Chapter 1112: Where is She? (1/2)
The roof was exactly the same as it normally looked, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with his body, either.
He blinked and sensed his own body before reflexively turning his head to the side, upon which he caught sight of the Star Cabin beside him.
This was the Star Cabin that had been specifically assigned to him so he could participate in the grand final of the competition.
Tang Wulin shook his head vigorously, and memory fragments began to surface in his mind.
”That was such a realistic dream? Could it be that I was too tired from my battle yesterday and fell asleep?”
Everything felt way too surreal. An abyssal tide of unprecedented proportions had suddenly struck, and he had become the core of the Blood God Array, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth to oppose the abyss. In the end, a seemingly invincible enemy had emerged from the abyssal plane, and after that, she appeared...
Tang Wulin chuckled as he shook his head. Everything was so absurd that it could've only been a dream. How could all of that have possibly taken place in reality?
He smiled as he got up, yet just as he was about to reach out for his outer garment, his hand suddenly stiffened in mid-air.
Was that... really all just a dream?
His heart rate suddenly began to elevate, and his hand also began to tremble slightly.
He abruptly rose to his feet before quickly dialing the number that he had already become extremely familiar with at this point.
”Beep, beep, beep...”
No one was picking up.
Unwilling to give up, he dialed the number again.
”Beep, beep, beep...”
He was still greeted by nothing more than the sound of the busy tone.
Tang Wulin's heart immediately sank, and he wrenched open the door of his room before rushing out of the barrack. He only managed to run a few steps before bumping into someone.
As such, he had no choice but to stop. ”Senior Blood Two.”
Blood Two had always held a rather neutral attitude toward him, and he was the Blood God that Tang Wulin had communicated the least with.
However, on this occasion, Blood Two's eyes immediately lit up at the sight of him, and a wide smile appeared on his face. ”I'm so glad you're awake, Wulin! You have my eternal gratitude.”He extended a grateful bow toward Tang Wulin as he spoke.
Tang Wulin hurriedly stepped aside. ”What are you doing, Senior Blood Two?” [In Chinese culture, if you sidestep a bow or any gesture of reverence, it's basically a humble gesture through which you're proclaiming that you're not worthy of their reverence.]
When Blood Two stood up straight again, there were already tears shimmering within his eyes. ”I really must thank you. I only have a single son, and no matter how strict I normally am to him, that doesn't change the fact that he's the most important person in my heart. You saved his life, and that means even more to me than if you had saved MY life, so how could I not thank you? Besides, I'm also thanking you on behalf of the entire Blood God Legion. You saved everyone from certain death, so you are the true hero of the legion.”
”Me? I saved Blood Nine? So that wasn't just a dream?”
Tang Wulin stared blankly at Blood Two, and even though there was incredulity in his heart, his memories were gradually becoming clearer. His body began to tremble slightly, and an indescribable sense of horror welled up in his heart.
Nothing else mattered to him, but the final figure that had appeared was her!
”No, this isn't real! Senior Blood Two, that was all just a dream, right? There was no abyssal tide, no abyssal emperors attacked us, and I didn't do anything, right?”
Blood Two was appraising him with a surprised expression. ”What do you mean? Are you alright, Wulin?”
Tang Wulin's face turned deathly pale, and he hurriedly rushed away. There was snow falling from the sky, but when he rushed out of the legion base, he was completely rooted to the spot.
On the snowy white mountain peaks, there were countless plants standing in a proud manner. They were already wilting away as they were unable to grow accustomed to the frosty weather here, but it was undoubtedly the case that they had once lived.
Everything was real. That wasn't just a dream; it had actually happened.
Tang Wulin stared blankly at the scenes laid out before him, and his entire body was trembling slightly.
