To Lin Sanjiu, the Lin Sanjiu who had agreed to use the "human bomb" a few minutes ago was like a completely different person.
While she was still in a daze, Yu Yuan struggled and flung Silvan off his body. Even in the darkness, Lin Sanjiu could see his bloodshot eyes.
"Stop him!" Silvan roared. Before his body touched the ground, he bounced back up. Both he and Lin Sanjiu pounced on Yu Yuan at the same time. They knocked him to the ground from behind and pinned him to the ground with one arm each.
Yu Yuan was not the only one who rushed out from behind the container. The moment they realized that something was wrong with the queen, the remaining members of the Munitions Factory also ran toward the center of the explosion and tremors. Before Silvan could say anything, Lin Sanjiu quickly pinned Yu Yuan down and turned to the blonde man. "Go stop them!"
Before he could reply, he kicked the ground and shot into the distance like a bullet.
"Let me go!" Yu Yuan roared. He swung his elbow backward and hit Lin Sanjiu in the ribs. Lin Sanjiu was in so much pain that she had to hold her breath. She could only bear the pain and put all her weight on his back. "Mister, believe me, I'm trying to save you!"
Just as she finished her sentence, she saw a black shadow flying toward her amid the rain of gravel and sand. Lin Sanjiu ducked quickly, and the thing brushed past her head and landed on the ground behind her with a thud. She turned her head and saw that it was a severed arm.
The palm of the man opened up, and the fingers wobbled. The silver ring flickered as if it was trying to grab hold of something.
The dozen people who had been used as bombs were detonated at the same time, but the continuous explosions and aftershocks seemed like they would never end. They shook the entire cavern violently, and for a moment, everything in front of Lin Sanjiu turned into a blurry, flickering shadow. Their ears buzzed with pain.
The sound of explosions had stopped, but the shaking was still going on. The chunks of earth were getting bigger and bigger, and the cracks on the ground were getting wider and wider. The dome above them was on the verge of collapsing. Piece by piece, it cracked and fell, crashing down continuously. Gradually, the shape of the dome crumbled.
From time to time, a silhouette wearing the uniform of the Munitions Factory would be flung out from the thick cloud of dust, landing far away on the ground. Some of the silhouettes did not move at all, but some were able to push themselves up from the ground. However, none of them turned back to attack the queen.
"Silvan!" Lin Sanjiu raised her head and shouted at the top of her lungs. Or rather, she felt like she was shouting at the top of her lungs because her ears could not hear anything. She plucked up her courage and poked her head out. Her gaze fell into the dusty darkness behind the container, but she could not see anything clearly. She could not tell if there was anyone there, nor could she tell where the queen was.
'If Silvan accidentally sees the queen, will he fall into that state again? ' She had to bring him back, but she couldn't leave Yu Yuan alone.
She had to get him back, but she could not leave Yu Yuan alone.
Once she had the thought of killing the queen with a human bomb, she would not be able to carry out her plan. Lin Sanjiu was not aware of the nature of her actions, so naturally, the control system in her brain would not be triggered. The queen probably did not expect that the memory loss caused by the parasites would become an advantage for both of them to attack it.
Because of this, Silvan did not help her remember what happened the last time she lost her memory. After the bomb was detonated, she only had time to hear herself agreeing to the "human bomb" plan from the voice recorder. However, at this moment, without any external help, she remembered that the queen could cause a person to fall into a state of absent-mindedness.
'Does this mean — '
"Can you hear my voice?"
Lin Sanjiu's ears were still ringing, but she could hear Mrs. Manas' voice clearly in her head. It had only been a day or two, but her voice sounded as if it had been a lifetime ago. It was both strange and familiar at the same time. "The parasites in your brain have lost their vitality. Do you feel that your memory has returned? I think after the queen was killed, the parasites lost their source of command, so they are all motionless! "
Lin Sanjiu lowered her head and looked at Yu Yuan. She did not know when he had stopped struggling, but he had a dazed expression on his face as if he had just woken up from a dream. He stared blankly into the distance amidst the flying dust.
"Aren't you going to save the queen?" Lin Sanjiu had to raise her voice to hear her muffled voice.
Yu Yuan turned his head abruptly. Apparently, he heard what she said clearly. It seemed like he was in a better condition than she was.
"Save my ass! What's going on? What happened?"
Lin Sanjiu heaved a sigh of relief.
"I don't have time to explain," she said as she climbed down from his back. "We are going to be buried soon! Are you hurt? "
Yu Yuan jumped up and stretched his limbs, "I'm fine!"
"That's good. Bring the survivors out and climb up in that direction. You should remember the path you took when you came here, right?"
"Okay, what about you?"
Lin Sanjiu turned around and patted the container. When she retracted her hand, the ground was suddenly empty, and the view behind her suddenly opened up.
"I'm going to look for Silvan!"
With that, she turned and dashed towards the epicenter of the aftershock. The painter quickly followed her with the bucket in his arms. There, everything was obscured by a thick cloud of dust. It was so thick that it seemed to have turned into some sort of viscous liquid. Only when rocks taller than an adult man came crashing down could the dust be stirred up.
She took out her [Ability Polishing Agent]. Under the silver light, the thick layer of dust billowed and assaulted her nostrils. Lin Sanjiu covered her mouth and nose and squinted her eyes. For a moment, she did not know which direction to go. She turned around and looked at the artist, who nodded quickly.
"What do you mean?" The moment she turned around, she was almost hit by a piece of broken soil. "Where is the queen?"
The artist thought for a moment and sat down on the ground. He took out a piece of canvas. He was very fast. Before Lin Sanjiu could stop him, he had already finished drawing a few strokes and handed the canvas to her. There was a big arrow between the artist's hands, pointing to her right.
The path to her right was blocked by the collapsed rocks, but Lin Sanjiu had her own way. Wherever the [Mosaic Censorship] touched, the rocks and soil would explode into dust. Lin Sanjiu had opened up a passage that was only about the width of a person. When she and the artist squeezed through the passage and into an empty space, they looked like two human figures made from a thick layer of dust.
"Silvan!" Lin Sanjiu yelled again. Her tongue and nostrils were filled with a layer of dust and debris. "If you don't leave now, we will be buried alive!"
Coincidentally, the tremors in the cavity stopped for a moment, and the words "buried alive" echoed clearly. In the darkness ahead, a familiar voice rang out, "I'm here."
Lin Sanjiu let out a long sigh. She waved at the artist, signaling him to follow her. Then, she trudged forward with difficulty. "Come out, quick! The cavity is collapsing!"
Silvan seemed to have said something, but it was drowned out by another series of collapsing sounds.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt? "
She asked as she followed the direction of his voice. She pushed away a pile of rocks that were as tall as her calves and crawled through the hill-like mound of soil. When she looked up, the second half of her sentence was stuck in her throat.
A dark red brain full of grooves was right in front of her. It was squeezed in the center by the collapsed rocks, and there was a layer of sand on its thin shell. She did not see the queen because it was not as big as it was before. Half of its brain had been blown to smithereens by the explosion. It was a bloody mess on the ground.
Silvan was standing in front of the queen. He turned his head when he heard her footsteps.
His entire body was covered in dirt and dirt. His golden hair was pulled up and simply tied up at the back of his head. "Look." That pair of jade-like green eyes flashed with a fiery light. "… This guy is still alive."
Lin Sanjiu stopped in her tracks.
"It is too badly injured. It can't do anything now," Silvan said as he reached out his hand to touch the queen's shell. The protrusion was wider than his body. "A thing that can grow into a planet's brain … Interesting, right?"
Lin Sanjiu looked at him and couldn't help recalling the first time they met.
"What … What are you planning to do?"
The sound of rocks falling and crumbling came from the cavity in the distance. The ground shook, and it made Lin Sanjiu's feet tremble.
Silvan acted as if he did not hear her. Just when Lin Sanjiu wanted to raise her voice and ask again, he suddenly turned his head.
"Do you want it?"
"What?" She was stunned.
"Queen, do you want it?" In the shadow, the man smiled faintly, revealing his white teeth. "If you don't want it, I will."
Lin Sanjiu stood rooted to the ground. For a moment, she was speechless. After a few seconds, she murmured, still a little doubtful that she had heard wrongly, "What … What do you want it for? It needs a human brain in order to grow. "
"There are countless people dying in the apocalyptic world every day. It is easy to find a human brain." Silvan smiled. "As for its use, we have to find it slowly."
"How can you carry such a big thing? We are almost buried alive. "
