She had only found the artist, but she was still far from escaping. When Lin Sanjiu realized this, her [Defense Forcefield] was extinguished. Her body collapsed to the ground like a building.
Ironically, before she thought of the painter as a way to escape, she had been using all kinds of excuses to keep Wei Xing in her mind, not daring to really let her go. In the end, when the door shook with a clatter, it finally separated from the wall and was sucked in by the canvas. Wei Xing's straight figure also appeared in the hole where she could escape, occupying her vision from above.
"I'm very frustrated now," Lin Sanjiu said in a low voice.
She said in a low voice. Since her back was facing the light, her appearance and expression were shrouded in darkness.
"I would rather walk away with guilt in my heart, knowing that I've done something wrong to others … What do you want me to do now that you've struggled to this point? If I let you out, you will definitely take revenge on me. If I don't let you out, it means that I have to trap you in there with my own hands and dirty my hands even more. "
The artist took down the canvas and spread it in front of Lin Sanjiu as if he was presenting a treasure. He didn't seem to realize that it was strange for Lin Sanjiu to lie on the ground with her face facing the sky. He even adjusted the angle of the canvas according to Lin Sanjiu's gaze so that she could see it clearly.
"Take it away quickly."
When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, Wei Xing seemed to have turned her head to glance at the artist because the latter suddenly jumped up and kept the canvas in his arms.
"Thank goodness you've collapsed. You've really lost your strength, haven't you? "Lin Sanjiu said softly," You're not lying to me, right? "
Lin Sanjiu lay motionless on the ground. Her mind was still clear for now. It wasn't a good sign that Mrs. Manas had disappeared. This meant that she had used up the last bit of Higher Consciousness that she needed to exist. However, Lin Sanjiu didn't give up. She continued to search for and squeeze out any remaining Higher Consciousness, like a person who was dying of thirst trying to squeeze water out of a sponge.
"I've already let others down, so I might as well be a complete villain."
After sighing softly, Wei Xing didn't say anything else. However, she didn't leave either. She seemed to want to stand there and watch Lin Sanjiu's face start to turn into a black hole. She wanted to make sure that there was no turning back before she left.
She couldn't squeeze out any more Higher Consciousness. But why was there no sound at all?
Lin Sanjiu had long known that her [Defense Forcefield] was on the verge of collapsing. She knew that she didn't have much time left, so she had to come up with a backup plan. However, she didn't have the time to consider what backup plan she should have in the short span of a few breaths. Therefore, before she collapsed, she grabbed a few cards in her hand.
After she fell, her vision was fixed in the direction of the door. She could not see what was happening to the item that had fallen from her hand and turned into a card. She could only be anxious. She could not see anything, but at least there should be some sound, right?
But some music is like that; it takes a long time to wait for the prelude.
"You have a lot of humanoid items," Wei Xing suddenly said softly, but he did not take her items to heart. "But even humanoid objects need your orders before they can move, right? You've struggled to this point, but it's still useless … But since you've helped me before, I won't take away your things after you become a guard. "
That's right. Other than the artist, she did have another humanoid item.
When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, she finally sensed that there was someone lying beside her. She had no idea how long he had been lying there. As he did not move or speak, she only realized it when she was reminded. No wonder Wei Xing did not seem to mind him. He probably looked like an inactive robot and did not pose any threat.
A voice whispered into her ear, "Sigh, I didn't expect you to encounter a new predicament in your life."
'Well, this guy has also come out with the other cards.'
"But just like what I promised you, I will accompany you through every obstacle. We will look at the rainbow behind the dark clouds. I believe in your potential, even in such a hopeless situation … "
Lin Sanjiu was on the verge of despair. Once her mentor was done with his encouraging words, she would become an outstanding guard.
"But … the fee …" Her mentor's second service was not free, but she did not expect him to raise the price at this moment, "How about five Special Items?"
Lin Sanjiu lay on the ground with her limbs spread out like a dead tree. She did not respond.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes." The tutor smiled sheepishly. She could almost imagine the row of shiny white teeth. "Look, your ticket is also in my hands. Do you authorize me to use it? If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. Don't worry, I already have a solution to your predicament. "
"No wonder I haven't heard anything for such a long time. The [Ultramusicfestival] is in his hands!"
Just as Lin Sanjiu was gritting her teeth, she finally heard a faint, hallucinatory sound of music. It was like rippling mist, coming from an unknown direction. This Special Item that appeared in the form of a ticket to a music festival could create background music that was beneficial to its owner. Thanks to it, she had survived that tough battle on the Seawall. However, in this situation, what kind of music could Lin Sanjiu use it to help a motionless person escape?
The answer was soon revealed.
Not only did Lin Sanjiu not try to help her stand up, he went to the other extreme. At this moment, Wei Xing also heard the melodious music. She mumbled, "What's that sound?"
She paused and listened for a few more seconds.
"A lullaby?"
Her mentor was playing a lullaby!
This was like adding salt to the wound. The [Ultramusicfestival] was indeed powerful. The moment Lin Sanjiu heard the melody, she realized that her efforts to stay awake were futile. Even though she couldn't close her eyelids, her vision was spinning. She heard a dull thud from the door, but the sound did not create any ripples in her mind.
"I am your master's mentor," Lin Sanjiu's voice seemed to come from a faraway place. It was as faint as a cloud, "I can mobilize your master's resources, and you are your master's resource. Therefore, I can mobilize you. Isn't this logic right?"
"Hurry up. Is it necessary to convince the artist?"
This was the last thought that Lin Sanjiu could vaguely remember. Then, she opened her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When she regained consciousness again, she heard the guard at the door also crawling to his feet. After a few seconds, her vision cleared a little. She saw the figure at the door leaning against the wall and slowly straightening up. The lullaby from the [Ultramusicfestival] had ended, which meant that a few minutes had passed.
When she woke up, Wei Xing also woke up. When Wei Xing fell asleep, she also fell asleep. [What's the point?]
"Fortunately," Wei Xing panted lightly and laughed, "Fortunately, you collapsed after you took out the item … I didn't expect you to have something that can hypnotize me. If you still have the ability to move, I would be in deep trouble today. "
She sighed, "This shows that I am not mature enough. In a place like the apocalypse, being a little soft-hearted means death … "
Lin Sanjiu listened to her quietly. For a moment, her heart didn't waver at all. After the hope that was ignited by her mentor faded, the despair in her heart was almost unbearable. However, perhaps because the gas had finally invaded her brain, the despair quickly turned into a deathly stillness.
"Goodbye."
Wei Xing looked at her face one last time before she turned around. Her footsteps gradually left the door.
A black hole had already appeared on her face.
She couldn't hear a single sound from her mentor or the artist. Perhaps the gas in this room could even corrode the Special Items and render them useless …
After Wei Xing disappeared, the silence lasted for another three to five minutes. Lin Sanjiu finally heard her mentor's voice again. Like a mouse that had finally stolen oil, it spoke softly, "Oh, she's finally gone."
Lin Sanjiu could only remain in her original state. She couldn't even express her surprise.
"Are you ready?" Her mentor got up, but it didn't seem like he was talking to her. "We need to get her out of here now. In order to get her out of here, we need you to paint. "
The broken pieces on the artist's body clanked against each other for a while. Lin Sanjiu didn't know what he was trying to convey. Her mentor said angrily, "If she doesn't say anything, it means she agrees! You just need to listen to me! "
This time, there were only two clanks. Lin Sanjiu had heard this before. It meant that the artist was nodding his head vigorously.
"Get out," her mentor ordered. "Stand behind the X-ray machine and paint her. Remember, when you are almost done, the canvas must be placed behind the X-ray machine. Do you understand?"
