That thing tried to disrupt my memory through fabricated dreams, making me confused about my past.

This method of playing with human memory and inner thoughts is really dirty.

Chapter 93: Go and invite the Lurker Ancestor

I can only say, worthy of being a high-end hunter...

Now that you realize that this is a dream, you should find a way to wake up.

Shen Qiyin had read science fiction novels and watched movies about dreams before. For example, the setting in Inception was to use falling from a high altitude, electric shock, physical pain, and even "death" to escape from dreams and return to reality.

Unfortunately, I can't make these choices in my dreams.

I’ve heard Tang Miao say before that when she was in the shelter, she encountered a “phenomenon”. The way that “phenomenon” manifested itself was that everyone had the same dream.

The way Tang Miao woke up at that time was to keep recalling the most familiar thing in his mind, and then get rid of the dream through the tactile sensation brought by touching it.

Well, if it were me, what would be the thing I’m most familiar with?

Shen Qinyin thought for a moment, then began to concentrate, staring straight ahead.

At the end of the empty road, there was suddenly a light sound of tires crushing dust.

A black object was slowly approaching her from the edge of her sight.

When the other party came within her recognizable range, Shen Qiyin was shocked to find that it was actually the wheelchair that she had "lived with" for the longest time in the past.

Watching the electric wheelchair slowly stop, Shen Qiyin felt helpless and amused after thinking for a moment.

It seems reasonable that the sickly disabled girl’s most familiar “companion” is her wheelchair.

Moreover, it came at the right time. In this dream, I was unable to move.

Shen Qinyin slowly crawled to the front of the wheelchair, grabbed the armrests with both hands, and her white toes wrapped in boots curled slightly because of the force. Her body climbed onto the wheelchair little by little under the drag of her arms, then turned her body sideways, and her perky buttocks successfully touched the soft cushion.

"Phew, that's good..."

Shen Qiyin adjusted her sitting position and let out a light breath.

It feels like dreams are more difficult than reality...

Just as she was thinking this, a cluster of light blue light suddenly broke into the edge of her vision.

She turned her head and saw a fluorescent blue butterfly fluttering its wings and dancing lightly in front of her.

Butterfly?

Why do butterflies appear in my dreams?

Shen Qinyin subconsciously raised her left hand, slightly raised her index finger, and let the butterfly rest on her fingertips.

A wonderful cool feeling came from the place where her fingertips touched and quickly spread to her whole body.

His consciousness was clearer than ever before, and his originally weak mental state was now as refreshed as if he had had a good sleep.

Then, she heard a voice—

【Qiyin■■I will be waiting for you in■■■......】

A gentle, sweet female voice.

Shen Qiyin was very sure that she had never heard such a voice before, and the people around her did not have such a voice.

However, it actually gave him a strong sense of familiarity.

As the voice fell, the road in front of them, which seemed to have no end, began to disintegrate like sand being blown away.

The scene became clear again, Shen Qinyin woke up from her dream and opened her eyes.

In front of me is the villa community that I am familiar with.

She felt a chill in her hands and lowered her head. It turned out to be the metallic sensation brought by the wheelchair armrests.

I am actually sitting in a wheelchair?

"Qiyin, we're almost there."

Tang Miao's voice came from my ear.

Shen Qinyin turned to look at her. It was clearly just a dream, but she had the illusion that the days were long and it seemed like a lifetime ago.

It felt like meeting Tang Miao was a thing of the past life.

"Are we almost there?" Shen Qinyin asked, tilting her head.

"You ask me?" Tang Miao twitched his lips, somewhat confused by the other party's inexplicable attitude. "Didn't you say we should go back to the villa?"

"..."

Seeing Shen Qiyin's face full of confusion, Tang Miao seemed to realize something and showed worry: "Wait, wait a minute, Qiyin, you just now, were you trapped in an illusion? Or is it cognitive pollution? But you clearly didn't react at all..."

"No," Shen Qiyin shook her head. "I probably had a dream, and that thing dragged me into the dream."

"Strange, no wonder..." Tang Miao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since more than ten minutes ago, you have been silent and didn't say a word. You didn't respond when I asked you questions, and you just kept floating forward..."

"When did the wheelchair under me come here?"

"Just now."

Xiaoxiang answered on Tang Miao's behalf, "One minute and 23 seconds ago, your wheelchair suddenly appeared at the gate of the villa complex. Based on the hunter's behavioral logic, there's an 88.65% chance that the location of the wheelchair was a trap.

But before I could warn you, you used your telekinesis to make it come over on its own."

Tang Miao asked nervously, "So, is this really a trap? The wheelchair couldn't have come here on its own. Something must have put it here, right? Could it be the Black Tide?"

"It's not a black tide." Shen Qiyin shook her head, her expression also full of confusion. "I'm not quite sure what's going on at the moment. I'll investigate it later when I have a chance.

The most important thing right now is to get through this crisis.”

"Well, you're right, but..."

Tang Miao swallowed his saliva, and the fingers on Shen Qiyin's shoulders trembled slightly unconsciously, "Qiyin, why should we go back to the villa? Do you want to..."

"It's just what you think."

Shen Qiyin nodded, her eyes dark and gloomy: "It's time to ask the Lurker Ancestor to come out of the mountains."

"As expected..." Tang Miao muttered, worry and uneasiness flickering in his eyes. "But will it really work? The Lurker and Green Haze were fighting between two entities. The Black Tide isn't a physical entity. Will the Lurker be hostile to it?"

"Do you see the fog around you?" Shen Qiyin looked around and said slowly, "I have a guess. This fog, like the black tide, comes from some very terrifying 'creature'. That 'creature' is hostile to the source of the fog, so it devours the fog.

Since they are regarded as "living things", the strategy of driving the tiger to devour the wolf can definitely be used. When a prey wants to survive in a desperate situation, the best way is to attract another hunter and let them fight to the death.

And in Yunlan City, the strongest 'Hunter' I can find is the one in our basement."

"Uh......"

Tang Miao lowered his head, the worry on his face growing instead of diminishing.

Shen Qiyin smiled at her and comforted her, "I know what you are worried about. A terrifying 'natural disaster' that easily destroyed the defenses of an entire province and an entity that is huddled in the basement and used as a 'tool' by us cannot be compared in any way.

In fact, I have already said 'hello' to Kuroshio's clone, of course, it was not very friendly.

According to the intelligence sent by the occupied provinces, Yunlan City is facing a clone of the source of the black tide. Since it is a clone, its strength should theoretically be reduced.

Plus, when I used the evil-repelling jade pendant to drive away the black tide just now, I roughly estimated the opponent's strength. If the lurker is really as powerful as I imagined, then our chances of survival are still quite high."

"Ah, is that so..."

Tang Miao wasn't sure whether Shen Qinyin was comforting herself or if it was true.

The dark clouds on her face grew thicker and thicker. She was not afraid of death, she just didn't want to see Shen Qinyin die in her arms.

If she could use her death to help Shen Qinyin survive this crisis safely, she would definitely choose to do so with her eyes closed.

But there are no ifs in reality.

"Don't make that expression."

Shen Qiyin suddenly raised her hand and placed her right hand on the back of Tang Miao's hand on her left shoulder.

She looked up at Tang Miao and winked at her playfully, "We basically go through this every time, right? We're very experienced in gambling with our lives. We have to believe that the goddess of fate is on our side. Similarly, you have to believe in me."

"..."

Faced with Shen Qiyin's wink and comfort, Tang Miao's originally anxious heart calmed down a lot.

Chapter 94 Arriving at the basement, the black tide appears!

Faced with Shen Qiyin's wink and comfort, Tang Miao's originally anxious heart calmed down a lot.

It's really strange. They knew very well that the black tide they were facing was an existence that they could never resist, and they also knew very well that they would probably die tonight.

But even so, when the girl said "believe me", Tang Miao, who had already prepared to stay with Shen Qinyin, suddenly felt safe and confident.

"You girl..."

Tang Miao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, and stretched out his other hand in front of Shen Qinyin. His index finger gently hooked up the other's drooping hair, and unconsciously curled it.

"There are no ifs in reality, but if we really survive this time, can you let me do your hair every morning?"

Shen Qiyin nodded slightly and said with a smile: "If you don't mind the trouble, I have no objection."

"Why would I find this kind of thing troublesome? As long as the object is you, I can always..."

"I can also do your hair job."

Tang Miao was about to reveal her true feelings further when Xiaoxiang, who had been quiet beside her, suddenly interrupted her as if he had just reconnected to the Internet.

"My processing unit can help me quickly learn the unique braiding techniques of any country or region in the world, and I can match your clothes for you by analyzing your mood, weather, travel plans, schedule, etc."

Xiaoxiang placed her fingers on her chest, her golden pupils narrowed slightly, as if she had thought carefully before saying this.

Tang Miao felt a little speechless.

If I remember correctly, this is the second time Xiaoxiang interrupted me at this critical moment.

Shen Qiyin nodded at Xiaoxiang in a casual manner: "Okay, our maid robot is omnipotent, I know this very well."

"The term 'omnipotent' is a bit biased. As far as I know, I can't pluck the stars from the sky with my own abilities. However, according to data analysis, many women, when the opposite sex confesses their love, ask if they are willing to pluck the stars from the sky for them. The opposite sex's answer is usually a clumsy lie like 'I do'..."

"Now's not the time to be talking about these things, you stupid robot!"

Tang Miao glared at her unhappily. If it weren't for the fact that this artificial idiot's body was made of alloy, she would definitely have kicked her.

The fog suddenly surged at this moment, and Shen Qinyin's perception network keenly captured the extremely threatening creatures appearing in the fog around her.

It is not uncommon for strange beasts to appear in areas not covered by the black tide.

"Watch out, those guys are coming."

Shen Qiyin took out the Holy Exorcist Spear, her eyes moved, and the mental barrier used to isolate the fog began to fluctuate with even more powerful force.

Tang Miao also tightly grasped the Evil-Destroying Holy Spear given to her by Shen Qinyin, showing a vigilant look.

As the life form in the perception network got closer and closer, Shen Qiyin suddenly raised her gun and aimed, emptying her bullets at the faintly distorted figure in the fog.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

Six shots in succession accurately hit the opponent's body.

In the perception network, the breath quickly disappeared, but the next second, more strange beasts rushed towards them.

"Xiaoxiang, please cover us for the last leg of the journey."

"receive."

Xiaoxiang's left arm ejected an alloy electric blade at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. Circles of electricity circulated and surged, and a torrent of scorching flames quickly enveloped the entire blade.

"My sensors have detected eleven threatening life forms, but due to their unknown characteristics, I seem unable to kill them."

"It doesn't matter. Just burn them to ashes. Just don't let them get close to us."

"Understood, switch to annihilation mode."

Xiaoxiang's golden eyes were suddenly covered with a thin layer of red. The electromagnetic rifle on his right arm popped out quickly. After a short period of accumulating power, several bullets tore through the fog like a lightning arc, turning half of the bodies of the nearest humanoid monsters into meat paste!

But even though these strange beasts only had half of their bodies left, the rest of their bodies could still move. Even if one of them only had two legs left, it was still running madly towards Shen Qinyin and the others.

"Flame thrower ready, unlock functional restrictions and execute scorched earth operations."

After saying that, several launch holes suddenly extended from Xiaoxiang's waist and back, and these launch holes spewed out colorful silk-like flames, like a pair of burning hot wings!

After a brief accumulation of energy, the thrusters on Xiaoxiang's back suddenly spurted out a tongue of water-blue fire, and her elegant alloy body rushed into the fog like a meteor!
