The yellow light in the sky di, like the transmission tower underneath it The heavy-duty tires which had already dug deep into the ground were still rolling, causing a storm of sand and dust The truck continued to push forward, bending the frame even further The tower eventually tumbled towards the direction of the truck The children stopped singing Confusion colored Holly’s young face before she crawled into her htmare”
That sent renewed hope to the citizens as well as the land’s travellers They knew the strange ritual had been disturbed!
The transmission tower appeared to be the anchor of the ritual
“This, this…” Kathlyn stahtmare man?”
“That is ish to knoell” Peacock sighed They knew they would not be able to replicate the nightmare man’s heroics because they did not possess sufficient ot to the transreater its influence If they attehtasped and turned towards each other “He has stopped it?””That brother is awesome””Thank God we’ve listened to hi theroup was not the culprit, if anything, they were there to help them so they better wised up and followed their instructions Thankfully, none of the citizens ere inside the protective circle had been lured out into the desert Those who refused to listen to Kathlyn’s advice earlier saw this and quickly hurried over while screaroup did not stop thereater the resistance to the ritual, the likelier the chance of it being interrupted
“How about we push on the horns altogether?” Kathlyn suggested, “That should interrupt the singing right?” Peacock already understood what car horns were, it was as loud as the shout of ten thousand people She agreed immediately, “yes, let’s make everyone’s car screaotten used to the strange vernacular of these people so they quickly crawled back into their cars The car horns of all the vehicles inside the circle rang noisily It was shrill and loud, causing their eardrum to buzz The children all closed their eyes and pinched their faces in pain But it was clearly working, with this din, the already weak singing voice was almost drowned out Ironically just like the lyric, her voice was dying
Beep, beep! The car horns echoed through the night So in the desert suddenly ca position when they noticed the headless bodies flanking them They screamed and started to run
“Come over here!” Kathlyn and Tom shouted, “Stay at the outer periious disease, these newcomers were not allowed inside the circle At the same ti, it did not appear like it would stop until the tower crashed Hearing the noisy car horns, a chill sht! Make all the noise you can to disturb this ritual!’
Gu Jun was getting closer to the centre of the tower and it was noise to remain inside the truck He picked up so on the gas pedal He unhooked the safety belt and squeezed his shaking body out through the distorted car door His body fell with a thud on the ground He took a deep breath before cli up and shuffled back to the circle
Gu Jun looked up at the night sky, the yellow light was fading Regardless of the purpose of the ritual, it had been temporarily stopped
“Secret Spell Appear, Death Follow Suit, Shadow De and yellow papers, had appeared but death had not followed suit, they had done enough to stop the prophecy… right? But what did the second half of the prophecythrough dimension, Gu Jun’s heart skipped violently…’I wonder what is happening back at the Phecda headquarters…’
…
The stars returned to the night sky, even the crescent low of Rohini was fading Suddenly different sounds entered the experimental field, it sounded like car horns mixed with emotional human voices
“Hold your firearms, people…” Xue Ba ordered with difficulty, “Ourinfluenced…” The people with the firear cursed loudly before she released her grip on the rifle She uttered back in the same difficulty, “We’ve been tricked… this is not Gu Jun, not even the path to Dreamlands…”
