Chapter 1358: Breaking the Agreement
More than half a year ago, a [disaster] that could make human beings disappear without warning appeared. It took less than a month to turn many highly mobile places on the six continents into hardest-hit areas, and some Famous scenic spots have long been abandoned.
There are hard-hit areas, and naturally there are less-affected areas, as well as places that were lucky enough to escape the [disaster] attack, such as the snow-capped mountain area, such as the Kendia Desert, the hometown of Sa Ling, and the Whale Island, where the population mobility is almost zero. small island.
Whale Island, as a relatively independent small island, was not affected at the beginning of the [disaster], but after that, the [disaster] affected several continents, such as a disaster that caused the marine industry to stop directly, and it is only for the past The Whale Island, where fishing boats are used as a resting place, also avoided the result of being visited by [disaster].
At the very beginning, the residents of the island knew nothing about the upheavals outside, but the communication on the island was complete. Through radio and television, the residents soon learned of the [disaster] with various nicknames, and panicked. In addition, he also tried his best to make a countermeasure-directly close the island.
Since the resources on Whale Island are sufficient for the residents to be self-sufficient, as long as they do not accept outsiders, the possibility of being [spread] is reduced.
In this way, when the Six Continents suffered from [disasters], Whale Island was safe and sound, which is a blessing in misfortune.
However, another equally weird and inexplicable disaster visited Whale Island today, which was lucky enough to escape the [Aging Disaster].
There was no sign of that weird disaster, just like the previous reports on the [Aging Disaster] by the media of the six continents, it was like a sudden storm that ruthlessly involved human beings.
The first person who had problems on the island was an old alcoholic man. He was carrying a bottle of wine that was about to bottom out, and he was walking in the laneway leading to the house, but was swallowed by his own shadow in vain.
On the side of the alleyway, there is a back door of a house, and the owner of the house is sitting on the back steps, eating lunch, and then watching the old drunkard being swallowed by a cloud of fangs and claws.
"Kangdang."
The sudden scene scared the owner of the house into a dazed expression, and the porcelain bowl in his hand dropped to the ground with a loud noise.
The shadow that devoured the old drunkard didn't pay attention to the owner of the house, but just inflated like a balloon, turning into a big fat man with a beer belly.
The continuously expanding volume soon filled the entire alleyway, and the edges of the shadow swayed slightly like ripples. The sunlight fell from above the alleyway, and when passing by the shadow, it presented distorted light and shadow.
After a while, the shadow stopped expanding, and still ignored the stunned owner of the house, walking step by step towards the entrance of the lane.
The owner of the house just watched the shadow disappear at the corner of the alleyway. After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth, arousing his consciousness, wanting to scream out something like help.
But at this moment, the shadow behind him slanting on the steps trembled violently, turning into several arm-thick chains, winding around the body of the owner of the house like snakes, making the voice that just came out of the throat suddenly And stop.
"Pfft!"
The chains were closed abruptly, and the owner of the house was dismembered silently. The fragments of organs and blood shattered by the squeeze shot to the surroundings, but before they landed, they were swallowed by the scattered shadows.
call!
The shadow rolled up a whirlwind, without letting go of even a drop of blood, and swallowed it all into the darkness, and then slowly turned into dozens of coiled chains in a wave of tremors.
Every piece of lock that is entangled in it is as big as an adult's head, like a heart, beating rapidly.
The shadows that turned into a pile of chains were also slightly distorted in the sun to form pieces of light and shadow, facing the back door of the house without moving. There was an unknown commotion.
Half an hour after the first appearance of the chaos, Qi Ya took Alluka to Whale Island to find Xiaojie. He had to pass through the village and go straight inland along the river that runs through the village.
Walk until you reach the field where Jay's house is.
As soon as they stepped into the village, they realized that something was wrong, and Qiya only had time to see a shadow giant get up from behind a house, and Nanica, who had gained control of his body, used his ability to take him directly to the basement where Xiaojie was. .
When he came back to his senses, Qi Ya was surprised, not because of the shadow giant that suddenly appeared, but because Nanika would actively use his ability to take him away from that place, which was tantamount to destroying the previous situation. do the agreement.
Being able to make Nanika do this suddenly means that the shadow giant is very dangerous, which is why Qiya was so surprised.
After Nanika brought Chiya to the basement, he immediately handed over control of his body to Alluka, and they suddenly appeared in the basement, scaring the three of Xiaojie who hid in the basement.
Mitt was okay and could withstand the scare, but Grandma Xiaojie couldn't do it. Under the premise of tense nerves, she was directly frightened and passed out.
Thanks to Xiaojie's quick reaction, after seeing clearly that the figures that appeared suddenly were Qi Ya and Alluka, he quickly stopped the half-stretched fist.
"Kiya, Alluka, what are you...?"
Xiaojie looked at the two of them in astonishment, while Mitt stroked his chest with a beating heart, heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly checked the unconscious grandma.
Qi Ya thought about the shadow giant he saw just now, organized his thoughts, and then explained what he saw in the village and town.
Hearing this, Xiaojie's face changed slightly, and he walked quickly to the entrance of the basement.
His house is located in the field beside the river, and there are a few scattered houses not far away. Just ten minutes ago, the shadow that Qiya explained was in the shape of a mouth, entrenched on the house, and every time he breathed, he would open his mouth and open his mouth. The large mouth of the house volume.
The moment he saw the shadow's mouth, Xiaojie's body fell into an ice cellar. Realizing a strong sense of crisis, he immediately led Aunt Mitt and Grandma to hide in the basement.
He stood at the entrance of the basement, with a look of unshakable fear in his eyes.
"What are those... what are they?"
"Those things are objects of the manifestation of desire."
Nanika regained control of her body and answered Xiaojie's question.
Xiaojie turned his head and looked at Nanika with wide eyes, unable to understand what the so-called object of desire was.
On the side, Qi Ya asked in a deep voice, "Naniga, do you know what that is?"
Nanika was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.
The hollow and dark facial features made it impossible to see her expression at the moment.
"My abilities are derived from human desires, and those shadows are also derived from human desires."
