Doomsday Jigsaw Game Chapter 165: : Inheritance of Heroes
In the streets and alleys of Shicheng more than seven hundred years ago, the life and death escape initiated by monsters and humans unfolded.
When seeing an idiot who stopped running away as if giving up on himself, and even took the initiative to attract the monster's attention, some of the students in this group were ecstatic, and some had a sore nose.
But no one stopped.
Whether it was because they simply didn't want to die, or because they didn't want to disappoint someone, they didn't stop running.
The lizard-like monster outruns them all, and the only hope for the group of students is to run into some rough terrain and hide - and then hope to follow the monster to find new prey.
While running wildly, someone had a premonition that Lin Rui's wail might be heard soon, or maybe... he didn't even have time to utter the wail?
Just as they were thinking this way, a strong sense of shock came.
Cheng Shishi, who was running in the front, accidentally fell down on her leg. She subconsciously turned her head and saw an incredible scene.
Huge shocks came continuously, making the whole street feel like a slight earthquake. Everyone thought that a more powerful monster had appeared, and subconsciously looked back because they were afraid.
Afterwards, everyone's expressions were the same as Cheng Shishi's, frozen in shock.
That huge lizard was being grabbed by its tail with brute force by a strange man wearing a mask and a black robe, repeating the beating movements constantly!
They don't know the pain the lizard endured, but looking at the cracks in the ground collapse, they understand how terrifying the power of this masked monster is——
The force that made the earth tremble was actually caused by a human being!
The lizard is about to let out a piercing cry, a rare entry related to sound waves.
But before the sound came out, the masked monster predicted the movement. It was obviously a human hand, but it was like a sharp ax that ripped open the belly. It easily broke through the defense and penetrated directly into the lizard as if covered by armor. throat, tore off its vocal cords.
This **** scene made all the students terrified, but they burst out with a strong joy of life!
They just feel that everything in front of them is too shocking.
"This is... Could this be..." Fei Bo couldn't believe his eyes.
"How is it possible that the masked monster really exists? That idiot... What Lin Rui has always believed in is actually true?"
"It's too strong, is this a hero! It's too strong, wow!" Brother Shui raised his bat, expressing his excitement. He seems to have forgotten that he is the one who teases the masked geek the most on weekdays.
Seeing the crushing defeat of the lizard and the familiar mask, they finally believed that a miracle had happened!
Lin Rui burst into tears. At this moment, he wanted to hug Bai Wu's thigh excitedly, to see if he was hallucinating because he was about to die.
Until the lizard's body smelled of blood, until Bai Wu turned around, stretched out another clean hand, and pulled Lin Rui up.
He was finally convinced that the masked monster really appeared!
"Are you... are you really... really a masked monster?"
Lin Rui was trembling, and looked more frightened than seeing Evil, but he was not afraid, but excited and couldn't restrain his body.
"It's true. Let's go, let's go there together and tell your friends about the situation. This city is very dangerous now. If you want to live, you have to learn to save yourself."
Lin Rui just felt that everything was so unreal.
This kind of luck is not for everyone.
The feeling of being saved by something you believe in is probably like all the bitterness in memory like frost and snow, suddenly all turned into golden sunshine.
Bai Wu can probably understand the overflowing happiness in this child's heart.
In his previous life, he also liked to watch Ultraman, although every time he was abused by his father, he kept repeating the name of the monster.
At that time, he also hoped that he could be saved.
He still remembers one time, because he couldn't bear the sadness of not being recognized by his father, he made a phone call.
That's the phone number of the Space Guard in the Tokusei drama - an empty number that can't be reached at all.
This is really a strange thing to say, obviously at that time, under the perverted teaching of his father, he was already better than many of his peers.
Obviously he knew in his heart that some things didn't exist, but he still made a phone call out of nowhere. I can't say why, and I don't know what I am looking forward to.
This can be regarded as one of the few childish actions he made when he was young.
Many things later also showed that no one will save himself. Only by constantly fulfilling his father's requirements, enduring and even getting used to all kinds of pain and torture.
Then look for an opportunity to stay away from that man.
No one redeemed him in childhood. There is also no one to redeem the young boy. But he was able to understand the feeling of being redeemed.
…
…
The next thing was that a group of people rushed over excitedly. Everyone wanted to ask a lot of questions because they were rescued and because they saw an incredible existence.
For example, why the masked monster disappeared in the past few years.
Bai Wu didn't know the reason, how could he know the reason why there was a weird guy who likes to wear a smiling face mask appearing and disappearing for a while.
Deep in his heart, he was inclined to say that the masked man was dead.
But to this group of students who are not much younger than him, Bai Wu still told a white lie:
"In the distance you don't know, there are people who need my protection even more. I just went to a far away place."
This lie easily deceived everyone, and Lin Rui was very moved, because the hero never slacked off, and was just doing similar things in other places.
He is glad that he did not let go of his childishness.
The truth is actually very cruel, but there is no need for the truth here... What builds this world is just an obsession.
After answering many questions, Bai Wu knew that this world would soon dissipate.
History has not been rewritten, but at least in this phone booth world, he hopes that this ordinary boy can live as long as possible.
They asked so many questions, but no one said thank you to Lin Rui. It seems that Lin Rui rushing up to block the monster is not worthy of respect.
Because the real masked geek appeared, the crisis was easily dismantled. So even the efforts of that fool became cheap.
Thinking of this, Bai Wu patted Lin Rui on the shoulder:
"Today's hero is not me. If you hadn't stood in front of everyone and shouted loudly, maybe I wouldn't have rushed here. You are very brave, remember your determination to die for your friends today."
"I am just a symbol. When I appear in this city, maybe people will have hope again, but what about after I leave? Maybe not long after, they will mock others' inner beliefs. After all, not everyone Once, we can all be saved by others."
Bai Wu took off his mask:
"This world is dying a little bit, and there are still many places where more twisted and evil monsters are raging in cities, and there are still many weak humans waiting for salvation. It's a pity that I can't follow you all the time, so you Be more powerful. Be more calm and calm in the face of danger.”
"Don't be afraid of evil and desperation, but face it with courage and wisdom. This process may be long, but when you can adapt, you are already a hero."
The face behind the mask perfectly fits people's fantasy of a hero.
At this moment, Bai Wu's smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, and he gently pressed the mask on the young man's forehead:
"I will give this mask to you. From today onwards, you will take on the responsibility of protecting them. Can you do it?"
The humble boy grew up at this moment, as if all the luck in his life had been exhausted, he should have accepted the mask handsomely, but still couldn't help nodding and crying.
At the same time, Bai Wu noticed that the eyes of the people around Lin Rui had also changed.
At this moment, they realized that when everyone was thinking about their own survival, it was Lin Rui who stood in front of them.
The things in the scene dissipated like puzzle pieces again. This means that Lin Rui's obsession has dissipated.
Bai Wu didn't know if this boy could lead this group of people to survive, after all, they were not qualified to go to the tower.
According to the objective law of history, they will eventually die.
But at least from this moment on, in the parallel world of the telephone booth, he has become the successor of the masked monster. It has nothing to do with strength, only determination.
When the consciousness is about to leave this world and return to the phone booth, the eyes start to play again:
【Is there an inevitable connection between me and the universe? Is there an end to the universe? Is there a length of time? Where does the past time disappear from? Where does future time stop? Is the question I am asking at this moment the same question you just heard? Cause and effect are very interesting things, because we don't know whether we have changed the cause or the effect unintentionally~ But what is certain is that if the cause is changed, the effect will also change accordingly. 】
Another strange conclusion, but it doesn't matter, he has long been used to this style of eyes.
Bai Wu's consciousness quickly returned to reality.
In reality, the phone booth gradually became transparent little by little, and gradually disappeared. Once again, he successfully resolved an incoming call, but what lingered in his ears was not the sound of the phone calls around him one after another.
It was Yin Shuang's whisper:
"White mist...how did the phone booth disappear?"
"Are you awake? The game we are playing now is called Gold Medal Customer Service. The people on the other end of the phone will ask us for help or have some problems. As long as they can solve their needs, the phone booth will disappear."
Bai Wu still carries Yin Shuang on her back, Yin Shuang's white and slender arms are wrapped around Bai Wu's neck, her consciousness has not yet fully awakened. It's like the pain in memory, with a slight remnant.
Bai Wu didn't care, and was going to the next phone booth.
"Tell me about what happened to you on the phone."
It was not Bai Wu who made this request, but Yin Shuang. Bai Wu originally wanted to ask why Yin Shuang answered the phone.
But ladies first, while carrying Yin Shuang on his back, he talked about what happened in the two phone booths in extremely concise language.
Listening to the story that Bai Wu had just experienced, Yin Shuang's eyes were complicated.
"Is that so... I hope they can die well in the world of phone booths."
"Well, that's it, it's strange, why these phones suddenly stopped ringing."
After Bai Wu solved the first call, many calls rang at the same time. This feeling was like accidentally giving a copper coin to a beggar on the side of the road, and a large group of beggars flocked in to ask him to be kind.
But after solving the second call, Bai Wu found that all the phones around him had stopped ringing.
The eyes didn't give an answer, and he couldn't figure out why this kind of thing happened, so he and Yin Shuang started to walk forward.
Fortunately, he was also curious about who Yin Shuang had called, so he asked:
"The negative attributes on your body have disappeared, and now I have time to pass both."
"Thank you."
"Listen to you, weak, what happened on the phone? It feels like a serious injury."
"Actually, it's nothing... Dreams, some of them feel more real. After having a nightmare, you will have a lingering fear after waking up."
Not waiting for Bai Wu to continue asking questions, Yin Shuang said:
"Bai Wu, have you really lost your memory?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Is it because of some painful experience when I was a child, because I don't want to recall it, so I lost my memory?"
"I'll tell you a joke."
"Joke?"
"Well, do you know Mengpo soup?"
"After death, what to drink before reincarnation can forget everything in the previous life?"
"Yes, that's it. Granny Meng has worked in the underworld for countless years. One day she didn't want to do it anymore, so she told her boss Yan Luo that she wanted to resign. Yan Luo said, "Thank you for your hard work. After working for so long, let's drink a bowl of soup." Well, after finishing drinking, go to the Personnel Office to go through the resignation procedures. As a result, Po Meng forgot that she was going to resign after drinking the soup, so she just kept going in circles, living like a model worker for countless years.”
"This...isn't funny, it's so cold."
Bai Wu said:
"It's hard for people to realize what they've forgotten. I'll show you a magic trick to make you forget the five hundred tas you owe me."
"When did I owe you five hundred tas?"
"Look, the magic is working, and you've forgotten it."
This time Yin Shuang smiled.
Bai Wu also laughed and said:
"I don't like to talk about my past with people. How can I talk about what I don't have? I really don't remember what I went through before."
This sentence is not an absolute lie, at least Bai Wu does not have the memory of this body.
God knows how this nine-point-worthy body got mixed up as a little beggar, and was eventually sold to a casino as a slave.
Yin Shuang recalled the content on the phone~IndoMTL.com~hesitating what to say to Bai Wu.
They still had plenty of time, and from far away, relying on his powerful companion force, he heard the phone call.
Bai Wu was really looking forward to where the next call would take him. The first two calls seemed to indicate that this was a port city that was about to be completely abandoned.
The port is the boarding point of the Ark Plan where countless people are full of hope in the era before the tower.
The time points of Wen Hao and Lin Rui are also compatible, except that one is a child who boarded the ship and was abandoned by his parents, and the other is a student who has no chance to board the ship and wanders around the city with a group of friends to search for survival resources.
Why they turned into phone booths is still an unknown mystery. Will have to answer more calls to find out:
"By the way, what exactly did you answer the phone call? Tell me and I will analyze it for you. Maybe you can find the problem in this area as soon as possible."
Yin Shuang said:
"Let me down, I don't need to carry it on my back."
Bai Wu put Yin Shuang down, he felt Yin Shuang's attitude was weird, Yin Shuang looked at Bai Wu, and subconsciously thought of the perverted middle-aged man's words——
Bai Wu, you are a failure. Is that Bai Wu's father? If so... the white mist must have been very uncomfortable at that time, right? Perhaps this sentence hurt him more than those needle pricks.
She was very afraid of bringing up bad memories of Bai Wu, but after thinking about it several times, Yin Shuang felt that this phone call was very strange, no matter from every angle, she should tell Bai Wu and let him analyze the reason.
After the car was silent for a few seconds, she said softly:
"I got your call."
