Community Traversal: I Have a Daily Rescue Kit

Chapter 66 The Grand Finale

Chapter 67 The Grand Finale

The sound was so faint that it was almost imperceptible unless one was fully focused.

But just now, Lin Yu and Su Chen were both engrossed in their work.

How much?

With his expression softening slightly, Su Chen looked warily at the woman pushing the cart.

She wore a dark red hood riddled with holes, and her clothes were pitifully thin, barely covering her body. The cart was piled high with red and white candles, some of which were solidified fat and yellowish-white, while others were yellowish-white with a hint of eerie blood.

Lin Yu looked at Su Chen's bold behavior with confusion at first, and then gave him a wary look.

"He's hiding some weird stuff from me again..."

Lin Yu groaned helplessly in her heart, wanting to say something, but seeing the pale face of the hooded woman, she remained silent.

Under normal circumstances, she would never rashly approach such a creature.

The woman's outstretched hand was thin and bony, with protruding knuckles that felt like thorns, deeply piercing Lin Yu's heart. She saw a few drops of wax from a red candle, as thick as a thumb, seep onto the cart and hiss, creating a hole.

This exaggerated scene made Lin Yu's eyes tremble. Su Chen, who was standing beside her, also saw it but remained silent. Instead, he asked the woman how much the candles cost.

Lin Yu wouldn't believe it at all if there wasn't some inside story!

"I must ask him more questions about what happened later!"

Lin Yu gritted her teeth and pretended she hadn't seen what had just happened, but the next moment, she couldn't hold back anymore.

The wax dripped directly onto the woman's outstretched hand, but she remained silent, not even uttering a sound. After a moment, Su Chen and Lin Yu purchased two red candles from her.

One stick can last for 10 minutes. During those 10 minutes, strange events and creatures in the town will temporarily stay away from her and Su Chen.

"We used up some of your food. Do you have enough left?"

Lin Yu felt somewhat guilty.

The woman wouldn't accept anything other than food, and there was nothing the woman could do to help.

Since encountering the Misty Merchant in the Fog, Su Chen has already used a lot of food to exchange for those items, and now Lin Yu is worried that he won't have enough food later.

"It's alright, just keep an eye on that side first."

Su Chen frowned. Not far away, a person wearing a huge hat was walking towards them.

"Let's hide first."

The man's hat was ridiculously tall, even taller than the magician's hats he had seen before, making it look exceptionally absurd and comical.

However, both of them had serious expressions and dared not make any unnecessary movements.

Hiding behind the house, Su Chen cautiously watched the man look around suspiciously in the light. As if he had noticed where Su Chen and Lin Yu were hiding, he ran quickly toward them, wearing a huge hat on his head.

"Light that candle!"

Su Chen's face darkened.

As a crimson flame suddenly leaped up, the house that Su Chen and Lin Yu had been leaning against vanished, and time seemed to slow down and drag on as the flame ignited.

Time and space, the light in Candletear Town was like starlight in the night sky, fading away little by little, until it was completely extinguished.

"broken."

A deep voice rang out, and Su Chen felt the world around him spin around him, as if everything was being turned upside down.

The house he had seen earlier, its walls covered in blood and flesh, the silent chimes of the bells in the distant square—everything seemed to come alive.

The once brightly lit street suddenly turned dark.

Gripping the candle tightly, Su Chen felt that Lin Yu's face had become much paler. The faint light of the red candle seemed as fragile and precarious as a strange plant at the foot of a cliff.

Gripping the triangular military dagger tightly, Su Chen tried his best to activate the Demon Hunter's primal energy, but nothing changed around him.

Gradually, he understood everything.

The surrounding scenery changed rapidly, and memories of the past and future flashed before his and Lin Yu's eyes like a reversed screen.

He saw him and Lin Yu darting through the town of Candle Tears, barely managing to escape from a man-eating hut after exhausting their last bit of energy. He saw Lin Yu's figure suddenly vanish after touching a bright candle. He saw the woman wielding the halberd point it at the sky, and then several strange bell sounds shattered the halberd in her hand. Her shattered forearm was covered in fragments of bone and flesh, flying everywhere.

A long time has passed.

Gradually, Su Chen saw himself back in Happiness Community, back in his home.

However, the prosperous scene in that home was completely different from his previous simplicity.

A clean-lined motorcycle, radiating a faint white light, hovered in mid-air. As a strong figure jumped onto the motorcycle, the surrounding scenery seemed to constantly shift.

Su Chen found himself in an unknown place, and gently took out a small knife that emitted a pale purple light from a desolate place filled with blood, bones and flesh.

Red blood gushed from his wrist, mixed with a faint golden light. After the blood dripped into empty space, a dry well of white bones suddenly appeared.

The well was surrounded by countless tiny bones he couldn't make out. His skull was inexplicably smashed, and as blood dripped from his wrist, a figure appeared behind him.

"That's... Lin Yu?"

Su Chen stood there, stunned, staring at the woman standing behind him in his memory, her arms gleaming with a cold metallic light, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Should we restart it?"

Lin Yu calmly spoke, her voice brimming with exhaustion, but Su Chen remained silent, letting the blood drip from his wrist.

moment.

As the well of bones filled with his blood, the scene before Su Chen's eyes gradually became viscous. In the viscous scene, he saw himself and Lin Yu walk through several strange ruins, saw the Happiness Community lose nearly half of its population due to the fourth boss's attack, saw Lin Yu lose an arm in this battle, and saw the young woman and a mysterious woman wearing a mask unleash the power they had previously hidden.

"Is this the situation in the near future?"

Gradually, Su Chen also became somewhat confused about the current situation.

The scene before him was just like what had actually happened; he could hardly see anything wrong with it.

Finally, as the scene before him came to a close, he saw countless timelines and countless memories of Su Chen, all of whom, upon seeing himself, were simultaneously looking in one direction.

That was the first time Su Chen stepped into this world, the first time he realized that the outside world had changed.

He saw Jiahao casually utter a few strange words and then rush straight out of the fog. He saw a figure from his memory suddenly move behind the crooked tree.

He extended a finger and gently touched the back of his image in the picture.

In the video, Su Chen ran straight into the fog and lost contact with the others.

He saw Lin Yu frowning, taking out a Miao knife and demanding to know who had done it.

However, she was destined not to get the answer she wanted.

"It really was me..."

'

A complex look flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

He got it.

He knew that at some point in time, whether in the past or the future, he was being given a new direction, so he stopped resisting.

Let the scene in front of you keep changing.

Power, equipment, honor—everything came as naturally and easily as breathing. He saw the people in the community erect a statue for him, and many regarded him as the true savior. He saw the young woman and Lin Yu whispering sweet nothings to each other and trying to please him. Everything seemed like a tiny grain of sand in the long river of time.

Everything around him was wondrous: his life, his experiences, and his ability to see himself change in the future.

Everything was so strange and dreamlike, as if he were just a tiny fragment of this endless memory.

He gradually let go, allowing himself to merge into a string of endless memories, and then his eyes shone like red gold.

Tick-tock—

Tick-tock—

A burning pain shot through his wrist. Su Chen watched as the dry well of white bones in front of him began to glow again, while Lin Yu beside him also expressed her doubts at the same time.

In an instant, he understood.

Without further hesitation, Su Chen jumped into the dry well, ready to embrace his new beginning.
