Chapter 167 Help Me Get Free
The goalkeeper maintained a stiff smile and watched him silently.
"I have no idea……"
The phantom figure dressed in black burial clothes put down the photo album in its hand and sighed, "At first, I was in pain, regretful, and wanted to live, but this place is just too boring. I can feel my obsession slowly dissipating."
He died at the young age of twenty-five, in the prime of his life.
She lives in a wealthy family with loving parents and a stable job.
With her parents' support, she bought a house in an upscale residential area. After the house was renovated, she saw a tourism promotional video for Subei on TV. Fortunately, she still had some money left over from the renovation fee her parents had given her.
It then decided to take a housewarming trip.
After much deliberation, I finally chose the Tiger Gully Glacier in Subei.
It took a bus from the bus station to Subei.
It was his first solo trip, and he was so excited. With a big backpack on his back, he strode lightly toward the unknown glacier journey.
Young people always like to challenge the impossible.
Believing its strategy to be foolproof, it lingered on the edge of the snow-capped mountain for a while, ignoring the locals' advice, and ventured alone into the depths of the glacier.
At that time, it had no sense of crisis at all and just wanted to see if the snow survival skills it had learned online would be useful.
They deliberately chose to walk in deserted corners.
As it walked, it kept taking pictures with its phone.
The snow kept falling, and the footprints were quickly covered by the heavy snow.
While attempting to get closer to the edge of the glacier to take more stunning photos, the ice beneath its feet suddenly loosened, causing it to lose its balance. The phone in its hand fell and crashed into a crevice on the other side of the glacier.
It lost its way and lost its phone that could be used to call the police.
The initial excitement was gradually replaced by fear.
The cold relentlessly assailed its body, and hunger and exhaustion followed it relentlessly. It struggled to find a way out, but all around it was endless ice and snow and silence.
As time went by, its strength gradually ran out.
Despair began to spread in my heart.
It was too late for regrets.
It began to miss its warm home and its loving parents.
Night gradually fell.
Just as it was about to freeze to death, it felt its body getting warmer, and it started having all sorts of hallucinations. It saw familiar relatives and friends appear before it, smiling and welcoming it home...
"You're right, even after my heart stopped beating, my consciousness didn't disappear."
The gatekeeper's dark eyes flashed with memories as he said hollowly, "I know I was taken to the morgue by the rescue team, and I heard the police verifying my identity and contacting my parents..."
I imagined my parents' expressions when they heard the devastating news.
At that moment, its obsession broke free from its constraints.
During the long wait, the contaminated area was born.
However, the departure of its parents left its regrets without a place to rest.
Like a kite with a broken string, drifting aimlessly in the long river of time.
The world has undergone tremendous changes, and its obsession and regret, like a candle flickering in the wind, can no longer ignite a raging fire.
Intense emotions are gradually worn down by the sands of time.
But it can't even achieve true liberation.
Xie Tu gently comforted Xiao Yunzhao and listened quietly to its story.
The initial guess was correct.
This gatekeeper is very intelligent, perhaps because he was transformed from a human into a gatekeeper.
It even possesses an extremely high level of self-awareness, and will actively seek liberation.
This was also the first gatekeeper he had met who could communicate calmly and patiently.
Unfortunately, there are no second chances in life.
Everyone has to pay the price for their mistakes.
"Very few humans will come in; it takes several years to get one person, or even just one mutant."
A sinister smile graced its pale face, yet its voice remained remarkably calm as it spoke, "This is the first time in all these years that I've seen so many people."
It unleashed all the mutants, driven by an uncontrollable malice, wanting to kill them and turn them into its own kind.
On the other hand, they also hope that these people will come to them.
The little bluebird perched on Xie Tu's head, raised its noble head, and let out a strange laugh.
It seemed to be mocking the goalkeeper's overestimation of his abilities.
Xie Tu calmly asked, "You still haven't answered my question. Who trapped you here?"
This is crucial.
Only by understanding how contaminated areas are formed can humanity prevent new contaminated areas from appearing.
The gatekeeper stiffly twisted his neck and shook his head. "I don't remember. I was in a daze for many years until I had enough power to awaken my consciousness again."
It slowly raised its illusory arm, and dark matter rapidly gathered in its hand.
"At that time, I had already become the master of this area."
This is its domain.
It can summon wind and rain, change the scenery of any scene at will, and manipulate those rare mutant species.
—That was the only living thing in the entire domain.
Xie Tu squinted slightly, "The gatekeeper of counter-clockwise rotation, is that the phone you threw away?"
"Yes." It seemed to have thought of something, and its pale face broke into a wider smile. "That guy awakened earlier than me. If it hadn't merged into this place, I wouldn't have become stronger."
A definite answer has been obtained.
All doubts were resolved.
Therefore, these merged contaminated areas can coexist peacefully.
The phone must contain a lot of videos and photos of its owner.
It can manipulate time because the phone itself has a built-in time display.
It can switch scenes and even make bullets disappear because the phone has recorded countless images, and those different scenes are like stored fragments of memory.
Looking back now, the protective shield on the mutant was more like a screensaver.
at last.
Xie Tu hugged Xiao Yunzhao tightly and asked in a deep voice, "How can we turn back time and help her recover?"
Xiao Yunzhao nestled against his shoulder and neck without making a sound.
The sunroom was completely isolated from the hospital corridor, so they couldn't hear any outside sounds or see any outside sights.
But time is still flowing faster here.
It made her feel uncomfortable all over; her head was buzzing as if countless bees were flying around.
My vision began to blur, and everything around me was distorted and deformed, as if I had fallen into a bizarre dream.
"I don't know where it is."
The phantom, dressed in a black burial shroud, raised its empty eyes and said, "Find it, destroy it."
Although they have been merged together, they are each independent domains.
It cannot control the counter-clockwise scene.
Xie Tu frowned deeply. "You can't do anything about it either?"
If turning counterclockwise can reverse her age, then turning clockwise should be able to accelerate time and help her recover.
"cannot."
It could sense it, just like it wanted to kill her.
The little girl's murderous intent was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.
The gatekeeper maintained a pale smile. "I have answered all your questions. Now, please help me to be free."
