Welcome to Nightmare Game III

In the sky of the snow-burning plateau, swarms of sky jellyfish floating in the wind are slowly migrating from the south.

It is the first time for Qile people to witness such a fantastic scene: in the endless blue sky, countless sky jellyfish are chasing sunlight and water vapor, cruising in the sky and performing photosynthesis.

Unless they die, they will never land in their lives.

The Qi Le people rode the griffin that Aya gave him, and flew over the jellyfish group, bringing a gust of wind.The jellyfish sensed the change in the airflow and adjusted their posture slowly. Wherever he passed, the jellyfish swarm gave way to an air passage.

He was clearly flying in the air, but he seemed to be swimming in the deep sea.

Originally, the Snow Fen Plateau in the cold season was a white graveyard of ice and snow. Even the most cold-resistant species of sky jellyfish would flee this place in a hurry and move to the warmer south.

No one expected that this ice season would end so suddenly.

When the Destroyer Dragon roared and flew across the sky, the huge destructive force tore through the crater under the canyon, and the erupting volcano and geothermal heat quickly changed the season of the snow-burning plateau.

In the Great Rift Valley, the white cemetery turned into a green ocean, and all creatures woke up from hibernation, eagerly embracing the warmth created by destruction.

However, going against the sky will eventually have a price.

In front of a cedar forest, the griffin landed on the ground.Qi Leren didn't go straight to the pine forest, but turned to look at the mess behind him.

It is a breeding ground for plateau penguins.Before the arrival of the cold season, the penguin couples hunted hard and fed themselves and their partners into two chubby penguin balls.After accumulating enough fat, the females migrated thousands of miles from the Salt Lake area, preparing to breed the next generation on the most barren land during the coldest time.

It has to be cold enough, harsh enough, and scarce enough to keep their predators at bay.

As a result, thousands of female highland penguins came here, built nests with cedar branches and leaves under the snow, and laid penguin eggs to hatch.Their male mates are on their way to take over from their exhausted wives, and the females can return to the salt lakes to hunt.

When the little penguin hatches, the penguin couples will take turns to return to the salt lake area, regurgitate the food they hunt, and feed it to the cub until it grows up.

However, a sudden change of seasons ruins it all.

The plateau penguins sensed the sudden change in the climate, the sky jellyfish came back, and their natural enemies, the snow vultures, followed.These flying hunters hunt not only jellyfish, but also the slow-moving but plump plateau penguins on the ice sheet.

The penguins had to give up hatching, dropped their eggs in a panic, and fled back to the Salt Lake area.Only under the protection of the lake water can they avoid these voracious predators.

Thousands of penguin eggs were discarded here, and occasionally there were a few penguins who refused to abandon their eggs, and were pecked by the hunters in the sky until only bloody bones remained.

The Qi Le people led the griffins and walked on a bloody ice field.

He thought in a trance: If Ning Zhou saw this scene and realized that he caused all this, how sad would he be?

The power from the source is so cruel, it is a merciless existence, when it crosses the ice and snow of the snow-burning plateau, it brings a rich oasis season, and also brings the disaster of penguins on the plateau.

The original power does not care about the life and death of these creatures.

But the one with the power cared.

He has not been corrupted by divinity, and he is still unwilling to give up those innocent and passionate emotions in the human soul.

--Love.

Because of love, he has tenderness and compassion in his heart, and he does not want to hurt.

However, it is counterproductive.

The wheels of power rolled over the Yuanyuan Avenue, and everyone could only see the high and far throne in front of them, and no one would look down at the insects and ants crushed to death in the rut.

At this moment, Qi Leren felt powerless.

All power has a price.

When he was still very weak, he didn't need to think too much, as long as he could survive and protect the important relatives and friends around him, he would be satisfied.He is too weak, so weak that as long as he follows his heart, he doesn't have to take any moral risks.

But when he becomes stronger and has power and status, every decision he makes inevitably dominates others, and this domination means that those who obey his orders face danger.

He handed over the position of secretary to an ordinary aboriginal girl, and her life would be several times more dangerous than before; he ordered his subordinates to thoroughly investigate the fanatic case, which meant that his subordinates might die; Order may make fanatics jump over the wall in a hurry and hurt innocent people.

Everything he did, someone might bleed for.

The more he cares about those who bleed for him, the deeper the pain of powerlessness will be.

So, what about Ning Zhou?

What kind of mood was he in when he finished the fusion trial and flew away from Metung Ridge City in a daze of shattered memory fragments?

His mind was confused and he was afraid of hurting others, so he came to the wilderness silently, licking his wound alone, waiting for his lover to pick him up.

He tried his best not to hurt, so when the wings of the magic dragon passed over the canyon of the Xuefeng Plateau, instead of bringing destruction, it brought the season of oasis.

But this oasis is not an oasis of all life, at least for the plateau penguins, it is the end.

People from Qi Le searched beside the cedar forest, and there were abandoned penguin eggs along the way, most of which had been pecked by birds, and the egg liquid inside was scattered all over the place.Occasionally there are a few intact eggs, but they have also been frozen into ice, and there is no vitality in them.

The people of Qi Le almost gave up hope. This place has become a restaurant for predators. It is impossible for these fragile penguin eggs to escape.But he has a little fantasy, what if he can find a penguin egg that is still alive?Even if there is only one.

The griffin led by him made a nasal sound of "wheezing and wheezing" and roared towards a snow vulture. The snow vulture flapped its wings in horror and flew away, revealing a plateau penguin that had been pecked to pieces. There is an egg between its feet.

The Qi Le people rushed over, the body of the dead penguin was still warm, and the egg it hatched was also warm!

He carefully held the egg in the palm of his hand, nourishing it with the original power.Under the thick eggshell, the cub that had gradually lost its vitality came back to life on the verge of dying.

Very good!Holding the surviving egg, Qi Leren burst into tears.

He wants to give this egg to Ning Zhou, and Ning Zhou will be able to hatch it, and they can raise it together, teach it to hunt, and finally send it back to the group, just like he did when he was young .

Thinking of this, Qi Leren carefully put the egg on his body, protecting it with the power of rebirth.

He buried the dead penguin and walked towards the cedar forest.

………………

Ning Zhou closed the diary.

The stories inside are frightening and shocking.

It's only been seven hours since I woke up this morning.And in just seven hours, he watched his life for the next seven years.

He was shattered in a rebellious love affair, and reborn in a rebellious love affair.

However, this is not the end.

The future is more cruel than he imagined.

Now, he knew who the figure with the scarlet eyes was in his mind—it was the Demon King of Destruction.

Also himself.

At the moment of figuring out all this, what he first felt was not sadness and pain, but a kind of enlightened relief.

It turned out to be like this, so it turned out to be like this, the confusion and distress that had plagued him since he was a child, finally had an answer at this moment:

Why did his mother seldom tell him about his father, why his mother and Teacher Arnold insisted on sending him to the Holy See, why no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't learn magic...

Now he understands.

After letting go, the heavy pain followed: he turned out to be the new Destroyer Demon King.

Those who stare into the abyss fall into the abyss, and the warrior who slays the dragon becomes a dragon.

No, the truth is crueler than that.

Those who stare at the abyss are guarded against falling while staring, but they don't know that they are the abyss itself.

The vicious dragon wakes up from his dream, and it turns out that being a warrior and slaying a dragon is just a ridiculous dream of his own.

But why is he still alive?

The moment he found out that he had become a demon, he should have died calmly.

As a devout monk, this is a matter of course.

He shouldn't live selfishly, because his life is a threat to the world.He didn't know when he would lose his mind and act as crazy as his father.

He should strangle himself in hell, shed the last drop of blood in the fight with the devil, and let the human world bathe in a bright future.

Ning Zhou pulled out his mother's holy sword, and his eyes were reflected on the sharp and shiny blade, with icebergs floating in the sea and eyelashes full of wind and snow.

There was a strange look in that gloomy blue, bright as the burning aurora in the polar night—that was the look he was most afraid of, whenever the believers in the Holy See looked at him with such eyes, he would stop I can't help but want to escape.

Those eyes were looking forward, yearning, and begging to be redeemed.

He suddenly understood why he was not dead yet.

【Please redeem me. 】

Once, those people looked at him like this and shouted in their hearts.

Now, deep in his soul, he is also looking forward to this:

【Please redeem me. 】

But is it right to impose such hopes on lovers?Ning Zhou questioned his future self.

The voice in the soul did not respond again.

Ning Zhou put down the holy sword, and he decided to wait a little longer.

He can't judge a person who has never been masked, at least for him now, he has not yet known him.

He remembered the tasks that his future self had arranged for his present self in his diary: [hunting, building a hut, and taking care of his own life.When he finds you, ask him to come in and sit down.Don't let him sit in the snow, it's too cold.You can't let him starve and freeze with you, don't let him worry about you. 】

Ning Zhou turned his head and looked at the half-built wooden house behind him.

Now he knows why he has broken a hand and lost an eye, but he still has to work hard to repair the wooden house here.

Ning Zhou looked at the portrait in the diary again, the smiling side face was traced stroke by stroke by his future self.Whenever he looked at this portrait, infinite tenderness welled up in his heart, as if these emotions were born to take root in his heart.

At this moment, he was full of anticipation.

He decided to go hunting, feed himself, and then return to work on the cabin and wait in anticipation.

If he doesn't come, after nightfall, he will record today's events, because tomorrow his time will go backwards again, and he will be 17 years old.

At the age of 17, he has to re-read the diary and re-experience the love he has never experienced.

Until he gets smaller and smaller, he can no longer recognize the words in the diary, but he can still look at the portrait on it and remember that person.

And then, until he couldn't even walk around at will, but could only stay in the finally built wooden house, curled up by the lighted fire, wrapped in the blanket with Maria's embroidered name on it, and fell asleep alone.

Keep going back in time until you can't wake up.

will i wait for you

Qile people.
