Did the worm king lose his horse today [Interstellar]

It’s still Shao Yufeng’s voice: “why is this… what’s behind that door?”

"I don't know." Celia was also very puzzled, "The swarm died here, and I can't see what happened afterwards."

The last thing Gu Jiurong saw through her perspective was Chengshan's corpses crawling towards the door, and they were still leaning forward when they died.

Although the people of the Fallen Empire are spiritual bodies, they still leave some fragments and afterimages after death. Those creatures with human heads, like snakes with white tails entangled together, their bodies have turned translucent dead white, There are gray spots mixed in, and the eight eyes that can reflect the stars have lost their luster forever.

No matter how the mountain of corpses piled up, the star gate stood still.

What are they trying to do?open this door?

Before Gu Jiurong could react, the world around him was distorted again.

Unlike the conversation this time, vague memories began to flood his mind.He saw Celia and Shao Yufeng looking for how to use the ring again and again.

This is the sacred object they stole from the fallen empire.This naturally aroused the fury of the Fallen Empire, but I don't know how they cooperated, and they didn't let the Fallen Empire know who the thief was.

That's why they have enough time to study.

But the Fallen Empire is not something to be fooled with after all, and soon the Fallen Team found out the whereabouts of the ring from clues.

"I know... I finally know." After countless scenes changed, Shao Yufeng's voice came from Gu Jiurong's mind, trembling, excited and unbelievable, "You put your spiritual power into this ring ..."

"Spiritual power? Is my worm king consciousness?"

"Correct."

"No response. We've tried that before."

"More, put more spirit into it! It's like when you control all the Zerg at the same time!"

"...is it... melting?"

"Sure enough, only you have the same powerful spiritual power as the Fallen Empire. I never thought that they activated the ring so easily." Shao Yufeng's speech became faster and faster, "You know what this means Is it?! It is absolutely impossible for the individuals of the Fallen Empire to surpass your spiritual power. Judging from their experimental literature, even if they gather all the spiritual power, they still have flaws, far inferior to your sea of ​​consciousness... you are He is the real owner of this ring!"

Celia turned her head: "So what should I do?"

"Put it on my heart." Shao Yufeng took a deep breath, "I want...I want to be with you forever."

Gu Jiurong's expression moved slightly, and suddenly all the scenes disappeared, and a sharp stabbing pain came from his head.

The stinging pain came very suddenly, as if the brain had been chopped open.He was sweating profusely, squatting down tremblingly, and his eyes turned black in bursts.

The time of the screen jumped back again, and he saw the overwhelming fallen fleet in Celia's consciousness.Under them, there are hundreds of millions of black swarms roaring, their bodies burning with a fiery red light, at first glance it looks like lava rolling, hell opening.

They came after all, with a cold killing intent towards the thieves, and a fury towards those who challenged their status.

The pain in my head has eased, but it still hurts throbbing.Gu Jiurong remembered that it was these battles with the Corrupted Fleet that greatly weakened Celia's insect swarm, which led to the failure of the subsequent battle with the Alliance Fleet, which led to her death.

But before stealing the ring, how could Celia not know the pros and cons?

No matter how rough the beasts, no matter how greedy the bug king, no matter how crazy the pirates are, they still have the instinct to avoid enemies that are countless times stronger than them.

Gu Jiurong would not have understood it before, but he understands it now.Sometimes as long as there is a little hope, they will rush forward like moths to the flame until they are turned into ashes.

The dull pain in his head swept over again.

The eyes were plunged into darkness, and the last words Gu Jiurong could hear were Shao Yufeng's weak voice: "Return this ring to you first."

"..."

"Take it, and you can use it on me in the future. In case...in case something happens, you can give it to the next person." He coughed twice, "It's hurting you, even if you put it on now If the ring is returned, they will not stop."

"I'm not afraid of them," said Celia.

Shao Yufeng smiled: "I know. You are such a brave girl." He kissed Celia's forehead, "You will definitely find the true power of this ring. Don't worry, I don't plan to die now, Just to be on the safe side."

The stabbing pain was going to pierce Gu Jiurong's head, his consciousness was gradually receding, sometimes there were twisted streets in front of him, sometimes there were thousands of fallen fleets, they were spinning and blending together, this time and space is collapsing rapidly.

In the end, there was only one sentence that Celia said softly: "I... want to go behind that star gate."

Then there was complete silence.

……

"Gu Jiurong... Gu Jiurong!" Gu Jiurong felt something pat on his face, and his shoulders were also shaken.

That thing came very annoyingly, Gu Jiurong got impatient and pushed it away with a frown.Then he heard Gu Yue's surprised voice: "You're awake!"

With heavy eyelids, it took Gu Jiurong a long time to fully regain consciousness.He barely opened his eyes, and saw Gu Yue's relieved face.

"How long...how long have I been unconscious?" Gu Jiurong asked.

"Three days." Gu Yue said, "I didn't respond to whatever I called you before, but only now did I respond. Are you feeling unwell now?"

Gu Jiurong leaned against the wall and sat up: "It's okay..." The memory of the past is still surging, and after a month or two of his past, it's only been a few days here.

So he had some doubts: Wasn't the past really just a dream?Was it not his imagination in a coma?

He subconsciously looked towards the bed. There were two rings on the bedside table. One was his own and the other was given to him by the white dove.The two rings, one white and one black, had a beautiful, time-honored luster, and they were a perfect match.

He asked Gu Yue: "Do you remember... Who did you meet in the garden?"

Gu Yue froze for a moment, then touched his forehead with some worry: "Are you okay?"

Gu Jiurong waved his hand away and rolled his eyes: "I'm fine." He hesitated again, and explained the ins and outs of the matter to Gu Yue.

Gu Yue pondered for a moment: "It seems that Ye Zhengqing's theory is correct... He said that you have entered another space, which is very close to reality, similar to an illusion, but you can't do things that change the space. So you mean, you return to another space. Went to the past and saw me in the garden."

"Well. You're still holding a book."

Gu Yue said: "I did read that book a lot at that time, but I really don't remember whether anyone came there, it was too long ago. But it sounds too scary to go back to the past. It's hard to imagine why the Fallen Empire would be confined if it possessed such power."

Gu Jiurong said: "There is another star gate inside the star gate. Many people of fallen empires died in front of it. It seems that something happened when they created or used this star gate. There is no way Escaped. I saw it through Celia's consciousness."

Gu Yue frowned slightly, feeling displeased with the name, but he didn't say anything after all.

He and Gu Jiurong said: "That is to say, our illusion is just an illusion in the star gate. If we break it and continue forward, we can find the other star gate."

"I don't know." Gu Jiurong said, "I can't be sure, this is the same stargate that Celia saw, because it is far away from the earth."

"If it has the speed it showed when it devoured us, then it is not impossible to move to this star field."

"maybe."

"It's very likely that your ring is the key to this star gate." Gu Yue said, "If it's as you said, Baige won't die after having this silver-white ring."

"That's why Shao Yufeng wanted it." Gu Jiurong stared at Gu Yue, his mind was full of him standing in the garden with his head down reading.

Gu Yue finally noticed his unusual gaze: "You... what's wrong?"

Gu Jiurong has always been a straightforward person, and just wanted to tell Gu Yue that I accepted your confession that day.When the words came to his lips, they suddenly stuck, and he remembered that Gu Yue hadn't accepted his identity yet.Now, although they are no different from usual, who knows what decision Gu Yue will make after leaving this illusion.

The so-called emotion can always make a person cringe, impulsive and brave.

Just as Celia has done many irrational things in her life.

Provoking fallen empires, stealing their holy relics, acting on emotions, knowing that things were weird, he still went to Shao Yufeng's side, and finally died under the Star Destroyer weapon.

Emotion is the Zerg's biggest obstacle.It is a deadly and sweet poison, a tenderness that is carefully hidden and only shown to one person. When it is fierce, it is more rampant than the sea of ​​insects, and when it is surging, it is stronger than hundreds of millions of fallen empires.It takes everyone captive.

So he thought for a long time, and didn't know what to do, so he stretched out his tail and said, "Touch my tail."

Gu Yue: "..." His gaze was attracted uncontrollably again, and he moved his fingers, apparently unable to resist this temptation.

Wagging the tip of the tail, Gu Jiurong got his wish in the end, put his tail on Gu Yue's knee, and enjoyed the joy of being scratched a few times by the way.

He looked at Gu Yue with bright eyes: "Would you like to sleep with me tonight?"

Gu Yue: "Not good."

"I finally came back." Gu Jiurong said, his tail drooped limply immediately.

Gu Yue: "...just one night, really just one night."

"Okay." Gu Jiurong put his arms around his neck and rubbed the smell, satisfied.

That night, he lay on Gu Yue's bed, holding the silver ring to look at it.Like Celia, he tried to suppress all the consciousness of the insect king and poured it into the small metal ring.

At first the ring didn't respond at all, but under the impact of the vast spiritual force, there was some strange sound coming from it.

Tick, tick, tick.

Tick, tick, tick.

That was the sound that Gu Jiurong heard in the star gate.

Then the ring slowly melted in his hand, turning into a pool of bright silver liquid suspended in the air.

This feeling is amazing, and the liquid can also move its position with Gu Jiurong's mental transformation.It's just that it's very nerve-wracking to control, and Gu Jiurong felt tired after a while.

It is still difficult for the insect king to control, not to mention the corrupted people whose mental strength is not as good as his.When Celia stole the ring at that time, she discovered a lot of crystals used by the Fallen Empire to strengthen the gathering of spiritual power.Fallen Empire tried to use this method to fully activate it.

Celia melted the silver-white liquid into Shao Yufeng's heart, so Shao Yufeng got this power.

As for whether he has obtained eternal life because of this, no one knows.But the phenomenon on Baige perfectly explained that Shao Yufeng's theory was correct.

The liquid danced around Gu Jiurong's fingers, and he suddenly thought that he should give this thing to Gu Yue.In this way, Gu Yue, like Shao Yufeng, will no longer be limited by the human lifespan, and he will not be lonely on his interstellar journey in the future.

The thing in his hand can indeed cut off time.

The heartbeat became very fast, and even every breath was filled with uncontrollable anticipation.

The door rang, but Gu Jiurong was so focused on the ring that he didn't notice that Gu Yue was coming.He was startled, withdrew his mental power, and the liquid immediately changed back to the shape of the ring, rolling off the bed.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yue didn't see the scene just now.

"It's okay." Gu Jiurong put the ring back on the bed, "Just study it." For some reason, he didn't tell Gu Yue that only the consciousness of the insect king can fully activate the ring.

Gu Yue didn't care about his abnormality either.In fact, his face was a little ugly: "I discussed with Gu Xingyan and the others today, and found that when the Alliance soldiers fell into the illusion of a fallen empire, they did do something. That thing may explain why Celia was able to break through one by one. fantasy."

"what?"

"The place where the Alliance fighters fell was very similar to ours. It was also a familiar scene. There was also an old man who had been dead for many years. At first they thought that the man was finally found after disappearing, and then gradually discovered something was wrong just like us. , and found that the man was dying every day."

He continued: "Being trapped in this weird scene for a long time, a person has mental problems, and one day he killed the dead person."

Gu Jiurong said, "And then?"

"Then it didn't take long for the alliance to receive their distress signal. The signal that had been blocked all the time seemed to become clear after that point of time. I remembered that you told me that every time I came to an illusion, Celia almost put Everyone inside was killed. The only difference between those fighters and her is that they chose to leave the star gate instead of continuing on.”

Gu Jiurong was stunned: "So you mean, as long as the people in the illusion die, we can break the illusion?"

"This is just speculation, although Gu Xingyan and I feel that this is probably the only way we are pursuing." Gu Yue said, "The previous alliance fighters could only kill one person to spread the signal. And this false star All, the only one who can correspond to their dead person is..."

Xu Feiyang.

He didn't say the name.Both understood what that meant.

Maybe if you kill Xu Feiyang, you can leave here.

The author has something to say: I always feel that the day of leaving the car is getting closer...
