Chapter 226: Neverland (6)
"Like, no." The shadow's voice couldn't tell the joy and anger, but Yi Huan still felt a hint of relief in it.
"That's right." Yi Huan suddenly turned his head, "I still have a lot of things to figure out, a lot of things, I don't mind explaining it after this." β
"Absolutely." The shadow shrugged as if learning to be easy, "I still have some time, and I can tell you everything I'm about to say." β
"Listen to what you say...... It seems that your time is running out, and it seems that the law of one's movies has become a theorem. Yi Huan blinked.
"After you master Neverland, your shadow will take my place, and your own things will always be easier to use than others, right?" The shadow shook his head, his silver eyes pulling out a band of light in the air with his movements, "There are still many magical places in Neverland, you will love it." β
"I hope so." Yi Huan's face pulled out a smile and sneered.
He tried to touch the hourglass, and then, as if it had come to life, the hourglass stuck to Yi Huan's hand, and he felt something sucked out of the palm of his hand, what seemed to be blood and a small amount of fat.
The dark red light on the hourglass was more intense, but the surrounding area of the cave became darker and darker, and the shadows had already blended with the shadows, and then, the cave gradually darkened, until the only remaining red light disappeared, and it was shrouded in darkness.
"Is this normal?" Yi Huan kept his original posture still, his eyes turned around, and asked at the shadow.
"Neverland is restarting. The lake in the island will disappear. The darkness will last for a while. When the light reverts, the transfer of authority is complete. It was the shadow that answered him, but in the darkness, Yi Huan couldn't find out where the shadow was.
"That's good." Yi Huan shrugged his shoulders and suddenly remembered a question, "I still have two companions outside." Yi Huan was stunned for a moment, and cast his puzzled gaze to the dark place, "What should they do?" β
"The cave will be fine. They can't go out, and I thought about it when I brought you here. The shadow's voice sounded behind Yi Huan, still so hoarse.
Yi Huan raised his eyebrows, turned around with a smile, and locked his gaze to the correct source of the voice, "Why can't I touch you." β
"No one can touch the shadow." The shadow seemed to say as it should be.
"But you just brought the three of us here." Yi Huan rolled his eyes and raised his voice.
"I'm running out of time, are you sure you want to waste that little time on these frivolous questions?" The shadow was a little helpless.
"But you just said you have a lot of time." Yi Huan chased after him, and it seemed that after he entered the cave, he became a lot more talkative.
This time, however, there was silence. The shadow wasn't talking.
Seeing this, Yi Huan shrugged his shoulders at the darkness with some boredom. "You've won, let's get down to business." He sighed and suddenly said, "I saw three books on the wall, and one sentence, what does that mean." β
"It's literal." Shadow said.
"I'm serious, don't play dumb riddles with me, it's not good." Yi Huan frowned.
The shadow was silent for a moment, as if organizing the language, and after a while, he continued, "There are three books that contain a lot of knowledge about wizards, and I only know one of them, the Book of Leaves, which is stored in the second world, and it is now on you. β
"On me?" Yi Huan was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and suddenly realized, "Oh...... You mean the book. He thought about it, and he could only feel that the origin of all things was the most suspicious.
"But...... Didn't you make these three books, why don't you know either? β
"No...... It's not us, the Book of Leaves is in the collection of the World Civilization Museum, and it was written to the Second World before Armageddon, and I don't know where the remaining two books are. β
"But what I can tell you is that these three books are from the war period of the last generation, not us." The shadow's voice flickered in the darkness, but Yi Huan still heard his explanation very clearly.
"What do you mean...... These three books were left over from the wars of the last dynasty of the First Age? Wouldn't that ...... Saved zΓ i for a long time? β
"That's right." Yi Huan seemed to see the shadow in the darkness and nodded, "It can be said that the history of the three of them exceeds the history of everything in the existing world, because it straddles two civilizations. β
"Okay...... Yi Huan took a deep breath, "I'm on a mission to find them?" β
"I didn't say that, we don't even know what those books are for, we just imprinted them into the second world as they were, and you get it?"
"The words of the Book of Leaves...... A little bit. Yi Huan shrugged his shoulders and shook his head very innocently, "It's probably just that." β
"Because that's what we deciphered, about the difference between magical creatures, humans and wizards, and a small amount of wizards' magical knowledge, you can say that you didn't understand anything, but just figured out what we left behind." The shadow mercilessly told a cruel truth.
"That's really...... I'm sorry. Yi Huan said a little speechlessly, "It seems that I really don't have any extraordinary talent, although I am a little smarter than ordinary people, so I have to ask a very classic question, why me?" β
"Why me? Why? Why. Yi Huan asked three times, but his tone was flat, and it seemed to be just an ordinary greeting.
"Maybe it's because of your obsession with the supernatural, maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe you're special, but I don't know why." The shadow replied faintly.
"Sounds like you must know something." Yi Huan exhaled, "What is special about me, because I don't have a soul, isn't it caused by you that I don't have a soul?" β
The shadow was silent again, and after a long time, he said, "What I said was special...... It means that you have some wizarding talents, and every human has this talent, but your potential is better. So many years. There are countless wizards who appear. You're not the first, and that's how we choose people. β
"But by no means does it mean that you don't have a soul, this question ...... I don't know, and I can't tell if you have a soul, but in this cave, you certainly do. β
"What do you mean?" Yi Huan frowned again and pursed his dry lips.
"This cave...... There is full energy, and the soul is also a type of energy. This has already been discussed in the First Age, so you will remain intact here, but not necessarily when you go out, just as I can speak here, and when I leave here, I lose the ability to speak. The shadow's faint voice once again revealed a secret on Neverland, but this did not make Yi Huan feel better, but became more melancholy.
"So...... What are the secrets of Neverland, tell them all at once. Yi Huan said with some unhappiness.
"It's too much. There are so many secrets in Neverland, as the hub of the Second World. It could be a simple island, and there are countless strange situations caused by the overflow of energy at every moment, but I don't need to worry about it, because these problems will be left to you later. β
Yi Huan sneered twice, and felt that it seemed a little naΓ―ve to be angry with a shadow, or a shadow that was about to disappear.
There was silence between the two, and after a while, it seemed that there was something strange in the darkness, and Yi Huan broke the silence first, "Aren't you okay?" He asked.
"It's coming." Shadow said, "Neverland's restart won't take too long, but it won't be soon, you ...... Don't like the dark? β
"No one likes the dark." Yi Huan said lightly, not considering that the shadow was also black.
"No...... You are afraid of it. β
Yi Humbled for a moment, and said with some disdain, "It's just because of some things when I was a child, but has anyone said that you are very annoying, but fortunately you are about to disappear." β
"No, you're the first to come to Neverland."
Yi Huan was silent, and the two fell into an eerie silence again, in a trance, time does not know how long it has been, it seems to be a century, it seems to be another minute.
I don't know if it was an hourglass or a cavern that shook, and a dark red light resurfaced in the darkness.
"The reboot is coming to an end." The shadow said lightly, "I already sense my weakness. β
"You'll be gone when the reboot is over?" Yi Huan asked rhetorically.
"Probably."
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry. After a pause, Yi Huan suddenly said.
"Nothing." The shadow was still hoarse, "I've been preparing for this day for a long time, and I've said everything I need to say, and my mission is done." β
"Remember, every human being has the potential to become a wizard, and in times of crisis, or on some special occasion, your body will have some throbbing, which is when your cells are awakening the memories of the previous generation."
"That's the way to become a wizard."
"Didn't you sue me if I didn't say sorry?" Yi Huan glanced at the shadow.
"No...... I'll say it. β
Yi Huan sighed, "Whatever you want." β
"I'm going to disappear, I can only rely on yourself in the future, how long has the second world existed, how long has the war started, remember, this war is far more cruel than you imagined, in the eyes of those aliens, human beings have no role, and there is no place of value, for them, only dead humans are good human beings."
"Be wary of those new humans, these angels in the world have strange abilities, if possible, find out the source of this ability and eradicate them completely."
"No matter how friendly they usually are, as soon as God comes, they will immediately point their butcher knives at humans, so ...... Remember, every new human is your enemy. β
"Every new human ...... It's all enemies! Goodbye, my compatriot. β
The shadow's voice became weaker and weaker, and after saying these two words, it seemed that he could no longer hold on, and as soon as he spoke, it became completely dark.
"Hmm...... Shadow? Yi Huan screamed tentatively, and ...... in the darkness There was no response.
"Shadows? β¦β¦ I'm really gone. Yi sighed faintly, as if to say goodbye to the shadow, "Goodbye." He whispered.
The light of the hourglass slowly emerged again, and in this dark cave, only Yi Huan's face could be seen, and it was only him. (To be continued......)
