The Asylum of All Worlds

Chapter 393 Atonement
That strange glove is made of pitch-black leather, and at the tip of each finger, there is an extremely long blade, like five shining scalpels
Of course Ziliang knew this pair of gloves. It belonged to [Freddie Krueger], the fictional character. These gloves have almost become a kind of symbol of him.

Ziliang raised his head, and saw the face that he saw in the phantom as expected, the hideous skin was scorched by the flames and fell off, exposing the bright red flesh and blood inside, and the scabbed blood vessels were clearly exposed.

That face is enough to be called a nightmare... and his red and blue shirt and top hat, everywhere revealed a strange feeling of horror and absurdity.

But... Ziliang cares more about... his eyes.

Those were a pair of extremely calm eyes, quiet and silent, as if they had nothing to do with the pair of cruel eyes in the phantom.It is also incompatible with his image.Anyway, just like that, 【Freddie Kruger】appeared in front of Ziliang, without any sign, and no one saw how he appeared.

A moment of trance...

Everything in front of Ziliang began to spin until it disappeared.Except that Freddy's eyes were still looking firmly at him.

Immediately after
It was a dusty smell.

Ziliang woke up suddenly.

He found himself standing in a bedroom.

There was no light on in this bedroom, and it was pitch black, with only faint moonlight coming in from the window.The moonlight was attached to a set of pink tables and chairs. Next to the tables and chairs was a wardrobe that was close to the wall. Although it was old, Ziliang could confirm that it was a girl's bedroom.

At this moment, right in front of him is a single bed, a very beautiful girl is lying on the bed quietly. She is asleep, covered with a lovely quilt. This girl is none other than Ai Li. The sharp ax in Sier Ziliang's hand was hovering over her head. If it hadn't been held by Freddy, the girl would have been decapitated at this moment.

Ziliang was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, he finally came out of the trance completely.

"Are you Freddy?" he asked, looking at the terrifying face in front of him.

"You can call me that." Freddy replied, his voice was indeed hoarse, but there was no killing intent.

Ziliang smiled: "So, am I in a dream now?"

"That depends on how you understand the dream." Freddy let go of his hand: "If you mean the town named Pringwood in Alice's consciousness, then the answer is no! You are not in In the dream, on the contrary, you are really waking up now."

Ziliang frowned: "What do you mean?"

"The small town of Prynwood was destroyed by a fire 35 years ago."

As he spoke, Freddy walked to the window and pushed it open. Through the moonlight, Ziliang finally saw the scene outside. It was a desolate street, and the buildings on both sides showed the wreckage of the fire. As far as the eye can see, there is no trace of light or human smoke, only weeds and dust everywhere
"I think... you can explain to me what kind of story this is... right?"

"Okay," Freddy said, "It's actually quite simple. Thirty-five years ago, in this bedroom, on this bed, a virtuous mayor did something to a little girl that you can imaginable things."

Ziliang nodded: "Oh? So, that fabricated story is true? You really exist? Moreover, you really killed the mayor and burned the mayor for this little girl, that is, Alice. This house?"

Freddy was silent for a while, then shook his head: "No, you're only half right, the first half. I did witness what the mayor did, and I was in the shadow under that tree at the time." Freddy pointed to a carbonized bare tree trunk outside the window: "I looked at the reflection in the bedroom printed on the curtains, and I knew what was going on here. But, I didn't do anything."

"What?" Ziliang froze for a moment.

"I know, this is not the same as what is told in the story." Freddy said, his tone clearly revealed a kind of decline and self-blame that has not dissipated for decades: "Reality is always crueler than stories. Some, that brave child, didn’t exist at all. At that time, I was afraid, although I knew I should rush up, as long as I did that, I might save that girl, although I made up a series of things I rushed up to in my mind The picture, but, after all, I just looked at it like that, but my body was filled with lead... like a waste."

".and then?"

"Hehe, then?" Freddy suddenly smiled miserably: "Then, everything happened, there was no heroic boy coming out of the window, no novice police officer passing by who did what was right, nothing, the reflection on the curtain, just Then it continued but fortunately, the ending in the story was staged, the mayor died, he died at midnight, the person who killed him was Alice, and then a big fire burned like this, and it was Alice who set it off of."

"Do you know why this place is called Elm Street? Because there are elm trees everywhere here. It was a summer, and the trees grew extremely lush. The flames rushed to the street and ignited one tree, and then...the second tree, the third trees, and then the whole street was on fire!"

When Freddy said this, he suddenly laughed hysterically, and he opened his hands: "It was a big fire, so big that it engulfed the entire town, and no one was spared, except me and her."

Ziliang looked at Alice, then at Freddy: "You two?"

"Yes, Alice is not an ordinary girl, she has a kind of magical power. Of course, I didn't know this at the time, and I didn't understand why Alice stood in the sea of ​​fire, but nothing happened. I just thought, yes God couldn't bear to let this girl go through any more pain, so she survived and I survived... because of punishment."

"After the fire, Alice couldn't bear the torment of memories, she chose self-hypnosis, in a dream, to continue her life, and all these years, I have been guarding her, I rebuilt this burned house It has become the original appearance, so that she can sleep here peacefully."

At this moment, Ziliang's compass finally vibrated.

He opened it, and the incomplete information finally changed a bit.
