Chapter 730: Illusion
After playing for a whole day, Al returned to his rented house, said hello to his best brother from college who shared the rent, washed up, and lay on the bed ready to sleep.
But the moment Al lay down, that sense of incongruity resurfaced, causing Al to frown slightly.
Sitting up, Al kept thinking about the source of this sense of incongruity, and just as Al was about to grasp the sense of incongruity and find its source, the cell phone that was placed aside suddenly rang, interrupting Al train of thought.
Picking up the phone, Al looked at the messages sent by Wang Linlin on WeChat, and chatted with Wang Linlin until late at night. Al didn't know when he fell asleep. When he woke up early in the morning, he dressed as usual. Put on clothes, wash up, and go to the research institute to participate in the experiment with the instructor.
This research institute studies the potential of the human brain. As a researcher, Al is also working as the subject of the experiment. It is not that the research institute bullies the newcomer Al, but that half of the researchers in this research institute are Like Al, he is both a researcher and an experiment subject.
After a busy day, he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. Finally, when it was time to get off work, Al took off the brain wave detector on his head, changed his clothes, left the research institute, and went to the old place to meet Wang Linlin. Spent a romantic evening together, imagining the happy life after marriage in the future.
In this way, Al is enjoying the life of two points and one line. Although there is often a sense of incongruity that disturbs Al and makes him feel very uncomfortable, as if he has forgotten a lot of things, but The frequency of this sense of incongruity is getting lower and lower, which makes Al feel a little relieved.
That night, Al and Wang Linlin went home after eating together. Just as the two of them passed by an alley, three sleazy gangsters suddenly blocked them, trying to tease Wang Linlin. pull.
Seeing this, Al immediately stepped forward to protect Wang Linlin, but he was a researcher, and he was usually inactive, and there were three people on the other side. After all, Al still couldn't beat them. Couldn't get up from the ground at all.
But at this time, Al could only watch Wang Linlin being insulted by those three gangsters, and none of the passers-by offered a helping hand to them.
Looking at Wang Linlin who was crying in despair, Al slowly stretched out his hand, as if trying to grab something, and at the same time muttered to himself: "Don't, don't do it again, I don't want to experience it again, this kind of thing, once enough!"
This is similar to the subconscious voice falling, and the feeling of incongruity returned, and it was stronger than before.
after a long time,
Al stood up slowly. Although he still looked seriously injured, there was no pain on his face caused by the pain. He looked at the three punks with a cold expression, and thought , the injuries on his body recovered in an instant, and at the same time, the appearance of the Chinese people turned into that of the standard Western Continent race, and the clothes on his body changed from a shirt and jeans to a slim black wizard robe.
And at this moment, a Curro feather flew out of Al's arms, burned itself in front of Al, turned into ashes, and disappeared without a trace.
With a light wave of his hand, the three bullies who were bullying Wang Linlin exploded in an instant, turning into nothingness and disappearing without a trace.
Walking forward, Al stretched out his hand to hold Wang Linlin, comforting the woman he once liked to the core.
The former Wang Linlin tried her best to escape while being bullied by those three gangsters, but when she ran to the road, she encountered a speeding truck and died in a coma, even though the three gangsters were later arrested However, because of the power of his family, he was only sentenced to the crime of intentional wounding.
From then on, Wang Linlin's family hated Ji Dong in Al's previous life, and the mutual friends of the two always looked at him as if they were poor people, which made Ji Dong put all his energy on work. , and then took the initiative to become the experiencer of the final experimental project of the institute, or the guinea pig.
Al looked at Wang Linlin who was looking up at him, stretched out his hand and gently tidied Wang Linlin's hair, and whispered to Wang Linlin: "I used to love you very much, but now you are just an illusion, even though I am very reluctant to give up , but... please disappear!"
After the words were finished, Al stretched out his hand and pushed gently, Wang Linlin disappeared into nothingness just like those three punks.
Immediately afterwards, Al raised his head, and a huge mental force roared out, urging the second curse feather that flew out of Al's arms, turning into a blazing beam of light and soaring into the sky, It made the whole world collapse like broken glass.
"boom!"
The roar sounded in Al's ear, and the world of the previous earth shaped by Al's memory collapsed completely. Soon Al found himself lying on the edge of the ancient well in the canopy of the ancient curse tree, and in his hand was It is holding a wooden heart that seems to be entangled with tiny vines, and it is still beating.
"You are really amazing, you actually took out the heart of the ancient curse spirit tree. It seems that I really picked the right person."
As the voice fell, Al saw Curro coming in front of him, he stretched out his hand to pull Al up, praised him, and said: "Boy, you succeeded, now take the tree of the Ancient Curse Spirit Tree." Give me your heart, then our transaction will be successful, and I can completely lift the curse on you."
Looking at Curro, Al subconsciously handed out the heart of the Ancient Curse Spirit Tree in his hand, but at the moment when Curro reached out to take the heart of the Ancient Curse Spirit Tree, Al suddenly thought of something and held his hand Take it back directly.
Curro looked at Al's movements, his face changed suddenly, and he said, "Why don't you give me the heart of the ancient curse tree, do you mean that you want to violate the deal between the two of us?"
Hearing Curro's words, Al ignored him, but muttered to himself while thinking: "There seems to be something wrong, when did I get the heart of the Ancient Curse Tree, and why did it start from the beginning just now?" , The third feather in my arms has been burning. Originally, I thought that I had left the Ancient Curse Spirit Tree, so the feather lost its effect and started to burn on its own. But if this is the third feather warning me, So what if you warn me that I haven't escaped from the illusion?"
