Chapter 1258 - 710: Attack of the Unknown Existence
Chapter 1258: Chapter 710: Attack of the Unknown Existence
Su Yu shook his head. Now that he was fully awake, he could naturally tell that all those so‑called memories with his wife were fake.
Even before this, he’d vaguely felt something was off. After all, he’d never had any wife in his life, and he’d never been able to really put himself into that so‑called marital warmth.
Most likely, that existence who wrote the Dream Ending didn’t know Su Yu well enough, which was why such a huge flaw appeared.
There was also the fact that Su Yu’s identity was special; he had a certain "audience," "reader"‑like trait that made him almost immune to ordinary story‑writing.
That gave him a kind of bystander’s perspective on everything that had just happened, making it impossible to truly substitute himself in.
However, these two points weren’t actually the main reason Su Yu was able to wake up.
After all, the other side had used a story‑rewriting ability. Su Yu had long experienced just how powerful this kind of force was; it was absolutely not something that could be resisted by willpower alone.
Especially since earlier, Su Yu had actively written his own story, then used the threat of mutual Destruction to force some existences of the upper Narrative Layer to help him rewrite it.
That way, the existences of the upper Narrative Layer could truly write Su Yu’s story, affecting him completely and weakening his audience reader identity to the extreme.
Under normal circumstances, even if Su Yu discovered a flaw, after a period of time he would still end up ignoring it.
The real reason was still...
The Profession Panel!
Under the power of the "Dream Ending" earlier, Su Yu had almost really started believing it—believing that everything before had just been a Dream Realm.
But at the final moment of opening the door, Su Yu directly summoned the Profession Panel.
Seeing the panel text appear out of thin air in front of him, all doubts vanished instantly. He woke up completely and would no longer be confused by the "Dream Ending."
At this moment, the voice calling from outside stopped, and the smell of food disappeared as well. Everything fell silent, with only a faint light seeping in through the crack under the door.
The light from under the door suddenly dimmed, as if someone had stepped in front of it.
Knock, knock, knock!
The person outside was knocking.
"Su Yu... why aren’t you coming out to eat..."
A ghostly voice drifted in—it was the "wife’s" voice from before.
But unlike the previous gentleness, this time the voice sounded somewhat sinister.
"So the story’s been rewritten?"
Su Yu knew that some unknown existence must have rewritten the story again.
Since it couldn’t confuse him, it was probably going to use force.
Sure enough, when the "wife" outside saw that Su Yu wasn’t responding, she continued to knock, continued to urge him, her voice becoming more and more urgent and eerie.
Even the light coming through the crack under the door vanished; outside was pitch black.
Then dark red blood began to flow in from under the door.
At the same time, there was the sound of fingernails scraping along the door panel, which made Su Yu feel irritable and on edge.
"So the Dream Ending got changed into a horror story..."
Listening to those increasingly bizarre sounds outside, Su Yu had no idea what the story had now been rewritten into, or what that "wife" outside had turned into.
In fact, no matter what was out there, if Su Yu were at his normal strength, a single thought would be enough to one‑shot it—he could even one‑shot the entire Universe.
But right now, Su Yu was incomparably weak, basically just an ordinary person. If that thing outside broke in, he really might be in danger.
"My power is actually this weakened... I can’t even write in the Book of Narrative... no, I can’t even look at the Book of Narrative..."
All of Su Yu’s abilities were actually still there—Spirit God, Space‑Time Transcender, Destruction Origin, Book of Narrative—none of them had disappeared.
However, he couldn’t use them, because he was too weak. He simply didn’t have enough energy to drive these powerful profession abilities.
He couldn’t even see what the unknown existence had rewritten in the Book of Narrative; he could only rely on guesswork.
Previously, when Su Yu crossed time‑space dimensions and entered the upper time‑space, he’d already become incomparably weak—so weak he couldn’t even control the energy of a single microscopic Particle.
Now that Su Yu had directly crossed the Narrative Layer, he was naturally even weaker. After all, the gap between lower‑layer narrators and the upper layer was simply too vast, so vast that it was almost absolutely impossible to break through.
For Su Yu to forcibly cross such a gap and still retain a normal human body was already enough to surprise him.
He’d originally thought he would become, like before, something that wasn’t even as good as a microscopic Particle.
"It should be the effect of the ’Dream Ending.’ Since it wants to give me an ending, it definitely has to give me an identity, a body first..."
Su Yu guessed that this change was probably due to the other side’s rewritten story.
But this kind of identity bestowed by the story was actually worse than not having one.
A little thought made it obvious that when the other side wrote the Dream Ending, it must have deliberately suppressed Su Yu’s Spiritual Energy and "set" him as just an ordinary person.
So Su Yu being this weak now, unable to use all kinds of abilities, was perfectly normal—since it originated from the Narrative Layer’s power.
Bang!
At that moment, the door of Su Yu’s room was pierced by a sharp knife, and then a bloodshot eye peered in through the hole.
Su Yu hurriedly took two steps back.
From that thing’s eye outside the door, he sensed a kind of Evil God Demon‑like aura. Who knew what kind of Setting it was—better to avoid it.
"This thing has Power of Narrative backing it. It could mutate at any time. I can’t fight it head‑on; better to hide first..."
Su Yu dashed toward the window of the room, opened it, and jumped straight out.
Outside the window was a road; this was the third floor. In Su Yu’s current state, at worst he’d break a leg—he wouldn’t die from the fall.
But the moment Su Yu jumped out the window, he didn’t land as he’d imagined. Instead, he plunged into pitch darkness.
It seemed that the street outside the window just now had been an illusion.
Although it was pitch black all around, this was not a Cosmic Vacuum. There was suitable air, temperature, and Gravity—conditions fit for ordinary human survival.
Beneath his feet was an invisible force field supporting him, preventing things from falling due to Gravity.
Looking up at the sky, there was a sun radiating light, but it seemed somewhat dim and couldn’t illuminate the surrounding darkness.
If one looked closely, the sun wasn’t emitting light at all—it was actually spewing out strings of text!
Countless glowing words erupted from that sun in the sky, forming "rays of light" that reached Su Yu and lit up the environment around him.
Su Yu didn’t recognize those words, but once he focused a bit, they turned into human language he was familiar with.
The content... was actually a description of the surrounding environment, and also... the "story" of Su Yu crossing the Narrative Layer.
"The Book of Narrative of this place? It actually transformed directly into something like a Constant Star, endlessly spewing ’stories’ in the sky?"
"So that’s how it is. Everything in this world is made up of ’stories.’"
"Just now I ran too fast, and the ’story’ outside the window hadn’t had time to be written yet, so it was a patch of Nihility, exposing the truth..."
