This sudden turn of events caught Xiao Sheng off guard, and a new round of whinnying sounds like a wraith came from behind.

Here it comes.

This time, it’s not an illusion!

Sainz didn't know what was going on in his head, but he wanted to look back.

Fortunately, Xiao Sheng stood closer this time. He strode forward and pressed Sainz's head from the other side, making him look straight ahead. Then he put his hands on Sainz's gray sweatshirt with disgust. Wipe off any saliva that accidentally got on you.

"Thank you..."

Sainz also immediately realized what had just happened.

"You're welcome. You owe me a lot."

Xiao Sheng was also merciless.

"Go on, put Bankilas into the ball, at least take his body away first. I'm dragging it with my hands... it's not very convenient..."

Xiao Sheng regretted not calling Sainz to put Bankiras in the ball in advance, but now it was obvious that it was too late to say anything.

"it is good!"

However, things are far from over.

A wave of unrest, a wave of up!

A powerful suction force came, and the mysterious being behind him finally took action!Also coming was the roar that made people feel like their souls were screaming!

Gravity seems to have tilted, and the original flat land has turned into an almost vertical steep slope. A terrible force is capturing people who want to escape here.

"Well……"

Zeraora, who was behind the mouth, was the first to react. She used her claws to catch Jirachi, who was falling backwards uncontrollably, and held her firmly in her arms. Then she dug her claws into the blue bricks beneath her feet. Successfully immobilized his body.

Lucario made the power of the waveguide into a bone rod and inserted it into the ground, fixing himself and Absol in front so that they would not be led away by the wind.

Xiao Sheng slid back a few steps and smashed the bricks with one punch. He grabbed the broken edges with one hand and held Sainz's hand tightly with the other.

However, Sainz screamed in shock. His physical disadvantage was finally revealed at this moment, because when the strong wind blowing back had just arrived, his body had already moved backward uncontrollably. Look up.

He turned back!

While struggling, he seemed to see the huge shadow launching the attack, as well as a pair of cold lantern-sized eyes floating in the air.

The look in his eyes that revealed greed and hunger made Sainz wake up instantly. He used all his strength and said to Xiao Sheng:

"I can see clearly, what is attacking us is - the crystal lantern fire spirit!!!"

However, when he said this name, what responded to him was not Xiao Sheng's echo, but the constant buzzing in his ears and the bright light that could block everything.

And at this moment, he seemed to have completely lost consciousness.

In a daze, he woke up, and was surprised to find that he was standing squarely on the blue brick floor, and Xiao Sheng's arms were tightly pressed against his back wall. The warm touch was extremely real.

Although there is suction from the rear, it is not as strong as before.

Before?

Was it really windy before?

Sainz slashed at the ground with the corner of his eye, but found nothing.Xiao Sheng's concerned voice came from behind his ear.

"what happened to you?"

However, it was this voice of concern that made Sainz's vest go cold and the hairs on his hair stand on end!

That person would never talk to him in this tone!

He did not look back, but said coldly:

"This is an illusion, what are you hiding?"

"Ah…"

A familiar chuckle came, but the tone made Sainz feel strange and frightened.

Everything in front of him was shattered like a lens. In the blink of an eye, Sainz opened his eyes again and saw a brand new scene.

"Are you still alive?"

This does not come from my heart, but from my ears.

"At least for the time being."

Sainz breathed a sigh of relief, but...

Is what I saw this time really real?

He lowered his head and looked at the ground. The traces of Xiao Sheng's violence just now still remained on the ground. Everything seemed so real and believable.

Is it really believable?

So Sainz said:

"What just happened?"

"The wind stopped, and you fainted for about ten seconds. You also said a bunch of meaningless words like a baby babbling."

"What about before I passed out?"

"Benjilas was kidnapped by Marshado, and we were attacked by unknown creatures. Fortunately, I caught you in time. Fortunately, we are all okay...?"

"Xiao Sheng, can I trust you?"

Xiao Sheng's face became solemn, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind, and finally he said:

"No. I can't be trusted."

"Okay, then I have to tell you something."

"Say."

Sainz paused, his voice trembling:

"I...just turned around."

Xiao Sheng's originally dilated pupils shrank sharply at this moment, his blood-red eyes filled with disbelief.

"I understand, are you okay? Tell me the truth?"

Sainz continued to move forward, but found that something was holding him in place. It was not that he could not move forward, but that if he moved forward any further, a heartbreaking pain would come from the soles of his feet, and his face was painfully Transform instantly.

what happened?

Xiao Sheng once again supported Sainz's shaky body from the back with his hands, and an alarm bell suddenly sounded in his heart.

What exactly happened? !

He used the power of the waveguide to look back, but could not see anything. Looking forward, there was only the realistic light coming from the nearby exit. The natural sunlight made people feel the light from the outside to the inside.

"Can you go forward?"

"Eryyy——" Sainz struggled to take a step forward, with clear drops of sweat dripping from his forehead due to severe pain. This step seemed to have exhausted all the 11-year-old boy's physical strength.

My legs were as if they were filled with lead, heavy and painful, and I could no longer lift them.

He could go no further.

Even if I just want to move forward slightly, I can't.

When Sainz neighed again from behind, his mind went blank, his face was tangled, he kept shaking his head, and countless thoughts suddenly flowed through his mind.

Everything in the past began to race through his mind.

He didn't want to stay here, let alone stay here alone.

Finally, his eyes turned red and he turned around with a painful look on his face, shaking his head at Xiao Sheng.

how come?

Xiao Sheng felt his eyes began to become moist. He looked at Sainz in disbelief and pursed his lips.

At this moment, he felt despair for the first time since he came to this world. He didn't feel this way even when he encountered the Philo Mantis last time.

He will not feel despair because of his own demise, but the person in front of him...

At this moment, Xiao Sheng seemed to hear a voice ringing in his heart.

Leave him behind and live.

Xiao Sheng knew that this was not his own thought, because the buzzing caused by the hallucination appeared in his ears again.

But, didn't he really have this idea at some point?

He knew it deep down.

The exit is right in front of you, crossing it means survival.

Ten steps later, there is the world of the living!

Xiao Sheng's eyes moved away from Sainz's face and looked at the arch inlaid with lavender gems, and his eyes gradually became clear.

"Leave me here and go...help me...take care of Absol..."

Seeing Xiao Sheng's erratic eyes, Sainz said.

Xiao Sheng pursed his lips, not knowing how to speak, and his heart was deeply filled with a sense of powerlessness that he had never felt before.

He wants to go.

He doesn't want to go.

go.

don't go.

"Listen to me, I saw it. It's a crystal lantern spirit, a huge crystal lantern spirit. It's looking at me. It's just me... I have one more thing to say about my life experience... I... …”

Xiao Sheng took a big step forward.

At this moment, Sainz felt cold inside, even if this was the result he expected.

However, Xiao Sheng suddenly stopped moving forward. The exit was ahead, and he could escape to heaven if he went further, but he did not continue to move forward.

because…

He is already ready to wake up!

Xiao Sheng has walked to the front. His shadow was originally stretched out under the light of the human world, like a ghost. But at this moment, the shadow miraculously closed and returned to his feet. His shadow recovered. Became his own size.

Seeing Xiao Sheng's action, Sainz already understood his next action, and he suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart. Then the first thing to spit out was:

"don't want--"

"Ow!!!"

Lucario who was further behind also saw this scene and shouted anxiously to stop it!

However, just as he turned his head halfway, he could no longer continue to move. He was stuck at the original angle like a stopped clock.

"Don't look back, don't look back, don't look back..."

A strange voice came to my ears, the voice of a young adolescent boy.

Xiao Sheng felt a weight pressing on his shoulders, and a pair of invisible hands caught his neck. His body was controlled by them, preventing him from turning back!

This is not an illusion!

His blocked vision and clear perception of the power of the waveguide allowed him to identify the sudden small sound.

He shouted its name!

"Marshado!!!"

However, Mashado did not let go, but continued:

"Don't look back, never look back. I can save your companions. I've already done that once!"
