Purgatory Artist-Chapter 267: Dream Sequence
Chapter 267 - Dream Sequence
Frost attacked.
The entire ruins were completely frozen.
The black stone statue's voice came from afar:
"Deceiver, you are not qualified to be part of my collection, you should be eaten!"
The ruins were silent.
There was no one, nor was there any response.
After a long time.
The frost that filled the surroundings gradually receded, returning to the sparse forest and disappearing.
As if nothing had happened.
In the ruins, Liu Ping had already disappeared.
...
When the frost began to spread, Liu Ping's vision suddenly became much clearer.
[You're dead]
[You've explored a new unknown ruin, your Experience Points continue to increase]
[The Soul Corroding Fog has disappeared]
[You're in the Land of Dreams]
[The consciousness of dream is no longer erasing you]
[You're safe for now]
Liu Ping was slightly surprised.
He died more than 60,000 times in two days, but when he arrived at this ruin, he was suddenly safe?
He looked towards the forest.
The frost continued to attack, about to spread to the ruins.
But in the blink of an eye, the forest suddenly turned into a continuous green mountain range.
The frost also completely disappeared.
It was as if the world had changed.
The empty and broken room that he originally stood in was also covered with a brand new red carpet.
There was a painting on the wall.
There was steaming hot food on the table, the desktop calendar next to it had crossed out 29 days in a row, and made a mark on the 30th day.
Fresh flowers were placed in a vase on the windowsill, swaying in the wind.
The sound of children playing could be heard from outside.
The world was peaceful.
Liu Ping was stunned for a while.
"A dream?" he asked doubtfully.
Yana suddenly said: "It is indeed a dream, but what exactly is going on with such a powerful dream, we still need to see more"
"See what?" Liu Ping was confused.
"Let's see what happens later." Hua Qingkong joined in and said, "If something good happens, such as enrolling you in a certain academy or exploring a mystic realm to search for treasures, we can basically confirm that you're in the Human Sequence." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Human ... Sequence.
"If it's really a human Sequence, it's really an unexpected gain" Yana said.
"Yes, that's right, if it's a full set of Sequence Cards, that's even better, there must be a hidden ultimate weapon" Hua Qingkong said.
Liu Ping stood by the window and looked outside.
There were many tall buildings, one after another.
There was a lot of traffic.
This place seemed to be a huge human city.
Knock knock knock
Someone knocked on the door.
Liu Ping turned around, walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"Your letter."
A letter was slipped under the door.
Liu Ping bent down, picked up the letter and tore it open.
A beautiful card appeared in front of him. On it was written:
"Congratulations."
"You have entered the interview segment."
"Please come downstairs in ten minutes. The commuter bus to the Law Enforcement Bureau will be waiting for you at the intersection."
After reading it, Liu Ping placed the card on the table.
"The two of you have guessed wrongly. I'm not going to the academy to study, nor am I going to some secret realm. He's going to be a law enforcer" Libertas joked.
"As an enforcer,He can catch bad guys, hone his skills, and improve his adaptability. It's a good thing, right?" Yana said uncertainly.
Hua Qingkong said, "It's rare to see something like that, How strange."
"We can only take one step at a time" Liu Ping said.
He put away the card, opened the door, and walked out.
Ten minutes later.
As expected, there was a bus waiting for him at the intersection.
Liu Ping got on the bus, but found that the bus was empty. Other than the driver, he was the only one there.
"Am I the only one who entered the interview segment?" he asked.
The driver said without turning his head, "Of course. Our selection is very strict. It has been many years since anyone entered the interview segment."
The bus started.
Half an hour later.
Liu Ping sat in the Law Enforcement Bureau's conference room. Opposite him were three men in police uniforms.
"You should be a card master, right?"
One of them asked.
"Yes, I am," Liu Ping said truthfully.
"Very good. We are very satisfied with you."
Another person said. He raised his hand to look at his watch and continued, "There are five more minutes before you get off work. You will enter the last assessment directly."
The third person said, "We have a special mission tonight. Do you understand?"
"Do I need to participate?" Liu Ping asked.
"No, you need to stay here on duty. There are all kinds of documents, equipment, and temporary prisoners here."
A key was placed on the table.
"Remember, the prisoners are locked in the basement. You must not let them escape."
"Yes." Liu Ping took the key.
The three of them stood up together and said, "Stay on duty for a night and you will be considered to have passed the interview. You can officially join us."
They nodded at Liu Ping, got up and walked out of the conference room.
Liu Ping stood up and fell into deep thought.
"A very strange dream" Yana commented.
"... And they ran too fast."
Liu Ping slowly pushed open the door of the conference room and looked outside.
The entire Law Enforcement Bureau had become empty. There was no one.
He was the only one left.
"Listen, Liu Ping. I feel that something is amiss. This situation is a bit like an ancient sequence" Hua Qingkong suddenly said.
Liu Ping said, "You mean ..."
"That era has long disappeared. I only had a little impression of it when I was young. I only hope that it is not the case now" Hua Qingkong said.
"Liu Ping is not afraid of death. Don't scare us" Libertas said.
No one said anything.
After a while, Zhao Chanyi said lazily, "Young man, you died too young. You don't know ... many things are scarier than death."
The next moment.
Pa!
All the lights in the Law Enforcement Bureau went out.
The world was dark. They could not even see his fingers.
Liu Ping flipped his hand and tied the Shadow Blade to his waist. He strode to the entrance of the Law Enforcement Bureau.
He pushed open the door.
Everything outside the door disappeared.
Darkness covered everything.
It was as if the entire world had been destroyed and only the Law Enforcement Bureau was left.
"Don't go out. I will die again if I go out."
The panda plushie sighed.
Liu Ping looked at the endless darkness. Warning signs kept appearing in his heart.
Bang!
He closed the door.
Dead silence.
Darkness.
Liu Ping walked around the empty Law Enforcement Bureau and slowly thought about everything that had happened.
"Hua Qingkong, do you see anything?" He asked softly.
"I have some clues. But if we want to confirm anything, we have to go to the basement and see what is going on with the so-called prisoner." Hua Qingkong sighed.
Liu Ping took out the key.
He saw that the key had already undergone some changes.
From an ordinary key, it gradually grew longer and turned into a long bronze key. Mysterious runes constantly appeared on its surface.
The law enforcers said not to let the prisoner escape from the basement ...
Liu Ping pushed open the stairs leading to the basement and walked down step by step.
Nothing happened.
It was as if billions of invisible existences were hidden in the darkness, quietly watching his actions.
They were waiting ...
Liu Ping stood in front of the basement door and inserted the key into the lock.
Click.
The door opened.
Liu Ping pushed open the door and was instantly illuminated by the fire.
He saw a world.
It was a world filled with boundless crimson sea of fire.
Endless scorching flames reflected the dark sky.
In the sea of fire, countless living beings wailed and struggled. But their hands and feet were all tied with heavy shackles. They could not escape from the sea of fire.
One after another, huge monsters walked slowly in the sea of fire.
They lowered their heads and looked at the wailing humans. From time to time, they would sprinkle some flames, causing the people who were suffering from the pain to scream even more miserably.
Liu Ping looked at one of the monsters.
A line of small words floated above its head.
[Servant of God, level 70]
Liu Ping gently and silently closed the door.
The fire disappeared.
The world returned to darkness.
"I know, this is the Dream Sequence of that era." Yana suddenly said.
Her voice had a hint of nervousness that had never been there before.
"Dream Sequence? What's going on? "Liu Ping asked.
Hua Qingkong's voice sounded.
"She's right. This is a very ancient Dream Sequence. Perhaps you have heard of the era when it was born and the things that happened during that era."
"The Nightmare Era."
"It belonged to the Ancient gods."
