"Ah! You bunch of beasts!" Yang Dongqing, who was overwhelmed, had bloodshot eyes. He looked at the villagers who were biting his body all over. He opened his mouth without hesitation, and his metallic teeth bit into the throat of a villager.
At this critical moment of life and death, Su Mu was finally about to succeed.
"Big brother, the pointer is pointing to twelve. Where are mom and dad?" Tingting's eyes were empty and lifeless, and it was obvious that she had completely entered a hypnotic state.
Su Mu put away his pocket watch and slowly stood up. Behind him were countless broken limbs and debris, a broken earth, and a shattered sky.
He smiled gently, stretched out his hand in this doomsday scene, and rubbed Tingting's little head: "Tingting, close your eyes and listen carefully, your parents are calling you."
Tingting closed her eyes obediently.
"Tingting..."
"Mom and Dad are here to pick you up..."
A doting male voice and a gentle female voice sounded one after another, followed by the grandmother's old voice.
"Tingting, you must be hungry. Come home with us and let grandma make dumplings for you."
"Sister, come and play with me."
Several voices rushed into Tingting's ears, and her small body trembled slightly. Even with her eyes closed, she could not hide the crystal tears.
"Tingting, open your eyes quickly, they are here to take you home." Su Mu's gentle voice sounded.
Tingting opened her eyes, and her little body trembled as she turned around.
In that void, Dad, Mom, Grandma, and Sister were all standing there quietly, with gentle and doting smiles on their faces, waving to Tingting.
"Mom and Dad... Grandma... Sister..." Tingting was already sobbing: "Tingting misses you so much!!"
This little person threw himself into the arms of his family without hesitation.
At this moment, Tingting was happy because she finally found her family.
Su Mu stood quietly where he was. In his sight, he only saw Tingting crying alone. In fact, even the voice just now was imitated by him using the ventriloquism he learned from his dream.
He didn't know whether he succeeded or failed. He did succeed in hypnotizing Tingting, but the nightmare seemed to never turn into a sweet dream.
"Tingting, go home with your mom and dad." The strange man and woman stroked Tingting's hair lovingly.
Tingting nodded vigorously, and a smile appeared on her innocent face again, like a flower blooming for the first time in spring, pure and gorgeous.
She followed her family, step by step, towards nothingness. Slowly, her small body began to become blurred and unreal, as if it was also about to merge into nothingness.
But at this moment, Tingting suddenly stopped.
"Mom, Dad, grandma, and sister, please wait for Tingting for a moment." After saying that, the little person turned around and ran back. She ran straight to Su Mu and smiled sweetly.
"Thank you, big brother. Thank you for helping me find them."
"You're welcome, Tingting. Go home quickly." Su Mu smiled gently.
"Yeah!" Tingting nodded vigorously, then a bit of hesitation appeared on her face. She moved closer to Su Mu and whispered, "Big brother, let me tell you a secret. Actually, Tingting lied before. Tingting secretly hid a dumpling."
As she spoke, she stretched out her dirty little hand and took out a wrinkled, rotten dumpling from her pocket.
"Tingting knew that big brother didn't eat either, so she wanted to save this dumpling for big brother..." Tingting's voice became smaller and smaller, like a child who felt guilty about doing something wrong.
"Big brother, is Tingting a bad kid who lies?"
Su Mu took the dumplings, bent down, and gently wiped away the tears on Tingting's face. He spoke slowly, his tone gentle but firm, as if he was reiterating some fact.
"Tingting is the best child in the world."
"Really?" Tingting tilted her head back, her big eyes sparkling with surprise.
Su Mu smiled gently and touched Tingting's little head: "Of course it's true, because big brother... never lies."
"That's great! Tingting is the best child in the world!"
"Go home and don't keep mom and dad waiting anxiously."
"Well, bye, big brother!"
"Goodbye, Tingting."
Tingting left. Su Mu watched her walking farther and farther away. Her figure became more and more illusory. But even so, Tingting was still waving her hands vigorously, with a happy smile on her face as she was about to disappear.
Suddenly, Su Mu seemed to see a few blurry shadows around Tingting, and they looked exactly like the ones in the family photo...
boom!
The world completely collapsed, and everything was swallowed by darkness...
......
......
The Viper Gang headquarters.
Su Mu opened his eyes, looked around, and found himself still lying on the soft bed, as if everything before was just a dream.
But there is indeed a smell of blood in the nose.
"Ah!" Yang Dongqing suddenly roared and jumped up from the ground. After he saw the surrounding environment clearly, a look of confusion flashed across his eyes: "You're back!?"
"Chief! Are you okay?" Zhao Chaoyao, covered in blood, limped to the bed.
Su Mu slowly stood up and looked around, and found that only Yang Dongqing and Zhao Chaoyao were left in the room.
At this time, a man in a white coat came running over in panic.
"Chief, you are finally back. You have been gone for three whole days."
"Bring the previous video." Su Mu ordered.
The man in the white coat quickly brought the video over. Su Mu looked at it carefully and saw the scene after everyone fell asleep. About two minutes after falling asleep, everyone seemed to be wiped out by something and disappeared out of thin air. This also shows that the Nightmare Apostle entered the nightmare world not with his soul, but with his body.
In fact, Su Mu had known this for a long time. If it was really the soul that entered, he would never be so weak. With the strength of his soul, he was definitely the strongest among everyone.
"Okay, let's all go down."
"Su Mu you..." the seriously injured Yang Dongqing said hesitantly.
"I said, everyone go away." Su Mu drove everyone away, lay on the bed alone, and looked at the ceiling calmly.
Yes, he is dying.
"Have I failed after all?" he murmured to himself. There was no fear of death in his eyes, only endless emptiness and boredom.
He originally thought that entering the nightmare world would allow him to become a superhuman, but he did not expect that fate would play such a trick on him. Even if he successfully solved the nightmare, he still had no hope of becoming a superhuman.
His body had reached its limit, and he was extremely certain that if he slept any longer, his body would burst due to the overflowing mental energy when he woke up.
