Embers Ad Infinitum - Vol 2.3 Chapter 107
Rowton ended up not making it to “131”.
He is not a three-year-old child, and he will believe it when others say it is the “Home of the Awakened in the City at the End of the Year”.
In his experience, this is a trap with a higher probability.
After leaving the “Soul Corridor”, he opened his eyes, looked at the pale and pale ceiling and the chandelier shaped like a letter, and fell into contemplation.
He remembered that the owner of room “131” should have a more serious mental illness, the biggest possibility is a split personality.
It is normal for such a person to put up a blank piece of paper outside his spiritual room and write “Home of the Awakened in the City at the End of the Year”. Others do not need to understand it, nor can they understand it.
Lawton is concerned about the other two points:
One is that paper can be pasted outside the spiritual room and written, which is something he has never thought of.
The second is that the owner of room “131” actually knows Suimuocheng, and no matter what kind of attitude he has and what kind of thoughts he has, it clearly shows that he is very interested in Suimeicheng.
For the first point, Lawton’s experience and intuition told him that it was absolutely impossible under normal circumstances.
Sui Sucheng is not without the “spiritual corridor” level awakeners who are not mentally normal. They have tried many times, including graffiti on the outside of the door of the room, but they have not been successful.
Lawton suspected that the owner of room “131” was able to put up white paper and write words because he had been in contact with certain Zhisui and received a certain amount of favor.
This and the fact that the elders can change the order of the rooms in the “Spiritual Corridor” are mutually confirmed. In this matter, Lawton has no doubts, but reconfirmed that the “131” room is really very dangerous.
And the fact that the owner of room “131” was interested in Sui Sucheng made him scratch and itch like a cat.
Can’t stand still.
If the other party wants something, there is room for negotiation!
Roton thought about it, and felt that he could try to get in touch with the owner of the “131” room.
If the other party doesn’t want much, and it doesn’t involve the safety of Sui Mocheng, then he can do a certain amount of cooperation in exchange for the other party to restrain his memory and control the shadow, so that he can quickly clear the customs and find the “new world” gate.
Of course, this is definitely a very dangerous thing.
If the other party has great malice towards Sui Mocheng, then Lawton enters the “131” room, just like a sheep entering the tiger’s mouth, and can only be slaughtered by others. A little bit of tricks can make his life worse than death.
Twenty years ago, ten years ago, or even five years ago, Lawton would not have taken this risk, but now, he hesitated.
This is because his illness is getting worse and worse, his stomach is getting worse and worse, and he can’t last for two or three years.
Before that, he wants to enter the “new world”, get rid of the shackles of the body, and gain eternal life.
After thinking for a long time, Lawton made up his mind:
Give it a try!
However, trying is a completely different concept from blind and reckless attempts. Lawton just made up his mind,
There is a plan in mind.
He was going to find another elder and borrow a prop from him.
…
The next afternoon, Roton, who was ready, entered the “Spiritual Corridor” again.
After coming outside the “131” room, he took out a green leaf that was made into a specimen.
This is formed by the transfer of the breath of the item.
The next second, the leaves lit up with a faint blue light.
In the blue light, the body that Lawton’s consciousness transformed into twisted and stretched around.
Soon, it split in two and became two Rotons.
“Magic Mirror”!
The power of this prop borrowed by Lawton is the “magic mirror” in the field of “Bodhi”.
It can divide Lawton’s consciousness and turn one into a multitude.
Lawton’s plan is very simple, that is, to keep oneself outside.
In this way, even if the one who entered was seriously injured, trapped in it, or died directly, it would only bring long-term mental trauma and a certain degree of negative impact to his body, and would not make him become on the spot. vegetative.
This is a result with more serious sequelae but still retains hope, and Lawton feels that he can bear it.
After all, time does not wait for him!
One of the splintered Roton agents grabbed the door handle of room “131”, took a deep look at the name “Home of the Awakened in Sui Mocheng”, then twisted the door lightly and pushed open the door.
As the scarlet door opened, Lawton walked in.
What caught his eye was a corridor, but not the one he remembered as belonging to the hospital.
“Looking at it this way, I’ve broken through the first psychological shadow?” Lawton looked around and whispered to himself that although he underwent the “surgery” that time, he was mentally abnormal, and it took a long time to recover. , but as long as you can get through the psychological shadow there, it is a good thing.
At the end of the corridor, which was lit with street lamps, Lawton saw a door.
The door was silver-white, not too tightly closed, revealing a few gaps.
Thinking of the terrifying stare he received after pushing the door last time, Lawton couldn’t help shivering. He was afraid of encountering similar things again.
He didn’t want to experience that unspeakable fear again.
After doing some psychological construction, Lawton still mustered his courage and reached out to push the silver-white door.
Behind the door was a deep darkness, very similar to the scene in Lawton’s nightmare.
Fortunately, there was no looming female figure, and there was no stare from the other side. Lawton calmed down and walked into the darkness.
He couldn’t see anything in front of him anymore, and he couldn’t hear the slightest sound in his ears, as if he had been abandoned by the world.
This brought a certain dread and a maddening sense of breathlessness, and Lawton developed the urge to yell and sing loudly.
He wanted to break the deadly darkness.
As a last resort, he forced himself to be distracted to think of other things:
“How should I contact the owner of the room next?
“Under normal circumstances, after I explore the depths of his spiritual world, he will have frequent nightmares, appear uneasy, and then know that someone is approaching his sea of origin’, so he locks me and gives warnings until the war begins… …
“The question is, if I can break through two more psychological shadows and explore the depths of the room, why should I contact him? At that time, I have found the door to the new world.
“Well, the deeper I go, the more I’m sure that my new world’ door is in this room
“The question now is how to make the owner of the room realize that I am exploring his psychological shadow in advance, and take the initiative to contact me…
Roton’s thoughts were spinning, and he saw a light in the distance.
The light didn’t dispel the surrounding darkness and needed to get very close to find it.
It came from a tablet-like object placed directly above a silver-white column, flush with Lawton’s shoulders.
Lawton restrained his thoughts, moved closer, and saw that the screen of the item radiated a soft light, with two lines of text appearing on it.
The two lines of text, one in gray and one in Honghe script, expressed exactly the same meaning.
They are asking:
“where do you come from?”
Below this question is a long, empty box where you can enter your answer.
Lawton spent nearly a minute digesting the picture he saw, then thoughtfully stretched out his right palm and selected handwriting input.
Then, he solemnly filled in the answer:
“City at the end of the year.”
Finally, he clicked submit.
Shang Jian Yao, who was checking the supplies in the trunk of the jeep, suddenly stopped.
He turned around suddenly and said to Jiang Baimian and the others:
“The fish is hooked!”
Without waiting for his companion to respond, he shoved into the car, leaned against the back of the seat, raised his hands and pinched the temples on both sides.
…
Lawton waited for a while, and finally saw the text on the screen change.
Bang bang bang, colorful fireworks bloomed on the screen, and the sound was obviously festive.
Among the fireworks~www.mtlnovel.com~, a string of gray text stands out:
“Welcome to the House of the Awakened at the end of the year, is there anything I can help?”
Because the “City at the End of the Year” submitted by Lawton was written in gray soil, there is no Red River language this time.
Lawton exhaled slowly, and said with a high degree of vigilance:
“What do you want to get?”
The string of text changes again:
“The specific location of the end of the year city.”
“What do you want to do at the end of the year? Maybe I don’t need to get there, I can meet your needs.” Roton said with consideration, “Also, even if I give you a fake coordinate, you can’t confirm it now.”
People who saw the “House of the Awakened at the End of the Year City”, when answering the question just now, most likely would fill in the form.
“City at the end of the year”, but he is not necessarily from the city at the end of the year.
Two hands appeared on the screen, one of them clenched into a fist and hit the palm of the other.
“Yes, how do you prove that what you said is true?” The owner of the room expressed his doubts in words.
Lawton has already had a draft:
“I want to do some level of exploration in your room and see if the new world’s door is not here.
“That’s what I want to get, and it’s going to take a long time to do it, and during that time, you can go and see if what I’m saying is true or not.
“If I lie, I can’t escape your punishment.”
“Yes, then tell me the exact location of Sui Sucheng.” The text on the screen changed again.
Lawton felt that the problem had gone round again.
He took a breath and said:
“Maybe you can use something else instead.”
In the case of being inseparable between friends and foes, he did not want to betray Sui Sucheng, where his descendants lived.
