A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

Second is the location, whose room it looks like.

Finally, there are the characters, there are only two of them, one is myself and the other is unknown to me.

The person in front of me looks a bit strange, with animal ears and a tail, but the texture feels surprisingly real, as if the person really has furry pointed ears and a tail.

Then besides this unknown person, there is another person, that is himself. He does not remember his own name. He only remembers that when he and the mercenary called each other, he was called ghost.

'So should I say something now? '

He thought this because he didn't know what he was, and he hesitated about what was going on with him now. After all, no matter how you looked at it, this room couldn't be his. He was the one who came now, in someone else's room.

So is it better to ask out loud, or is it better to just stay silent?If you speak, you may risk exposing some of your own problems that you don't know about. If you stay quiet, you can pretend to be an expert without speaking, but the plot will not progress.

However, this hesitation did not last long, because the kind stranger in front of him made the choice for him in the next moment - the other party greeted him with a kick that seemed very powerful.

An incorporeal ghost will block the opponent's attack. It may sound a bit unclear, but when faced with a sudden attack, it's like someone who suddenly stretches his fingers to his eyes and instinctively closes his eyes. His body automatically raises his hand. I want to block it with my elbow.

But the moment he raised his hand, his brain had already judged the result - compared with the opponent's speed, he was unable to defend himself and had no time to block it.Judging from the sound and speed of the limbs, if he was kicked, he would definitely fly out directly.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you resist such an attack, your bones will be shattered on the spot. If your luck is even worse, it is possible to open a new gear directly on the spot.

In the almost instantaneous time when the attack hit, he didn't have time to think about why someone who didn't look that strong or even weak could be so exaggerated that he could be kicked to death.

He didn't want to die, so he had to block the opponent's attack.

What comes to mind is that he has always had the ability to [heal], but [healing] can also be transformed into [protection] as long as the way it is used is changed.

boom--!

-------------------------------------

What on earth is that?

The real feeling after the hit made Texas even more unable to understand what it was.

The moment before the kick was about to hit, Texas had thought in his mind whether this thing could be the ghost named Yabu that Lapland said.

But this idea only appeared briefly, because not long ago, Lapland always repeated that she could not see ghosts, which had planted seeds in her cognition, and the knowledge that she could not see ghosts had already been It had an impact on her, so she kicked the thing directly without any intention of restraining herself.

If it's a ghost, it shouldn't be able to hit it, right?

But she missed the kick.

Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, Texas could vaguely see that in the area where he kicked, light green light solidified into a palm-sized, crystal-clear barrier that blocked the attack.

However, Texas couldn't see clearly, because the opponent was instantly kicked out by him, and in the direction of the kick, he leaned directly into the sofa, leaving only half of his body still on the sofa. Outside.

"...?"

So what exactly is this?

She didn't feel a trace of the opponent's weight after the kick.

It looked like he was strong enough to push the person directly into the sofa, but Texas knew that was not the case, but that the other person had no physical body and penetrated directly into the sofa.

Weightless, insubstantial, just like...the ghosts described in various stories.

"Yabu?"

"Who? Me?" Yabu didn't understand why he could pass directly into the sofa, but when he heard the other party calling to him, he still tried to stand up.

He hasn't fully adapted to this body that can't touch anything. When he wants to get up, his hands still follow the logic of behavior when they can touch things. He supports the ground a few times, but his hands always go straight into the floor. , which made him look like he was stuck in the sofa and kept shaking his hands around but couldn't get out. It looked a bit funny.

But fortunately, Yabu's adaptability is quite strong. After trying it a few times, the pilot roughly understood how to use this body, gave up the supporting behavior, and instead let himself do sit-ups like sit-ups. Floated out of the sofa.

"Just in case, let me say it first. I don't have any ill intentions, and I am also very confused. I don't know what is going on now, so can we not communicate with physical conflicts." Yabu said almost the moment he came out. , and made a pause gesture towards Texas.

It's always good for him to show that he can communicate and has no ill intentions. After all, the plot of being kicked to death just after waking up is a bit too exciting. This kind of abstract game opening is enough once, and then It's really not necessary to do it a few more times.

Although Yabu has roughly guessed that his current setting may exist in the form of some kind of spirit body. Judging from the fact that he has penetrated into the sofa, physical attacks should be ineffective against him, but who knows what the plot is now and which studio. , if there is a sudden change to Ghostbusters or something else, then this one may really have to be sent.

Seeing that the other party nodded, seemingly agreeing to Yabu's request for a friendly exchange, Yabu relaxed a little and decided to say something first to show friendship.

"Okay, let me go first and talk about my problem first."

*The principle of the barrier is to solidify the ability originally used to heal damage, and treat incoming attacks as damage to heal, achieving the effect of damage absorption.

Chapter 74 Strange name

Maybe it’s because you need to be in constant contact with all kinds of people at work, so talking to Texas is a very effortless thing. Basically, it’s all simple questions and answers.

"Can I ask you your name first? It will be much easier to address me when communicating this way."

"Texas."

"So, Texas, where are we now?"

"My home." Texas had a strange feeling in her heart, but at this moment all her focus was shifted to communicating with this ghost, and she could not express the feeling for the time being.

"Hmm...do I look like some kind of intruder to you? I know this might be an odd question, but I really don't know the answer."

"To a certain extent, no, I brought you in." Texas held up the pendant and shook it against the cloth a few times. It was indeed her who brought the pendant into the room, so it was the same as the pendant. The cloth that binds the pendant can also be seen as being brought in by her.

"Then why did you hit me?" There was no sense of accountability in Yao Bu's voice. It could be heard that he really just wanted to know why he was attacked.

"Because you suddenly appeared behind me, and you look a little bit..." Texas wanted to use a less offensive word to describe it, but looked at the ghost in front of him. Physically, Texas ended up giving a not-so-polite word, "...very weird."

In other words, weirdness and tragedy are more appropriate.

There were vertical cracks across the eyes, a big hole in the chest, green lines all over the body, and some random gaps and holes on the hands, feet, and even the abdomen and neck.

These messy holes are different from the cracks on his eyes and the big holes in his chest. The latter are pitch black and you can't see what's inside. These densely packed holes are like piercing and digging out part of his body, which can be seen through. Kong Dong looks directly behind him.

Is it some kind of price that Lapland said?Or was it always like this before?

"I don't know what I look like now. I didn't mean to be like this." Yabu looked down at the mess on his body, and tried to cover the big hole and some holes in his chest with his hands, but the tatters After all, there are still too many places, and no matter how hard I try with my hands, I can't completely cover them.

"I'm really sorry if this look scared you. I promise I didn't mean to do this. I can try to bury my body underground if you need it."

"It's okay, it's just a little strange at first glance, that's all."

The other party just looked a little strange at first sight, but after looking at it for a long time, it was actually not bad. After all, the other party looked more like a simple damage, and there was no feeling of flesh and blood or severed limbs. You could still roughly tell the appearance of the person, plus From this short exchange, the other party's way of speaking, voice, and temper also made him seem much more familiar.

And besides, whether you talk to the air or only reveal half of your body or only your head, it's obviously weirder.

Texas shook her head to indicate that she was fine. She looked at the rag in front of her that looked like it had been torn and cut by a naughty child. She rarely asked about the other party's condition during the conversation: "...Are you tired? "

This inquiry was not entirely out of concern for the stranger, but after putting myself into the other person's place, I began to feel a sense of fatigue empathically, feeling tired of the body that was too tragic.

"A little bit, but it's basically no problem." Although Yabu looked like he was dying, he actually just felt a little tired. "Texas, can I ask you one more question? The last one, I'll change it later. You come and ask me.”

"You can ask as many questions as you want, it doesn't matter." Texas pulled out a stool with her backhand and sat down. Her original task was to tell Yan Bu what she knew, so naturally she wouldn't even have the patience to answer questions. No.

She habitually thought about what the other party might ask, and prepared a brief and clear answer in her mind. However, when Yabu really asked the question, she was still briefly stunned.

"Zhabu, is that my name?"

"...What?" Texas heard the other party's question clearly, but she couldn't help but ask again.

The strange and ominous premonition that she had suppressed before came to her mind again, and as she thought about it more deeply, she finally brushed away the dust on the surface and noticed the source of the feeling. What exactly is it.

When Lapland came to find him before, Lapland showed behavior of talking to the ghost Yabu. That means that Yabu in front of him should know who she is and know where she is. It was her own room, but just now Yabu acted as if she didn't recognize her, asking her who she was and where this place was.

When Yabu came out of the sofa, when faced with Texas's reaction to calling him, he responded as if he was not sure whether he was being called.

Could it be that......

"Don't you...don't remember? Amnesia?" Texas thought of Lapland once saying that Yabu seemed to have amnesia, and used this to make associations and guesses.

"Well, it's like this. I may have forgotten a lot of things, and I can't even remember the name." Yabu sighed helplessly, but he didn't seem to feel lost or sad because of it, "So wait if If you have any questions, I may not be able to answer them because I don’t know much, so I’m sorry.”

"Za Bu's name is correct, but that's not the point right now. I have a more important thing to ask you. Be sure to answer me seriously." Texas' expressionless face showed this. With a hint of solemnity, after seeing Yabu nodding in agreement, she pursed her lips nervously and asked tentatively:

"Lapland, do you know?"

Please, this is the only thing, don't let anything go wrong.

"Oh, I still remember this."

Yabu's answer made Texas feel relieved. After all, if something went wrong, she really couldn't imagine what Lapland would become.

But before the burden on her shoulders was completely lifted, Yabu's additional explanation immediately made her heart drop to the bottom.

"After all, it's a pretty famous place name. If I remember correctly, it should be in Finland. It seems to be said to be the hometown of Santa Claus."

-------------------------------------

*'Lapland, Texas... So the names of people in this place are all four-letter place names? '

*Yu Bu thought about whether he should do as the locals do and give himself a place name like Naples.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 75 I forgot that I lost my memory. Will I recover from my amnesia?

The hometown of Santa Claus?Finland?Lapland is a place name?

I can obviously understand every word, but when connected together, Texas feels like a mess of things sewn together.

This is nothing. This is simply not right. Is my memory confused? The name Lapland is obviously...

"You mean, the name Lapland is actually the name of a person, and I am very familiar with her, but I am just having trouble with my memory now?"

"Yes, do you really not remember Lapland? This is really important. If you think about it again, do you really just...don't remember it at all?"

Is human memory really that fragile?How could it be possible that not even a single fragment could be left behind, as if the data had been completely cleared without any trace of recovery?

"I'm really sorry." Yabu shook his head apologetically.

But the answer seems to be yes, yes, memory is just that fragile.

"She is a woman with silver-white hair and about the same height as me."

"White hair...does she have horns? Red ones?"

"Horn? No, no, no, she is from the Luper tribe." Texas gestured to his ears with his hand, trying to retell Lapland's appearance, hoping that Yabu could think of something, "Have you thought of anything? ?"

"I have really thought about it. In my memory, I know a person with white hair and long horns. Other than that, I don't know anyone with white hair. This is even the first time for me to hear about the Lupo tribe. I I really want to help you, but I really can’t remember.”

If he has it, he has it, if he doesn't, he doesn't have it. He can't lie and claim that he has this kind of memory just because the other person needs it, because he still doesn't know why the other person wants him to have this kind of memory so much, and lying about it may make things worse.

"Listen to me first, okay? There is something wrong with my memory. This is an unchangeable fact. I will keep trying to think about it, but for now, I can't think of anything even if I try hard to think about it. If we can’t solve it for the time being, let’s not dwell on this problem for now, how about we calm down and change directions?”

Yao Bu could tell that the other person really wanted him to remember something. He was really trying hard, but this kind of thing was not something that could be done instantly with hard work.

"For example, how about Texas sitting on the sofa first? Try to tell me why I must think of Lapland. Maybe you can think of some other solutions."

"...I'm sorry, I'm a little anxious." Seeing that Zhuo Bu, who had lost his memory, should usually be on the side of being comforted, at this moment, he calmed down his own emotions, and Texas also realized that he What an unreasonable request you just made.

Forcing a person who has just lost his memory to try to remember is too much.

After realizing her mistake, she did not hesitate to express her apology. She sincerely admitted that she had lost control of her emotions just now. While organizing her words in her mind, she thought about solutions to the current situation based on Yao Bu's suggestions.

"How should I put it? You and Lapland should have been very good friends before."

It was so good that it could be described as dependent. She had never seen Lapland value anything so much.

Texas listened to Yabu's words, walked to Yabu and sat on the sofa. I have to say that this was indeed somewhat useful, and it would indeed give people some relief after sitting down.

"She doesn't have many friends as far as I know, and there are even fewer like you. You are very important to her. If she knows that you have lost your memory, she might do something... crazy Things, so..." Texas wanted to continue, but an idea suddenly occurred to her, so she temporarily stopped her voice and pursued that idea seriously.

Thinking about it in another direction, this was a suggestion that Yabu used to appease her, but for Texas at this moment, it did give her an idea.

Trying to dismantle your own thoughts, you will find that although you want Yabu to think of Lapland in terms of expression, but in the final analysis, you want Yabu to think of Lapland. Don't let your unstable emotions cause any problems due to Yabu's amnesia.

The memory will not come back for a while, then...

"Zhang Bu, can you pretend that you don't have amnesia?"

"Ok?"

"Just pretend that I haven't forgotten Lapland."

After all, the purpose of requiring Yabu to remember Lapland is to prevent Lapland from causing trouble due to Yabu's amnesia. Therefore, if Lapland does not know that Yabu has lost his memory, the effect will be the same. .

The memory cannot be restored for the time being, so pretending that there is no amnesia may be an option.

"Texas, can we do it another way?"

Seeing that Texas did not veto it, but raised his chin to signal him to continue speaking, Yabu continued:
