"Su Mingan, if you are in pain, I can help you." Noel said.
"..." Su Mingan closed her eyes: "Help."
He knew what Noel meant.
"Shua!" There was a soft sound, and in an instant, tiny threads penetrated his spine, lifting his consciousness from his body. Since he didn't resist, the threads quickly ripped out his soul.
It is a very interesting experience to see the earth from a distance from the perspective of the soul. Su Ming'an was floating in the high air. He watched his body slowly fall down, his expression gradually disappeared in his pupils, and his consciousness faded into nothingness bit by bit...
Before turning back, he thought that Noel's method of killing was really good. It drew out the soul of a person and caused the body to exhaust its vitality and die. He didn't feel any pain when he died, but he was just a little sleepy...
He vaguely heard Noel's voice:
"Ming'an, please don't forget to respect life just because you are used to seeing death..."
…
Week 29.
The black crow reaches straight into the sky, and the coordinates of the fourth Dawn Code are high in the sky.
The triggering time of this code requires that it be after six o'clock in the morning, and Noel already knows that he will die in a nuclear explosion. He raised his head high, and his slightly longer blond hair brushed his back, like a bird flying into the sky.
The adventurer is not fearless, he is also afraid of death, but if death is meaningful to his journey, he can have the courage to face death.
The violent wind and snow blew Noel's blond hair, and he squinted his eyes and smiled.
"Su Mingan." Noel said, "I'm so happy..."
……happy.
It was obvious that he was struggling repeatedly in reincarnation, but at this moment, Su Ming'an actually felt such emotions in the smiling young boy.
"Su Ming'an, I'm very happy to take risks with you." Noel said.
"Really..." Su Mingan said.
"boom--!"
At six o'clock in the morning, dazzling spots of light rose across the earth. Orange-white mushroom clouds grew from the dry red soil. Circles of scalding heat spread to high altitudes. Noel's body began to disappear, and his skin was like burning wax oil. melt. The fire wave lifted Noel's white robe and licked his flowing blond hair. He looked calm and was not in pain from physical torture.
Facing Su Ming'an, who was protected by the source light and was unharmed, Noel just opened his mouth and smiled, and his body quickly burned into fine bones.
Noel's skin spread out like gravel between Su Mingan's fingers, and the black crow under his feet fell due to the loss of life. The height began to decrease, and it was getting farther and farther away from the triggering position of the password——
"Shuashuashua——"
Suddenly, he heard several taut sounds, and several transparent silk threads swayed in the air, tightly clinging to Black Crow's mutilated body. The other end of the thread was invisible to the naked eye and seemed to be pierced into the void.
——These are the threads left behind by Noel before his death.
They tightly strangled the position of the black crow's body, providing Su Ming'an with enough height. Noel spent his last days paving the way for him.
However, the silk thread lost its controller and could not bear the huge weight of the black crow's body, and there was a "stabbing" sound of collapse.
Su Mingan grabbed Noel's bones and got into the flying wheelchair.
"Bang!" There was a crisp sound, the thread broke, and the black crow's huge corpse fell from the sky, like a thick dark cloud.
At the same time, the wheelchair surged up and ran away from the falling black crow.
In the sky with black stars floating in the sky, Su Mingan held the hot bones in his arms, aiming at the precise password triggering time, and stretched out his hand high——
"Ding dong!"
[You get the dynamic password·the fourth digit·Mi. 】
Birds fall high in the sky.
…
The thirtieth week.
Su Mingan got up in the snow and chose to make a fuss in the City of God with Noel and Yamada Machichi. The fifth Dawn Code is inside the City of Gods.
Taking advantage of Noel and Yamada Machi's desperate efforts to hold Lin Guang back, Su Mingan used spatial displacement to leave the battlefield and go to the bottom of the City of Gods.
However, even though he repeatedly walked through the location where the fifth code was supposed to be triggered, he did not get the code prompt.
……what happened?
The triggering time of the password is calculated by the Dawn system and cannot be wrong. There can only be a problem with the location... It seems that North Lisel lied about the location of the fifth code.
Su Mingan frowned. It was too late to go find Beiliseer. It was three o'clock in the morning and he could only wait for the next week.
He can rest this week.
What is he going to do now? Should we go back and fight Lin Guang together, go out of the city to see the battlefield on Su Lin's side, or commit suicide directly to end it...?
He was walking on the corridor, and the light shone in front of his eyes. At this moment, he suddenly felt a little confused, as if he was in some floating dream.
With nothing to do, he suddenly felt empty, as if he had to move towards some goal, and it felt strange to take a break.
"..."
He thought for a moment and decided to walk around the central building to see if Lin Guang had any secret weapons hidden.
As he was walking, he heard the voice of the gods coming to his ears:
"Lu Shu, what on earth are you doing?"
"As a god who knows everything, don't you know?" Su Mingan said.
The god's voice was mixed with confusion: "I can't read minds. I can't see any logical connection from your actions. It seems that there is a logical chain out of thin air supporting your actions. What are you looking for?"
Su Ming'an suddenly felt at ease.
—The gods do not know the location of the Dawn Code.
He thought that gods knew everything as a plug-in, but there were things that gods didn't know.
"I'm just taking a walk." Su Mingan said.
"Take a walk?" The god raised his tone, seemingly in disbelief. After a moment, his voice returned to its original calmness and gentleness: "It doesn't matter, you have the freedom to give up Caius Tower. Our bet is just whether you can Restart the Dawn system."
...God, you seem to be surprised.
"By the way, do you know what Beilisel is most afraid of?" Su Mingan said suddenly.
"Hmm... He's a little afraid of heights? He likes the feeling of his feet on the ground."
"Okay." Su Mingan said nothing.
He continued walking forward and stopped when he passed by a closed room - he remembered that Lin Guang was wary of this room. When he approached the door, Lin Guang shot and interrupted him. leg.
The amber knife stabbed forward, and he activated the equipment skill.
…
[Active skill (condensation): The next attack will have a "space fragmentation" effect, additional slashing damage to the enemy in front of you, and a "destructive power" enhancement effect to the items in front of you. 】
…
This skill can be called a door-breaking weapon. Even though the door has been equipped with layers of defenses, it is still crushed by Su Ming'an's terrifying space level and shatters like popcorn.
"Crack, crackle -"
Su Mingan wanted to see what was in the room that made Lin Guang so nervous. Even AI Yeya could not break through the highest defense here.
Stepping on the glass pieces that reflected the broken light, he turned on the light on his wheelchair, illuminating the dim interior.
The moment he saw the scene in the room clearly, his pupils tightened.
"..."
He saw a spectacular scene.
It was like stepping into a scarlet dream tunnel. He stepped into it and was surrounded by countless portraits and photos. They were solidified on the wall like butterfly specimens. The frames were uneven, like melted golden wax oil. In the thick, scarlet-based room wall color, it is like a work of art trapped in a sea of blood.
The swaying golden ceiling swayed, and the mottled golden light reflected on the film of the painting paper. The portraits in the painting almost fell out of the frame, extremely vivid in the fine reflections, with a smile on their faces. Bright color.
And these portraits and photos - without exception, are all of him.
It's not Akto, it's him, it's Su Mingan.
There are photos of him wearing a white coat and walking around the experimental area of District 11. There are photos of him standing high in the sky to prevent tens of thousands of alien beasts from attacking the city. There are photos of him holding an empty cup at the return dinner. There are also photos of him standing in the wind and snow. Photos of sleeping in a cave... Hundreds of photos are posted in this room, including front views, profile views, and back views. It looks like most of them are filter repairs after remote shooting. The timeline runs through the 32 years since the disaster when he stepped into Caius Tower, all the way to the present day.
Smiling, calm, thinking, slightly angry, indifferent... all kinds of his expressions are reflected in the frame, like an exhibition of his personal image.
"..."
Su Ming'an didn't expect that Lin Guang could get all these photos - forget about the photo of the alien beasts attacking the city, how did Lin Guang get the photo of the return dinner?
Could it be that Lin Guang had already sneaked into his side?
Are these photos and paintings... related to some kind of curse ritual? It can't be just a painting, right?
He moved his eyes and saw an oil painting in the center. It was the scene of him and Lin Guang walking under the moonlight at the beginning of Caiusta. The bamboo-like flute was held in Lin Guang's hand, and the gun barrel at his waist was engraved with beautiful golden color. At that time, Su Mingan had just started his career in Fenghuo Gathering Area.
The whole painting is in cold colors, except for the side where Su Mingan is located, which is surrounded by bright street lights, reflecting the darkness on Lin Guang's side. This painting is called [Missing], and in the lower right corner is the Chinese character Long Guo, which is crooked and written by Lin Guang himself.
Next to it is an oil painting of a garden villa in District 11, titled "First Meeting with a Friend". The dust in the painting is bright and dark in the light pillars cut by the leaves. It is painted with a large number of magnificent warm colors. A white man The young man was walking among the lilies and roses.
This moment seems to have overlapped for sixteen years. Lin Guang's eyes in the picture are extremely bright, as if they have penetrated the film and glass shell, and are looking at Su Ming'an who is looking at the portrait.
"..."
Su Mingan remembered that Lin Guang could draw.
So, this room doesn’t have any secret weapon, just some irrelevant paintings and photos?
He walked half a circle around the room, flipping through the backs of the frames, trying to trigger some clues, but getting none.
In the locked cabinet, Su Mingan opened the lock with annihilation and dug out a personal terminal.
...an unexpected surprise.
This is Lin Guang's personal terminal, which should contain the combat data of the City of Gods.
A password is required to open the terminal. While waiting for AI Yaya to invade, Su Mingan tentatively entered a line of password.
【luweisi】
[The password is correct, welcome to the terminal. 】
"..."
It's actually correct.
Su Mingan pressed the "enter" button, and the startup wallpaper that came into view was a poem that Violet once read to Lin Guang:
[——You are the music, the sky, the palace, the river, the angel, the deep rose that God shows to my blind eyes, secret and without end. 】
He moved the cursor. The screen of this personal terminal was very clean. There were no messy programs. There was only a txt file named "Notebook"...
"boom!"
There was a crisp sound, and the personal terminal in Su Mingan's hand suddenly shattered. Outside the dimly lit door, Lin Guang held up a gun and held two corpses in his hands.
Looks like this week's break is over.
"Happy Blessings Day, Luvis." Lin Guang said.
"..."
Su Mingan put down the damaged personal terminal and raised the Lamb Barrier.
After seeing everything in the room, he already understood Lin Guang's feelings for him. It should be some kind of "anchoring" emotion, just like he and Yue Yue had.
Lin Guang does not have companions like Yue Yue, Lu Shu, Nuo Er, Yamada Machichi, and Luna around him. All he can feel is cold eyes and fear, so he will treat those close to him as life. Human beings are social animals after all. After living in such a deserted and cold city for a long time, he can only save himself and try to find the anchor in his heart.
It's a pity that the person Lin Guang should be looking for is Akto, and they are his original partners. If Su Mingan was not possessed by Akto's body, they would not have any contact at all.
The moment before committing suicide, Su Mingan raised his eyes.
——He suddenly saw a unique photo among the hundreds of photos indoors.
In the photo, he is wearing the clothes of ordinary residents, sitting with Xiaomei in the cinema. Her hands are timidly placed by her side, not even daring to get popcorn. He was recording the content of the movie - this was the fifth day after the copy was opened. He and Xiaomei went to see photos of the movie "Do Electronic Hearts Dream of Real Things?"
It's the fifth day since the dungeon was opened, and Kaiusta hasn't started yet. This is a photo of him in the City of Measurement.
How come there is Lin Guang here...
His vision gradually dimmed, and everything in front of him gradually turned into nothingness.
…
[(TE1·"The Pioneer is Immortal, the Dawn is Eternal") Perfect clearance progress: 95%]
…
In the thirty-first week, Su Mingan went to the room again, but still couldn't open the txt diary. Lin Guang stopped him like crazy.
On the 33rd week, Su Mingan no longer paid attention to the personal terminal, and went directly to the valley of North Lisel with Noel.
As soon as they entered the valley, Beiliseer was hoisted high by Su Mingan. Even Noel was shocked by Su Mingan's "cruel" behavior.
"Actor, you seem a bit unique today." Beilisel's legs were hanging on the grape trellis, and his whole body was trembling: "How could I have such a dream? I don't have such a hobby..."
"It's okay." Su Mingan said, "I just want to talk to you about life and ideals."
