The Death Knell

It is often said that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you.

This is actually the most classic statement in idealism, because the first person to put it forward was Nietzsche, the one who called himself the sun and believed that without himself, the world that belongs to him would be destroyed.

From a certain perspective, there is nothing wrong. If a person dies, there is naturally no so-called possession. When the world owns a person, the person also owns the world.

The same goes for stories.

But to Su Ming, the abyss didn't matter. After all, compared to the void, it was as bright as a star.

As for the topic of concepts, we did not continue because no matter how much Deadpool emphasized his handsomeness, other men could not see it. Perhaps only those with heavy taste like Lucifer could smell his beauty.

Just as the two people and the cat were walking through the golden light, talking nonsense, the surrounding environment changed. In an instant, the man and the cat were standing on the side of the road.

Originally, the undersea entrance of the Pacific Rim World should be connected to the Pioneer World, but now it is obviously not the case.

Two people and a cat were standing on the roadside. Next to them was a station sign with '1' written on it. The sign was a bit old and rusty, and it was shaking slightly with the strong wind.

The road is not wide, but it seems to have no end, stretching from one end of the field of vision to the horizon at the other end.

There was nothing behind them, just an endless black wasteland. On the other side of the road, except for a fire hydrant, it was also a vast wasteland.

"The road is very ordinary, asphalt."

Su Ming began to check the situation. He asked Strangler to stretch out his tentacles to explore the other side. At the same time, he told his cousin and the cat what he had discovered:

"The stop sign is just an iron sheet, the fire hydrant opposite has no water, there is no sewer under the road, and there is no place for drainage at all."

Deadpool clasped his buttocks and nodded repeatedly, seeming to have benefited a lot from these investigation conclusions, but after tearing off a piece of dead skin and shuddering comfortably, he said:

"Yeah, yeah, but there is a question, Slade, where is the person we want to kill?"

Yes, this is a problem. Logically speaking, after passing through the wormhole, you should enter the world of the pioneers. If you are lucky, you may encounter the big mouth of the Kaiju beast, or some equipment for cultivating Kaiju beasts. It's so treey.

But no matter what, it shouldn't be a highway.

Looking up at the sky, the sky was gloomy, as if it was going to rain.

As soon as I thought of this, heavy rain began to pour down. The rain was silver and quickly gathered on the streets, like the sea being dumped.

The road was flooded, and the silver water covered the curb stones and their feet, and quickly spread upwards.

The big cat shrunk itself into a smaller figure and nimbly climbed onto Deathstroke's shoulder. It squatted there, stretched its neck and looked at the water. There was some confusion in its eyes, but it was not because of the heavy rain.

It can change this place with just one thought, but the death knell didn't speak, which meant that he had to look again. The cat was curious about what the man was thinking at this time.

"Understood!" Deadpool hit his palm with his fist, took out a light bulb from his trouser pocket and put it on top of his head to light it up: "This world is a huge water prison. We were tricked into being imprisoned. Soon, the mercury will The stress gets under our skin and turns us into fake Oscar Silvers like the Silver Slider.”

"There is no second prize in the Oscars, and this is either mercury, or ordinary water." Su Ming bent down and dug out a handful with his hands, then rubbed it in his palms to show his cousin: "They are silver, but they are pure water." , h2o, and no other impurities at all.”

"Oh, it's okay then." Wade shrank his neck and twisted a few times in embarrassment. It seemed that he had guessed wrong.

"Death Knell, what are we going to do next?" The cat clung to his shoulder, and its soft voice reached the man's ears, as gentle as a small brush.

"This is a game prepared for me by the Hand of Nothingness. He feels that I can't kill him, and he also feels that he can't kill me, so he probably wants to talk to me."

Deathstroke let go of his hand, and the rain fell from his palm.

At this time, the water had already submerged to the knees, and everything nearby became like a mirror, except for the ripples of falling rain.

"So?" The cat turned into big and small eyes.

"So the answer lies in the question, where is this place? It's a bus stop, and a game doesn't have any prompts, so what we have to do is actually wait for the bus."

Su Ming patted the cat's head calmly, and raised his finger to point to the rusty sign next to him. This kind of stop sign is a very common interstate highway stop sign, with a steel pipe connected to an iron plate. Because it is too common, there are many People may not pay attention to its details.

It does not write the originating station and the terminal station, it just writes "1". Does this mean bus No. 1? Or does it mean that waiting for the bus here is the first step?

In short, it's just a simple puzzle game. If ** were here, the monkey head would definitely not ask such a question.

"Do we need to play according to his ideas?" The cat stretched out its paws, revealing its pointed nails, and seemed to be accompanied by a flash of cold light: "I have torn down his world, how about catching mice according to my rules? Sample?"

"Are you going to play with him or with me? Pay attention, I'm going to find him now."

Su Ming glanced at the cat speechlessly, took off the mask, covered it with his hand and lit a cigarette for himself:

"If you modify this world and it fails to achieve its goal, it will not appear. This is like the setting of a certain type of game. Before the first goal is achieved, the npc will not be refreshed. Compared with solving puzzles, Come on, I don’t even want to catch mice.”

"I'm just telling you." The cat stretched out its little tongue and licked Deathstroke's face, and called out softly like a baby: "Meow, let's just wait for the car. Don't worry, with me here, he can't hurt him. your turn."

"I know." Su Ming exhaled a puff of smoke. At this time, the silver rain had already covered his waist. He was still very calm: "Because I can leave at any time."

But having said that, this water is really cold. The last time I felt the rain in my heart was so cold, it was the few minutes I stood on top of a tall building when I first crossed over.

"It's boring, there's no car, gun and ball game, it's boring." Deadpool leaned against the station sign, smacked his mouth and yawned: "There are too few people waiting for the bus, can't there be some beauties in swimsuits? It's been said on TV that swimsuits are more suitable for rainy days. I don't think this game is fun, but if he is willing to listen to me, he can probably save it."

Maybe Deadpool's proposal was recognized, or maybe the time had come. When the water was up to their necks, a bus came from a distance.

Yes, there are really no beauties in swimsuits, but there are shabby buses that look like they are still drifting on the water.

It would be even better if there were a bunch of black Americans with guns in the car.
