Zhixing immediately looked at the reality for a while, then returned to the memory space and went to the coffee shop.

However, after arriving at the coffee shop, Zhixing still did not see any trace of the two people, and suddenly felt a sense of unease as if he was out of control.

Although there is already a lot of evidence that fate is unchangeable, so far, no corresponding experiments have been conducted on the consequences of a character's premature death, and this is also the most likely way for the change to cause the Law of the Circle to cease to exist.

"We can't let Futaba get into trouble. This is also a bad ending. Although I don't know where the two are now, but judging from the peaceful situation on the ground, I'm afraid the only place in danger is the subway station."

Thinking of this, Zhixing shouted twice and after getting no response from the two, he rushed to the Shibuya subway exit and saw the entrance to the Impression Space with a noticeably different atmosphere.

After looking around and not finding anyone else, Zhixing didn't know whether Shuangye hadn't come here or had already gone down.

"Futaba, are you there? If you're near a subway station, then don't get off the subway!"

In such a big city, only Zhihang's empty voice could be heard, as if it were a dead city.

After Zhihang stood guard at the subway entrance for a few minutes, the uneasiness in his heart did not subside, but instead gradually intensified.

This forced Zhi Xing to look down at the elevator from time to time.

"It's too troublesome that we can't communicate remotely in the palace!"

Although Zhixing was unable to confirm the situation of other people in the witch's barrier, in the world of Madoka Magica, everyone knew the art of telepathy and could communicate directly over long distances.

But here, the power is clearly on the phone, but there is no ability to make remote calls, which is really a waste of the phone's function.

"No, I'd better go down and take a look."

"The Impression Space is everyone's palace. Perhaps my voice outside can't reach in, just like the hostility inside can't affect the ground."

"Just a quick look, at least one level shouldn't be a problem. Without awakening the mask, even if she did, Futaba, a non-combatant, wouldn't be able to get far."

"I'll just go down to the first floor and take a look. I can come back up and keep watch then."

Zhixing took a deep breath and looked around at the empty square. He immediately walked down the stairs at the subway entrance and looked around, but he didn't see any living creatures.

However, seeing that the impression space was distorted and had only one passage, Zhi Xing did not take much precautions and came to the nearest fork in the road by sticking to the wall. He looked around and did not see Futaba, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, after preparing to escape, he shouted:

"If you're inside, get out of the subway immediately. It's not safe here!"

As soon as he finished shouting, Zhixing turned around without stopping and tried to escape back to the stairs.

But as a cloud player, Zhixing still underestimated the impression that this battle scene was skipped and used to allow players to make money.

I saw a black shadow coming from under Zhixing's feet and arriving at the end of the railway track first. Then, as if by water escape, a huge monster emerged from a pool of liquid.

Was it a creature floating in the air like a ghost, with several chains floating around its body, and a very long magic wand in each hand?

Zhixing didn't expect that the monster in the impression space would appear like this, but when he saw the black shadow moving, he reacted quickly and began to call the little bear in his heart.

However, just as Kamoshida was able to take advantage of this opportunity to deliver a kick, this monster that was clearly capable of rivaling the Phantom Thieves' power was clearly not something that Shizuo could react to.

It raised its wand and pointed it at the paper at close range.

"boom!"

The monster disappeared from Zhixing's sight.

Chapter 252: Memories End, Write Some Rules

The monster of cognitive shadow suddenly disappeared. Although Zhixing's defensive efforts based on inertia were in vain, he quickly realized that the witch's barrier had saved him again.

Because of the way the monster just appeared, although Zhixing knew that the power of the witch could also enter this impression space, he had no intention of staying, but continued his interrupted escape.

As his body moved, the motionless image in his sight attracted Zhi Xing's attention.

The figure wrapped in black clothes, holding two long-handled weapons and surrounded by iron chains was exactly the cognitive existence that Zhixing had just encountered.

“The interface that looks most like a VR game appeared.”

After noticing that the image would not stay in one place, Zhixing decisively ran to the subway stairs in one breath, and then climbed to the exit of the subway station in a dozen breaths.

Only then did he shift his attention to the 3D model-like picture.

However, after just a short while, the model that was originally able to move was now in a strange posture and unable to move.

Zhixing zoomed in with two fingers and looked carefully at the model that was kept at a certain distance from him.

"No, it's not that it stopped moving on its own...it's that it's being forcibly suppressed and unable to move."

Seeing that the monster's arms were still instinctively struggling slightly, Zhixing could see the invisible force points on the arms.

Because of this, Zhixing also roughly guessed the other party's current situation.

"A familiar? It seems the power of this world is no match for a large number of people. Well, this is a turn-based game after all, so four people are already quite advantageous."

"I don't know whose shadow you are, but since you're so aggressive, let me see what's going on here."

Looking at the monster that maintained the posture of being captured, Zhixing glanced at the inside of the subway with some fear, then moved away a little, looking at the empty square where no one was still around, he couldn't help but focus more on the model.

Zhixing didn't have to wait too long before the scene in his sight changed.

As the monster was suddenly able to twist its body and was then caught again by a more powerful force, the entire model began to disappear from Paper Line's sight.

"Did it get eaten? Didn't it actually turn into a toy?"

Looking at the speed at which the monster disappeared, Zhixing knew very well that this should not be the speed at which the witch made the dolls. Otherwise, when Conan and the police accidentally entered, they would not have been able to wait for Zhixing to realize his ability and leave the witch's barrier.

"Is it because it's different from ordinary people? That's why it swallowed it all in one go?"

""

"No, eh? The one that was just trapped in the barrier should be a cognitive being, right? Can this thing also contact familiars and witches?"

It wasn't until he encountered a different treatment that Zhi Xing realized the difference of this monster.

"Although the little bear in the temple can also be seen in the barrier, it is just like in reality, just an illusion. It just happens to lead me to the corresponding temple."

"Then why can this monster be touched within the witch's barrier?"

Zhixing's gaze involuntarily turned to the subway staircase where the Impression Space was located, and then he quickly shook his head and looked away.

"No, it's too dangerous to go alone. I'd better wait until the Phantom Thieves start clearing the Impression Space and then take advantage of it."

Thinking of this, Zhixing remembered that the Phantom Thieves were going to destroy Kamoshida Hall today.

Zhixing first glanced at the time on his phone, and just as he was about to use the speed of time to calculate the real time, he found that he could not remember the minute he entered the impression space.

Zhixing sighed helplessly.

In Zhixing's imagination, Kamoshida's Palace is one of the conditions that can be put together to return, so Zhixing cannot miss this action.

But now Futaba Sakura and Boss Sakura are both missing, and they are suspected to be trapped in this memory space.

Zhixing doesn't want to use the lives of Sakura and the others to confirm whether the fate of this world is the orthodox ending or the if world where the mission fails.

Faced with such a choice, Zhixing thought for a long time before he found a solution when he put his hands in his pockets like Amemiya Ren.

"This map is... the pyramid map of the Futaba Palace, right? I remember it turned into a rough papyrus after returning to reality."

Zhixing looked at this product of the temple with surprise. It was probably hidden in his trouser pocket because it had been soaked in water and was not discovered by Zhixing. An idea came to his mind.

Zhixing checked the time on his phone and felt that there was not much time left, so he looked around for nearby convenience stores, then ran to the door of the convenience store. After looking back to confirm that there were no two Futaba leaves, he exited the navigation and returned to reality.

I casually walked into the convenience store and found the sticky notes I wanted in the area where students did their homework.

Then, after paying the bill at the paper shop and going out, he couldn't wait to return to the Impression Space again.

Back at the subway station, Zhixing began to write with the help of the voice input function of mobile phone No. 1.

"Impression Space Survival Rules:"

"1. This is the ocean of the subconscious of all people, so this city is restored at a 1:1 scale."

"2. The ocean's horizon does not exceed the ground level, so do not attempt to go to negative floors or subways where your altitude will decrease."

"3. The things restored in the Impression Space only have the most basic appearance, so food and electronic products cannot be used normally."

"4. When you see this note, do not move and go home immediately! If you can't remember the direction of your home, please stay away from the subway entrance and wait near the intersection. We will come to find you."

"5. Although the possibility is very small, if you find yourself in prison and see the old man with a long nose, please have your assistant go and ask the prisoner for help."

"6. The only ways to leave here are to return to the starting point and to exit in a safe place the same way you came in. Do not try to find other ways to leave."

"7. Right now, only my father and I exist on this land. If you encounter anyone else, unless they claim to be members of the Phantom Thieves, get away immediately!"

“8. Always listen carefully to the voice. When a voice confirms your choice, tear off the mask that appears on your face, even if it is connected to your flesh and blood.”

"9. Except for your own home, do not go to any public places that can be referred to as public places, such as banks, schools, courts, libraries, etc."

"10. If any situation that is not within the rules arises, please imagine me and ask for help. Believe firmly that miracles and magic do exist!"

"Sakai Yuuji stay."

Zhixing wrote down several impromptu rules, and then recited them to himself. After confirming that both Futaba and Boss Sakura could avoid most of the known dangers, he posted them on both sides of the subway station and even on the intersection near Sakura's house.

After exiting and re-entering again, and finding that the note was still in the memory space, Zhi Xing no longer waited for the missing Sakura and her daughter, turned back to reality, and got on the train to Shujin Academy.

Although it is not known whether the rules written on the note can help Sakura and her daughter, it is obviously impossible for a single person to guard the subway entrance and search for the two at the same time.

Especially for Futaba, a homebody who seldom goes out, Zhixing doubts whether the other party can find her home without the Internet.

But due to the urgency of both sides, Zhixing had already decided to ask the Phantom Thieves to help find them later, so he no longer thought about where Sakura and her daughter had gone, but continued to think about the second 3D model.

"In other words, ordinary attacks that would injure you will be absorbed by the witch's barrier."

"And if the danger is fatal, will you completely enclose the other party in the witch's barrier to achieve spatial separation and allow yourself to survive?"

Zhixing closed his eyes and recalled the only two situations that triggered this model.

A sword strike with the intention of silencing someone, and a cognitive existence that attacks without reason to destroy itself.

At other times, the closest things to these two situations are only Apacha's instinctive Muay Thai and Qiu Yu's sword moves that can control the force.

"Is it based on the premise of causing fatal injuries? Why does it seem so similar to the situation of reset?"

"Well, for someone like me who is weaker than the average person, it shouldn't be that difficult to pose a fatal threat."

Zhixing shook his head in self-mockery, then looked at the missed calls and text messages from more than ten minutes ago on No. 3's phone.

I clicked call back, but the call was still not connected.

Zhi Xing knew that this meant that the Phantom Thieves were heading to the palace without waiting for him.

Unfortunately, as a cloud player, Zhixing does not know the way to Kamoshida's palace, so without anyone to lead him, he will most likely not be able to find the location of the secret treasure. The fact that he is more likely to encounter other soldiers is enough to make Zhixing give up the idea of ​​entering the palace.

Soon, the train arrived at the station. Zhixing walked slowly towards the school. Just as he was about to enter the keyword "Kamoshida", a voice came out:

[That ownerless hunter from earlier could use more of them. This way, I can add more cognitive beings to my temple. Otherwise, it would be very inconvenient without these familiars.]

"Ownerless? Wait, what do you mean by adding other people to the temple?"

[That's what the letters mean. I have nothing here except a room to entertain you.]

"How could this be? Is it incomplete again?"

When Zhihang heard the result, he could guess the reason.

The temples of the locals here first distort a space of their own from the impression space, and then transform the cognitive existence that mistakenly enters it into the Cos they need.

And how could a hall that was restricted to witches possibly recruit and control other shadow beings?

Zhixing sighed and entered the entrance of the school hall through the app.

Looking at the silent castle, Zhixing looked at his cell phone that couldn't even function as a walkie-talkie, and helplessly looked up at the sky and began his long wait.

Just when Zhixing was thinking about how long to let the Phantom Thieves rest before entering the Impression Space copy.

Zhixing felt as if an earthquake had occurred in the castle in front of him, and the whole castle slowed down.

As if under stress, Zhi Xing saw that the witch's magic power that had originally entered the hall and was still surrounding him and used to block his sight suddenly spread outward rapidly.

Then the entire castle returned to peace and silence.

Zhixing stood outside the castle, staring at the witch's sudden change in a daze, and a possibility emerged in his mind.

"Little Bear, you're not going to eat the entire palace, are you?"

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

Zhixing's call did not receive a response from Shadow Bear, but the sound of footsteps behind him let Zhixing know the answer to the question.

"A familiar? In this situation, is it that the witch's barrier has trapped me and the entire palace within it, or is it that the witch's familiar can manifest in the cognitive world?"

Seeing several toy familiars appearing behind him and blocking the way back, Zhixing didn't dare to leave at will. He could only wait and see for the members of the Phantom Thieves to appear.

While Zhixing was waiting, he idly looked at the familiar that appeared behind him.
