Chapter 381: The Origin of the Industry
It's like a world in daylight, with the bright light constantly retreating, but still being covered by the approaching black.
"Crack!"
The clear and empty world cracked. Tang Sui, who closed his eyes, noticed something was wrong and opened his eyes quickly.
What you enter is not a clear and bright world, but a deep corridor that is so long that there is no end in sight.
On both sides of the walkway, about ten meters away, there will be a hole lantern placed on the ground.
However, in the quiet darkness, the orange-yellow lights could only illuminate a small corner and could not see anything else.
"La la. la."
The old-fashioned nursery rhymes played on the record player reached Tang Sui's ears.
But it seemed that because it was too long ago, or the equipment was extremely aged, the sound of the nursery rhymes kept getting stuck, giving her a shuddering and cold feeling.
Humming this ethereal and eerie nursery rhyme felt like someone was stabbing her brain with a needle, causing severe pain.
Tang Sui held her painful temple with some pain, trying to relieve the pain.
Time is blurred here, the deep and boundless darkness is like the irreversible night, and the rich smell of blood seeps into the screen along with the light of the high-hanging red moon, pours into the room, and spreads in this dim space.
Suddenly, Tang Sui stopped, turned around thoughtfully, and looked behind him alertly.
"who?!"
"."
On the dim corridor, a dark figure stood quietly in the shadow where little light penetrated.
The darkness blurred the man's face, and only his outline could be faintly seen.
Obviously he couldn't see the appearance and didn't know what it was, but the moment the black shadow appeared, Tang Sui's heart stagnated subconsciously, and the "thumping" sound amplified in his ears, as if it was about to disappear from the sky in the next second.
A deep sense of fear jumped out of her chest, and even her pupils trembled and shrank in shock.
In the long, seemingly endless corridor, the atmosphere became depressing and deep, as if there was some terrifying existence hiding in the darkness, ready to move.
The figure gradually enlarged in Tang Sui's eyes. Tang Sui, realizing that the other person was approaching her, took a step back suddenly, her voice a little urgent:
"Don't come over"
But what made Tang Sui's expression suddenly change was that the figure did not pause at all, but slowly but firmly approached her step by step.
Tang Sui subconsciously wanted to escape, but the moment she had this idea, a biting coldness spread densely from the soles of her feet to her whole body.
"Kaka!"
The ground beneath her feet suddenly opened into several wide chasms, like a gaping mouth of an abyss, swallowing her up unexpectedly.
"ah!"
The feeling of weightlessness that followed after stepping into the air made Tang Sui subconsciously scream. She wanted to use her demon power to stabilize herself, but found that all the power in her body, whether it was demon power or soul power, was as still as dead water, without any response.
.
What's going on?
A trace of surprise and uncertainty appeared on Tang Sui's face, but the next second——
"Bang!"
Tang Sui, who had stopped falling, smashed awkwardly against the solid wooden door. His body made a dull sound, and pain hit him. His body, which had obviously been strengthened, seemed to be as fragile and sensitive as before.
"Ugh!"
"Click——!"
Before he could calm down, he only had time to let out a muffled groan. The wooden door beneath him cracked from the middle again. Tang Sui's eyes widened slightly and fell again.
"Bang!"
Tang Sui, who tried to adjust herself in mid-air, failed to adjust and hurriedly hit the next wooden door. Before she could recover, she made the same mistake again.
"Bang!"
Ruoyouruowu's sarcastic laughter reached his ears, and Tang Sui, who was lying on the wooden door in a panic, raised his head with difficulty, and the thick and pungent smell of blood filled his nose.
She didn't know if it was the smell in the air or her own blood.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
After repeatedly hitting the wooden door six times, Tang Sui landed at the bottom.
He didn't have time to react at all, so he hit the door.
His whole body was in severe pain like a broken bone, but Tang Sui gritted his teeth and stood up with difficulty, limping.
However, when she stood firm and raised her head, what came into view was another scene——
Like a jigsaw puzzle that has been broken and reassembled, countless retro corridors and buildings are interspersed, and are absurdly and horrifyingly displayed in this dark and infinite space.
The abstract and distorted scenes like oil paintings were layered in Tang Sui's eyes, and finally twisted into dark light and shadow, sinking in her eyes. Only the occasional flash of scarlet lines became the only bright color in her pupils.
The flowing red quenched the entire field of vision, and the crazy and suppressed sounds were like the hazy experience of falling into a dream. The noisy murmurs spread out the sound waves, forming a rolling vortex, and connected into one, riddled with holes, forming an even more chaotic and terrifying space.
But Tang Sui felt a long-lost sense of familiarity in this chaotic space.
It's like she's been here before.
She had been here countless times, and it was so profound that even if her brain had forgotten it, the feeling was engraved in her soul. After being triggered, she began to strongly suggest that——
【Go forward.】
The voice belonging to the system sounded faintly in this chaotic and disorderly world.
She wanted to take steps forward, but another unknown force stopped her.
Unable to move, Tang Sui couldn't see that her snow-white ankles were entangled in the black-red light mist, and her shrinking pupils reflected the horrifying and chaotic scene in front of her.
"Look."
The cold temperature and the cold breath came up from behind. Tang Sui's breathing quickened, but another gentle and cool breath suddenly sounded in his ears.
"I found you."
——But I don’t want to be found by you.
This idea came to mind almost instantly.
Tang Sui clenched her hands into fists, and all her fear turned into the strength to break the shackles. She quickly turned around while regaining control of her body, a sharp light burst out from her clear blue eyes, and she put her five fingers together, turning her palms into sharp weapons.
, at the moment when he completed his turn, he stabbed hard into the body of another being.
"Bah,"
The bright red blood spattered, and a few drops landed on his cheeks.
Tang Sui's eyes widened in disbelief, and another face appeared in her pupils. She was extremely familiar with it, a face she saw every day.
——That's her own appearance.
The pupils were stained with ink that she had not noticed, and two pairs of similar but different eyes faced each other. One pair slowly rose into mist, while the other pair was extremely calm, and even clearly reflected the look of her crying.
"you"
Just after they found their first pronunciation, the dizzy deep blood was consciously pulled away from their long lapels, stretched into red threads, and entwined their wrists together.
——This is her sin.
Suddenly, when the scarlet lines completely wrapped and covered his body, Tang Sui thought of these words.
[Beep——The awakening of demon power failed.]
———Digression————
