Chapter 1114: Tricking Hiratsuka Shizuka

Hiratsuka Shizuka can always maintain that rare calmness and calmness no matter how big the storm is. However, at this moment, she could not maintain that calmness no matter what.

Her heartbeat was beating like a drum, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. Obviously, the nightmare scene was still lingering in her mind.

In that dream, she seemed to be in a dark and depressing abandoned factory, surrounded by a strong metallic atmosphere and unknown fear.

Suddenly, a huge figure walked out of the shadows. It was a monster made of scrap car parts. Its eyes flashed with a cold red light, as if it could see into people's deepest fears.

Shizuka Hiratsuka tried to escape, but her feet seemed to be bound by invisible chains, unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, the Autobot raised his huge fist and struck her with destructive force.

At that moment, she felt unprecedented despair and helplessness, and then endless darkness...

That ugly and desperate way of death caused cold sweat to break out on her back the moment she woke up.

When she suddenly woke up from her sleep, she found herself lying on an unfamiliar bed. The room was simple and warm, and the soft light shone on her face, bringing a sense of comfort.

Shizuka Hiratsuka subconsciously touched her body and confirmed that there was nothing serious except that her clothes were a little messy due to the struggle.

Her heartbeat gradually calmed down, but the terrifying dream still left her with lingering fear.

"Where is this? Why am I here?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked around, trying to find the answer.

"Phew... now is not the time to wallow in fear."

She secretly reminded herself, quickly adjusted her mentality, and decided to figure out the current situation first.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

Now was not the time to wallow in fear and doubt, she had to figure out what had happened and what she should do next.

So, she carefully climbed out of bed and walked barefoot on the soft carpet, trying not to make any noise.

After walking out of the room, Hiratsuka Shizu came to the living room. The layout of the living room is also full of retro atmosphere. There is a person sitting on a large sofa, it is Luther.

The sunlight shone on him through the window, coating him with a golden glow, making him look particularly warm and mysterious.

Seeing Luther, most of the fear and uneasiness in Hiratsuka Shizuka's heart dissipated instantly.

She walked forward quickly, almost trotting to Luther, stopped, clenched her hands into fists, and said with a tremor in her voice: "Mr. Luther, I was worried... I thought I would never see you again. No more for you."

Luther raised his head and looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka with a hint of smile in his eyes: "Oh, it's Miss Hiratsuka. You woke up just in time. I was worried that you would stay asleep. Don't worry, you were just too frightened. , will fall into deep sleep.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka's cheeks turned slightly red when she heard this. She had never shown such a feminine attitude in front of anyone, but when facing Luther, her reserve seemed to disappear naturally.

"Sorry for making you laugh. It's just... I just didn't expect to wake up here."

She was embarrassed by her gaffe.

If she were at school, facing her juniors or seniors, she might appear stronger and more confident, but at this moment, facing Luther, she could not suppress her inner vulnerability and dependence.

Perhaps because Luther looked similar to her age, or perhaps because of the strength he showed in times of crisis, Shizuka Hiratsuka had an indescribable affection for him.

"Mr. Luther, thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I might have..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice was choked with sobs. She lowered her head and bowed deeply to express her gratitude.

Luther waved his hand gently, indicating that she didn't have to be so polite: "You're welcome, I just did what I should do. Moreover, the person you should really thank is yourself. It is your courage and persistence that allowed you to survive. ”

Shizu Hiratsuka nodded gratefully, and then remembered the conversation with Luther before he fell into coma, and the worry about the monster's recovery came to his mind again.

"Mr. Luther, what you mentioned before is that there will be more and more monsters. Is it true? Am... am I dreaming?"

Luther's expression became serious. He stood up slowly, walked to the window, and stared at the seemingly peaceful but undercurrent world outside the window.

"Unfortunately, that is not a dream. The world is indeed recovering, and those demons and monsters that were once sealed and forgotten are gradually returning. This is the beginning of a new era and an unprecedented challenge."

Hiratsuka Shizu's heart sank suddenly, as if he was tightly grasped by an invisible force.

Although she has always been a strong and independent woman who has never flinched in the face of all the hardships in life, at this moment, faced with such an extraordinary phenomenon, she inevitably felt a little powerless in her heart.

Those monsters that only appeared in legends and stories are now coming into her life and become a reality that she must face.

"Then... what should we do?"

There was a hint of despair in Hiratsuka Shizu's voice, and she held her hands tightly, as if she could hold on to a glimmer of hope.

In her opinion, Luther seemed to be the only savior she could encounter. It was he who gave her the truth about the world, and it was he who might point out a way for her to survive.

"That depends on your choice."

Luther looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"My choice?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka was confused. What choice did she have?

She is just an inconspicuous woman, with no prominent family background, no extraordinary abilities, and even in this world that is about to be invaded by monsters, she does not even have the ability to protect herself.

She didn't understand what Luther meant by "choice."

"Yes, you are luckier than ordinary people."

Luther's words stunned Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"What does this mean?"

Hiratsuka Shizu asked in confusion.

"You have spiritual qualifications, but ordinary people don't have such things."

Luther said.

Hiratsuka Shizu suddenly realized that she finally understood the meaning of Luther's words. It turns out that in this seemingly hopeless world, she has not everything.

She possesses a power that ordinary people only dream of - spiritual power.

Although this power is unknown and dangerous, it is also her hope to survive in this new era.

"So, Mr. Luther, are you going to teach me how to use spiritual power?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka asked excitedly, knowing that she had spiritual power, which was much better than ordinary people. At the very least, ordinary people would definitely die if they faced monsters, but if they could obtain spiritual power and know how to If you use spiritual power, it will definitely be much better than ordinary people.
