Strange game designer.

Chapter 455 Tunnel
After coming out of the death realm of the past and future gods, Gao Ming was certain that his memory had been tampered with by fate. He and most of the citizens in this city were "held in captivity" and their future was also predetermined.

But now Gao Ming has a chance to change, and he may become the first person to truly leave the vast sea.

The main roads leading out of the city are wide and clean, as if there are many vehicles going in and out every day. Who would have thought that all this is an illusion.

No one knows where the cars heading out of the city eventually went. Perhaps they never left the vast sea, or perhaps the people driving them were also accomplices.

Sparks exploded, making crackling sounds in the brazier that was converted from the shrine. Under the dancing flames was a thick layer of ash formed by black and white photos, through which a few crying faces could be vaguely seen.

"The black fog has become thicker." Teacher Li looked at the fewer and fewer black-and-white photos in her hand, and she felt despair. There was no signal on her cell phone, and the navigation in the car could not be used. They were clearly driving on the road, but it seemed as if they were trapped in the depths of another world.

"Teacher, I'm a little scared. My grandma is not in good health. She is waiting for me at the station." Fu Ping is the most timid child in the class. She always speaks timidly. She dares not speak in class or communicate with others. Her introversion and shyness are partly due to her family. Fu Ping's parents went out to work a long time ago and never came back. She was raised by her grandma. In order not to cause trouble for her grandma, she has been very sensible since she was a child.

"We will get home safely tonight, we will." Teacher Li hugged Fu Ping, as if only this way could he not stop being afraid.

Returning from an off-campus activity, it was supposed to be an ordinary trip, and no one knew why fate suddenly played such a big joke on them.

"Teacher Gao, the portraits are almost burned. How far are we from the city?" Teacher Li did not dare to show her fear in front of her students. She only hoped that Gao Ming could bring her good news.

"It's almost there, it's almost there!" Gao Ming's will was fighting against the unknown force with all his might. It was an indescribable feeling of oppression, surpassing the gods of the past and future, and was far more terrifying than any of his previous opponents.

He couldn't see the other person, nor did he know where the other person was exactly, but he could sense the other person's presence, which was like mountains stretching across the earth, or like an endless black sea.

His eyes opened, blood streaking through his pupils. As the vehicle approached, Gao Ming could see tall and majestic dark outlines in the black fog. He was not sure whether it was the Hate Mountain in his memory, or a group of sleeping giant ghosts!
It was too horrifying. All previous memories related to this road were torn to pieces. Gao Ming gritted his teeth, blood flowing from his lips. He endured the pressure emanating unconsciously from those terrifying beings, and also had to appease the mad flesh and blood fairy in his heart.

Gao Ming didn't know what happened to the Blood and Flesh Immortal in his lifetime. The Blood and Flesh Ghost God only sensed those ghosts that were like huge mountains, and then began to roar and provoke. If Gao Ming hadn't stopped him, the Blood and Flesh Immortal would probably have rushed out of the torture room directly. This is not just an egg hitting a stone, it's simply an egg shaking a mountain.

"Teacher! Look! The branches on both sides of the road are moving, and the branches seem to be reaching into the car." Weijiu is the smartest student in the class. He spends the least time reading and doing exercises, but his academic performance has never fallen out of the top five. He maintains a strong curiosity about everything.

"Stay away from the window!" Chen Jing shouted at the same time. He held his face close to the window. The next moment, the so-called "branch" hit the glass directly. The "blood arm" with nine slender fingers hit the rear window, which was not illuminated by the "campfire".

Things that looked like huge leaves were brushing against the rear of the car. The students sitting in the last row could see clearly that each leaf was a human face strung together.

The tree-like figure on the roadside was actually moving all the time. It was hidden in the black fog and was over 15 meters tall. "What is that?" Mijiu's fingers were trembling. He had been observing this world. The more he looked, the more insignificant he felt. "Have we fallen into a nightmare? Why are you punishing us like this?"

"It is the citizens of Hanhai who should be asking this question." Gao Ming held the steering wheel with one hand and waved to the back: "All students should sit within the range of the fire. Those things may get on the bus. You must always pay attention to the seats in the back row that are not illuminated by the fire!"

Gao Ming stepped on the accelerator and left the "giant tree" behind. The "mountains" had arrived and he was getting closer and closer to the tunnel.

"I didn't know why these mountains were called Hate Mountains before, and I don't remember any reasonable explanation. Now, each of them seems to be a giant ghost entangled by hatred."

The bus storing the campfire was like a firefly with its wings torn off, falling into the endless black sea. Its brief brightness was out of tune with this world. Although it was extremely tiny, it still made the giant monster in the depths of the "Fog Sea" open its eyes.

The ground was shaking, the broad main road seemed to be shrinking like a long tongue, blood-red cracks appeared on the dark mountains, and pupils emitting thick despair slowly opened.

Compared to the adventure of Jingtuo Shen, Gao Ming was simply hysterical. He didn't even think of leaving a way out for himself.

"The school bus comes from the outside world and is tainted with the breath of real reality. Except for Shentu Que and Chen Jing, the other students should not have the cause and effect of the vast sea. With their help, maybe there is a chance to find the road that should not exist."

"There are only five black-and-white photos left!" Teacher Li quietly reminded. The farther away from Xiao'an Town, the more black-and-white photos will be needed for the flames to burn. In order to prevent the flames from going out, she can only keep throwing photos into the brazier.

With sweat on his forehead due to nervousness, Teacher Li clearly saw the "branches" of the giant tree hitting the car window. If the fire was extinguished and they had not entered the city, all kinds of ghosts in the fog would definitely get on the car and tear them to pieces.

"We're almost there, let's throw all the photos into the fire." Gao Ming said lightly, his heart was beating to a special rhythm. The outline of a tunnel appeared at the end of the road, and the deep darkness was filled with a bone-chilling cold.

After throwing all five portraits into the shrine, the campfire rose upwards. The spreading flames allowed Gao Ming to see farther away. His sight was fixed on the left side of the tunnel entrance.

On the mud ground next to the tunnel, there was a badly damaged electric car.

The car itself was nothing special, and it was different from the electric car that Xuan Wen used to pick him up from the tunnel time and time again, but the car was quietly parked on the side of the tunnel as if it was deliberately meant to remind him.
