In the storm

The space-time storm is a unique spectacle of the real universe.

It is called a storm, but in fact, its movement is not as great as a gale in the real world. It is just because it involves the distortion of space-time, and in the dimension of space-time, it is more like a storm sweeping everything, hence the name.

Cheng Fraud and Cheng Fate were not its namers. They also learned everything from old Cheng Shi's mouth. As for who the original namer was, let alone old Cheng Shi, probably old-old-old-old-old Cheng Shi wouldn't know.

Perhaps before the first "prison breaker" stepped onto the real universe, the space-time storm had already existed alone in this starry sky for countless years, only when it first bloomed in the vision of the "prison breaker" did it get a name belonging to it.

Every fixed period of time, at certain singularities of space-time fluctuation, space-time storms will form in an orderly manner.

The storm is clearly synonymous with disorder and destruction, but in the real universe, it is inexplicably "well-behaved." The time interval of their appearance is stable, the position of the fluctuation singularity is relatively stable, and even from the rise of the storm to the end of the storm, the length of time experienced is stable. The only unstable thing is the people trapped in the storm, who don't know which space-time they will be taken to by the storm.

But no matter which space-time they are taken to, the storm is not fatal. It is just that the space-time distortion contained in it is enough to make everyone who experiences the storm deeply recognize their own insignificance and so-called fate.

Cheng Fraud and Cheng Fate were lucky enough to experience it once, and since then, they have never wanted to experience it a second time.

According to their words:

The lucky are always lucky, the unlucky are still unlucky. The ones who should "suffer" are not us, but those flower buds raised in greenhouses.

So they calculated carefully, laid out carefully, and personally sent Cheng Shi and the three into it.

After being swept away by the space-time storm, Cheng Shi's consciousness experienced four stages from disintegration to reorganization, from blur to clarity. When he realized that the terrifying accident in the real universe had not completely swallowed him, the joy of surviving a disaster and the lingering fear of the aftermath came at the same time, making his brain experience a long period of blankness.

He was not sure whether the eruption of this disordered and chaotic black sphere was the culprit that made the way home disappear, and even less sure whether their encounter with this disaster was a pure accident or someone's calculation.

Still the same sentence, the real universe is too complex, complex to the point that it cannot be defined by the experience of the original world whether this is a conspiracy or a sudden terror.

But no matter what, Cheng Shi knew he had to get out of this storm. At this time, his vision was still completely black, and the boundless darkness was more frightening than the void.

The pitch-black of the void is at least stable and will not expand, but the pitch-black in front of him is like a virus, constantly eroding Cheng Shi's vision. They steam, change, distort, and spread at a speed as if they want to completely pollute him.

Hong Lin and Qin Xin were missing again. Cheng Shi searched for a long time and didn't find any life other than himself in this dark space.

He tried to use elusive chips to return to the past and future, but failed. The space-time here seemed to form a barrier of its own, and he could exchange positions at will in the darkness, but he could not break the darkness and go outside the darkness.

As a last resort, Cheng Shi had to take out the 【Pollution】 container to suck away his fear, forcing himself to calm down, and began to look around, trying to find a way out in the endless darkness.

Perhaps it was 【Fate】's favor, perhaps this storm was not as dangerous as imagined. After observing for a while, he actually found a touch of white light in the endless disturbing darkness.

Ordinary people might approach the white light at the first time out of survival instinct, but Cheng Shi was not an ordinary person. His steadiness reached its peak under the blessing of the 【Pollution】 container. He pretended not to see the white light and continued to grope in the darkness until he had turned around the surroundings and found no second touch of white light, only then did he confirm that the white light was the only "guide" in this dangerous situation.

He had to make a choice.

Cheng Shi stood still and lowered his head to say to his shadow that he couldn't see:

"Who would have thought that when 'Fate also has detours' falls into cooldown, the detour of fate really comes..."

"This time 【Time】 may not be able to save us, and we can only believe in 【Fate】."

He held a die and set an anchor point for shadow Cheng Shi.

Shadow Cheng Shi instantly left the body, turned into a black shadow and swam toward the white light. A moment later, he fell into that touch of white without any obstruction, and then there was no sound!

Cheng Shi panicked. This was the first time he had lost contact with his shadow.

Even on the corpse of 【Silence】, he could feel shadow Cheng Shi's consciousness gradually stiffening, but now he had directly lost his perception of the shadow, which made his face become extremely solemn.

Intuition told him not to stay here for long, but the loss of the shadow made him fear jumping into the white light trap. For a time, Cheng Shi was hesitant, ushering in the biggest crisis since the arrival of the gods.

At this time, he had neither the protection of the Benefactor nor experience to refer to. Facing the unknown detour ahead, Cheng Shi gritted his teeth...

Gritted his teeth for a while.

In terms of the steady style of doing things, since it was safe here and it hadn't reached the limit of life and death, then don't easily try unknown risks. The only attempt method had been lost, and now what Cheng Shi could do was wait to die.

Wait for the storm to dissipate, wait for fate to change, wait for the crisis to come and go, wait for the vitality to bump into his eyes. Besides that, he had no other way.

Of course, it wasn't completely waiting.

In the agonizing wait, he tried to throw everything that could prove his identity into that touch of white light, but unfortunately, there was no reaction.

He even threw his mask and die in, hoping that the other side was a space that could be sensed by the two Benefactors, so that They would know he was in a dangerous situation.

However, these were useless.

At that moment, Cheng Shi suddenly understood Skart's despair. In the darkness where help was fruitless, the only thing left for him seemed to be his own... body.

Cheng Shi was silent. The Lips of Foolish Play hadn't answered for a long time, and Brother Tongue, Brother Eye, and Brother Ear had long since lost their sound. At this time, the only method seemed to be to throw an Brother Eye in to see if it could see what was on the other side of the white light through the connection between the two eyeballs.

He didn't hold hope for this. After all, even the shadow was folded there, but he couldn't sit and wait for death, so he gouged out an eye and threw the silent Eye of Mockery in.

In the next second... nothing happened.

The Eye of Mockery remained silent, and Cheng Shi accepted his fate.

He firmly believed that this storm would not have no end, but he was not sure whether he could measure the duration of an accident from the universe with his mortal life dimension.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder if it were the big cat and Qin Xin, would they have a way to find a way out? ===== CHAPTER 1234 =====
