MTL - Unlimited Cycles of Death-Chapter 66 Homecoming 02┃ Even if you didn't originally.

The candlelight was swaying.

Muqin saw a lot of candle lights on the ground, the kind of candlesticks with a round metal candlestick with candles on them. There are a lot of these candle lights. On the ground in the corner, in the small hollow space recessed on the rock wall of the cave, they are placed everywhere. Each lamp is burning with flames, which are very warm yellow rays.

Although these candlelights are not very bright, once the number is increased, the cave behind the waterfall curtain can be illuminated, making the scene in this cave clear in front of Muqin.

Muqin could see a huge chair deep in the cave. Many vines and thorns grew in the rock walls and gaps next to the chair, surrounding the huge chair and even wrapping it.

That chair is a typical European throne, but it doesn't have a soft cushion back, no golden trim or European carvings. It is made of the same material as ice crystals. The sharp ice cones are erected on the back of the chair, and the armrests present random and irregular polygons. It is very huge, and there are no problems with three or four people sitting on it.

In addition, there are many vines and thorns entwined on the chair, which are entangled in the back and armrests. People who sit on it will be hurt by thorns if they are not careful.

The only thing worth appreciating in this cold and painful chair is the butterfly. The thorn vines are full of large red flowers, attracting many butterflies that don't know where to come from. They are colorful butterflies. It seems that there are more than ten Only, constantly around the throne of ice crystals.

Muqin walked across the numerous candlelights on his feet and approached the butterfly throne. Through the dense vines and thorns, he could see a person sitting on the throne, and the person was sitting there, hanging down. The head, sitting motionless, was like falling into an eternal sleep.

Muqin approached him or her. When he got close enough, the thorn vines blocked Muqin's footsteps. Muqin didn't want to. He reached out and grabbed the thorny thorns and pulled it apart. He ignored it. In view of the pain caused by the stab wound on his hand, countless his **** hands, his attention was completely focused on the person sitting on the throne, he knew that if he wanted to pass, he must pass.

Muqin, who walked through countless thorns and was covered with blood, finally came to the throne, and by the swaying candlelight, he could see the people sitting on the throne, but then Muqin found in shock ... more than one person!

Yes, there are two people sitting on this butterfly throne!

Just these two people, one is sitting and the other is lying. The butterfly throne is very large, and there is no problem lying on it, but the lying person must curl up.

However, the curled-up man was dead, and after a long time of death, he turned into a pair of white bones. According to the shape of the bones and the size of the pelvis, Muqin can speculate that this is a woman's body, this white body. Also wearing tattered and cut out clothes, that should be the player's fixed gray clothing in the game.

The man who was sitting was alive. Unlike a woman who had become a bone, he was a flesh-and-blood man. His hair had grown to the waist, and his head was shaved, so he could not see his face. He had no clothes on his upper body and was wearing only a pair of tattered pants with a lot of missing legs.

The living man was sitting close to the woman's bones and had the woman's bones head against his thighs. One of his hands even gripped the woman's phalanx tightly. He seemed to maintain this position for a long time, the whole person looked stiff, and his body was covered with a thick layer of gray.

Muqin can imagine that when this woman died, the man kept holding her hand tightly, and they sat together in this chair, in the dark cave, to meet the end of the world.

Mu Qin's sudden arrival did not cause the man's slightest response. He still sat down with his head down in silence. Mu Qin watched him silently for a while. He was not sure whether the man was asleep or simply Supposedly, Muqin decided to approach each other.

Therefore, Mu Qin stepped closer and closer to this butterfly throne, leaving his own blood footprints where he stepped on, because Mu Qin had just passed through the thorny thorns. It was thorns and blood flowed, but Mu Qin seemed to feel no pain.

Muqin was close enough to the man, he was already standing in front of each other.

Immediately after, Mu Qin pondered for a moment, reaching out to touch the man's hair, he wanted to look at the other person's face.

But as Mu Qin stretched out his hand, the motionless person sitting on the throne suddenly reacted. As soon as Mu Qin reached out, the other party quickly raised the other hand with a thunderbolt and caught Mu. Chin's wrist.

Mu Qin was startled by him, subconsciously took a small step back, trying to shake off the opponent's hand, but the man gripped tightly, his nails were very long, and he fell into Mu Qin's flesh almost unconscious Why, Mu Qin, who had just been **** with thorns, didn't feel any pain. He was scratched by this man's nails, and Mu Qin frowned.

He lowered his voice and said, "Let me go."

The other side did not respond, and still held Muqin's hand tightly, but relaxed his strength slightly. Then the man was silent for a long time, then slowly raised his head and looked at Muqin.

Mu Qin finally saw the other person's face from the noisy hair gap, a dirty face, dust and black dirt, and a pair of muddy eyes.

In terms of face, this man is in his thirties or so, with a good-looking appearance, a handsome temperament, a strong body, and his face ... It makes Mu Qin look familiar, but Mu Qin can pack Voting said he had never seen this man before.

So who is he?

The man and Mu Qin looked at each other for a long time, the other's eyes were quite cloudy, giving a feeling of unconsciousness, Mu Qin couldn't even confirm whether the other was really watching himself, Mu Qin felt that this guy seemed to be through Mu Qin in Staring at "others."

For a long time, the man spoke to Muqin in a husky voice. He said, "Who are you?"

Muqin thought a little, and answered, "My name is Muqin."

"Mu ... Qin ...?" The man's throat gave a broken gong sound, probably because he hadn't spoken for a long time. The voice wasn't really good, but Mu Qin heard a hint of consternation in the other's voice. As if very incredible, the man asked, "Why are you here ... you shouldn't be here ..."

Mu Qin pursed his lips: "Why shouldn't I be here?"

Instead of looking at Muchin, the man lowered his head and let go of Muchin's hand. He continued his hoarse voice and said, "There is nothing here. I have nothing to give you without what you want, so Go back ... leave me alone. "

"Who are you?" Muqin also asked this crucial question.

The man replied, "You won't be interested in knowing who I am."

"Of course I'm interested. I want to know who you are now." Mu Qin asked, "tell me who you are."

"I don't remember." The man compromised slightly under Muqin's questioning. He said, "I've been here too long, and I've long forgotten who I am."

"What about this woman?" Muqin turned his gaze on the curled corpse next to him.

The man said, "She is my prisoner."

"Prisoner?" Muqin was puzzled.

The man laughed suddenly, and he made a weird laughter with his terrible broken gong, and said to Muqin, "Yeah, I'm holding her here, so she's my prisoner."

The man's words made Muchinton pause, and then said, "But she is dead and has become a corpse. Can this also be called your 'prisoner'?"

Muqin made the man's head lower, Muqin noticed that his hand holding the woman's phalanx was shaking, shaking so hard, he shivered for a long time, and said to Muqin, "Even if he died, he was my prisoner."

Having said that, he seemed excited and shouted at Muqin unfriendlyly: "Don't sway in front of me, leave here! Get out of my world."

Muqin ignored his unfriendliness, looked around, and said to the man, "You say this is your world?"

The man said: "Of course this is my world! I am the only master of this world!"

The man said that he was starting to get impatient. He was anxious to drive Muqin out of here, and then he began to control his own power. Under his will, the vines around the butterfly throne suddenly moved, like a strip. The twirling viper rushed up towards Muqin.

Muqin felt the threat and subconsciously backed away, trying to avoid these vine attacks, but this place was full of vines and thorns in all directions. Muqin had nowhere to hide. The more he stepped back, the more he stepped in. Behind the thorns.

Just before he stepped into the thorns, the vines rushed up to restrain him, and lifted Muqin vigorously. Muqin was wrapped around the vines and hung in the air.

After catching Muqin, the man continued to Muqin: "You should leave here, don't come back."

Mu Qin was unwilling. He couldn't get rid of these weird but powerful vines and had to shout, "You have to tell me who you are !?"

"Why should I tell you?" The man looked disdainful. "I don't know you and have nothing to do with you. You are just a stranger who broke into my world. Of course I want to drive you out."

"Nonsense!" Mu Qin was suddenly angry. He felt a layer of something like anger pouring from his chest. He shouted to the man, "You know me!"

The man finally raised his head and stared at Mu Qin with those murky black eyes: "Whether I don't know you or not, you shouldn't come here. This is not the place you should look for. You should live your life well, no Okay? "

"Life?" Mu Qin sneered at the man suddenly. "You mean countless reincarnations of life and death in the marginal world? Or do you now sit on the throne of butterflies? This is my life, you want me to live like this ?"

Muqin's words seemed to stifle the man. He glared at Muqin and said, "No ... you can't ... She didn't touch the white card to you, you can't enter the marginal world. This impossible!"

The man's words almost allowed Muqin to confirm his identity.

Muqin said, "You're right, I don't really care who you are anymore, but I want to know your prisoner, I'm not here to find you."

"Prisoner ... she died, as you can see, she's gone." The man suddenly became very frustrated. Instead of ordering the vines to hang Muqin, he put Muqin down and the man lowered his head again. "I'm the only one left."

"Only one of you ... what am I?" Mu Qin reached out and wiped the blood off his face, then sneered.

"Muqin ... You listen to me." The man said to Muqin after a moment of silence, "You should not have died, but you still entered the marginal world, right?"

"Yeah." Muqin recalled the ghost girl from the previous library map. "Someone told me it was because I was born from a marginal world."

"You were indeed born from a fringe world ... you were born here." The man lowered his head and clenched the phalanx of the woman's bone. "She gave birth to you, and she wants to send you back to the real world, and then We did it. "

"Is your biological father?" Mu Qin asked calmly.

"Yes." After a long silence, the other side calmly replied to Mu Qin, "I have a death card on my body, and I will not die, so I have maintained this appearance."

Muqin said: "So you tied her to death like this?"

The man did not speak, as if by default.

After a while, he said, "I can't bear her, so I tied her here and let her stay with me forever."

Mu Qin ignored the man's answer. Mu Qin approached the man two steps. He wanted to see the dead body next to the other side. The dead woman's bone was very thin and the bones were thin. In the weak wind, he looked like the ghost mother he had seen many years ago.

"You killed her." Mu Qin found himself completely unable to look away, and he kept silently watching the bone. "You killed my mother."

"If you want revenge, you can kill me," the man said to Muqin, "but I don't recommend you do this, because as soon as I die, you will be the next target of this throne."

"I won't kill you." Mu Qin no longer looked at his mother's bones, but instead turned his eyes on this shaved and exhausted man. "I want you to sit in this chair forever."

The man smiled bitterly at Mu Qin and clenched the phalanx of the female corpse in his hand: "Good, I think so, I will sit here forever with her."

"So do you get what you want? It's really annoying." Mu Qin sneered at him. "You pushed the person you love deeply into the abyss."

The man closed his mouth again and did not speak. The air became quiet for a moment. After Mu Qin took a deep breath, he said to the man, "Tell me what is going on, I want to know everything."

The man seemed hesitant for a while, and finally compromised and said, "Yes, I do need to tell you everything."

"Actually this is a very simple story." The man said, "I teamed up with her and entered the game together. I was drawn to the death card, but we met a difficult master. I didn't kill any one of them. They all ran, only she stayed, because as soon as she left, I would be wiped out by the system along with this map. "

"She didn't want me to die. She said she would stay here with me forever."

"This is a good map because there are waterfalls as sources of water, there are many trees and plants growing on the cliffs, there are edible wild fruits, and there is light on the tiankeng. Although it is mostly cloudy, it is occasionally visible A ray of sunlight came in, and no matter how bad it was, I could feed her to eat my flesh. "

The man paused and seemed to be caught in the memory: "I admit that I have selfishness, and I don't want to die, so I tried my best to leave her here ... At first it was good, we were all fine, but with the passage of time She always looked up to see the light projected from the tiankeng. That tiankeng entrance is the exit from the map. There are two ways to go out. One is to find the climbing tools in the cave and climb directly. The other is to find the cave maze. There is access to the road outside. "

"I'm worried. I thought she wanted to leave. We stayed on this map for a long time. It's a dim place that doesn't see the sun. There is no one other than each other ... everyone has to stay in such a place. She's crazy, so it's fine for her to go out, but I'm scared ... I don't want to be left. "

"Then just then, I found such a chair and a butterfly throne made of ice crystals on the map."

Muqin could almost think of the ending, and he laughed: "So you took this chair and used the power of the throne to trap her with these vines and thorns. She truly became your 'prisoner', and She was still pregnant with your child. "

The man reached out and covered his face: "Yes, that's it. She didn't show refusal or resistance to being restrained by me at that time. She just said that I hope I can find a way to send the child out after it is born. She does not want her children to be bound in this map. "

"I agree, although I don't know what to do, but after you were born, I did use the power of the throne to send you out. You were born in this world and you have a very special physique. Your existence and that of Bai Like a card, she can shuttle back and forth between the real and the marginal world ... just before sending you out, she became very weak after giving birth, and she was malnourished in this map for a long time. Having a baby took her last Strength, so after feeding you a few times, you died of weakness. "

"So you're saying it was me who killed the mother?" Muqin's tone was full of sarcasm.

The man shook his head slightly: "I didn't mean that ... if I let go and send her away from this picture, she wouldn't die at all, she shouldn't have died ... I did kill her."

"Since she died, the ghost I saw when I was a kid is indeed a mother?" Muqin wondered: "Why did I see her soul?"

"The power of the throne allows me to save her soul." The man said, "It's wonderful. I don't understand how I did it, but I did give her some power to make her soul free. Out of this world. She said she wanted to see you, to see you grow up, and I let her go. She would always watch you for a long time, and then came back and told me how you were. She was happy and alive than her. I am happier when I am happy, and I am happier when she is happy. I thought we could maintain this state forever. "

"But one day, she started to disappear, her soul became more and more transparent, no matter how much power I instilled in her, she was gradually disappearing, and she was beginning to lose her mind. She seemed to realize that she really wanted to After leaving, saying goodbye to me, I will be gone. "

The man was very calm and seemed sad when he told these things. The hoarse voice contained the pain: "I ended up being left alone, no matter how much I tried to keep her ... In the end, all she left me was This bone, so I can only sit here and wait for the end of everything. "

When the man said this, he was very sad: "I won't go anywhere, Muqin ... but I hope you can leave this place and leave this world."

"It's impossible," Muqin said. "I don't know what's going on. I'm always pulled back into this world. I haven't died, I haven't touched white cards or any media, and I will also enter the marginal world. "

Muqin's words made men think for a long time, and then he sighed, "You shouldn't be a child."

"Why do you say that?"

The man slightly shook his head: "Don't mind, I didn't expect you to be born. When she was pregnant, I was very happy. We all thought that having a child would change this cruel situation. I really look forward to yours. Appear, but now you want to come, you really shouldn't be born. "

"Is it because my birth directly caused my mother's death?" Muqin asked.

The man shook his head: "No, not this ... I mean ... Mu Qin, my mother and I are both dead in the real world. We have been given a different kind of rebirth in the marginal world, but this does not mean We are living people. The children born of the love between the two 'dead people', that is, you ... are not living people. "

Muqin immediately understood the meaning of the man. He said, "In other words, I have been dead since I was born."

"Yeah ... you have no soul." The man raised his head and stared at Muqin. "You and me and your mother are different. Although we are dead, our soul is here, but you haven't ... you started from the beginning , There is no soul, no emotions, but you have your own will. You are not crying or laughing when you are born. You only use crying to express your needs when you are necessary. You are an empty shell of thinking. "

The man's words made Mu Qin feel a little creepy. Mu Qin said: "You said that I have no soul and no emotion? This is impossible, I can fall in love with others ... I will even be angry because you killed your mother."

"That's just because you have lived in human society for too long and gradually learned to imitate human emotions." The man told Muqin the truth cruelly: "The real you really don't have a soul and feelings, I believe you also have some experience. You In many cases, it is indeed possible to have feelings for others, but this feeling is just that your sane brain tells you that you should do this, so that it meets social standards, meets human values, and allows you to live better ... more like It's a 'person'. "

Muqin inexplicably felt his heart twitching and beat too hard in his chest, which made Muqin feel pain: "You mean my feelings for the person I love, my mother, and my feelings for you, these Are they all false? Are all the emotions that I think should be "do this and better"?

"I can't determine whether it is false." The man said that there was nothing he could do. "I don't think it will affect you. You are well educated by the adoptive parents. Even if you didn't have it, they taught you to go. With it, you can freely choose to do everything you want, as long as you feel right. "
