Doomsday Wonderland

The world above the 23rd world?

Lin Sanjiu stood in the dark night, dazed for a moment.

Her ears heard, her eyes saw, her brain refused to accept.

There seemed to be a nerve in my head that was beating violently, causing pain in my head. How could Badou De be turned into an "identity"?

The last time she heard the word "identity" was—

Like a drowning man grabbing a lifeline, Lin Sanjiu suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Little Green Crane!"

Fu Xilao tilted her head slightly and said, "Huh?"

"A person who has changed his identity can also return to his original state, right? He is my friend,"

Lin Sanjiu grabbed Badou De, pulled the numb and heavy body forward, and said: "There is a girl named Little Green Crane, who was once transformed into an identity by Xiusius. But she Later he escaped and returned to normal. If you lift it immediately——"

Fu Xilao in the night still tilted his head and stared at her without moving.

Lin Sanjiu stood still. For a moment of confusion, she did not dare to look down. If she lowered her head, perhaps she would find that there was no earth beneath her feet, and that she was standing in the rising cold sea.

"Release Batou De's status," she whispered, "now."

This time, it was no longer a discussion tone.

Fusiro let out a low sigh, raised his hand, and rubbed his face vigorously a few times, as if he was very tired and unwilling to enter the next conversation.

"Sorry, no."

He smiled bitterly and said: "So Oasis's 'identity' can still escape and recover? His strength is really worse than I thought."

"What do you mean? It can't be relieved?" Lin Sanjiu tried his best to suppress his voice from trembling, and asked: "Ba Toude is my friend. Are you going to tell me that he will be a walking corpse from now on? "

"It can be lifted," Fu Xiluo lowered his eyelids, his long eyelashes casting a shimmering and undulating dark night lake. "...But I won't lift it."

Lin Sanjiu was silent for a few seconds. Her nails dug into the skin of her fists, and the pain made her want to cry.

"Why?"

"I have developed his abilities to a point where even I am a little afraid. If I let him go, he might erase all the effects I had achieved before..." Fusiro raised his hand and scratched his hair. Her soft curly hair fell down, half covering her eyebrows. He lowered his head and said with a nasal voice: "It took a lot of effort for me... to get you and everyone ready."

Lin Sanjiu's next question was already in her chest, but she didn't dare to ask it; it was like she was standing in front of a closed door and already vaguely knew what she would see behind the door.

After a moment, she finally reached out and pushed the door open.

"...What do you mean by 'preparation'?"

"Let you and everyone believe that there is still a world above the world." After Fusiro said this, he paused and corrected himself: "No, 'believe' is not accurate yet. I don't want to simply You guys are brainwashing me...that’s not what I want.”

"Then what do you want?"

Fu Xiluo seemed a little at a loss and smiled softly.

But when he spoke, his voice was calm without any hesitation.

"I hope you can 'accept' this. I hope that after thinking about it, in the mood of expectation, hope, all-or-nothing, and having no choice, you can accept it, believe in it, and put everything on it in the end. "

After a few seconds, Lin Sanjiu said in a daze: "It's just like... just like your mother's mentality when she faced it that night."

This is not a question.

Fu Xilao nodded.

"All of us...how many hours did we listen to the broadcast on the spaceship before we finally reached the state you wanted?" Lin Sanjiu asked almost blankly.

Fu Xiluo rubbed his shoulders and neck tiredly, put his hand on his neck, and tilted his head.

"Nearly seven hours, right?"

She lost seven hours without realizing it? When I think about it this way, it seems that even the world has become unreal.

"But... I obviously only heard it once before I reacted."

After she heard the broadcast, she sent a paper crane to call Ji Shanqing; during the conversation between the two, she noticed something was wrong and deduced that the voice behind the broadcast was Batou De's voice... Isn't that the case?

No, no, not just once.

Lin Sanjiu suddenly remembered that when she met Kurosawa Ji, he was very angry and said, "No matter how hard I turn off the radio, I wake people up again and again."

"Whether you realize you're being influenced by radio or not, it doesn't matter."

Fu Xiluo said softly: "I improved his abilities again and again, allowing him to complete a road of upgrade overnight that others could not complete in decades, so now his ability performance is completely different. Hmm...how should I put it? Let’s use an analogy.”

He released his hand from his neck and spread out his long, pale fingers in the dark night like a deep lake.

"It's like..." He looked at his hand and said: "I have completed a hand sculpture. It is exquisite and complex and perfectly reproduces all the details I need. When you look at it, of course you may You think, it's a sculpture. But that doesn't matter, even if you know it's a sculpture, you still subconsciously have the impression of a hand. For me, that's enough."

"Why?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help it.

He suddenly raised his head, and for a moment, Lin Sanjiu almost suspected that she had been thrown back to that night - the dark night sky opened up, far-reaching and vast, as if another world had opened its eyes and was looking at her coldly.

"In the first few years after I evolved, I thought of many ways, and I tried countless means to rediscover the world above the world."

Fu Xiluo looked at Lin Sanjiu without blinking and whispered.

She didn't know what had changed, but Lin Sanjiu began to slowly feel it - when she faced Oulius, she felt like she couldn't stand up, couldn't look at him, but couldn't turn her eyes away, as if he was suffocating. hopeless.

No, it was far stronger and less breathable than it was then... Fusiro didn't even have any hostility.

"I'm still standing here today, naturally, because all my past attempts have failed."

Fu Xiluo's hand slowly slipped from the night and fell silently back into the darkness.

"If I can't go to the 'world above the world', I don't know what meaning there is left in this life. Everything I have to do in order to survive is tedious and boring, and the people I meet in the apocalypse are all disgusting. When I was so disappointed that I didn't even have the strength to stand up from the ground, I finally decided to create the 'Lord of Li' and give my body to him."

His eyes lingered on Lin Sanjiu, and he suddenly broke into a smile.

"Fortunately, God has been kind to me. When I woke up, I suddenly found that the people around me were different this time..." He thought for a while and said: "You, Kurosawa Ji, Yuan Xiangxi, Bohemia...and everyone on board, are warm and clean."

Fu Xiluo rolled his eyes, smiled sincerely and said, "I like you very much. I like you the most, Xiaojiu."

Just like a child, without any shyness or worry, he will express his love calmly.

"you listen to me,"

Lin Sanjiu's heart suddenly moved, as if these words gave her a little strength, and she could move and speak again. "You want to find the 'world above the world', no problem, we will go with you to find it. The apocalyptic world is so big, there are always places you haven't been and clues you haven't found. That night your mother was just protecting you, You - you are probably just hallucinating. The 'world above the world' waiting for us in the future may be something you have never imagined..."

Fu Xiluo sighed hoarsely and lowered her eyelashes again.

"Don't you believe what I saw with my own eyes?" He whispered, "That's no wonder, you have never seen the world in the cracks in the sky."

"You were greatly shocked and traumatized at that time. Your mother——"

"Yes, I know." Fu Xiro responded almost lazily, with a heavy nasal voice. "I'm not twelve years old anymore. I have thought that her initial motive for what she said might just be that she didn't want me to look back."

Lin Sanjiu looked at him blankly.

"But her original motive is irrelevant." Fu Xiluo whispered, "Because she didn't expect that she happened to meet the most important conditions, allowing the world above the world to open in front of me."

Lin Sanjiu didn't understand for a moment. "……condition?"

Fu Xiluo suddenly turned his head away and slowly took a few steps back. When he stopped, he happened to be standing in the shadow of a dark cloud. "Didn't you ask me how I would go to the world above this world?"

Lin Sanjiu looked at the silhouette of a figure who was far away from her, and then looked back at Exodus under the night.

"When I woke up and saw you, I finally understood why all my previous attempts had failed."

Fu Xiluo raised his head, UU reading www.uukanshu.net looking at the night sky, the wind rolled up his hair, like willow branches swaying on the lake. "In order for the 'world above the world' to open up in front of me again, I need to meet certain conditions and make that night happen again."

She was able to squeeze out a sentence from her throat as if she had been given anesthesia: "...What are the conditions?"

“One, my birthday night.

"Two, I want someone important, just like my mother that night, who also accepts and believes in the 'world above the world'."

Fusiro slowly opened his arms and let the wind blow up his large coat. For a moment, he looked like he was almost going to take off in the wind.

"Three, someone important to me died not far from me."

Ah, I finally got to this point! Well, so Fu Xiluo is actually a villain, and he is a paranoid and obsessive villain (?) after suffering severe childhood trauma... In fact, the foreshadowing was laid in 2383. Lin Sanjiu said in that chapter, I always believe in the world above the world (Kurosawa Ji is also in that chapter). But maybe my foreshadowing is like the money buried by my ancestors. It’s too deep and no one has found it yet (
