Chapter 156 Dark Nest (You Must Die)
The voice disappeared.
Perhaps realizing that this ill-intentioned outsider was too hostile, the voice that seemed to come from the leader of the Dark Nest disappeared, leaving only the heavy stone door automatically opening inwards.
Revealing the pitch-black darkness inside.
Bai Ri didn't care much and just stepped straight in, letting his figure be swallowed by the darkness. The comments were filled with screams.
Fortunately, the torch seemed to be voice-controlled, creating a great atmosphere. It suddenly lit up the moment the young man made footsteps, burning with a crackling sound and illuminating the scene.
What is a different world?
Looking at the residence in front of him that was so empty that a howl would echo eighteen times, Bai Zhou and the readers fell into an eerie silence.
Maybe only by folding up the entire passage of the dark nest can there be such a large space? The cultists were really relentless when it came to the matter of their leader, and they worked so hard to dig out a huge residence for him to live in, not worrying that he would be woken up by the echo of his own snoring at night.
The light is dim, barely bright enough to see your fingers, which is very conducive to sleep. Looking around during the day, the young man with excellent night vision can easily take in everything.
It was indeed an extravagant and jaw-dropping arrangement. Almost all the priceless things were moved to the main center of the rat hole, and filled up the surrounding areas as offerings to the sleeping being in the center.
But the most eye-catching thing is the screen standing in the distance ahead. The width and height are several times the normal ones, and it just stands there, obscuring the things behind it.
The area behind that should be where the leader is sleeping. But no matter how you study the facilities of this residence, they seem extremely strange.
It was too empty, without even the objects for daily use, only a wide area and valuables, and a motionless screen in the distance.
The air was filled with dead silence and weirdness, and the wind that was so cold that it hurt like a knife cutting the skin came from nowhere. What makes people want to turn around and leave is that after entering this place, the heart beating wildly in the chest, the ominous sixth sense and the fear that arises subconsciously are all reasons that make people freeze in their tracks.
Why no one knows the true appearance of the leader of the Dark Nest. Not two years ago, and not two years later. Two years ago it was buried under countless corpses, and two years later it was covered behind a screen.
It was too quiet, and the comments were low and sharp.
"This place doesn't look like a place for people to live."
"There's not even a place to take care of your physiological needs (shocking.jpg)"
"This can already be classified as an adult..."
"But according to the way cartoonists usually do things... the appearance of the characters in this cartoon is hard to describe (silence)"
“That’s not all deformed.”
"This place is all about money, it reeks of money (pinches nose) Vulgar! Really vulgar!"
"Brother Zhu, quickly break the screen so we can find out what's going on!"
"Your brother Zhuo has a brain of steel that can withstand the mind control of the leader of the Dark Nest!"
——
Not just a brain of steel, but a will of steel.
Bai Zhou was not affected by any factors, but just walked forward on his own. In a moment, he was close to the huge screen and his eyes were aligned with the dense patterns that dazzled the people looking at it from above.
It seemed to be a formation, with lines extending down to the ground. The ground was densely covered with lines that were carved out, deeply imprinted with residual fishy smell and blood foam.
It’s still a man-eating formation.
"You are very special." The inhuman voice sounded again, this time not in the mind, but behind the screen not far away, "I can't touch your spiritual network for a while."
"At your age, you can be considered a young and promising person."
The voice seemed neither old nor young. It was the first time that Bai Zhou wanted to use the word chaotic and disordered to describe a voice. It almost goes straight into your ear canal and leads to the brain. It is composed of countless overlapping sounds, making people's brains buzz and can easily guide other people's thoughts.
This is not surprising, why are those cultists so loyal. From time to time, I would hear some confusing voices from my superiors in my head, and my mind would disappear as I became excited.
“So the leader of the Dark Nest is not an ordinary person as rumored, but a person with psychic abilities.” Bai Zhou thought calmly, “The abilities catalyzed by the black fog are even more powerful… I still have to see what he looks like with my own eyes to confirm it.”
"I will be on duty outside at all times, you just need to concentrate." The light ball concealed its own aura, "After being held in high esteem for four years, anyone would feel proud. I can sense that he doesn't really care about you."
"The aura of that power is getting stronger... It makes me sick. I have some ideas in my mind. I'll talk about them after we get out."
"Understood." Bai Zhou responded softly.
The characters to be portrayed in the comics require sufficient conditions to be controlled. In order to avoid excessive consumption of heat value, most of them should be consistent with the performance in the comics and not be too false, so as to minimize the possibility of plot deviation.
This is the most important node in the current plot and must be treated with caution.
So... according to Bai Zhou's character, how would he react in such a situation?
——
In the cartoon, a young man stands behind a screen, looking straight ahead, as if he can see through the thick obstruction and look directly at the unknown "person" behind him.
His expression was strange.
Unlike the fear, hatred, and admiration that anyone would express... those eyes that belonged to the daytime were always calm, with only one-sided ripples occasionally appearing, and under the young man's seemingly true expression, it seemed like a drama.
Calm and empty, as if everything is under control, looking into those eyes makes one feel angry yet powerless.
Even now, standing in front of the "Dark Nest Leader" whose mere name can cause panic, nothing has changed.
[In fact, I have never been able to understand why you who call yourselves "decent" people reject our ideas. 】
That deceptive voice sounded again, entangled people's thoughts into a mixed ball, and was kneaded into a fixed shape.
[I was once just an ordinary person, wasting my time and destined to die one day... After the end of the world, I hid from place to place, trying my best to stay alive. My life was as insignificant as weeds on the roadside. 】
[Until one day... I was swallowed by the black fog and glimpsed the truth of the world. 】
The voice sighed.
You can't stop us. Daytime, as long as the black fog lasts, I will not die. The Dark Nest will come back thousands and thousands of times until we have a true new life and completely wipe out the filth of the world. 】
[You are a smart person.] 】His tone was soft, as if he was admonishing a lost lamb, [I have heard of your name. You may have the same opportunity as me, and thus have a unique understanding of the Dark Nest. It's a pity that our choices are opposite... But you can't beat me, Daytime. 】
[You are too late.] 】
【Yeah. 】Bai Zhou lowered his eyes and spoke with a smile.
Perhaps the disdain contained in it was too obvious, and the seemingly helpless voice paused for a few seconds.
Is what you see the real truth? The young man raised his eyebrows, chuckled and asked back, "How pathetic! He thought he was high above everyone else and had unparalleled power, but in the end he even forgot his own name." 】
[Has the Lord you believe in ever cast his gaze upon you, you self-conceited...believer? 】
The last sound dissipated lightly in the air, and the high-pitched, mocking tone directly hit the other party's sore spot, directly tearing through the thin layer of hypocrisy.
The voice remained silent for a long time.
[It seems you know more than I thought. There was a sticky rubbing sound, like the slippery tentacles of multi-legged creatures entwining, and a faint sound of water and a fishy stench. It was also more impolite than I had imagined. 】
[But it doesn’t matter, I was young and frivolous... I also had this kind of time, but it will eventually disappear into dust. We are alike, and you will always know that I am right. 】
TA said forgiveness like a hypocritical elder, and there was no anger in his tone, only the tone of voice changed from mature to childish. The catalyzed superpowers have been completely integrated with TA. It is no longer the psychic who controls the superpowers, but the superpowers that control the entity.
Even if he makes a sound, it becomes an extension of his superpowers, invading the opponent's nerves.
Bai Zhou smiled and said: [If growing up means becoming a half-human, half-ghost like you, I'd rather just go to the ground. 】
The barrage, which had been silent for a long time, silently praised the young man's aggressiveness. In the early stages, the two of them were exchanging verbal attacks to show respect for each other, and the smoke of war was so rampant that it made people afraid that a fight would break out in the next second.
Judging from the combat power analysis in the comics, readers are not sure who will win in this match.
The leader of the Dark Nest also laughed. The laughter was unclear and as sticky as the strange movement.
[How strange...] TA may have thought about winning over Bai Zhou, but at this point, even a fool could see that the young man clearly hated Anchao. Mind control failed, and the probability of success of the rhetoric dropped to 0.1 percent.
[As far as I can remember, I have never seen you, nor have I ever seen anyone who looks like you. I remember every face that has ever appeared in the Dark Nest. 】
[Bai Zhou, this is really strange... No one knows where you come from and why you have such strength. Neither the government nor we have found any records of you in this world. 】
His weird laughter was mixed in every word: [You are like an outsider who does not exist in this world. There is not even a trace of your existence in this world, but you have such a strong hatred towards me. Why? 】
[The mere repulsion between good and evil cannot explain your motives. Is that what you would do, daylight? 】
He paused.
「Ah, I almost forgot……You laughed at me for forgetting my own name, so I want to ask you──」
[“Daytime”, is this really your real name? 】
The atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.
The screen in the picture serves as a dividing line, isolating the areas of the two opposing camps. The young man's smile froze, his eyes turned cold because of the other party's words, and the fake mask was instantly shattered, revealing the true disgust underneath.
This was the first time that the barrage saw Bai Zhou's expression.
This person's sorrow and joy seem very one-sided, like a dead leaf floating on the water, drifting everywhere, pieced together by the ripples to form a mask that will be blown away at the slightest breeze. The smiling face has long been attached to that beautiful face, and the long eyelashes that are bent and then folded down are a cover for the emotions. Even readers who have been following him all the way dare not believe what he says or does, for fear that this is another deliberate trick on his part.
Correspondingly, love and hate during the day are also very indifferent.
He seemed to just keep moving forward, never looking back at those who were left behind or killed. There is an inextinguishable fire in his heart, burning away even the slightest hesitation, burning off all the ties that have bound him so far in life, and letting him walk in an unknown direction.
But is it really so? The barrage looked at the familiar young man on the screen and felt inexplicably strange.
If he was really just a martyr who had no regrets and a loner who had given up everything, why would he break his mask at this moment, revealing the hatred burning in his eyes?
The barrage felt confusing. This chapter, which is dominated by daylight, seems to start to surge with undercurrents from this moment, gradually revealing everything buried deep underwater.
The amount of information is so huge that it will burn through the CPU.
"...Baizhui isn't Baizhui's real name???"
"Ah...? The leader of the Dark Nest has never seen Bai Zhuo? Then the speculation that Bai Zhuo was in the Dark Nest was completely denied by the person involved? Brother Zhuo is not the kind of morally upright person who hates evil. He said from the beginning that he has a great grudge against the Dark Nest?"
"How weird, so weird. When I think about it this way, I realize there are so many contradictions... The leader of the Dark Nest actually became the final MVP. He figured out so many things in such a short time."
"Neither did his relatives die in the Dark Nest, nor was he imprisoned as an experimental subject... He was just used by the protagonists. What else could it be? He hates him so much that he wants to kill him directly..."
"It's really strange. The government and the two big bosses of the Dark Nest didn't find any information about Bai Zhou. Even the easiest faction and birthplace are unknown... It's been so long, there's no reason for the cartoonist to hide a new faction (scratching his head)"
“Wait, is it possible that Brother Zhou is also an energy being… (Hesitant) A powerful esper who appears out of nowhere and has no source…”
“…Ah? Ah? That can’t be right, what’s the direction this is going?”
"Impossible. Two years ago, the Dark Nest had not yet attempted to create an energy body, and the most recent one was a year ago. Taking Qi Heng as an example, even if there were other successful energy bodies, they would not have grown to such an outrageous level. This must have taken many years of accumulation and experience to form (screenshot.jpg) (screenshot.jpg)"
"Great! It's the fact-checking party. We are saved!"
…
Dense barrage of comments filled the screen.
Unexplained hatred, overturned conclusions, and two people standing opposite each other in the comics. The young man whose name was even fake had a blank expression on his face.
Who is he, where did he come from, and why? The secrets swallowed into the stomach are corroded by stomach acid and turned into ashes and will never be spoken out of that mouth.
Perhaps only those who are looking at things from a God's perspective and as bystanders have the opportunity to piece together his fate, to find the fragments of "Daytime" in that torrent, and finally to mourn his destined ending in the embers of hatred.
[Names and such are not important.] 】
In the silence, the young man with a hoarse voice opened his lips and uttered words that had been chewed over thousands of times.
You're right, we are indeed very similar. because……】
[I hate you and everything you represent. Even if I die and no body is left, I will do it all over again. 】
[Until all of this damn black fog is killed, until the world ushered in a true rebirth and the filth was completely wiped out. 】
so.
The silver thread suddenly left the hand, carrying with it the holder's strong murderous intent, and easily penetrated the heavy screen and pierced straight into the unknown place behind.
The young man raised his eyes, his expression suddenly bright, with fire flickering in his eyes.
[You must die.] 】
