Chapter 208: Brave vs. Brave (4.6K)
Rushed into the car in the heavy rain.
Xia Li shook the water off his clothes, stepped on the brake and started the engine.
Warm air soon came from the air outlet, warming up the coolness on my body.
Xia Li opened the map and started navigating. At this time, a private message popped up on the background of the phone.
The familiar black avatar inevitably makes people feel nervous.
This time the reply contained a few more words, but each word was like a thorn piercing the flesh.
【I saved everyone, but I couldn't save myself. 】
Xia Li closed the message, put the car in gear, and released the brake.
He didn't know where the other person was.
But according to the areas where the natural disasters were most severe and even power outages occurred...
The time traveler should be in a small town in Cangshou District.
It is close to the river and surrounded by mountains on three sides. If a geological disaster occurs, it will be the most serious place.
Outside the car, drops of rain as big as beans hit the glass. The rain curtain was like an invisible wall, completely blocking the view.
Even with the wipers turned to maximum, visibility was no more than fifty meters.
Xia Li was a novice driver, and it was inevitably dangerous for him to drive on the highway in this situation.
"It's difficult to drive at night. You'd better turn on your predictive ability."
Fasten your seat belts, Xia Li said to Wuqi in the back seat.
Wuqi shuddered.
"Meow!"
"No, brother. Safety comes first. My prediction ability is completely random. If you want me to rely on it to avoid traffic accidents... there are four lives in this car!"
Wuqi quickly rejected Xia Li's plan.
Xia Li paused, his thoughts diverted by him.
"Where is the remaining life?"
"Meow."
"I can't say."
"..."
Wuqi seemed to have misunderstood something, but Xia Li was not in the mood to explain.
The last private message from the man with the black avatar kept coming back to my mind.
Xia Li thought of a sentence that he often saw on the Internet.
'How do you create a hero?'
'Give him a bad life, and a little love.'
'So how do you create a villain?'
'Take away that little bit of love.'
Although I don’t know what happened to this brother with the black avatar in real life.
But it is not difficult to see from his response records over the past six months that his life is not going well.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Xia Li and Wuqi failed to come up with a solution. Lucia, who was sitting in the passenger seat, holding the seat belt in her hand, interjected.
She glanced at Xia Li sideways, and a faint blue halo appeared outside her golden-brown pupils.
"Eye magic?" Xia Li asked.
"Ah."
Lucia nodded her little head gently, and a soft sound came out of her nose.
"How long can it last?"
“If we just lock onto the area within 500 meters in a straight line ahead… it won’t consume much energy and can last for a long time,” Lucia replied.
"it is good."
Xia Li nodded, then turned to give some instructions to the cow cat in the back seat.
"Wuqi, you don't have a seat belt, hold on tight."
Wuqi was about to look up, but then he felt a sudden push on his back and rolled out.
"Meow!"
"Can you give me a few seconds to buffer next time?"
……
Cangshou District, Chongqing Province.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the first drop of rain fell here.
Then dense raindrops poured down like a shower head in a bathroom.
The bright night sky was instantly broken, and the sudden change in the weather drew a burst of curses from passers-by on the street.
Qin Chuan squatted at the bridge head, the bright street lights shone on his head and cast a long shadow under his feet.
The black hair was quickly wet by the rain. The spring night was still a bit chilly, and the cold raindrops gradually deprived the surface temperature of the body.
Qin Chuan did not find a place to shelter from the rain, but let the strong wind and icy rain tear his body like a blade.
He stared at his phone absentmindedly, the magic stone on his chest flickering, the flickering light like a heartbeat.
The magic is still going on.
Following the 'suggestions' of that group of netizens, he is searching for the fate that could bring disaster among countless possibilities.
a few days ago.
Qin Chuan went back to his aunt's house.
In this broken life, his aunt's kindness towards him is the only feeling he has in this world.
However, the person who opened the door that day was not my aunt.
My eldest aunt went out to work, and my uncle was alone at home. As expected, he was drunk again.
This scumbag is lazy and likes to eat. He usually drinks or plays cards. When he has no money, he asks my aunt for money. If my aunt has no money, he beats her up.
Qin Chuan always felt that he was a beast, an even uglier beast than the low-level demons on the Zera continent.
Faced with Qin Chuan's arrival, the uncle showed no mercy and vented all his drunkenness on Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan no longer chose to tolerate it. Just like punishing the guests in the hotel, Qin Chuan used the power of the Stone Heart again.
My uncle was tripped by the wine bottles scattered on the ground and was bleeding a lot.
Amid the wailing, Qin Chuan escaped.
He ran forward desperately, hearing the laughter and chatter from the street, the honking of cars, and the children in the square jumping into their mothers' arms.
The sky full of stars flickered in Qin Chuan's eyes, but he could not grasp even a glimmer of hope.
Awful.
Why should he, who had saved hundreds of millions of lives and even the entire world, have to bear such consequences?
Their laughter is so loud.
At this moment, Qin Chuan felt deeply regretful.
He should not have left the Earth, nor should he have returned to the Earth. Each of these two steps was wrong.
If he hadn't left here, his parents would not have died, he would have been able to successfully get a job in a private enterprise, earn a good salary, and live a happy life with his parents who had suffered all their lives.
Or maybe he chooses not to return to Earth.
He would not know the news of his parents' death, and he would stay in the Zella continent forever, enjoying endless honors as a hero and a brave man, and marrying the saint who had been secretly in love with him for more than ten years.
Obviously, he could have had countless happy and beautiful outcomes.
But he chose the path that made him most desperate.
What kind of bullshit "fate" ability is this...
Qin Chuan grabbed his hair, and the choking sound turned into a breath stuck in his chest.
"It's so noisy!!"
He shouted at the little girl behind him.
The little girl was frightened and cried. She dropped the bubble water in her hand and turned around and threw herself into her mother's arms.
"It's so noisy, so noisy..."
Qin Chuan was a little crazy, he even had a devastating thought of killing everyone around him.
——In fact, he did so.
Under the chest, the filled Heart of Stone activated again.
Meteorite fragments wandering in the atmosphere collided by chance, were then captured by gravity, and fell towards the earth.
"Mom, look at the meteor shower!"
"Make a wish quickly! Make a wish quickly!"
"I wish my child to grow up healthily. What's your wish?"
"My wish is that my mother gets younger and younger!"
"You little brat, you're so young and you can say such things, haha~"
The laughter echoing in his ears was like a needle piercing Qin Chuan's ears.
Qin Chuan looked at his trembling hands, his vision blurred.
It shouldn't be like this...
The meteorite, which should have brought a devastating blow, eventually burned up in the atmosphere.
People did not stop the fun. Instead, they were shocked by the sudden meteor shower. Couples kissed under the night sky, and a family of three held hands and made wishes under the shooting stars.
Only Qin Chuan was standing in a corner where the street lights could not reach, his face wet.
He was sure of it.
Fate was playing tricks on him.
And the only thing he has to do now is to avenge this "fate".
Let everyone feel his pain!
……
"My phone is running out of battery."
The cold raindrops fell on the phone screen and rolled down slowly.
The online world is as magical as alcohol. It can numb oneself for a short period of time and allow oneself to temporarily escape from the pain of reality.
Looking at the remaining 10% battery is like a countdown.
Qin Chuan moved his fingers, trying to mobilize the power of the Stone Heart to charge his phone. "Power..."
He said in a somewhat weak voice.
"—Boom!"
There was a deafening roar of thunder.
Lightning struck from high in the sky, hitting the high-voltage power grid not far away, splashing sparks.
In an instant, the power outage caused all the surrounding lights to go out, and the town fell into chaotic darkness.
Qin Chuan's fingers shrank.
The 'electricity' he wants is not this kind of electricity.
The once omnipotent magic appeared on Earth and could not do even the most basic things.
As ironic as his existence.
"Ha ha……"
After giving a nonsensical laugh, Qin Chuan opened yesterday's post, and a few fresh replies popped up.
[Why don't you just commit suicide? ]
[If you die, you might be able to travel through time! ]
"you're right."
Qin Chuan smiled and for the first time felt that the opinions put forward by netizens were very reliable.
Shattering the Heart of Stone when it is at its fullest...
Qin Chuan couldn't predict what the consequences would be. It would probably be an explosion, or a runaway, or a spatial collapse.
But one thing is certain, I will die.
The people around here will also die.
He was going to die anyway, so when Qin Chuan posted this and decided to expose his abilities to the public, he had already prepared himself mentally.
What if this kind of death really allows him to travel through time?
Even if he can't, at least he can drag tens of thousands of people down with him.
“It’s very profitable.”
Qin Chuan said with a smile.
【Warning, low battery! 】
【The phone will turn off in 30 seconds. 】
【30, 29, 28...】
It is indeed a second-hand mobile phone discarded by others. Even the hope brought by this 10% battery is so slim.
The only thing Qin Chuan regrets is...
Maybe, I haven't finished reading this book "Records of Aize Continent".
Judging from the increasingly slow serialization speed of this crappy author, it will take a long time to finish the book.
Pity.
After all, Qin Chuan really likes it.
If it weren't for this experience, he could probably become good friends with the author...
Qin Chuan smiled bitterly and used the last few tens of seconds to send a message to the author of the Q version of the silver dragon head portrait.
【I saved everyone, but I couldn't save myself. 】
The moment I clicked send, the screen went off.
Qin Chuan wasn't sure whether this final 'last words' had been sent successfully, but it didn't matter to him anymore.
There were violent storms in my ears and roars like tsunamis in the sky. The rain mercilessly knocked down the tender buds of spring. The raging torrent under the bridge rolled up like waves and washed over Qin Chuan's feet.
Qin Chuan bent down and picked up a stone that had rolled down the hillside.
Then, without hesitation, he smashed the stone into his chest.
……
"Meow……"
"I always feel like something big is going to happen."
Looking at the lightning and thunder outside the car window, the storm seemed to be going crazy, breaking down trees along the way, and falling rocks continued to fall from both sides.
Wuqi's heart skipped a beat.
For a weak cat like him, the more dangerous the situation is, the more alert he will be.
This is completely different from the nervous silver dragon in the co-pilot seat.
It was a four and a half hour drive. Lucia finally couldn't take it anymore and fell into a deep sleep in the fourth hour.
I heard from Brother Xia that Sister Long’s biological clock is very punctual at work recently. She starts to feel sleepy at 10 o’clock and must go to bed at 12 o’clock.
It's almost three in the morning now. It's not easy for Sister Long to hold on until this time.
Besides, Sister Long is prone to motion sickness, and it was raining heavily outside, so she couldn’t open the windows in the car.
The dragon race is a race with strong self-regulation ability. When the body encounters discomfort, they will self-regulate.
Therefore, the saying "sleep well when encountering difficulties" is not a meme, but a real racial habit.
However, Wuqi felt that Brother Xia let her sleep on purpose.
After all, the air conditioner and heater are turned on so high...
If Wuqi wasn't timid, he would have fallen asleep in this warm temperature.
"Shh, don't scream."
Xia Li lowered his voice and glanced at Wuqi through the rearview mirror.
Wuqi wagged his tail and made no more sound.
"No, I really don't want to wake up Long Jie..."
"The road behind is so dangerous, there's even a power outage. It feels like a landslide could happen at any time. We have four lives in this car, so you might as well ask Sister Long to drive a high-speed car or something like that."
"Long Jie followed you all the way here. If you let her fall asleep, she will definitely be angry when she wakes up."
Wuqi's voice forced its way into Xia Li's mind. Xia Li said nothing, but just held the reel and concentrated on the road ahead.
Wuqi muttered a few words, but seeing that Xia Li ignored him, he just shut up tactfully.
Forget it...
Now that I'm here, I can only leave it to fate whether I live or die.
Speaking of which, a "hero" is usually the protagonist in a story.
If you follow the protagonist, you won’t die so easily.
But if you think like this...
and many more.
The time traveler on the opposite side seems to be a brave man as well!
Thinking of this, Wuqi shuddered all over.
If Xia Li didn't wake up Sister Long... he was about to witness a scene of heroes fighting heroes?!
"arrive."
Xia Li's two brief words broke the silence.
Wuqi, who was immersed in his own thoughts, was frightened to death.
Wuqi jumped onto Xia Li's legs in two steps and stretched his neck to look out through the front windshield.
He was just wondering, they were clearly going to search for the runaway time traveler in the vast town, so how come Xia Li had already insisted that he had been found before they even started looking?
Looking over there, the strange black cat's tail exploded like a pine cone.
"Meow!!"
He clenched his claws, then remembered that Xia Li told him not to make any sound, so he quickly covered his mouth.
In the darkness without any lights, the farthest distance illuminated by the car's high beam...
On the low bridge that was repeatedly washed by the waves.
There is a darkness that cannot be illuminated by light.
The mass of dark matter was extremely chaotic, like a shapeless fog, or like a black hole that had appeared on TV.
Wuqi had never seen such a thing, but the only thing that was certain was that it was definitely an extraordinary power.
Xia Li looked down at Wuqi, then took off his coat and gently covered Lucia with his clothes.
Lucia was sleeping soundly with her body on her side. Perhaps because she felt insecure, she held the seat belt on her shoulders and breathed softly through her small lips.
Xia Li turned his body sideways and kissed her lips which looked soft and delicious.
"Ah! Ugh!"
The sudden appearance of dog food made Wuqi close his eyes in pain.
Then Xia Li opened the car door, and the strong wind whistled in her ears, like a wail from hell.
Wuqi made up his mind and jumped out of the car with Xia Li.
"Meow!"
"Fuck meow!"
"What a strong wind!"
As soon as he landed, Wuqi felt like he was going to be blown away by the storm.
Fortunately, I haven’t trimmed my nails these days, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to grip the ground at all.
Wuqi opened his cat's paws as wide as small plum blossoms and barely managed to stand still by exerting all his strength.
When I raised my head, Xia Li had already walked over step by step.
He stood with his back to the light, and the car lights behind him cast an outline of his figure.
"Wow..."
The sound of metal rubbing against each other came at an inopportune time amid the howling wind.
The light as clear as the sky pierced through the darkness, blooming into a deep blue light that symbolized bravery and hope.
"Meow!!"
Xia Li just disappeared in the black mist, leaving behind only the helpless cry of a cat.
"You wait for me, meow!"
