Chapter 165: Heritage of Heroes(1/2)
In the streets and alleys of the food city more than 700 years ago, life and death escape initiated by monsters and humans began.
When I saw an idiot stop running away like a self-deprecating, and even actively attracting the attention of monsters, some of the students were ecstatic and some of the nose felt sore.
But no one stopped.
Whether it is to simply not want to die or not to let someone down, they have not stopped running away.
The lizard-like monster ran faster than them, and the only hope of the students was to run into a place with complex terrain to hide - and then hoped that the monster would look for new prey.
When he was running wildly, someone had a foreshadowing that he might soon hear Lin Rui's wailing, or maybe... he didn't even have time to wail?
Just as they were thinking this, a strong sense of vibration came.
Cheng Shishi, who was running in the front, suddenly fell down accidentally. She subconsciously turned around and saw an incredible scene.
The huge vibrations came continuously, making the entire street feel like it had been encountered a slight earthquake. Everyone thought it was a more powerful monster, and subconsciously looked back because of fear.
Then everyone's expression was astonished and frozen in shock.
The huge lizard was being grabbed by a weird man wearing a mask and wearing a black robe with brute force, and repeated the movements of beating!
They didn't know the pain this lizard suffered, but looking at the cracks that collapsed on the ground, they understood how terrible the power of this masked monster was-
The force that made the earth tremble was actually caused by a human!
The lizard is ready to make a sharp and harsh cry, a rare entry related to sound waves.
But before the sound could be heard, the masked monster predicted the movement. It was clearly a human hand, but it was like a sharp axe that broke the belly. It easily broke the defense and penetrated directly into the lizard's throat, like a armored helmet, and tore off its vocal cord.
This bloody scene made the students frightened, but it also brought about a strong joy of life!
They just felt that everything in front of them was too shocking.
"This is...Is this..." Fei Bo couldn't believe his eyes.
"How is it possible that the masked monster really exists? That stupid... what Lin Rui has always believed in is actually true?"
"It's too strong, is this a hero? It's too strong, wow!" Brother Shui raised his bat and expressed his excitement. He seemed to have forgotten that he was the one who mocked the most on weekdays.
Seeing the lizard being crushed and the mask that everyone is familiar with, they finally believe that the miracle has come!
Lin Rui burst into tears. At this moment, he was excited to hold Bai Wu's thighs and see if he saw hallucinations because he was about to die.
Until the lizard's body emitted a bloody stench, until Bai Wu turned around, stretched out another clean hand, and pulled Lin Rui up.
He was finally convinced that the masked monster really appeared!
"Are you... really... really a masked monster?"
Lin Rui was trembling and seemed even more afraid than seeing evil deeds, but he was not afraid, but was excited to be unable to suppress his body.
"If you want to change the bag, let's go and talk to your friends about the situation. The city is very dangerous now. If you want to live, you have to learn to save yourself."
Lin Rui only felt that everything was so unreal.
This kind of luck is not something that everyone has.
The feeling of being saved by the things you believe in is probably like all the bitter memories like frost and snow, suddenly turning into golden sunshine.
Bai Wu can understand the overflowing happiness in this child's heart.
In his previous life, he also liked to watch Ultraman, although every time he was abused by his father, he kept saying the names of monsters.
At that time, he also hoped that he could be saved.
He still remembers that he made a call because he couldn't stand the sadness of not being recognized by his father.
That was the phone number of the Universe Guard in the special drama - an empty number that cannot be reached at all.
It's really strange to say that this is really a strange thing. At that time, under the perverted teaching of his father, he was already better than many of his peers.
He knew in his heart that some things did not exist, but he still called by a stranger. He couldn't tell the reason, and he didn't know what he was looking forward to.
This is one of the few more childish actions he had when he was young.
Many things later also showed that no one would come to save themselves. They could only continue to fulfill their father's requests, endure and even get used to all kinds of pain and torture.
Then look for an opportunity to stay away from that man.
No one saved him in childhood. No one saved him in his youth.
But he just can understand this feeling of being redeemed.
...
...
What happened next was that a group of people rushed over excitedly. Everyone was saved and saw an incredible existence, and had a lot of questions to ask.
For example, why did the masked monster disappear in the previous few years?
Bai Wu didn't know the reason, but he didn't know why a weirdo who liked to wear a smiling mask appeared and disappeared.
Deep down, he tends to be the masked weirdo who died.
But to this group of students who are not much younger than him, Bai Wu still told a kind lie:
"In the distance you don't know, there are people who need me to protect more. I just went to a very far place."
This lie easily deceived everyone, and Lin Rui was moved because the hero never slacked off and was just doing similar things elsewhere.
He was glad that he had not let go of his childishness.
The truth is actually very cruel, but there is no need for the truth here... What builds this world is just an obsession.
After answering many questions, Bai Wu knew that the world would soon disappear.
History has not been rewritten, but at least in this phone booth world, he hopes that this ordinary teenager can survive as much as possible.
They asked so many questions, but no one said thank you to Lin Rui. It seemed that Lin Rui rushed forward to block the monster and was not worthy of respect.
Because the real masked monster appeared, the crisis was easily disintegrated. So, with the efforts of that fool, it became cheap.
Thinking of this, Bai Wu patted Lin Rui on the shoulder:
"Today's hero is not me. If you weren't you standing in front of everyone and shouting loudly, maybe I wouldn't have arrived here. You are very brave and remember your determination to die for your friends today."
"I am just a symbol. When I appear in this city, maybe people will ignite hope again, but what after I leave? Maybe soon, they will mock others' inner beliefs. After all, not every time, we can be saved by others."
Bai Wu took off his mask:
"This world is dying little by little, and there are many places where more distorted and evil monsters are raging the city, and there are many weak humans waiting for redemption. Unfortunately, I cannot follow you all the time, so you have to become stronger. Be more calm and calm in the face of danger."
"Don't be afraid of evil deeds and desperate situations, face them with courage and wisdom. This process may be long, but when you can adapt, you are already a hero."
The face behind the mask perfectly fits people's fantasy of heroes.
At this moment, Bai Wu smiled gently as the spring breeze. He gently pressed the mask on the boy's forehead:
"I will give you this mask. From today on, you will take on the responsibility of protecting them. Can you do it?"
The humble boy grew up at this moment, as if he had used up all his luck in his whole life. He should have taken the mask handsomely, but he still couldn't help but nod and cry.
At the same time, Bai Wu discovered that the people around him had also changed their gaze at Lin Rui.
At this time, they realized that everyone was thinking about their lives, and Lin Rui was standing in front of them.
Things in the scene dissipated like puzzles again. This means that Lin Rui's obsession has been eliminated.
Bai Wu didn't know if this young man could lead this group of people to survive, after all, they were not qualified to go to the tower.
According to the objective laws of history, they will eventually die.
But at least from now on, in the parallel world of the telephone booth, he became the heir of the masked monster, no matter how strong or weak he was, only determination.
As consciousness is about to leave this world and return to the phone booth, the eyes are starting to add drama again:
[Does there be an inevitable connection between me and the universe? Is there an end to the universe? Is there a length of time? Where does the past disappear? Where does the future time stop? The question I asked at this moment is still the question you just heard? Cause and effect are very interesting things, because we don’t know whether we have changed the cause or the result inadvertently~ But what is certain is that if the cause is changed, the result will definitely change accordingly.]
It was another strange conclusion, but it didn't matter. He had long been used to the style of this eye.
Bai Wu's consciousness quickly returned to reality.
In reality, the phone booth became transparent little by little and gradually disappeared. He once again perfectly solved the call, but what lingered in his ears was not the sound of phone calls coming and going around him.
It's Yin Shuang's whisper:
"White Mist... Why did the phone booth disappear?"
"Awaken? The game we are playing now is called Gold Medal Customer Service. People on the other end of the phone will ask us for help or have some problems. As long as they can solve their needs, the phone booth will disappear."
Bai Wu was still carrying Yin Shuang on her back. Yin Shuang's fair and slender arms were tied around Bai Wu's neck. Her consciousness had not yet awakened completely. It was like the pain in her memory, and there were still some remnants.
Bai Wu didn't care and was preparing to go to the next phone booth.
"Tell me what you encountered on the phone."
It was not Bai Wu who made this request, but Yin Shuang. Bai Wu originally wanted to ask what exactly Yin Shuang had answered the phone call.
But the lady was given priority. While carrying Yin Shuang on his back, he talked about what he encountered in the two phone booths in extremely concise language.
Yin Shuang listened to the story Bai Wu had just experienced, with complicated eyes.
"So that's the case... I hope they can have a good end in the world of telephone booths."
To be continued...
