Chapter 1217: Lost contact

Lost contact

The body is like a mayfly, with nothing to rely on.

When Cheng Shi was in the real universe, this was the feeling.

He thought he had looked at the real universe from beneath the world, and what he saw was the truth, but he didn't expect that only by delving into it would he know the vastness of the real universe.

This starry sky is completely different from the void. The void is also empty and vast, but after all, darkness is the protective color of the void. Under the endless darkness, human vision does not involve infinite distances, but can only focus on the space in front of them.

But the real universe is not dark. Lonely distant stars light up the entire starry sky, making people feel that their vision is extending infinitely.

Those brilliant stars hang far in the sky, as if they were signposts, but if you really want to follow the starlight, you find that no matter how much effort you make, it is still so far away from you.

At this moment, "life is like the stars, looking but not reaching" was completely concretized.

Feeling the unprecedented loneliness, Cheng Shi had no emotion in his heart, only solemnity.

Big Jiang was gone.

Sure enough, the accident came to his side the first time he stepped out of the world.

What's more helpless is that it is difficult to find a reference point in this starry sky to locate yourself, because a person's moving distance compared to the distance from those distant stars is almost negligible. No matter which direction Cheng Shi chooses or how far he walks, the positions of those bright stars in his field of vision have never changed.

Stable as a 360° sticker.

Helpless, Cheng Shi could only take out the Thorn Weeping Gift and use spiritual power as the standard for measuring distance.

The talent is still usable, which means Cheng Shi can use the die to exchange back to the "starting point." In this way, he only needs to control time, jam the limit die exchange distance, and he can explore the surrounding area as much as possible.

He knew that restricting himself in this way would definitely not find the authority, but finding Big Jiang or Qin Xin before finding the authority was the most stable way.

However, this search took an unknown number of days.

Good news, in the real universe, he is no longer bound by the 【Faith Game】. Even if the time is up, Cheng Shi will no longer experience a special trial.

Bad news, people haven't been found yet, and Cheng Shi is about to go crazy.

That eternal loneliness is not just talk, coupled with the anxiety brought by the uncertainty of the real universe, the oppression brought by the Creator being high above, and the silence brought by Brother Eye and Brother Mouth not speaking, Cheng Shi has even prepared for the worst in his heart.

The only reason he didn't give up was his firm belief that the God of Fun would never let him and Big Jiang come to the real universe to die. As for whether this is a lie, whether it is a means He used to destroy the "established"...

Cheng Shi didn't dare to think, nor could he think.

Once new fear is born, that endless suspicion can become the last straw that breaks him.

So he discarded all distracting thoughts and searched blindly.

Another few days passed, until Cheng Shi confirmed that all areas within the radius of the "maximum exchange time" had been searched, and he finally decided to try another method:

Create some huge noises so that Big Jiang knows he is here.

He knew Big Jiang must be looking for him too, and given her fear of the real universe, she would never advance rashly, so it is highly likely that she was also confined to one place, cautiously exploring the surroundings.

If they are too far apart, two people walking in circles are destined not to meet. There is even a more absurd possibility, which is that the areas they explore actually overlap, but the time they explore the overlapping area is staggered, which leads to the two never being able to see each other.

So Cheng Shi decided to make some noise to break this deadlock.

But this matter is risky. The reason he didn't do it for the past few days was that he was afraid that the noise would not attract Xiang Honglin, but other things in the real universe.

No one knows what is hidden in here. Even based on the exploration of these few days, he is the only living thing in the real universe, but Cheng Shi still didn't dare to take the risk, until he used up all the stable plans and had no other way.

Cheng Shi took out a small magic bomb, detonated it immediately, and instantly exchanged back to the position of a few minutes ago.

In this way, he could observe the explosion point and leave enough buffer distance when danger approached. His stability was exerted to the extreme at this moment, but this extreme still didn't bring any answers.

The real universe was as quiet as ever.

Cheng Shi's expression was dark and inexplicable. Seemingly out of moves, he actually had new ideas.

Since the explosion sound wouldn't attract the covetousness of other lives, he could completely expand his exploration range through time bombs. Although there wasn't much stock, it was better than doing nothing.

He couldn't return to the original world after wasting a few days and bring back bad news to the destined person. How could he talk about being destined then?

Cheng Shi exhaled heavily. He found that he still thought too simply. Some things the God of Fun can do, but as a mortal, he might really not be able to.

The identity of Foolish Play can still deceive people in the original world, but when it really comes to needing divine power, fake is fake, just like that pale lie, which breaks at a poke and gives no confidence.

Just like this, he explored in the real universe for another three days. The depression that had accumulated to the point of exploding was really going to drive Cheng Shi crazy. He detonated the last bomb, observed from a distance for a while, and after receiving no feedback, closed his eyes and turned silently toward the "starting point."

It's time to go back, but this is not giving up, but going back to replenish supplies. He won't throw Big Jiang in the real universe, and he believes Big Jiang won't wait foolishly on the spot.

Perhaps, she is already waiting for him in the original world?

But how to go back is another problem. There is no "Peering Mirror"-like thing around the starting point where Cheng Shi arrived. There is nothing there, just a "starting point."

He anchored that position because he was afraid that it would be related to the way home, and now when he returned to the starting point again, he fell into a second problem.

Where is the road?

For a time, Cheng Shi, who kept deceiving himself, felt a trace of real fear in his heart.

He began to think about things he didn't dare to think about.

This undoubtedly made his state even worse, and his whole person slumped in the starry sky, like a walking corpse.

The adventure he boasted about at the beginning seemed to have reached its end, ending hastily and turning into a tragedy.

But would it really be like this?

Every period under this starry sky has a wonderful and unforgettable story, and this moment is no exception, so the turning point arrived as scheduled.

Right at that starting point, right before his eyes, a figure suddenly appeared, looking at Cheng Shi, whose expression was changing in front of him, extremely shocked:

"Cheng Shi!?"

"Why did you arrive before me?"

"!!!!!"

It's Big Jiang!

Cheng Shi, who heard the voice, raised his head suddenly. He didn't dare to believe that Big Jiang really appeared at the first moment, and was even doubting whether this scene was an illusion after he fell into speculation.

He slapped himself hard, and after feeling the personal pain, he suddenly laughed like crazy and hugged Big Jiang into his arms.

"Eh eh eh, you..."

Just when Big Jiang was shocked and helpless, the cold blade tip pressed against her neck.

Cheng Shi, who was still laughing crazily just now, turned cold in a second, his tone extremely cold:

"You are not Xiang Honglin, who are you?" ===== CHAPTER 1218 =====
