Lin Qiye stood there alone, looking at the desolate scene before him, motionless like a stone statue.
Confusion and doubt filled his mind.
Don't forget yourself... You will definitely find me
This was not the first time that Lin Qiye heard these two sentences, but he still could not interpret the meaning. Although they had now solved the three pillar gods, [Black Goat], [Chaos], and [Key to the Gate], if they did not "upgrade" to defeat Azathoth, mankind would still be destroyed in the crazy universe.
Why didn't he tell me how to defeat Azathoth
Is it because he himself doesn't know
The greatest hope was dashed, and Lin Qiye felt empty inside... With the death of [Key to the Door] and the disappearance of An Qingyu, the only way to save the world before him was completely broken.
There are only seven days left until the shadow of Azathoth engulfs the Earth.
Are they just waiting to die during these seven days
A strong feeling of unwillingness surged into Lin Qiye's heart. His nails pierced his skin deeply, trying to maintain his consciousness and not fall into despair... He had to find another way!
Just as Lin Qiye was thinking hard, a light sound came from behind him!
Lin Qiye turned his head suddenly and found that the sound came from An Qingyu's fallen body. As the [Key to the Door] and An Qingyu left one after another, this body no longer had an owner and collapsed on the ground like a corpse.
puff!
Just as Lin Qiye was about to go forward to investigate, a ball of flesh spurted out from the mouth of the flesh body.
“Hahahaha… Wonderful! Really wonderful!!”
"Great kill!!"
"You plotted against me behind my back, wanting to be the boss of the K-type? And this is the level you're at?"
"You wanted to be the oriole behind the scenes, but you were tricked by another oriole, right? Do you really think that I can't see what An Qingyu is thinking? I kept him just to see how badly you will be played! I didn't expect that his show was so exciting!! Hahahaha..."
"Don't you always claim to be omniscient and all-seeing? And yet you have ended up in such a miserable way?!"
“Hahahahahahaha…”
A sharp and ferocious curse came out from the meat ball. The moment Lin Qiye heard the sound, his eyes shrank slightly!
[chaos]!!
He is not dead yet!
Lin Qiye seemed to have grabbed the last straw. He clenched his palm in the air, and a thread of cause and effect directly threw the meat ball into his hand!
His five fingers tightly grasped the surface of the meat ball and spoke coldly:
"[Chaos]... We meet again."
"Yeah, we meet again!" The mouth-like crack on the surface of the meatball kept opening and closing. "Although I have seen this ending countless times, it is true that no matter how many times I see it, I can never get enough of it! I can never get enough of it!!"
Hearing these inexplicable words, Lin Qiye frowned slightly, and he pressed his five fingers on the surface of the meat ball harder and harder, and said grimly:
"Let me ask you... How do you communicate with Azathoth?"
“That’s how we communicate!”
"How do you communicate just like that?"
"Just like now." As he spoke, a scarlet tongue emerged from the crack of the flesh ball and began to tremble rapidly, "Lililililil..."
When Lin Qiye saw this, anger surged in his heart. The five fingers slowly curled up, and under the huge force, the ugly meat ball was stretched out like a rubber toy, extending out from between the fingers.
"Based on your current state, I can kill ten of you with one hand. I advise you to be honest." Lin Qiye's eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc, "I'll ask again... How did you communicate with Azathoth?"
A series of muffled groans came from Chaos's fleshy balls, and his twisted, shrill voice immediately sounded:
“Let go, let go… Don’t you just want to know how to meet Azathoth? I’ll tell you right now!”
After hearing this answer, Lin Qiye's fingertips loosened slightly... Of course, he didn't trust [Chaos], but given the current situation, [Chaos] might be the only way out.
“Don’t play tricks. You should know that you can’t escape.” Lin Qiye held the causal thread with [Chaos] and spoke calmly.
"Don't worry, I won't run away. This is my favorite part of the reservation!"
The flesh ball of Chaos fell to the ground, and it quickly squirmed and grew, regaining its dark human shape. He smiled brightly at Lin Qiye, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
He faced Lin Qiye, cleared his throat, and straightened his messy clothes... His expression was solemn and dignified.
Under Lin Qiye's gaze, he slowly half-knelt on the ground...
Lin Qiye looked at [Chaos] kneeling down in front of him, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. He simply couldn't understand what this guy was doing... Just as he was about to speak, [Chaos]'s voice sounded respectfully:
"It's time to wake up from your dream... Great Lord Azathoth."
Hearing this, Lin Qiye was stunned.
"What are you doing again..."
Before Lin Qiye finished speaking, everything in front of him suddenly became blurry. In an instant, his mysterious connection with the universe suddenly became clear. He saw countless black ribbons extending from his body and drilling into every corner of this world...
It was a feeling that Lin Qiye had never experienced before. An ancient and huge consciousness rose from his mind and gradually occupied his body. He seemed to be floating up as if he had lost weight...
The sky, the earth, the huge abyss where black fire danced, Wang Mian and Merlin who were rushing over from afar... Just when Lin Qiye's sense of connection with this universe was extremely strong, everything around him shattered like a mirror image!
In an instant, his body was shattered along with the surrounding environment...
All the light and shadow, sound and breath disappeared, and Lin Qiye seemed to have returned to the dark abyss that he would fall into every time he was on the verge of death. His consciousness was constantly sinking and sinking... The feeling of weightlessness filled his mind, but unlike every time before, Lin Qiye was conscious this time!
Plop!!
His consciousness seemed to fall into something, and then there was a sound of a heavy object falling to the ground!
The moment Lin Qiye regained consciousness, his body immediately jumped up from the ground and looked around vigilantly... But there was nothing around him except endless darkness.
“Here again??”
Of course Lin Qiye knew this place. His consciousness had entered this mysterious space several times, but the strange thing was that this time he had been awake for a while, and the mysterious little boy did not appear.
"Is anyone there?" Lin Qiye asked tentatively.
In the darkness, no one answered.
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment and could only reach out his hand and grope in the darkness... As soon as he raised his hand, it touched a solid wall.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately touched the wall in one direction. Then he touched a smooth bulge and pressed it lightly.
Snapped!
A crisp switching sound was heard.
A bright light suddenly lit up from above his head. Lin Qiye looked around in confusion. The next moment, he stood there like a sculpture!
This place was not some mysterious place as he had imagined. Quite the contrary, everything here was very familiar to him... This was a ward.
A ward in the Gods' Mental Hospital.
