Chapter 978 Darkest
"She is...pregnant?"
Song Ying covered her lips in surprise, and Song Haoran also frowned.
Many times, people's attitudes towards pregnant women are always a bit subtle.
This woman may be extremely evil, this woman may be hated by everyone, but when a little life is brewing in this woman's body, her situation will be a little different.
She may not be forgiven, but the little life born in her body is innocent.
Spotless and pure life will always make people love it.
Our respect for pregnant women is due to her greatness in giving birth to life.
"This is really cruel!" Song Ying's face turned pale - there were only seven or eight-year-old Paul on the stage, and the little life in the belly of Qiao An in red. Only one of the two was allowed to live.
In an instant, when Song Ying looked at Alaya again, this girl with blue hair and blue eyes no longer made her feel delicate and cute, but inexplicably scared.
Because all of this was done under her will - it was she who prescribed such a cruel struggle for survival, and it was she who created this cruel situation with her own hands.
Qiao An, who was in red on the steel platform, stood blankly as if struck by lightning.
She lowered her head and touched her abdomen with her palms. Her hair covered her face. Her sorrow, joy and disgust could not be seen. Only her slightly trembling shoulders seemed so clear.
"Can't do this! Can't do this!!"
Song Ying suddenly became excited, walked quickly to Luo Qiu, and grabbed his arm tightly, "This is unreasonable, this is completely unreasonable! Think of a way! Think of a way!"
"I have already said that I will not interfere with Alaya's work." Luo Qiu shook his head, "Now that I have said it, we can only wait for the result."
"But this is so weird...it's so weird!"
Song Ying grabbed Luo Qiu's arm with both hands instead, "It's so unreasonable! Why must we have such a choice! Paul is just a child! What happened to him surviving? There are so many people in the world, billions Could it be that the population...can’t even accommodate such a small life?”
Luo Qiu was silent for a moment.
Song Ying was so anxious that she was a little frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Think of a solution quickly... There is no time!"
Alaya has already said that there are only sixty seconds left, but at this time time is passing quickly, maybe less than half, maybe less.
"Conservation." Finally, Luo Qiu said.
"What?" Song Ying was stunned, and Song Haoran behind her was also stunned.
"It's probably similar to the conservation of mass." Luo Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Physically, everything on the earth is energy conserved. Liquid, solid, and gaseous states transform into each other, and human beings should be in this cycle. Soul... If the soul has weight, it should also be included in the cycle of conservation. Since it is a party to conservation, even if there is just a little more of either party, everything will become chaotic and the current balance can no longer be maintained. Even at this stage..."
Speaking of this, Luo Qiu suddenly stopped and glanced at Alaya.
The girl just paid attention to the changes on the steel platform. At the same time, her arms slowly stretched out... Luo Qiu knew that the time was probably close to the limit.
At this moment, pieces of steel plates on the rolled-out steel platform began to crack and fall off, falling into the abyss below - which meant that the space left for Joan and Paul in red was shrinking rapidly.
The huge steel plate that fell from mid-air sank into the abyss in an instant, without making any sound - but it was this silence that made people feel scared.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, when there was very little space left for Joan in red and Paul to move, and when the peeling steel plate was approaching the feet of Joan in red.
She glanced down, and then suddenly walked towards Paul.
Behind her, the steel plates were still peeling off piece by piece - finally, when she came to Paul, there were only nine steel plates left, forming a nine-square grid.
She and Paul stood on the middle steel plate at the same time.
"Paul...really?" Joan in red suddenly asked, and reached out to touch Paul's cheek.
"Mom?" Paul looked at Qiao An in red timidly.
She suddenly asked softly: "Do you know who changed your name for you?"
Paul shook his head blankly.
"I don't know." Qiao An in red slowly knelt down and looked at Paul's face from bottom to top. His voice became gentle: "As for me... what's in my stomach is right now. There is a child to be born. Although Paul does not know who gave you his name, the child in my body does not have a name yet.”
The palm of red-clothed Qiao An slowly came down and grabbed Paul's wrist.
"Mom..." Paul was immediately frightened, "Afraid..."
Because at this moment, the remaining nine steel plates peeled off four of the four corners again - the only five remaining pieces looked like a cross.
"Paul is good, don't be afraid." Joan in red's voice became softer, "By the way, Paul, have you met your father?"
When Paul heard the word father, he immediately covered his ears - he seemed to be very afraid of hearing this name.
Joan in red opened her lips slightly, but soon she stood up and hugged Paul tightly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Come on, listen, can you hear anything from inside my belly?"
At this moment, the steel plate peeled off again.
……
Peeling off - four of the remaining five steel plates peeled off at this moment, leaving only a space for Qiao An and Paul in red to stand on.
At this time, Alaya stretched out her other palm again - which means that the time she gave has arrived, but the result has not yet appeared, then she will implement a backup plan to eliminate these 'unstable' factors. Go, and then recreate it, and plunge into the original time and space trajectory.
[Target locked. 】
[The cleaning program starts. 】
A little bit of light began to gather in the palms of Alaya's hands - they soon turned into blue-white light balls.
And among these two light balls, Song Haoran felt despair - he felt that these two light balls contained huge power!
"Can you wait a moment?" At this moment, Luo Qiu suddenly reached out and gently pressed Alaya's wrist, and looked at Alaya and said.
Alaya tilted his head and looked at Luo Qiu in confusion: [Request? Order? 】
"If I request, will you refuse?" Luo Qiu stared into Alaya's eyes.
The flashing blue light in the pupils began to fade, and then quickly gathered together. Alaya said directly: [Affirmative: The time limit has been reached and must be cleaned up. 】
Luo Qiu pondered for a moment - and during this moment, Alaya ignored him at all, and the two light balls were about to shoot out.
Luo Qiu then said: "Order."
The ball of light in the palms of Alaya's hands suddenly condensed and stopped. [Accepted: Sub-administrator Alaya, No. 003 suspends the clearing process... The program has been suspended. 】
With that said, Alaya slowly put down his hands, and then looked at Luo Qiu, [Report: The limit time has arrived, and the 'instability' factor will affect this time and space. It is currently being calculated...calculated...]
"Actually, there is still plenty of time left, right?" Luo Qiu looked at Alaya, "Since we have eliminated two in a row, it means that the original burden has been reduced a lot. In this case, we can delay it a little longer. ”
Alaya's eyes flickered non-stop, and he even closed his eyes directly. After a few seconds, he said: [Start correcting the limit time, correcting... correcting...]
Alaya fell into silence. Seeing this, Song Ying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When she looked at Luo Qiu, she showed a relieved smile, "I really didn't misjudge you!"
"No." Luo Qiu shook his head, "I just want to test whether the so-called root authority can really command Alaya... After the time is up, if the result has not been obtained, then the original ending It’s just a little delayed.”
"Anyway..." Song Ying gritted her teeth, "You still helped, didn't you? That at least proves that you and her are not the same... Do you know that the feeling you gave me just now is different from that of this Alai? Yeah, it gives me the same feeling!”
Luo Qiu did not speak, but turned around and looked silently at Qiao An and Paul in red on the last steel plate.
He suddenly asked: "Do you think her gentleness now is real or fake?"
Song Ying opened her mouth and looked subconsciously.
At this moment, Qiao An's face in red is full of gentleness, and the locks between her mouth are full of touching motherhood... just like a mother who is breastfeeding her child.
True or false, no one can tell.
She said that she is an actor herself.
……
"What did you hear?"
Although there was only the last steel plate left, there was no look of fear on the face of Joan in red. Her eyes were soft and seemed to be contagious. Paul's mood gradually stabilized.
Paul raised his head and looked at Joan in red with confusion, "Mom, I can't hear anything."
"Can you really not hear it?"
Paul shook his head slowly.
Qiao An in red caressed her belly gently, her eyes lowered, "But I can hear that the child in my belly has been calling me mother, mother. Do you know, this child will often chat with me. ”
Paul opened his eyes, as if feeling incredible.
Joan in red touched Paul's head and said, "Do you want to know what this child said to me?"
Paul nodded.
Joan in red's voice became clearer, "He told me, 'Mom, mom, I want to come out quickly, I want to meet my mother.' That's what he said to me. So..."
Qiao An in red smiled slightly, reached out to hold Paul's armpits, and lifted him up, "So, if the mother wants to let the child come out to meet, but needs Paul's help, will Paul help the mother? ”
"Yeah!" Paul nodded heavily.
Qiao An in red said softly: "What a good boy. Mom will always love you, always, always."
She just raised Paul, her hands reaching out of the only steel plate, "Always, always, forever, forever, forever..."
Seeing it, Qiao An in red was about to let go of her hand - once she let go, Paul would also fall into the abyss below and fall into the cracks of dimensions.
"No!"
Finally, Song Ying screamed in terror from below.
The sound was extremely penetrating. In this empty and quiet mirror world, the sound was clearly transmitted to the ears of Joan and Paul in red.
But Joan in red didn't pay attention. She just looked at Paul with a smile, "Paul, do you know? Mom really wants to be your mother. She really wants to be able to take care of you personally." But if Paul was here, then the mother would not be able to give birth to him.”
"Mom doesn't want Paul anymore?" Paul asked with fear.
"Yes." Joan in red suddenly said: "I will want Paul. The name of the child I give birth to will be...Paul."
Qiao An in red released his hands in an instant.
Paul fell directly from the only steel platform and fell directly into the abyss.
At this moment, Qiao An's eyes in red were cold. Looking at the fallen Paul, there was no expression on his face, and he said calmly: "I am not your mother. But there is one thing you can be thankful for, and that is You have actually met your father—although, only in this time and space.”
"Mom..."
The voice and the small figure quickly disappeared into the dark abyss... On the steel plate, only Qiao An in red was left.
Song Ying's hands tightly grasping Luo Qiu's arms also dropped weakly at this moment.
She looked at Qiao An in red who was standing on the steel plate, and her eyes gradually became cold, as if she was looking at a corpse, an inanimate object.
"Why...is this happening..." Song Ying felt a little cold and subconsciously hugged her body tightly.
She looked at Luo Qiu blankly, but found that Luo Qiu was moving at this time, without even blinking. She looked towards Song Haoran and saw that he, who had always been smiling, now looked slightly colder.
"I've already won!" Joan in red suddenly shouted loudly: "Alaya! I really won this time!"
[The correction of the limit time is completed...the limit time has reached the critical point...] Alaya, who paused, finally opened his eyes at this time. His blue eyes once again glowed with a glimmer of light, and he looked towards Luo Qiu: [Question: Whether to continue suspending the cleaning process. Question: Whether to continue pausing the removal process. 】
Luo Qiu was seen silently looking at Qiao An in red. After Alaya's third inquiry, he finally said: "Even though there are countless dazzling pearls in the sea, there are times when they cannot break out of their shells. Even, it can’t be formed at all... Just do it according to your preference, Alaya, I don’t care.”
【learn. ] Alaya nodded: [The root authority approval has been obtained and the cleanup process will continue. Planning to start with a backup plan, Qiao An creates again. 】
Alaya opened her hands at this time, and a ball of light was born from her hands, and slowly floated out.
In the sky, this ball of light gradually lengthened, transformed, trimmed, and finally transformed into a human form. When these lights began to fade away from the human form, what was revealed to everyone... was another Qiao. install.
It's just that Qiao An looks gray all over, as if he was made of clay.
It is inferred from Alaya's words that this Joan is not from the time and space she came from - she is the recreated Joan.
[Memory, re-creation. ] Alaya nodded towards the new Qiao An's forehead at this time, [Fusion started, virtual soul implantation... implantation successful... fusion... estimated fusion time is four hundred seconds... wait. 】
Seeing that the skin color of this recreated Qiao An gradually became normal, like a real sleeping person...Qiao An in red suddenly screamed!
"What are you doing!!! What are you doing!!!" Qiao An in red yelled crazily at this moment: "I won!! I have won! The last person left is me!! I have I am the winner of this time! Alaya! Let me go! br>
[Rejection: The victory conditions have not been met, and there are still ‘unstable’ factors. Clear the program and start again. 】
Alaya slowly raised her palm at this moment, and the ball of light with terrifying power emerged from her palm again.
"What do you mean the victory conditions have not been met!! Obviously I am the only one left!!!" Joan in red was facing Alaya, panicking, "Are you blind! Paul even asked me to throw him down! How come there is an 'unstable' factor here!"
But Alaya didn't say anything this time.
This made Joan in red even more hysterical, "Liar!! You are all liars!! You are just using me for fun!! You are all liars!!! You have planned not to let anyone go from the beginning! Let us all die! Take away everything from me! ”
"Idiot!" Suddenly, Song Haoran's voice rang out.
This made Qiao An in red even more irritated, but Song Haoran sneered at this moment: "You are quite smart, why can't you understand the simplest things? Although you are the only one left on the stage? There is another one What? Did you really win?”
"There's one more... there's one more?" Qiao An in red opened his eyes wide at this time and turned around suddenly.
However, this steel plate is only one square meter in size. Who else can hide there? Joan in red kept turning her body, seeing only air, "You lied to me!! There is nothing here!!"
"Who said there is no more?" Song Haoran narrowed his eyes and continued to sneer: "He is in your body, he is the child you are carrying."
Qiao An in red felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
“Don’t you understand yet?”
Song Haoran glanced at Alaya, and then said: "She said that the victor can replace Qiao An in the original time and space, our time and space. But she did not say, including this child who would not have existed in the first place... the child in your belly, I'm afraid you're away conceived in this time and space, right? So for this time and space, this child itself is the biggest 'unstable' factor! As long as you keep carrying him, you can't win!"
"It can't be... it can't be... it can't be true! I don't believe it, I don't believe it... I don't believe it!!" Joan in red suddenly pressed her head hard with both hands, "You lied to me!! You are all lying to me!”
Song Haoran is a son of the world and has his own rules of grudges and grudges. At this time, he looked at Qiao An in red and sneered: "It is especially forgivable to do evil if God does it, but if you do it yourself... you will not survive."
"I don't want——!"
Qiao An in red suddenly screamed. At this moment, she suddenly raised her palm - and in her hand, she clearly held a fork for Western food!
This fork should have been made by Qiao An in the sweater. When did it get into the hands of Qiao An in the red? Doubts flashed through Song Haoran's mind... Did Qiao An in sweater accidentally fall down when he pushed Qiao An in white off the platform?
But there was no time for Song Haoran to think about it carefully.
Because at this time, Qiao An in red suddenly inserted the Western fork into his abdominal cavity...
【start up. 】
The ball of light in Alaya's palm immediately detached and shot towards Qiao An in red.
The ball of light suddenly shone brightly, like the dazzling glare of the sun.
In this white light, Qiao An in red on the steel plate let out a shrill cry - when the light ball approached, Qiao An in red was seen raising his hands tremblingly, as if he was holding something in his hands. In these hands...the life dripping with blood.
"I won..."
The blazing white light finally swallowed up everything, all sight and all feelings.
……
When the light gradually dissipated, the steel plate was no longer visible in the sky, and of course, the presence of Qiao An in red was also invisible.
But it seems that this does not represent a complete completion - because the recreated Qiao An has not yet opened his eyes.
"Are people... really so scary?" Song Ying looked at Song Haoran blankly, "In the end, did she give... to..."
Song Haoran said nothing.
"At least, he has been here. Although he has not opened his eyes, and has never seen the mother who gave birth to him for the first time...but he has indeed been here."
That was Luo Qiu's voice.
When Song Ying looked back, Luo Qiu walked forward and jumped into the dark abyss without warning.
"Wait for me here."
