Chapter 232: Blood Cells
The guide should do his duty to help the boarders to reach the end of the ship together.
But that's not the case, from the very beginning of the meeting, Fog has been taking life or gray worms out of his hands, obviously as Fog said, he is not a guide, but a former guide.
Why did the facilitator become a former facilitator?
Wu was silent for a moment at Zhou Fan's question, he looked up at the blood ball and said, "Before answering you, let's go and take a look at it, and I'll explain it to you." ”
Zhou Fan's face was stunned and he also raised his head, is it related to blood cells?
Zhou Fan's body became lighter, and he couldn't help but float up.
The fog also drifted upwards.
Zhou Fan can fly, naturally it is foggy hands and feet.
The bodies of the two kept rising, and Zhou Fan didn't know how long he had been flying, and it felt like a hundred years and thousands of years.
Blood cells that seem to be close are actually not as close as they imagined, they are very far away.
But no matter how far away, there were times when they approached, until the wooden boat under their feet became as small as an ant, and the bodies of the two stopped floating upward.
Zhou Fan looked up at the blood ball close at hand, his pupils contracted, and what he saw was a dense blood-colored corpse.
The blood cells were composed of countless corpses, and those lead-ash craters were gray mist whirlpools, each of which was as vast as a sea.
Zhou Fan, who was nearby, could only see part of the scene of blood cells, the corpses that were glued together, and their hands, feet, and heads were already tangled and difficult to distinguish.
He couldn't imagine how many human corpses would be needed to form such a large blood cell, which would be hundreds of millions.
Zhou Fan could smell the rich bloody breath coming from the blood cells, his stomach acid was surging, and he wanted to vomit a little.
Zhou Fan looked at the fog hanging beside him, his face turned a little blue: "What is this ......?"
"These are the bodies of the boarders, except for the small number of boarders who jumped into the river to feed the fish, all those who failed and died in the outside world are here. Fog said calmly.
Zhou Fan just felt creepy, he had long known that before him, there might be a lot of boarders, but who would have thought that there would be so many boarders......
His heart trembled, all these billions of boarders had failed, so he ......
Zhou Fan felt that there was a great fear enveloping him.
"Once you die, you come back here and become part of the blood cells, which weren't that big before I became a guide, but over the years, it's getting bigger and bigger. There was a hint of emotion on Mist's face, he had forgotten how many years had passed, "As far as I know, the blood cell is not only corpses, but also has something inside. ”
"What is it?" Zhou Fan asked with a cold face.
"I don't know. Fog frowned slightly, "The things inside are one with the ship, and it provides the ship with the power to move forward." ”
"Won't the outside world know about the death of such a boarder?" Zhou Fan couldn't help but ask, didn't anyone outside know about the existence of the Gray River space?
There was a mocking look on Mist's face: "In front of the ship, neither you nor I are too small, and its strength is not something you and I can guess." ”
"Boat?"
"We, the guides, don't know what it is, we can only call it a ship. "To go back to your question, once a person on board a ship dies and becomes part of the blood cell, all memories of him from the outside world will be erased. ”
"You probably haven't mentioned the existence of the Grey River space to the outside world, otherwise you would have been erased. ”
Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, out of some cautious thoughts, he really didn't dare to mention the existence of the gray river space to anyone, and he didn't expect that the ship would be so powerful that all the memories of the boarder in the outside world would be erased, and the boarder would be as if he didn't exist in the world.
What the hell is this ship?
It's just that this question, the fog can't answer Zhou Fan.
"What is its purpose, if it is to reach the end, then what awaits us?" Zhou Fan looked at his feet, and what he could see under his feet was the endless gray river with thin gray mist, and he couldn't see any land islands.
"I don't know, no guide will know. Misty asked with a sneer, "It just wants you boarders to keep helping it move forward, and if it fails, it will go back to square one, and the cycle will go on and on, seemingly endless." ”
"It hasn't reached the end since I became a guide, and I don't think it has ever been, so no one knows what the ship will have at the end, and what awaits us when we get there?"
"Or maybe there's no end at all, it's just a hoax. ”
"What about the guides? You said that the blood cells existed before you became the guide, and the guides will continue to increase?" Zhou Fan didn't know what to ask, he couldn't help but ask.
"Guides will also die......," Mist said after a moment of silence, "the old guides die, and new ones are born." ”
"But the death of the guide is not because of the end of life, as long as the ship is there, the guide will not die, the life of the guide is endless, they will die, it is they who give up and choose to get off the ship, and the only end of getting off the ship is death. ”
"Why do you want to give up getting off the boat?" Zhou Fan asked in a daze.
There was a burst of despair on Wu's face, and he said a little tiredly: "I will get off the boat, that's because there is no hope." ”
There is no hope? Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, and he vaguely thought of the reason when he contacted the blood ball composed of the corpses of the people who boarded the ship.
"When the guide appeared on the ship, he lost most of his memories, and only remembered a small number of memories that did not have much meaning, such as remembering the martial arts he had learned, the swords he had used before, etc. ”
"But we don't even know who we are, we don't have memories of before we got on the ship, it confesses to us, the guides, that we got on the ship voluntarily, and we agree to the erasure of our memories. Fog sighed.
"The purpose of our boarding is to guide the boarders to the finish line, and it promises us that if we, the guides, help the boarders to reach the finish line, it will give us what we want and let us disembark. ”
"Other than that, the guide wants to get off the boat and has a dead end. ”
"What if it's lying to you?" Zhou Fan couldn't help but ask.
"We have made a heavenly oath with it, a promise that I have never seen any living creature break. Fog said coldly.
"But it's more powerful than I imagined, and there may be a way to avoid it, but you have to know...... We can't leave this ship, so we have to believe. ”
Zhou Fan was silent, they really had to believe, otherwise they had to give up getting off the boat.
"But......" Mist looked up at the corpses of the Blood Cells, his face mocking, "If you look at the corpses that have failed, you know that we have failed more times than you can count. ”
"I can't remember how many times I've failed, a new guide may be patient with the boarders, but if he fails so many times, he will become impatient and unwilling to go to the trouble of guiding you boarders. ”
