Chapter 212 "Cloud Flame" Update failed, withdraw - (try again tomorrow...
"This is too much. A group of adults who are almost 30 years old are actually bullying a poor child who is only three months old in the setting..."
Chu Xiuyan muttered to himself, and drew three little people on the beach with his fingertips. Then, he clenched his fists and smashed them one by one. Three sand pits suddenly appeared in the sand in front of him.
The booklet was placed next to her cross-legged body, and she turned the pages gently as her eyes moved.
A thunderous roar could still be heard from the sky above the floating island, and the blazing flames and violent hurricanes continued to show their presence.
The two fire dragons were fighting. Looking from a distance, one could almost feel the shocking sense of oppression.
But in Chu Xiuyan's eyes, the scene in front of him was like a movie scene, the kind that could be modified at any time.
As soon as he thought about it, the two fire dragons that were fighting fiercely seemed to lose their desire to fight and flapped their wings to fly in two different directions.
When building the floating island, Chu Xiuyan specially set the underlying logic of "two fire dragons fighting in the sky" in order to add a magical element. Therefore, if he did not change his mind, the two fire dragons would keep fighting, and there would be no development beyond his imagination.
However, the series of events that happened half an hour ago were beyond his imagination.
It is an unexpected development, an event that cannot be determined.
There is no doubt that the sense of reality...
"Self-deception, immersion in false comfort, or facing the unknown truth - think carefully, my current situation seems to be not much different from the choices faced by those three students, or the entire Dream Country."
...Is it a coincidence?
Chu Xiuyan murmured uncertainly, the small booklet beside his legs was blown up by the wind, and dense black words appeared in front of him among the pages that turned one by one, and a series of unfamiliar but very familiar simplified characters came into view.
In the midst of the indistinctness, the sizzling sound echoing in my mind became clearer and clearer.
Chu Xiuyan felt like a stupid robot that had gone awry and was about to be scrapped.
At this moment, a blurry door suddenly appeared behind him, and a girl in a fluffy white dress walked out - [Ocean].
Compared to his first time of irritability and hostility, Chu Xiuyan was surprisingly calm this time even himself.
Or rather, that out-of-control emotion has unknowingly returned to calm.
But, don't want to speak actively.
He stared straight at the [Ocean] that was a few meters away, trying to convey his attitude of not welcoming the other party.
But obviously, [Ocean] still ignored his resistance and looked at him for a few seconds before gently saying, "Yunyan, what do you think of this place?"
Chu Xiuyan was silent: Stare——
[Ocean]: "Full of fantasy? Style of dream, I am still a child after all."
Chu Xiuyan said viciously: Stare—
[Ocean] continued: "In six hours, I will hold a special banquet in the depths of my dream. Do you want to attend?"
Chu Xiuyan frowned and continued to stare—
[Ocean] It seems like he is talking to himself and revealing various things? NPC who reported: "It seems that you have noticed that I am about to host a banquet for the gods and give them a grand dream."
Chu Xiuyan's eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but break the silence, "I'm not a god."
[Ocean] Not caring: "Reality will not change according to your will."
Chu Xiuyan: "This is a dream, everything has changed because of me."
[Ocean] suddenly smiled, and stared at Chu Xiuyan quietly for a moment. Seeing that the other party was in a natural attitude, as if he had no idea what he had said, he said, "You are right, Yunyan."
He passed over the subject and went back to that special banquet.
"Six hours later, all the gods who will attend the banquet are extremely dangerous. As I said a long time ago, most gods in the world are evil, and they are not friendly even to their own kind. Yunyan, I don't recommend you to attend the next banquet, but it's up to you to decide whether to go. I will leave a passage on this floating island, and the coordinates of the banquet are at the end."
——'Whether to go or not is up to you.'
Very familiar words.
Chu Xiuyan frowned halfway through and asked faintly, "Are you monitoring here?"
“It’s observation.”
Before [Ocean] finished speaking, a sharp sound of wind was heard, and more than a dozen sharp blood-red blades appeared out of thin air and attacked [Ocean] in the center, but they stabbed nothing.
"Why is it a bloody blade?"
There is no ups and downs in [Ocean]'s tone.
Chu Xiuyan: “I’m used to it.”
He paused, then suddenly smiled and said, "Is there something wrong with the bloody blade? You look unhappy."
His face was full of the expression "I'm happy if you're unhappy."
"…Although it is the key to unlock power, if you indulge in it, you will be the one being devoured."
A hint of doubt appeared on Chu Xiuyan's face.
[Ocean] Without explanation, after reminding him of the dangers of the God's Feast again?, he turned around? stepped into the passage and disappeared.
At the place where He left, a blurry "door" was left behind. There was a colorful black light flashing inside the "door", which looked very much like vomit... Never mind, it looked like all kinds of colors mixed together into a ball.
The smile on Chu Xiuyan's face disappeared.
Half a minute later? , he turned around? Jumped off the floating island, and landed directly on the island below.
The beach near the sea was dead silent. A tense confrontation had just taken place half an hour ago, and the atmosphere at this moment was particularly strange.
From the Dream? The three students who were kidnapped by the country were squatting together on the coast, mumbling something.
A few dozen meters away, Cui Zhiyong squatted on the beach and drew circles in silence, then? I don’t know what he was thinking about, and he wiped the circles away in frustration? .
Chu Li was sitting on a reef about ten meters away. He was looking at the sea with a calm expression. The waves hit the reef and the splashes almost soaked his clothes.
A few dozen meters behind the beach, Wan Mingxu was resting with his eyes closed against a tree, with a breeze blowing past him, feeling peaceful and comfortable.
On such a large beach, there was no sign of communication between the three people.
Although they were from the same camp, the atmosphere between them was extremely subtle and strange.
Chu Xiuyan thought to himself? I wasn't angry... well, a little, but after being autistic for a while? I almost forgave them, but these three people became awkward.
He walked on the soft sand, making almost no sound.
Chu Li is looking at the sea.
Cui Zhiyong is drawing circles in isolation.
Wan Mingxu was pretending to be asleep.
Chu Xiuyan was walking towards the direction of the three kidnapped students from the Dreamland?
"First of all, all sights that do not belong to this space are invalid and cannot be monitored."
He wasn't sure if it would work, but he had to give it a try.
"Secondly, in six hours, Poseidon will host a very important banquet. He probably won't have the extra energy to monitor what's happening in the Kingdom of Dreams."
The three students squatting in a circle on the beach suddenly opened their eyes wide.
Chu Xiuyan looked at Harris, who seemed to be thinking of something, and said meaningfully: "So, obviously, it is a very good time to do something."
Ivan, the conservative of the trio, asked with caution: "Timing? What are you talking about?"
Mengya's eyes rolled around, revealing a hint of excitement.
Harris asked Chu Xiuyan: "Are we friends?"
The moment Ivan and Mengya heard this, all the thoughts that had come to their minds disappeared. They looked at Harris in disbelief and said in what they thought was a low voice: "Harris, what are you talking about?"
"Do you have a fever? Are you scared? Why are you suddenly asking a guy who kidnapped us for unknown reasons whether we are friends or not?"
Harris disregarded his own life? He ignored the words of his friend and looked at Chu Xiuyan stubbornly.
“…I’m not sure.”
Chu Xiuyan tutted his tongue, as if answering Harris' question or analyzing his own thoughts, and said, "To be honest, my mind is still in a mess. I don't know who to trust, and I don't know what choice to make - or, doing nothing is also a choice. But I suddenly remembered a sentence before. I don't remember who said it, but the meaning is still clear..."
"[When you can't make a choice, trust your instincts and your heart - what makes it beat fast is what you want]."
"so……"
Harris suddenly smiled and said, "Then I have completed the task assigned to me by Lord Poseidon. New friend, my name is Harris."
Chu Xiuyan paused, "Yunyan..."
His voice was very light, "My name is Yunyan, a new friend."
He watched Harris turn his head excitedly and say something to his companion.
Cui Zhiyong, who was playing with sand in seclusion, Chu Li, who was watching the sea quietly, and Wan Mingxu, who was leaning against a tree in silence, all turned their heads to look at the black-haired boy who had his back to them, as if they had noticed something.
A sentence that was not loud but full of familiar style reached their ears.
"Finally? I plan to attend that special banquet hosted by Poseidon."
Chu Li: “…”
Wan Mingxu: “…”
Cui Zhiyong went crazy: "... Say it again? Wan Mingxu! This is what you did——!"
This time it was Wan Mingxu's turn to be autistic: "...Snail, hand it over? "
Quiet and peaceful, with seagulls singing in the sky.
…
Land, east of the ruined city, where the forest and the ocean meet.
"boom--!"
There were high mountains rising from the ground, rubble falling, and in the thick smoke that almost covered the sky, helicopters with a flashing black luster flew through the smoke.
The researchers wearing headsets held their breath and controlled the drone to reach the calculated coordinates, and then? They accurately released the polygonal barrier fragments that could float in the air and automatically assemble.
"The dust is too heavy, we can't see clearly at all!" one of the researchers said in frustration.
Listening to the sound coming through the channel, Zai Zhe, who was also on the helicopter, turned his head to look at the collapsed researcher and made a serious suggestion: "I happen to have a few ropes here, how about you go down and take a look?"
The researcher smiled, but was reluctant to accept.
Zai Zhe was really ready to make a move, and after persuading them several times but being rejected, he regretfully withdrew his idea of hanging everyone.
After a while, he suddenly realized that the movement below seemed to have not occurred for some time.
There were endless mountains, thick dust that almost covered the sky, and a honeycomb-like mesh barrier left in the sky as the helicopter moved.
The first line of defense and the second line of defense are carried out simultaneously?
According to the conclusion of the meeting, the first line of defense to block the tsunami is the continuous high mountains, and the main force among them is Zhang Chun, who is good at using mountains to surround villages.
The second line of defense is a special protective shield developed by scientific researchers.
After half a day's effort, they had surrounded more than half of the eastern part close to the ocean, and then they had to go south.
The east and south sides are adjacent to the sea, which is considered a relatively dangerous area.
To the north of the ruined city is an even more majestic group of snow-capped mountains. Under the influence of a mysterious force, the temperature in the mountains is extremely low, and everything is covered in ice and snow, withered. I'm afraid that the tsunami will be frozen the moment it approaches before it can be stopped by the mountains.
To the west of the ruined city is a vast expanse of yellow sand. In a remote meeting some time ago, the Desert Fortress and the resistance army were very happy to tell them—
[Giant! We have giants! And there are three generations? Desert God! Three generations? Hey!]
Everyone in the ruined city: ...
Everyone in the ruined city looked at Zhang Chun: Why not just use the mountains? Let's surround the desert too.
At that time, Zai Zhe looked at Zhang Chun's complicated expression and laughed all day.
He collected his thoughts, pressed the headset again, and sent a message to Zhang Chun, who was a thousand meters below? Asking.
After several minutes, there was a sound from the other side.
"It's okay, I'll just take a break."
Zhang Chun pinched his nose. The soreness and swelling became more and more obvious. He had to tilt his head back and take out a tissue from his pocket and crumple it into a ball to stop the nosebleed.
The dust behind him gradually dissipated, and a huge mountain nearly a thousand meters high stood there silently.
Zhang Chun estimated the distance, glanced at the sky, and estimated the time. Then he told Zai Zhe to take a five-minute break.
He found a stone nearby to sit down, raised his hand to cover his dizzy head, closed his eyes and took a short nap. The sound transmission snail hanging on his collar was as quiet as a portable pendant.
Five minutes later? , another mountain rises from the ground.
The terrain east of the forest is changing rapidly.
Towards dusk, the first tsunami struck.
The affected area was not large, the intensity was very low, and the duration was very short. Even the trees on the seashore were not damaged. It was like a relatively violent high tide.
But Zhang Chun did not feel lucky. His heart was getting heavier. He came to Huangshi Village and chatted with the villagers who were planning to move to the A3 base. At the moment when night fell, he came to the woods in front of the village.
The dark woods were not quiet, but the rustling of leaves by the wind, the occasional chirping of crickets, and the chirping of birds seemed particularly peaceful and natural.
Zhang Chun stood outside the woods, observing quietly for a moment, and then stepped into the woods that blended into the night.
