Chapter 176 Tentacles

Looking at the tentacles on the cave, Charles hesitated for a while, then reached out to touch it.

"Swipe!" The tentacle came alive in an instant, it protruded from the wall, and dragged Charles towards the wall.

"Come and help!! Quick!!" Charles shouted loudly, but the companions in the distance seemed to have not seen it, and they were still sharing the equipment while talking and laughing.

Charles struggled hard, but couldn't break free. It didn't take long for most of his body to be dragged into the cave.

"Touch!" Charles took off the VR glasses and threw them directly on the opposite wall.

Trembling all over, he looked at the cracked glasses on the ground in shock.

At this moment, his body shook suddenly, and the tentacle painting on the wall suddenly moved.

"No, something is wrong, I don't like this, go away!" Charles closed his eyes and covered his head in pain.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to the cozy bedroom.

The younger sister on the sofa is half lying down, watching TV while playing with her mobile phone.

"Are you watching TV or playing with your mobile phone?" Charles sat down on the sofa, picked up the remote control and switched channels.

The familiar scene made Charles' heart settle down, and he quickly switched the TV, looking for the programs he was interested in.

Soon, a first-person perspective image appeared on the screen. It was the scene of his tenth birthday. The two siblings were wiping cream on each other's faces.

The younger sister next to her looked away from the phone and turned to the TV.

Charles was half lying on the sofa, quietly looking at the picture above.

But looking at it, Charles found that there seemed to be some tentacles constantly twisting in the corners of the picture.

Charles was a little annoyed, he took the remote control and pressed it again.

"What channel should I switch to? Wasn't the show just now pretty good?" My sister cast her eyes on the phone again.

With the rapid switching of various pictures on the screen, the sound in the stereo is also constantly switching.

"Welcome everyone to the noon thirty—"

"Sir, about this—"

"Mom, I want to put this thing—"

"spring--"

As the program cut faster and faster, the sound became more and more noisy, eventually forming a section of harsh noise. (High... hurry up... come...)

Throwing away the remote control in his hand, the extremely irritable Charles turned and walked towards the balcony.

A series of modern high-rise buildings appeared in front of him, and the scenery outside the window was very good. Looking at the beautiful scenery, Charles felt a little less restless.

However, at this moment, a tentacle grows from the blurry roof in the distance, and it is creeping towards this side.

"What's going on! Where did these things come from?" Charles became tense, and he felt something happened.

Gao Suling in the room heard her brother's shout and came out with her mobile phone. "Brother, what's the matter?"

Charles, who was covering his head, was about to answer, but was horrified to see a tentacle with the same shape growing out of his sister's face.

"No, no, it shouldn't be like this." Charles rushed over and pulled the tentacles off her face forcefully.

But this kind of action was completely useless, the tentacles pulled more and more, and finally the tentacles swelled to the point that they completely wrapped Gao Suling and distorted into a wriggling mass of flesh and blood.

Charles, whose eyes were full of fear, held the lump of flesh and blood, shaking it constantly. "It shouldn't be like this!! Change me back quickly!! Hurry up!"

But the reality has not found any changes, everything around is finding changes, all kinds of electrical appliances and furniture around are like dead corpses, constantly decomposing.

The previous peace completely disappeared, and everything around became a hell on earth.

At this time, Charles felt a sharp stabbing pain in his head, as if someone had stuck a stick into his brain and kept stirring it.

"Ahhh!!" He covered his head and roared loudly.

"Gao Zhi...quick...wake up..."

"Gao Zhiming, wake up quickly!"

As the familiar voice became more and more clear in his ears, his head hurt more and more.

"Go away, go away!! Leave me alone!!" Charles hugged his head tightly with both hands and curled up like a baby.

Everything around him instantly shattered like glass, and endless black waves quickly rolled around him.

Just in this world, a pair of soft palms embraced Charles, humming softly.

This is the song he remembers deepest, the lullaby he had long forgotten and heard when he was still a baby.

Charles slowly opened his eyes, and he saw Anna's delicate face.

He opened his hands towards her, and Anna leaned over with a light smile, and the two of them leaned tightly together.

Charles exerted strength with both hands, and hugged Anna tightly, as if he wanted to push her into his body.

"Okay, okay, it's all over..." Anna stroked Charles' back with one hand, her tone seemed to be coaxing a crying baby.

At this moment, the surrounding seawater is still at this moment, hovering there like a transparent sculpture made of glass.

After a long time, Anna stroked Charles' hair with her palm, and put her mouth next to his ear and whispered softly: "Gao Zhiming, you should really wake up, you must know that everything here is fake of."

"..." Charles opened his eyes, which were sometimes excited and sometimes confused.

"Your situation is very complicated. I can't help you. I have already worked hard since I came here. To solve this problem, we must work together. Hurry up, I hate men who run away."

Looking at the chaotic surroundings, all kinds of painful memories emerged in his mind, and at this moment he came to a complete clarity.

Charles froze in place and did not move. He lowered his head and buried it in Anna's arms.

Anna straightened his head and looked at him solemnly, "Gao Zhiming, look at me, do you really want to stay here forever?"

Charles had a bitter smile on his face, and opened his mouth with difficulty, "It may not be impossible, at least there is everything here..."

The surrounding environment began to change rapidly, and the indoor environment that had just collapsed quickly recovered. Gao Suling knelt on the sofa, looking curiously at the two talking.

"But everything here is fake."

"What is true and what is false, does it matter? You are also false."

A letter appeared in Anna's hands, and she slapped the piece of paper on Charles' chest with some excitement.

"You wrote this. How did you tell me? Where did the original Captain Charles go?"

There was a trace of struggle in Charles' eyes, and the surrounding environment was sometimes calm and sometimes crazy as he thought.

He knelt on the ground clutching his head with a splitting headache in pain, "Why should I go back to that desperate world?? Maybe there is no surface at all outside, maybe the outside is not our world at all."

Anna squatted down, looked at him quietly, and said softly, "It doesn't matter if it's the earth or not, but at least you still have me."
