old dream

Chapter 255 The Return
The car stopped in front of Dallozzo's ancestral house. Nancy had watched the neighborhood countless times, so she was familiar with the area.Ji Lian had got off the car and left more than ten minutes ago, and now there are only Ke Lin and Nancy.

"I'll take care of the rest in about two days, and I'll come pick you up then." Nancy looked at the rearview mirror and said:

"If there is any need until then..."

She wanted to make some basic instructions, but "Colin" who was sitting in the back row didn't seem to hear Nancy's words, but just opened the car door and walked out.Compared with the time in the old factory building, the demeanor has become much more natural.

Nancy's words hung in the air, and she could only sit in the driver's seat and watch his back.She restarted the engine a moment later, silently deciding in her mind to find another time to observe Bond Elvis more closely.

but not now.

Because there is still the matter of the hunting group that hinders her.After nearly ten years of running the principality, her mission has become much more complicated than before.

Amidst the hum of the redstone engine, the car drove away quietly.

"Colin" walked numbly through the narrow flower garden, and stretched out his hand to open the gate of Dallozzo's ancestral house.But the interior of this mansion is already a mess.

All the furniture was pulled down, broken glass was scattered everywhere, and the blood-stained wallpaper was roughly torn off by someone and discarded all over the floor.Something must have happened here last night, but in the face of all this, "Kelin"'s expression was not disturbed, as if he still lacked the most basic understanding and reasoning ability.

"He" just walked straight to his small attic, and climbed onto the bed before taking off his blood-stained and dusty clothes.

Then he slowly curled up his body, buried himself between the pillow and the quilt, rubbed his face against the soft fabric as if very attached, with the remaining breath, he fell asleep peacefully after a long time.

The pitch-black sky remained unchanged, making it difficult to determine the time.During this period, "Colin" woke up a few times, walked out of the door instinctively like an office worker, and ended up taking the tram around, and returned to his house. Fortunately, it was dark and no one noticed the blood on his clothes .

Or he would sit at his desk, fiddling with a sheet of paper full of letters, bewildered.But most of the time, "Colin" just stays in bed.

The Lingsu tide was over, and after more than ten hours, the sky began to turn white quietly, and the chirping of sparrows could be heard from the street. "Colin" was still staring blankly at the ceiling with a dazed expression.

Just then, his little finger twitched inconspicuously.

Then the second, and the third.

It was like a person struggling hard after being pressed by a ghost. First, a few fingers twitched in a limited way, and then the whole arm moved unnaturally.But "Ke Lin"'s eyes were still looking straight up, as if he hadn't noticed anything strange about him at all.

Ten minutes later, even his legs began to move.They pushed the torso with the left arm, moving their body and empty face toward the edge of the bed like a giant spider.

All his limbs were twitching in pain, but his expression was still numb.

"Bangdang."

The sound of something heavy hitting the floor.

Colin fell heavily to the ground, and gasped suddenly.

With the feeling of falling and the pain, he regained the dominance of his body.

But Colin immediately found that his throat and mouth were about to dry out.Because it has been nearly twenty hours without drinking water.

So he didn't care about the pain when the back of his neck hit the floor, he struggled to stand up, leaned on the wall and staggered towards the bathroom, turned on the faucet and replenished the water directly.

Then he fell over the sink, trying to throw up.After a few more minutes of delay, my thoughts began to run sluggishly.

Nancy was wrong.

The mental integration didn't end in a few tens of minutes, it didn't happen at all.

Fractured memories diverged the time of Colin. After 616, one Colin was still in Senal, and the other jumped to Stade in 621 due to amnesia.

In the twenty-odd hours after the cracking ceremony, "Colin" of Senale and the silent Boyd Ives dominated the body successively.It was the "Colin" who talked to Nancy in the old factory building, and then most of the time it was Boyd Elvis, but even sometimes, it was one person who controlled a small half of the body.And he could only watch from the sidelines.

But the one who temporarily won in this interrupted integration is the current self.

But.He looked at his hands, am I really me?Could it be that, as in the past, the impulse from Boyd Elvis has actually mixed into his own thinking?
Senal's "Colin" appears morbid and vulnerable, as his consciousness has long been eroded.Now everything about him has been integrated by himself, and will no longer exist.

But why is it that someone as powerful as Bod Ives failed to swallow himself up?
All Colin could think of was the awakened blood power.

It is named blood, but its essence may be a characteristic from the cultural background.And as a visitor from another world, it is very likely that some kind of incompatibility has occurred between him and Bod Ives, which hinders the integration of the minds of the two.

Although the exact process is unknown, this is the only possible explanation.

But at this moment, Colin could still feel that the pale goddess had not been eliminated. Although there was blood power blocking them, Bod Avis might appear at any time in the future, affecting or even taking over his consciousness.

Instead of thinking further, he forcibly interrupted his thoughts and stopped imagining him to prevent new accidents.

By sorting out the memories from 610-621 in the new calendar, and adding the few words he heard ignorantly during the cracking ceremony, Colin has already understood the truth of the matter with horror.

An organization that calls itself "Dark River" is mainly composed of night people scattered all over the world.Lenz was supported by them back then, but he never escaped their control.

At least until consciousness is cracked.

The failure of mental integration created an opportunity for Colin.

Judging from Nancy's performance, Dark River knows very little about Bod Ives.At the same time, they are sure that Colin's soul has been swallowed up, because there is no luck in the confrontation between mortals and gods, even if they are long-dead gods.

So now, Nancy presumably has identified "Colin" in 621 as Bold Elvis.As an important profile recovered by the Underworld Organization, Boyd Elvis will be taken away from Stade by Nancy in two days.

What's the next step?
Colin looked at the mirror in front of him, and twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing clenched canine teeth.The festering wounds on his body have begun to heal, because with the release of Bode Ives, the ether of the human body will no longer be blocked, and Colin's strength will enter a rapid improvement again.

But he also clearly understands that he is not yet capable of confronting the mysterious Underworld organization.

The accident in the cracking ceremony cast a deep shadow on him, it was a feeling of powerlessness of being under the control of others.Now that he regained his memory, Ke Lin still doesn't have enough information. He doesn't know what kind of power the Underworld Organization will call out if he escapes suddenly.

And the pagan god who still haunts him, what surprises will it bring.

So the best strategy at present is to temporarily let the misunderstanding continue.Playing as the personality of Cinara "Colin", disguise the fact that he still retains consciousness, and look for opportunities to surprise.

Thinking of this, Colin adjusted the details of the expression on his face with his hands facing the mirror.Then, nonchalantly, he turned on the light in the bathroom.

Less than 30 meters outside Da Luozuo's house, Nancy's car was parked there quietly.At this moment, she was sitting in the driver's seat, watching the lit window from a distance.

"No, I think..." She whispered to herself:
"It's hard to say."
