Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 129: The Scarlet Knight
"Sentence? Here?" Billy looked forward and backward. The dark metal scene almost melted in the dim vision, and the visibility was less than twenty meters. It’s not like a torture place here, it’s just a section of the passage. Maybe the Doomsday Truth or some organization before the Doomsday Truth escorted people in. When they arrived here, there was an accident, so killing people here, that’s justified. However, Zhenjiang meant that they specially executed prisoners here.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a special execution room.
However, although Zhenjiang's description is not vivid, her cold voice, matched with the gloomy environment, seems to make people witness those tragic scenes with their own eyes. The cruelty and indifference of the executioners, the despair and fear of the slaughterers, produced a disgusting smell remaining on the mottled metal, which cannot be completely washed away even by time.
"There must be something we didn't notice." Mae said.
"Is it still in use now?" I asked.
"No, it shouldn't be used for a long time." Mae thought for a while and said.
I tried to look for possible footprints on the ground with my sight.
"Should we stay here?" Billy said, and he seemed to be consulting me and Mae.
"I have a feeling, this is the end of the channel degradation." I said
"In other words, this place is a dividing line?"
I didn't answer from Ranwen Novel. I just took out the gray stone to replenish energy.
Billy squeezed his chin and thought about it, and said, "It's okay to take a break. To be honest, I'm really curious about what's hiding here."
"Maybe there is nothing at Ranwen Novel. It's just a waste of effort." I said, "Contact us to see how they are doing."
Billy responded and walked aside to contact the team. After a while, he walked over and told me that the team was acting as planned and so far everything went well.
Mae walked to the wall and suddenly scratched with the sole of his shoe. She seemed to have discovered something, calling us to the past. She pointed to that place, the light was too weak, and it was so close to the corner of the wall, if she didn't open her eyes wide, she really couldn't see it.
There are some letters skewedly engraved there, and there is an invisible pattern, like a gear, with a cross in the middle, like a symbol of a certain religion.
"What's it written?" Billy asked. Those letters were not in English. It looks like it was left by the victims, who looked hurried and frightened between the gestures, but left something, perhaps a last word.
"It's in German. There are many missing parts. It is to describe the Apocalypse..." Zhenjiang said, unexpectedly she knew German. "This place seems to have been an altar. A sect sealed the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. A blood sacrifice is performed here to calm their anger. Their behavior hinders the mission of the Four Horsemen and is a blasphemy against the gods. The sacrificed confessed before death."
"Apocalypse?"
"I know, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. It is said that at the end of the world, there will be a Lamb who will unlock the seven seals of the scroll and call for knights riding on four horses War, famine, and death will bring human beings to the final judgment. Then the world will be out of balance, the sun and the moon will change color, and then the world will be destroyed.” After returning from the doomsday illusion, I searched for many documents about the end of the myth.
"Seal the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? Here? In other words, they think the Four Horsemen have been summoned?" Billy should also be familiar with this allusion, so he found it ridiculous, "Which one is insane? The guy’s delusion, if the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ever appeared in the past, this world is not what it is now. I don’t think anyone can seal the Four Horsemen, they appear to represent the failure of mankind. And...the words here don’t seem to burn. Wenshuo.com is so many that it can convey such detailed meaning."
"I guess." Mae said.
Billy looked at each other immediately.
At this moment, there was vibration from the ground, and a slight metal bang sounded like a piano. This slight change made us all stop the action at hand. The vibration became stronger and stronger, as if the channel was in an earthquake zone, the rusty pieces on the walls and ceiling fell off, and the metal impact sound became noisier and louder.
The air becomes warm unknowingly, and the heat also starts from the soles of the feet, and the temperature gets higher and higher.
"Go!" Billy yelled. We wanted to run forward, but a strange sight appeared in front of us. Driven by a certain force, the fallen rust was all suspended, and then absorbed by the suction generated by a rotation from the front. The dense suspended matter outlined a spiral trajectory and concentrated at a certain point in the front.
The point expanded rapidly, forming a gate in the blink of an eye, cutting off the passage.
I pulled the trigger of the suitcase and fired two small rockets. The rocket plunged headlong into the gate. It is more vividly said that it was swallowed by the gate that was not strong, but was like quicksand. In the next moment, the shock waves and fireworks produced by the explosion just swelled the door and was completely digested.
"Stand back, get out of here!"
We all started to run in the direction we came from, but as before, just after less than ten meters after running, an iron fence fell and blocked the way.
Yes, it's not a metal wall, but an iron fence, which fits the gloomy style here, and is also rusty. The mechanism has also degraded along with the passage.
Billy drew a dogleg knife and slammed it against the fence. The fence didn't move, but there was a "chuck" somewhere, confused by the chaotic and huge metal crash, almost inaudible.
"Get out of there, Billy!" Billy was already on the ground when I sensed the danger and shouted a warning. In front of him, a dozen holes appeared in the walls on both sides of him, and a row of arrows shot suddenly, staggered and nailed to the other wall.
"Below." Mae's voice came from behind.
Snatch.
Build a high channel back and forth between Billy and me.
When I dragged Billy back, rows of spikes were slowly rising from the ground where he was.
Billy and I left the high world, but Mae grabbed our collar and pulled back.
"Don't stop, there are all traps!"
Another rain of arrows fell from above. I moved and swept again, constructing a circling corridor with the space of the entire passage.
Running on the high corridor, we almost touched all the traps. For most people, there may be no dead ends in these series of traps, but by moving high, you can grasp the time difference before and after the trap moves, and you can pass the killing weapon that is slowly flying in the air.
When I stopped again, I had returned to the place I had not retreated. The ten-meter-long passage in front of me was like a mouthpart with sharp teeth, hideous and sinister. After a few seconds, the sharp teeth that bite people gradually retracted into the wall, and became harmless to humans and animals.
We didn't have time to take a breath, when the ground suddenly shot hot light, and the meandering light formed the cracked surface. The cracked place finally peeled off one by one, and the larger light that followed pushed our shadow onto the passage. We watched the changes in the soles of our feet intently, and suddenly discovered that after all the cracks were peeled off, we were standing on a huge iron net.
Under the mesh, there is a hole at least a hundred meters deep, a huge gear machine, rotating in the melting flames, making a sound.
These gears are exactly the same as the logo engraved by the victim. There are gear teeth on the outside and a cross in the middle. The huge tongue of flames kept licking the gears, but the gears that looked as stale as the passage did not melt, and the mottled rust on his body gave out a strange brilliance, as if showing off his scars.
Under the flames, there was a river of lava flowing with crimson light, making it impossible to look directly at it.
"This is...what the hell." Billy was dumbfounded. I also felt unbelievable for a while, this place would have such a large-scale scenery, and there is magma.
"Is this location an extinct volcano?"
The trap has been lifted, but our situation at this time is not good. No Ranwen Novel Network was attacked for the time being, but the front and back roads were blocked, and there was only a barbed wire fence that didn't seem very reliable. Once it fell into the ground, there must be no bones left. The door made of rust in front stood quietly, its style was very simple, but it exuded a breathtaking breath. There is no keyhole on the door. If you use violence, you may be swallowed like the previous rockets.
When the passage was intact, we thought that the outside of the passage was full of solid stones and soil, but now the ground of the passage has become a wire mesh, instead, we can see the appearance of the area where we are. This is a huge pit formed by no manpower. Both ends are rock masses. This tunnel is erected above the tiankeng like an overpass. The bottom of the tiankeng is the gear machinery and the tumbling magma, and we are in The location is not in the middle of the tunnel, and behind the gate ten meters ahead is within the rock formation.
I know I guessed it correctly. This tunnel is the end point. Passing through that gate will be a completely different place.
Mae’s statement was also confirmed. After the wall could no longer block the line of sight, we saw other parts of the altar. Strips of tubes meander from under the feet to the rock wall, spreading like a huge pattern into the magma, as if there is an unimaginable horror in the depths of the magma, drawing nutrients through these vein-like conduits.
What are those rotating gears for? No one can tell. When was this magnificent facility and who built it? No one knows. In short, it was definitely not formed overnight. Many people have been here, and now it seems to be abandoned, but those strange structures are still working and seem to be able to operate forever.
It was a miracle, Billy murmured.
"What should I do now?" I asked him.
"Go forward. Anyway, I want to know what the end of this place is." Billy said, hesitating, and asked: "Do you think the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are really sealed under this one? ?"
"I don't know." I said: "Even if they did, they didn't break free. This is at least the best news so far."
"You are right."
"The Doomsday Truth has been playing around here for so long, I am curious what conclusions they have come to." Mae said, "It looks like they gave up this lot."
The secret may be hidden behind that door. As I said so, Billy and Mae followed my gaze and cast them on the door that didn't know what it was.
Mae suddenly walked forward.
"A Jiang?"
"I want to open it."
Billy and I hurried to catch up. Zhenjiang led us until it was only one meter away from the gate before stopping. There was no unexpected change, and there was no attack that Ranwen.com imagined. The door that was like a living thing before is like a real door at this moment, without any sound from Ranwen Novel.com.
"What are you going to do?" Billy asked.
Mae didn't answer from Ranwen Novel. He just stretched out his hand to the door. Billy was taken aback and reached out to stop her. He grabbed her wrist, but I also grabbed it. We are deadlocked in front of the door.
"What are you doing?" Billy said.
"Trust her." I said.
"Are you crazy? You saw it too, it ate two detonated rockets, and there was no residue left!"
Of course I know, but now Zhenjiang is no longer the mad patient before. She is so sober, she knows what she is doing, and she believes she can do it. She is like a perfect porcelain. I don't want her to stop. It seems that once she stops, the porcelain will break.
"It doesn't matter, let her do what she wants." I said to Billy.
Is this love? This is love. Even if one day, this suffocating love will be ruined, but shouldn't love be crazy? I really think this is not because I don't care about Zhenjiang, but because I care about her too much. Even though she was mentally ill, there was no Ranwen Novel.com trying to prevent her from living in her delusion. I want her to do what she thinks she should do, even if she can't get good results, but doing what she wants to do is a kind of happiness in itself.
I don’t use my own rules to treat her, and I don’t allow others to restrict her by their own rules. I let her fly freely, even if one day it will melt in the sun and fall into the deep sea, isn't free flying itself the greatest happiness that humans can have? A person will die one day, and how much happiness he has before death determines the quality of his life. This is my philosophy, my love.
Bi stared at me with a look of strangers, with an unbelievable waver on his face.
"You are all crazy. I ask you, do you really love her? Gao Chuan, why can you bear the suicide of your loved one?"
"This is not suicide."
"Well, even if it's not suicide, it's a risk, but you and I know how small the chance is, or do you think the chance of success is great?"
Billy's excitement was beyond my expectation. I originally thought he wouldn't be entangled in this matter. Although he has been helping us integrate into the security bureau collective, I always felt that he was just using the accusation of being an introducer. If Mae and I insisted on going our own way, he would definitely not stop us. Billy is a liar, he can conceal his heart well, and his emotions are not necessarily true. However, at this moment, he made me feel that his mood did fluctuate sharply.
Why? I subconsciously used my amateur psychological knowledge to guess his thoughts and profile his psychology. Perhaps sensing something from my silence, Billy suddenly withdrew his hand and took a step back guarded.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"It's nothing." I said, I believe I don't have any information on my face. Don't let others know what you are thinking. This is also the experience that the top student Gao Chuan got in the student union.
"You are lying." Billy glared at me, and said word by word, "You are trying to profile me. Don't do that, crow. Don't look into the hearts of others, everyone has their own forbidden area."
"Okay." I replied, staring at him for a while.
"I won't stop you anymore, just do whatever you want." He said to me and Mae.
Mae looked at me, and I nodded to her, her indifferent expression seemed to melt for a moment. Billy doesn't understand what love is, and I think if he understands, he won't be out of control here. I know that he is not blaming me, he is blaming himself. He used to have a past, solidified in memory like the tip of a needle, causing the wound to bleed from time to time. Maybe he blamed the injury on himself, but I was different.
Yes, I watched Mae turn around, thinking in my heart that I was different from Billy. As long as Zhenjiang never regrets, then I will never regret because of her.
In the gaze of Billy and I, Mae inserted his right hand into the door like sand. The door was squirming, and it seemed to be chewing. I guessed out of thin air what happened inside, because Zhenjiang didn't have any expression on his face. Billy became nervous and started pacing in place.
After a while, words appeared one after another on the gate, almost full of huge facade~IndoMTL.com~ These words were not in English, nor German. It is Latin. When Mae said this, there was still no Ranwen Novel.com to take out his arm.
She didn't fully translate it to us, but just relayed the general meaning:
I saw the lamb unseal the seal, and a red horse came out. The knight took the authority and threw the ring on the ground with a thunderous voice saying "You come!", everyone went up bravely, and lost peace on the ground. People kill each other.
"A death, there will be a birth, a fall, and a sublimation. Those who are stingy with life cannot open the gates of heaven, but will rust." When Zhen Jiang read out such a text, I suddenly meant that there will be surroundings. Some changes have been made.
This passage is not peaceful, the gears are turning loudly, magma is boiling and flowing, and there is something more besides this. These things are hidden in our breath, hidden in the sound of chaos, hidden in all visible and invisible places, unstoppable. When Billy and I turned our heads around, the necks became unfavorable, and a little turning would make a creaking sound, not a crunchy bone, but more like a metal rubbing sound.
I saw that the skin of Billy's neck appeared a dry purple-red, like rust spots, and these rust spots were quickly spreading to the body under the neck.
