Chapter 131-130- Another Me

This was a development that no one had expected, not even the Soul Fire Saint, nor the Reincarnation High Priest Ducha, and Liana and Firefly were stunned. It was not until a moment later that they realized that Zero could actually deform a strong man like the Corpse Demon Saint on the spot. The strength he displayed was simply incredible.

Seeing the deformed Corpse Demon Seiji and Soul Fire Seiji fighting each other like two wild dogs biting each other, Zero smiled brightly, as playful, cruel, and full of malice as always.

But when she turned her head and looked at Liana again, the evil on her face immediately disappeared, replaced by a gentle spring breeze. She said softly, "I'm going to leave for a while, Liana."

"Where...where are you going?" Liana could sense something was wrong in her tone. "I'm going with you!"

"No, I'll be back soon." Zero leaned his head over and rubbed her face affectionately, "Don't worry."

"I don't understand." Liana thought to herself, if you are only going to be away for a short while, why do you look so sad?

She had never seen such a forced smile on Zero's face before. This wasn't how she should be. She had just instantly killed an invincible, top-tier warrior. She should be happy, declaring her victory with that same scornful, mocking smile she had countless times before.

What is she sad about?

The tender touch was fleeting, and Zero let go of her, turned around and walked forward.

Liana was a little anxious, but she was exhausted and even stood up shakily, so it was impossible for her to catch up.

She could only watch Zero walk farther and farther away, and wherever he passed, it was like a field of divine punishment was unfolding. Whether it was Ducha or other enemies who arrived late, they would instantly be deformed and turned into monsters following her.

She became anxious for no reason and kept calling out Zero's name. But unlike every time before, this time, Zero never turned back.

…

Under the dim sky, the park behind the Soulfire Church was filled with the smoke and chill of battle. Yvette's bone blade pierced the Soulfire Saint's avatar's soul, and before the opponent could even utter a muffled groan, it dissipated into a wisp of black smoke.

She frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Her previous battle with the Soulfire Saint was quite evenly matched. Since the Pure White Touch was confirmed to be unable to cause damage to the spirits, the battle between the two sides became a pure magic duel. The opponent's ghosts, bone spears, and cursed winds appeared in an endless stream, and she used the elemental magic she was good at to fuse the soul flames to fight back.

Later, the Soul Fire Saint seemed to be a little annoyed by her chopping, and actually summoned a bone blade, and started a swordsman-like duel with her. The fight was so fierce that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and the avenue was almost wiped out.

But this exhilarating fight didn't last long. At a certain moment, Soul Fire Saint Si's movements suddenly froze, becoming as stiff and sluggish as a puppet. After a few seconds, he completely gave up resistance, allowing her bone blade to penetrate him easily.

This is very strange. Even if it is a clone created by a spirit, the Soul Fire Saint should not give up so easily.

Could it be that something happened to the Soul Fire Saint himself, so it was like the network was disconnected and he suddenly lost control of his clone?

A strong sense of weirdness emerged in her heart, and Yvette fell into deep thought, always feeling that something seemed to be happening.

…

Wearing the black cloak that Liana put on him, Zero walked steadily through the thickest night before dawn.

The streets of Fusjiang stretched out beneath her feet, dead silent and empty, with only the growing army of deformed flesh and metal behind her emitting a constant and terrifying roar.

A tide of soldiers, policemen, and priests rushed over, numbering in the hundreds and thousands. However, the moment they met her gaze, their movements froze, and they began to wail, twist, and reorganize themselves frantically, transforming into hideous monsters and joining the silent, deformed army.

After a few more minutes, the three magic mechas that received the emergency order stood at the end of the street like a mobile fortress.

But the result was no different. Zero still just glanced over there and turned the three steel giants into docile meat mountains crawling at his feet.

She continued to move forward, but perhaps because the momentum was too terrifying, the number of enemies in front of her gradually became fewer and fewer, so few that she was too lazy to even glance at them, and the mutants would spontaneously help her deal with them.

Finally, the first ray of dawn finally struggled to pierce the horizon. At the end of the road, a silver-haired girl holding a bone blade slowly walked towards them.

Almost there... Zero thought quietly, then suddenly raised his head and glanced at the gray sky.

A few kilometers away, on the body of the bone dragon, the Soul Fire Saint, who was still fighting with the Deformed Corpse Demon Saint, suddenly froze.

Then……

His body began to twitch and swell uncontrollably, and under his skin, the same purple-red veins spread wildly.

The bone dragon beneath him also howled in pain and began to deform violently.

…

I don’t know how long it took, but the wave of chaos and distortion ended, and in the dim morning light, the deformed creatures disappeared underground, as if they had never appeared.

But by then, most of the Fus River had become a vast, silent graveyard. The streets were deserted, with only congealed blood, scattered weapons, and ruined buildings whimpering in the cold wind.

How many people died? 200,000? 300,000? Or more?

Where's Soulfire Seiji? Did he escape? Or was he also killed by Zero?

How are Liana and Firefly?

Yvette had no idea about these questions.

But she didn't have time to think about these things now. She had to concentrate on keeping a close eye on Zero's every move, because she knew one thing very well, that is, when Liana was not present, Zero would be extremely aggressive towards her.

What's more, at this moment, Zero's signature annoying smile has disappeared, replaced by a strong sense of indifference, like an exquisite but cold porcelain doll walking on the road to destruction.

Then, not long after, under her gaze, Zero's pace quickened, turning into a running posture, rushing towards Yvette.

Yvette used the distortion magic without hesitation, and her silver hair swept towards Zero like a waterfall pouring down from the galaxy.

This trick has always been very useful. It can always restrain Zero and make him unable to move. She has become very proficient in it.

But this time, something different happened.

A strange yet familiar force was released from Zero's body. All the silver-white hairs that rushed over twisted and squirmed under this force, and finally turned into purple-red flesh tentacles, which in turn attacked its owner Yvette!

This was an unprecedented situation. Yvette had never thought that her pure white touch could be infected and distorted!

She should clearly be the nemesis who absorbs the distortion factor!

In an instant, her devouring ability was activated, and as the distortion factor was absorbed and digested, her pure white touch began to return to its original state.

But at the same time, Zero also rushed in front of her, and then with an unexpected rocket headbutt, slammed her into a two-story building next to her.

Boom——!!

The wall collapsed, bricks and stones flew everywhere, and dust rose up in the room. Since ordinary people nearby had been killed indiscriminately by Zero, there was no one else here, only Yvette lying in the rubble, and Zero lying in her arms, not taking the next step.

Yvette's head was buzzing. Her four layers of scarlet armor were shattered so easily. But what was even more strange was that after the defense was broken, Zero didn't know whether he was at the end of his strength or he restrained the strength of his headbutt. In short, it didn't cause any special damage to her, just a little dizziness.

"Hey, Yvette."

Yvette heard Zero's voice, a voice she had never heard before, so gentle that she even felt flattered.

But after two seconds, she realized something and said, "What did you call me?"

Zero smiled softly, her voice filled with sleepiness and fatigue, yet somehow endearing. She didn't answer Yvette's question, but simply muttered intermittently, dreamily, "This... isn't... a completely fake world..."

"I... need to sleep for a while..."

"Take good care of Liana for me..."

“Please…”

"Another me..."

After saying this, she put her face on Yvette's soft chest and fell into a deep sleep.

Yvette looked at her blankly. Before she could understand the situation, she saw Zero's body emitting starlight. His body spread out like sand and disappeared, as if he had never appeared.

At the same time, she saw starlight appearing on her body, but instead of disappearing, it surrounded her and underwent some subtle changes.

This process lasted for more than a minute. When the last bit of starlight disappeared, Yvette slowly sat up, looked at her loose clothes, and confirmed one thing.

She got smaller.

It’s too late. I’ll post it first and revise it later.
