Dream Guide - #443 - Chapter 443 Knock it off

Petru rushed into the altar and saw Mrs. Larry lying on the ground, looking at something unknown.

He carefully avoided the suspended stones, ran to Madam, took off his clothes from his waist, wrapped them around Madam Larry, and shouted: “Madam, we can go.”

Mrs. Larry remained unmoved, as if she had completely forgotten her situation, and said without looking back:

“Petru, I seem to have found some secrets about this place. This altar is not as simple as we imagined. It may be the product of a civilization we have never known. I need a little time to decipher the words and patterns here. .Can you help me?”

Petru said in a hurry: “Madam, we are about to hit the moon! The flood is coming, please follow me quickly!”

“If so, where can we go?” Mrs. Larry was still lying there, like a child focused on playing games, not caring at all about the anxiety when adults called her to eat.

Petru was stunned, yes, where can we go? If Aoki and the others cannot prevent this disaster from happening, where can they hide on such a small island?

He looked up at the huge moon in the sky and the floating stones under the moon, and thought to himself that if he was going to die, this altar would be a good burial ground. He remembered that when they first came down carrying Mrs. Larry on their backs, they had prepared for the worst possible outcome and would die here. He spent half his life, except for the short and beautiful time with Lavier, most of the time he was on the run, fighting against death. If I could die with this respectable lady, such a life ending would be considered a good one.

The rumbling sound from the distance became louder and louder, the earth began to tremble, and the boulder above the head was shaking, as if it would fall at any time.

Some extremely strong mental disturbances struck, making Petru’s consciousness suddenly feel like he was falling from a height of ten thousand feet. He shook his head, came to his senses, and shouted:

“Madam, my companions are still up there. We have to go and join them. There will be a way! We can’t wait to die here!”

Mrs. Larry stood up, somewhat unsteadily. Petru knew that the mental shock just now had also affected her, and he quickly supported her.

Mrs. Larry held her forehead and said, “Oh, my God! What’s wrong with me?”

“It’s okay, ma’am, you’re going to be okay!” Petru said, helping her get dressed.

After getting dressed, he repeated his old trick, picked up Mrs. Larry, put it on his shoulders, and planned to run to the altar.

Mrs. Larry was caught off guard and was hugged by him, her waist hung on Petru’s shoulders, her head lowered, just in time to see the hourglass-shaped symbol mark on the ground. When she was looking at it just now, she was lying down, so the light above was blocked by her, and the light shone on her back. Now she stepped aside, and the light shone on the ground.

She patted Petru on the back hard: “Petru! Put me down quickly! Petru! I seem to have discovered something!”

Petru felt the real anxiety from Mrs. Larry’s voice, so he stopped, put her down and said, “Madam, we don’t have much time!”

Mrs. Larry took two steps and ran to the symbol, looking up. The moonlight filtered in from between the pumice stones in the sky. In addition to sparsely imprinting light spots on the ground that looked like text symbols, there was also a straight beam of light shooting down from the middle of the pumice stone formation. This beam of light must have been blocked by her own body just now, so she didn’t see the circular light spot on the ground.

There is also a black shadow in the center of the circular light spot. In this black shadow is the hourglass symbol composed of two triangles.

Mrs. Larry looked down at the spots and shadows, and looked up at the sky.

Petru was extremely anxious. He didn’t know what was going on outside, but he could feel the terrifying pressure that was destroying the world increasing. He knew that Aoki was helping the dead old man maintain the spatial stability here, hoping for a miracle to happen. Although he doesn’t understand why a real space requires mental power to maintain like a dream, and he doesn’t understand what Klein bottles, Roche limits, or high-dimensional space are, there is one thing he understands, and he doesn’t want to think about it anymore. Good idea, or if no miracle happens, this place will be torn apart by the gravity of that weird thing in the sky.

Yes, he would rather call that thing in the sky a strange thing than the moon. He once went to the moon with Lavier on the banks of the Tiber River. How beautiful the moon was!

Who says something covered in craters must be the moon? If they are fine on the earth and suddenly crash into the moon, why not crash into some other planet?

“Petru!” Mrs. Larry suddenly pointed to the sky and said, “Can you knock that thing off for me?”

Petru was shocked. He thought the lady asked him to knock out the “moon”.

“Madam, I have not been exposed to gamma rays, and my skin does not glow green.” He looked at the moon and said, “And this thing, even if Dr. Banner comes, may not be able to explode.”

Mrs. Larry knew that he had misunderstood and explained: “I don’t want you to knock down the moon, I want you to knock down the stone that blocks the moonlight.”

Only then did Petru realize that Mrs. Larry’s finger was pointing to a stone in the center of the stone formation above her head. This stone is different. It should be called a stone pillar. It is long and thin, standing in mid-air like a person. Its position was exactly within the beam of light shining down from the sky, forming a black shadow in the center of the light spot on the ground.

“That’s it!”

Petru raised his head and shot a few times, but the bullets bounced off the stones. Not only did they not affect the stone pillars, they sputtered and flew around, almost injuring themselves.

He regretted throwing away the sniper rifle for convenience, otherwise he would have been able to break the stone pillar.

He put down the gun, took out the grenade, gestured, pulled Mrs. Larry far away, then pulled the grenade safety, counted a few times in his mind, calculated the time, and threw it out.

The grenade flew through the cracks in the rocks, hit the stone pillar, and exploded. The stone pillar was not blown to pieces as expected, but floated to the side and hit other rocks.

The light beam was no longer blocked, and the black shadow on the ground disappeared.

Mrs. Larry rushed over, ignoring the debris from the grenade explosion that was still falling. She saw that the symbol was much clearer than before under the light, and it seemed to be reflecting light.

She squatted down and gently touched the hard lines of the symbol with her hand. Suddenly, his eyes were in a trance, and the two triangles of the symbol were turned upside down and changed positions. She wasn’t sure if she saw it wrong, because the symbol was symmetrical, and it was still the same symbol when turned upside down.

“Madam! Be careful!” Petru suddenly shouted and rushed over, picking her up from the ground.

A huge stone fell from the air and hit the place where the lady was squatting just now.

I don’t know if it was a chain reaction caused by the stone pillars pushed away by the grenade explosion hitting other stones, or for some other reason. The stone array in the air suddenly went into chaos and kept hitting each other. Then, they fell one after another.

Petru resisted Mrs. Larry, sweating profusely, jumping between falling boulders.

Mrs. Larry’s eyes were still fixed on the symbols on the ground. She seemed to see the halo of light flowing in the two triangles, flowing from one triangle to the other.

Then, a layer of white mist appeared on the ground, just like the artificial fog on the stage, and it quickly covered the totem patterns and symbols on the ground.

The rocks above the head were still falling, like black meteor showers, hitting the ground with a roaring sound. Petru felt like he was on a battlefield filled with artillery fire, but his sight was blocked by the rising fog.
