Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 2411 Bohemia’s Request

Anyway, the interaction has taken place and the clearance pass has expired, so it doesn’t matter if we ask more local people to inquire about the situation, right?

Lin Sanjiu felt that there was nothing wrong with her logic, but she could not convince Bohemia.

"If you have anything to ask about, the city lord with a face full of pork tapeworms has told you clearly that he is about to set a trap on the wall. If you don't leave now, why are you wasting your time asking about your mother's natal family? ?”

"It will take time for us to walk from the top of the wall," Lin Sanjiu advised. "The wall is too high. It will take us at least half an hour. What if we are caught in a trap?"

"Smash it, just smash it," Bohemia paused, and the boldness with which he spoke again was obviously at least 70 percent tough. "I've been hit with such a big piece of bad luck like you, why shouldn't I be okay?"

Lin Sanjiu was so annoyed by her that she looked at her a few times and asked, "Why can't you wait to leave?"

"Who can't wait? Why are you so eager to make fart noises?"

"No, you think, our pass pass is invalid," Lin Sanjiu, one head and two older, advised: "Even if you go out, you still have to come in through Beicheng entrance again to get a new pass pass. Now ask If you understand, next time you come in, you can finish it quickly."

Bohemia probably realized now that they were going to come in again, and she looked as if someone had poured jealousy into her nose.

In order for her to nod and admit, "You're right," Lin Sanjiu had to lie down and have a dream first. She accepted Bohemia's acquiescence and quietly came to the edge of the roof again - while they were arguing with each other, under the order of the city lord with the black head, everyone lined up in a circle, Standing with him as the center, the little girl was no longer in her original position.

"Just go find the residents of other districts," Bohemia folded her arms and said, "They seem to be busy soon. 'Put them under their ability', I don't know what they are going to do - forget it, anyway It has nothing to do with me.”

Lin Sanjiu raised his head and looked at her, stunned.

By the way, that night outside... there was something very important and urgent in the night outside... that must be known to Bohemia. But it seemed like she was recalling a long-forgotten dream. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pick up the thoughts and turn them into sounds.

"What do you see me doing?"

As Lin Sanjiu's fear grew stronger and stronger for some reason, Bohemia said, "What they want has nothing to do with me. Are you still leaving? Aren't you going to find someone to find out?"

"Compared to others, that little girl may be more willing to help..."

Before Lin Sanjiu could finish his words, a sharp scream suddenly erupted from the center of the square, shooting straight into the sky—it was indeed "straight into the sky", because the scream seemed to be made up of countless messy, thick black lines. The entangled mass surged up from the city lord's neck, spread rapidly in the air, and covered the entire small square in the blink of an eye.

For a moment, the world seemed to have been scrawled by a child in anger. Wherever he looked, there was only a seething black line that was rolling and expanding, like a mess.

"Get out of the way!"

Lin Sanjiu pushed Bohemia away, and the two of them fell onto the roof; it was as if countless black pen tips scratched countless messy threads from the sky above their heads, entangled, tumbling, and then slid down. In the square. She raised her body and followed the black line with her eyes, just in time to see the target they were rushing toward—the little girl.

At that moment, two things happened at the same time: First, the people covered in black lines in the small square all let out heart-rending screams one after another at the same moment, echoing in waves under the night. .

The black lines covered everyone from head to toe in a messy manner, forming a shape that was roughly drawn with a pen tip and could barely be seen to be a human shape; with unimaginable pain, every human shape was struggling and bending. Waist, stomping feet...the black lines were also hit and twisted into random shapes one after another.

Second, Lin Sanjiu used his consciousness to drag her from the small square to the roof the second before he met the little **** the black line.

"What's going on?" Bohemia pressed her fingers tightly on her ears, and said at the top of her voice amidst the painful cries that surged like ocean waves: "What is this for? My ears are about to burst!"

The little girl climbed up from the roof tremblingly, and quickly lay on the edge to take a quick look - her mother had also turned into a black ball of unidentifiable shape.

She didn't cry or ask for help, as if she knew she was going to see this scene. She sat back with a pale face, covering the side of her face with one hand, as if not looking at the square was the greatest resistance she could do.

"The city lord's ability..." she said blankly: "In the past, only adults could..."

"What ability?" Bohemia saw her opening her mouth, then released her hand from pressing her ears, and asked: "The evolved person has entered the city, what does it have to do with you, why do you need to be tortured?"

The little girl closed her eyes hard. "No, it's because the city lord's 'replacement' ability... is necessary..."

"Did you chop up the sentence? Say it from the beginning and say it completely." Bohemia urged impatiently.

The little girl was startled, but she was really smooth.

"Because we are all ordinary people... so we have no ability to protect ourselves in the face of the City Lord's attack... so we will only continue to suffer, but there is no way to resist and we can't escape. However, even the evolvers can't take advantage of the City Lord. The method, this is what my mother told me, because the city lord is...a person formed by a ball of thread, who will not be injured or bleed, will not be restrained, and will not die."

Her voice was very soft and intermittently, almost inaudible under the painful screams of nearly a hundred people beating their eardrums like waves. "The city lord will extract our pain and powerlessness, and then the pain and powerlessness will be made into part of the trap. When the advanced and evolved people step into the trap, your reaction will be replaced by our reaction at this moment... "

In other words, no matter how powerful they are and how many props they have, once the trap is activated, they will become what ordinary people are like.

Lin Sanjiu and Bohemia looked at each other.

"My mother said," the little girl whispered, "extracting pain and setting traps are done at the same time. Look at the wall over there... towards the south city entrance. Is it a little different?"

The high walls on both sides of the south city entrance are almost pitch black in the night shadow; only when you know where to look and what to look for, you will see a vague, dark wave-like shadow, washing away the entire scene bit by bit. Face high wall.

Starting from the south city entrance, several shadow waves are gradually spreading to both sides - obviously, the city lord's goal is to "wrap" every wall.

"The city lord is fair. We are all from the rotation area... Mom will be drafted every one or two weeks to participate in the preparation of replacement traps. Because the traps can only be used once, if they are triggered, they have to be rearranged."

Just less than a hundred meters away, everyone the girl has known in her life, her mother, neighbors, classmates and friends... are all black lines with distorted call signs, unable to control themselves, but unable to even fall to the ground and faint. group.

But apart from being slightly trembling with fear, she didn't even shed a tear - after all, this was the daily life she was used to.

"W-if only my mother and I could run..."

"How long do you think it will take after all the traps are laid out?" Bohemia suddenly asked Lin Sanjiu, "At that shadow's speed, twenty minutes? Half an hour?"

Lin Sanjiu understood.

She glanced at Bohemia; the latter never looked towards the little square.

"We must leave immediately," Bohemia frowned and said, "There is no way in or out of the North City entrance, so we have to climb over the wall. The city lord has just started to set up a trap. If we speed up, we will definitely be able to get out. .”

What about city dwellers? Ordinary people in this city will suffer torture from time to time... Of course they can leave, but these people can't leave, right?

Lin Sanjiu wanted to ask, but was a little afraid to ask.

"What does it have to do with me?"

She was afraid that if she asked, Bohemia would tell her the answer clearly - "What happened to ordinary people was not caused by me, so why should I care about it?"

Lin Sanjiu didn't understand why she was afraid; it seemed that as long as Bohemia didn't tell her the answer, their lives would continue like a long dream.

She stood up as if sleepwalking, took out the props needed to climb the wall from the card library, and gave them to Bohemia.

The little girl seemed stunned. She looked back and forth between the two of them and asked, "You want to leave?"

"Nonsense, who wants to stay as a tombstone for the NPC?" Bohemia didn't even look at her, lowered her head and tied the climbing rope.

The little girl stopped talking.

"Lin Sanjiu, hurry up," Bohemia said as she was almost reaching the other end of the roof. "The wall on the other side is so **** far away."

Lin Sanjiu turned around and glanced at the little girl they left behind in a daze.

Just when he was about to jump to the next roof, Bohemia paused, turned around and asked, "Are you leaving?"

The little girl was stunned again, "Me?"

"Why don't I ask you and I ask ghosts?"

"I..." The little girl subconsciously followed a few steps, then stopped. She looked at the square and said, "I can't leave...my mother won't be able to find me. We've never left the city...What's it like outside?"

Bohemia turned her head.

"This is your decision."

"Is there really seawater outside?"

Bohemia said "hmm" from her nose, but had no intention of answering.

She seemed to have left the little girl behind, and gestured to Lin Sanjiu, then jumped with all her strength - her long hair and skirt suddenly fluttered in the night sky, like fleeting butterfly wings, on the opposite side The roof slowly closed.

After the two jumped several times in a row, the screams of pain were far away and no longer squeezed and pinched people's nerves; the little girl had long since disappeared outside the high and low buildings.

The trap was not close yet; after they came to the high wall, they did not dare to waste a minute, quickly threw the fixed hook up the wall, and climbed up quickly under the cover of the shadow of the dark night.

"Wait a minute," Lin Sanjiu reached halfway up, glanced back, and called out softly. "Look over there."

They were already in mid-air and could see most of the city. The messy black lines in the small square looked like a layer of fragmented, twisting black smoke from a distance, gradually spreading in all directions - Lin Sanjiu felt that half of the city had gone dark in just the blink of an eye.

"That city lord wants to lay traps all over the city," Bohemia said softly, "No one will be spared."

I'm afraid it's not just about expanding the scope of the trap...

Did the city lord notice their plan?

Perhaps because there are more "raw materials", the expansion speed of the trap has increased at least twice at this moment; the trap and the black line go hand in hand, and wherever they are affected, there will be a fresh, buzzing scream of pain - but soon , the sound will die out, as if the sufferer has exceeded the limit of the sound he can make.

Before they could climb a few more steps, the entire city beneath their feet turned into a rolling black.

Although the wall they climbed was located at the northern city entrance farthest from the city lord, at this speed, it would only take two or three minutes for the trap to hit them.

Looking up, the high wall that has not yet been crossed is still extending straight into the night sky, as if it will never end. Lin Sanjiu and Bohemia were trapped in mid-air. They had no time to move up, and there was no room under their feet.

"What should I do?" Lin Sanjiu asked in a low voice.

Bohemia said nothing. She raised her head and looked at the night sky for the last two or three minutes. Surrounded by high walls, the night sky looks like just a small patch.

"Didn't that kid NPC say that the Evolved One can't do anything against the city lord?" Bohemia held tightly on the climbing rope with one hand, her little face pale and tight, without any expression. "Really ignorant."

She raised her head, her eyes burning brightly in the dark night.

"Is this a dream?"

At that moment, it seemed as if Lin Sanjiu's world had collapsed, broken into pieces, and about to be washed away by the torrent of time.

"Otherwise, I would be really angry."

Bohemia still had a sullen face and said: "I once bought a kind of nail polish that can show various colors and illusions on my fingers. If you stick your hands into the sun, you can see the sea, sunshine, palm trees..."

Lin Sanjiu couldn't make a sound and could only wait quietly.

"I had never seen the sea when I was a child. It was difficult enough to survive at that time. Besides, no one would take me to see it."

Bohemia lowered her eyelashes and whispered: "When I grow up, who will be my next target, wallet, resources and props... I felt at that time that if I could see the fantasy of the sea on my finger, it would be... Enough, this is getting silly.

"You just have a big problem with your brain. We are not related, so why do you pamper me everywhere? Why am I so important? You cook **** and buy dog ​​gifts, why is it your turn to take care of me? I went to see the sea... You gave me everything I wanted, but what if I wanted your life? If you put me in front of the me before, I wouldn't have any skin left. It's all because of you that I have become so soft. Lying down."

She wiped her eyes vigorously.

"How could there be anyone in the world who hasn't seen anything other than this prison?" She said something, as if she was in tears and her thoughts were interrupted. She paused for a few seconds and picked up another topic: "Don't say that. That NPC has never seen the sea... What does they have to do with me? I used to not even care whether my companions survived. Since the trap is ineffective after being triggered once, I will definitely kick it down for you."

Bohemia's hair was stuck to her face with tears. Lin Sanjiu wanted to reach out and smooth it away, but she couldn't loosen the rope and couldn't reach it.

"That city lord can't be hurt or killed, but there are ways to deal with him. I can make him fall into a dream...All that weseeorseem, isbutadreamwithinadream...The last time I used this poem, it was to deal with you.

"But I have to get close to him... get close to the black line that forms him before I can activate the Singer. After I jump down, I don't know whether I will fall into the pain trap first or he will fall into the dream first."

Bohemia looked at the ground under her feet and whispered: "But this is the only way, right? If I don't stake anything, you, everyone, and the people below... will be in trouble, right? How can such a bad thing happen? It’s all on me.”

She raised her head, as if she wanted to make a fierce and threatening expression, and wanted to cry; but in the end she suddenly burst into laughter.

"Lin Sanjiu, I'm leaving." Bohemia's eyes seemed to be filled with honey-colored twinkling sun. "You must come to me."

In fact, a very important reason why I don’t want to write about everyone’s dreams in detail is because everyone knows that it is a dream, and they also know what Lin Sanjiu’s friends will choose, so no matter how I design the plot, it will not feel real and tense. . (The opposite is why the ending of the dream is so bad, all the emotions are wasted)

So I think the key point of the dream is that everyone relives the memories, emotions, and changes since they met Lin Sanjiu, and what kind of mood they had when bidding farewell to her.

But even so, I can’t repeat it eleven times in a row... In short, I hope I can express the key points...
