593 The Alien Space in the Mirror
When Xiaomi Homura finally arrived at her senior's apartment, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening, nearly half an hour later than the original time. On the way, Tomoe Asami and Madoka both called her and asked her where she was. It's not like something happened.
Xiao Meiyan was afraid that the two of them would worry, so she didn't tell the truth.
At this time, Xiao Meiyan looked up at the apartment building in front of her and breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't know what the thing that attacked her just now was, or whether it would come back. What she was most worried about was that the thing followed her to Sister Asami's dormitory, but now it seemed that the atmosphere in the apartment building had not changed. There should be no problem.
So Xiaomi Homura took a deep breath, took the elevator, and headed to Tomoe Mami's floor.
Ding dong!
As the doorbell rang, Madoka, who was chatting with Tomoe Asami in the room, immediately ran over and opened the door, "Homura, you're finally here. Just now... Hey, what's wrong with your face?"
"It's nothing, let's talk about it after we go in."
"good."
When she entered the room, Tomoe Asami had already made her hot black tea. Xiaomi Homura was not polite and drank half the cup directly. Maybe it was because she drank it too fast and the heat rushed to her head, making her head feel a little dizzy.
Tomoe Asami was a little worried about her and asked: "Xiaoyan, what happened just now? When you called me before, I felt that your mood was a little wrong. Moreover, it only takes at most 10 minutes to get from your home to here. Half an hour... did you encounter anything on the road?"
Although Tomoe Mami is strong on the outside and weak on the inside, she has a glassy heart, but because of this, she is better at observing words and emotions, and some of Akatsuki Homura's abnormal behaviors from the past to the present made her clearly feel that something was wrong.
Hearing what she said, Madoka was also a little worried and sat down next to Xiao Meiyan, "Xiaoyan..."
Shaking her head, Xiao Meiyan forced a smile on her face, "Don't worry, I'm fine, but I did encounter some strange things on the way here..."
Later, Xiao Meiyan revealed that she had encountered a shadow enemy.
"Invisible enemies in the dark?" Tomoe Mami and Madoka looked at each other. They had watched the animation of "Madoka Magica" and had personally experienced Akatsuki Homura's ability. Although she was not very good at fighting, she could stop time. The ability is really incomprehensible, but now, an invisible black shadow can forcefully tear apart the time when Xiao Meiyan stopped, which makes the two people a little unbelievable.
What exactly is Sombra?
What does it have to do with the witch?
What is its purpose?
In an instant, countless questions popped up in their minds, causing waves of uneasiness.
"Could it be that you brought it from other worlds?" Tomoe Mami asked.
"Impossible." Xiao Meiyan immediately shook her head, "Although group members can bring outsiders with them when they go to another world, as long as they are living creatures, there will be pendants displayed, and I did not bring the pendant with me when I came back. The chat room should There's no way this kind of bug could happen, and...everyone in Gensokyo is a good person, so there's no need to scare me, right?"
At the end, Xiao Meiyan was also a little unsure. The person who helped her the most in the chat room was Gu Mingjijue, and Gumingjijue was born in Gensokyo, so she has always had a good impression of Gensokyo. If someone in Gensokyo is wanted She, she didn't believe it, but...if it was just to scare her, then it might not be impossible.
The reason why she had such an idea was because the retreat of the black shadow in the end was too inconsistent.
She knew that after integrating into the chat room, her mobile phone had become a very powerful prop that could withstand almost all attacks, but this was only reflected in the defense level. As for the attack... a monster that could tear apart time was... If you take a shot of your cell phone and it falls down, if you use your cell phone to fight the witch, wouldn't it mean that you will die if you take a shot of it?
But in fact, it's not like she hasn't experimented before. She really used her mobile phone as a weapon to attack, and she couldn't even break a table.
Therefore, if someone from Gensokyo secretly followed her to this world, deliberately played a prank on her, and backed away at the last moment, that would make sense.
But in this case, her phone will display the number of pendants.
Unless, not a living person?
"That's right!" Thinking of this, Xiao Meiyan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she stretched out her hand, holding a brilliant ball of light.
"What is this?" The two people next to them opened their eyes curiously. Madoka also stretched out her hand to touch the light ball, but retracted before touching it.
"This is Guangyu, but it is a tool to fulfill wishes. It is what I said before, the key to breaking the situation."
After learning the origin and function of Koudama, Tomoe Mami and Akatsuki Homura were very surprised, but instinctively felt a little uneasy, because these so-called magical girls were seduced by Kyubey with wishes, and fell into the abyss step by step until In the point of no return, now there is another tool to fulfill the wish, and the mood is inevitably a bit complicated.
Of course, they believed in Xiao Meiyan and the chat room that let them know the truth. They did not have any rejection of Guangyu, but...
"According to Miss Yakumo Murasaki, Koudama has a kind soul, so it shouldn't play pranks on you, right?" Madoka said.
"Probably not, but apart from it, I really don't have anything on me..."
boom!
Halfway through Xiao Meiyan's words, a loud noise suddenly came from the surroundings, as if something was hitting the apartment, and the whole room trembled.
The three of them stood up instinctively, and Tomoe Mami immediately completed the transformation into a magical girl. She said seriously, "Someone is hitting the barrier I set up. If the barrier is broken, everyone in this apartment may be attacked. Xiao Madoka, let’s go to meet the enemy together, Xiaoyan, your magic power hasn’t been restored yet, so stay here for now.”
Xiao Meiyan opened her mouth to say something, but finally nodded.
She no longer has the strength to fight, and going out will only hinder her.
So, when Tomoe Asami and Madoka went out to fight, Xiaomi Homura could only stay in the room and wait patiently. But even though she was patient, she was not at all calm in her heart. Listening to the sound of fighting outside, she would pick up her phone from time to time. Tossing and turning.
It was not until five minutes later that the movement outside gradually stopped, and Tomoe Mami and Madoka pushed the door open. Seeing that both of them were intact, Xiaomi Homura finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "What happened?"
Tomoe Asami and Madoka looked at her, both of them had strange expressions.
"Homura, do you think there are ghosts in this world?"
"Ghost?" Hearing Tomoe Mami's question, Xiao Meiyan was stunned. She knew that there were actually ghosts in the world, such as Gensokyo, which could be found everywhere, but in this world of her own... she had never heard of it, at most. Missing body.
"Could it be that it was a ghost that attacked the barrier just now?"
Tomoe Mami shook her head, "I'm not sure if it's a ghost or not. It's just that it has no entity and can only barely see the humanoid posture. General physical attacks are completely useless against it... How should I put it? It even feels like a radio wave. ?”
"Radio waves?"
Akatsuki Homura blinked in confusion, Tomoe Mami and Madoka didn't explain anymore, because they really didn't know how to explain.
The three of them were silent for a while. Just when Xiao Meiyan suggested asking someone in the chat room, a strange noise suddenly came from the bathroom next to them.
The expressions of the three people suddenly changed and they became nervous.
"I'll do it." Tomoe Asami stopped Madoka who wanted to enter the bathroom to check. This is her home, and she is everyone's senior sister. If the enemy really breaks through the barrier and enters the house, then the first one People entering the bathroom are in great danger. As a senior, I should be the first to rush.
Afterwards, Asami Tomoe discussed with the two of them for a few more words and walked cautiously towards the bathroom.
The bathroom was very quiet. Apart from the sound just now, there was no other noise. Tomoe Asami pushed the door open a crack and pressed the light switch next to it. She still didn't feel any movement inside. Then she pushed the door open completely. Open it and look around, but there is no dark shadow as expected.
However, when she turned around and saw the mirror on the wall, she froze.
"Madoka, Homura, come here and take a look."
This sentence meant that there was no danger. The two immediately followed Tomoe Mami's gaze into the bathroom and were stunned. They saw that the mirror above the sink suddenly turned into a whirlpool.
"What is this?"
"have no idea."
"There's no dangerous smell."
"Let me check first."
Asami Tomoe raised her right hand, and the yellow ribbon wrapped around her arm slipped into the vortex like a living thing.
Tomoe Mami's main weapon is a flintlock, but she is actually best at binding magic. Her ribbon is like a part of her body, which can be controlled freely. Not only can it be transformed into various shapes, but its capacity is also very large. It's easy to tie up a building.
But at this moment, her ribbon could not touch the limit of the vortex, as if the opposite side of the vortex was also an infinite space.
After a moment, Tomoe Asami turned her head and said, "I feel like I can go inside."
"In the whirlpool?" Xiao Yuan's eyes lit up, "Is there a different space on the other side?"
If they had come into contact with the chat room, the term "different space" was still a bit unfamiliar to them, but now that there are even different worlds, a mere different space is not so strange.
"Yeah." Tomoe Asami nodded, and then said something that surprised both of them, "I want to go inside and have a look."
"Asami-san?"
The two looked at her in surprise. After watching the animation of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", they already knew that this senior sister was not as mature and strong as her appearance. Her heart was lonely and fragile than many, and her spirit was It is on the verge of collapse, and no one knows what dangers there are in the alien space opposite the vortex. If you enter easily, you may not even be able to come back.
"Isn't this good? Why don't I ask the chat room first." Xiao Meiyan said.
However, Tomoe Asami shook her head.
Madoka was puzzled: "Ms. Asami, don't you...don't believe in chat rooms?"
"How could it be?" Tomoe Mami smiled, "Of course I believe in the chat room. After all, Xiaoyan is also a member of the chat room, but they have helped us a lot. We need their help, but after all, this is our own destiny. If we want to get rid of that sad ending, we can't just rely on external abilities, we must also work hard ourselves."
"Besides, if there is such a whirlpool, the chat room should not have a similar experience, right?"
Xiao Meiyan thought for a moment and then nodded. Indeed, she had never heard of it from anyone.
"That's okay. Even if we notify the chat room and send people over there, someone still has to go into the vortex to investigate, but can we keep bothering them? Let others take risks for us, let others bet for us Life, while we hide in a safe corner and wait for it to be over, I don’t think this is okay.”
Tomoe Mami shook her head, "I didn't know what it was to be strong before, so I could only pretend to be mature, but my heart was full of fear and anxiety. Now I know what kind of fate I will face. In order to reverse my fate, I had to learn how to be really strong, so I got to enter the vortex myself.”
Saying that, Asami looked at Xiaomi Homura, "Xiaoyan, I will enter the whirlpool next to check the situation inside. It may be dangerous there, and it may also spread to the outside. If I don't come back by then, you should leave immediately. here and contact the chat room..."
"Asami-san!" Madoka said before she could finish her words, "I'll go with you."
"No, don't forget that it's not safe outside. Xiaoyan's magic power hasn't recovered yet. If those things from before attack me again when I go in, who will protect her?" Looking at the hesitant expressions of the two of them, , Asami Tomoe pressed their shoulders and said with a smile, "Believe me, I am also your senior sister after all, and... wait for me to come back."
After saying that, Tomoe Asami put away her confident smile, followed the ribbon, and looked at the whirlpool in the mirror.
…
Her consciousness was a little dizzy, and she felt like the world was spinning. After four or five seconds, Bamima's consciousness gradually recovered. She opened her eyes and found that she was standing in a strange place.
It looks like a square, surrounded by square buildings. Outside the square are gray rocks and endless darkness. A series of bubbles are rising from a not far away place, just like... this square Located in the deep sea.
"How could this happen? If I was in the sea, why didn't I feel suffocated?"
Everything in front of her looked like the depths of the sea, but her body did not feel any discomfort because of it. This made Tomoe Mami feel a little strange, and the strangest thing was some green cubes floating in the air.
"Where on earth have I come?"
This place made Tomoe Mami feel indescribably weird. Although she didn't feel any physical discomfort, she just felt a sense of dissonance... as if this place was not a real space at all.
"Forget it, let's ask around first."
Tomoe Asami breathed a sigh of relief, calming herself down and taking care of herself as she came. The purpose of her coming here was to inquire about the situation.
In fact, before coming in, there was one sentence she didn't say.
Her life or death doesn't matter!
Xiao Meiyan can turn back time. Although this is the culprit that makes these magical girls struggle in infinite reincarnation, on the other hand, this can also be used as a trump card. Even if this reincarnation fails, they can still be used in the next one. Continue fighting in one reincarnation, and the information obtained in this reincarnation can make the next reincarnation smoother.
Therefore, as long as Xiaomi Homura's safety is guaranteed, both she and Madoka are expendable.
Although a little cruel.
Of course, if possible, Tomoe Mami doesn't want to die, so it would be best if she can take the information out safely.
So she moved forward cautiously.
She didn't know how long it took, but she finally left the square. There was a narrow curve in front of her, and just as she entered the curve, a sound of fighting suddenly came.
Tomoe Asami's heart moved, and she immediately ran following the sound. Not long after, with the sound of falling, the sound of fighting stopped. She stuck her head out and saw a strange woman standing in the open space not far ahead.
She was wearing a nun's uniform, her face was soft, and her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, giving people a feeling of kindness. She lowered her head, looked at the person sitting in front of her and smiled softly, "Uh-huh, it's over. Ah, I thought you could last longer, you are such a cute child, but don’t worry, even if your mother abandons you, I... huh? "
Before she finished speaking, the woman seemed to feel something and her eyes moved.
The next second, her eyes collided with Tomoe Asami's.
boom! ! !
Almost instantly, Tomoe Asami felt dizzy.
Although the other party was a kind-faced nun, for some reason, when she was stared at by the other party, she seemed to be facing the most terrifying beast, a beast that could swallow everything in the world, and she, It happened to be at the mouth of the beast.
The unprecedented fear made Tomoe Mami break into a cold sweat and almost scream.
Then, she turned around without hesitation and fled as fast as she could.
She knew that if she continued to stay here, she would die.
He will definitely die!
Everything will be swallowed up by that nun!
Tomoe Asami ran forward crazily, with the sounds of chasing and the nun's charming laughter coming from behind.
"Uh-huh..."
Vaguely, she seemed to hear a name.
Kill... or something?
