Bai Wu seemed not to hear clearly:
"What did you say?"
"The person on the other end of the phone is called Bai Wu." Yin Shuang repeated word by word.
Bai Wu narrowed his eyes and said:
"From the look on your face, it seems that this Bai Wu doesn't just happen to have the same name as me..."
"Yes, I hope you have really forgotten your past, because what I experienced on the phone was... very uncomfortable."
The three words "very uncomfortable" were a sign of Yin Shuang's extreme strength. At least compared to Lilith, she had done quite well.
Bai Wu's expression changed unconsciously, and the carefree look disappeared a lot. He himself didn't even realize it:
"What did the white mist on the phone experience?"
He knew best what Bai Wu had been through. He hoped it was a coincidence because he didn't want his bad past to affect Yin Shuang.
Yin Shuang was thinking...
What kind of person can, after going through that kind of torture, still fit in with everyone, not hate the world, and even become friends with the captain because of similar values
Normally, that child named Bai Wu... would become a demon, right
"He went through inhuman torture."
Yin Shuang didn't want to explain too much, just said:
"Maybe it's just a coincidence of names... But I feel that person is very similar to you. The violent person looks older than you, but there is an indescribable similarity between us."
Bai Wu also found this strange. Logically speaking, even though he had traveled through time, his face was very similar to that in his previous life.
After hearing about the perpetrator and the unspeakable similarities, Bai Wu began to believe it... Yin Shuang actually received a call from herself.
But how is this possible
The white fog is unimaginable.
Baichuan City, Xuanhui City, Food City, Denglin City… He had never heard of the names of these cities.
The culture of the previous life is completely different from the pre-tower era of this world. In this case, how could Yin Shuang receive a call from himself
It just happened to be this time
He suddenly remembered that when he entered this area and saw the telephone booth, he received a prompt from his eyes - you may receive calls from different time and space, and from these messages, slowly piece together the truth about this area.
"It seems that I was confused by this sentence... Normally, the phones in these phone booths are fixed to a certain time and space - the food city and port seven hundred years ago. But occasionally there are a few from different time and space? This statement is more reasonable. Speaking of which... Have I made a phone call?"
Bai Wu did remember the time when he made a phone call, but that time it was a call from the Space Guard.
He suddenly smiled:
"That's a really interesting thing... Oh, no, I'm not saying that it's interesting that you were tortured in your dream, but that you received a call from someone with the same name as me."
"You mean, this is a coincidence?"
"Of course it's a coincidence. There just happened to be a person named Bai Wu who might want to be redeemed in the midst of pain."
Bai Wu's expression was indifferent, as if he was really talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Yin Shuang was very observant and could sense that there was something abnormal about the white fog.
But thinking back to the pain that Bai Wu had experienced in the telephone booth world, she didn't really want Bai Wu to remember it.
Bai Wu has lost his memory. Maybe this is a good thing
"I am indeed not as good as you. You can soothe the obsession of a soul that has lasted for seven hundred years, but I can't save that child. Perhaps if I can endure the pain and answer the questions of that man, he will recognize that child."
"Alright! There's nothing much to say about this matter. For now, it seems that we just need to answer the phone. It doesn't matter whether it can be solved perfectly or not. There are so many miserable people in this world, and that child is really not one of the most miserable. Don't feel burdened. Or do you think it must be solved perfectly just because the other party is called Bai Wu?"
Bai Wu's final tone was teasing.
It was like something from childhood that could no longer cause him any harm. But Yin Shuang could still hear that Bai Wu wanted to stop the topic.
She nodded and said:
"Let's continue on our journey."
"Um."
The man and woman walked in the order of the man in front and the woman behind. Yin Shuang was only slightly shorter than Bai Wu. She looked at Bai Wu's back and remembered that there had been such a time before. When she was in the Ninth Mental Hospital, the captain walked in front, and she and Bai Wu were protected by Lin Wurou and Shang Xiaoyi.
As if it was an illusion, she felt that the white fog seemed to be a little shorter at that time.
The sound of the telephone ringing gradually became clear and audible.
Yin Shuang suddenly said:
"Tell me, if the two of us pick up the same receiver, will we both enter the world in the telephone booth?"
"Unless you can guarantee that you can do things as efficiently as I do, I refuse."
Bai Wu decisively refused the opportunity to share the "700 Years Ago Food City Travel Tour" with others.
Yin Shuang didn't care, but she was afraid that she would receive a call and mess up.
Although it seems that at the moment, all you have to do is pick up the receiver, and it doesn’t matter whether the obsession on the phone is eliminated or not.
After walking about sixty meters and passing several telephone booths, Bai Wu and Yin Shuang both arrived at the telephone booth where the phone rang.
"Do you want to regain your confidence?" Bai Wu said.
"I'm very empathetic and might be affected by these obsessions. Please answer the phone. I'll help you record the changes outside. Maybe when you answer the phone, this street will also have some kind of reaction?"
"This is something I didn't expect. Okay, let's do it."
Yin Shuang's suggestion was reasonable. She was indeed more likely to empathize with those obsessions, or in other words, compared to Bai Wu, everyone could easily empathize with the obsessions on the phone.
Bai Wu just couldn't feel it, otherwise when he answered the first phone call, he would feel the resentment of being abandoned by his parents.
When you receive the second call, you will feel extremely unwilling and sad.
But unfortunately, he is just a golden customer service without negative emotions. If he faces danger with a smile, his dream will not be far away.
Thinking of this, Bai Wu said:
"If anything happens outside the phone booth, just pull me out."
"good."
Yin Shuang nodded.
Bai Wu's perception spread out to the surroundings, and after finding that there was indeed no danger, he picked up the receiver.
"Hello... I'm Gu Hailin... Requesting support! Requesting support! We can't go back..."
Asking for support, could it be that this Gu Hailin has encountered evil? Are they the humans responsible for fighting against evil
Well... Anyway, I have to empathize first, and then think about my own fault.
This is really a method that works all the time.
Watching the surrounding scenes dissipate and rebuild like a puzzle, Bai Wu never expected that he would echo the scene on the phone twice just because he disliked a pot.
When the things in his consciousness began to become clear, a tall figure appeared in front of Bai Wu's eyes.
The man was wearing a blue and white uniform and had a neat crew cut. The weapon in his hand was a steel spear. Even with the loose uniform, Bai Wu could feel that his body had great strength.
Soon the surrounding scenes were completely pieced together, and Bai Wu looked around... and found himself in a blood-red mist.
The fog was not thick and did not block the view of the white mist, but it did make the distant scene hazy.
It was like a layer of red gauze was covering the distance, and on the other side of the gauze was a monster with nine heads.
From a distance... it looks like a Hydra - a super huge Hydra.
The elements in sight gradually increased, and the color was no longer the monotonous red, because the nine heads of the Hydra began to attack the area.
Red flames, white frost, purple poison gas, and yellow lightning.
It was like an oversized killing machine. Countless humans in blue and white uniforms, holding various cold weapons in their hands, charged towards it, and were then swallowed up by the horrific power, leaving no trace of their bodies.
In just a few seconds, the white mist felt the breath of death spreading rapidly.
The difference in strength between these charging warriors and the Hydra in the distance was too great. Their only advantage was their numbers...
As for the humans charging at the monsters in the distance, the Eye of Prell gave Bai Wu a shocking message:
Ants, charge! You can bite the elephant to death - no way. The Outer Tower Investigation Corps wears blue uniforms, and the Tower Defense Corps wears white uniforms. So what do the blue and white uniforms represent? Aha, of course, it's the joint action team of the two armies! They are the first warriors in the history of the Tower to go to the red zone. So you quickly have a second question, what does this have to do with seven hundred years ago
Bai Wu was stunned.
The amount of information provided by the Eye of Prell exploded...
In the history of the Tower, the first expedition of mankind to the Red Zone was a joint effort of the Outer Tower Investigation Corps and the Tower Defense Corps.
All this happened ninety years ago. The residents in the tower were looking forward to the triumphant return of the two armies, which meant that mankind's exploration of the outside of the tower had entered a new era.
But unfortunately, this largest alliance between the two armies in history resulted in an unbelievably tragic defeat.
The elite of the Survey Corps and the Suppression Corps, a team of hundreds of top masters in the tower, all died outside the tower.
Instead of alleviating people's fear of the outside world, this battle made people more convinced that the tower was the only safe haven for mankind.
But as Yan mentioned, this incident clearly happened in a red area ninety years ago, which is too far away from seven hundred years ago, and the first two calls seem to be related.
But the timeline of this phone call jumped too far...
"So the commonality between these calls is not time... could it be space?"
A light flashed in Bai Wu's mind.
He looked around, and through the thin red mist, he could still see the ruined outlines of the surrounding city.
"Wait... Is this a food city
Speaking of which, Bai Wu noticed one thing.
"When I was playing a family of three with Yin Shuang and others in the manor, news came that rats had mutated and migrated in the sewers of Food City. These rats were huge in size and must have become evil and degenerate."
"And in the story of the last phone call, Lin Rui and his companions were chased by a lizard. This lizard was not a human, but a fallen evil one."
"Unlike other cities, the evil that is rampant in Food City is not human, but animals..."
Bai Wu couldn't imagine what kind of entry would turn a human into a giant nine-headed snake. He vaguely thought of some clues and felt that he could string everything together.
He looked at the huge Hydra in the distance:
Ninth-level mutant, perfect-level distortion entries: super gigantism, exploding poisonous fog, cold light of death, thunder punishment, flaming dragon, extreme cold curse, and devouring evolution.
A lucky little fat snake that grew into a giant by devouring mutant mice. It almost became your competitor on the road to employment, but because of its large size, it was passed by the interviewer Xiaowu.
Bai Wu remembered one thing, Jingwu seemed to want to win over the evil himself, which also meant that he might have looked for other evils before, but never found the right one.
Through this giant nine-headed snake, Bai Wu was certain that this place was the Food City.
Ninety years ago, the red area that the Zhenyu Army and the Survey Corps broke into... was exactly this area of Food City.
"Speaking of which, why is the Food City called the Food City? Why are so many of the evil creatures in the Food City animals? Is it just a coincidence..."
Bai Wu had a vague idea and felt that he was going to string everything together. But first, as a gold medal customer service representative, he had to resolve the obsession in this phone call.
His gaze finally fell on the tall figure in front of him.
This person was undoubtedly Gu Hailin. Bai Wu could not see his expression, but he just felt that this man must be desperate inside as he watched his subordinates charging forward.
As the former deputy commander of the Survey Corps, Gu Hailin has strong strength and command ability. There were no good people like the dwarf ninety years ago, but he is not a real bad guy either. He does everything from eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, but he is very good to his subordinates and the people at the bottom of the tower, especially... He longs to breathe the air outside the tower. He is cold-hearted by nature, but he has a bit of passion that he himself despises. He has been looking forward to that action for a long time. With his special talent sequence-59: Instant Shadow, he is known as the fastest warrior in the tower for more than 600 years. But no matter how fast a person is, he cannot escape the obsession in his heart. He could have been a temporary survivor, but in the end he chose to rush to death.
No matter how fast a person is, he cannot escape the obsession in his heart. The temporary survivors will eventually choose to face death.
Bai Wu didn't know what would happen next, but these two sentences had already made him guess the ending of the deputy commander of the Survey Corps.
Bai Wu memorized the talent sequence list, and the 59th instant shadow was more terrifying than the captain's extreme shadow. It could ignore a certain distance and move instantly.
With such a sequence, no matter how powerful the Hydra in front of him is, it cannot hold Gu Hailin.
So at this moment, a question emerged in Bai Wu's mind -
Since Gu Hailin could escape, why didn't he choose to return to the tower
Why didn't even these elite troops of the two armies choose to go back? The reason why people have always been afraid of the disastrous defeat ninety years ago is that they don't even know what happened.
But now, in Bai Wu's opinion... these people are indeed far less powerful than the Hydra, but they are not without the chance to return to the tower.
Unless... they are unable to return to the tower due to other reasons.
