I play prophet in Salvation Organization

Chapter 209 Starscream

Regarding the ferryman's request, Bering had actually made his own decision from the very beginning.

The reason why he told her that his choice was difficult was just to let the ferryman stop rushing to tie himself up further.

You know, even though I am temporarily freed from the chains on my body, this is also the handiwork of the ferryman.Bering believed that if she wanted to, she could easily sew back the chains she had loosened.

If this is the case, then Bering will be too headache.

The previous feeling that there was no place in his body that belonged to him was really uncomfortable, not only because he was not used to it, but also because in that situation, Bering had no choice but to be as passive as Zongzi. Wrapped in clothes, only the five senses can work normally.

Therefore, Bering didn't want to anger the ferryman and let her tie him up again.

He believed that woman would definitely be able to do such a thing.

Although she herself said that she had figured it out now, Bering knew very well that she was actually on the verge of collapse.

Just as she told Bering herself, during the long wait and self-doubt, the ferryman's spiritual will was greatly devastated and tortured.And in this case, the goal of "waiting for the arrival of the fourth person" became the only beacon that could support her from further degeneration.

It can be said that she has waited for this time until now.

In essence, this can actually be regarded as a kind of self-restraint, and it has nothing to do with who the target of the "fourth person" is. It's just that the ferryman hopes to use this goal to force himself to stay sane.

But how to put it, considering the situation of the ferryman, it is not difficult for her to have similar thoughts.

We must know that it has been at least several hundred years since the third person, that is, "Hermes" came here.And these hundreds of years are just a "very short process" in the mouth of the ferryman. One can imagine how long she wasted and lonely in this place.

As a living body with self-awareness and thinking, it is already admirable to maintain the lowest level of sanity for such a long time.

It's a pity that what she wants is completely contrary to Bering's own goals.

So Bering would never agree.

'The ferryman attaches so much importance to the oath, I'm afraid there is something tricky in it. '

Lying on the floor, Bering thought: "It's impossible for her to be so naive as to think that a single oath can hold me firmly - even in the real world, a contract is required to make a contract, not to mention that there are almost no other things. People, Tsunaki collapsed Tartarus. '

Although he can try to use the ability to predict the future to observe, but the ghost knows whether this oath will affect from the future to the present after making the oath.

Maybe she can use her special ability to restrain herself who made the vow, no matter whether she is in the future or in the present?
For this kind of strong people who are obviously standing at the top of the ecology, it is better not to consider using your own ideas to speculate on their abilities.

This is the most valuable experience Bering has gained after experiencing the oath-breaker.

So after a moment of silence, Bering said calmly, "Please allow me to think about it."

Hearing Bering's words, the ferryman nodded slightly: "It's all right."

She rubbed Bering's hair: "Anyway, we have plenty of time."

After saying this, she stood up and looked at a vast plain in the distance.

This nominal "lowest end of Tartarus" is not a bottomless pit, but more like a piece of land after the tide has receded.There is also soil here, and the color of the soil is pure red, as if blood has been poured on the soil and seeped into every inch of this continent.

Otherwise, the empty plain is unadorned.

There was no sun in the sky, but there was light shining down, allowing Bering to see his surroundings.The "heavenly abyss" broken by the ferryman before seems to be impossible to observe directly, at least Bering has not found any clues about that place so far.

Absolutely desolate and desolate, this is the initial feeling of this land for Bering.

After confirming that there were no clues in this place, Bering turned his head and looked at the woman standing beside him.

Only at this time did he realize that the ferryman was unexpectedly tall.

Before, because she was sitting and Bering was lying on the ground tied up, it was difficult to see her condition.But when she stood up now, Bai Ling was surprised to find that the woman in front of her was actually over two meters tall, maybe even approaching two meters five.

Normal people are as short as a child in front of this guy.

Silently sighing, Bering said, "Has this place always been like this?"

Listening to his words, the ferryman looked down at him.

"Of course," she said, "always, always."

Looking at the empty sky in the distance, the ferryman said calmly, "I can't remember the time of my birth, but since I came to this place, this land has always been such a rich red color."

"And if you want to make some changes in the world, you can't do it."

There was no sadness or joy in her eyes: "This world is like a circle that goes back and forth. No matter how magnificent a palace you build with the soil here, it will return to its current appearance after a period of time—this is In an immutable world, time seems to have lost its effectiveness in this world, and the law of passage has no effect in this place."

Ok?
Hearing these words, Bering's ears perked up.

Now he is extremely sensitive to the word "time".

Especially when it comes to places that are very close to "Heavenly Abyss".

Therefore, his eyes flickered slightly, and then he said nonchalantly, "You said...time?"

This question was raised with Bering's deliberation.

On the one hand, it is a test, to see if the ferryman has a certain understanding of his abilities; on the other hand, it is looking forward to whether he can get some interesting clues from this guy.

Bering instinctively felt that "time" should not be a secret that the ferrymen could not tell, otherwise she would not take the initiative to bring it up now.

Sure enough, the ferryman quickly gave her a response: "Yes, time."

Rubbing her nose, she sighed softly: "Since you are the one who can come to Tianyuan, then you should understand what 'time' means to us. It is a shackle and a torture tool."

"However, this place is like missing time," she said. "Time in this place will be very strange. Sometimes it may have a very fast flow with the outside world, and sometimes it may be very, very slow. But no matter No matter what, it will return to the 'origin' in the end."

"A minute here may be a second or an hour in the outside world. But no matter what the flow rate of this time is, the world will always return to its original state. However, the outside world will not be affected by such Therefore, I feel that this world is probably abandoned by 'time', or it may be an island specially created to avoid 'time'."

Looking at the sky, the ferryman said softly: "Perhaps my existence is also the result of someone trying to avoid something."

Bering didn't pay attention to her last words.

In fact, he has so many thoughts now that his brain is almost bursting: 'The law of time in this place is strange?Is it completely different from the flow of time in the outside world?What does it mean?You must know that even in the 'Abyss of Heaven', An Jianxiu's shadow has personally mentioned that there is a law of time.It's just that 'time' has disappeared recently, but this does not mean that there is no time passing in Tianyuan. '

'But the world seems to be completely different from other places, and why?Is it because of the specialness of this world, or because of the specialness of the ferryman?If it's the former, then why is there such a weird place in Tartarus, a place where I failed to ascend to the origin; but if it's the latter, then what is the identity of the ferryman, and what effect will she have on me? '

There are more and more riddles.

He took a breath, and then let it out with a long breath.Amidst the heaving chest, Bering rarely had a thought of gratitude: "Fortunately, I didn't try to use the prophecy ability in the first place." '

No matter what the reason for the failure of the law of time in this place is, it will not affect the possibility of some unpredictable results after Bering uses his abilities here.

Whether it is because of the special place or the special ferryman, it may have an impact on Bering's own safety.This is not the key point, the key point is that if Bering's body is completely chained to this place, then he will not be able to receive information from the outside world at all.

That's what matters most.

Because the passage of time is different, this also leads to the time that Bering is struggling and thinking now, and it may be several months or even years outside.

Just like the "Lanke people" or "Peach Blossom Spring" in the legends, Bering didn't want to meet Ding Yan's grandchildren when he went back.

...if they could bear children in that mad world.

'Unfortunately, if the passage of time is really different, then I'm afraid I don't know how long I waited. '

Feeling the sense of restraint coming from his limbs, Bering smiled wryly.

Just when he was about to lie flat and wait until the time came.

Suddenly, the ferryman was slightly taken aback.

Soon, the tall woman stood up again, frowned and said, "Strange..."

"Someone wants to leave Tianyuan?" She said, "It's been a long, long time since I have encountered such a thing. It's really strange."

"This has never happened before, but my intuition tells me that I must do it..." she murmured.

Between the words, he left Bering's side and walked into the yellow sand all the way.

After walking a few steps, she turned back to Bering as if she had realized something.

Patting Bering's clothes, she rubbed Bering's head like a child: "Because I haven't met anyone for a long time, I almost forgot about you. Because this world will go back, and then Plus there's no one else here, so I don't have to worry too much about your safety."

"But relatively, I'm more afraid that your spirit will fluctuate," she said with a little sadness, "after all, it's hard for me to solve the mental problem, and this place is so bad..."

She probably really thought so.

It can only be said that because of her own mental problems, the ferryman instinctively feared that Bering would become like her.

A little bit of meaning that I don't want to repeat the same mistakes.

So she hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand and groped from the depths of her cuff.

Soon, a small sphere was pulled out from the pocket inside the sleeve.

Looking at this small ball, Bering instinctively wanted to step back.

The reason is simple, this little ball looks very... weird.

It's like being rolled in the mud for several times and then fried several times with bread crumbs. The ball has a special salty smell on it, which makes people's stomach churn after smelling it.

What the ferryman said afterwards proved this point even more.

She grabbed the small ball and stuffed him into Bering's arms: "This is the body of the second person. I will bring it back from the abyss later, and rub the remaining half of it together to form this ball." .”

"Whenever I have free time, I play with this ball," she said sincerely. "If you are bored, you can do the same."

Who would do that? !
Looking at this dirt-like ball, Bering felt that he still underestimated the madness of this guy in front of him.

He even rubbed other people's corpses like balls, maybe even for tens of thousands of years...

What kind of weird fetish is this? !
After being stuffed with such a small gadget, Bering felt that his hands might have to be washed well after returning home.

And over there, after the ferryman gave this thing to Bering, no matter how reluctant he was, he finally had to leave.

"Intercepting those who want to come to the real world from Tianyuan is also part of my mission," she said, "Although this is the first time, my instinct still tells me to take action immediately. I don't know this time How long will you leave, after all, the time here may not be effective in Tianyuan, but I won't let you wait too long."

After saying this.

She removed a black weapon from her back.

Bering, who was lying on the ground, looked carefully. What the ferryman was holding in his hand was clearly a wide and long black sickle!

Such a scythe is somewhat similar to the "black sickle" guy in Western Europe, but its weirdness is far better than that guy in Western Europe. Only the shape is probably similar to it, just like one is a grandson and the other is an old old ancestor.

Wielding this scythe, the ferryman easily broke through the space in front of him.

Really "break open".

The sickle is like a paper cutter, directly cutting open the seemingly normal space of Bering, so simple that one wonders how much technical content there is in it.

After opening this space, the ferryman didn't have any words left, but stepped directly into the distorted space.

After watching that guy leave in front of him, Bering gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

He could finally let go of his fists and tentatively try to use his abilities.

Even if the abnormality is that this world lacks the shackles of the ferryman for the time being, even if there is any problem, Bering is not completely unable to deal with it.

It can only be said that when the ferryman is by his side, he is likely to become a one-vs-two situation...

Sighing imperceptibly, Bering's consciousness gradually sank, sinking all the way into the vast ocean.

When he tiptoed on the rolling white foam, Bering had to admit that after seeing the scene before him, his mood was indeed relaxed a little.

Just like what I said to the oath-breaker before, existences like "prophets" do rely too much on predictive abilities to some extent...

Feeling the sense of restraint that still existed in himself, he frowned slightly: "Can't you break free even in the sea of ​​consciousness?"

What is the origin of this chain?

The form is somewhat similar to those white foam chains in the sea of ​​consciousness, but the feeling is slightly different.At least when the white foam chains wrapped around him, Bering didn't have the feeling that even his limbs didn't belong to him.

Moreover, Bering remembered that in the future presented to him by the oath-breaker, when the past Bering shot his own head, a similar white chain seemed to protrude from his brain...

It seems that I am more complicated than I originally imagined.

With a self-deprecating smile, Bering regained his concentration and dived into the gray-black sea.

After a long time, he finally started to observe the future.

However, upon seeing this, Bering's eyes couldn't help but become strange.

"It came so fast?"

After staring at the vast ocean like a mirror, Bering thought so.

With this in mind, Bering resurfaced on the surface of the sea.

He didn't dare to look too far, he just needed to know the specific situation.

Back in the real world, Bering, who was lying flat on the ground, adjusted his facial expression.

After a burst of extremely rapid facial twitches, Bering's distorted face due to the pain finally returned to the previous state of calm and calm.

well.

Nodding in satisfaction, Bering moved to the side twice, using his remaining strength to stand up instead of lying on his back on the scarlet picture of you.

After all this was done, he still looked refreshed.

And it just so happened that beside him, in the originally empty world.

A figure suddenly jumped in from the outside, as if sitting on a seesaw, and slid in front of Bering with a "snap".

Maybe it was because he didn't control the strength well when he came here, if Bering hadn't changed his position in advance, or he would have collided with that guy now.

However, because of Bering's far-sightedness, the figure that suddenly entered right now did not hit Bering's body, but fell in front of him.

In addition, the opponent was defenseless when he fell, and the movement of touching the ground was a bit embarrassing, so that the guy looked like he was bowing down to him right now.

Bering accepted the other party's kneeling impartially.

"The timing is just right, it happens to be the time when the gatekeeper left this vain land," he said lightly, "It seems that you are still punctual as always, which is a commendable virtue."

"Starscream."

He said, smiling at the guy opposite.
