Chapter 778 You Are Not Him

Chen Ze bit his tongue hard, and the sharp pain hit him like lightning, making his mind clearer.

"No, this is all fake, I can't be fooled." He kept telling himself in his heart.

However, the voice of his best friend seemed to come from the distant sky, and it seemed to whisper in his ear, clear and real.

"Chen Ze, come on, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's chat together."

The voice was full of kindness and expectation, just like the call they had made countless times when they got together, with an irresistible magic.

Chen Ze clenched his fists, his nails deeply sunk into the palm of his hand, he seemed to want to use this pain to resist the emotional torrent in his heart.

He tried to calm himself down, took a deep breath, and said with a trembling voice but full of determination: "You are not him, you are just an illusion in my heart."

His words echoed in this illusory space, with a hint of determination.

But the figure did not disappear as he wished, but slowly walked towards him, and every step seemed to step on his heartstrings.

As the distance got closer, Chen Ze could even feel the breath coming from his best friend.

That familiar breath, with the warmth and kindness of the past, almost broke his inner defense.

"Chen Ze, why do you treat me like this? Aren't we best friends? Don't you want to see me so much?"

A trace of grievance and sadness appeared on the face of his best friend, and that expression was like a misunderstood child, which made people feel distressed.

Chen Ze's heart was stabbed, and the good times he had spent with his best friend flashed through his mind like a slideshow.

They laughed together in the sun, cried in the wind and rain, and faced the many difficulties and challenges in life side by side.

Those memories were so precious that he almost couldn't help but believe that everything in front of him was real.

"No, I can't waver."

Chen Ze closed his eyes and tried not to look at the figure, as if he could keep out the illusory temptation as long as he didn't look.

"This is not true... You are gone." Chen Ze whispered in a low voice with a tremor in his voice.

But he clearly had a clairvoyance that could see through all illusions in an instant, but he never used it.

"Chen Ze, open your eyes and look at me. Do you really have the heart to shut me out like this?"

There was a crying tone in the voice, as if it was filled with endless sorrow and loss.

Chen Ze's body trembled slightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He could feel that his heart was struggling fiercely.

He slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were no longer confused and struggling as before, but were replaced by a kind of firmness and determination.

He looked directly at the figure of his best friend who was gradually approaching, took a deep breath and said: "I know you are not him, you are just the obsession in my heart.

I miss him, and I also regret our separation, but I can't let this emotion become a stumbling block for me in this illusion.

My best friend, he hopes that I can go on bravely, instead of immersing myself in the illusion of the past."

However, the illusion did not seem to let him go easily.

The figure of the best friend paused slightly in front of the light, and then the expression on his face became more painful and resentful.

"Chen Ze, you are so cruel! Are you abandoning me like this? Is our friendship so vulnerable in your eyes?"

As the words fell, the scene around the illusion began to change.

The dreamlike world became more gloomy and depressing, with dark clouds in the sky and thunder and lightning.

The wind blew past with a whistle, as if to drag Chen Ze into the endless dark abyss.

Chen Ze's heart trembled. He knew that this was the illusion increasing its attack on him, trying to break his psychological defenses in this way.

But at this moment, he had firmed up his heart and was no longer shaken by appearances.

Although he had not used the clairvoyance before, it was a critical moment at this moment. Only with the help of the clairvoyance could he completely break the shackles of this illusion.

Chen Ze silently said in his heart, clairvoyance.

When the power of the clairvoyance was fully stimulated, the world in front of him was like being gently stirred by an invisible big hand, and began to undergo earth-shaking changes.

The figure of the close friend, who was so real that he could touch his finger, now seemed to be blown by a strange wind and became blurred.

Like a misty smoke, it slowly and gradually dissipated in the air.

Only the traces that seemed to be there and not there were left, which made people feel melancholy.

And the originally gloomy scene around began to distort and break.

It was like a huge mirror, which broke under the heavy impact and revealed the real scene hidden behind it.

For a while, light and shadow intertwined, illusion and reality intertwined, forming a strange and strange picture.

At this moment, Chen Ze vaguely saw some strange runes flashing with a faint light.

An inexplicable impulse surged in Chen Ze's heart, and he walked towards the light without hesitation.

When he was about to pass through the light, he turned back to look at the place where the illusion disappeared.

He shook his head, abandoned all distracting thoughts, and passed through the light directly.

Goodbye, my friend!

The moment he passed through the light, he felt as if his body was wrapped in a warm force.

Then, the scene in front of him became clear, and he was surprised to find that he had returned to the tower.

However, this is no longer the floor where he fought with the mysterious old man.

There is no figure of the mysterious old man here, nor the scene of ruins before.

Instead, a strange and mysterious atmosphere permeates the air.

Just when Chen Ze was still immersed in this sudden change, the voice of the tower spirit came slowly.

"Congratulations, you have successfully passed the test of the illusion."

The voice of the tower spirit echoed in the empty space, as if with a hint of relief and praise.

Chen Ze subconsciously looked around, but did not find the location of the tower spirit.

However, a surge of joy surged in his heart.

It seems that he has completed the test that has been blocking the mysterious old man.

However, after the joy, his heart can't help but fall into deep doubts.

His eyes stared at the void, and his deep gaze seemed to penetrate the layers of fog.

He silently wondered in his heart, what kind of existence is the tower spirit?

The illusion just now was so real, so real that he could hardly tell the truth from the false.

If he didn't have the power of clairvoyance, he probably wouldn't be able to break free from the illusory world.

More importantly, all the memories of him and his best friend didn't belong to this world, but only existed in his heart, unknown to others.

But the illusion just now was like a magical key, which could reveal all the memories buried in his heart.

This made him feel as if he had no secrets in front of the tower spirit.

The tower spirit could not only tell the difference between him and his clone, but also easily intercept the memories in his mind.

This was a very scary thing.

If the tower spirit had bad intentions towards him, he would have no room for resistance.
