Ni Ji stretched out his hand and pulled Lin Yuan backwards, avoiding the attack that was heading towards Lin Yuan.
He fired back and forward.
The anti-gravity weapon in his hand caused the gravity collapse of the space ahead.
A large area of circular holes suddenly appeared in the bodies of those withered and rotten monsters.
All the flesh and blood within the circle were crushed into pulp, and countless neatly broken old tentacles on the edge of the circle were struggling and twisting.
Ni Ji threw away the overloaded anti-gravity gun and picked up a plasma weapon. The silent light ejected from the muzzle cut through the huge body that was attacking them.
This place is a warrior's paradise. It's easy to find weapons with powerful attack power.
Ni Ji didn't know why such a large number of powerful weapons were placed in a scientific research institute.
When he jumped into the temple, he picked up a lot of weapons from the research institute. Each one of them was very handy, had sufficient ammunition, and had great destructive power.
The battle would have been over long ago, had it not been for the sheer size of the dying monster.
The scorching arc rays kept lighting up, huge tentacles were covered in blood and flesh, and Ni Ji was puzzled in the bloody battle.
Back then, humans possessed such powerful weapons, a large number of warriors, and backed by such strong walls, but they were unable to resist the attacks of the mutated creatures and were defeated all the way to the current situation.
In the dim underground world, thick tentacles surrounded and throbbed at the dark temple. The severed tentacles were bloody and a strange wailing sound came from the depths of the darkness like a tide.
She survived for hundreds of years, devoured countless spiritual powers, and grew into such a powerful behemoth. With a huge size and the ability to control spiritual power extending to infinity, she was worshipped as a god by the creatures in the entire dungeon.
Even now, when it is decayed and on the verge of death, it is still so powerful that it is frightening.
Zero's spiritual power completely disappeared in this world, and the pillars supporting the contaminated area of the Pupilless Land disappeared.
"Chu", who was interdependent with Ling, also became weak and unable to recover.
The Pupilless Land began to disintegrate, and His will and body would completely dissolve soon.
The pure white altar, the scarlet stairs, the walls and the floor were slowly dissolving, and the thick dark world was slowly peeling off like a falling curtain.
Waking up from a nightmare, time and space are torn apart.
At this moment, Chu, who had lost his pillar and was on the verge of death, had lost all his sanity, leaving only the strongest and most primitive anger.
The withered tentacles were constantly destroyed by the powerful firepower, and continued to pour out from the ground, covering the sky and the earth and almost filling the entire temple.
In his chaotic rage, he only wanted to kill, tear apart, and crush all living things in front of him.
In the dark temple, withered tentacles swept towards the forest garden like a storm.
Lin Yuan dodged in a panic, was injured several times, and was in danger all around.
In the spiritual world, overwhelming mental power attacked Ni Ji's brain.
In Ni Ji's spiritual world, the clear sky over the sea disappeared.
The star Taixu suddenly appeared in the sky, and the ancient life form showed a huge figure in the depths of the starry sky, with raging anger, countless tentacles surging, and low humming sounds coming from afar.
The primitive and powerful mental force overwhelmed Ni Ji.
The cold, strange giant spirit forcefully crossed the void and stepped into the sea, attempting to destroy the spirit of the human sentinel in front of him. Compared to the ancient Him, it was just a small fish. Even though He was already decayed, weak, and on the verge of death, it was still easy to crush such a small fish to death.
Ni Ji's sea was swept by violent storms, and he used the deep sea as a barrier to resist the invasion of foreign objects.
The black-backed and white-bellied killer whale swam rapidly in the stormy sea, avoiding powerful mental attacks again and again.
The sentry who was fighting in the temple stopped, bent down and covered his forehead which was splitting in pain. He struggled with his trembling arms for several times and barely managed to lift the heavy gun.
At this time, Ni Ji understood why humans were defeated by these monsters back then.
It was not because of the huge physical strength of these deformed creatures that they were defeated.
No matter how many people there are or how powerful their weapons are, the fragile spiritual world of human beings cannot resist such forced and terrifying spiritual pollution.
Even now, he, a powerful sentinel, was still completely suppressed by such tremendous mental power.
Ni Ji turned his head and glanced at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan looked similar to him at the moment, with blood on his face and a hot gun in his hand. In order to avoid the overwhelming attack of tentacles, he rolled in mud and was almost seriously injured several times.
He was in a state of disgrace and faced many crises, but his eyes were still bright and the fire of war in them was not extinguished.
The two exchanged glances, and Ni Jiwei opened his mouth and said something.
The next moment, that familiar will entered his world.
He gave his body to his guide.
The feeling of giving up control of your body when you are awake is completely different from the feeling when your mind is unconscious.
He clearly felt that Lin Yuan's mental power was like a stream of cold water covering every nerve, flowing through every joint, spreading to the fingertips and arches of the feet.
It was as if someone was hugging him closely from behind.
The feeling was so vivid that Ni Ji almost lost his focus during the battle.
His will sank, letting go of control of his body, and he dived into the palace at the deepest part of the sea to hide himself.
The guide's mental power controlled the sentry's body, and the sentry raised his gun again and stood in front of her. Huge gunshots continued to explode in the darkness.
Lin Yuan's mental power was in Ni Ji's body, watching over his fragile mental picture.
In reality, Ni Ji's body is doing its best to protect Lin Yuan's fragile body.
The two people opened their palms to each other, protecting each other's most vulnerable parts.
They wrap themselves around each other and protect each other, and neither can be missing.
Ni Ji felt that the two of them were almost one whole at that moment and could not be separated into two people.
This feeling is a little too close and makes one's scalp tingle.
The big fish that sank into the palace on the bottom of the sea gazed at the sea surface, and quietly used its tail to sweep a few pearls that stored memories to a more obvious position.
It contains important memories of what happened in a dark and damp cave.
He had been hidden very deeply by the sentinels before, and was ashamed to be discovered.
At this moment, while everyone's attention was on the battlefield, the big fish quietly swept them out and pushed them to a conspicuous place.
The big fish was wagging its tail deep in the sea, with a secret desire in its heart.
It would be great if she could find out.
The flames of the explosion lit up a crimson red in the darkness. Before the scorching flames faded, the light waves of the electromagnetic weapons drew long arcs and tore through the air.
With the tacit cooperation between the two, the battle gradually tilted towards Lin Yuan and Ni Ji.
The huge shadow was rampant and sweeping madly in the flashing gunfire, but it was already on the way to decay.
Lin Yuan heard Chu's roar.
I heard the desperation and sadness in her anger.
I heard her calling out a monosyllabic name.
Lin Yuan understood that word.
{zero}
{Where did Zero go?}
{My Zero, my friend, where have you been}
The sound gradually dissipated, and the charred tentacles on the ground stopped moving, became rigid, and disintegrated, slowly turning into ashes that collapsed at the slightest touch.
The pure white altar in the ancient temple broke in two, the magnificent pillars collapsed, and the rain of fallen stones covered the scarlet carpet.
Countless fine ashes rose with the wind, floating like snow and cotton wool in the dark underground temple and dancing in the huge old underground city.
In the flying ashes, Lin Yuan vaguely saw the time a hundred years ago.
Two young girls snuggled up to each other, curled up in the dark and damp underground temple, using a pile of tentacles as a blanket. One of them whispered a story to the other, telling her dreams.
"Zero's dream is so interesting. When I have the power in the future, I will turn it into a real world."
"I will find eyes for Zero, so that you can see the world you want to see at will."
"Zero and I will live together. We will always be together, living in your dreams."
In the constantly collapsing world, the two little figures who were holding each other's hands hundreds of years ago eventually disappeared.
Lin Yuan only heard a long sigh.
{Leave it to you, see the world for her}
A cold tentacle touched the palm of her hand and placed a round stone in Lin Yuan's hand.
"This place is going to collapse, let's go." Ni Ji's voice rang out, and he took Lin Yuan's hand and ran out.
Lin Yuan lowered his head while running, and in the dim light, he saw a sparkling gem in his hand. The spherical gem had colorful textures, like a beautiful pupil.
A female sentinel carrying a backpack climbed out of the crack in the dungeon.
She looked up and saw the eye with bloody tears hanging in the sky, and she felt a little relieved.
I weighed the pocket on my back and it seemed that I was lucky enough to get out alive again this time.
This is an extremely dangerous world. In the dark abyss beneath her feet, many of her comrades-in-arms were left there forever.
But she had to go in again and again. She knew very well that she might be the one to stay here next time.
There was a barren land on the ground, and a huge eye hanging high in the sky was shedding tears of blood like a waterfall.
The red blood waterfall fell from the sky, rolled into the cracked ground, and fell into the depths of the dark underground city.
This was the sight she saw every time she entered or left the place. Even so, she would still look up.
Every time she saw the blind and tearful eyes hanging in the air, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart whose eyes they were, who had been crying with tears of blood for so many years
At this moment, she saw the eyes hanging high in the air, motionless for hundreds of years, move—the eyes were slowly closing!
The blood-red waterfall that had been flowing for countless days and months became smaller and smaller, and gradually dried up.
The sentry stood stunned, watching the last few drops of red tears above his head fall from the sky and into the abyss below.
Above my head, the pupil-less eye completely disappeared. The sky began to dissolve like a canvas, and the whole world lost its dreamlike color.
A rising sun reveals its true and beautiful outline behind the canvas.
The orange-yellow light slanted into the cracks in the earth, illuminating the underground city that had been dark for hundreds of years.
"Collapse... Collapse?" The sentinel stood at the edge of the cracked ground and murmured in shock, "The Pupilless Land is collapsing?"
The ground beneath their feet began to rumble and shake. Countless explorers and strange mutants ran out from deep underground.
“It collapsed!”
"The Land of No Pupils has collapsed!" the people in the rush shouted.
The thick veil faded away, and a real underground city appeared before the eyes of the world in the same way it had been hundreds of years ago.
The magnificent human fortress was built underground, layer upon layer, with crisscrossing pipes and stacked buildings.
Hundreds of years ago, this underground fortress was destroyed from the inside out by a huge monster, leaving a huge hole.
Now the deserted underground fortress has reappeared in the world, and the broken crack in the ground allows the bright morning light from the sky to shine in.
In the deepest part of the dungeon, amidst the rumbling sound, the mutants raised their necks in fear.
The ground beneath my feet was roaring, and very high above my head, the edges of a long and narrow crack were dyed golden, revealing a line of bright white sky.
The mutants underground have no eyes, but they can keenly sense the invading sunlight, and the bright light shines into their dark world.
Dazzling, dazzling, illuminating everything, making people feel uneasy.
The world of wobbly is changing dramatically.
Countless mutants emerged from the depths of the underground cave, some fled outwards, and some slowly dived deeper into the ground.
"I want to go outside. What about you?" Seven Hands asked his companion.
The god who protected this world had completely disappeared, and he instinctively sensed danger.
A lot of humans will come in here, and it's about to become a fierce battlefield.
He didn't want to live that kind of life. He wanted to go out into the world and see where humans lived. He wanted to wander in the wilderness and ruins for a while, or find a polluted area with gods to live in.
"I want to stay." The friend who lost a wing shook his head. "I don't like strange places. I was born here and I just want to stay here."
"Aren't you leaving? A lot of sentinels will come in." said the seven hands.
"Isn't that better? It means more food." A wing bared its teeth.
She likes Sentinels, they have sweet flesh and energetic spirit that can make her stronger.
"I will hide deeper and hunt quietly until I become powerful. Become a new god."
"Well, be safe, eat more humans, and don't get killed by the Sentinels."
The seven hands looked at her reluctantly, stopped trying to persuade her, and turned their heads to run towards the high place and the bright ground.
Far away on top of the White Tower in the imperial capital.
Luther of the Royal Guard straightened his clothes and strode through the pure white palace.
He saw his Majesty, sitting in front of the only small window at the top of the tower, with a white veil on his face, playing chess alone.
The smooth, porcelain-white fingers were twisting a white chess piece, as if pondering how to place the queen on the black and white chessboard.
The morning light shone on her white dress, dreamy and beautiful like a goddess sitting by the window.
A warm feeling of attachment welled up in Luther's heart. He walked forward slowly and knelt at the queen's feet.
Her Majesty, who was wearing a white veil, listened to his report and looked up in surprise. "It collapsed? The place without pupils?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Luther's voice was very excited. "This is great news. In a short period of time, we have won many victories and recaptured an old town."
As the captain of the Royal Guard, he knew how huge the underground fortress was.
There are countless weapons and strategic materials hidden in it. In the past, it took soldiers risking their lives to bring back a little bit. Now everything there is at your fingertips, and will become the wealth of the empire.
Thinking of this, as a commander, his blood almost boiled. He even planned in his mind how to distribute those weapons and equipment, and how much the combat capabilities of the soldiers and sentries could be improved.
"Yeah, it's a really happy thing."
He heard Her Majesty the Queen say this at the window.
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but it was as if someone pinched his collar and poured a glass of ice water into his neck from behind, making him shiver all over.
Why is there such a chill
He raised his head and went to the person he had always admired.
The person was wearing a white dress, sitting by the window, with her back to the sun, and her face was a little blurry.
"That child is really unexpected."
He spoke softly and slowly extended his hand forward.
The white and soft fingers gently lifted his chin, and the fingertips moved lightly, touching his cheek, rubbing back and forth repeatedly on the scar across his eyelid.
Luther knelt on the cold ground, his whole body stiff.
It was like something was crawling along his spine, and he felt a strong emotion surging in his body, tearing at his nerves.
I can’t explain how I feel.
Intellectually, he knew that he had always admired His Majesty and was extremely eager for His Majesty's closeness.
But I don't know why I felt inexplicably scared, and a trembling of fear came from the deepest part of my heart.
It felt like my whole body was being torn apart, cold sweat slid down the skin on my back, and my toes were tense.
The person who was sitting by the window with his back to the light, looking at him with lowered brows, had a blurry face and seemed extremely scary, but also seemed to make him madly in love with him.
The pale veil, the thin red lips, and the cold fingertips gently stroked the scar, never letting go.
He felt a lot of pain, a kind of mental pain.
Even trembling in pain.
I wanted to beg for mercy, but no sound came out.
The powerful Sentinel Captain felt that he was extremely insignificant at this moment. His mind was completely caught in the vortex of chaos and he lost himself.
He didn't know how long it had been before he saw those bright red thin lips curl up slightly, and said as if to pardon her, "Go ahead."
Luther stood up exhausted and found two sweat marks on the ground where he was kneeling.
He left the White Tower in a daze, and was brought back to his senses by the cold wind outside.
Hear someone calling his name.
"old road?"
His good friend and deputy Ji Xuan was standing beside him, looking at him.
"Lao Lu, what's wrong with you?" Ji Xuan stared at his face with a little worry, "What happened with His Majesty?"
Luther shook his head and found that his memory was a little fuzzy. He couldn't remember some details of the meeting with His Majesty, but he felt that the scar on his eyelid seemed to be a bit hot and painful.
It was an old wound that had been on his face for a long time. It was caused by an extremely brutal battle when he was still on sentry post.
Although the scar could be easily erased in the treatment cabin, he didn't know why he kept it untreated.
It was as if if this scar disappeared, a part of myself would completely disappear.
"Nothing... Nothing." Luther cheered up and said to Ji Xuan, "By the way, there's news from the front that the Pupilless Land has collapsed. Send someone to help immediately."
"The Pupilless Land? Collapsed? The place Ni Ji went to?"
