Did the worm king lose his horse today [Interstellar]

Every night the nightmare comes more ferociously, and breaking free from an illusion is only a small part of it.

The white light appeared a few more times, and each time the emotion became more vivid, more like a human being——

Their condensed mental bodies at this moment are extremely susceptible to influence, and the communication with Gu Yue and Gu Jiurong is constantly changing them.In the end, their memories even became chaotic. At one moment they thought they were from the Star Capital and at the other moment they remembered the Fallen Empire. The light was constantly fluctuating between the entanglements. They were already very weak, and everything was on the verge of collapse.

In the chaos, Gu Jiurong could hear the loud sound of the pointer more and more.

Every time midnight passed, the trembling grand bell rang, almost washing away the soul of the whole body.

Gu Yue didn't have such a powerful spiritual sea, so he couldn't feel the impact.Gu Jiurong has always wanted to hide it from Gu Yue, but the daily mental decline is still too obvious.Finally, after another day of nightmares, he opened his eyes tiredly, and saw Gu Yue sitting beside his bed.

There is still howling wind and snow outside, and huge buildings that have never been seen before. This extremely cold civilization was torn apart by the swarm of insects again, and the illusion was broken.

Gu Jiurong wanted to sit up and hide his discomfort.

But Gu Yue said: "You slept for two days. What happened?"

"I..." Gu Jiurong sat up, his head really hurt, and the sound of the clock still seemed to be lingering.The swarm outside called out to him anxiously, to make sure he was all right.

"Be honest with me," Gu Yue's eyes darkened, but what he said was almost pleading, "This is an area that I can't understand at all."

Gu Jiurong had never seen Gu Yue like this before.

It was at this moment that he suddenly realized that Gu Yue must have noticed something wrong with him long ago, but from his point of view, he didn't know the reason at all.

Gu Jiurong fights fiercely in every dream, and is confident that he can win, so his fighting spirit never retreats without fear, but what Gu Yue can see is only him who is getting weaker by the day.

Seeing that Gu Jiurong didn't speak, Gu Yue didn't ask any more questions, but just rubbed his head: "...It's fine as long as it's okay. I believe you have a sense of proportion, but I still hope..."

"I'll tell you now." Gu Jiurong interrupted Gu Yue, stepped forward to rub against him, "I'll tell you from beginning to end."

He told Gu Yue the deep dreams every night, the endless pointer sounds, the environment he had just experienced, and everything that Bai Guang told him.

Gu Yue remained silent, and after listening, he said: "If you fail, for example, if you are swallowed by it in a certain dream, what will happen?"

"I don't know." Gu Jiurong said, "Maybe they will be trapped here."

Gu Yue said: "That's the best result." He didn't mention another possibility, the death of a life is not uncommon here.Finally, he patted Gu Jiurong on the shoulder: "If something like this happens in the future, tell me, I won't stop you from doing anything, I just don't want if something really happens, I don't even have the direction to remedy it .”

Gu Jiurong shook the tip of his tail: "It won't happen next time. If you have something to do after that, please tell me."

Gu Yue was stunned for a moment: "When did I not..."

"It's always been like this." Gu Jiurong was still dissatisfied when this topic was brought up, and he rolled his eyes, "Do you think about how many things you have told me since we first met? Every time you want to push me away .”

Gu Yue thought about it for a while, and coughed guiltyly: "Isn't this before...it won't happen again in the future, and I promised to fight side by side with you."

But that night Gu Jiurong was dragged to sleep next to Gu Yue.Gu Yue said as a matter of course: "Since you have been entangled with it every night, then I must watch by your side."

Gu Jiurong wagged his tail suspiciously.

Gu Yue: "...don't show me such doubting eyes. Of course, if you want to do something so that you can spend the night soberly, I won't care." He smiled lowly and rubbed Gu Jiurong's head .

With Gu Yue's company on this day, Gu Jiurong's breath and body temperature made Gu Jiurong feel very at ease, but the darkness that should be in the dream has not weakened in the slightest.

He heard howling and screaming, and when these emotions were expressed with pure spiritual power, they became more vivid and sharp, making it impossible to avoid.

Bai Guang mentioned this—the resentment comes from the sentient beings who have been imprisoned by the star gate for thousands of years, and of course the thousands of fallen people themselves.The special spiritual substance seems to be constantly nurturing these spiritual powers, so that he can have a steady stream of power and energy.

As a result, screams and wailing are everywhere every day, and various emotions are constantly impacting.

Gu Jiurong was not affected by the negative emotions involved. The innate genes allowed the Zerg to cheer and hunt among the bloody corpses, so naturally they would not be afraid of the so-called resentment.It's just that the spiritual power is still growing.

The black tide surged up, and in this night's dream, Gu Jiurong stood under the black, vortex-like clouds, alone, watching the thousands of meters of waves crashing down on him, almost replacing the sky.Every inch of spray is the face of a different life form, an existence that the swarm has slaughtered before, and when the fangs are bared, there is a strange luster in the eyes——

Gu Jiurong has never seen this kind of luster. At first glance, for some reason, it always reminds people of the reflection on the metal pointer. It is cold and rusty, changing with the passage of every millisecond, but Every time I want to stare at it, it disappears.

The whole earth trembled, and Gu Jiurong seemed to hear the sound of white light vaguely.It said, "It's time." The feeble voice was like a sigh.The strong wind lifted his clothes, and the bell rang. It was already a scene of doomsday. The unknown judge swung his sickle at him furiously, and died if he did not fight.

Gu Jiurong's spiritual power is strong, but he still looks small in front of the spirit accumulated by countless lives, and the feeling of oppression is inevitable.

He just looked up at the huge waves that were about to engulf him. Although it was dark all around, he seemed to see the bright starry sky through the waves.

The world where he and Gu Yue are going.

The ring was burning hot on his chest, so the savage killing intent and vitality of the Zerg boiled in his chest, and the consciousness of thousands of bugs roared together for a moment. Gu Jiurong's eyes were scarlet, shining brightly under the shadow of the huge waves.

……

During the sleep next to Gu Yue, Gu Jiurong slept for a long time.

When he woke up again, there was a hot cup of tea beside the bed.

Gu Yue was sitting on the edge of the bed, squinting his eyes and resting just like usual.But Gu Jiurong woke up as soon as there was any movement. He looked like he hadn't slept for a few days, his energy was not good, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"..." Gu Jiurong asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

Gu Yue didn't answer, but leaned forward and hugged him.He had never used so much strength, and Gu Jiurong almost felt suffocated, but what accompanied him was the ease and relief of finally breaking free from the nightmare.

The tail rubbed against Gu Yue's back, Gu Jiurong said, "I'm back, I'm fine."

"...Three months." Gu Yue's voice was hoarse, "You slept for three months."

Gu Jiurong was stunned.Although the time in the dream was long, he thought it was a few days at most.Gu Yue hugged him even tighter, and said in a low voice, "I will never be able to help you with this kind of matter."

Gu Jiurong smiled: "I'm good at fighting, I'm sure I won't lose, you can just rest assured." Seeing that Gu Yue didn't respond, he didn't know what to say after thinking about it for a long time, and there is no effective way to comfort him, " I...then I will kiss you."

He quickly kissed Gu Yue.

Gu Yue raised his eyes to look at him, his expression was quite relaxed.Gu Jiurong's eyes lit up, and he immediately chased after the victory: "I, I can touch my wings for you too, look... oh, ok, ok, don't play with me, I really want to take it back, don't touch it, you're a pervert !"

He was scared back into the quilt by the extremely eager Gu Yue, and wrapped him tightly.

In the dream, Gu Jiurong tore apart the mighty waves, and the night after that he would not have the power of a nightmare.As they passed through the next chasm, everything was shrouded in white light.

There was no sound, no spiritual power, and the swarms of insects ran around without any mystery, only pure white light.

Here is pure nothingness.

The crack behind him snapped shut, cutting off the last escape route.In the silence, Gu Yue took Gu Jiurong's hand and walked forward: "It should be here, the second star gate in the legend."

"I can't feel anything..." Gu Jiurong stepped up a few steps to Gu Yue's side, and walked forward side by side with him.The swarm is leading the way, but no one knows what hidden dangers will lie here.So Gu Jiurong said: "Let me go to the front."

"Why, I haven't fought with you for too long? It seems that you have forgotten that you have never won with me."

"If I get hurt, I'll recover soon." Gu Jiurong said.

Gu Yue seemed to laugh lowly: "Don't forget, the birth of the symbiote was to fight against the Zerg. If there is no self-healing ability, there is no talk of long-term combat. Moreover," he took the initiative to talk about this for the first time One thing, "I transplanted the spine, and the reward behind the high risk is always huge."

He looked at Gu Jiurong seriously: "So let me walk in front of you, just like before."

In the past, when the "Black Cloak" was still operating in the dark, Gu Jiurong went out with Gu Yue on the few occasions, and Gu Yue persistently walked ahead of him.Gu Jiurong always thought it was Gu Yue who was afraid that he would make a mistake and cause trouble, until today he heard Gu Yue say: "I brought you out from the two walls, so you must be responsible, right?"

"Yeah." Gu Jiurong became happy for some reason.

He seldom holds hands with others, which is too emotional for him, but at this moment, the blending of skin and temperature feels very beautiful.They moved forward together in the soft white light.

The surroundings are still silent, as if they have been forgotten to the end of the world.

After an unknown amount of time, the Zerg who had been exploring outside stopped screaming, saving their energy, and quietly explored every inch of the corner.But the road ahead seems endless, with no end at all.

Another long time passed.

Gu Jiurong heard the sound of the pointer running in the sea of ​​consciousness.

He immediately became alert and told Gu Yue softly about the situation.

After walking forward for about 10 minutes, the swarm at the front seemed to encounter something.

That's a wall.

The swarm of insects spread out like a tidal wave, constantly groping and touching, and finally found a door, an invisible door standing in pure white light, with special spiritual fluctuations entwined on it.Gu Jiurong and Gu Yue looked at each other, and at the same time stretched out their hands to hold it——

Surprisingly not too sluggish.The combined strength of the two of them only exerted a little force, and it opened slowly.

Outside the door is a piece of greenery, flowers and trees swaying in the breeze.

The body of a beast that has never been seen is translucent, running and flying in it.The gravity here is slightly lighter than that of the stars, and the air has a strange and clear fragrance, rich in oxygen and water, almost like another earth.

They stepped out, but what they saw when they looked back was the most common sight, the same lush greenery.The door was gone, along with those wild and real visions.

"This is... one of the colonized planets of the Fallen Empire." Gu Yue said, "Only a few alliance fighters have seen this kind of creature, and they are all from the Fallen Empire."

Sure enough, as Bai Guang said, the star gate opened a special space in their territory.

The sound of the pointer still echoes.Gu Jiurong followed the sound and searched slowly. The greenery became more and more vigorous as he walked forward. In the end, the plants with a height of hundreds of meters blocked the way, dense as a city wall and even blocked the sky. Clear the way.

After passing through countless pieces of vibrant emerald green, stepping on the soft ground, another layer of vine walls with a thickness of three to four meters was picked apart by the fangs of the Thunder Beast, and the scene after that became completely different.

Just like the scene Celia saw, there were endless corpses on the ground.

The faces of the fallen people have been distorted, the corpses are piled up like a mountain, the eyes that once could reflect the starlight have turned gray, staring at the front until death——

In front of them is the huge, unshakable star gate that they have been thinking about for countless years.

The human figure condensed by white light reappeared.Different dead gray eyes kept popping up and bursting, gradually spreading down to the whole body like blisters, until finally the whole body was covered with gray eyes, just like in Gu Jiurong's dream.

It was so weak that it could not speak, only weak mental fluctuations, standing beside the piled up corpses, staring at its withered body.

No one knows what they are thinking at this moment.Is it thousands of years of loneliness, is it the joy that the wish is finally realized, is it unwilling or relieved?

Gu Jiurong could feel the emotion on it, which was becoming weaker as the white light drifted away.

Indeed, as Bai Guang said, they have been trying to get in touch with the spirits of Gu Jiurong and Gu Yue, resulting in the spirits being contaminated with too many complex emotions.Now in the weakest moment, these excesses are constantly disappearing as impurities.

As a result, the spiritual bodies of these countless fallen people completely returned to their original appearance in just a few minutes, indifferent and calm, and the fluctuating white light has a cold texture-this is their true appearance, without exaggeration His arrogance is just that he simply doesn't put any civilization in his eyes, and enjoys the throne overlooking all living beings to himself.

They are indeed entitled to be so proud. The fallen empire in its heyday is invincible, destroying all the stars.

If humans or Zerg can fully understand their spiritual fluctuations and the world they live in, they may have already admired this brilliant civilization: how a strong and united race can open up a frontier as a pioneer in a vicious universe Breaking ground; and how clever and sharp minds enable them to have unimaginable technology and an invincible fleet.

It's a pity that this day didn't come in time. The civilization they were able to recognize the earliest has fallen to the bottom.

"We are going to open that door." Gu Jiurong told them.

The white light fluctuated for a while, and in the extremely dim light, those many gray-white pupils suddenly came alive, and faint starlight circulated in them again.

Gu Jiurong and Gu Yue came before the star gate.

Looking up like this, the star gate is still so huge that it is shocking.It is countless times bigger than the Ark or Leviathan, enough to swallow everything.

The spiritual substance guarding here has already become extremely weak in the struggle with Gu Jiurong, and it is impossible to stop them from approaching.

Gu Jiurong put his hand on the cold door and felt it trembling.

Then he gave a slight push—

The giant door burst open.

When the bell rang, the wind swept through everything, and the hands finally coincided at the end of the world, and the corpse, the spiritual body, and the illusion were being torn apart crazily.The hidden space was finally fully revealed, turning into a colorful torrent passing through their sleeves, rushing vigorously to the door!

This is also a sea tide with a height of tens of thousands of meters, but it has translucent colorful colors, which are the colors from different civilizations.

Gu Jiurong and Gu Yue seemed to be standing on the bottom of the sea, the torrent did not harm them at all, so when they looked up, they could see the ripples of the water and the rippling sunlight.

The human figures condensed by the white light also quickly escaped out the door, and some special spiritual substances were stripped from their bodies, finally ending this long cycle.

However, before the light completely dissipated, the white light around them suddenly lit up!

Afterwards, they didn't follow the tide and rushed to the door, but took advantage of the momentary light that seemed to be burning to rush towards Gu Jiurong!

Gu Yue didn't react, neither did Zerg Swarm and Gu Jiurong.The white light came up against the current and was menacing. With their usual icy coldness and sharpness, their spiritual power almost seemed to spark sparks in the tide, stabbing Gu Jiurong straight like a sharp sword, and thousands of stars were shining in their eyes.

Is it a counterattack before death, wanting to completely destroy the swarm? !Gu Yue stood in front of Gu Jiurong, subconsciously trying to stop him, but his mental body easily bypassed him and roared towards Gu Jiurong.

Then they stopped, Gu Jiurong's eyes reflected the soft white light, and thousands of voices said at the same time: "We... remember."

In the burning white light, they tried their best to condense their human form again, but in the end they only managed to form a vague figure——

The figure that was constantly drifting towards the star gate stretched out his hand, and carefully condensed a small flower in the palm of his hand with spiritual power.

The flower had the same beautiful white light, and it lightly fell on Gu Jiurong's hand.

Then the star gate slowly closed, and the white light disappeared behind the gate along with the last more turbulent wave, and everything returned to silence.

There is nothing left around.

All the animals and plants in the fallen empire were infected with spiritual substances, and they returned to where they should go with the flood, just like the white dove that day.

As a result, there is no more vitality, no running and flying creatures, the green plants turn into gray dust and float in the air, the star gate is ancient and silent.

Only the small white flower in Gu Jiurong's palm is immortal, proving that there was once a huge empire sleeping here, with ambition, pride and immortal glory.

The author has something to say: The fallen people gave Xiaojiu fafa because when they first appeared, Xiaojiu and Gu Yue were discussing Lao Li's sea of ​​flowers QwQ
