Chapter 5 The End of Tragedy (k)

"Ji Ying?"

The first person to react to this name was not Li Shaoheng and Cen Xiangyun, nor the members of the Evil Ghost Pioneers, but An Yu, who had always been inconspicuous.

She looked at the mysterious woman in doubt and uncertainty, and her panicked expression was seen by everyone.

...This mysterious woman who had been mentioned many times by Xiaobai and speculated by the group leader to be a strange existence appeared in everyone's sight for the first time.

The woman named "Ji Ying" was dressed simply, and her slightly heroic face was filled with indifference. Her eyes were fixed in a certain direction, as if she was staring at something.

There seemed to be nothing in that direction, but scientists were the first to realize that was where the "spiritual traveler" was currently located.

"Finally, it appears..."

Ji Ying murmured in a low voice, with an inexplicable sadness and struggle deep in her voice.

"Hehehe... this day has finally come...

"But I can't hold on any longer..."

"I've seen you."

The artist looked at this strange woman and said in a deep voice.

His deep gaze seemed to want to imprint Ji Ying in his mind and outline all the memories about this woman in his subconscious.

Finally, he seemed to have read some information about "Ji Ying" and his eyes were filled with astonishment.

"Ji Ying?"

"No, that's not right...Your name is not Ji Ying..."

"You should be... "Shadow Festival"

But how is this possible!

This name, and the owner of this name, should have completely disappeared...

In a certain destroyed "chaos boundary", Yingjie and her team contained a strange disaster that had fully erupted, a terrible doomsday that was close to a "taboo" disaster.

Because the "chaos" has been destroyed, all records of the disaster have disappeared, along with the origin, process and results of the disaster, all of which have been reduced to ashes.

Which also includes the weirdness that causes the disaster and the existence that solves the disaster.

The reason why the artist can remember a little bit is that the disaster is related to the strange path of "death" he was exploring, and the aftermath affected some of his progress.

This is a disaster caused by a "high-risk weirdness" that cannot be restricted...

Even though artists and scientists regard the "high-risk weirdness" in Jiangcheng County as prey, it is because it is in a weak and dormant state. If it were not for this situation, they would not even dare to approach Jiangcheng County.

The existing "taboo" and "high-risk weird" holy remains basically do not come from the original body. They are either differentiated "eggs" or simply skeletons that exist by borrowing power.

For example, today's scientists, if someone killed her and peeled off the strange part, this part would also be called the "forbidden" holy remains.

but...

It is definitely different from the real "forbidden" holy relics.

Therefore, a truly "high-risk and strange" holy body is an irresistible temptation for any organization or any awakened person.

——The prerequisite is that you have the life to get it.

The high-risk weirdness in peak state and the high-risk weirdness in dormant state are completely different things.

The result of a complete outbreak of a high-risk strange disease is a disaster that destroys the continent. The most famous example is the "Black Death" disaster caused by the "plague" in Europe from 1347 to 1353 AD, which killed more than one-third of the population of Europe.

The disasters that the Shadow Festival team contained were only stronger than them, but they were forgotten in this chaotic era influenced by the "taboo", so they seemed less noticeable.

"..."

Ji Ying finally retracted her gaze and fell on the artist. Her unchanging eyes made it difficult to tell whether she confirmed or denied the artist's words.

But the artist suddenly thought of more. Since the "Shadow Festival" appeared here, it means that the weirdness has not been completely eliminated. At that time, the weirdness belonged to the "Death" path, which means...

The high-risk and weird things dormant in Jiangcheng County were the ones that caused the disaster at that time!

If, this is true...

The artist's body stiffened slightly, and the little remaining information of the obliterated "chaos" seemed to tell him a very terrifying fact.

A chilling possibility.

No one knows why the artist showed a slight expression of fear, even scientists are a little puzzled.

Although Ji Ying's appearance was not included in the scientists' "omniscience", her strength could be seen at a glance.

He is just a high-level awakener on the "Judgment" path. Since he is not on the weird side, there is not much possibility for him to control "power".

Even if we can take out sacrificial instruments that borrow power, how much power can compete with the existence of "taboo"?

The functions of powers are different. Those within the top fifty in the sequence, i.e. "high-risk weirdness", can possess powers, but there is obviously a big gap between them and taboos.

Scientists are now in a state of borrowing "forbidden" power. Even if they will have to bear a heavy price after it ends, that is not something they should consider now.

Just as the scientist once again cast his "omniscience" over Ji Ying in an attempt to find her flaws, he discovered an extremely shocking fact.

It's not that there are no flaws, but that there are flaws everywhere.

The other party was completely unprepared, and it seemed that he could easily take her life with just a casual move.

But is this really the case?

She separated the golden carriage with ease, and directed Li Shaoheng to perform actions beyond her "omniscience". All this showed that this woman was definitely not an ordinary upper-level awakener.

That is to say...

Just like her, he "borrowed" the power.

Only this reason can explain why "Ji Ying" can avoid incomplete "omniscience".

But...if you are not an awakened person on the weird side, can you also borrow power in this way?

The reason why Li Shaoheng did not play more cards even when the situation reached such an extreme point was because they simply did not have the same conditions as the "pioneers", and it was even more impossible for them to borrow power from the weirdness like them.

At this moment, the artist acted decisively, stretched out his fingers and pressed his forehead, and several pieces of "art" shattered. His body instantly grew a lot at this moment.

He transformed from a dwarf of just over 1.4 meters into a tall man of 1.8 meters.

The elegant temperament has not changed much, but it has become a little more crazy.

"——The power of "eternal life"."

The artist directly uses his trump card, and a constant flow of vitality emerges.

The next moment, he took out the sacrificial vessel that he had used against Luo Ling before, the "Withered Flower", and aimed it at everyone - to be more precise, at Ji Ying.

The artist knew very well that if his guess was true...

The woman before him was both a "shadow sacrifice" and not a "shadow sacrifice". She had to be killed with the most brutal means.

Otherwise, what will come is... unprecedented death threats.

Under the control of "eternal life", the artist can use the "Withered Flower" without limit at any extra cost, and any injuries he suffers will be healed in an instant, making him truly immortal.

Perhaps it was due to years of cooperation, but after the artist entered combat mode, the scientist finally calmed down and began to accept the fact that his "omniscience" was not omniscience.

Even if the information related to "power" cannot be predicted, it is still a power granted by "taboo". As long as it is not over-reliant, it can still exert unimaginable power.

The center of the battlefield is no longer the struggle between "Company" and "Pioneer", but the mysterious woman "Ji Ying" is in the vortex.

...or rather, "The Puppet's Ballad".

Ji Ying suddenly laughed.

No, that's not a laugh.

The mouth is cracked.

White mycelium leaped out from her cracked flesh and blood, spreading to the entire carriage. The heavy withering fell on her body, but it could only rot her constantly "growing" flesh.

Seeing this scene, the first person to collapse was An Yu, who had personally experienced the Baiyan Village incident. She fainted the moment she saw Ji Ying's skin and flesh torn apart. The shadow of the past once again enveloped her, causing her to lose consciousness.

Li Shaoheng and Cen Xiangyun next to them were equally terrified. As people who had solved strange cases before, they were very sure that this Ms. Ji Ying was indeed strange and there was no possibility of exception.

The most terrifying rule of strange events, please be careful of the strange things that are the same as humans, this is the most dangerous existence.

"At least dangerous and weird, or even... scarier!"

Fortunately, Ji Ying seemed to have no ill will towards them. Before the white mycelium spread, they had already taken the unconscious An Yu and hid near the bathroom, where the white mycelium would not be affected.

This is a battlefield belonging to the monsters, and weak humans can only tremble in fear.

Although Li Shaoheng is qualified to participate in this battle, he must take into account the unconscious newcomer and his niece who has little combat experience.

A restrained yet frantic battle took place in the golden train hovering in the "realm of nothingness", accompanied by terrible howling and ghost-like screams.

"Oh, and Miss Luo Ling... maybe she's not dead yet."

Li Shaoheng withdrew his gaze from the indescribable battlefield, picked up the phone with his slightly sweaty hands, and slid to a newly added number in the address book.

The artist and the scientist just communicated over the phone, which means that their location is the same as the interior of this train, both in the surface world, and they can talk directly without being restricted by "boundaries".

If Miss Luo Ling were still alive, or if her sister were still alive...she would probably answer the phone, right?

With the last glimmer of hope, Li Shaoheng made the call.

"Beep...beep..."

........

"Beep...beep..."

The old cell phone that fell to the ground was vibrating slightly, and it was extremely clear in the silent carriage, repeating itself irritably.

"It's so noisy..."

A lazy and soft voice sounded, and slender hands waved casually, and the old phone was shattered in an instant.

An enchanting woman with purple curly hair slowly stood up by holding on to the wall of the carriage, rubbing her sleepy eyes while looking for something in the carriage.

My mind is always dizzy, it seems that I have forgotten something important...

My throat feels sore, as if I just ate something terrible...

Finally, she saw the unfinished hot tea on the table, dragged her steps over and drank it all, which slightly relieved the dryness in her throat.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, the enchanting woman finally came to her senses, and memories kept popping out of her dizzy head.

Who am I? So many names are popping up in my mind...

Oh yes, Luo Ling...

Yes, I am Luo Ling.

and many more!

Luo Ling, who had recovered from his shock, shook his head. He inadvertently glanced at the purple figure reflected in the car window and couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.

"This is... me?"

Just like the "White Witch", although one can vaguely see Luo Ling's original appearance from the outline of her face, the two cannot be linked together at all because their temperaments are completely different.

The slightly upturned corners of her eyes gave her a hint of evil, and her long lavender hair fell from her temples, only slightly curled at the ends.

The most eye-catching thing is a pair of pitch-black eyes. Only if you look closely can you see a dot-shaped pupil in the middle of the eyes.

Although Luo Ling knew that her usual carefree appearance did not look like a lady at all, her current appearance exuded an inexplicable charm no matter what she did.

More memories came flooding back, as if being injected into this new body, and it seemed to be similar to when she first transformed into the "White Witch".

Luo Ling remembered everything.

besides...

"elder sister!"

Luo Ling turned her head suddenly, and there was no trace of her sister in the carriage. Only Elsa, who was unconscious in the corner, was there.

Elsa's wheelchair was left aside, and she herself collapsed on the ground, trying to stretch out her hands as if to grab something.
