city ​​of the end

Chapter 271 The Abyss (End)

"What the hell is this damn place?!!"

Alice always felt that after she found out that she had become a ghost, she had nothing to be afraid of.But now, Alice was rarely caught in a panic and anxiety.

In fact, at the beginning, Alice didn't panic too much. Although she also found that she had lost contact with Ai Luka and the others, but Alice used to be the owner of Dream City. Of course, she knows that some gathering places are self-contained. Regional networks, not through energy networks, this may be one of them.And they may have strayed into such a gathering place unknowingly, so Alice was not particularly flustered at that time, but wanted to find the elf girl, because she also found that the situation was a bit weird, but she used the soul chain to lock her She was connected with the elf girl, and Alice was sure that the two went in together, but she couldn't understand why the elf girl disappeared.

In fact, there is one thing Alice did not tell others, that is, she actually has the ability of "human body radar" similar to Krona. She is a ghost body and has a very keen sense of life, so as long as Alice concentrates If so, then the lives within hundreds of miles are almost invisible to her.

It's just that Alice never told Faerun and others about this matter. First of all, she is different from Ailuka and others. The three sisters are Faerun's subordinates, and the elf girl was rescued by Faerun.But strictly speaking, Alice is just a fellow traveler. Although Alice was only in her teens when the catastrophe came, it is not in vain that she has lived in the city of dreams for so many years in the form of a soul, otherwise those How did Lundu find the insidious rules of the game?

Familiars don't have this ability.

Therefore, the relationship between Alice, Ferran and others is actually very delicate, probably at the level where the companions are not full, Alice likes to chat with Crona and Franka, you must know that in the city of dreams After staying for so many years, she didn't even have a person to talk to, but she was so bored.Although those souls imprisoned in the Dream City also have self-awareness, but because Alice washed away the memory of those souls, they just live according to the instilled memory, which is obviously not in line with Alice's appetite.

But the friendship between the two parties is actually this level.

Alice is willing to follow Faerun to fight a few times, but if the situation is not good, she can run faster than anyone else. This time, Faerun asked her to come to the deep sea city, Alice's 180 reasons for her reluctance.If it was Iluka, Chris, Delin and others who had the accident this time, then Alice might just run away without saying a word.But her relationship with the elf girl is relatively good. During these days on the submarine, Alice basically stayed in the rear engine control room to live with the elf girl.In Faerun's team, Franka, Culona, ​​and the elf girl are the ones who are most compatible with Alice.The first two are because the psychological age is not much different, and the latter is because both parties have the same memories before the catastrophe, which can be regarded as "a fellow countryman sees a fellow countryman, with tears in his eyes", so Alice didn't run away immediately, and It is to search patiently.

But now, Alice regretted coming home.

Because she found herself in a place with a completely different style of painting.

Alice can swear on her own name. She just made a very normal and ordinary action, pushed open a door, and walked into a corridor.In her opinion, this is actually quite normal, but what makes Alice depressed is that she shouldn't, she shouldn't, she shouldn't learn how to walk like a human on a whim!
Well, this statement is actually a bit wrong, but in fact there is nothing wrong with it—Alice is a ghost, and her usual way of moving is basically through walls and floating.But I don't know if Alice was confused this time, she suddenly had an idea, "That guy is a human being, so I will definitely not find it if I use the ghost method, so I have to use the human method to find it." Find out where she went!"

Alice herself feels that her thinking logic has no dead ends. After all, when she was six years old, her father once told her that if she wanted to find the lost cat, she had to think of herself as a cat...

Then Alice imagined herself as a human being, pushed open a door, and walked down a corridor...

And then Alice's tragedy begins.

"Well……………"

She stretched out her hand and pushed forward the heavy wooden door behind her. If it was normal, Alice didn't need to do this at all. She could go through the door directly by stretching her arms, but now However, Alice was horrified to find that the world had changed.

Those things that she could have easily passed through had regained their physical form.But I have no way to go through time travel!
What the hell is this place!

Now Alice is getting more and more uneasy. What is in front of her at this moment is a church hall that looks magnificently decorated, but there are no crosses or the like placed here. On the contrary, on the front altar, hanging Something that made Alice uncomfortable just looking at it, it was a strange geometric shape that she couldn't describe at all, and there was a pattern of eyes carved on it... I don't know why, looking at that thing, Alice I always feel like I am being watched by some disgusting monster.

"Hmm... no, I really want to vomit..."

Alice shook her head and forced herself to look away from that weird sculpture. In fact, she also had some doubts in her heart. Before the catastrophe, her father brought her here, and she also went to church to pray. , Why haven't I heard of any church with such a weird belief?

What makes Alice even more depressed is that this church has no windows!
Although she can still fly, the walls and doors here are tightly closed, and if she cannot pass through, then Alice is no different from being locked up here.

"…………!"

"Ok?"

Just when Alice was about to find another way to leave here, she suddenly turned her head and glanced around the church in doubt——at the top of the church in the sea water, because of the energy network, the The crystal chandelier still exudes soft and bright light.But I don't know if it was Alice's illusion, she always felt that the church was gloomy, not at all like the church in her memory... On the contrary, it was like those cult lairs polluted by fallen devils in the capital of dreams, But that is the effect of the game, but this one is closer to reality.Not only that, Alice also felt that since just now, she seemed to have been hearing someone whispering. At first Alice thought it was just her own illusion, but she heard this after connecting several times. sound.What makes Alice feel weird is that every time she concentrates on trying to hear what the voice is saying, the voice disappears.But after she diverted her attention, this voice appeared again...

"Snoring..."

And just when Alice was having a headache from this sound, suddenly, she heard a strange sound. Alice turned her head hurriedly and looked towards the place where the sound came from, but the only thing she saw was a flashing past shadows.

"Get out of here!!"

Alice is not an ordinary child, she is also an ability user, and she is also a very special soul ability user. At this moment, she has been disturbed by the series of strange situations before, and now she sees the trace of the enemy , naturally stretched out his hand unceremoniously, and saw that with Alice's movement, dozens of ice edges emerged out of thin air, and quickly blasted towards the place where the black shadow flashed just now.

"Boom boom boom boom!!"

The ice edge unceremoniously smashed the church in front of her to pieces, and to Alice's surprise, what emerged under the floor pierced by the ice edge was not dirt, but strange, rotten pieces of flesh !
"What the hell is this!!"

Looking at those wriggling pieces of meat, Alice felt that her hair was about to stand on end. If it wasn't for her decades of hard work, the little guy's first reaction would be to run away.But even now, Alice's first reaction was to rush upwards, trying to get out of the room—it wasn't until her head was hit hard by the ceiling that she realized that something was wrong.

"Damn!! Open it for me!!"

Touching the painful forehead, Alice gritted her teeth angrily, then waved her hands again, controlling the ice edge to smash towards the ceiling.I only heard a few explosions, and the ceiling in front of me was also blown away, but Alice didn't see the sea water she wanted to see, but it was still... a corrupt piece of meat that was spraying foul-smelling blood .

"What the hell?!"

Seeing this scene, Alice was taken aback, and she immediately understood what was going on with her... She was eaten by a monster!Only in this way can I explain why I can't get out... It must be that this monster has some kind of special power, which cuts itself off from the outside world!
"Damn, get out of here!"

Thinking of the weird and disgusting monster outside her, Alice couldn't help but shudder, then she screamed and opened her hands, and soon, with Alice's movements, the brilliance of the soul burst out instantly, covering the entire world. the whole church.And illuminated by this brilliance, the movements of the squirming rotting flesh became more and more intense!
