Chapter 160 The End
After the smoke from the explosion gradually dissipated, a huge pit appeared in the center of the sand. The inside was charred black, and there was no trace of blood-colored sand. The hot air that was faintly emanating made people feel the residual destructive power, as if all life was swallowed up in an instant.
However, if you look closely, there seems to be a figure standing at the bottom of the dark pit. It is already night, and the surroundings are pitch black. The figure seems to blend into the dark environment, but it is still quickly noticed by the few people who are paying close attention.
Wu Gaoyuan signaled the three giant eagles to land. Before they landed completely, Zhang Chun fell directly from the top of the giant eagles and rushed towards the figure standing at the bottom of the pit. Then, he met an exceptionally bright smile.
His steps couldn't help but pause.
Chu Xiuyan originally lowered his head and focused on his palms, with a subtle and strange smile on his face, as if he didn't care about anything around him. It was not until he noticed Zhang Chun's appearance that he restrained that strange aura.
He stretched out his hand to show off to Zhang Chun the golden fragment in his hand. It was a piece of heart fragment that he had forcibly taken away after the death of the Desert God.
At this moment, Chu Xiuyan did not have the madness and joy he had when dealing with the Desert God. Instead, he looked particularly calm. His eyes fell on the golden fragment in his palm, and he said softly, "Look, uncle, after the death of the god, there is only such a small fragment, and I took it away by force, otherwise it would have disappeared with the rest. No matter how powerful He was when he was alive, he would not leave anything after his death. But humans are different. After death, they still have flesh and blood, bones, and after being burned, they turn into ashes and are buried underground. As time goes by, they return to the earth. From the end of life, the things left by humans will last longer. The Desert God is really a fool."
Zhang Chun's eyelids jumped. He originally wanted to ask about the appearance of the round "sun" and how the "cloud flame" destroyed the desert god, but now his attention was attracted by the other party's abnormal state.
He thought of divine contamination again, and approached cautiously, as if he had no reaction to what he had just said. He changed the subject naturally and said, "How do you feel now?"
Chu Xiuyan suppressed the various strange thoughts surging in his mind, rolled his scarlet eyes, raised a happy smile, and said firmly: "I feel very good."
Zhang Chun didn't believe it at all, and said carefully: "Then do you want to go back to sleep?"
Chu Xiuyan was extremely excited. He waved his hand and said excitedly, "Why are you sleeping? It's only a few o'clock. Let's get excited!"
Zhang Chun's heart skipped a beat. The possibility of divine contamination was very high, but the state of contamination seemed to be different from the last time.
But? What is the difference?
He was about to think deeply, when suddenly, his brain seemed to get tangled.
The black-haired boy seemed to have turned on some strange switch, making a gibberish sound, running around, turning into gray mist and flying around, and then suddenly rushing to his side, lifting him up and then putting him down, lifting him up and then putting him down...
After a few rounds, even Zai Zhe, who had just landed from the eagle's back, couldn't help but take a step back and subconsciously asked, "Who gave Yun Yan fake wine before the battle?"
His voice attracted Chu Xiuyan's attention. After putting Zhang Chun, who had fallen into a long silence, back on the ground, the young man quickly rushed to Zaizhe and stretched out his hand without hesitation, saying confidently: "Where are my coffin and bell! You didn't give them to me during the last meeting. You, the coffin-guarding slave, quickly hand over my things!"
Zai Zhe touched his chin and said, "The aesthetics is very strange. This should not be contaminated by divinity."
Zhang Chun: "Don't use strange methods as a basis for judgment."
At this time, Wu Gaoyuan was also approaching, holding a camera in his hand, taking pictures of the bottom of the explosion pit, with a weird smile on his face, muttering to himself, "How many pictures can I take to send to some poor guy who couldn't come... Oh, Yunyan, do you want to take a picture? Come on, give me a thumbs up, and show off to Boss Lion when I go back."
Chu Li stood on the edge of the high pit, his eyes lingering on the boy who was posing frantically for photos for a long time. Then, his sight touched the soft and burnt ground, and he quietly took two steps back.
"I don't feel uncomfortable. I don't want to sleep. I want to wander to the end of the world."
After responding to Zhang Chun's casual question again, Chu Xiuyan spread his arms and said confidently: "Don't worry, it's just a divine pollution, it will be fine after a good sleep!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crackling sound in his mind suddenly became lighter, and his vision, which was shrouded in scarlet shadows, became bright again. Although his consciousness was still a little confused, he felt much clearer.
【Sleep your head! 】
The system, which had been forced offline for nearly half an hour, shouted angrily. It felt like it was locked outside by its own family. It had no key, and the door was locked. In the end, it kicked the door open and forced its way in.
If the system hadn't been upgraded, he would probably still be outside hitting the barrier with a hoe.
It detects the host's condition, and the sharp voice gradually becomes puzzled, [Life signs are normal, the heart is still intact, there is no strange power in the body... Hey, then why is your divine pollution so high? ]
Chu Xiuyan: [I don’t know.]
The system thought about it but didn't understand, but it had already come in, so? ...
[Put aside the rest and deal with your divine pollution first... Let's go back to reality? Go wash off the dirt in the world! ]
Chu Xiuyan's consciousness began to blur, and before he fell into a complete coma, he could still see the scarlet tree of light standing between heaven and earth.
Zhang Chun was still racking his brains over how to calm the boy down, when he suddenly discovered that the boy had closed his eyes and fell silently. He stepped forward to catch him, sighed helplessly, and then his expression suddenly changed.
There was no heartbeat in the boy's chest.
He calmly tried to sense it again, and then found that he was not wrong.
But here came the problem, he could hear the boy's breathing.
So the heart...?
Before Zhang Chun could think for long, the silver-haired chief priest stepped on the sand at the edge of the pit opposite him and looked down at them with a strange look. Although he didn't say anything, the army of mechanical spiders that were faintly visible behind him and shone with a cold sheen had already expressed a certain attitude.
Zai Zhe and Wu Gaoyuan at the bottom of the pit quickly prepared for battle, while Chu Li, who was also standing at the edge of the pit, waved his hand, and large black threads merged into the night and quickly flowed towards the silver-haired chief priest.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense and dangerous.
Just at this moment, the rumbling sound appeared again.
After being transformed many times, Youdu stepped on his mechanical limbs and came to the edge of the pit.
Cui Zhiyong, who had changed into an ordinary outer robe, squatted on the high wall, holding a loud speaker in his hand, and said to the two parties who were in a stalemate: "Calm down, calm down, you were all partners fighting together a few seconds ago. It's not a good idea to start a civil war now, right? Besides, you have all consumed a lot of physical strength and combat power. Why don't you put aside the conflict and have a good rest?"
After the words fell, there was a slight vibration. Looking in the distance, a steel fortress was approaching quickly.
It is the Kingdom Fortress.
The silver-haired priest looked at Cui Zhiyong from afar, pondered for a moment, as if judging something, and finally took another look at the few people at the bottom of the pit, then turned and left.
Not long after? , those mechanical spiders seemed to have received the order to retreat, and slowly dispersed like the tide.
Cui Zhiyong on the high wall put down the loudspeaker, and a transparent figure gradually appeared beside him. His face was blurred, but his tone was intimate, and he started the topic in a familiar manner.
"I thought you were going to yell for a fight and then just watch from the sidelines."
Cui Zhiyong said bluntly: "Am I sick? If they fight now, it will be of no benefit to either side."
The transparent undead laughed for a long time, and then said: "What are you going to do next? The gods in the desert have died, and at least we can have a few decades of peace. Do you want to follow them back to the forest?"
Cui Zhiyong didn't know how to answer, so he lowered his head and looked into the pit. The bottom of the huge pit was charred black, and a faint sparkling light could be seen.
The next second, the few people at the bottom of the pit seemed to have discovered something and ran out of the pit quite unexpectedly, looking a little embarrassed.
Then, clear water gushed out from the bottom of the pit, drawing a beautiful arc in the air like a fountain, splashing crystal water, and finally, falling back into the pit, forming a lake, which was covered by the night and glowed with a faint but dazzling silver light.
Cui Zhiyong was slightly stunned, and then he saw Zhang Chun and the others coming to the gate of Youdu. His clothes and hair were dripping with water, and his expression was not very good.
He met Zhang Chun's eyes, and the other's eyes had a hint of doubt. He waved at him naturally, then turned his head to look at the lake and said, "The Desert God has fallen, but there are still many things to deal with here. The rebels and the kingdom need someone to help mediate the conflict. Even if the Northwest Stranger has other purposes, they still helped the kingdom a lot. It's easy to invite them here, but it's a bit troublesome to ask them to leave. And the forest... With my status, it's a bit hard to say "just leave" under such circumstances if I abandon everything and leave without permission."
The transparent undead said with great interest: "The kingdom has been destroyed, and now many voices are surging. If you don't want to leave, you will be in a lot of trouble."
Cui Zhiyong sighed: "So I'm thinking about what reason I can use to make Zhang Chun stay for a while..."
Before he could speak, a voice suddenly rang out.
"So you are worried about this."
Zhang Chun climbed up the high wall along the ladder and stood next to Cui Zhiyong. He said, "That's great. I want to build a few railways between the desert and the A3 base. I should stay for a while."
Cui Zhiyong: “…Ah?”
When the transparent undead saw Zhang Chun coming, he introduced himself: "Cui Xiao, this guy's great-grandfather, was also the leader of the resistance army... Well, he should be the former leader now."
Cui Zhiyong was originally a little depressed because the incident was about to end and he was about to say goodbye to everyone. When the transparent undead said this, he instantly looked more shocked than Zhang Chun, "What? You are my great-grandfather? Didn't you die a long time ago... You became the leader of the resistance army after you died?!"
Zhang Chun was so shocked by Cui Zhiyong's startled reaction that he forgot what he was going to say, so he had to talk about another thing.
"You should be prepared first," he said, "Yun Yan seems to be a little concerned about the position of king, so..."
Cui Zhiyong said expressionlessly: "I will turn around and run away the first time I see him. Don't worry, you won't die."
Zhang Chun: “…That’s fine.”
…
Chu Xiuyan opened his eyes.
He has returned to the real world.
The familiar bedroom, the familiar quilt, and the familiar golden fragments in the palm of the hand hide a terrifying and violent aura.
System: […Fuck.]
Chu Xiuyan: "Are my eyes red?"
System Reading: [Congratulations, you have rabbit eyes today too. ]
It was silent for a moment, then frantically said: [Your divine pollution will cause some changes to the body of the real world, but it will recover as time goes by... Then why can this fragment of the heart of the desert god follow you here? ! ]
Chu Xiuyandu? I'm almost used to this world full of bugs.
The cell phone alarm rang.
Today is Monday and he has to go to the morning class.
System: [You are going to school? But your eyes will be discovered now, right?]
Chu Xiuyan: [There are so many college students going to class with red hair these days? Wearing colored contact lenses is already very low-key. ]
The system thought about it and it seemed that this logic was correct, so it said: [Then you hide the heart fragments, I will go to draw comics, and you go to class.]
Chu Xiuyan to himself in the mirror? He winked and said happily: "Got it~"
