Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 554

[Chapter 552 Double Realm]

(She wakes up from a chaotic sleep, touching this strange and incomprehensible world like a newborn baby. The broken memories and thoughts are like the rising and falling foam on the sea. Over a long period of time, Neither can form complete consciousness and cognition.

The whole world seems to be shrouded in a thick curtain, and its own perception seems to have been shattered and reorganized a thousand times by invisible forces. The mind cannot understand those crazy and chaotic sensory signals. The rumbling noises and dark and scary lights and shadows seemed to be directly engraved on the nerves, stirring the consciousness and tingling the thinking.

He tried to take steps forward, tried to distinguish the things around him, tried to remember himself, tried to Understand the current situation.

Countless shadowy things surround him. Those things have amorphous outlines, and there are psychedelic holes floating on the upright body. Weird airflow flows in those holes, making indescribable whistling. and hissing sounds, which makes people feel even more terrifying.

Then, a warm glow appears in the perception. Following this warmth, she wakes up from the darkness and forgets her own existence and starts to walk forward slowly…) Nina

suddenly Putting down the cheap accessories he was picking out just now, he frowned in confusion and turned around to look behind him.

Shirley noticed it immediately and turned around curiously: “Huh? Nina, what’s wrong with you?”

“I don’t know…” Nina still frowned in confusion and glanced around the crowd behind her. “I suddenly felt something moving behind me just now. It seemed like someone was staring here, but it seemed like…an illusion?”

“Is it an illusion…” Shirley also frowned after hearing Nina’s words, subconsciously at the market. She looked around and said, “There are people everywhere here. Maybe someone glanced this way?”

Although she said this, she still cautiously confirmed with Agou in her heart.

“Nothing,” Agou’s feedback quickly sounded in his heart, “There are just too many people.”

“Agou said nothing,” Shirley said to Nina in a low voice, “There will definitely be no problem with his perception.”

Nina blinked her eyes, looked back, and then shook her head: “…Look It was an illusion.”

There were many people in the market, and the bustling crowd made the originally spacious market seem a bit crowded. Not only locals could be seen around, but also many tourists wearing foreigners’ clothes could be seen strolling in the market. The hawking of various vendors came and went among the crowd. It sounded almost noisy, but it seemed full of vitality.

In a place where people come and go like this, it is nothing to feel one or two glances occasionally.

“Girl, do you still want to buy something?”

The stall owner’s voice came from the other side, interrupting Nina’s distraction.

“Oh, I’m sorry,” Nina reacted immediately, smiled apologetically at the stall owner, and then raised the hairpin and brooch she had just chosen, “Wrap these two for me. Where’s Shirley? Do you like them? “

I…didn’t choose,” Shirley shook her head, “I’ll check out the next one later.”

The stall owner packed up his things, Nina paid the bill, and the two girls who went shopping continued Wandering around in this lively market, it was still very early before sunset, and the sun was still hanging high over the city, so they could play for a long time.

(The mist that filled the surroundings stung the skin and eyes, and the endless roaring and whistling sounds seemed to tear the eardrums. However, fortunately or unfortunately, the broken thinking and chaotic perception weakened it to a certain extent. In this unbearable pain, I forgot my own existence and staggered forward in this chaotic and indescribable world, continuing to think hard.

What is skin? What are eyes? What are eardrums? How do I walk? How did he get here?

Starting from the most basic questions, he began to be confused about everything.

And there were annoying things that constantly interfered with his thinking and memories, and brought him more pain. with confusion.

He tried to raise his head, looking for the source of the annoying disturbance – something hanging high above, a huge… noise.

He was a little confused, because in his superficial and vague consciousness, “noise” should be an invisible thing, but he felt that… what he saw was noise.

A group of chaotic and twisted ripples vibrated and squirmed endlessly at a high place. The ripples covered the entire chaotic sky, stirring up the dark and floating light and shadow, and blended with countless roaring noises on the ground, which was disgusting. , scary.

She took steps forward with difficulty, moving amidst the noise, and carefully avoiding those indescribable shapes with psychedelic hollows on their bodies, constantly making various hissing sounds, moving slowly, and continuing to move… )

Nina stopped again, this time standing in the middle of the road, staring at an empty space with wide eyes.

There was even a faint golden glimmer quietly floating in her eyes.

Shirley immediately stopped and looked at the open space with a confused frown. After a few seconds, she broke the silence with some uncertainty: “I seemed to have felt it just now. There was something watching. He’s looking over here, and he seems to be following him…”

“Does Agou feel it?” Nina asked in a low voice, her nerves tense unconsciously.

“Agou still said that he didn’t feel anything,” Shirley carefully observed the surroundings and replied in a low voice, “but he said that the repeated occurrence of ‘illusions’ is a cause for alarm. Maybe there is something that shouldn’t appear in reality. Things in the world are exerting influence…”

Nina nodded slightly, while using the corner of her eyes to confirm the situation in the market.

Among the pedestrians passing by, she could see the church guards on the roadside.

The “Knowledge Guards” of the Academy of Truth guard this crowded place. They wear academic-style burqas and carry large-caliber revolvers at their waists. They pay attention to the disturbances in the streets and squares with alert and calm eyes – The eyes blessed by Lachem, the god of wisdom, can detect the evil invading reality at the first time.

However, these “knowledge guards” seemed very relaxed and did not seem to notice anything wrong in the market.

“That feeling disappeared…the guards didn’t seem to have any reaction, but I always felt that I was not delusional just now.” Nina whispered to Shirley.

Shirley also responded in a low voice: “What are you going to do?”

“…Would you like to report it to the guards on the roadside?” Nina thought for a while and said, “Uncle said that there are dangers such as heretics. You must report it to the guards as soon as possible.”

Shirley was stunned when she heard this. Her head, which was full of violence and foul language, really didn’t leave much space for the word “report”, and she didn’t think in this direction at all. Pass.

However, recalling Captain Duncan’s several “righteous reports”, another strange feeling came to her mind –

as a violent, vulgar, ignorant and bad boy, she actually followed this man because of her insufficient moral standards. Is the idea of the evil god’s family out of tune?

However, after a brief sense of disobedience, she couldn’t help but shook her head: “How to report it? Just say that we always feel that someone is following us? The guards will think that we are causing trouble…” (In fragmented memory

, What else can be combined and connected in series?

He thought hard. As he staggered forward, he recalled a dark red color, as if thick blood had accumulated. The dark red glow was in his memory. The sky in the sky is floating, as if chasing itself endlessly, chasing its own…companions.

Companions? What are companions?

New memories suddenly appeared in the depths of his consciousness, and he became a little confused. Then, he finally recalled more.

Ah, he has companions. He and his companions set out on a long journey, but what are they going to do?

It seems… to save the world.

Following the guidance of the prophet, they headed to the direction where the red light fell to find a way to save the world. Many of them set out together, but the hunter sister and brother soon fell, and then the gloomy and taciturn magician, and then the Several knights…)

Nina decided to report it to a few guards at the scene first.

Although it may seem troublesome to explain the motivation for reporting, professional matters must be done by professionals after all, and as Uncle Duncan said – anyway, as long as the attitude is sincere, no one will be held accountable if the report fails. If you report it, you might even make a fortune.

She pulled the reluctant Shirley and walked towards the defenders on the roadside.

(Ah, that warm feeling appeared again, not far ahead, even… emitting a hazy light.

She stopped thinking and walked forward subconsciously.

Thick “curtains” gathered around , as if deliberately blocking his footsteps, the buzzing and rumbling noises were also gathering, and the strange shapes that kept hissing were walking around, as if filled with indescribable malice and exuding indescribable terror.

However, she quickened her pace and moved closer to the light, just like…

rushing towards the only thing that was still familiar and understandable in her memory.)

Nina came to the roadside.

The knowledge guard wearing a college robe turned his head and looked curiously at the two girls who suddenly walked over and looked like they were still in middle school.

“You two ladies, do you need help?” The guard smiled and asked gently.

(Hissing and murmuring noises came from the front, and the ball of light seemed to be approaching an indescribable shape, and a strong sense of uneasiness came over my heart.)

“We feel something is wrong…” Nina explained to the guardian, saying He uttered the sentence that he had been thinking about all the way, “Just now…”

(She finally came near the warm light. When there was still some distance, she stretched out her “hand”, wanting to touch the hazy shadow.

In At this moment, all the curtains and fog seemed to turn into invisible borders, and the “actual touch” brought by penetrating the border was the first sting that the lost and forgotten people felt in this new world. Ta

jumped Leap forward.)

A scream suddenly came from behind and echoed throughout the market.
