Fu Tianhe knew very clearly that he was dreaming.
He had never seen a sun so big before; it seemed as if a distant star was expanding and would explode in the near future.
Everything was dyed bright red. The floating clouds were burning, emitting scorching heat, making the vaporous seaside as stuffy as a steamer.
He was sitting on the last step of the stairs, his feet hanging naturally. Two meters away from his feet was the sea water that kept hitting the outer wall of the building. The white waves would occasionally touch the soles of his shoes.
Was this a place he and Jiu Yue had been to before? Fu Tianhe recalled carefully, and it seemed not to be the case. This was not a place he was familiar with.
He turned his head to look beside him, and was surprised to find that there was someone sitting there. Her figure looked so petite, completely different from what he remembered.
Perhaps it's because he has grown up and no longer has the perspective of a six-year-old child.
She sat quietly, gazing into the distance at the boundless ocean, the sparkling waves reflected in her gentle eyes.
But no matter how hard Fu Tianhe tried, he couldn't see her face clearly.
He had never hated the blurriness of his dreams as much as he did now.
Fu Tianhe tried hard to recall, but was horrified to find that he could hardly remember what his mother looked like.
At that time, they were almost on the run, living in a shed left by homeless people, and they didn't bring much luggage with them. Later, medical staff came to seal off the place and disposed of all the mother's belongings to prevent Ashes from leaking them.
Fu Tianhe was too young at that time and didn't think about keeping a photo or anything.
Afterwards, he was taken back to the Yu family by Yu Yongyi and raised as a tool. With Qiao Lina around, Yu Yongyi certainly could not provide him with anything related to his mother.
He clearly remembered the pain he felt at that time, but he had forgotten what his mother looked like.
But even though he couldn't see her face clearly, Fu Tianhe was very sure that it was her.
Neither of them spoke, they just sat side by side, gazing at the flaming red sun and ocean in the sky. The whole world seemed like it was about to catch fire.
After the carnival of life, there is the silence of death, like the back of the moon, desolate and dark.
"I lost the eyes you gave me to save the person most important to me."
Fu Tianhe said softly: "I met him by chance in an alley. I couldn't take my eyes off him the first time I saw him. I went to many places with him and experienced many strange and almost impossible things."
"I have always felt that the most responsible attitude for my physical condition is to remain alone. I can leave in a way that does not make anyone miss me and will not leave many regrets."
“But now, I am unwilling to give up.”
"We have only known each other for more than half a year. There are still many places we haven't visited and many dreams we haven't achieved. I am only 22 years old, which should be the best age for me. Why should I die now?"
Fu Tianhe raised his hand and touched his right eye. It felt empty inside. There was neither the artificial eye given to him by his mother nor the artificial eye made by Chen Ci himself.
As long as he can survive, he is willing to pay any price.
Even if I become someone like Eric.
He is so selfish that he would rather stay with September in the form of a monster.
The purple powder floated on the sea surface at some point, was swept up by the waves and stained his feet.
Fu Tianhe knew without thinking that they would quickly spread along his body, eventually occupying his brain and submerging him completely.
“I don’t want it to end here.”
The sun seemed to have grown even bigger, becoming an extremely terrifying existence, as if the entire world was about to be swallowed up and melted into gas.
"You'll support me, won't you?"
Fu Tianhe finally looked to his side and saw that the figure was melting. She was baked by the scorching sun, flowing like toffee, and was finally swept away by the purple waves.
Nothing is left.
There were constant bumps and jumps on the surface of the sun, which might be called solar prominences in astronomy, but Fu Tianhe knew that they were the raging flames in the incinerator that had been burning for three full days.
Fu Tianhe stood up, he kept backing away, and finally turned around and ran wildly towards the blurry front, trying desperately to escape the scorching heat coming from behind him.
Escape to the end of the world.
Bumpy.
The sound of rapid panting continued to reach his ears, and his body was shaking up and down with the quick steps. Fu Tianhe tried his best to raise his eyelids and found that he was indeed running wildly.
Being carried by Shaflay and running wildly.
The entire team moved forward at a very fast speed, surrounded by completely unfamiliar scenery.
Fu Tianhe didn’t know how long he had been unconscious, but they had already found Heibo and Kong Yu’s laboratory.
Fu Tianhe did not say anything, but focused on sensing the condition of his body. His body was still painful and itchy, and he could feel that his life was slipping away.
The scorching temperature he felt in his dream was probably due to a disorder in his body's thermostat, causing him to lose his accurate perception of the temperature.
The sweet and fishy taste of blood in his mouth had not completely dissipated yet. Fu Tianhe estimated that he should be able to hold on for a while longer. He tried his best to maintain a steady breathing, lying on Shafulai's back without moving, trying to reduce the consumption of life activities as much as possible.
Chen Ci was running, and the special compass in his hand was spinning in all directions in a disorderly manner, and as he moved forward, the speed of the rotation was getting faster and faster.
After Shaflay turned off Moonlight's neural adapter, the energy fluctuations that should have disappeared actually still existed faintly, indicating that there was at least another source.
After detection, they decided to trace the direction of the energy, which almost exactly matched the wavelength of the neural adapter, and must be related to it.
Go deeper and deeper.
The surrounding buildings gradually become complete, indicating that this is a core hidden area.
Suddenly, Chen Ci's running steps stopped.
His mental power detected an irregular existence a few hundred meters ahead.
"Be alert!"
Following Chen Ci's reminder, the team members raised their guns one after another and continued to move forward in a vigilant posture, at a relatively slower pace.
It was a gap that was forcibly cleared.
The hard metal twisted and deformed, as if a pair of huge hands were angrily breaking and tearing it into pieces.
But who on earth can possess such tremendous power?
Chen Ci was the first to go in, protected by two team members.
Without the interference of the original stone, the mental power could finally spread smoothly, exploring the entire area in an instant.
This is a cavity about ten hectares in size.
The staggering space is so vast that even the most powerful searchlight cannot reach its end.
On their sides lay a body stretching out like a mountain range.
It is at least twenty meters wide, and like a mountain of flesh, it twists and turns, extending from one invisible end to the other.
The metal forms scales on its surface, tightly protecting the organism.
Each scale is so thick that even a torpedo might not be able to penetrate it.
The mental force explored along its body, extending from the breach in the cavity wall to the outside. It was unknown how long it meandered in other places before finally drilling in from another place.
The tail is held in the mouth, forming an irregular circle.
There is no doubt that this is a sea king.
Chen Nian took a breath of cold air, and the huge black shadow that surrounded the house in the strange dream came down. He said the name of this terrifying creature very clearly.
"Jemogad."
Chen Ci adjusted the anti-slip device of his gloves and began to climb up along Jemengader's body. He climbed to the highest point and then slid to the other side.
Arrived at the surrounded area.
"There's a power switch here." The special forces member reported on the channel.
Thump, thump, thump——
Accompanied by a dozen or so dull sounds in succession, rows of lights were turned on in unison, and the darkness was driven from the left to the right, and finally completely left the entire space.
Even the special forces members who opened the power switch were a little surprised that there was such a strong energy supply. You know, in order to light up all the lights in such a large area, the power required is extremely high.
Even the shelter where the survivors live has maintained a low energy supply level for 19 years. Could it be that all the remaining electricity from the moonlight is used here?
In the brightness, they could see the appearance of Poseidon more clearly.
It was obvious that this was a primitive sea serpent of unimaginable size, its silvery-white metallic scales gleaming in the light, exuding deadly beauty.
Jemengad, what a vivid name.
In mythology, it is in an endless sea, surrounding the entire world, but now, in the center of its circling body, there is indeed something.
Chen Ci calmed himself and moved towards the center. The place was so huge that even if he ran at full speed, it still took him seven or eight minutes.
Finally he saw the appearance of the thing clearly, and also confirmed that it was another source of energy fluctuations.
A corpse torn beyond all recognition.
"Shapley."
"Here they come." Shafulai, who was carrying Fu Tianhe on his back, arrived later.
Seeing the situation, he put Fu Tianhe down without saying a word and handed him to the care of the special forces members. He took off the body parts hanging around his and Fu Tianhe's waists and began to piece them together.
The most professional team doctor came to help, with one leg and one calf, and one hand and one kidney.
One eye.
But that's not enough.
There are also large areas missing.
The head in particular was completely gone, leaving only brutal tear marks on the neck.
Shafley immediately said, "Everyone, disperse and search for any body parts. If you find any, bring them to the center of the area immediately."
"yes!"
"Report, C5 found some bodies."
"F3 found a partial body."
With the joint efforts of 120 team members, dozens of pieces of body were sent to the center. They were scattered everywhere in a disorderly manner, as if the owner was being bitten and thrown wildly, so that they were scattered everywhere.
The team doctor put the entire body together, but the most important part, the head, was still missing.
"Have you made sure that this has been said everywhere?"
"Sure, maybe there is something missing."
"No, it shouldn't be."
Chen Ci stared at the compass in his hand. The chaotic needle was now pointing firmly at the newly unearthed corpse.
He suddenly remembered something and took out Moonlight's neural adapter from Shafley's backpack.
Hold it in your hands and place it gently on the neck of the corpse.
