Blade and Swift

It was midnight when Yan Xichen opened his eyes.He didn't remember how he fell asleep either, it seemed that he had been working all day until he was exhausted, and he fell asleep wrapped in a quilt without even washing in the morning. The ** is dry and not sticky on the neck, it should be Du Yachen helped him clean it up.

There was no one in the room, and the clothes went to nowhere, Yan Xichen simply pulled the sheet to wrap himself, and tentatively got off the ground.My waist and abdomen were so sore from exertion, and my legs were completely sore and weak, and I couldn't even stand up.He scolded his mother in his heart, and murmured several words to Du Yachen, and then slowly opened the door with steps.

In the living room, Du Yachen was sitting on the sofa with his head propped sideways, and he was only wrapped in a bathrobe, looking lazy and sleepy.There is a notebook spread out on his lap, and a pen is pinched between his fingertips, tapping the paper from time to time, looking like he is thinking.Yan Xichen recognized the notebook, which was used by Du Yachen to organize and record things with him. Last time he saw the words 'Basilica Grand Theater' in this notebook.If anyone gets this notebook, they will probably click their tongues at the secrets in the other world.

At this moment, Yan Xichen had no doubt that most of the things inside were related to Cain.Thinking of Fang Shuo, I felt a dull pain in my chest.Guilt is a perennial cold fang, it is not sharp, but it can torture people to death.

Yan Xichen sighed, walked up to Du Yachen barefoot, and sat down beside him.Probably because he was more focused just now, Yan Xichen came up to Du Yachen and realized that he wrapped his arms around the man's waist tightly in the bed sheet: "Are you awake? What's wrong?"

"Tell me." Yan Xichen looked down at him.

Du Yachen smiled shamelessly: "Who is to blame? You are more enthusiastic than me."

He teased Yan Xichen with a few words, and it was just after the event. Du Yachen's voice still had an aftertaste. Yan Xichen sat on his lap with his legs spread apart, took out his notebook and put it on his chest, and quickly scanned glance.It was some scattered missions of Hawkeye before the Kiev incident, and most of them were carried out by him and Cain, which surprised him.

"You are the master now. Although I don't know if you are the master of everything in the other world, obviously I can slow down the pace." Du Yachen explained.

"I don't see where you have slowed down." Yan Xichen glanced at ten lines, and turned the notebook forward several pages, all of which were similar, "To be honest, I have always found it strange that in the other world, I can't Feeling the control of space will, most of them are narrow escapes, and I have nothing to do when facing Cain. It’s not like you haven’t seen the scene of material chaos. I calm down and think about it. It wasn't me who caused it."

Du Yachen sighed: "Think about it, you haven't realized yourself as the will of space. There is a saying that when you don't know that you have power, you don't have power. The elephant tied to a wooden branch is lost because of inertia. Shackled thinking does not mean that it does not have power, and you are the same. As long as you do not realize that you are the master of the space, the power of will will not return to you. Reality now, you know, this is very dangerous You may not be able to control your strength."

"Then how do you explain that Fang Shuo does have the power to control space?"

"Do you still remember what Duan Mingyi and Luo Sen said? Everything in the inner and outer worlds is unbelievable. The people in the outer world are indeed real, but Cain is not a human being. They say that the real Cain may be in the outer world, and I agree. Cain is no longer a person, he is dead, dead for a long time. What he left in the other world may be his will, maybe his spirit, maybe just a memory. You are the one who controls the world, then Why does he have such power, isn't it obvious?"

Yan Xichen frowned and thought for a moment, remembering that Du Yachen also said at that time that after he made a choice in the Basilica Theater, everything was settled in the dark, because he is the ruler of this world, and his Many choices are related to the laws of this space, even if he doesn't know it when he makes the choice.

"You mean, I gave... Cain the right to use power?"

"Point!" Du Yachen patted his chest, stroking his body under the sheet, feeling the heat from under the thin sheet, "My guess is that your subconscious wants him to hate you."

Yan Xichen's eyes dimmed a little.

"What's the matter, baby?" Du Yachen rubbed his earlobe.

"When Cain was the will of space, everyone said that killing him would open the gap in space and return to the real world. Now it's like a farce, and I am the will of space..."

Du Yachen's eyes sank, and his thumb rubbed lightly on his waist: "I know what you're thinking. But Cain won't open the passage of space, because he can't do anything. Blowing up Cain's remains can open the passage, not because Because it hurt Cain hard, because it hurt you hard. And you, you will open the channel when the time is right."

"Many people have died here." Du Yachen's words did not comfort Yan Xichen. He lowered his eyes, and the moonlight dimmed on him, "I think there are too many people who would kill me even if they sacrificed their lives. You don't have to." Relieve me, I know that I am guilty. I did not create the space unknowingly, nor did I unknowingly let innocent people fall into this space. Although I don’t know how it happened in the first place, but at that time When I saw Fang Shuo's corpse, I was indeed crazy. My remorse, resentment, regret, unwillingness, and all kinds of almost desperate paranoia made me form this idea in my mind-if there is a pure world Alright. No suffering, no bad news, no regrets, no too late, no reconciliation, no desire, no so much filth and obscenity, no so much unwillingness and pain."

"I have failed your trust." Yan Xichen stroked Du Yachen's cheek and looked at him with sad eyes, "You think I am a person with a strong heart, but in fact I am not. The longer I persist, the final collapse The more I was destroyed, the more I was devastated. I actually wanted extreme purification...I actually wanted to..."

Du Yachen hugged him and laid him down on the sofa, kissing him: "Shh, baby, let's not talk about this. If you feel uncomfortable, we can do something more pleasant."

Yan Xichen showed a smile that was uglier than crying, but his excitement was suppressed by Du Yachen.He turned his face away: "You fucking..."

"Tomorrow we're leaving for Area S. The world is in chaos. It's time to calm down."

In the world, eight o'clock in the evening.

Rosen pushed the door open and entered. There were only two lamps on in the room, and there were a few dishes on the table.

For a long time after being cursed by Cain, Rose dared not touch an open flame.In fact, many things in daily life scare her, such as open flames and knives and forks.Adults are no longer afraid because they have control, and what Cain deprived of is the control in Rose's consciousness.Rosen remembers how hard it was for Rose to find this out, because she believed practice and overcoming her fears would help her regain control.At first, Rosen had to prepare cooked food for the house before going out. Later, Rosen could use a knife and fork, as well as an open fire.

But today, the room was filled with a dead gray, very different from usual.

Rosen cautiously approached the door, pushed open the half-hidden door, and found that the room was completely dark.Rose was afraid of the dark, he knew, but Rose tried to overcome it every now and then, like using an open flame.But today, Rosen's first instinct told him that the state of Rose must be wrong.

He quickly lifted the quilt on the bed, hugged his trembling body in the dark, and turned on the bedside lamp with one hand.

In the early morning, before Du Yachen had time to go out, Rosen came to visit him first.

Rosen's complexion really didn't look good: "Rose's situation is very bad."

When Yan Xichen got up, Du Yachen and Luo Sen had already gone to see Rose.It turned out that the plan drawn up by the two required to go to the chaotic area with Rosen to deal with things, and Rose would be handed over to Lao Jiang to take care of her as usual.When Yan Xichen found Du Yachen, Du Yachen's expression was not very good.

He was wearing a coat and carrying a gun, and he looked ready to go.Standing at the bottom of the steps, Yan Xichen saw Du Yachen coming towards him like a gust of wind: "Go to District K now, I have something to ask the crow."

"A crow?" Yan Xichen was surprised, he didn't bring anything, but he knew that Du Yachen could always find what he wanted in the trunk.

Without further ado, Yan Xichen followed Du Yachen and got into the car.

Du Yachen stepped on the accelerator, Yan Xichen swayed due to inertia, and Du Yachen freed up a hand to hold his.

"The day Rose was 'cursed', neither Rosen nor you were there. Except for Rose himself, only the crow was present, and only he could explain what was going on."

"Now there is a scuffle in Area K."

"The whole world is in chaos." Du Yachen stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, "The more chaotic the place, the more crows can be found, let's go meet him."

Du Yachen was right, Yan Xichen didn't even ask him how he knew that the crow must be in K area.He has his way.

Later, Du Yachen told him about Rose at that time, such a good girl, who had followed him for several years, and when she saw her, she almost used self-mutilation to control her emotions.When she saw Du Yachen, she lost control of her emotions even more. Not to mention her usual demeanor, her eyes, which were always flowing like water, were all dried up.

The apartment was arranged very safely by Rosen, at least it looked safe, all sharp objects were covered, and the living room and bedroom were bright and clean.Rose was sick, and her mind was haunted and tortured day and night by fear, and there was nothing they could do about it.The real sharp thorn is not around her, but in her heart.

In District K, a sky full of yellow sand hangs over the urban area, as if experiencing a sandstorm, everywhere is gray.There weren't many people on the block, and all the fighters were concentrated in the northern part of the city - I heard that there was a confrontation going on there, and everyone obeyed the crow's command.

Du Yachen drove straight in, and soon they shuttled through the bullets.Du Yachen stepped on the accelerator until they were blown out.Du Yachen and Yan Xichen got out of the car dealership, each holding their weapons.

Yan Xichen found the SVD in the trunk, took it out and held it in his arms.Du Yachen gave him a meaningful look and gestured to the east.

"I'll wait for you." With a gun in hand, Du Yachen jumped into the window of a building on the street.

Yan Xichen turned around and trotted, looking for the commanding heights immediately.

Holding a submachine gun in his hand, Du Yachen successfully killed five people representing world forces with the help of three shelters.After confirming that the surrounding area was clean for the time being, Du Yachen showed up and gestured to Xichen Yan, before disappearing at the end of the walk.

"It's fucking maverick as always." Yan Xichen held the sniper and remained calm, but the eyepiece briefly chased Du Yachen's figure for two seconds.

He raises the eyepiece, finds the target, condenses, and fires.

He cleared up the short snipers on the east road for Du Yachen, a total of two people.Putting away the gun, Yan Xichen went downstairs with the SVD in his arms, and began to run towards the next commanding height.

They gradually approached the gathering center of the war not far away, and their cooperation was as tacit and efficient as before.
