Halfway Through the Capture, the Male Lead and the System Ran Away

Gu Chenzhou knew from a young age that the world he lived in was not as simple as it seemed.

Every so often, someone claiming to be there to save him would appear by his side.

Unfortunatel...

Chapter 60 Finale (Part 1)

Chapter 60 Finale (Part 1)

He Zi looked at the man who had appeared out of nowhere, looking puzzled: "Who are you?"

At the same time, his gaze couldn't help but turn to 1551 who was in his arms.

That was a 1551 he had never seen before. It was like a lost kitten that finally met its parents and finally let down all its guard, never again showing that heartbreaking expression of uneasiness.

And when she was in front of him, she had a completely different expression.

But it is precisely in this way that he is more vivid and real.

It's not like what he just emphasized, "it's just a system."

Gu Chenzhou ignored him and comforted the trembling 1551 in his arms.

1551 was not shaking because of fear, but simply because he had just lost all his strength in trying to hold on and not be sent away immediately, and now he was a little unsteady on his feet.

He used to think that he was timid, but recent events gave him a new understanding of himself.

He also wants to use a bomb to blow up the most critical location in this inner world. Who can be braver than him?

1551 couldn't help but curl his eyes. He raised his head and said to the man whose eyes were full of heartache: "It's okay, I'm fine."

Gu Chenzhou said nothing, reached out and touched 1551's cat ears, again and again.

The cat's tail gently rubbed the man's thigh, and 1551 whispered comfortingly: "Look, I'm really fine."

The man's dark eyes fell from his face to his body, instantly locking onto several exposed scratches and bruises, and finally landing completely on his slightly red and swollen wrist.

1551 spoke in a very optimistic tone: "It's just a superficial wound. It will be healed after we get home."

The word "go home" was like a switch, instantly touching the softest part of the man's heart.

Finally, the cold aura on his body eased.

It seemed that 1551 was being held and comforted, but in fact it was the other way around. 1551 was comforting Gu Chenzhou not to develop more paranoid emotions.

He was on the verge of losing his temper, especially after just witnessing himself almost being captured again.

The anger value has already been filled up.

But looking at Gu Chenzhou in front of him, who was so manic and ready to kill at any time, 1551 only felt a pang of heartache.

He didn't know how much effort Gu Chenzhou had put into coming to the other world, but he could sense from the lingering smell of blood on him that he must have paid a price that ordinary people could hardly bear.

The cat's tail touched the man again and again, gently touching his tense nerve endings.

The fierceness in Gu Chenzhou's eyes finally dissipated bit by bit.

However, that only seemed to calm him down; in fact, his murderous intent towards the Lord God did not diminish in the slightest.

The terrifying sense of oppression in the air disappeared, or rather was hidden.

He Zi finally managed to catch his breath and speak. He didn't dare to speak to Gu Chenzhou, so he could only look at 1551: "Who is he?"

1551 peeked at him from Gu Chenzhou's arms and said with a little pride: "He is my lover."

The word "lover" was like a thousand-pound weight dropping down, knocking the other two people present unconscious for a moment.

One is disbelief, the other is satisfaction.

Gu Chenzhou narrowed his eyes slightly. He originally thought that this human was annoying and planned to kill him directly. However, after hearing what 1551 said, his murderous intent decreased. His heart seemed to be soaked in honey, and only this sentence kept ringing in his ears.

He lowered his head and kissed the cat's ears, causing the cat's ears to tremble.

Very cute reaction.

Gu Chenzhou chuckled twice, with only 1551's slightly red ears in his eyes.

He Zi was completely stunned, a sour feeling welling up inside him: "But you're just a system. How can a system understand love?"

He had countless doubts in his mind, but all of them came to an abrupt end the moment he saw 1551's eyes clearly.

All those moments when I had firmly believed that the system had no emotions were broken at this moment, and the thick and ridiculous barrier was shattered.

He truly saw love in 1551's eyes. It was the courage and sincerity of a person who loves at all costs, and it was now projected onto the person holding him, without any concealment or hesitation.

He loved him, and so did he.

It turns out... the system also has feelings.

At this moment of trance, a huge regret overwhelmed He Zi. He realized why the Lord God was so persistent in catching 1551, because he wanted the truth to never be discovered.

He didn't know exactly why or what happened that caused the system to develop emotions, but at this moment, a huge sense of regret swept over his heart.

If I had not reported it to the Lord God just now, no, that's not right, if I had not abandoned 1551 earlier because of a failed mission, would the final result be different?

He had never seen such pure emotions, but when they appeared beside him, he pushed them away with his own hands.

He Zi felt a little breathless: "You..."

Suddenly, there were loud noises in the sky.

1551 had no time to listen to his former host. He raised his head in Gu Chenzhou's arms, his pupils suddenly constricted: "It's Him!"

A huge crack appeared in the sky, as if it was peeled open, and from the crack, a huge eyeball appeared.

The words used to describe horror seem pale at this moment.

The wind was blowing so hard all around that it made people's faces hurt.

That eye was so huge, as if there was a giant that no mortal could ever reach, staring at them through the sky.

The white eyelashes and the whites of the eyes without any trace of blood looked weird and scary.

If I had a strong sense of being watched when I was talking alone with the Lord God before, now this feeling is almost condensed into substance, like a sword piercing the heart, making people feel uncomfortable.

What is on the top is not just an eye, but a sword of Damocles.

"Lord God..." 1551 murmured.

The respect in his tone was no longer there.

After knowing the truth, he felt that this gaze was filled with malice.

He deceived them all.

I'm afraid even the strategy for the surface world is not that simple.

Gu Chenzhou: "Don't be afraid."

He only said two words, and 1551 immediately felt the discomfort in his heart dissipate a lot.

He wanted to smile at Gu Chenzhou, but out of the corner of his eye he saw He Zi, who had been standing just now, bent over in pain after the giant eye appeared. His face suddenly turned red, veins bulged on his face, and he rolled his eyes and almost fell into a coma.

In fact, apart from him, the attackers walking on the street were all feeling very uncomfortable, suppressed and unable to move by this pressure and indescribable fear.

He Zi's reaction was the most intense because he was too close to them.

On the contrary, nothing happened to me.

1551 had just shown a little doubt, but when he noticed Gu Chenzhou's tensed muscles, he suddenly understood.

It’s not that he didn’t feel anything, but Gu Chenzhou blocked the pressure for him and provided him with the safest barrier.

He could even raise his head and look directly at the Lord God.

Gu Chenzhou suddenly spoke up: "My world is not an S-level world at all. It has already surpassed all the existing levels of the surface world."

1551 was stunned for a moment, he remembered a slip of the tongue when the Lord God was talking to him before, He almost said the wrong level of the world where Gu Chenzhou was.

It turns out that this is because that world has long been a super S existence.

"I'm not the only protagonist in the world of thousands of watches who has begun to awaken."

In just a short sentence, the amount of information contained in it is enough to make people feel terrified.

1551's mind had never been so clear before. He perfectly connected with Gu Chenzhou's train of thought: "So, regarding those ninety-nine systems before, the Lord God said that they were killed because they were discovered by the protagonist in the semi-entity plan. The truth is completely the opposite."

He paused for a moment, his tone becoming graver. "It's because the worlds they went to were all worlds where the protagonists showed signs of awakening. The Lord God installed self-destruct devices in them, taking the opportunity to kill those protagonists and sacrifice the systems."

So after the semi-physical plan failed, those world numbers turned gray and were no longer allowed to be viewed.

Behind this plan is another bloody plan.

Although the protagonists are about to awaken, they are still unable to close off the world to prevent the main god's power from intervening, and naturally they cannot resist those S-level props.

Gu Chenzhou nodded, not only resisting the pressure exerted by the Lord God, but also reaching out to touch the kitten's ears lovingly and praising him for his cleverness.

At the moment when the barrier between the inner and outer worlds was broken, Gu Chenzhou successfully awakened completely.

The so-called world consciousness preference will become the world consciousness itself at the moment of awakening, that is, the true God of the superficial world.

Gu Chenzhou: "He fears me because I am the only one who has successfully awakened and will soon distort all mistakes."

How to defeat a god is to use the power of another god.

As they talked more and more, and got closer to the core truth, the Lord God suddenly became angry, and his strange giant eyes exploded, and the entire sky turned black.

That terrifying, irresistible suction force appeared again.

1551 was still sucked into the white hole that had not been closed just now, but this time he had a completely different mentality from before. His hand was held tightly by Gu Chenzhou, and even his whole body was filled with this reassuring aura.

He is safe.

These words come to mind.

It wasn't that he thought of it for no reason, but because of the sense of security that Gu Chenzhou had always given him.

A dazzling white light flashed, 1551 closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they arrived in a pure white space.

1551 was not unfamiliar with this place. Every time he was called away by the Lord God, he would be here.

But this time it was a little different. In the middle of this huge pure white area, right in front of them, there was a white chair with a person sitting on it.

As He raised His head little by little, 1551 felt a huge sense of separation in his heart.

Who would have thought that the main god who controlled the entire inner world and interfered with thousands of outer worlds, looked... no different from a human being.

If I had to say something special about him, it would be that he was so pale as if he had albinism. Not only were his hair and eyelashes snow-white, but there was not a trace of blood in his body, and his wrist bones were so thin.

It's not a giant, nor is it some indescribable, horrible-looking creature.

He just appeared before them unexpectedly in his true form.

It looks so ordinary.

No wonder He never reveals His true face.

1551 blinked, his clear eyes revealing his true thoughts without any concealment.

The Lord God stretched out his hand and clapped.

Snap, snap, snap.

The sound of palms pressing together could be heard in the empty pure white space. There was no word, not even an echo, as if there was no end to this place.

Weird.

1551 felt uncomfortable: "What do you want to do?"

The Lord God seemed to have let go of the fact that a small system had disobeyed him. A satisfied smile curved his lips. "Why don't you two continue our conversation? I want to know how much you've learned since awakening to become a god like me."

"All of them." Gu Chenzhou raised his eyes and looked at him. His eyes, which used to be dark, had now turned blood red.

He hid himself just now because he was worried about scaring the small system.

1551 blinked and muttered, "Looks pretty handsome."

The man's tense aura relaxed, and he bent down and kissed the cat's ears as if no one was around.

Like a big wolfhound that had received a reward, it had a blank expression on the surface and smelt of blood, but in fact, its big tail behind it was already wagging.

The intimate atmosphere between the two people made the Lord God unable to maintain the fake smile on his face for a moment. His eyes became gloomy, and he put on the mask again the next second.

1551 is not afraid of him at all now. They will definitely have an end today.

Seeing this, he spoke without hesitation: "You are as hypocritical as ever."

He thought of the countless bottles, the scarlet umbilical cords, the cold system processing plant, and the mountains of brand-name products piled up in the huge pit, and felt that the pale man in front of him was a complete executioner.

This is indeed the case.

The Lord God could no longer maintain his fake smile and looked at 1551 grimly. Unfortunately, He was unable to do anything to this system that He had never taken seriously.

As long as he dared to direct his murderous intent towards this little guy, it would be equivalent to declaring war on Gu Chenzhou.

1551: "So what is the ultimate truth behind all this?"

The image of the small system was reflected in Gu Chenzhou's blood-red pupils: "The outer world and the inner world are not in a relationship of superiors and subordinates."

The Lord God who heard these words not far away calmed down instead and looked at them with an expression that no one could guess what he was thinking.

"The outer world and the inner world complement each other."

Just like yin and yang, light and shadow.

There is no hierarchy between the two, as their existence is to restrain each other's operations.

The myriad surface worlds need the support of the inner world, and at the same time, the inner world also needs to obtain natural energy from the surface world.

It's all in balance.

Until the person who controls the inner world has desires one day.

He is the only existence in the inner world, and everything else except Him is dead.

Like a giant intelligent computer, His job is to stabilize the hub between the inner and outer worlds.

But if one has desires, can he still be called a god?

He would not feel lonely, but he saw the bustle of the outside world, and suddenly one day, he wanted to create a kingdom of his own.

The world that belongs to Him must of course be superior to the superficial world.

So he brainwashed everyone, making them believe that the existence of the inner world is inherently higher than the level of the outer world, and the so-called strategy is also a means for him to plunder the protagonist's luck and thus strengthen the inner world.

The protagonists who are conquered will have their luck plundered and will begin to sink along with the surface world. Some of the protagonists or important supporting characters will have their memories cleared and their emotions collected to become systems, or they may retain their emotions but clear their memories to become conquerors.

This whole strategy was a giant scam from the beginning, all they did was feed the people who plundered their homes, continuing a ridiculous cycle.

Their world was destroyed, and they had no idea how to destroy other worlds.

There is no common progress at all. Only the inner world, under the leadership of the main god, continues to grow like a vampire, trampling on the vitality of countless creatures in the surface world.

1551 thought about the worlds he had experienced before, and all those worlds had failed.

Now it seems to have become a good thing.

The cold and cruel truth was suddenly revealed, and no sound could be heard in the entire space.

After a long time, the Lord God finally spoke: "You already know the whole truth, and there is another path you can choose."

1551 It was the first time that I looked at a person with hatred, or rather, a disgusting and sinister being in human skin.

Lord God: "If you stay in the other world, I will grant you supreme honor and status, and even make you my equal."

This is why He just showed such an intriguing look.

He has observed humans for so long and has a very deep understanding of them.

That is greed. They will never refuse the option that is more beneficial to them.

The Lord God showed a determined expression and stretched out his hand: "You..."

Phew.

He looked down in disbelief and saw a spear piercing his heart.

Gu Chenzhou raised his eyebrows: "It seems that after becoming the Queen of Gods, I also have the ability to create things."

After saying that, the spear disappeared, replaced by a bomb that began counting down in less than three seconds.

Bang--

The bomb exploded directly inside his body.

Ripples like space distortion spread throughout this pure white space.

If it were an ordinary human, he would have been blown to pieces without even a piece of intact flesh and blood left.

But when all the smoke cleared, 1551 still saw Him standing there intact, with no signs of injury at all.

1551 found a golden barrier around him. Not only was he not afraid, he reached out and touched it lightly.

This barrier becomes extremely solid when attacked from the outside, and even feels a little soft when he touches it from the inside.

It was just the protection that Gu Chenzhou left for him.

From his perspective, he could only see the Lord God and Gu Chenzhou leaping above this space together, with a white light and a golden light intertwined with each other.

Their movements were so fast that 1551 could hardly catch them with the naked eye.

The entire pure white space was shaking because of their actions.

At first they kept creating weapons and props, but later it became a pure clash of power.

Gold and white are intertwined, and the light does not give way to each other.

Every time there was a collision, the pure white space would shake violently, as if the entire space was about to collapse.

1551, who was standing at the center of the war, was well protected and didn't even feel the slightest tremor.

He opened the system panel, but found that his panel had been locked. He could not buy anything and could not contact other systems.

One is a newborn god, and the other is an old god who has occupied the inner world and collected a lot of energy, but it is impossible to tell the difference.

There was not much shock or resentment in the Lord God's eyes. He had guessed it long ago.

There has never been an awakened protagonist in the outer world, because the inner and outer worlds were extremely balanced in the past.

But He broke this balance, causing the scales to completely tilt towards the inner world.

If the surface world is oppressed for too long, a force will emerge to counter it.

If I don't break the barrier between the inner and outer worlds in advance and take the initiative to approach him when I'm growing stronger, I might really fall into his hands.

But now it was different, He knew his other weaknesses.

And that weakness now appeared clearly before Him.

The Lord God's expression of horror changed. When he was about to face the golden light head-on, he suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the golden barrier where 1551 was.

A large amount of white light enveloped the small figure, and even the golden barrier was completely swallowed by the white light.

Gu Chenzhou's expression suddenly darkened, murderous intent filled his red eyes, and a fierce aura rose. The golden light attacking the Lord God rose high, surging towards the Lord God as if it were hundreds of stories high.

But when they were only a few centimeters away from touching Him, everything stopped.

The Lord God smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?"

He raised his hand, and 1551 suddenly appeared beside him. The mechanical cat ears turned into airplane ears because of the fright, and the little face looked a little pale.

The golden barrier failed to block all attacks. After it was broken a little, the power of the Lord God immediately penetrated the space and grabbed him.

Gu Chenzhou didn't move, and stood there looking at the Lord God with a terrifying look in his eyes.

He smiled sincerely for the first time since they appeared in this space. "You didn't choose the path I just gave you. So now there's only one option left."

He placed his hand on 1551's delicate neck, and even without exerting any strength, it looked very dangerous, like a venomous snake clinging to it.

"You can choose to kill me, and I'll take him to hell with me." The Lord God paused, admiring the other person's expression. "Or I'll let him go, provided you cripple both of your arms now."

That would be equivalent to weakening Gu Chenzhou's combat effectiveness by half and cost him his life.

Only one of the two can survive.

1551 suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with anxiety. "Don't be silly! If anything were to happen to you, He wouldn't let me go! Only by killing Him can we restore the balance between the inner and outer worlds!"

This naive little system would choose the former option.

But the new god is destined to choose only the latter.

No matter the outcome, He wins.

The smile on the Lord God's face widened, and the corners of his mouth became extremely wide, as if cracking, to a degree that no human could ever achieve.

The next second, the corners of his mouth froze.

An ordinary dagger pierced through his temple, without leaving a single drop of blood.

1551, who was being held in his grip, had hidden a dagger at some point, and struck him down swiftly when he was at his most proud.

1551: "It's a shame. Don't be stupid is what I told you."

In those round eyes, there was tangible anger.

He increased the strength of his hand again and drove the dagger completely into His brain.

Lord God: "Why do you think this kind of cold weapon can hurt me?"

His tone was cold and sarcastic.

"Iron weapon?" 1551 dimples appeared on his face. After losing his grip, he took several steps back. "Where do you think this dagger came from?"

Gu Chenzhou would never just blindly protect him. When the golden barrier was opened at the beginning, the man also hid the dagger on his body.

How can a true lover not see the edge of his lover?

The Lord God spoke in disbelief, but was interrupted by sharp pain. Although there was not a drop of blood on his body, the horrific pain that was like a soul-gnawing and bone-licking became more and more obvious. It was not until he could no longer maintain his strength that he realized the seriousness of the matter.

"You're plotting against me!?"

He completely took off his mask and let out a painful scream. His white figure curled up in pain in the pure white space, like a dark reptile that was stepped on.

1551: "The last time you entered the surface world and forcibly took me away, you were already injured. You also have weaknesses."

The golden barrier protected him again, this time forming a sphere, carefully sending him back to Gu Chenzhou.

The Lord God's face began to twist, and he opened his mouth and spat out blood.

The dagger formed by Gu Chenzhou's power turned into pure gold and attacked fiercely the already injured part of his body.

Those tiny golden dots of light are invisible to the naked eye, but they are as powerful as bombs in his body, and there are more bombs than cells in his body.

Gu Chenzhou stretched out a finger, and on the tip of his finger was a very light golden thread, thinner than a hair. It passed through the air and connected to the dagger, continuously transmitting power.

Seeing that his consciousness was about to dissipate, fear flashed in the Lord God's eyes. It was the first time that He felt this emotion so clearly, and all this was done by a system that He had always looked down upon.

It was he who inserted the most crucial dagger into his own brain without any hesitation, and even his breath did not change.

The most unlikely weakness would actually become the most important aid in killing Him.

He is unwilling!

Blood began to seep out of the Lord God's mouth and nose, and finally his ears also started bleeding. His eyes were full of blood, and he looked no different from a horrible ghost from hell.

A burst of white light erupted from his body once again, more dazzling than any before, and with a hatred that was completely reckless: "Then let us perish together!"

1551 He only had time to feel a sudden pain in his eyes. Even with his eyes closed, he could feel the white light exploding. He was surrounded by Leng Xiang again. Gu Chenzhou turned his back to the white light and completely embraced him in his arms.

They were too late to run.

1551 Opening his eyes despite the pain, he saw Gu Chenzhou’s smile.

The man smiled at him as calmly and dotingly as always.

At that moment, 1551 suddenly understood what he was going to do.

At the moment when the Lord God self-destructed, he only wanted to exchange his own life for his survival.

All of a sudden, tears started falling.

1551: "Don't..."

He didn't even realize that he was crying.

This was the first time he truly cried.
