Chapter 787: Number two of the orphanage (1)
Looking at the person in the mechanical tree hole, Lu Xin’s eyes were also filled with confusion.
Immediately, he felt a wave of uncontrollable excitement.
The person in the tree hole in front of him could not tell how old he was. He had pale skin and a skinny body.
One by one, his ribs could be seen. His body was curled up in the narrow space inside the mechanical tree trunk. One could not even see how tall he was or how complete he looked. However, from the glasses he was wearing and the misty expression on his face, Lu Xin suddenly recalled some strange memories. Scene after scene, they were memories of the orphanage from a long time ago.
There was a boy with round glasses who always sat in the living room and watched TV. Sometimes, he would sit on a small bench in the corridor and look up at the moon in the sky. Sometimes, he would squat in front of the fish tank and look at the fish inside for a whole day …
.. She rarely saw him sleeping.
At that time, she didn’t sleep much, so she would often see him in the middle of the night.
Sometimes, they would sit together and watch TV quietly, sharing the same orange soda.
He didn’t like to talk much, and she didn’t like to talk much.
That was why they didn’t communicate much.
However, because the two of them didn’t sleep much, they were considered to have interacted more in the orphanage and had a deeper impression of each other.
He had disappeared for a long time.
But now that he saw the person in the mechanical tree hole, the memories that had been sealed away suddenly came back.
Lu Xin was silent for a long time before he replied in a low voice, “”No. 2 …”
“What are you doing here?”
The boy in the mechanical tree hole was his classmate from the orphanage, number two.
Lu Xin was caught completely off guard when he ran into him. For a moment, he even felt a little dizzy.
The entire world seemed unreal for a moment.
“It’s really you …”
After hearing Lu Xin’s answer, the boy in the mechanical tree finally confirmed Lu Xin’s identity.
His pale face revealed a happy expression, and he said, “”I’ve been here for a long time …”
I didn’t expect you to come. You are …
“.. Did you come here just to find me?”
His voice was soft and gentle, and his pale face seemed to have a touch of red.
“No.”
“I’m here for something else. I didn’t even know you were here,” Lu Xin said, shaking his head.
“But, if I knew you were here, I would have come to find you,” he said softly.
“Then what’s going on?”
At the same time, Xia Chong, who was on the platform, and the last black-robed priest who was hanging in the air, were also shocked when they saw Lu Xin talking quietly to the tree hole. They even felt endless panic.
They didn’t know what Lu Xin was up to, but one of them had long known, while the other had guessed how terrifying the thing inside the mechanical tree was.
Hence, Lu Xin’s reaction was far beyond their expectations.
At the same time, a dark red light suddenly flickered in the deep underground pit.
The red light was accompanied by an intense alarm.
At the same time, the dome of the deep underground pit let out a deep creak and immediately retreated to the sides, revealing three dark holes. The top was round, and metal cylinders sprayed with blue paint slowly poked their heads out.
The top of the three metal pillars also had a red light flashing.
One could even see yellow electronic numbers jumping rapidly on the cylinder.
“Twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen …”
The black-robed priest trembled in fear when he saw this.
He desperately wanted to escape, but the sealed space around him made him despair. He could only curse desperately, ” bastard, bastard, we’re ready to sacrifice ourselves. We’re already in the same room as the monster, and you still want to destroy us together? ”
you’ve made up your mind from the start to have the three of us stay here and accompany these two monsters to their deaths? ”
When summer bug saw the three cylinders, her expression changed drastically. “Hell’s umbrella?”
“What’s that?”
Lu Xin frowned as he was disturbed by the ear-piercing alarm that rang in the pit.
He had just met his former companion, and he had a lot to say.
In the mechanical tree hole, number two had a smile on his face.
It was as if he had heard Lu Xin’s answer and was feeling happy.
this is the most powerful plasma bomb in the Tinder, ” he answered softly. it’s specially designed to deal with aptitude users.
“If it’s such. large yield …”
He peeked out from the hole in the mechanical tree, took a look, and said, “”Anyone would die if it was released in such a small space.”
He then turned to Lu Xin and nodded seriously, “”Including you.”
“What?”
Lu Xin raised his head to look at the red glow of the bomb in the sky. He frowned slightly.
the fire seed is so ruthless. Why aren’t you leaving? ”
The shadows around Lu Xin became chaotic as his father shouted, “”Is this the time to chat with friends?”
“We can’t leave.”
Number 2 replied,”this place has been closed, so there’s no way to enter the abyss.” In terms of physical distance, the area was surrounded by the strongest alloy and steel plates as thick as 30 centimeters. There was also glass in the middle that mental power could not penetrate. No ability can find a way to escape in such a short time, so we will all die.”
He tilted his head slightly and looked at Lu Xin, “”Maybe you won’t die so completely.”
“But the part of you that can talk to me now will definitely die.”
“What nonsense are you saying?”
His father subconsciously roared,’are we just going to wait for death here …’ Eh?”
In the midst of his furious roar, he suddenly came to a realization. From the black shadow, he looked at number two in disbelief.
“You can see me?”
“Of course,”
Number 2 nodded, and a pale smile appeared on her face. She looked behind Lu Xin and said, ”
“Little seventeen, you’re still alive?”
Lu Xin’s younger sister was also dumbfounded by his gaze.
After a moment of shock, she suddenly hid behind Lu Xin and peeked at number two without a word.
“Seventeen is very shy now.”
“Of course, it could also be because you’re not wearing any clothes.”
Lu Xin explained on behalf of his sister before turning to number 2. however, since it’s so dangerous, it’s better to hide. The situation is so urgent, so the only way to leave is through the abyss. How is the abyss sealed? ”
“It’s me,” he said.
“They used a part of my body to seal it,” number 2 nodded.
“You?”
“Then why aren’t you undoing it?” Lu Xin asked, surprised.
“This …”
Number two was a little confused. I don’t know how. No one has taught me how to solve it. she said.
“Di, di, di.”
While Lu Xin and No. 2 were conversing, the countdown for the three hellumbrella plasma bullets was slowly coming to an end.
As the countdown entered the last five seconds, the number jumped and the alarm sounded, indicating danger.
The alarm that had been ringing in the deep underground pit connected with the sound, and the tense atmosphere made people’s hair stand on end.
The black-robed priest hanging in the air was in despair. He prayed in his last moments.
Xia Chong, who was on the broken platform, was anxiously shouting for Shan Bing as she raised her revolver at the door.
She seemed to want to use the revolver to blast the steel-sealed door open and leave.
“Hu …”
Lu Xin took a deep breath and turned to number two. “Think of a way.”
Number 2 hesitated for a moment before he nodded. “Alright, save all of them?”
“We don’t need the one hanging in the air,” Lu Xin said.
The moment their conversation ended, the countdown of the Hell’s umbrella plasma bomb on the dome suddenly reached zero.
The beeping sound disappeared, and the entire cylinder seemed to be silent for less than half a second.
Then, a huge blue electric arc suddenly covered the surface.
The blue electric arc extended downward like a giant Python.
The dazzling light instantly melted everything it came into contact with. The air was filled with anxiety and dryness.
However, before the blue electric arc could fill the entire space, No. 2 reached out from the mechanical tree and grabbed Lu Xin’s wrist. At the same time, the strange mechanical tree that he was hiding in started to emit a bright light.
Countless mechanical tentacles were pulled out from the human bodies around the mechanical monster, and they quickly swept towards the broken platform.
Summer bug, who was desperately bombarding the door with her revolver, was wrapped around her calf by the mechanical tentacles. She was then hung upside down and quickly pulled in the direction of the mechanical tree. If time were to slow down, one could still guess from the shape of her mouth that she was shouting, ”
“Release … Open … I … The … Leg …”
pipipipipipipi …
In the next moment, a huge blue electric arc instantly submerged the entire deep underground pit.
Whether it was the broken platform, the people in the deep pit, the black-robed priest hanging upside down in the air, the mechanical tentacles, or the electronic parts assembled into the strange mechanical tree, everything was vaporized or twisted. Even the glass fragments that fell to the ground were completely melted. The entire deep underground pit was filled with plasma, and the temperature had reached an immeasurable level.
However, at the same time, Lu Xin, Xia Chong, and the others disappeared into the deep pit.
“Hu …”
Lu Xin’s eyes flew open, and he found himself in a strange place.
He was standing on a floor.
The floor was not big, only a few square meters.
The strange thing was that the surrounding space was unusually spacious, but it was not the sun, moon, stars, or the streets of the city, but pieces of debris.
Some of these fragments were the afterglow of the setting sun, some were cities with dazzling lights, and some were green grasslands.
However, every scene was torn apart.
This was what it looked like when the normal world was torn apart and scattered in the air.
In between every scene, one could see a deep, bottomless darkness.
“Where is this place?”
Lu Xin asked softly after a moment.
Number two’s voice came from the side. He was sitting cross-legged on a fragment of a pale room.
He looked around quietly and said softly, “”This is God’s nightmare.”
