Li Gu could feel that something was speaking in his brain, the syllables were so vague and chaotic that every nerve was in pain, and the fear and hatred in his heart were quietly growing.

Elysium.

Elysium——

Four words seemed to be formed in the weird and chaotic voice, which kept repeating in Li Gu's brain, as if to be engraved in his heart.

kill family...

Only by killing your family members and completing the entire sacrifice...you can go to the Paradise of Elysium...

To achieve true happiness and eternal life...

The voice kept reverberating, forming echoes one after another, spreading out, getting thicker and thicker, and in the end it was impossible to hear what was being said.

Li Gu was in so much pain that he kept hitting the floor, ignoring the pain caused by the bleeding from his head, he almost roared and shouted: "I won't believe you, get out of my mind."

The dilapidated and cramped room seemed to be because Li Gu was suffering from some kind of strange attack, and thin cracks appeared on the walls constantly.

The little boy inside the cupboard hugged his legs tightly in horror, and murmured in a low voice: "Why don't I grow up quickly."

Inside the wooden door, the man's insulting voice sounded again.

"Bitch! Do you want to leave me!"

"Everyone looks down on me, and you look down on me too!"

There was a faint sound of weeping from inside the wooden door, as if he was afraid of being heard by the children outside the door.

Li Gu's eyes turned red in an instant, and he could barely hear the damned voice in his head. He just stared at the wooden door, as if he saw the damned man and his mother lying on the ground through the wooden door.

In a trance, he became a child who could only hide in the cabinet door, hating himself all the time for not being able to rely on his mother.

The only thing he can do when he is young is to hide and not let his father see him, so as not to beat and kick his mother again because of his anger.

The thin crying inside the door turned out to be more depressing.

Killing intent gradually surged in Li Gu's heart, overshadowing that fear. In the past, he regretted that he couldn't protect his mother, but now, he didn't want to hide in the cabinet anymore.

Li Gu's lips trembled, and he spit out a word lightly.

"mom……"

"Mom... I grow up, I can protect you."

Li Gu spoke word by word, and the memories in his heart became more solid.

There are good and bad obsessions. Li Gu also has an obsession with his mother in his heart. This feeling has gradually deepened with the passage of time, and can no longer be easily polluted by weird voices.

The door covered in flesh and blood seemed to be unable to support the confrontation between the two forces, and it made a tooth-piercing creaking sound.

The eyes in the flesh and blood seemed to want to open.

The doorknob of the corridor began to shake desperately, and Li Gu's state became more intense, as if two parties were constantly fighting for autonomy.

Xia Chenxi immediately realized something, and quickly used the hand wrapped around the chain to tightly hold the shaking doorknob.

Enables the chain ability.

In an instant.

The invisible chains began to spread from Xia Chenxi's arms, and the chill was quietly eroding the flesh and blood, and gradually wrapped around the flesh and blood on the door, gradually tightening it.

Immediately, dense chain traces appeared in the flesh and blood, which sank deeply, squeezing closed eyes one after another, and the flesh and blood splashed into the air but dissipated.

When the special police in the house saw this scene, the worldview on the verge of collapse faintly showed signs of shattering again.

What they have encountered today is something they have never dared to imagine in their entire lives.

Simultaneously.

The arrival of Xia Chenxi also gave the special police officers a glimmer of hope that maybe they could safely evacuate from this building.

As for killing the monster on the third floor, they didn't even dare to think about it.

These mob-like residents have such terrifying and weird abilities.

What about monsters?

It never showed its face from the beginning to the end, but it could easily mobilize these red mist, trapping them in this building and unable to escape.

They can only pass the information in the building to the higher-ups after they get out alive, and let the higher-ups activate heavy weapons to completely destroy the building.

About two seconds.

The dense flesh and blood on the door disappeared, including those tightly closed eyes.

The monster is likely to withdraw temporarily.

But the residents outside the door are still attacking the door persistently, cutting the door again and again with the knife condensed from the bottom of their hearts.

In other words, it is attacking Li Gu's inner world.

Li Gu's tense body immediately relaxed, and the situation was much better than before.

He panted slowly, and his consciousness gradually calmed down, until a drop of blood dripped into his eyes, dyeing the world in front of him red.

Li Gu wiped off the blood on his forehead with his hospital gown, and looked at the wooden door again.

Inside the door, the man's scolding became more and more intense.

The little boy in the cabinet door was so frightened that his eyes were wide open, and he never shed a single tear from the beginning to the end.

Perhaps it is because I have seen such scenes all the year round, and I have long since lost the ability to shed tears.

Or.

Tears will only irritate the man more and become more violent.

There was a hint of worry hidden in Xia Chenxi's eyes. She didn't know if the change in this house was a good thing for Li Gu, or it represented some unknown bad thing.

He probably sensed Xia Chenxi's thoughts.

Li Gu explained in a hoarse voice: "The stronger the insults inside the wooden door, the more frightened I will become inside the cabinet door. These pains will be transformed into my strength, and the knife in my heart will become stronger. sharp."

The more it hurts, the stronger it will be.

Because pain and fear will turn into strength, and it also means that he will keep recalling the past, repeatedly torturing and hurting himself.

Therefore, although this knife can hurt people, it is also hurting oneself.

Xia Chenxi glanced at Li Gu's palm, and immediately realized that Li Gu had to pay the same price as him for controlling this knife.

The palm of Li Gu's hand was almost cut open by dense knife edges, and in some places, the bone could be seen deeply, and the scalp felt numb to the people who watched it.

perhaps.

When Li Gu held the knife tightly, he was also enduring some kind of pain in his heart.

Noticing Xia Chenxi's gaze, Li Gu explained: "Perhaps as you said, ordinary people have to pay different prices and side effects for possessing abilities."

"I can't hold this knife tightly for a long time. The longer I use it, the knife will continue to cut my palm until the entire palm is broken, and maybe this ability will disappear."

But what happens when it disappears?

Nobody will know.

Xia Chenxi thought sure enough, he thought for a while and asked a more serious question again, "Then the last question, will your abilities be restricted by monsters?"

after all.

Li Gu's ability comes from this monster.

The residents were all suppressed by the monster, and even had to obey the monster's order to go to the third floor from other floors.

This also means that no matter how strong the monsters on the third floor are, there is no way to fight them head-on.

Its conditions for killing people are too harsh. Only those who are infected by the world of bliss and kill their family members can become its killing targets.

As long as all the residents on the third floor can be eliminated, their chances of killing monsters will be very high.

Li Gu immediately understood what Xia Chenxi meant, and said, "There is an 80.00% probability that it will not."

80.00%?

This probability is already very high.

While Xia Chenxi felt at ease, she remembered another matter and asked quickly, "If you use your abilities, how long can you last?"

Li Gu looked down at the gauze-wrapped palm, and estimated the time, "It can last for at least 2 minutes."

Xia Chenxi calculated her remaining time.

4 and a half minutes.

Once the chain is used for more than 4 and a half minutes, the cost of using the chain will start to be executed.

Although the monster couldn't kill everyone head-on, he might have to pay a lot if he wanted to kill the monster.

The last time he dealt with the resurrected female corpse, his leg was injured again, and he could barely walk after half a month.

And this time.

He used the chain repeatedly in a short period of time, which would probably make the price even heavier this time.

But he had no choice.

No matter how dangerous it is, he still wants to get the fragmented map dropped by the monster and another title.

When Xia Chenxi thought of this, the hesitation in his heart completely disappeared, and he said to everyone: "This door should be able to resist for 10 minutes, everyone should hurry up and take a rest."

Everyone immediately took a rest, realizing that there would be a more difficult battle to fight next.

Li Gu's hands had already been dealt with briefly. He stared at the angry voice and the woman's cry inside the wooden door, and kept accumulating fear and killing intent in his heart, making the knife sharper.

Take advantage of this time.

Xia Chenxi read [Map] silently in her heart, and turned on the dimmest little spot of light.

The screen immediately expanded and turned into a three-dimensional map of [Xinlou].

From the tenth floor to the first floor, all the room unit numbers are marked. The rooms that have not been entered will be gray, and the rooms that have been entered will be lit.

Xia Chenxi zoomed in on the map again with her consciousness, wanting to see more details.

But apart from the words [Heart Building] marked above, there are no other words displayed in the three-dimensional map of the entire building.

Xia Chenxi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt cold sweat.

Could it be that the hole he dug on the third floor wasn't the passageway?

But if the third floor is not the exit, is the first floor the real exit?

Xia Chenxi hesitated.

There are many reasons why the map does not show exits.

The most likely one was that he had never been to the first floor from the beginning to the end, and it was still gray, so the real entrance could not be shown.

Just like the blood-colored rice fields, most of the information is all black.

Because Xia Chenxi never went there.

But the dream world is a little different.

Even if Xia Chenxi hadn't entered the passage on the left, there would still be text prompts on it, but Xia Chenxi couldn't understand what it meant.

The cause of these two completely different situations is likely to be related to the fact that he was the one who survived the weird incident and got the weapon.

The dream world is more closely connected with him.

What Xia Chenxi needs to think about now is assuming that the first floor is really the exit.

So where will the black mist tunnel he dug on the third floor lead to?

Or rather.

Could it be a gateway to another weird world?

All of this needs to get the mysterious fragments dropped by the monsters on the third floor, as well as the memory to know the details and cause and effect.

Taking advantage of the break, the two sides began to exchange information with each other.

It was only then that Xia Chenxi learned why Li Gu was here.

When the building was completely filled with red mist.

All the special police officers were scattered on different floors, and most of the special police officers in this room were on the second and third floors.

Li Gu is on the first floor.

Li Gu dreamed of his childhood home again.

His mother's unbearable cries and wailing accompanied him throughout his childhood until he grew up.

When he dreamed of this place many times, his heart would feel like it was being held by invisible big hands. Desperation, fear, and powerlessness towards himself all turned into deep obsessions entangled in his heart, and a large amount of red mist was constantly floating. .

Standing in front of the wooden door, he seemed to have made up millions of pictures in reality, which gave him endless power.

For the first time, he plucked up the courage to open that door. Even if it was just a dream, he still wanted to rescue the mother in the dream.

Inside the door, a huge and crowded monster was staring at him, roaring and trying to rush out to kill him.

And at its feet, lay a woman with a haggard face and covered in bruises.

That was the mother who was still very young in my memory when I was a child.

In the dream, she instinctively hugged the monster's feet, and shouted to Li Gu: "Get out, don't come in."

Tears fell down one after another, and the woman's voice was terrified and uneasy, begging the man not to get close to the child, "Please, as long as I don't hurt the child, I will be obedient."

The monster stopped, turned around and started beating the woman again.

The woman didn't struggle at all, lying on the ground, she kept gesturing to Li Gu to run away.

Hatred and instinctive fear of his father erupted at this moment, and the hatred that had accumulated in his heart for more than ten years quietly condensed in his heart, turning into a sharp knife.

Li Gu thought it was just a dream, and slowly pulled out the knife. The blood and stinging pain immediately cut his palm, but the killing intent in his heart was completely aroused.

Holding the knife tightly, he rushed up to fight the monster. He was as tall as the monster's father, and his arms were as thick as a bucket. He could smash him to the ground with a single swing.

Li Gu spat out the blood, rushed up desperately again, and stabbed down again and again with the knife, the blood splashed out instantly, filling the room without knowing when.

The woman hugged the man again, crying not to hurt the child.

The boy inside the cabinet door seemed to grow more frightened, curling himself up even deeper.

Li Gu finally forced the man back, and came to the woman in a blink of an eye, "Mom..."

The woman raised her head with blood all over her face, held Li Gu's hand tightly, as if looking at a six-year-old child, and said stubbornly: "Hide, don't let Dad find you."

Li Guhui held the woman's hand, and before he could speak, the room in front of him changed again, and the injured man returned to his original state again, continuing to repeat his previous lines.

"Bitch, other people look down on me, don't you also look down on me?"

The wound on the woman's body recovered even more, she tried to cover her head with her arms, and let out a suppressed cry.

Li Gu attacked the man again like crazy.

When the man fell to the ground bleeding again, the scene in front of him changed again, returning to the very beginning.

It's like a movie that will never end, playing in a loop.

Li Gu knelt on the ground with trembling hands, and suddenly realized that all this was just his own memory.

In the room in the memory, there is no grown-up self at all, let alone the so-called change, not to mention, the man who should go to hell should have died in prison by now.

That monster, maybe just the "father" image in his fantasy, was tall and terrifying like a mountain and could not be shaken.

And the mother, because she couldn't resist and chose to endure everything, raised herself as much as possible.

He and his mother have already escaped from hell. He has grown into a very good researcher, and his salary is enough to buy a house in this city. His mother left early due to perennial malnutrition and poor health. For ten years, she cared and accompanied her with all her heart, and made her mother leave this world with a smile.

At some point, Li Gu gradually woke up from fear and anger, and finally noticed the dense red mist that appeared around him at some point. Out of the instinct of a researcher at the experimental base, he immediately realized that his state was very wrong.

Suddenly, Li Gu even had a frightening thought.

Is he really dreaming?

Li Gu ran out of the room in a hurry, and the moment his feet stepped out of the door, everything in front of him instantly changed into another appearance.

There were red flesh and blood all around, and countless eyes were staring at him.

He turned his head, only to find that the home behind the door had disappeared.

"Where is this?"

Li Gu felt chills in his heart, trying to keep calm and recall his memory as much as possible.

That's right, he should be in the experimental base right now. Due to the anesthesia after the operation, he is completely in a coma.

So why did he come to this place?

Everything in front of me seemed too real.

Most importantly, it is impossible for a dreamer to have such a real reaction and thinking ability.

Li Gu lowered his head and quickly looked at himself.

He was still wearing a hospital gown, but all the wounds were gone, as if he had never been bitten by a sarcoma on the head.

Such a scene reminded Li Gu of the dream world experienced by the surviving residents of Fengnian Community. These people were also pulled into a weird place in their dreams, where flesh and blood and corpses were everywhere, and the wounds on their bodies were gone.

And here, it's also all flesh and blood.

How similar it all is.

Could this be the second unknown dream world?

Li Gu became excited again after the panic, which meant that he could study and analyze what these things were at a close distance.

What the hell is a monster?

As for why he was drawn in, Li Gu also had his own rough guess.

Must be those head sarcoids.

They may also have some kind of terrible contagion, pulling themselves into this world.

No matter where it is, it will definitely not be as peaceful as it appears on the surface, and there may even be unknown monsters in the dark.

Li Gu knew that he couldn't defeat monsters, but everything he experienced in his memory was still vivid in his mind, and the scar on his palm proved that all this was not an illusion.

Li Gu's complexion changed slightly, could it be that the home in his memory was manifested for some reason.

But why is it gone now?

Li Gu touched his heart, but did not find the so-called knife, but strangely, he could feel that there was something in his body, which seemed to need a certain method to activate.

at this time.

The door behind Li Gu opened quietly, and a man poked his head out and whispered, "Brother, how did you get in?"

Before Li Gu could speak, when the other party saw Li Gu's injured hand, his complexion suddenly changed, and he looked left and right before lowering his voice and said, "You won't encounter monsters, will you?"

Li Gu's heart trembled, and he immediately walked over and asked, "What do you know?"

The other party swallowed, as if he was afraid of being heard by something, he almost shrank most of his body behind the door, and his voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible: "You come in first, if you stay in the corridor for too long, the monster will be attracted .”

Li Gugang wanted to enter the house, but he heard intense gunshots from the second floor, as well as several people's intense conversations.

"Captain, these monsters are not human at all, and they cannot be killed with a gun."

"Hit them all hard, and then find a way to go upstairs to meet Xia Chenxi and the others. I'm afraid only he can deal with this."

Xia Chenxi?

Li Gu will not forget this name, and instinctively wants to go to the second floor, but the residents on the first floor hurriedly stopped him, "You don't want to die, those voices on the second floor are probably the illusion that lures you to the past, you Don't die in vain."

Li Gu turned his head and said, "I will come back to find you after I finish going to the second floor."

The resident on the first floor still looked anxious, and kept moaning and moaning to persuade him to stay, but this matter was related to Xia Chenxi, so Li Gu had to go to the second floor to find out what was going on.

As a result, Li Gucai realized with fear that the residents in this building were all monsters, who pretended to be humans to lure people into the room and kill them.

And all this information was obtained at the expense of two special police officers.

The residents on the third floor also used this method to lure them into the house. At the most critical moment, Li Gu finally showed the knife in his heart, and used the knife to fight the residents on the opposite side. The obsession turned into his own hatred and fear killed the other party.

But the price was that the scars on the palms were deeper.

But what puzzled Li Gu the most was that when he and everyone wanted to leave from the third floor, the room behind him quietly changed into what he remembered. The monster's father scolded the wooden door again. Voice.

The obsession in his heart reappeared.

Li Gu can feel that he is staying in this room, and his obsession is constantly getting stronger.

In other words, the stronger the monster inside the door, the more fearful the little boy will be. All these are constantly stimulating the scars in his heart, leading to more and more obsession, and making the knife in his heart sharper.

Li Gu clearly knew that the monster inside the door was not his real father, and he wanted to make himself stronger as soon as possible, so as to completely destroy this nightmare memory that belonged to him.

He doesn't want to recall the past.

So he tried to kill one of the residents to the point of death and threw him through the door.

The monster got stronger.

And the obsession in his heart became stronger.

He hated the man who was supposed to be his father in reality, and even more hated the monster who was still beating his mother in his nightmare.

Just a second.

When he becomes stronger, all these nightmares will be over. He will completely kill the monster inside the door, so that his mother and himself in the memory will be freed.
