Chapter 190 Gone Like Yesterday

The creation of the world hangs high in the night sky, the cold wind blows over the boundless sea, the fine waves float gently around, and the boat sways like a dream that is about to wake up before dawn.

But Alice actually doesn't know what "dreaming" is - she has been sleeping for a long time, but has never really dreamed like a human being, but she guesses that dreaming should be a state similar to this.

Floating in a very large place, my thoughts also started to wander.

She raised her head and saw that there was only sea water in the distance. The distant lights of the Lost Home were like tiny candlelight floating on the sea. It even gave her a feeling, as if the whole world had disappeared and she was the only one left. She, the boat beneath her, and the boundless sea.

Oh, and there are three final preachers who are tied up opposite.

Miss Doll retracted her gaze from the distance and curiously looked at the cultists tied in front of her.

These are human beings, the bad kind - Alice doesn't know any humans, but she knows that there are good people and bad people among humans. Good people do good things, Captain Duncan will praise them and sometimes help them, and bad people will Captain Duncan would despise them if they did very bad things, and would sometimes report them, but the three in front of him... were the ones the captain disliked the most.

They believe in subspace and follow vicious beliefs. For their own fictitious righteousness, they can kill anyone, even attack a poor little girl who lives with a dog. If the defenders of the city-state discover them, they will not hesitate. They would randomly shoot them to death in the streets. If sailors at sea found them, they would hang them on the mast. Even if the most vicious pirates found them, they would stuff these lunatics into wooden boxes and throw them away. In the sea, this way is used to pray for the protection of the storm goddess.

But now they are tied up and quiet, and there is no sign of any crazy and out-of-control impulses - Alice still remembers the scary look of these people when they first arrived on the ship. At that time, these people were as excited as if they were eating. It's like taking the wrong medicine.

Now as time goes by, these final evangelists are becoming more and more honest.

"Are you scared?" After holding it in for a long time, Alice finally couldn't help but speak. She was really uncomfortable here, even though she knew that this was necessary to enable her to function in the human city-state. " "Safety test", this feeling of floating on the boundless sea still made her feel uneasy.

One of the final evangelists responded to the puppet's voice. His skinny skull-like head slowly lifted up and stared into Alice's eyes: "Stupid filth, clumsy body...your soul is pale and pale. Neither the hollow nor the subspace will take it in..."

Alice was stunned for a moment, and it took a few seconds to react: "Hey, why are you swearing!"

The final preachers on the opposite side just let out a series of hoarse and unpleasant laughter. They seemed to have no fear at all against "Anomaly 099" that frightened the world.

Or as they themselves claim, they have already transcended the concept of life and death and no longer care about the coming of death in the real world.

Alice had no choice but to sulk, but after a while, she shook her head again: "I'm not angry anymore."

Another Evangelist of the Final Year raised his head and glanced at her without saying a word.

Alice said to herself: "I shouldn't be angry, but you can complain a bit. After all, it's you who are tied up now, not me, and you, not me, are the ones who have to do this kind of head-dropping test," the captain said. However, you should not get too carried away when the wind is favorable, because the waves will capsize the boat, and people will jump to death...and you have all fallen to this, my lord, I will allow you to speak a few words without restraint."

In the end, the missionaries sat in silence in the cabin, listening to the doll's babble, as if the latter's voice was completely blocked, but after a while Alice still noticed some "little movements" among these people——

They were looking at each other's heads calmly, moving their necks from time to time, and occasionally looking cautiously this way, with doubts in their eyes.

Alice thought about it carefully and thought that these people might be curious about why their heads were still on their necks.

These cultists obviously know the information about Anomaly 099. They may not be afraid of death, but they are still curious. After staying in close proximity with Anomaly 099 for so long, they find it difficult to understand their own survival.

"Actually, I'm a little scared," Alice said suddenly, "I'm just afraid that your heads will suddenly fall off - the captain said that I have the ability to decapitate people. I was shocked when I first heard it. .Humans are different from me. If a human’s head falls off, it can’t be put back..."

A sound of flapping wings suddenly came from above. Alice looked curiously towards the direction of the sound and saw the pigeon Ai Yin suddenly flying into the distance. After a while, it flew from the direction of the Lost Home again. It flew over with green flames rising from its body.

Ai Yin turned twice on the sea near the boat, and green flames rose into the sky. In the grand whirlpool of flames, a gorgeous wooden box appeared out of thin air, and then fell with a plop on the sea next to it.

"My box!" Alice suddenly opened her eyes wide and shouted in surprise. Then the words "sweep out" appeared in her mind, and her head almost fell off her neck - but then she I noticed that there seemed to be a note stuck on the wooden box, so I quickly paddled it twice with the paddle at hand, leaned over and took off the note, and saw a line of words written on it:

"The guillotine ability may also be related to your wooden box. Send it to the test together. Also: You must be thinking wildly that I will drive you off the ship - don't think nonsense, come back after completing the test."

Alice picked up the note and read it over and over several times, but found that she didn't understand it.

She is illiterate...

But soon she saw something else on the back of the note. It was a scrawled simple drawing of her rowing back to the Lost Home, with a smiling expression at the end.

Miss Doll then understood - no matter what was written on the front of the note, the captain had no intention of driving her away.

She felt relieved, carefully put away the note, and then picked up the wooden box from the sea. With a "bang", she threw the actually quite heavy box on the boat with one hand. Then she looked up and looked at the few people on the opposite side. A cultist: "Are you hungry?"

The missionaries did not respond, and she did not care. She just muttered to herself: "Although the captain said that you are worthy of death, he also said that if you can really complete the test without dying, he will not kill you - —He wants to bring you back into the city-state to use...what are you called..."

Miss Doll was a little stuck. She tried hard to recall and then remembered what the captain had said to her before: "Oh, it is used to show the concern of the enthusiastic citizens for the security of the city... He said that you are worth at least seven bicycles. What is a bicycle?" ah?"

"The subspace will give us food and warmth... the subspace will give us peace... the subspace will bless all those who perish. After all the ends come as promised..." A final preacher muttered vaguely. He stood up, seeming to be responding to Alice's nagging, or just praying some kind of blasphemous prayer, "We walk in the end, abandoning this cursed flesh and blood, and our minds will cross that wall, and in the new world Open your eyes again..."

"Ah?" Alice was confused. "What are you talking about?"

Eventually, the missionaries stopped responding to her, and they didn't give any response after that.

From then on until dawn, they just lowered their heads and muttered, mumbling about things related to subspace, mumbling about the end of a long river of time, a doomsday that was destined to come and should come, in the wind. In the undulating sea waves, apart from the sound of small waves lapping against the ship's board, the only thing left was the non-stop mumbling of these madmen.

This is an atmosphere that can make ordinary people's hair stand on end, and the content of its prayers can even make those who are weak-willed be cursed, infected and entangled by shadows from the depths of the world. However, Alice only feels noisy.

She got the little note from the captain, so she no longer feared the drift, but now she was filled with boredom.

But the boring time is finally over.

A ray of morning light suddenly appeared on the distant sea. In the faint morning light, the creation of the world in the sky quickly faded and became dull. The sun locked by the double runes gradually emerged from the sea and jumped into the sky.

Its daybreak.

Alice didn't behead anyone.

Miss Doll happily watched the sunrise. She stood up from the wooden box and turned to look at the cultists: "Hey! It's dawn! You are still alive! We can go back!"

However, the three final evangelists did not respond to her. They just remained crouched in the cabin, lowered their heads and whispered softly. In the short darkness before the sun was about to shine into the cabin, they called for the subspace for the last time. s concern".

It wasn't until Alice reminded her again that one of them finally raised his head. The cultist glanced at the slowly spreading sunlight and was a little dazed, but gradually a strange smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, another day for us is over..." The crazy man sighed softly, then slowly turned his head and looked at Alice's eyes as perfect as gemstones, with a strange mixture of madness and calmness in his smile. , "Doll, we will meet again one day."

"Ah?" Alice was stunned, "What do you mean? You can still run away out of thin air..."

The sun spreads over.

The figures of the three final evangelists disappeared silently into the morning light, like the disappearing phantoms of yesterday.

"You didn't run away..." Alice said half of the sentence under the influence of inertia and stared, "You really ran away?"
