Chapter 186: The One Who Fears is Himself(1/2)
The roaring wind blew away the turf, and accompanied by the continuous and rapid ringing of the bells, the chaotic and violent blades composed of threads of time were rolling towards the carriage of Merlin and others! At that moment, Merlin saw through the magic eyes he opened
They saw another blazing red mark on the far horizon, and a pointer as sharp as a spear was thrown in their direction!
The carriage jolted violently under the sudden strong wind, and a large amount of flying sand hit the surface of the carriage, making the sound of caracara. Almost all the children present screamed in fear. Prileus also panicked for a moment.
He was stunned, feeling like there was a fire burning in his heart; Sheldon frowned and wanted to instruct the children to keep quiet, but found that Merlin suddenly changed into the same state as when he just came out of the infusion chamber.
"No... don't!" Merlin blinked his eyes and quickly tried to cover up his abnormality, but the current situation was too strange, "No..."
"What...what's going on?" Sheldon has never been to the [Twilight Land], and he has never encountered this kind of situation. "Did you see anything?"
Allen grabbed Noelle's hand and looked at the scenery outside the window quietly. His expression was not good: "There should be something coming...Noelle, don't panic, you are my girl."
Waiter, nothing will hurt you."
The Link trio, like the other children, squeezed each other's bodies and screamed, except Bruce who was still wrapping the little book in his hand tightly in the chaos to prevent it from being broken.
The closer and closer explosions in the sky already indicated that the pointer was being thrown towards them!
"Dad...look!" Merlin swallowed, stretched out his right hand, and pointed at the thick and long stick-like object flying from the sky, but with brilliant magical light. His fingertips
Countless secret and noble threads flew out and wrapped around it!
"This...this is..." Sheldon swallowed and quickly took out the wand in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, the three stalagmites immediately came out of his hand, trying to deflect the trajectory of the pointer in front of him.
Drive away, "Stop!"
"No, no...it hurts!" Merlin pulled his hand with difficulty, and small drops of blood were dripping from his fingertips!
Within his sight, countless threads of time dragged the fiery red pointer, trying to slow down time, but it broke through the shackles of countless threads of time and flew straight in his direction! What followed one after another
The torrent of time even rolled up the thread of time controlled by Merlin and pulled it back! Merlin simply cannot compete with this power!
This pointer actually broke through the shackles of time. It just paused in mid-air, then suddenly accelerated and rushed towards them!
"Peleleus, help me quickly!" Sheldon saw the pointer's flight path being fast and slow. Naturally, he knew that Merlin had also done something about it. Relatively speaking, what he could do was very little.
.
The few stalagmites he released didn't even touch the surface of the pointer, but were shattered by the surrounding sparks! And its flight path was still heading straight in their direction! Peleleus chanted the demon loudly
Damn, I summoned several fireballs outside the carriage and threw them at the pointer in the air, but they were gone in an instant like moths to a flame!
"Noelle, remember what I said before, you must insist that you are the one at this moment..." Allen didn't have anything to protect himself at the moment.
I was reviewing what Sheldon had said before, and suddenly I found a coincidence, "Mr. Sheldon, that thing in the sky should be a pointer! We shouldn't worry about this, but the upcoming [Never-ending
Dusk]! In the sky are the hands of the bell tower!"
Sheldon finally understood why Merlin's current state became so strange. He asked Merlin in a low voice if he had any solution, but the little boy just bit his lips, looked pale, and kept shaking his head!
You know, the power in the torrent of time is several times more powerful than the pointer! This means that they must withstand the erosion of the torrent of time!
"It's coming..." Merlin hugged Sheldon's body tightly, simply closed his eyes and shouted loudly, "It's coming!"
Just as he was hugging Sheldon, a small figure suddenly appeared on his finger. Nightmare Maul came with the instructions of Nightmare Merlin to help them overcome the difficulties together!
Maul waved his fist and said to Merlin in a unique voice that no one else could hear: "Supreme—Master! I can't survive half a second in the torrent of time. I can calm everyone down.
Come down, let the owner handle the next thing! I also marked everyone in this carriage with flowers, I hope it will work!"
Merlin opened his eyes again, and he saw a faint light blue mark floating on the heads of everyone in the carriage, and the torrent of time had already rushed to their heads!
Boom! The first call was the pointer falling from the sky. It did not hit the convoy directly, but blocked the dust in the sky. The layer of blazing fire floating on the surface of the pointer suddenly broke away and headed towards the torrent of time.
Hit it, it's trying to protect everyone here!
The huge shock wave blew up the entire carriage. Sheldon had no choice but to endure the physical discomfort, squeezed Peleleus's body apologetically, waved the wand forcefully, and concentrated on casting the spell again. The three in his hand
The brown magic pattern quickly faded, and the green magic pattern appeared like a spring. The strong wind broke through the car window, lifted the car in mid-air, and then slowly lowered it to the ground.
He didn't have any spare time to take care of other carriages, and it was all he could do to take care of his surroundings... Prilius cursed, he was of no use now, so he had to be a living flesh pad to cushion the gravity.
function.
Bang! Bang! The sounds of other carriages toppling were heard one after another, but the carriage Sheldon was in miraculously landed steadily!
"There is no way..." Merlin's hands were trembling. He had already tried to release four waves of time threads to fight against the unrivaled torrent of time. Without exception, all these time threads were forcibly cut.
Sweep away!
Sheldon saw Merlin's bloody fingertips, and then looked at the boy's face covered in cold sweat and pale, and an unknown sadness came into his heart. He no longer had the energy to care about other children, so the only thing he could do was
Yes, just hold him tightly and let him feel at ease.
"It's okay, it's okay..." Sheldon hugged Merlin carefully, blocking him like a solid wall, "This little thing -"
Hum——
In the end, the pointer failed to withstand the rushing torrent of time. The violent thread of time flattened the defense line laid by the pointer and swallowed up everyone in the carriage in an instant!
Tear-like pain appeared in every trachea, every piece of flesh and blood, and even every cell in everyone's body! Heart-rending screams filled the entire carriage, and then flowed out from the broken windows, being picked up by other carriages.
The clang of landing was drowned out.
Merlin's consciousness was strange. He released all the threads of time that he could release to wrap around the entire carriage, but they were instantly dispersed by the incoming waves! For a moment, the world was spinning, and everyone felt that their bodies had been cut into countless pieces.
The thin pieces of paper are slowly being glued together by a sticky force, except for one place that is constantly expanding!
Time and space are trembling, it is crying! Countless lens-like cracks unfold out of thin air, and sharp breaking sounds appear in everyone's ears one after another!
"Ugh! Ahhh!" Sheldon hugged Merlin tightly. He felt like his body was about to be split in two, and something was being pulled out of his body! Everyone felt so uncomfortable,
Blood was still flowing from Pelelius's nose, and his whole body was twitching constantly.
In addition to suffering the tearing pain, Merlin discovered that there was something in the depths of this power that wanted to steal the hard-won rune laws deep in his soul!
No, this is...this is!
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Merlin roared angrily, and dense threads of time curled out from every pore in his body, forming an invisible cocoon of time, protecting him firmly!
He asked for help from the soul of the nightmare countless times in his heart, but did not receive any positive answer! But Merrill knew that under the power of time, as long as even the slightest part of the nightmare was revealed, his body would explode from the inside, destroying everything.
trace!
Merlin felt only darkness. He wrapped himself in a huge cocoon, and the whole body was surrounded by turbulent waves. It was noisy... it was too noisy...
Suddenly, countless big dark hands appeared in the violent waves of time, crackling and knocking on the time cocoon where Merlin was, as if they wanted to stretch out their fingertips, through the gaps in the thread of time, to open the entire cocoon!
No...no! You can't take it away...absolutely not! Merlin curled up his body, the thread of time around him pierced the periphery of the cocoon, and snatched the one
A hand of nothingness pierced them all! But these hands are like ants that can't be killed, destroyed, or trampled, rushing one after another!
Absolutely...absolutely not! His cocoon is being torn open, just like the shameful clothes on his body are being stripped off one by one, revealing his rotten skin! You can't take it away...
..Can't!
A real fear emerged from his heart. This was the first time he felt fear, spontaneous, almost claustrophobic. There was no light here, nothing to rely on, nothing!
【Merlin! Merlin, Merlin!】
A familiar voice came back to his mind, no, to be precise, it came back to his heart. The voice was so old that Merlin felt a sense of intimacy, as if the person speaking to him was himself at the other end of time.
[Don’t let them take it away, this is yours! Don’t hesitate! Release your power and smash all your wishful thinking!]
Merlin opened his eyes suddenly, and the ancient and mysterious words naturally echoed in his mind.
【I am the creator of lies, I am the extraditer of life!】
【I am the collector of petals, I am the deceiver of truth!】
【I am the witness, I am the chooser!】
【I am the pupil of Didamo!】
【Everything will be turned into ruins of time——】
When the last word was spoken, a bright and clear light spot suddenly broke through the dark space, sweeping away the dark and desperate turbidity. The crack gradually widened, and countless gentle and familiar runes entangled Merlin, who was at a loss for a moment, flowing.
into his eyes.
[Grab them all, don’t be afraid anymore, don’t hesitate any more! Don’t! No more! Hesitant! 】
That's right...he didn't even recognize such a familiar voice...
"Damn it, it's not that difficult to avoid this torrent of time. After all, your body is close to perfect." Nightmare's voice was trembling, but he still acted as if nothing had happened, "Marquez, you have already
Are you ready? No, Merlin, are you ready?"
"You're finally here!" Marquez shouted excitedly.
"Huh, if I don't come, what will happen to you?" Nightmare's voice is still trembling, "There is not much time left for stagnation, take action!"
"I'm worried about you!"
Merlin's eyes were once again filled with nearly infinite rune chains. He spread out his body, waved his hands, and all the cocoons surrounding him spread out. Suddenly, countless dark, illusory hands in front of him were grabbing at him!
"Take them all from me!"
The little boy stretched out his right hand and grabbed the soft and thin wrist before the first big black hand grabbed him! Countless lights were flowing through his eyes, how could he hesitate anymore!
Bang! Bang, bang, bang! The other big hands around Merlin suddenly shattered like pricked soap bubbles, leaving only the big black hand that hurriedly withdrew, and quickly solidified, struggling in his hand!
"Don't let him escape!"
