Gate of Apocalypse

Chapter 577 [Clouds will disperse]

The sky doesn't know when some clouds will gather.

Chen looked down at the little boy beside him. Adam squatted on the floor with a tree stick in his hand that he didn't know where to get, turning the gravel on the ground one by one, seemed to be looking for something.

Tatsune sighed and looked up at the sky. In the cracks of the clouds, the sun was shining, as if it were a legendary monument.

“Well, it smells sanctimonious.” The tone of Chen's voice was disdainful, then he drank aloud: “Are you bored to make such a sky? Zero City?”

No answer.

“Let's go.” Tatsune held Adam's hand - Adam had no body at all, he was an illusory digital projection, but for some reason, Tatsune's hand clearly pinched Adam's arm and pulled him up. With a gentle smile on his face.

“Go, I'll show you the world —— even though everything here is fake. ”

Adam's dark color is somewhat hesitant: “I... have never seen the world. ”

“… always to see.” Chen smiles, but there is a strange certainty in his eyes!

Well, definitely.

Always, look.

……

“It's three fifths already. ”

Chen Xiaocai sighed: “I don't know what other people came in this copy, maybe… are the old friends on the list. ”

Phoenix silently squeezed her fist. Xiu Xiu noticed this tiny thing of a phoenix, blinking her eyes, holding her fingers in detail, then suddenly reached out her hand and gently touched her finger, whispering: “Are you nervous? ”

The phoenix looked down at the little girl and squeezed her fingers loose quietly.

At this time, Chen Xiaoliang had discovered something.

At the corner of the tent, he gently lifted a piece of ground that had been cut to pieces by the sword and then clamped a piece with two fingers.

This is a black metal iron sheet, sharp, nicely cut, just a few centimeters long, pinched at the fingertips, close to look, sniffed again.

“Black is rust.” Chen Xiaoliang frowned: “It seems that… is a fragment of a weapon, maybe something like a sword or something was chopped up and left behind. ”

And that's when the personal system got the message!

“System Tip: …… Item: 45, ON…”

These are unimportant, it's just obvious that what Chen Xiaoliang found was useful and that the task item finally completed 45.

The last sentence, however, changed the colour of three people at the same time!

“… this copy counts down to 299 minutes and 58 seconds. ”

Finally jumped the meter from "299 minutes 59 seconds”!

One second!

Only one second!

However, at 299 minutes 58 seconds, time stops again!

“A second.” Chen Xiaocai looked up and thought, but when he looked up, he seemed to laugh bitterly. "I... figured it out. ”

“Oh?”

“The time here is not stopped, but slowed down.” Chen Xiaocai's tone is very cogent: “From the beginning of the copy until now, although there are no tables, we can probably estimate that there should have been nearly an hour. One hour, and here it is... one second. That is, time is not stagnant, it is slowed down a lot, about… well, if a second equals an hour, 360 times. Yes, the time has been slowed 360 times. ”

360 times!

“Who can do that? Is it a system? ”

“Obviously not.” Chen Xiaocai shook his head: “I don't know who it is, but the people who can do it must be very powerful! Very, very strong! ”

After filming his clothes, Chen Xiaocai pulled Xiu Xiu's hand: “Let's go back to the castle. It's 45, which means the copy area is completely open to us. Just find the last thing and you should be able to make a copy. And... and some old friends, maybe we can meet here. ”

Phoenix mumbled: “You seem to have forgotten something important, player! This copy has a player camp. ”

Chen Xiaolei smiled, pointing to his temple: “Perhaps it's strange to say this, but I have a strange feeling: this copy, maybe we won't meet any players. ”

“Why?”

“I don't know, sixth sense.” Chen Xiaoliang's near-deceptive answer silenced the phoenix.

The three of them walked towards the castle gate. When they first walked to the castle gate, Chen Xiaocai stood still and looked at the phoenix with a thoughtful look: “Your wand...”

The phoenix put the wand pinched in her hand behind her: "Why? ”

“Ready for battle? ”

“In the copy, of course. ”

Chen Xiaoliang suddenly let go of Xiu Xiu's hand and turned around to stare at the phoenix, then he made a slightly blushing move.

Chen Xiaocai pressed Phoenix's shoulder and approached her face. The distance between her eyes did not exceed 20 cm. You can even hear each other breathing.

“I'd be grateful if you'd come in and help me, Phoenix.” This guy is raising words, he's silent, he's lowering his voice as gently as he can: “You suddenly change your mind outside the copy, and you're happy. I thought about it, and maybe I can think about why. I know it's not very specific, but what I want to say to you is... Phoenix, we're friends, right? ”

“Kind of... right.” The girl's tone is somewhat unspeakable.

“Definitely.” Chen Xiaocai laughed: “In London, you helped me a lot. We fought together in the punitive copy. Although... in the later stages of the London replica, my victory led to you being thrown into the punishment replica because the system automatically assigned different camps,... overall, I think you're a friend. ”

“What are you trying to say? ”

“Since we are friends, then... there are some embarrassing things to do, leave them to me.” Chen Xiaocai's eyebrows were wrinkled, but his eyes were clear: “I will help you - for the hard things, I will help you carry them together. ”

Carry it together.

The three words fell into her ears, the phoenix tightened her body, suddenly she did not know why, suddenly relaxed, she looked at the guy in front of her with an unprecedented gaze and temper.

He was just a teenager, talking, his eyes, his smile, inevitably the shyness and shyness characteristic of a boy his age, his shoulders not wide enough, his voice not hard enough, his chin just a little plush —— not even his beard grew.

Just one teenager, standing in front of himself, pressing his shoulder, saying something like "carry it together"...

Somewhere in Phoenix's heart, slight, light, very small, touched.

The girl leaves her face: “I never need anyone else to carry anything for me. ”

“But I do. For friends.” Chen Xiaocai smiled and retracted her hand pressed against the phoenix's shoulder, but she held her wrist in a smooth motion: “Come on, let's go in together. ”

“Hey, what are you doing? Didn't anybody tell you not to pull a girl's hand? ”

“We're friends, living and dying together.” The teenager laughed with some scoundrel.
