A swift white shadow swept across the old and dirty streets and alleys of the Xiacheng District, swept across the criss-crossing pipes and pressure relief structures above the factory complex, swept over desolate stations and deserted streets, and finally drilled into a in a narrow alley.
A faint green flame suddenly bloomed, spreading in the air like a door. The vortex in the door suddenly swelled and shrank, and Duncan stepped out of the door.
Following her is Shirley, who is still a bit confused.
Duncan looked back at the girl behind him. After looking up and down, he said in a deep voice: “How do you feel? Is there anything uncomfortable?”
“I…it’s okay,” Shirley is still dizzy, but this dizziness is more of a discomfort caused by being suddenly carried by the old man, rather than physical discomfort, She raised her head and glanced at Ai Yin, who had returned to the form of a dove and landed on Duncan’s shoulder. After a long time, she suddenly communicated with Agou, who was in a hidden state and hid in her own soul through divine contact, “Agou, can you fight? Have you ever been to this pigeon?”
“..Don’t ask, you can’t beat it if you ask,” Ah Gou’s voice sounded muffled, “Don’t talk about the birds raised by Da Lao, I can’t even beat the fish stewed by Da Lao……
Sulli was taken aback: “Why did you mention fish all of a sudden?”
“Because I see it, there is probably nothing that is in line with common sense around this existence…
Duncan didn’t know that Shirley was cooing with Agou, but he just checked Shirley’s condition visually and felt the feedback from the imprint he left on the other party’s body, and then he was completely relieved Come.
Actually he was sure about Ai Yin’s transportation of a living person, not only because he tested it with his mortal body last time, but also because after that he let Ai Yin use it outside. A large number of “live experiments” were carried out on small animals such as various birds and beasts. All the tests were perfect, and it could be confirmed that the pigeon could transport the living target without damage. But even with so many tests, he subconsciously confirmed it. In the case of Shirley.
After all, Ai Yin’s body is full of mysteries, and no one knows how many special features of it are waiting to be discovered by themselves. There is no harm in being more cautious when using “Bone Pigeon Express”.
And after confirming Shirley’s situation, he also focused on his surroundings.
The place you see is a deserted alley. At the end of the alley, you can vaguely see a dilapidated street scene. Dilapidated pipeline facilities cross over the houses on both sides. Some of the pipelines are connected at the A subtle hiss of steam leaks out.
This is a common sight in many parts of downtown.
But Shirley still found out where this place was first.
“This is…. Sixth Block?” She widened her eyes in surprise. “Mr. Duncan, do you perceive that imprint here?”
.
“That’s right, Sixth Block, we’re back here again, but…” Duncan exhaled and frowned slightly, “but the impression of the imprint had subsided a minute ago. “
＿Tkn
“…disappeared? Did it go out?”
Sherry asked with a look of surprise, but Duncan didn’t answer, just looked thoughtfully in a certain direction.
In Shirley’s “Dreamland”, he planted a cluster of flames in the fragment that remained after the attacker split, and the order he gave to the fragment at that time was to return it to its “body”, and Not long after that, he lost his sense of the flames with the end of Xue Li’s dream, until just now, the mark suddenly appeared in his perception, but it led him here.
Located in the sixth block of the real world.
The fire of the spirit body, which should have spread in the dream, suddenly sent a signal back in the real world. Shirley’s own dream, the edge of which was connected to the scene in Nina’s dream, attacked Shirley in the nightmare. The Umbrella Freak, who appeared at the scene of a real-world museum fire…
Unconsciously, many contradictory but vaguely connected clues were connected in Duncan’s heart, and he felt as if he was about to touch the invisible curtain.
In other words, even though this grand curtain covers the whole city, there is still a “gap” left, and this gap is in the sixth block – somewhere he and Shirley ignored last time.
He was looking at the direction of the last signal from the imprint in his perception
The scent of the mark only appeared for a short time, and quickly faded a minute ago, but Duncan didn’t think the flame he left had gone out – although he couldn’t pinpoint its location, he could still perceive it By that time, the flames were still burning, and they had even grown a lot bigger than before.
Since the flame is still burning and growing, it means that its “mission” is not over yet – it is still chasing, devouring, assimilating the attacker, and may even have spread into a fire, which briefly appeared in the sixth block It quickly faded after that, probably because the “curtain” here is not stable, and a gap is briefly opening and closing, causing the two-dimensional world to be intertwined and connected.
He wants to find the gap, the gap that seems to connect dream and reality.
After a few days, Duncan and Shirley once again walked through the deserted and dilapidated streets of the sixth block. This time they didn’t waste time asking the locals about anything, but walked straight to the deepest part of the block.
“The abandoned factory is in the other direction…” Halfway through, Shirley raised her arm and pointed to a large building in the distance.
“We’re not going to that factory,” Duncan said quickly. “We’re going this way.”
Shirley responded and followed Duncan’s footsteps with her short legs.
The withered and yellow leaves drifted in the wind and landed at Shirley’s feet. She stepped on the leaves and heard a slight cracking sound from under her feet. It sounded like she was stepping on charred wood chips, and it seemed It was the slight crackling of flames.
She looked up and looked around, but what she saw was just an ordinary street. The old houses were lined up along the street, standing in the wind among the fallen leaves, facing the uninvited guests who broke into the place indifferently.
Sherry suddenly realizes that something is not right.
I don’t know since when, she has been invisible to a passerby.
The sixth block is indeed very deserted, most places are sparsely populated, and the only residents seem listless, aloof and withdrawn, but never so deserted that no one can see it!
A very uncomfortable feeling permeated from the bottom of her heart. This feeling made her vaguely think of the dream she was trapped in. She subconsciously approached Duncan, but she did not expect Duncan to stop suddenly. With a bang, she slammed her head into the latter’s waist.
In the next second, Shirley drew up the full text of her last words and conceived of three styles of tombstones, but she soon realized that those crushed by the shadows of the warp probably won’t be able to leave their bodies behind The……
Duncan’s calm voice interrupted the girl’s momentary thoughts: “Looks like we’re here.
“I’m very, very sorry that I really didn’t mean to ask you to… eh?”
Xue Li subconsciously popped out a string of begging for mercy, and then realized that the old man in front of her didn’t seem to be angry, and then she noticed that she had stopped in front of a building that looked abandoned for an unknown time.
It’s a church.
At the end of this trail is a community church, common in the city-state of Pland.
It has the iconic slender spire of the Deep Sea Church, black roof tiles and white stone walls, but withered vines and rotten and dirty things can be seen everywhere, the door depicting complex sacred runes is slightly opened, – The stained glass windows of the building were also dilapidated, and almost only the curved and deformed wrought iron outline remained. From the cracks in the door and the holes in the windows, a dim scene could be seen.
This was once a sacred building, but now an air of dilapidation and oblivion fills every crack of its bricks.
“…This is the ‘church’ that the old man near the intersection mentioned last time?” Shirley recalled the last time she came to the sixth block to check the situation, “I remember he said he lived here With a nun ~IndoMTL.com~ but that nun is often not in church……..
“It’s not ‘often absent’ to explain why it’s so dilapidated,” Duncan said casually, and walked towards the church door, “It’s not so much that the nun goes out often, it’s better to say that it looks like it’s already here. forgotten for eleven years. “
Sherry looked at the other party walking towards the church, instinctively resisting and nervous about the building, but after a moment’s hesitation, she followed Duncan’s footsteps.
The next moment, Duncan pushed open the door of the church that was hidden, and the scene inside the chapel was clearly presented to her and Shirley’s eyes.
The warm and bright candlelight fell into Shirley’s eyes. The clean and tidy chapel was brightly lit. At the end of the neatly arranged pews, the icon of the storm goddess Gormona stood quietly in the lights.
A nun who was kneeling and praying in front of the icon stood up and turned around when she heard the door open.
She saw the visitor standing at the door with a mild smile on her face: “It’s been a long time since no one has visited this church.”
“…Looks like it’s here,” Duncan said quietly, looking at the smiling nun in front of him, “The gap in the curtain.
He blinked. In his eyes, the smiling nun maintained the appearance of a living person for one moment, but in the next instant, it turned into a pile of human-shaped wriggling ashes, and the church behind her It presents an extremely strange superposition state – the flames are burning on the intact benches, the ashes and sparks are drifting from the roof, the scene after the fire burns and the intact scene of the church overlap at the same time, showing a strange but tearing ‘s scene.
“My Healing Game”
It’s as if two completely different facts were forcibly merged in this church.
