To be precise, I was standing on a bustling urban street!
The bookstore on the street is one I often visit, as is the movie theater opposite and the video game store next to it. The 24-hour KFC behind it is where I often go to buy snacks in the middle of the night...
…
Looking at the cars passing by on the road in front of me, the traffic lights flashing at the intersection, and the neon lights hanging in front of the shops on both sides...
Du Wei was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help but sigh: "Are you playing like this again, an illusion?"
The pedestrians passing by looked hurriedly and indifferently, and there was a child in the street square holding a balloon in his hand and staggering...
As for me, the magician's robe was gone, and I was wearing a coat that I often wore in my previous life, and a pair of Nike sneakers.
All of this is very much like the "world" in my previous life.
Of course, it's just "like pole".
And at this moment, that hoarse and low voice sounded in Du Wei's heart: "There is a very strange world hidden in your heart..."
Du Wei snorted, looked at the sky, and said coldly: "Although you used to be a snake, now that you are a human being, you should at least know how to respect other people's privacy, right?"
The hoarse voice was not angry at all: "I'm curious, your spiritual world is different from your other two companions... Where is this strange place? These iron things running around, no horse-drawn carriages
...and these tall buildings..."
Du Wei didn't listen to the noise at all. Suddenly a smile appeared on his face, and then he raised his legs and strode across the road. Even when crossing the road, he carefully looked at the cars on the left and right. He took a look.
The red light turned into green, and I crossed the zebra crossing calmly. I came to the 24-hour KFC on the opposite side, dug into my pockets, actually took out my wallet, and bought a spicy chicken drumstick burger plus
An ice cream cone.
The familiar feeling at the entrance almost shook Du Wei's heart at that moment, and he was suddenly moved. Then, under the extremely realistic taste of the delicate and sweet ice cream, Du Wei closed his eyes and savored it.
For a moment, and then suddenly laughed.
He sighed: "Thank you, although you peeked into my heart, but thank you for giving me the opportunity to relive all this... I thought I had forgotten it, but I didn't expect that I still remember it so much in my heart.
Deep."
On the long street, neon lights flashed, and the aristocratic young man smiled calmly and looked deeply...
While Duwei was tasting the ice cream cone in his memory in his inner world, Hussein and Dardaniel encountered a big trouble.
The two of them were standing in a place similar to a circular arena, surrounded by high stands and empty stands.
Hussein was wearing a set of silver armor, which was bright and bright. The Holy Knight badge of the temple flashed on his chest!
However, murderous intent is everywhere around them!
A circle of temple holy knights wearing armor had surrounded the two of them in the innermost place. These knights all had frosty masks on their faces. They had a murderous look on their faces, and the cold light shone on the swords in their hands, with the blade pointing directly at the middlemost person.
Dardanelle and Hussein!
"Hussein! You betrayed the temple and obeyed His Majesty the Pope's decree. Why don't you just surrender? When you arrive at the trial court, you will be judged by the gods. Maybe the gods will come and open up the net to save your life!"
A tall middle-aged knight shouted loudly. He had a big beard on his face and could no longer see his true face. However, Dardaniel was surprised to find that on the chest of this middle-aged knight, in addition to the Holy Knight emblem,
He also wears a ninth-level knight badge issued by the Continental Knights Association!
Ninth-level knight? Wouldn’t that be...
Sure enough, Hussein's face was as dark as water, staring at everything around him. Then he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahahaha! What a Medusa! You can actually do this illusion attack trick! Humph! You thought you found my heart
Is this your biggest weakness? Huh!" He looked at the ninth-level knight in front of him proudly and sneered: "Knight Captain Kaili! Since I can kill you once, then in the illusion, I can kill you a second time!
"
These holy knights didn't care what Hussein said at all. The middle-aged knight with a big beard was indeed one of the three major knight captains of the Holy Knights who had died, the ninth-level knight, Captain Kaili!
Immediately, as if they couldn't hear what Hussein said, Knight Commander Kaili raised his hand, and a dozen holy knights behind him raised their swords at the same time. On the sword's edge, fighting spirit flashed, and countless sword lights flashed simultaneously.
He stood up, and the dazzling sword energy was everywhere. For a moment, he didn't know how much sword energy was whizzing towards the place where Hussein and Dardaniel were standing...
"Ice cream cone...the latest volume of One Piece...let me see, Medusa, what else did you find in my memory..."
Du Wei hummed a tune, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked on the street, looking at the pedestrians, vehicles, and high-rise buildings around him...
It's really, really realistic...
With a smile on his face, Du Wei's eyes suddenly lit up and he saw a small shop on the roadside. He went in and bought a pack of cigarettes. With an excited expression on his face, he opened the package with trembling fingers and lit one for himself.
Take a deep breath...
This familiar and enjoyable taste made Du Wei almost cry at this moment.
Oh my God, I finally relive the smell of cigarettes.
The familiar, slightly spicy cigarette swirled in his lungs, and then slowly blew out from his nose. Du Wei sighed with enjoyment. The hoarse and low voice rang in his heart: "This
Growing things seems to be harmful to the body, right? Why do you enjoy such harmful things so much? "
"Oh, it seems you have learned a lot." Du Wei smiled lightly: "It is harmful, but many people cannot refuse it. There are too many examples in the world. Power, beauty, alcoholism, wealth...
Is everything completely harmless to people? It's just that most people are addicted to it. They know it's harmful, but they still can't give up the pleasure of enjoying it... This is human nature. Medusa,
This is human nature.”
"Human nature..." The hoarse voice sighed: "Human nature seems to be very complicated."
"At least it's more complicated than a snake's thinking." Du Wei curled his lips: "Okay. Thank you, at least I can taste the taste of cigarettes again... Next, let's see, you also helped me recall
Something?"
As Du Wei spoke, he threw the cigarette he had just taken two puffs on the ground and stamped it out with his foot.
"Don't you enjoy it? Why don't you enjoy it a little longer? You know, once you get out of this illusion, you will never experience it again."
Du Wei smiled. His eyes were deep but still clear: "Because I understand that these are just illusions. It took me a long time to forget these things, so I will not let myself be addicted to these things again.
inside."
"Is this also human nature?" Medusa asked.
"No, it's just a form of self-protection." Du Wei stretched out his hand and waved it. Soon, a ball of flame condensed in his hand.
Du Wei stood on this street and released his magic without any scruples... A ball of roaring flames popped out of his hand, and with a roar, a big hole was made in the road on the street.
, the raging flames immediately ignited the green trees on the roadside, and the glass windows of the store opposite also shattered in the explosion...
"I have to say that your illusion really looks like reality." Du Wei sneered: "Okay, now I've had enough fun, it's time to go back."
"Why, don't you enjoy this very much? You can stay here for a while as long as you want."
Du Wei's face began to show a sinister aura, and he quickly threw out a fireball with both hands. Soon, half the street was covered in the roar of flames! He destroyed the surrounding buildings unscrupulously, and then said coldly: "
Because I know these are all false. Moreover, the past is past, and reality is still reality. It would be foolish to just indulge in it and not get out. This principle is not only valid for humans. It also applies to you.
On her body...Her Majesty Queen Medusa."
The flames shot into the sky, and a fire hydrant on the roadside was triggered by the explosion. With a bang, the water column rushed up. The impact of water and fire caused raging smoke, collisions of vehicles on the street, and harsh brake sounds.
, pedestrians screamed and exclaimed...
"Okay, enough fun. If this is your test, let me tell you, human nature is more complicated than you think, Medusa." Du Wei's eyes were cold, and there was even a little fire on his fingertips.
, and then without hesitation shot towards the fountain in the middle of the square, where many onlookers gathered...
"I understand, then let's leave." Medusa finally spoke: "However, your friends are not as strong as you... Their current situation is much more dangerous than yours."
Hussein was breathing heavily. In the arena, the fighting spirit all over Hussein's body was like a golden flame. Under the reflection, his hair seemed to turn golden!
The piece of armor with the badge on his chest has been cut off, and the exposed parts are bloody and bloody, and the dots of blood on his face make his face look even more ferocious!
Knight Commander Kaili was standing in front of him, but it seemed that the situation was much better than him.
"Hussein! Is this all your strength?" Kaili looked down at Hussein with anger on his face, his sword still bleeding!
Why……
Hussein asked himself in his heart! Why am I not his opponent?
Ridiculous! This is really ridiculous! Obviously I am far stronger than him! Even if I face the combined attack of two knight commanders at the same time, I, Hussein, can still win!
Why, I feel...
Or am I still feeling guilty for killing them?
Looking at Knight Commander Kaili in front of him, Hussein felt that the courage and fighting spirit in his heart were fading away bit by bit...
It’s as if there is another self in my heart that is torturing my heart!
Kill him?
cannot!
How can I raise the sword in my hand to my respected teacher? How can I raise the sword in my hand to my brothers and companions who I have been with day and night?
The severe pain of tearing in the chest has made the knight unable to hold on, a dozen knights, plus the combined attack of a knight chief. Even the powerful Hussein is somewhat unable to support him!
But why can’t I bring up the murderous intention in my heart?
No... no! I can't kill my brother! How can I raise my butcher knife against my master and brother?
But... I want to survive? I want to live and publish everything to the public! Tell the world about the hypocrisy of all temples, including the hypocrisy of the so-called god! My mission makes me
Can't die here!
Then, I must kill these people in front of me...
Oh, no, they are dead! I am in a fantasy world...
But, facing them, how could I raise my butcher knife a second time? Facing these familiar faces...
Dardaniel had fallen to the ground, his breath was weak, and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Hussein! What are you waiting for! They are all phantoms! They are all fake! Fake!! Why don't you fight back!!"
"Shut up!" Hussein shouted angrily. In the sword aura in front of him, Knight Commander Kaili's sword had slashed at him again. Hussein snorted and raised his sword to block. Amidst a series of bursting sparks,
, he took seven or eight steps back in succession, and cracks appeared on the ground beneath his feet...
Maybe, maybe I might as well die here.
I shouldn't have lived until now! In order to survive for myself, I killed so many former brothers and companions... Am I very noble?
Ha ha!
Hahaha!!!
Du Wei opened his eyes and found himself lying on the ground.
This is a very big room, to be precise, it looks like a hall. There is a faint aroma in the air, which makes people feel very comfortable. It seems that there is a hint of warmth in the internal organs.
Du Wei turned over and sat up, stretched, then looked at the empty hall and said with a smile, "Thank you, I had a very nice dream."
In the empty room, Du Wei's voice even brought out a slight echo. Du Wei sighed and looked around. In such a large room, there was only a stone bed in the middle... It was simply a big bed.
It's just a stone platform.
Cold and lifeless.
"You should at least light a few lamps." Du Wei smiled, facing the air, as if talking to himself: "A place with light will at least look a little warmer, and... won't be so lonely."
"Loneliness...what is that?"
Medusa's question finally came through the air. It was still the same ugly, hoarse and low voice.
What is loneliness?
Du Wei lowered his head and thought for a while, then smiled.
"Loneliness is when you are alone and empty in your heart, but no one can share it with you. When your heart is empty and there is nothing. When everything in the world, joy, anger, sorrow, joy... everything
, seems to have nothing to do with you. In this world, no one will care about you, no one cares about you... You don't know why you live in this world? What should you do? What should you think... It seems that
Everything about you has nothing to do with this world... When you have these feelings, this is loneliness!"
Medusa sighed, her voice filled with a hint of exhaustion and weakness.
"If what you are talking about is 'loneliness'..." This terrifying existence that has become famous all over the world sighed in a soft voice:
