Mist

Chapter 73

The two people didn't know where they came from, and everyone increased their vigilance.

Upon seeing this, the chubby middle-aged man smiled: "Are you the guardians of our Hua Guo Tianqi?"

Song Qinglan asked not very politely: "Are you?"

The middle-aged man said: "Don't be nervous, we are just passing by."

In this ‘Cube’ that connects all time and space, it’s understandable to avoid talking about the era from which one comes from.

It's just that, as guardians, the guardians of any age and world can be sure of each other's identities-they are all hijacked by the sky to do the task.

These two people don't seem to be like this.

Different from the agile and fearlessness of all guardians, their temperament looks more peaceful and makes people feel less nervous, as if this place is not a dangerous place for them.

The gentle man wearing glasses saw the marks on the ground and asked: "I noticed that the room is decreasing. There are more and more marks like this. Are you finishing the stitching?"

Those markings were made during the rainy season, and no one could understand him except him and the beard who didn't know where he was.

I don't know what the visitor meant, and everyone did not speak.

The unfamiliar gentleman didn't mind their attitude, and smiled gently: "If it's you, then you are really amazing."

Looking over the people standing in the room, the gentle man saw the monsoon rain sitting on the floor.

Song Qinglan followed his gaze and frowned deeply.

During the monsoon rains, his face was pale and panic, and I don't know why it looked worse than before the rest. He sat on the floor and didn't even stand up, just staring at the two outsiders for a moment.

No, it's precisely this outsider with glasses.

This is rarely the case during the rainy season, and he even belongs to the completely inactive type in social interaction.

Not only Song Qinglan, but also Duan Wen and Zhou Mingxuan found something wrong during the monsoon rains.

"Counselor Season?"

This outsider is nearly middle-aged and well-educated.

Facing such a straight line of sight and expression, he also nodded politely to the monsoon season.

Seeing the black-and-white game console in his hands during the monsoon rains, he also said: "Coincidentally, my son also has a similar game console in this little brother's hand."

The game console during the rainy season is very old.

It didn't belong to his time, it was a retro product.

Do these two outsiders come from a long time ago?

Everyone has such guesses in their hearts.

"It's a coincidence." He said during the rainy season.

For some reason, his original cold voice seemed to be covered with a thick film, which was not ugly, but it made people hear it indistinctly.

During the rainy season, they sat there looking at each other in a daze.

It seems that like many people who are lost in this "Cube", exhaustion is on the verge of collapse.

The two said that they were passing by, and they really just passed by. They had no other purpose, and there was nothing else to say to the four guardians of the sky of China.

They removed the blue orb floating in the air, and after looking at the surrounding colors, they chose a door to open.

The chubby middle-aged man walked first, crawling quite hard and moving slowly.

The gentle man with glasses waited patiently.

As if noticing something, he looked back at the monsoon in the corner.

During the monsoon rains, he lowered his head, his thin profile was straight, but he didn't look at him anymore.

It's just that he is still holding the game console tightly in his hand, so hard that his fingertips turn white.

The companion called him: "Lao Sheng! Come here!"

The man said: "Come on!"

"Beep—"

The round hole is closed.

Two outsiders disappeared behind the wall.

"What do these two people do?" Duan Wen was puzzled, "Why are you hanging around here like shopping?"

"I don't know." Zhou Mingxuan also felt strange and joked, "Maybe it's a folk traverser, haven't you heard of it? Our mysterious profession is actually the dream of many people. There are many people who make illegal transitions in private. Gone."

During the rainy season, he said: "Let's go."

The voice during the monsoon rains is much better than when I spoke before, and it still sounds a bit wrong.

When he raised his head, everyone realized that his face was almost transparent. Had it not been for the red at the end of his eyes, he would have looked calmer, sensible, and elusive than ever.

Duan Wen: "Counselor Ji, you don't look very good."

Zhou Mingxuan: "Isn't this just here? Let's rest for a while."

"How are you?"

Song Qinglan asked, obviously not agreeing to leave in the current state during the monsoon rains.

They just argued about this issue.

"I'm fine." He said as usual during the rainy season.

Song Qinglan saw him stand up and went to grab the blue ball that bounced back into the center of the room.

Suddenly, I felt that the back of the man with glasses in the white shirt looked familiar—if he was wearing the white shirt they met for the first time during the rainy season.

Song Qinglan was keenly aware of something strange.

The reaction during the monsoon rains may be related to that person. That person may come from an earlier age. Could it be that he met each other during the monsoon rains when he was performing the mission of the recorder? Song Qinglan wanted to ask, but during the rainy season, a new round door had already been opened.

Regardless of Song Qinglan's strong request after letting him take a rest, she didn't mean to discuss it.

In the rainy season, inform them: "Go here."

Song Qinglan sank the emotions in her eyes and told her teammates: "Go."

Starting this time, the splicing is obviously faster and more efficient than before.

During the monsoon rains, apart from calculations and experiments, there was almost nothing to say all the way, and I didn't say a word other than the task.

Everyone felt his difference, and thought it was because he was too eager to complete the task. Only Song Qinglan noticed that during the monsoon rains, she seemed to have suppressed the urge to turn back several times, even though the room had no idea where it was moved.

"Yellow." He spoke mechanically during the monsoon rain, "20th."

They left the yellow room, which was joined by 20 rooms, and prepared to re-enter a new blue room.

The blue room in front of me is densely engraved with marks, coming from different people and different cultures, almost filling up the blank wall where I can see.

"Beep—"

Someone at the other end also opened the round door.

It was a group of strangers who passed through, looking at each other through the blue room.

With the reduction of rooms, every room with many marks may be the last one, and the seven teams ushered in the first team of positive competitors.

A recorded image of a group of people is left in the blue room.

It seemed that it was the team that was staring at them.

"You give up!" someone yelled in English, "We have already figured out the time difference in this blue room, so we came back specially. It has a better chance of winning together than you!"

Duan Wen replied: "Why should we give up?!"

The other party took out the gun: "Please?"

Duan Wen: "Fuck!"

"Let them." Monsoon said, "This is not the last one."

Song Qinglan asked: "What did you see?"

During the rainy season, he said: "The ‘29’ mark inside is not the one I used to confuse people. So it’s definitely not the last blue room."

They were played once in the blue slow room, and they retaliated against each other a little during the monsoon rains.

It's just two ordinary Arabic numerals. When it was written during the monsoon, it imitated the handwriting of the group of people. At least for people other than him, there is no difference.

But if you say no during the rainy season, you are definitely not.

Duan Wen immediately turned around and told the group: "It's for you!"

During the rainy season, another path has been re-selected: “There is purple here, and the number of stitched pieces is second only to blue. Let’s hurry up.”

Everyone immediately followed.

Next, the seven teams experienced new occupations and grabs.

They gave up red, yellow, and purple one after another. Each time they gave up. Duan Wen and Zhou Mingxuan became more and more anxious, but they kept their faces calm during the monsoon rains. After walking down a few laps, it was obvious that the number of rooms had become fewer, and they met Lin Xinlan again.

The nine teams gathered together, and luck was not even better than them.

"54 in red!" Lin Xinlan shouted to them in the room below, "Team Song, who do you think can accomplish the task with you or me?"

Lin Xinlan's teammate made a mistake, and he has been wandering around the red.

It seems that Lin Xinlan has also gone to the central block. Although he doesn't understand the operation principle here, he has guessed the way of splicing through the analysis of the monsoon season and the reduction of rooms that he knows.

Song Qinglan looked down at them and said coldly: "It's not me, it's us. We will complete the task."

Lin Xinlan smiled: "Really, if not, do you want to make a bet?"

This sounds familiar.

As expected of the previous double-lan combination, Song Qinglan also said this to Monsoon.

Lin Xinlan: "If you lose, you promise me one thing. If I lose, I will tell you a secret."

Song Qinglan said: "Not interested."

Lin Xinlan didn't care about his attitude, and said, "Greeting to Consultant Ji for me."

Everyone: "..."

Stand up during the rainy season: "Go away."

The round door is closed.

The round door on the other side opened, revealing two identical faces: "Team Song!!"

It is Tang Qi and Tang Le!

Tang Le saw the captain and everyone in the squad running with tears, and quickly climbed down the ladder.

Tang Qi followed closely, but asked, "Where is Li Chun?"

Song Qinglan looked serious and sensed something was wrong: "Counselor Ji said you are with him."

Tang Qi gritted his teeth and said: "Fuck, he is kind of going to help an injured girl, and he has gone away!"

Everyone: "..."

It is indeed Li Chun.

Everyone tweeted and spit out Li Chun who was not here, and even Song Qinglan was a little angry-seeing the moment to complete the task, if according to the rules of the task given by the sky, the person who died and was eliminated would be disqualified from the task. If something happens to Li Chun, he will not get the settlement of victory.

During the monsoon rains, I turned on the communicator, looked at the simulated cube he drew on the holographic projection, and then interrupted their complaints: "Now we have six people, so we can leave separately."

Song Qinglan: "Leave apart?"

"Leave apart?!"

"Not suitable!"

"In case someone has an accident, how do you meet?"

"I will send everyone a copy of the mockup."

Everyone can see his anxiety during the rainy season, and everyone can see that his condition is very bad.

But they all know that during the monsoon rains, it is definitely not a person who is anxious and irresponsible.

I saw Monsoon and told everyone sensibly and calmly: "We have already analyzed that this is a multiplayer mission. A team with a large number of people is easier to win. There were too many rooms and insufficient staff. Now we have six people. , Enough for six people to walk each line separately. There are very few rooms around, so you can explore each other's paths and change lines flexibly by walking separately."

"Yes." Song Qinglan pondered for a few seconds. "Unlike them, we do not have a competitive relationship with each other. There is only one goal to go separately, which is to splice each line. Don't worry if you are blocked, you are ensuring your safety. In any case, give up the current route and go to another one at any time."

If you drag on, you will really lose.

This is undoubtedly the way to win with a risky move.

Everyone on the seventh team is not a coward. They have already paid too much for victory and for going home.

The mimic map of the monsoon rain was sent to everyone's communicator. The colors around the room were uneven, and they were divided into two teams and scattered.

Say goodbye to each other in the current room.

A group of Duan Wen, Tang Qi and Tang Le.

A group of Zhou Mingxuan, Song Qinglan, and Monsoon.

After marching into the second room, Zhou Mingxuan separated from them.

Song Qinglan separated from the fourth room during the rainy season. After walking through the three rooms alone, they met and separated again in the new room.

The reduction of rooms makes it easier for them to meet up than before.

When I met once, Duan Wen said: "The grandsons of the nine teams, I have met twice, why didn't I meet those two people?"

He was talking about the two people who were not like the traversers.

When Song Qinglan glanced at Monsoon, the latter had already recovered her calm, and said lightly: "I won't encounter it again."

They continued their tasks, repeating the process of separating, meeting, and exchanging routes from each other.

They will meet different teammates in different rooms, and they will also encounter more and more dense crossers.

Finally, they found that the blue room had disappeared.

On the six sides of the cube, one side of the circular hole turned into a dark void when opened, and at the same time, there was a paragraph of text splicing the blue room.

During the monsoon rain, before entering the last room with a red ball, I ran into Song Qinglan again.

The room records the process of a traverser before his death.

She knelt on the ground, and the skin slowly peeled off from her body until the bone marrow, layer by layer, faded into a snow-white skeleton.

The painful cry of her death, the short blond hair falling from her scalp, and the gun in her hand...all made her identify during the rainy season.

After Zoe separated from him, he chose the red room again.

She was sassy and brave, but failed to make it to the end.

The two stood together on the ladder, and Song Qinglan's reaction during the monsoon rains was all in sight.

Song Qinglan grabbed his shoulder and said solemnly: "Don't look. Change me to this line."

It doesn't care about it during the rainy season.

When the two were so close, he said, "Team Song, I reminded you."

Song Qinglan suffocated her breath.

The other party's state is not good, it can be said that it is unprecedentedly bad in a short period of time.

Song Qinglan saw the cold sweat on the other's white forehead, the slender eyelashes that quivered gently, and the determination to go all out regardless.

"During the rainy season!"

Before he could stop him, he quickly climbed down the ladder during the monsoon rain and entered the room by himself.

"Beep—"

The round door is closed.

The ball in his hand bounced back to its original place during the monsoon rains.

Leaving during the rainy season, Song Qinglan watched as she was moved to another direction: "..."

In these labyrinth-like cubes, there is no longer any figure in the monsoon.

In the darkness, new figures gradually emerged.

The teammates in the center block were looking forward to it, and finally waited for another teammate who completed the splicing.

The man was tall and straight, with fair skin, and easily attracted everyone's attention in the countless brilliant spots of light.

"It's the season consultant!" Duan Wen shouted, "Hey, the Song team is still missing!"

In addition to Duan Wen, Tang Qi, Tang Le, and Zhou Mingxuan were all present at the scene, and there were more than a dozen strange traversers.

They are all people who have completed the splicing.

Approaching during the rainy season, there was some doubt in his expression.

He already knew that in the movement of the room, someone would die due to a calculation error in the time difference, and some of the traversers would be counted as cooperatively completing tasks. The chance that the splicing of the six timelines will be completed by the Sky Seven team is very small. But he didn't understand how to settle this so-called Super S Grade multiplayer mission.

People whispered in twos and threes.

Every time a traverser walks into the center block, their look changes.

Everyone stood together and waited for a while before Song Qinglan walked out of the darkness—he completed the last color stitching.

"Congratulations, you have completed the new Super S Grade mission, [Cube]."

Unpretentiously, the gentle female voice of the sky rang in everyone's ears, fell into the ears, and automatically switched to different contexts and languages.

All the traversers stopped talking.

"Guardian from Xingyuan 1456, congratulations on completing the multiplayer mission with the travellers from other time and space. You have completed multiple Rubik's Cubes and stood out. You are the winner of this mission."

At this moment, everyone felt a lasting emotion.

It turns out that the team that has completed the most stitching wins, and only they can get the settlement.

Those strange traversers disappeared around them one by one. As escorts, they were sent back to their original time and space by the sky.

As everyone knows, this makes the seventh team envious.

They want victory not to be rewarded, but to return to their own time and space, just like those innocently implicated traversers.

But then, the words of the Sky Vault system caused everyone to be in an unbelievable situation.

"You have completed all the tasks I planned for you."

"You have the right to keep the reward, continue to the next mission, or return to your time and space, and use the reward immediately."

Everyone on the seventh team was stunned.

Okay... are you home?

Quiet for a few minutes.

Fantasy, deceit, reality, no one can really believe that this time will be a real return.

However, going home, the two men are like a piece of plump cake hanging in front of the hungry, still giving them an uncontrollable desire.

Will it be true this time?

Will it really be free from this hijacking?

As if knowing the thoughts in their minds, the sky system said: "This time you will truly return."

After stressing the statement, everyone couldn't help but begin to believe.

Can they finally return to the third second when they were hijacked, back to their original era?

The sky system continues to confuse: "It is a pity that the time anchor cannot be set for the [Cube] mission. In order to ensure the integrity of time and space, the return time will be adjusted to 1456 for you according to the calculation of the time in the [Cube] mission. On the 17th. Also, someone in the [Cube] task failed to complete the settlement, and you cannot return to the original jump with your teammates. Therefore, you and your teammates will return in batches."

Someone failed to complete the checkout?

Duan Wen's expression changed: "Li Chun?!"

Skydome System: "Yes. Don't worry, he only needs to complete a simple B-level task to fill up the points and return later."

"Fuck! What is the rule?"

"Do you think you are a teacher taking the test in class, and then you can change it?! You are just a broken system!"

"Lao Tzu's reward is exchanged for Chun'er back, okay?"

Skydome System: "Sorry. The reward cannot be redeemed for you. This task is not dangerous, please rest assured."

The crowd screamed.

What tasks can Li Chun accomplish alone?

Sure enough, the Sky Vault system continued: "In order to ensure that the new task is completed as quickly as possible, you can choose to leave a team member to assist in completing the task."

Everyone: "..."

This is so **** thief!

What kind of shameless broken system is this? !

"That's a big deal, we will all stay." Tang Qi said, "There is no more task than this one, and a lot less one."

"Stay and stay."

"I must beat him to death this time."

Talking about it, he didn't speak during the rainy season.

"Okay." Song Qinglan interrupted them aloud, scanning them one by one with her eyes, "Give me all of them back, and I just need to stay."

"Stay together."

"Finish early and go home early!"

"No, we have to go together, stay together and stay together!"

Song Qinglan raised her eyes and looked at Monsoon again: "It's only a B-level mission, I will stay enough. You all have things you want to do. Go back early, finish writing the report and do the psychological evaluation earlier, then you can go early. Finish."

Song Qinglan said: "Or, do you think I can't even complete an ordinary task? I can't arrange you anymore?"

Everyone was silent.

Zhou Mingxuan immediately said: "Then, there is nothing to worry about when I go back anyway, I will be with you."

Song Qinglan hooked her lips: "Okay, Lao Zhou stays, no one else is necessary."

The Sky Vault system promptly uttered: "Song Qinglan, Zhou Mingxuan, you are welcome to stay and complete the B-level mission, and your rewards will be retained."

The matter was a foregone conclusion, and the sky's goal was achieved, and everyone scolded one after another.

The crowd surrounded Song Qinglan and Zhou Mingxuan.

With the two of them together, how could they complete the B-level mission with Li Chun.

From the start to the present, [Ouroboros], [Kaos], [Who am I], [Cube], all the way down, everyone is united and has gone through hardships.

Everyone's desire to go home was very urgent. Tang Le wanted to cry a little, and was hugged by Tang Qi.

Even Duan Wen has red eyes.

"Control your tears, maybe we will be back a few seconds after you go back."

Song Qinglan said this casually, ruthlessly and relentlessly, and successfully contained the scene of mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

Then in front of everyone, Song Qinglan turned to Ji Yushi and said: "Ji consultant."

For the monsoon season, more than ten hours have passed since he and Song Qinglan were separated.

Song Qinglan's tone made his heart beat, and when he looked up, he saw the indescribable emotion in the other's eyes. It seems to be angry or angry. In short, when the monsoon with such eyes feels, it seems that Song Qinglan is different in just a dozen hours.

"After I go back, I have something to tell you." Song Qinglan was a little harsh, but lacked the commanding tone unique to the captain. "There is one thing I hope you can consider very seriously."

Everyone doesn't know why.

Team Song didn't sound like it wanted to ask the season consultant to stay again.

On the contrary, there is a sense of breaking the boat and making up your mind, and they can't help but look at each other.

During the rainy season: "...I don't know where I will be then."

Song Qinglan understood what he meant almost immediately.

Ten years ago... the accident.

Song Qinglan said bluntly: "Don't go back yet."

The bright spots of light formed the light of time, making the white face in the monsoon rainy season look very cold, as I saw at first.

He did not answer the question head-on, but easily misinterpreted it as another meaning: "I miss my cat."

Four capsule compartments appeared not far away, glowing with fluorescence.

Song Qinglan grabbed her shoulders before taking a few steps during the rainy season.

Hu Shiqingqing, a handsome young man, was full of banditry, and no one would dare to look at him for a few seconds like this.

During the rainy season, I wanted to keep my face away, but I heard him say: "Wait for me, I will go with you."

The heart beats very fast during the rainy season.

He knew that his teammates were watching them, but Song Qinglan didn't seem to care at all.

He didn't know what they wanted to look like. Before he could speak, Song Qinglan almost gritted her teeth and asked: "Did you hear during the rainy season? That year, I went with you."

There was no answer during the rainy season.

A few seconds of silence seemed to last as long as several years. When Song Qinglan thought that she would refuse during the rainy season, Song Qinglan almost wanted to harden her heart and let Zhou Mingxuan replace Zhou Mingxuan during the rainy season and accompany him on the next unknown mission. torment.

But Song Qinglan couldn't do it.

It's too cruel for the monsoon.

At this time, during the monsoon rains, he raised his beautiful eyes and said softly: "Hasolamu."

The strange pronunciation made Song Qinglan stunned: "What do you mean?"

He quickly realized that this was the language of the bearded man.

During the rainy season, he blinked his eyes and said, "I hope everything goes well for you in the B-level mission."
