Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 243 The Burned Past (22): After the collapse

The maniacal laughter stopped abruptly.

Girls know what he's talking about.

The saddest thing for her is that not only can she understand what Chen Yan said, but she also knows that what Chen Yan said is right.

It is the [Supreme Rule] formed by the blood and tears of countless people, and it is the underlying law of the operation of the carbon-based life society.

And if she ignores this rule, she will definitely be unable to achieve her goal as he said.

The floating dots of pixels on her face trembled, and there were small icy blue floating dots oozing from the original position of the eyes, which were her tears.

"I just want to go home...I...beep—I...I have—what did I do wrong..."

Her voice distorted into a patchwork of staccatos, the pitch of each word falling back to the same stiff syllable.

She leaned on Chen Yan, her body was shaking like a machine, and the range and frequency of each shaking were fixed.

She wanted to know what was wrong with her, but Chen Yan was already unable to answer her question.

The memories in the world memory fragments were thought up by Chen Yan in advance, so she could hear them.

And Chen Yan's consciousness itself has already fallen into shock due to the great pain.

[Another kind of corruption] continued to happen to the girl, the dense 8-bit floating-point pixel blocks gradually spread from the face to the neck, and from the neck to the whole body, like a bad plague, crawling all over her after a while whole body.

She hugged Chen Yan tightly, the thoughts in her head were completely confused.

"Kill...kill...have memories in my mind."

Her voice was no longer coherent.

"As long as you kill... you can... go back home."

When she said these words, a piece of red world memory fragments in her head flickered.

'But if you insist on your own way, I will deny your existence. '

Chen Yan's voice was decisive.

'Anyone is eligible to be saved, but there are still many people who are beyond redemption. '

'My sister doesn't kill people at will—in my memory, I have never taken killing for granted as a sister! '

She understood what he said.

She raised her [face] and cried heartbreakingly.

Countless pixel blocks seemed to have a riot on her body, countless [conflicts] were born, and some flickering dark red pixel blocks formed [error], [error], [Fehler], [ralat] 】……

Wait for all the symbols that represent the occurrence of [error].

Her voice is more mechanical, and the mouth made of pixels can no longer spit out human words normally, but there are intermittent mechanical sounds.

"I want...to go with Calvary...to go home...to my family...to mouth pig..."

She seems to have lost the ability to think normally.

As more and more symbols representing "mistakes" appeared, she hugged Chen Yan with greater strength, and a morbid smile recognizable to the naked eye appeared on the face made of pixels.

"Everyone..."

She lost her normal voice and lost her vision.

She collapsed limply on Chen Yan's chest, her arms had [melted] into his back.

"Let's... ① together..."

The pixel blocks on her body began to collapse, which was a collapse that would only begin after a certain level of corruption had accumulated.

Even so, she still uttered the last two words with that piercing mechanical voice.

"go home."

She started a slow [melting].

The pixel blocks transformed from the body [melted] into Chen Yan's body without hindrance, as if Chen Yan's body was no different from these pixel blocks.

After a while, the girl completely disappeared under the swaying yellow light of the umbrella-shaped overhead light.

She just [disappeared] in Chen Yan's body.

Wish clearly saw that the injury on Chen Yan's neck and spine had been healed.

'It's... weird...'

Wish watched all this happen, watched the surrounding environment gradually darken-this memory is coming to an end.

'That's not right...why is my sister so [infused] in Chen Yan's body?

I saw clearly before that before the ferry was about to sail into the port of the Empire, William Master had already captured his younger sister—a younger sister whose strength was much weaker. '

'There must be more going on...'

The already completely dark horizon is gradually becoming brighter.

……

The next moment, the cabin with the afternoon sun shining in appeared in front of Wishing's eyes.

Chen Yan was wearing a light blue shirt and a pair of formal school pants, standing at the porthole of the cabin, looking out at the endless sea in the distance through the narrow glass.

The messy single bed was covered with a quilt that had never been folded. The quilt was not clean when Chen Yan got on the ship. Fortunately, Chen Yan's living habits were not bad, so the quilt would not be made more dirty.

Next to the single bed, where the sunlight from the porthole at three o'clock in the afternoon can be covered, a few pairs of burnt socks are hung on a hanger made of wire—there are no women's socks in the socks.

On the small table under the porthole, there is a lunch box that has been washed with clean water and wiped with the newspaper of the day—there is only a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the lunch box.

There seemed to be no trace of my sister's "existence" in the cabin.

And Chen Yan looked very familiar with everything around him, and did not show loss or other emotions because of "the absence of his sister".

Wishing to see Chen Yan who was studying hard with his face on the imperial language book, feeling a little confused.

'what happened?My sister brainwashed Chen Yan?So Chen Yan doesn't remember the existence of his sister? '

It was lunch time at this time, Chen Yan was dizzy from reading a book, glanced at his watch, then stood up, ready to go to the restaurant to buy food.

Opening the hatch, a beautiful girl in a light blue dress was waiting for him outside the hatch.

"Brother, let's eat together!"

Wish stared blankly at the girl's face, and the strangeness in his heart increased.

'She was the sister who was later taken by William Master! '

The appearance of the girl in front of her is very different from that of "the younger sister". From the appearance of her face alone, it is impossible to be sure that she is the same person.

'How...how did she appear beside Chen Yan? '

This is the first time Wish has looked at the girl so carefully.

'She's not normal...she...'

In the eyes of Wish, the girl in front of her is not made of carbon. Although she has a human body, that body is not flesh and blood, nor is it a machine, nor is it an inorganic substance——

She seems to be made of [immaterial].

'What is she now?
【Memory】?
[Thinking Body] visualized from a certain memory?
【Psychic Ghost】? '

Wish can't tell.

'No matter what she is... she no longer has that [ice-blue flame] in her body.

According to what she showed before, 【Ice Blue Flame】represents knowledge, ability and strength.

This means that her ability is not as good as before.

No wonder it was later succeeded by William Master... Let me just say, that ice-blue flame can even compete with the colorless material fire. With that thing for protection, it is definitely not William Master It can be cooked. '

While wishing to think, he suddenly saw the girl looking towards her.

She saw her, and then a hint of "unbelievable" appeared in her eyes.

A sense of horror rushed to his forehead, and in the astonishment of wishing, there was only one thought in his head.

'She can see me!

What is she now... exactly? ! '
