Chapter 1123 A Wish Nourished by Despair 1
"Help us! Someone please help us!"
A piercing sound rang out, and Shi Yu felt excruciating pain all over his body.
The voice seemed familiar, but Shi Yu couldn't recall any memories from it, which was very strange.
Shi Yu opened his eyes and assessed the condition of the body, but discovered a very strange phenomenon.
The pain did not seem to originate from physical injury, and even the weakness from massive blood loss felt like an illusion.
This body seems to be trapped somewhere, but the original owner doesn't know where she is trapped; she only knows fear and darkness.
It was as if a dark memory kept recurring, until I became numb.
Shi Yu immediately dispelled the illusion and found himself in a liquid. When he opened his eyes, he saw various laboratory equipment, and he knew what was going on.
A phantom moth appeared, a messenger of spring, capable of moving between reality and illusion, without much fluctuation of power.
Through the perspective of the moth, Shi Yu saw the entire laboratory. It was filled with neatly arranged culture chambers, but they didn't look high-tech at all. Glass and metal chambers were embedded with wriggling, viscous, asphalt-like liquid.
Although we don't know what it is, it's most likely something that allows them to enter that illusion.
Finally, other life forms appeared in Shi Yu's perspective. They resembled mushrooms, emitted a ghostly glow, and were discussing something.
Shi Yu couldn't understand their language, but he could understand their words.
They are discussing how to take over the world and how to create a self.
So what exactly is this?
Shi Yu touched his body and found that the viscous liquid had not come into direct contact with him. The liquid in these chambers was pure nutrient solution. So how were the illusions generated?
Shi Yu felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him, apparently realizing he was no longer in the illusion, thanks to something like a drug.
Shi Yu left behind a messenger of spring and entered a dream.
This was probably the scene when the original owner was on the verge of death. Shi Yu felt those feelings of resentment and pain being pulled away, and the subtle sensations were like a dull pain being gently peeled away.
So this is how the self of those lives is born?
Through the agony of near-death, a person's mind is repeatedly tormented, and those subtle perceptions of pain then become a converter of consciousness.
Shi Yu was not the original body and was not afraid of these pains. He pushed aside the thing in front of him, which turned out to be a stone slab.
Looking up, he saw a scene of ruins, the aftermath of a natural disaster, whether it was an earthquake or a typhoon, Shi Yu judged.
There was no one there at first, but suddenly it was as if some people appeared. The painful wails came, some real and some fake, and someone came over to tell him something.
Like memories, these scenes are fragmented, but they are not from the original owner's perspective, but rather from the perspective of others involved in this disaster.
Shi Yu did not wake these people up in reality, because if they woke up, they would most likely collapse or become numb, and the pain would transform into the self of those lives, and the price would be borne by these people.
"Hello? Do you need help?"
A creature emitting a faint glow appeared; it was quite adorable, but unfortunately, Shi Yu already knew their true nature.
"Hello, what's your name?"
Shi Yu smiled and answered the creature, also wanting to know what they wanted to do.
"My name is Wish, and I can grant your wishes. Would you like to consider it?"
It turned its round body around, knowing that its cuteness would lower the guard of others.
Shi Yu discovered that he lacked human emotions or could not understand humans. Shi Yu's reaction was not that of a normal person. He was neither curious nor afraid, and he did not find it strange.
