  ”Dream entrustment?!”

  An Qingyu froze in place when she heard these two words.

  ”For the past two days, I’ve been having a strange dream, I dreamt that the moon in the sky turned red, there was blood and corpses all over the place, my father crawled out of the sea, his two eyes were red, he fell down on his knees amidst the blood and chanted something insanely while kneeling down and worshipping the red moon.”

  Chen Gou’s frown grew tighter and tighter, “At first, the dream ended here, I thought it was just a nightmare due to my excessive grief and quickly forgot about it. But every day that followed, I repeated this dream, and his voice in the dream became clearer and clearer, and he got closer and closer to me ……

  Last night, after chanting insanely for a long time, he suddenly turned his head to look at me and told me to kneel down in a pool of blood, press my head with the palm of that blood-covered hand, and kowtow to the ground with all my might, kneeling down with him to worship that red moon.”

  After saying all this, Chen Gou once again took a drag on his cigarette, and the color of fear vaguely appeared in his eyes.

  ”I don t know why I had this dream, but I always feel …… that something bad is going to happen.”

  An Qingyu fell into deep thought.

  Token dream, dead person, pool of blood, red moon, kneeling ……

  It sounded as if this was just an ordinary nightmare, but at this critical point in time, An Qingyu vaguely smelled a hint of something unusual.

  Was this really just a dream?

  An Qingyu subconsciously raised her head and looked towards the azure sky, the sun was hanging high above the clear sky, emitting a thousand rays of light, and the moon on the other side was half-hidden and half-emerged, and could only be seen as a rough outline.

  The sun was shining brightly, the wind was gentle, just as those fishermen said, today was a good day.

  An Qingyu squinted his eyes and gazed at the moon for a long time, his eyebrows unconsciously wrinkled ……

  I don’t know if it was his illusion.

  The surface of that fuzzy moon really seemed to be flushed with a touch of red.

  At the same time, the other side of the coastline.

  Lin Qiye walked alone to the empty and uninhabited seashore, looking at the sea in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

  ”Seven Nights!” A familiar voice came from behind.

  Jia Lan, wearing a dark blue hanbok, trotted all the way to Lin Qiye’s side, those bright eyes blinking, looking at him with some concern.

  ”Jia Lan? Why are you here?” Lin Qiye asked in surprise.

  ”I …… I’m a little worried about you.”

  ”Worried about me?”

  ”I feel that you were a bit off emotionally just now.” Jia Lan hesitated for a moment, but still said truthfully, “Normally you never get angry, even if it was just to persuade a fight, your words were a bit too aggressive, and your eyes …… I’ve never seen you like this.

  It’s not just you, Fatty and Qingyu, their emotions are also very off!”

  Jia Lan looked at Lin Qiye seriously, the worry in his eyes almost overflowing.

  Lin Qiye was stunned for a moment, recalling what An Qingyu had just said to him, his expression heaved.

  Jia Lan was right, the emotions of him, Baili Chubby, and An Qingyu were indeed very off just now.

  Although Baili Fatty has a delicate mind and is very worried about [Mask], but it is not so bad that he argued with An Qingyu, and his words have even reached the point of irrationality, by virtue of his emotional intelligence, it is impossible to do this kind of thing right……

  There is also An Qingyu, double quotient are extremely high, he should not be unable to see that Baili Chubby is just seeking psychological comfort, but still aggressive, refused to back down half a step.

  As for himself, when he saw the two arguing, the anger in his heart was inexplicably high.

  This was not the normal behavior they should have.

  At this moment, Lin Qiye again associated it with the insect and ant corpses all over the ground, as well as the birds of prey killing each other, as if he realized something, his brows furrowed tightly, ”You’re right …… something did go wrong with our emotions.

  Perhaps, this is related to what Qingyu said, the reason why the closed loop appeared.”

  ”The reason for the closed loop appearing, is the loss of emotional control?”

  ”That’s not certain, we can only say that the two might be related.” Lin Qiye calmly analyzed, “If there really is some sort of power in this fishing village that can affect emotions and cause people to fall into a state of irritability, irritability, and descending intelligence, then it must be getting stronger as time passes.

  Bugs, ants, bats, rats, birds of prey …… Now, it has even been able to affect our emotions, and if it continues like this, sooner or later, human sanity will also fall, and like those bugs, ants, and birds of prey, will go into a state of self destruction.”

  ”Are you saying that in the end, we will also start killing each other?” Jia Lan’s face was ugly to the extreme, “What should we do then?”

  Lin Qiye shook his head, “I don’t know, the information we have now is too little, we don’t even know where this power to influence emotions comes from …… let alone stop it. The only way we have now is to find a way to break the closed loop of time and leave this place.

  Otherwise, whether it’s a temporal obliteration after the closed loop ends, or a self-inflicted killing after the emotions go out of control, it will push us to the end of everything.”

  Now, Lin Qiye suddenly felt that he had made a wise decision by having his team members spread out to look for clues.

  After spreading out, even if they were severely emotionally out of control, as long as there were no people around and no conflicts between each other arose, they wouldn’t start killing each other ……

  Right at this moment, Lin Qiye looked like he thought of something and turned his head to look at Jia Lan, his expression unprecedentedly serious and earnest.

  ”Jia Lan.”

  ”What, what’s wrong?”

  ”You’re an exception.” Lin Qiye’s eyes brightened slightly, “Your [Immortality] is able to keep itself unaffected by any external factors, and the power that affects emotions here is ineffective against you, which means that …… you’re the only one amongst us that can maintain an absolutely lucid existence in any situation.

  If it comes to the final point and all of us fall into a state of insanity, we will have to rely on you ……”

  Calan froze.

  Under Lin Qiye’s solemn and hopeful gaze, Calan suddenly felt the pressure multiply as she took a deep breath:

  ”Okay, what should I do?”

  ”Randomize.”

  ”……”

  ”Who knows, what kind of situation we’ll be in at that time, you just need to act on your own will.” Lin Qiye patted Calan’s shoulder, “I believe in you.”

  Calan: (????????)

  ”I know.” Calan nodded heavily.

  Lin Qiye turned his head and looked at the ocean in front of him and said after a moment of contemplation, “I want to go down and take a look.”

  ”Go to the bottom of the sea?”

  ”Well, I’ve searched all over in the fishing village and found nothing, if that thing that maintains the closed loop of time really exists, it can only be hidden at the bottom of the sea ……”

  ”I’ll accompany you.” Calan didn’t hesitate in the slightest.

  Lin Qiye looked at her and smiled slightly, “Good.”
