Lu Jinchao returned to the teacher's side, and as a researcher under Wen Rongxi, he was conducting research on neurological desensitization.

Because Lin Xiaoming had never appeared in his life, he had no way to get the catalyst of Sentinel's burning blood, and passed the age of 25 as an ordinary person.

It is no longer possible to become a guide.

As time passed day by day, Lu Jinchao always remembered that this was the inner demon awakened by Harriet's spiritual power, and the real him was standing on the ring to challenge the chief guide.

Years flew by, he didn't enter the Guiding Academy, he didn't even meet those friends, and he stayed away from many disputes because of it.

Life is as calm as a pool of water, with faint ripples but no waves.

If you don't know what the situation is, you will almost be deceived by this appearance.

In this world, as an ordinary person, Lu Jinchao is still outstanding. He devotes himself to research, joins the Science Council with his many achievements, and inherits Wen Rongxi's mantle.

And none of the hundreds of brain samples in the secret laboratory came to life. In the culture column numbered E7, the brain floated quietly, like some kind of silent creature in the deep sea.

The neurological desensitization project was not going well, and after trying other methods, I finally managed to find some sample data, so I was able to continue.

Lu Jinchao saw everything in his eyes, and he had never realized so clearly before that the appearance of himself and Lin Xiaoming had caused such a big change.

Even... There was no star eclipse disaster on Tianya.

Lu Jinchao is constantly looking for a way to get rid of his inner demons. He cannot use his spiritual power in the field created by Harriet, so how to trigger the breakthrough from within?

After staying in the inner demon for too long, even as firm as Lu Jinchao, at certain fleeting moments, there will be a sense of dislocation as to where is reality and where is illusion.

until that day comes.

Last night, I chatted with the teacher about some details of the research until nine o'clock. After the life assistant picked up Wen Rongxi, Lu Jinchao went back alone to the hut he rented near the research institute.

There is no Lin Xiaoming, no Yunjin, and no E7.

He really lived alone.

Already accustomed to such days in the magical world, Lu Jinchao tidied himself up and rested. The next morning, like countless mornings, he arrived at the laboratory on time at seven o'clock.

Usually, Wen Rongxi would also come over at this time. As he got older, he slept less. He usually rested at eleven o'clock and would wake up at five o'clock.

But this time, Lu Jinchao waited until eight o'clock, but he couldn't wait for the teacher.

No one responded when I sent a message to inquire, and even the life assistant who lived with Wen Rongxi couldn't be contacted.

Is something wrong?

Lu Jinchao vaguely felt something was wrong, he immediately told Wu Rou, left the laboratory, and drove to Wen Rongxi's residence.

Wen Rongxi lived in a single-family apartment and set up a small laboratory at home. Lu Jinchao came to the apartment and turned on the terminal for the last time, but there was still no reply.

Raising his hand and knocking on the door, there was silence.

Lu Jinchao directly opened the door lock with his fingerprints. In the past few years, he has devoted himself to research, and often comes here to discuss some details with his teacher. fingerprints.

As soon as he entered, Lu Jinchao realized the ominous atmosphere, it was so quiet, as if no one was here.

After walking a few steps inside, I could vaguely smell a faint smell of blood.

Oops.Lu Jinchao immediately went straight to Wen Rongxi's bedroom, he opened the door, and saw the teacher lying on the ground at a glance.

Wen Rongxi was lying face down beside the bed, with a large amount of vomit and blood under her body, she was motionless at this moment, and had already lost all consciousness.

"teacher!"

Lu Jin squatted down beside him, and quickly checked Wen Rongxi's condition. Through various traces around him, he quickly judged that Wen Rongxi had a sudden high blood pressure when he woke up in the morning, and the blood flow broke through the fragile blood vessels in the old man's brain. , causing cerebral hemorrhage.

Must be sent to the hospital as soon as possible.

Lu Jinchao immediately dialed the emergency number, and at the same time ran to find a device that could relieve Wen Rongxi's symptoms.

He remembered that the teacher's blood pressure had always been normal, and he would have a regular physical examination every three months. How could there be a sudden cerebral hemorrhage?

Anxiously waiting for the call to be connected, at this time, Lu Jinchao, who was looking for relevant medicines, opened the big wardrobe in the bedroom——

I saw the life assistant's still fresh corpse inside. She had a ferocious face, her facial features were distorted and her mouth was wide open, as if she wanted to remind Lu Jin what to do.

Lu Jin shrank sharply towards his pupils.

Then severe pain came from the back of his head, and he completely lost consciousness.

chaos.

Light exists, but it seems that it doesn't exist, and what I feel is only a void.

Is this... dead?

Lu Jin moved his fingers. At this moment, he felt the existence of his spiritual power again.

This is……? !

The eyes gradually became clear, and the mental power that had finally returned began to weaken. Lu Jinchao seized the time, gathered all his strength, and tried to break the illusion from the inside.

Click.

After the violent blow, he clearly heard the sound of a crack appearing, but the mental power had all dissipated after the charged blow.

Still need to wait until the next time, and the next time.

The scene of the cemetery condensed into a solid body, Lu Jin looked at the tombstone of his adoptive parents in front of him, and raised his hand to look at the time on the terminal.

This is... the day before entering the magical realm of the mind.

A few minutes ago, he should have died.

The research on neurological desensitization finally touched the interests of the powerful. At the most critical stage, the teacher and life assistant were killed. He went to look for it and was killed by the enemy ambushing in the teacher's house.

But death can make the demon go back.

Lu Jinchao gradually realized that if he couldn't use his mental power to break through the illusion, everything would go back and forth like this forever.

Repeatedly reappearing and dying again and again, he eventually wears down his will and drive, returning to the original cowardice in the possibility of not being awakened.

It is indeed a very superb method. The wizard's powerful mental power is enough to manipulate people's hearts, just like Margaret can control other unsuspecting politicians. Harriet obviously used this to the extreme in the process of defending the ring.

Lu Jinchao's way is completely different from hers. Trapped in an illusion, he doesn't know what kind of trouble his mental power will cause to Harriet, but it is estimated that the other party will not be easy now.

He also paid attention to another point.

If he could advance one day each time, would he also be able to return to the day when Lin Xiaoming had an accident?

If he could go back to that day, he would be able to personally find the boy he missed in his inner demons and break everything from the root.

The plan was formed in his heart like this, Lu Jinchao squatted down to wipe the rain-soaked tombstone, and left the cemetery.

He still returned to his own home, went to the river to search but found nothing, completed the final operation in charge, resigned from the hospital, cleaned up Yin Qi, and left Nantianxing.

Everything is similar to the previous process, and the day earlier doesn't seem to have much impact.

Lu Jinchao once again invested in the research together with Wen Rongxi, but this time he knew that as long as the research on neurological desensitization continued, the principal persons in charge of them would all die.

Maybe the reality will be like this, but now, he is in a magical realm, so he can temporarily put these aside.

Lu Jinchao would go around the Sentinel Academy every day, hoping to see a familiar figure.

If Lin Xiaoming, who was not met by him, was finally captured by the Sanctuary, as a blood burning sentinel, it would probably be enough to be sent to this academy, right?

He had seen Ludwig by chance, Victoria, the Zhang brothers, Lin Xiaoming's roommate and two friends in the dormitory next door, but he had never seen Lin Xiaoming.

It seems that Sentinel no longer exists.

My heart sank little by little.

But Lu Jinchao quickly adjusted, this situation most likely happened to defeat him with his heart demon.

There is not much to say after that.

Time flies, he took care of the teacher more closely, and was alert to possible dangers around him, but he was still researching until the most critical moment, and was killed by an unknown enemy in another way.

In the vague pain of death, Lu Jinchao seized the moment when his mental power was re-perceived, gathered all his strength and delivered a hard blow, the crisp sound of cracks spreading, and the surroundings appeared blurred for a moment.

But not enough.

Once again, one day ahead, go back to the Southern Sky Star in the past.

This cycle goes on and on, taking advantage of the short gap between death and retrospect, sticking to the firmness in the bottom of my heart, and constantly launching attacks with spiritual power.

In the sound again and again, the illusion has become unstable.

As the gap widened, the spiritual power was no longer always suppressed, but only a very small part could be controlled by Lu Jinchao.

Opening his eyes again, Lu Jinchao exhaled deeply, and finally came to this time, and now the date he traced back was exactly the day before he first picked up Lin Xiaoming by the river.

That was the day Xiao Ming had an accident.

According to various clues and Lin Xiaoming's previous narration, that night Lin Xiaoming would take the escape cabin of the spaceship and crash into the woods by the river. Facing the pursuers behind him, the sentinel struggled to the river's edge in blood-burning pain and plunged into it. , was washed downstream.

Lu Jinchao ignored Yin Qi, who was publishing a tirade to show off his knowledge, and immediately left the hospital, returned home, took his car keys, put a first aid kit and all kinds of necessary supplies in the car, and made sure After getting ready, drive to the woods on the upper reaches of the river.

He even brought a telescope. Once he finds the escape pod, he can use the telescope to determine the landing point, and then use his mental power to find the exact location of Lin Xiaoming.

It can be regarded as fully prepared, Lu Jinchao is confident that he will be able to rescue Lin Xiaoming in advance this time, unless... the sentinel in this illusion did not escape to Nantianxing at all.

Knowing that everything is my own demon, I still feel a little nervous.

Lu Jin sat in the driver's seat, looking at the woods ahead and waiting quietly. In the trunk of the car, there were many nutrient solutions that had been warmed up in advance and put in the incubator, as well as the softest clothes he could find.

For most Sentinels, even the pain of rough clothing can drive them mad.

Although Xiaoming is powerful, he is definitely not as strong as normal when he is injured. In addition, he still has a certain amount of mental strength, so he should be able to take good care of him.

Lu Jinchao made all the preparations he could think of.

It's been raining, it's going to be two weeks of continuous rain, the sky is getting dark, and the river is rising.

The moment the red dots appeared in the sky, Lu Jinchao immediately cheered up. He grabbed the binoculars on the co-pilot and looked over, making sure that it was an escape pod that was rapidly descending towards the ground.

Going southeast!The landing point is really close to the river!

Lu Jin kicked the accelerator to keep up. After driving several hundred meters, the forest ahead was too dense for vehicles to pass through.

He quickly put the first aid kit on his shoulder, got out of the car and ran towards the direction where the aircraft fell.

Several days of overcast rain made the ground quite muddy, and the rain was getting heavier, and the bean-heavy rain hit the face, blurring the vision that was already limited in the dark night.

He staggered and ran at the fastest speed. The muddy water stained his shoes and trousers. Lu Jin looked up and saw the escape pod passing over his head like a shooting star.

A few seconds later, Lu Jinchao clearly heard the crash of the escape pod landing, and even the ground shook.

coming!

He tried his best to push away the branches in front of him. The leaves scratched his skin, but he didn't feel any pain at all. In the cold rain, the hibernation cabin glowing red was damaged during the forced landing and stuck obliquely in the mud.

The hatch has been opened, and a trail of blood snakes from it to the front, being quickly washed away by the rain.

Lu Jinchao followed the bloodstain for a few steps, and saw a familiar figure in front of him. The young man was holding on to the tree trunk, struggling to escape, leaving bloody palm prints on the bark.

His leg was injured and twisted at an abnormal angle. After stumbling and walking more than ten meters, he finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell heavily on the ground.

"Xiaoming, Lin Xiaoming!"

Lu Jinchao shouted his name loudly, his voice was swallowed by the sound of thunder and rain, he came to the young man, and the remaining mental power quickly sank into the young man's body, soothing his violently collapsing mental image.

What I saw was not a familiar mechanical city, and spiritual power was infiltrating into the cracks of the illusion in an unexpected way.Yes, it was the appearance of a person on the very first day that really made him have the courage to kill the demon.

Lu Jinchao grabbed Lin Xiaoming's arm, and the tentacles were so hot that they almost burned people, intertwined with the cold rain, causing trembling.

Lightning flashed across the sky, and the silvery-white light disappeared in a flash. In this brief light, the blood-soaked boy managed to break free from the overload of his five senses and raised his head.

The Sentinel is still not the one he is familiar with. The burning blood has just started, and the genes and appearance have not yet begun to change. The current Lin Xiaoming is his original appearance.

At first, he only glanced at the arrest warrant. Lu Jinchao didn't remember Lin Xiaoming's original appearance for a long time, and the appearance he saw in front of him might even be imagined by him.

In those black eyes filled with blood, Lu Jinchao saw confusion and struggle, as well as sobriety and vigilance amidst the pain.

More mental power sank into the sentinel's body, and quickly filled the cracks that had been hit hard in the previous dozen or so retracements!

"I will protect you."

Lu Jinzhao stared into those eyes, and the whole world became chaotic. In the silvery-white flashes several times a second, he glimpsed deeper into Lin Xiaoming's pupils.

——You dragged me out of the abyss of ashes, and thus became the courage to ignite my heart.

This is unreal, and it is what I want to do for you.

The rain poured down, as if the sky was connected to the sea, and a huge gap was opened. The barking sound from behind became clearer, and the light of the strong flashlight intertwined in the forest, and it was about to shine on the two of them.

The river water spread up, submerged the soles of the feet, and submerged the calves. In the freezing cold, Lu Jin hugged the hot young sentinel tightly, and poured all his mental power into it!

click-

The crackling sound was so clear.

Like a glass being shattered, the scattered and irregular fragments were bounced off the ground, reflecting the light to all angles, and finally fell into the calm sea without waves.

The river flooded the top of his head.

The temperature in his arms also gradually disappeared with the shattering of the demon, Lu Jinchao let go of his hand, are you nostalgic?It is indeed nostalgia, but his feelings must be handed over to the real Lin Xiaoming in reality.

He kicked out his feet vigorously and kept swimming upwards, the light was appearing, and the darkness was being driven away little by little as he rose.

Lu Jin stretched out his hands and grabbed the edge of the bamboo raft.

wow-

With the sound of the water, he emerged from the sea and climbed up the bamboo raft with both arms.

Clothes and hair were dripping water continuously, Lu Jin sat on the bamboo raft, breathing calmly.

broke free.

The long time regression in the inner demon is indeed a kind of torture to the mind. Harriet is worthy of being the current chief, and his strength is the most tyrannical guide he has ever seen.

Lu Jin looked towards the sea, and in the ripples of his water, he could vaguely see the reflection of the guide hugging the burning blood sentinel tightly.

But this scene is gradually disappearing with the shattering of the demonic realm.

The endless sea, the bamboo rafts floating in the sky, this is his mental picture.

It was quite smooth to break free from Harriet's domain, but this was not the end yet. After truly feeling the tyrannical strength of the chief guide, Lu Jinchao began to look forward to the time when the two faced each other head-on.

at the same time.

The biting wind cut across like a knife, mixed with icy snow particles and hit the body, blowing so hard that you can't even open your eyes, the endless snow field is quietly creating snow blindness.

With every step, I stepped deeply into the snow deep in my calf, lifted my foot hard to pull it out, and took another step with all my strength.

Harriet couldn't remember how long he had been walking in the snow.

The water vapor brought out by breathing turned into frost in an instant, freezing on the face, the eyelashes were dyed white, cold, very cold, clearly knowing that this is a world formed by the condensed spiritual power, but still feeling like having a body, feeling very real cold.

Harriet was able to persevere until now, all thanks to the condensed heart fire that warms his soul.

She did not expect that Lu Jinchao could create such a domain. Most of the guides are gentle, and even the spiritual bodies are harmless herbivores. In battle, they usually choose to use the existing favorable conditions, from Defeat the opponent deep in the heart, such as the inner demon.

Before accepting the challenge, Harriet carefully reassured that he no longer had any obsessions that he could not let go of.

But Lu Jinchao directly pulled her to this snowy field.

The singing sounded again, the ethereal melody was humming like a pilgrim, looking for the traces of the gods, but he couldn't figure out where it came from.

This may be a kind of guidance, but this is the territory created by Lu Jinchao, and it is very likely to mean a trap.

Harriet knew that she couldn't follow the guidance of the voice, but the singing came from all directions, so where else could she go?

She stopped.

Harriet took a deep breath. Under her feet was the calf-deep thick snow, and an ice layer of unknown thickness.

She can support her for a long time by relying on her heart fire, but it is meaningless to support her once.

She had to break through the domain, and Harriet wasn't sure how long he could trap Lu Jinchao. If the opponent broke free faster than her, he would not be far from losing.

Try it down.

She squatted down, and the heart fire transformed from mental power scorched the ice and snow, and soon melted into a puddle of stagnant water.

The ice layer was thinner than Harriet had imagined, and it was quickly penetrated, revealing the living water below. Harriet reached out and touched it, but the water was not actually cold.

Spiritual power probed downward, and after a few minutes, Harriet opened his eyes and confirmed that the exit was just below.

She took a deep breath, carefully protected the heart fire used for lighting and heating, and jumped into the ice cave.

The water immediately soaked her whole body, Harriet sank quickly, and the ice hole became a circle above her head, exposing the light on the ground, and gradually receded as she sank.

In the world of spiritual power, one does not need to breathe, nor does one need to bear the pressure of sea water.Harriet sank a hundred meters, but instead of finding the exit he had sensed before, he felt some kind of unspeakable penetration.
