiangxi is not a "person"?

Yuan Xiangxi will not be targeted or used by [Interpersonal Taxi]. In other words, was there someone else who actually brought the copy of Ah Quan to this world and made Yuan Xiangxi jump off the ground with it?

Lin Sanjiu stood in that night in Yu Yuan's memory and raised his head in confusion.

The vast night sky, like the sea hanging upside down, is dotted with thick, dark blue clouds, and cool stars are dim and scattered in the sky.

A white moon is immersed in the halo, and the whiteness and shadows on the face are undulating. Next to the moon that she was used to seeing, between the torn clouds, there was a pale brick-red star that she had never seen in the night sky; there was only a half-circle of faint red shadow on one side, like a cosmic cause. My eyes are red from crying.

"...It's the Queen Mother."

Lin Sanjiu whispered, turning towards the night sky outside the boat.

"Once we knew that Siba'an was nearby, we felt confident. When we were escaping separately from Oulius, if we rashly let Ji Shanqing return to the main body, we would probably be killed by Oulius. Sibaan was on the trail... However, if Sibaan's existence was concealed and the mother queen was used as a springboard, his safety factor would be higher; it turns out that Xanthius did not find him after all. At that time, I also thought about it , maybe Sibaan can be used as a trump card to win the game, and help a lot when unexpected."

"However, you probably used the 'Ming Gate' that Gong Daoyi found to kill him later."

When Nuwa mentioned Gong Daoyi, her expression and tone did not change at all, but somehow it made people feel as if she was sighing. Lin Sanjiu thought to herself that she might have misunderstood; Nuwa would not be "sober". "Evil" sighed.

"Yes. After the crisis was resolved, the Exodus ran out of fuel... So I asked Yu Yuan to contact Siba'an and tell him to wait for me. After we have the fuel, we will drive the Exodus to find him together. He was out of order in time He has been looking for me for so long...but due to various circumstances, he can only endure and wait these past few days."

...But I can never wait.

Lin Sanjiu raised her hand and wiped away the wet marks on her face. She didn't want to cry; but she couldn't stop the tears.

"Although Kurosawa Ji and Li Zhijun both know that there will be someone on the ship soon, they don't know where that person is and what's going on with the mother queen... After a long separation, there is already so much to say. , I felt at the time that it was too troublesome to explain, but after a day or two, when they saw it with their own eyes, they would understand everything."

She looked at the communicator again; even though she didn't reach out to try it, she still felt she couldn't reach it.

"Why did you stop me?"

"Your answer is not one of the options I gave, but at present, it is not boring." Nuwa whispered, "Your first step is to use a flood to sweep away the people around you? But? Don't you realize how risky this is?

"Don't say it's just staying away from Fusiro... Even if he dies suddenly, you don't know whether the ability field will disappear. Your relatives and friends are probably just trapped in the same ability field, but they are washed away To another place. What's more, I warned you that after tonight, reunion will be an unattainable fantasy... Even if the area of ​​ability they are trapped in disappears, you may never be able to see them again."

Every word Nuwa said had hit Lin Sanjiu's mind countless times; she couldn't tell for a moment whether it was Nuwa who was speaking or her own pain, which was reverberating inside and outside her body.

She still stood quietly, her eyes fixed on the communicator.

"It's not okay for you to make decisions for them alone on such a life-threatening matter, right?"

Something in Nuwa's voice made Lin Sanjiu's heart skip a beat. Little by little, she turned her head towards Nuwa.

"How about asking them for their personal opinions?"

Nuwa slowly smiled, and the shadows moved and undulated, like a slow lunar eclipse.

"There are eleven people inside and outside the ship here... What I am about to put in front of them is the same multiple-choice question with three options. How about it?"

I remember that after the space crossing episode, many people have been asking when Sibaan will appear. As time goes by, fewer and fewer people ask... I didn't expect that he would appear long ago. Beside!

The eleven people include Si Ba'an and Batou De, not counting Fushiro, I counted correctly (.

In order to prepare for the finale, I have buried a lot of things intermittently, no, foreshadowing. Maybe it felt a bit abrupt (?) when I watched it at the time. I hope that after watching the finale in one go, I can have a sense of "the dust has settled".
