MTL - Top Horror Novelist-Chapter 144 (1)
How many things can words change?
In a word, it can kill or save people.
Even though most people are not aware of the harm and pain that they say every day to others, or the comfort and redemption they bring, Chi Yiyin has already understood the truth in her hands as early as twelve years ago. The weight of this pen.
The world has always been in his hands—since he awakened his power, he has made a decision, this pen, to write for non-humans.
Hear their stories, feel their rage, and put their blood and tears into words.
Maybe one day someone will read these stories belonging to non-human beings and see their own shadow in them.
If I can bring him a little thinking, a little understanding and change, and save my life that was about to slide into the abyss...
That is also the fate between the inhuman and the other party.
It seems that Chi Yiyin didn't write that book in vain, and didn't let his time lose value.
When Chi Yiyin first chose to write his novel Filling a Room and mail it to his later editor, he was still an unknown student, far from being as famous as he was before he entered the game field.
The editor persuaded him, saying that a newcomer like him should not waste his time on such unpopular topics that no one wants to read.
After the editor read the manuscript of Chi Yiyin's first novel, she had a nightmare all night, dreaming of the protagonist in the book, and the horrible suffocation made her even have the illusion of dying once, until she woke up in the morning, Still have lingering fear.
She knew it was a good enough book.
But it was not born at the right time... No, such a subject has never had its own golden age.
It is too heavy, cruel, and the cold darkness is overwhelming, and there is no hope of escape.
But the wind outside is not like this.
People like light and happy things, find a little gap in the heavy oppression of real life, like to watch love, like to watch sweet and sweet, like exciting and invincible, like the pride brought by the sense of substitution of all beings bowing to themselves …
Who doesn't love family fun?
Who likes to walk in the dark for a long time without seeing any light, no matter how hard they try, they can't change their destiny, and finally they are changed by the world, smoothed their edges and corners with a smile, and become the person they hated the most when they were young.
The editor spoke earnestly, but Chi Yiyin nodded politely, and then continued with the next book.
He only said that his pen does not exist for ease, let alone for love stories.
He is... for those souls who have been wronged and angry in the dark, so that their stories can be seen again.
'It doesn't matter if no one sees it, and it doesn't matter if it is not understood. Those souls who endured humiliation and pain and died, lie outside my window and weep every night, telling me their stories and asking me why the world is so unfair. '
He smiled and told the editor: 'If I don't write, no one will know their story. And the next person, the next century...their fate will still be repeated. There will be another soul, telling me a similar story. '
‘There are too many light stories, since this is the case, let me do the heavy ones. '
Chi Yiyin declined the editor's kindness: "Even if people can't read it now, I believe that when they encounter the same thing and die with resentment, they will understand the meaning between the lines." And stories like this, I hope...the fewer of them the better. '
'If one day I have no more stories to write, no more souls to cry at my window, then that is the world I want to see. '
'Until then, let me be the narrator of those souls. I am...the last voice they left behind. '
Chi Yiyin did what he said.
As he said, he walked through countless fierce places, calmly in the stormy night, amidst the blood and tears of the ghost, and wrote the truth that belonged to the ghost into his pen stroke by stroke.
The unwillingness, anger, grievance, pain, hatred, obsession...all kinds of emotions of those ghosts were transformed into Chi Yiyin's power. After they unraveled their obsession, they were even more willing to stay by Chi Yiyin's side to protect his safety and witness him writing one story after another.
And Chi Yiyin's name was slowly discovered from the corner covered with spider webs.
The first person who bought books casually did not expect that he would be so frightened by a novel that he could not sleep at night. He was always paranoid, thinking that there were strange noises coming from his cabinet, the curtains would automatically move without wind, and the ornaments on the table would fall by themselves. Standing up again, there were indistinct footsteps outside the bedroom door, the old floor creaked, creaked...
Readers can only hide under the quilt, pull the corner of the quilt and peek outside, shivering.
The experience shared the next day attracted more people's attention, but the stern warning made curious people rush to find Chi Yiyin's books.
Then on that night, there were hundreds of people in the city who dared not close their eyes, and endured until dawn, even crying bitterly when the rooster crowed.
The experience brought by Chi Yiyin's books has been shared more and more. Curious people continue to follow, laughing at others as cowards, and howling ghosts and wolves at dawn...
Fear and curiosity are like snowflakes, and the bigger and bigger snowballs attract more people's attention.
And Chi Yiyin's name gradually became known, and finally became famous.
Everyone who has read Chi Yiyin's books said that it is a fear that follows everywhere, as if the opened pages are Pandora's magic box, releasing the evil spirits imprisoned inside, hiding in the corners of their homes, hiding in their own shadows inside…
Others said that they seemed to see their own destiny in the book.
— originally predetermined death.
They also have experiences or encounters similar to the protagonists in the book, and the whole book is like a prophetic letter, every future is clearly written in words, and they are developing according to what is written in the book.
This kind of reading experience is too real and very close, as if the protagonist who died tragically in the book is themselves.
Many people screamed in fright, but they still couldn't stop being attracted to continue watching.
Some people changed their approach because of this, and made their fate completely opposite to that of the protagonist in the book.
As for Chi Yiyin, he has an extra title.
Called, "God".
Although later readers thought that "Chi God" was a title derived from love, many people knew that this god...was saying that Chi Yiyin had the foresight and power like a god, which was enough to rewrite the fate of people. foresee the future.
But obviously, the lord of Tangjia City and the dignitaries didn't know about Chi Yiyin's past.
Even the audience before the live broadcast, many could not understand Chi Yiyin's actions.
[The other party is about to zoom in, the anchor took out a book? ? ? Want to write a last word? ]
[The anchor is too irresponsible! Don't you know that the dungeon is now associated with the game field? If you lose, many people will die. Can you take this responsibility! ]
[I go! Chi Yiyin is... what are you doing? Fighting, brother! Seriously! ]
But viewers who have watched Chi Yiyin's live broadcast before know that this is not the first time Chi Yiyin has produced a book.
They were not as excited as those who watched Chi Yiyin's live broadcast for the first time, they just held their beating hearts tightly and waited quietly.
They used to have similar ideas, but it turned out that those were props and powers belonging to Chi Yiyin. Although they couldn't understand what it was, they knew that it was because they were too low to see the top of the mountain .
There are also high-level players who want to use this to solve the mystery of Chi Yiyin's identity, to find out what his power is, and which title he is an awakener.
Everyone is planning and calculating for their own goals. Even though they know that there may be only the last 20 hours left in the game field, they still have no idea of unity, just for their own survival and their own interests.
Just like in the Crystal Palace on the ground, what Skye saw was true, and the reason why he was so chilled.
"Do you think it's amazing that you stood up and gave up life and death for everyone?"
The lord of Tangjia City stood on the trembling crystal ground, and the ground collapsed violently in front of him, forming a huge gap, unfathomable.
A bloody, cold wind blew from below, and there were crackling sounds from the dark and damp underground.
Countless corpses climbed along the cliffs, and returned from the deep foundation with buried resentment. The rotten hand bones firmly grasped the corner of the broken crystal, staggered, and slowly appeared in front of Chi Yiyin.
There are corpses hidden under every inch of the ground, and rotting corpses slapping and screaming behind every wall. From top to bottom, in all directions, countless corpses are airtightly surrounded, making it difficult to fly.
The city lord's eyes were cold, he looked at Chi Yiyin from a distance, and smiled proudly: "How do you want to get out of here?"
"No one will thank you for the life you originally wanted to protect. You think that your sacrifice and charge will bring them a bright future, but they will only resent why you gave them freedom and let them work hard together. I no longer have any black bread."
"Young man, I admire your ability, but I also pity your stupidity and innocence."
The city lord opened his arms suddenly, as if taking the whole world into his arms.
As a result, those rotting corpses rushed out of the abyss even more swiftly, roaring and rushing towards Chi Yiyin.
Looking at this scene, Chi Yiyin's eyes dimmed.
It seems that the previous guess was correct. The reason why the city lord would rush back here in a critical moment is because it can not only protect his wealth, but also give him strength.
— is not a power of technology.
That is the power composed of all people's resentment and death. It can not only make the Crystal Palace of All Nations appear miraculously, but also enable the city lord to control the dead people, so that those poor people who were oppressed and bullied by the rich and powerful will die Nor can they rest in peace, turning into gargoyles and rotting corpses, which in turn help the city lord persecute their former relatives, friends and acquaintances, making the city lord consolidate his control over Tangjia City.
They seem to be hateful, betraying their original alignment, and swinging the knife at their original companions in turn.
But in Chi Yiyin's eyes, they were also pitiful.
From birth to death, I have never dominated my own destiny, and cannot choose my own life.
They are just the screws of the powerful factories and farms, they will be replaced if they are broken, and they will be killed if they cannot produce value...
You can't even resist.
Those carrion corpses that rushed towards Chi Yiyin, couldn't even touch the corners of his clothes, were overturned several meters away by Li Sijun's turbulent aura, and fell into a pool of black and blue sticky flesh However, the imprisoned soul was freed from the rotting corpse, and drifted up to a higher sky.
Li Sijun took a step forward, Xuxu blocked Chi Yiyin behind his straight and strong shoulders, and at the same time blocked all the dangers that tried to hurt him.
The powerful force formed an invisible air wall, no matter how the rotting corpses impacted, they would not move at all. With the two of them as the center, an entire blank area was formed that was safe and sound.
The silence and chaos separated by a wall are like two completely different worlds.
Chi Yiyin raised her eyebrows, and glanced at Li Sijun, full of questions and inquiries.
Gu Xichao noticed the changed aura between the two of them. He curled his lips into a playful smile, propped his head on one hand, and looked up at the two of them sideways, ready to see how Li Sijun would explain.
But obviously, Li Sijun has no intention of concealing his identity and strength. He is frank and bright, allowing Chi Yiyin to look at him, even without any fluctuations in his eyebrows, and he has no sense of crisis that Chi Yiyin will see through his secrets. .
Rather, he was looking forward to the day when Chi Yiyin, relying on his own strength, discovered the secret belonging to Li Sijun.
His voice is actively searching for him, never forgetting him every minute, keeping it firmly in his heart and putting it in his eyes.
Li Sijun hooked his lips, and when he looked at the city lord, his eyes were cold and dangerous, but when he turned to look at Chi Yiyin, the temperature instantly softened, and he smiled softly.
"My Professor Chi wants to fulfill his promise to the students and change the world. How can I break my promise to Professor Chi?"
He smiled slightly, and it was so natural when he said it: "Yinyin and I agreed to be partners along the way and to entrust each other's trust. Since this is the case, of course we must divide the work and cooperate."
"I'm here to resolve the armed conflict, and Yinyin..."
Li Sijun bent over slightly, and when he looked sideways, his smiling eyes were so seductive: "You can do whatever you want, and no one can hinder your steps."
Chi Yiyin raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then chuckled: "Although I was talking about a temporary alliance at the time, but looking at it now, you really take our agreement very seriously, Li Sijun."
"But what should I do?"
He raised his head and looked at Li Sijun: "I didn't see your longing for the world from your eyes. Even in the most angry moment, your emotions didn't engulf you, or even affect you at all."
What is possessed under that excessive calmness is absolute rational indifference, which treats everyone equally.
And...a deep disappointment with the world.
I get angry because I still care, and despair because I once had hope.
But Chi Yiyin couldn't see anything on Li Sijun's body.
Only the calm indifference after sliding into the abyss.
It seems that from the very beginning, Li Sijun has been prepared to enjoy the wonderful scene of the destruction of the world in the best viewing seat.
"A person with such a clear understanding clearly does not have the same goal as me, so why is he willing to be my companion? Even..."
Chi Yiyin paused, and glanced around.
In the underground mirror palace, it can be called purgatory on earth.
The abyss cracked open on the ground, allowing the human sacrifice pillar that was once built to build miracles to reappear in front of people.
And those souls who still can't break free from the shackles of the powerful after death, are trapped in the carrion. Hatred and jealousy make them aggressive, wanting to pull all the lives they see into the deepest part of the ground, together with them. bury.
That is thousands of deaths. Since the construction of the Crystal Palace of All Nations three years ago... no, even since Tangjia City, all the dead people, their bones have become human sacrifice pillars, and their power has been continuously drawn to supply the Crystal Palace. .
And now, under the order of the city lord, they wanted to kill the intruders in the mirror palace.
Any player is too insignificant in the face of such a huge number of corpses who are not afraid of pain or death. The consumption of the wheel battle alone is enough to give them a headache, not to mention the closer they are to the human sacrifice pillar, the more they will be plundered.
One ebbs and another.
Even the player himself was forced to become a part of the Human Sacrifice Pillar, and he could only watch helplessly as his power became the enemy's, while he continued to be weak.
That sense of hopelessness...
It can even easily break people's psychology.
But such a scene did not appear on Li Sijun at all.
He seemed so comfortable that he was even in the mood to laugh and talk to Chi Yiyin, but he didn't look at the city lord who was supposed to be a strong enemy.
The city lord did not expect such a thing to happen, and was caught off guard.
Immediately, he flew into a rage, feeling that his authority had been provoked and roared angrily.
The entire underground Mirror Palace, together with the Crystal Palace of All Nations on the ground, were trembling.
The power of the Human Sacrifice Pillar was continuously stimulated and extracted, and even the air was densely filled with the breath of death, and the heavy coercion scattered into the air, making it hard to breathe.
Jingcha on the other side of the Palace of Mirrors also keenly sensed the changes in the battle situation, gritted his teeth and took on the heavy responsibility.
Skye in the Crystal Palace only felt deeply powerless, as if he had stepped into a swamp, unable to leave or even end.
Chi Yan slightly curled his lips, and the drooping eyelashes concealed the clear smile in his eyes.
"almost."
The time for it all to end... is coming.
But only in the blank area shrouded by invisible and powerful forces, Chi Yiyin still calmly and meticulously sees through every dignitary in the opposing camp, and at the same time, he does not let go of his "companion" in the camp.
"Li Sijun, you and I know very well that you are not someone who will casually become other people's companions. You are better at watching indifferently and soberly, rather than actively stepping into the battle situation and being in it."
Chi Yiyin was not covered by Li Sijun, and even the questions were so calm that it was frightening.
Those blue eyes stared straight at Li Sijun, as if wanting to look straight into the deepest part of his soul.
"What do you want, Li Sijun? Your purpose—why did you come here, what benefits will it bring you by being my companion?"
Chi Yiyin smiled and warned lightly: "Don't try to deceive, I am a better liar than anyone else, so I am more familiar with lies than anyone else."
But even if Chi Yiyin didn't warn, Li Sijun was not prepared to tell a lie.
— That would delay Chi Yiyin's understanding of his progress.
Besides...
Is there any lie that can deceive believers who have deceived the gods?
A king once asked the gods for wisdom, so that he could inform the country and subdue the demon god.
And Chi Yiyin, a believer in the gods...he doesn't need to ask for anything.
Because God will take the initiative to offer everything in the world to Him.
As a pious reward.
Li Sijun lowered his eyebrows slightly, and the smile in his golden brown eyes gradually grew stronger.
"Everything in the world is at my fingertips. There is no need for any planning. Conspiracy or deliberation will not become my way. I already own everything, and I have the power to destroy them."
"Yinyin, if there is anything that can become my goal..."
Li Sijun slowly stretched out his hand, gently brushed the broken hair on Chi Yiyin's sideburns, and looked at him seriously: "That's only you."
"You are an independent existence outside the consciousness of the gods and the world. You have never accepted the power of any party. Long before the process of destruction began, you have foreseen the future of destruction. You have seen clearly the sins buried under the golden statue, and you have seen through the soul. Awaken the power."
"—Your soul is shining brightly, and no one can pretend to ignore your light. Your strength comes from yourself, without the slightest influence from the outside world, firm and pure."
"That's why...you have the qualification to create a new world outside the world of gods."
Who am I here for?
—For the steadfast and pure soul, for the sobriety in ignorance, for the persistent light that gritted its teeth through pain and darkness.
My believer, he has traveled thousands of miles, through the sinister and ugly quagmire, trying to find me through the fog.
He is walking towards the abyss of world destruction, and the road he stepped on has already passed through the narrow gate.
At the end of the road is the Temple of Silence that has already sunk into the ground.
The gods had already closed their eyes, determined to let the destruction go.
But believers came from thousands of miles away, stepped into the temple, and lit a lamp for the god.
—The gods who have always given light, for the first time, brought light by other beings.
Then the **** opened his eyes and looked at his disciple.
For eight thousand years, kings and bishops knelt at the feet of the gods, begging for strength and armies, longing for wealth and ears of grain.
But they never only ask for it, never return it, and never do anything for the gods.
Only his followers, only Chi Yiyin...
Li Sijun laughed softly, his eyes were like the melting sun, the scorching temperature made Chi Yiyin a little unnatural, he frowned and took a step back, trying to distance himself from Li Sijun.
But it happened to bump into Li Sijun's arms, and he was wrapped into his arms.
"Chi Yiyin, I'm here for you."
Like, you came here for me.
You have traveled enough long and difficult roads, and the rest, I will walk to you.
There was a smile on Li Sijun's lips, but his expression was serious enough to prevent anyone from mistaking his thoughts.
Chi Yiyin slowly opened his eyes wide, and looked at Li Sijun in astonishment. Under the intense gaze of those golden brown eyes, his emotions were gradually aroused, and slowly formed a resonance, and his heart was strong in his chest. The beating, every beat has a pulsation that reaches the soul directly, and the blood rushes fiercely, washing the brain and soul.
Chi Yiyin has never been interested in human love, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand.
He is a novelist, even if he doesn't write, he still knows the weight of emotion and the beauty of romance when it appears. He understands every emotion in the world, enough to see through every soul.
It's just that he never thought that he would be in it one day.
Li Sijun...
This mysterious and dangerous figure is not simply saying that he came to find himself.
The deep and full emotions in those eyes, the palpitations that were bright and undisguised, clearly said—
Li Sijun, he is expressing his heart to himself.
The meaning behind those words... Li Sijun, unexpectedly, do you have such feelings for yourself?
Even Chi Yiyin never thought that the chess player on the opposite side of the chess game would play cards completely unreasonably.
His queen has swung her sword to cut off the king's head.
The king began to tell his heart? ? ?
Chi Yiyin: I think Li Sijun is crazy, and there is evidence - he doesn't want to win or lose, but wants to talk about feelings!
He is so weird!
But even though he knew all this clearly in his heart, Chi Yiyin's thinking was still running calmly and soberly, but Li Sijun's eyes were so bewitching that he even infected Chi Yiyin with his own emotions.
The distance between the two is close enough that even the sound of the beating heart overlaps.
poof.
poof...
For a moment, Chi Yiyin couldn't even tell whether it was her heart beating so violently, or Li Sijun's.
He has read the works of countless psychologists, understands the truth that ordinary people will not explore, clearly knows that the brain will act to deceive itself, and regards the compensatory emotions as his own truth.
- He knows it all.
It's just that he still can't maintain his independent indifference without being affected when he is in it.
Chi Yiyin opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but before he could say anything, his cheeks were slowly stained with color, and there was a touch of red at the end of his eyes, and his blue eyes were like the surface of a sea that was suddenly broken by a breeze, sparkling.
By the time he realized what he was thinking, it was already a few seconds later.
Chi Yiyin immediately raised her hand to cover her lips, quickly withdrew her gaze from Li Sijun, then broke free from Li Sijun's embrace, and stepped back.
Li Sijun also let go of his hand graciously, not planning to put too much pressure on Chi Yiyin.
He slowly stood up straight, put one hand in his pocket, and looked at Chi Yiyin with a smile on his lips. He was so cute by the appearance of his little believer, but he still had to maintain a calm face so as not to be too hot to scare him To his voice.
"cough."
Chi Yiyin gave a fake cough, and covered his lips with his slender palm. After calming down for a few seconds, the originally violently fluctuating eyes calmed down again.
He regained his composure, and when he looked up at Li Sijun again, he regained his composure as quickly as possible, suppressing the turbulent waves in his heart before.
All emotions that cannot be digested and dealt with immediately are shelved, and reason comes to dominate the soul again.
"Tangjia City has all kinds of sins, but what the city lord said just now is the fact of Tangjia City. The dead people will become their side's strength."
Chi Yiyin looked serious: "People from the tavern camp are still staying in the city, fighting with the sheriff and the guards. They won't admit defeat now, but no one can guarantee whether any of the hundreds of people will rebel out of selfishness, It even shakes the morale of the army."
"I can't wait for tomorrow's dawn."
Chi Yiyin turned around, looking at the city lord from afar with his cold eyes.
And the city lord also noticed his gaze, and slowly grinned a ferocious and determined smile.
Those corpses were still attacking uninterruptedly, and the mirror palace was crumbling.
Its magnitude was so great that even the powerful and powerful trembled and looked up in horror, fearing that the Palace of Mirrors would collapse and all of them would be buried here.
But for the city lord, someone tried to challenge his authority, and even refused to let go, which was enough to irritate him.
He doesn't care about the Mirror Palace or the Human Sacrifice Pillar now, he just wants to show Chi Yiyin his strength, make everyone fear him, and understand that he is the only master of Tangjia City.
Chi Yiyin, however, was not afraid, instead he curled his lips into a chuckle, and after confirming the status of the city lord, he had a plan in mind.
"It seems that the only way is to make all the dignitaries of Tangjia City disappear."
Staying in a safe pen for too long will gradually make people adapt to life under the eaves, and instead fear the strange world outside the door.
Therefore, even if the house is not full of food and clothing, and they have to be oppressed and reprimanded by others, and their lives are often in danger, and they can only survive by kneeling on the ground and bending over, they dare not break the chains and open the door to go out.
As for Chi Yiyin, he can see through people's thoughts, and can influence these people with words for a while, but he can't completely change everyone's thoughts in a moment.
So, he changed direction and no longer asked the people at the bottom of Tangjia City to do anything.
Instead, simply overturn the whole house.
Want to hide from the rain?
How about you without the dilapidated and leaky eaves? Unless you build your own roof and house with your own hands, you will only be exposed to wind and rain.
Fear of the outside world?
When all the walls disappear, where is the inside and which is the outside?
The world is vast and omnipresent, the sky outside the well is enough to fly, and the vast land will bear new ears of wheat, allowing people to recuperate, survive and multiply.
Since those people can't...
Then he will do it!
Chi Yiyin's eyes were firm, she took a step forward, and the book in her hand turned automatically without any wind, flipping the pages.
On the blank paper, new stories are waiting to be written.
The city lord had a vigilant expression at first, but when he met Chi Yiyin's eyes, he was shocked by the firmness and coldness in his eyes. He didn't know what kind of actions he would make and what powerful cards he was hiding.
But when he saw that what Chi Yiyin did was just take out a book, the city lord's fear turned into stunned ridicule, and then he raised his head and laughed.
"Ambitious young people keep saying that they want to change Tangjia City, and regard us as evil, thinking that they can defeat the evil dragon and rebuild a new world, so that those people will live a better life."
"But what did you do for it?"
The city lord pointed at the book in Chi Yiyin's hand sarcastically: "When you curse me, remember to write a few more words, don't be polite, after all, this is the only thing you can do, only incompetent resentment on paper, but everything changes No."
Chi Yiyin chuckled: "Is that so? You think I'm using paper and pen to complain pointlessly to vent my dissatisfaction, and then continue to endure it, don't you?"
He nodded, not being irritated by the city lord, but flatly affirming the other party: "You're right, most of the time, it's just what you said."
Those who lost their loved ones because of the interests of the factories and the powerful, many of them dared to close the door even when they were angry, and when the sheriff hadn't passed by, they whispered a few curses under the quilt to relieve their anger, and then comforted themselves Myself, continue to linger on.
Until relatives and acquaintances also encountered the same thing.
Until I made the same mistakes myself.
Until...the entire city is destroyed.
It is most people who will not stand up.
However, Chi Yiyin wasn't going to take it lightly, let alone have nothing to do with it, let it go.
Since Tangjia City has been rotten into the rhizome, then uproot the rotten place.
Only in this way can the new seed have room to grow until it grows into a new towering tree, enough to shelter all life, so that every person who needs help will not fail to reach out.
Under the disdainful gazes of the city lord and dignitaries, the pen in Chi Yiyin's hand had already dropped.
The moment the pen tip touches the paper, all space and time stand still.
The rotting corpse rushing over and screaming ferociously seemed to be replayed in slow motion, frozen frame by frame.
The dignitaries still had smug smiles on their faces, and they didn't pay attention to Chi Yiyin at all. Only Isalia raised her head from crying, realized something, and looked at Chi Yiyin in astonishment.
And the crystal and glass shards flying in the mirror palace, in the slow motion of the freeze frame, are like snowflakes.
When Chi Yiyin stretched out his hand, he could easily keep the snowflakes on his fingertips.
Li Sijun also handed him an olive branch, telling him that he could use his strength.
But Chi Yiyin just stared down at the book in his hand, the story waiting to be written surged in his chest, gushing out from the tip of the pen.
"City of Deathstroke".
The first word falls.
The brush strokes are fast and eloquent.
The originally blank page was gradually filled with thin gold handsome fonts, with silver hooks painted on iron, like a hovering dragon, roaring and tearing away all the illusions of cover, breaking free the chains that originally imprisoned freedom and soul.
The entire mirror palace is also changing rapidly.
The corpses that had pounced on Chi Yiyin disappeared in midair out of thin air, without even leaving a trace of powder, as clean as if they had never existed.
Whether it's under the floor, on the ceiling, behind the walls...
The figure of the rotting corpse quickly disappeared.
Even the power of the Human Sacrifice Pillar was shaken very quickly, and the foundation of the Crystal Palace of All Nations built up by thousands of corpses was already crumbling, and there was a louder than a loud roar.
The walls shook violently, and bricks and stones fell.
In the originally gorgeous and weird Mirror Palace, all the crystals and glass that blocked the line of sight were shattering, and scattered all over the ground with a crisp sound of shattering.
The figure of Beijing Tea Red Bird also appeared from a distance.
And the dignitaries and city lords of Tangjia City still stood behind the abyss, still smiling like that, frozen in place, but did not realize that the world had changed.
Only Isalia.
The girl who was shaken by Chi Yiyin and briefly saw the truth of this world, woke up from a long dream, opened her eyes for the first time, and saw the world without the rich and powerful.
"We were not born to live as slaves, and our souls should not be bound by anyone."
Chi Yiyin lowered his eyes and whispered.
He held the pen with his slender and beautiful fingers, and every word that fell on the paper was a knife swung at the darkness, overthrowing the tower that was pressing on Tangjia City.
The soul is screaming.
"We have come here to explore the world, see the truth, and be ourselves."
"We are not anyone's slaves, let alone anyone's money-making tools. The female workers who work day and night in the factories of the rich and powerful, the agricultural workers who dare not rest for a moment on the farm, and the tools that will be destroyed if they break..."
"I, should only be myself."
"—it's time to open your eyes and see your world."
"Fight for it one last time before it perishes—and for yourself, your soul, and your faith."
Characters emerged from the paper one by one, shimmering with golden light, and gradually floated around Chi Yiyin like fireflies, flying away into the distance.
Yingying Shimmer, although small, ignited a big fire in the mirror, illuminating the darkness.
Those rotting corpses seemed to have been pushed through the fog in front of them, and they finally saw the world clearly.
And... in the mirror, their own appearance.
The soul was stunned.
It never thought that it turned out that it had unknowingly become the existence it feared and hated the most.
How did this happen, why... did it become like this?
Spots of light float.
The soul unconsciously followed the shimmering light, and left with one deep foot and one shallow foot.
And the rotting body that was taken off was burned to nothing.
With the departure of the soul, the power of the Human Sacrifice Pillar is collapsing, and even the entire Tangjia City is undergoing tremendous changes.
The earth trembled.
The never-before-seen bell tower slowly rises from the ground, leaping above the Crystal Palace.
It is like a sword, passing through the beautiful Crystal Palace, rising from the ground and pointing straight to the sky.
