(Um?)
It was like a huge lightning bolt suddenly flashed across the heavy rain. It was so late and so fast. Just when He Fei was troubled by his thoughts and didn't know where to start, he suddenly thought of something. He was immersed in memories for no reason. Then I remembered something from my memories, an earlier past that I still remember until now. In my memory, when I went to the carriage to check the mission information, Zhao Ping, who was also at the scene, specifically mentioned the word "loneliness" .
Lonely!
Yes, it was loneliness. Because the name of this mission was rather weird, Zhao Ping paid a little attention to it at that time. Later, he further speculated that loneliness might be a key point. Seeing that Zhao Ping mentioned it deliberately, He Fei would definitely keep it in mind. If he ignored it, , then it is impossible for him to think of this at this moment. However, who would have thought that it was precisely because of the sudden thought of the word 'loneliness' that He Fei found the starting point of analysis! Not only did I find the direction to start with, but I even further connected "solitude" with day and night!
(Loneliness literally means separation. It generally refers to the separation and farewell between people. It means that the two parties are separated and cannot meet each other. Day and night do separate the mummy hopper and the purple-haired female hopper, so that one of them can only appear during the day, and the other They can only appear at night, so the couple who love each other can never see each other. Since they can't see each other, loneliness reasonably explains the state of both parties. Since the two oysters are equally lonely, what is the way to eliminate loneliness? The method is very simple. , just let both parties meet. This is an answer so simple that even children know it, but the problem is...)
(I can’t meet! There is no way to meet. Due to the painful curse imposed by the devil, whether it is a mummy or a purple-haired female, the two sides are tightly restricted day and night. During the day, the mummy cannot see As for the Purple-haired Lady, the Purple-haired Lady also cannot find the mummy at night, so this is a dead end with no solution, a dead end that no matter how you think about it, there is no way to solve it, at least as a mortal executor. There is no solution in my eyes...Huh? Wait, wait, the sky, the sky outside the window...)
There was no reason, no reason, to keep his brain running at a high speed. At the last moment when He Fei was about to fall into a dead end of thinking again, he kept staring at the light beam and discovered something. Through the distant castle window, he saw the outside world and witnessed Sky.
As far as the eye can see, I can see that the sky that was dim earlier has brightened significantly. The darkness is about to disappear, and daytime is coming! .
Yes, with the help of the unique and powerful defense of the Brilliant Pearl, the Executor has been able to hold on until now. He has persisted for half an hour under the crazy attack of the female locust. As time passes by, the sky that is already approaching daytime naturally becomes a little bit brighter. It gets brighter, a little bit brighter, and the current specific time is...
5:44 in the morning!
One minute, only one minute left, only the last minute left before the light beam! ! !
what does that mean?
It means that He Fei is about to die, Zhao Ping is about to die, Peng Hu is about to die, and everyone is about to die. In just one minute, the light pillar that originally protected them will disappear, and as long as the light pillar disappears, then it will be The death date of He Fei and everyone else, they will die, and will soon be blasted to pieces by the crazy female!
This is the final death sentence, this is the last remaining time, but, or rather strangely...
Seeing that there was not much time left, He Fei was no longer afraid of the imminent annihilation of his entire army. His inner fear had basically disappeared, at least it was no longer as full of despair as before. There was only one reason why he was no longer afraid, and that was...
"I found it, I found it, I found a way to eliminate the curse!!!"
……………
The second day of the supernatural mission, early morning, 5:44, Chris Castle.
"Die! Die to me all!"
burst! Boom, boom!
Accompanied by vicious roars full of madness and bursts of explosions, the hall became an elemental hell. For a time, flames, frost, thunder and lightning, and even weird black energy all flashed and flew like rain, and they were all covered by purple hair. The female locust shook her hand away, and then frequently exploded violently in front of the light beam, and the cycle continued endlessly. Even though she knew that magic consumes energy, the female locust was as tireless as if she had infinite energy. She just bombarded her with magic like this. , she herself has already gone crazy, her eyes are as black as abyss, her face is twisted and ferocious, her long hair is flying in all directions, and her body is covered with a layer of bloody red light due to excessive magic leakage!
Tyranny, cruelty, madness, and the violence that has been suppressed for thousands of years have wiped out the girl's sanity. Now she just wants to kill, kill, kill, kill, kill all these ant-like humans, kill them all!
"Death! I want you to die! Hahahahaha!"
During the roar, the roar, and the wild laughter that followed, the magic intensity began to increase, and the already huge and astonishing elemental energy further expanded in size. As the energy amplitude became more and more intense, the attack intensity surged, and the roof was shaken by the explosion. Debris fell and the ground shook faintly, causing a slight earthquake! ! !
As for the light pillar, that red light pillar erected in the center of the hall...
The light pillar is still indestructible, still solid and motionless in the middle like Mount Tai. No matter how much magic is bombarded, it cannot have any impact on the light pillar. However, being indestructible does not mean absolute eternity. As time goes by, the light pillar that was originally rich in color is now seen. It becomes significantly darker, becomes more and more transparent, and even dims to the point where it is impossible to see. There is no doubt that the light column is about to disappear, and it will no longer be able to support it!
Within the light pillar, the executor saw the surge in female mana's magic power. The slight vibration on the ground was seen by the executor. The impending disappearance of the light pillar was still visible to everyone.
One minute, the last 60 seconds.
Staring at the magic that frequently exploded like a tsunami in front of them, and listening to the tyrannical laughter that filled the audience with violence, and the dim light beam was about to disappear, at this moment, the executioners collectively fell into a rare trance, whether it was Cheng Ying, Peng Hu, who was not afraid of death, Or Zhao Ping and Chen Shuihong, who are all afraid of death, including Tang Meng and Qiao Mengting, all the conscious people are staring in front of them in a daze, and the reason why these people are silent and frozen is only reality, which seems to last forever. A cruel reality that cannot be changed.
Reality represents death, and death foreshadows destiny. There is an invisible hand controlling their destiny. It first controls, then plays with, and then pushes them into the abyss of death.
In fact, when the situation has developed to this point, there is no need to think about any problems, and there is no need to waste any time to say anything. Facing the sea of magic that is constantly bombarding the female slugs, they have only a few dozen seconds left to live. What can they say? What? It can be said categorically that as long as the light beam disappears, they will be instantly blown into ashes by the intensive magic. Death is a foregone conclusion and destruction is doomed. Therefore, there is no need, there is no need to talk. What is left is despair. Unspeakable despair! .
"Hey, I didn't expect that I would die in the end..."
In despair, as if he finally recognized the reality, he sighed. Peng Hu broke away and looked at Cheng Ying. Sure enough, under the bald man's innocent eyes, with a trace of reluctance, Cheng Ying gritted his teeth. Draw out the dagger.
Yes, it is confirmed that the last moment has arrived. In order to avoid the pain of being blown into pieces and dying, Cheng Ying decided to take action in advance and planned to personally kill these friends she cherished and cared about. She wanted to kill Peng Hu, Chen Xiaoyao, Kong Ling , Li Tianheng, Tang Meng and everyone present, maybe this is cruel, but she has to do it. As a professional killer, killing is just a trivial matter to Cheng Ying. It is not much different from ordinary people eating and drinking, so she does not She will feel guilty, but she will also have regrets, which represent deep-seated regrets for farewell. Unfortunately, regrets cannot be avoided. What she has to do now is to create regrets with her own hands, and try her best to do something for everyone in the desperate situation where she is destined to die. What, and now the only thing she can do is to say goodbye with regret, say goodbye to Peng Hu, and say goodbye to all her partners and teammates who are recognized by her.
"Ah... no, no, I don't want to die, I, I don't want to die." Perhaps he knew that his end was coming, or he saw Cheng Ying's movements and saw the female killer and decisively pulled out the dagger, unlike Peng Hu The grin on his face was almost calm. Unlike Tang Meng who was silent and resigned to his fate, Chen Shuihong, who also knew what this meant, collapsed, completely collapsed. He just muttered to himself while Cheng Ying held the dagger in his hand and his fat body shook wildly. , obviously looking timid and miserable even though he didn’t want to die but couldn’t find a reason to refuse. Of course he knew that the female killer was helping him, but the desire for life in his heart made him instinctively resist death. Yes, even if Cheng Ying could significantly reduce her own It's painful, but in the final analysis, you still have to die!
As for Zhao Ping...
Different from Chen Shuihong's entanglement and timidity, although he is also afraid of death, the man with glasses has been through many storms after all, and his mind has already surpassed that of most people in the world. As expected, when he saw things he couldn't do anything about, he who was frightened earlier suddenly regained his composure instantly , once again turned into the indifferent man who always had an expressionless face. He remained expressionless. Instead of waiting for Cheng Ying to make a move like the others, he took the initiative to reach into his arms, and then took out a police pistol.
As soon as he took out the pistol, the man turned it around and pointed it at himself, with the muzzle of the gun pressed directly against his temple.
At the same time, at the same moment when Zhao Ping was about to commit suicide with the gun against him, at Peng Hu's nod, Cheng Ying moved with lightning, and the tip of the knife suddenly stabbed Peng Hu, fiercely stabbing the opponent's heart!
brush!
With a cold roar, the blade broke through the air and went straight to the chest, but...
Just when Zhao Ping pulled the trigger with his finger, and at the last moment when Cheng Ying was about to insert the dagger into Peng Hu's heart, an accident happened, and what represented the accident was He Fei's sudden appearance. Yelled violently:
"I found it, I found it, I found a way to eliminate the curse!!!"
What!
It was as if the death row prisoner suddenly received a notice of pardon before being executed. Hearing He Fei's roar, Zhao Ping's pupils shrank in an instant, and the finger that had already been pressed for nearly half of the time stopped for an instant. Except for the man with glasses who stopped immediately, all the others had already stabbed. The dagger that broke Peng Hu's skin also stopped abruptly under Cheng Ying's control. Then, Zhao Ping suddenly turned back, Peng Hu suddenly turned back, Cheng Ying suddenly turned back, and everyone turned their eyes to the opposite side, looking at He Fei!
"What? Brother, what did you say? Is there a way? You...you found a way to eliminate the curse?".
As expected, seeing the serious expression on the college student's face, the crowd was in an uproar and did not care about committing suicide. Peng Hu opened his eyes and asked excitedly. Not only Peng Hu was excited, but even Zhao Ping and Cheng Ying, who had always been indifferent, opened their eyes unconsciously. His eyebrows were excited, and he and Tang Meng, who also had a sudden change in expression, locked onto He Fei. Chen Shuihong, who was already extremely afraid of death, became even more excited after hearing He Fei's words. He was so excited that he shed tears and almost burst into tears. Obviously, everyone who had been desperate for a long time was shocked after receiving He Fei's urgent notice. They never dreamed that He Fei actually understood the oil painting and found out from the weird background where no one could see the slightest clue. The solution, this is a miracle, a complete miracle. In addition, the incident happened suddenly and without warning. There is no denying that several people were doubtful when they first heard the news. However, based on their trust in He Fei, in the end, including Zhao Including Ping, they still chose to believe. No one raised any questions during the period, so they believed in He Fei unconditionally.
If the above people chose to believe and were excited because they had seen He Fei's abilities, then Qiao Mengting, who performed a supernatural mission for the first time, believed without any reason, and what prompted her to choose to believe was still her subconscious, just like the original oil painting As a reminder, this time, the girl's personal intuition still told her one thing very clearly:
The young man in front of me has the ability to change his destiny! ! !
The picture returns to reality.
"Brother He, hurry up! Tell me the solution quickly? The light beam, the light beam will disappear soon!" With excitement in his heart, Chen Shuihong's fat body trembled and he urged He Fei to make the solution public quickly. The reason was just as he said just now As time goes by, the light pillar is about to disappear, and the time left for everyone is less than half a minute! After half a minute, the light pillar will completely disappear, and once the light pillar disappears, they will be blown to death by the magic that the female wolf is throwing at them in an instant.
However, the strange thing is that although it was clear that his death was approaching and was imminent, He Fei did not tell everyone how to do it. Instead, under the nervous gaze of everyone, he turned back and looked to the opposite side, looking at the purple-haired female beetle who had already become extremely violent. He stared intently through the light beam. Going there, I saw a ferocious female locust, her whole body blood red, and her overly violent aura evolved into a blood-colored sinister wind visible to the naked eye! For a time, in addition to the continuous magical light, the scene was wrapped in red mist, the hall was shrouded in red mist, and even the entire castle was filled with extremely violent blood red! ! ! (Oh my God, is this the true strength of the purple-haired female? It’s so unbelievable. The actual strength has greatly exceeded my psychological expectations. In fact, except for the bright beads that are equivalent to bugs, all other props cannot stop it. She, no kind of props can stop the female mango even for a minute.)
Seeing this, smart people must have almost guessed He Fei's intention, that is, why he turned back to observe the female slug. The reason is very simple, that is, He Fei was very conscious and knew that he still had half a minute to survive. He still maintained basic sanity despite the situation, but his sanity told him that even if he found a way to eliminate the curse, that method could not be used now and would have to wait for a while before it could be implemented.
what does that mean?
This means that he cannot use it immediately as Chen Shuihong or others imagined, and cannot use the means before the light beam disappears. Since it is temporarily unavailable, the result is obvious. What is the result?
The result is that time will continue to pass while waiting, and then the light beam disappears, and then they will face the female loculi without protection, facing this purple-haired female loculi in front of them that is fully capable of destroying them all in an instant!
Thinking of this, while maintaining a complicated expression, He Fei finally spoke, turning around and announcing the actual answer to the already impatient crowd: "The method cannot be used immediately, and you have to wait 15 minutes before it can be used, so we have to find a way to resist the female locusts." Delaying time, no matter what, I have to hold you back for 15 minutes."
What! ! !
"Can't use it immediately? Do you have to wait 15 minutes? You, you... Brother He, are you kidding me?"
Sure enough, after hearing He Fei's truthful words, everyone who had just had hope was suddenly dumbfounded. Almost everyone was frightened by what He Fei said and their legs went weak. Chen Shuihong was even frightened and almost staggered. After falling down and finally regaining his balance, the fat man stared in shock and asked. In his opinion, He Fei was joking, and most likely he was teasing himself. After all, even an idiot could see that the purple-haired girl was so powerful that she was so powerful. God, as long as the female is willing, she can take advantage of the moment when the light beam disappears to repeat her old trick and use the previous wall of unsolvable fire to squeeze them again, leaving them with no way to escape but to wait for death!
"Are you sure?" Seeing He Fei's vow and frowning, Cheng Ying couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure you want to wait 15 minutes? Wait until 6 o'clock in the morning?"
When Cheng Ying asked, Zhao Ping also followed closely and looked at He Fei. His cold eyes were locked on the young man's eyes, as if he wanted to find out all the answers in the young man's eyes. Zhao Ping did the same, and Peng Hu did the same. Tang Meng, who had been observing from the sidelines, widened her eyes after hearing the waiting news. On the contrary, Qiao Mengting, who always believed in her personal intuition, did not react much. The girl did nothing, nothing, and still stared with a firm gaze. He Fei.
If possible, in the face of everyone's horrified questions, He Fei would definitely explain in detail and answer them one by one. Unfortunately, he ran out of time, and the beam of light that was about to disappear in ten seconds reminded him that his death was approaching, so...
"I'm sure! We have to endure the time, we have to hold on forcibly for 15 minutes in the massacre of the female locusts! Only by persisting until 6 o'clock in the morning can we use the method to eliminate the curse!"
Cheng Ying's probing inquiry was met with He Fei's resolute answer. Seeing the fact, Peng Hu suddenly became anxious and hurriedly shook his muscles and answered anxiously: "It's okay to stay up for a long time, and it's not impossible to hold Nvji back, but the problem is that we What are we using to delay the time? My props have long been exhausted, and the others are probably about the same. Well, even if our props are still usable, you have also seen how powerful the purple-haired female is. She is immune to props, so she is not afraid of any attack at all! Even defensive props can’t withstand the perverted magic of the female slug, right? Mom, fireballs bigger than cars are raining down like crazy, and it’s probably a few hits. We can break through the defense."
"Yes, yes, brother Peng is right. I have also used up all my props. We have no more props to delay the female hawk!" In order to further prove that the props were exhausted, as soon as Peng Hu finished speaking, Chen Shuihong also saw the opportunity. Others echoed, although Cheng Ying and Zhao Ping did not speak during this period, but in fact the silence alone was enough to prove that the two of them were the same. Cheng Ying did not have any props suitable for delaying time, while Zhao Ping simply ran out of props. His supernatural powers The number of camera shots was exhausted, and his life replacement card was used by He Fei. The only dazzling bead that could delay the time to resist the female locust was about to disappear, so like Peng Hu, Cheng Ying had nothing to do, and Zhao Ping had nothing to do, even if it was He Fei, who came up with the delaying strategy, had already exhausted all his props, not to mention the others. In order to ensure that the operation would not be interfered with, Li Tianheng once risked his life to lure away the female locust, and then she ran out of props and was absorbed by the locust. , if He Fei had not rescued him, he would not be as skinny as firewood now, and there would probably be no body left. However, Chen Xiaoyao and Kong Ling's props are rather special. Whether it is Chen Xiaoyao's tiger charm or Kong Ling's soul thermometer, others cannot use it. So for now, except for the dazzling beads that are equivalent to bugs, the executor cannot use props to hold down the female beetle. Even if there is an estimate, it will be of little significance as Peng Hu said. After all, the purple-haired female beetle is extremely powerful. , she is neither afraid of the attacks of exorcism items nor ignores the obstruction of defense items, and what is even more regrettable is...
Although the dazzling bead is the only prop that can delay the girl for a long time, it is now on the verge of disappearing. The indestructible light beam becomes dim and transparent as time goes by. In just 10 seconds, the light beam will completely disappear.
10 seconds.
There are only 10 seconds left for the executor to discuss a solution, and the survival time for everyone is also only 10 seconds.
Unfortunately, there is no way. When all the props are exhausted, the executor can't find even one prop that can continue to resist the female locust after the light beam disappears. Because of this, after knowing It took a full 15 minutes to remove the curse. Peng Hu was desperate, Cheng Ying was desperate, Tang Meng was desperate, and Chen Shuihong, who thought he could escape death, instantly collapsed and fell to the ground, his whole body in despair. knock down.
However, there are exceptions. If we exclude Qiao Mengting who has always been calm because she believes in her intuition, Zhao Ping has also become a special case and one of the few executors who has never despaired. At this moment, watching He Fei who was calm throughout the whole process, he adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. , the man narrowed his eyes slightly, and then asked He Fei a question, a question that surprised everyone present:
"As expected, you have already thought of a way to delay the female beetle, right?"
