Chapter 36: The Sun is Falling and the Rewind Begins
[“Heart? Organ” nearby? ]
When Chu Xiuyan said this, he was surprisingly calm.
The system noticed that the host's emotions had not changed much, and it relaxed slightly, saying: [The "heart" is about 3,000 meters away from you. It has been detected that its state is very unstable and may explode at any time. Moreover, a large-scale battle is suspected to be about to take place over there... The explosion of the "heart" is inevitable, so you'd better leave immediately. ]
Chu Xiuyan's eyes were still fixed on the S-level battlefield ahead.
[In other words? We have to make a quick decision.]
At this moment, the red-haired lady seemed to have found an opportunity. She curled her lips slightly, and suddenly transformed into a sky full of blood crystal roses rushing towards the white-haired girl. It seemed like a beautiful scene, but it concealed a deadly murderous intent. It kept flying around the white-haired girl, lightly passing over the mental attacks that were coming.
She used a delaying tactic to consume the white-haired girl's mental strength in order to win.
The socially anxious guy on the other side was still looking at him. He seemed to be attacking the young man of the Word Spirit School ruthlessly. He hid in the shadows and appeared like a poisonous snake. The blade stabbed at the young man's throat. He was frozen by a "die" and then his body shook and continued to attack!
Chu Xiuyan looked? He didn't understand what their abilities were, but it wasn't a big problem.
"elder brother!"
He suddenly showed a brilliant smile, jumped down from the tree branch, and ran towards the socially anxious boy, shouting at him so hard that he trembled all over and cast a terrified look at him, as if a groundhog was screaming silently.
Chu Xiuyan opened his arms, ignoring the strange looks from the people around him, and enthusiastically hugged the socially anxious boy, "I beat the other three? Here? How about I give you some praise!"
The socially anxious boy stepped back in fear, shaking his head repeatedly.
The young man with the Word Spirit attribute covered his throat which was gushing with blood, and stabbed the charging black-haired stranger with his eyes like a knife. His mouth opened, and just as blood and the Word Spirit were about to gush out at the same time, a scream broke out faster than him.
"Wan Lei! Get out of the way!!"
The young man of the Word Spirit School only felt a shadow passing by his eyes, and the moment he chased the shadow and turned his face, his pupils shrank violently.
Only? The black-haired boy smiled and grabbed the shoulder of the alien whose fighting style was as treacherous and changeable as a venomous snake with one hand. With a flip of his wrist, a sharp blood sword pierced deeply into his leg?, directly nailing the person who was still greeting enthusiastically a second ago to the ground.
The socially anxious boy's body trembled slightly due to the pain, and he had an expression as if he had seen a ghost, but he quickly came to his senses and the downward-pointing knife suddenly stabbed upwards. When the black-haired boy dodged the blade, another knife suddenly appeared from behind his head, flashing a cold light, and stabbed down heavily like a poisonous snake!
Chu Xiuyan did not dodge this time, but stared at the socially anxious boy with a serious and nervous expression, and suddenly smiled, "Brother, I like you so much."
The socially anxious guy's breathing stopped for a moment, his pupils trembled, as if his soul had left his body, but the next second he vomited blood and was hit hard. The blood sword that pierced his chest continued to cause lacerations.
The ground was lifted up? Thick smoke and dust, Chu Xiuyan stood there calmly, his bloody fist loosened, blood dripping slowly from his fingertips.
Suddenly, a cloud of rose petals came from behind him, like sharp blades, trying to grind him into pulp.
Countless tiny screams merged together, shaking the eardrums.
"Who on earth are you——"
The white-haired girl from the Psychic Department struggled to stand on the ground and reminded Chu Xiuyan: "Her consciousness is scattered on every petal, and it is extremely hard. You..."
The black-haired boy tilted his head slightly, raised his hand and waved it, the gray fog swept wildly, the deafening buzzing sound filled the entire space?, scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness?, and in a blink of an eye, dense swarms of bees that made people's skin crawl emerged from the fog, scattering the attacking rose petals one by one to a very long distance, and then attacked one by one.
The echoing shrill screams plunged the area into a terrifying silence.
In the gray fog and dense scarlet bee swarms, the black-haired boy turned to the white-haired girl and the young man from the Word Spirit Department, smiled slightly, and said politely: "Ghost Team, come and help."
"Everyone, please hurry to base A3 without delay. Danger may come soon."
He calmly pointed out the facts, and under the gray fog, he exuded a convincing aura.
System: [Although I shouldn't say such things in this situation, I really can't help it... You can actually pretend to be such an unfathomable boss, amazing.]
As soon as these words came out, Chu Xiuyan's IQ, which had just risen, suddenly dropped.
[System! Why did you interrupt me again?!]
…
boom!
To the north of the A3 base, a dense forest rose up. Thick smoke billowed, and countless birds flew away in panic. The clear cries of birds spread far away in the night.
At this time, the ground within a radius of 100 miles was in a mess, with deep pits everywhere, and countless lush trees broken, spreading the moonlight throughout the entire space without any obstruction? .
The clear sound of blades colliding, the sharp explosion of cutting through the air, the afterimages of teleporting, the heavy dust raised, round after round of battles were staged here.
The blond man dodged the fist that was aimed at the back of his head, and with his backhand he yanked the attacker and threw him to the ground. The attacker vomited blood, and his vision blurred. Suddenly, his eyes went black, and then he felt a sharp pain.
With blood splattering, the man retracted his foot that was stepping on the enemy's head, panting heavily, wiping the blood off his face, and lifting the backpack on his shoulder. His eyes moved to the five aliens standing around him, and finally landed on the silver-haired young man who was farther away. He said as if chatting: "Aren't you coming to kill me?"
His wrist, which was hanging naturally, trembled slightly, and he could clearly feel the pain spreading rapidly.
When he looked down, he found that it was actually the growing and spreading of tiny pieces of blood crystals. Because there were fewer of them and they were relatively transparent and clear, they actually looked quite beautiful under the moonlight.
The old lion snorted strangely, and then he heard the silver-haired chief priest say, "I will not kill my former friend."
Lion? He scratched the back of his neck, as if a little uncomfortable, and sighed: "But you will witness the death of your former friend with your own eyes."
The silver-haired high priest nodded imperceptibly and said, "I will personally witness your death... and the setting of the sun."
The old lion grinned, "When did you become so polite? But... Even if the sun falls, it will rise again. Officiant, you should stop worrying so much."
The blood crystals that began to grow from the wrist gradually expanded to the arm, layered like snake scales, vibrating up and down like a living thing.
The lion clenched his fist, the smile on his face did not disappear, and suddenly swung it to the side, and air explosions sounded one after another.
Countless explosions occurred as far as the eye could see. Soil and rocks were blown away, and scarlet blood splattered under the violently raised dust.
But the next second, four aliens appeared around him at the same time, and not far away there was an alien holding a gun pointing it at him.
Danger was approaching, and his body instinctively wanted to react, but his vision flickered, and scarlet blood flooded into his eyes. With just a slight sway, a bloody hole appeared in his chest, and his arm was pierced by the blade, and blood gushed out, causing him to cough up blood continuously.
One of the strangers looked at his companion and quickly reached for the backpack behind the lion elder. But the moment he touched the backpack, a bloody hand covered with blood crystals grabbed him tightly like an iron clamp.
"She... Yuanyuan said?... She doesn't like strangers? Weird people touching her."
The old lion looked down at the alien who stretched out his hand. He was very tall, covered in blood, and looked extremely embarrassed, but the sense of oppression he brought was even stronger.
The stranger whose wrist he had grabbed was terrified, and his hand trembled, and the backpack was snatched back by the lion master.
When the terrifying sight moved away, the alien breathed a sigh of relief?, but the next second his head instantly? exploded, and the headless body? slowly fell to the ground.
This scene shocked several other strangers. They looked at the weak lion and forgot that the injured and dying lion was also a lion with terrifying fighting power.
At this time, the blood crystals on the lion's body grew very fast, and invaded his eyes in a blink of an eye... Just as the lion's body said before, he was like that extremely unstable [heart], which could collapse at any time with just a little bit of stimulation.
For Lion Master, that little bit of stimulation is the use of supernatural powers.
He snatched the backpack back, blood gushed out of his mouth, and the moment it was exposed to the air, it solidified into blood crystals.
"How strange... So this is the view, so red... Even the moonlight is red, it feels beautiful and creepy."
Under the moonlight, in this messy battlefield, the aliens no longer took the initiative to attack. They stood not far away, watching silently? The blond man holding his backpack, observing the surroundings with curiosity.
...His eyes have been completely invaded by blood crystals.
The lion master noticed that there were no more attacks around him, and he was inexplicably angry. Instead, he took the initiative to accuse them: "What are you doing? Why don't you continue to attack? You are just being perfunctory and slacking off! Is this work attitude worthy of the appreciation of the chief priest?!"
There were only four aliens left, they looked at each other with strange expressions, but no one said a word.
Instead, the silver-haired head priest said faintly, "I just randomly called a few people over."
Lion? Da turned and scolded him: "Perfunctory! You are in a high position, and you can still be so casual? Your words may affect the whole society!"
Priest: “…Oh.”
Lion? He shook his head. "Forget it. Since you guys are not attacking me anymore, I'll leave first. I have something urgent to do..."
He moved forward, but his body? No response.
My legs...can't move.
"strangeness……"
He muttered something and lowered his head. His vision was all scarlet, and he could only see a slight outline.
The blood that flowed from his body solidified into blood crystals, merging with the blood crystals that grew on his body surface, and then... pinned him to the ground.
"Oh," said the old lion after a long pause, "Have a lot of blood crystals grown in my lower body, trapping me inside?"
He wanted to turn around, but suddenly found that his right arm was unable to move.
The silver-haired high priest witnessed the blood crystal devouring the human body like a living thing? The scene was horrifying, weird, but inexplicably beautiful.
He heard the beating of his heart.
He also heard the opening of the road to evolution.
But that path... Lion chose to refuse.
so,
"Snatch the [heart? Dirt]!"
The officiant issued the final order, his tone? Extremely serious.
Lion? He was holding a backpack, and the blood crystals covered almost his entire body. In his scarlet vision, he saw several figures approaching him. He wanted to attack, but his rationality was slowly fading.
So he opened his backpack and pulled out a glass jar filled with a mysterious liquid. Inside it was a scarlet blood crystal that looked like a heart beating.
"I'm sorry, Yuanyuan, I can't seem to move." The lion master tried hard to smile, but failed. "We can only set the battlefield here. It's very different from the plan. It's unexpected... We lack a little luck, just a little bit..."
His voice was hoarse, as if he was choking, but soon his tone became firm again, even a little bit of forced coldness.
"This world has never been willing to give luck to humans, so we must take it back with our own hands... the era that belongs to humans."
With a crisp sound, the glass jar shattered, and the heart-like blood crystal began to beat rapidly, as if responding to something like a living thing.
The lion elder loosened his hand, and could no longer see anything in his scarlet vision. He didn't even know if he was speaking.
"Go, Yuanyuan, fly up, go to the sky, and kill the [Forest]!"
The lion boss, who had transformed into a complete blood crystal, resonated with the [heart] that began to ascend.
[Go kill God [God]! This world doesn't need [God]! ]
【Go kill [God]! 】
The last bit of his consciousness was still echoing, but it was getting weaker and weaker.
[And...I will accompany you? Go to hell.]
The aliens around were still a step slower. The aliens holding guns no longer cared about the "capture alive" order - what a joke, that's all? A heart? Dirty, how could he still be alive! ?
Then, with a "bang", a special bullet shot towards the blood crystal heart that was rising rapidly into the sky, but it suddenly stopped less than a centimeter away from the heart, and then quickly returned to the original path, shooting through the head of the shooter.
"Master Priest!" Someone looked at their leader, "There is still a chance, quickly destroy that monster!"
The silver-haired chief priest was originally looking up at the blood crystal heart. After hearing this, he slowly turned his face away. His eyes, which were covered by the blood crystal slices, did not reveal any emotion. As a result, the stranger thought that the chief priest would help.
"monster?"
The silver-haired chief priest recited these two words slowly, and then as if he was laughing, a scarlet blood crystal paper emerged from behind him, turned into a residual shadow, rolled up the stranger who spoke, and then crushed him to death without mercy.
He said, "You actually call this heart a monster. It is an evolutionary sample with far more research value than your defective products. It represents new possibilities for mankind. But, have you already excluded yourselves from the category of "humanity"?"
The three strangers lowered their heads and dared not say anything more.
The blood crystal heart was still rising into the air, flying towards the forest outside the A3 base. It was beating faster and faster, and the air around it was faintly fluctuating. The scarlet light was getting brighter and brighter, as if it was going to burn out life and illuminate everything.
But at a certain moment, the small blood crystal heart suddenly stopped at the edge of the A3 base and the beast forest, and then it seemed to break through some shackles, and a childish voice with a crying tone filled the entire sky.
"You bastard? Brother! You said? I can't fly far... There are 30,000 people here——"
…
A3 base.
The people who were sleeping were suddenly awakened by the light outside the window. They saw that the light was ominous scarlet, so they stood up and observed quietly, and then saw a blood-red sun hanging high in the night sky.
Warm, bright, yet beating like a living thing.
"Monster!"
People shouted in fear.
Some people ran out of their homes, trying to escape.
An old man trembled as he picked up the marinated meat hanging on the pole and wanted to take it away, but his son disdained it and threw it on the ground, splashing a layer of dust.
Yuexing City was still bustling with activity. Countless gambling items were crowded with excited gamblers who were obsessed with gambling. They didn't even notice that the dealer had disappeared.
Zhang Deye, who was sitting in a high building, saw the rising blood-red sun and shouted in panic: "Someone come! Someone take me away!"
No one answered. The subordinates were busy grabbing cash and escaping for their lives and didn't care about a boss who was seriously injured and even had difficulty moving...especially because of his extremely bad attitude towards others.
…
“This should be it?”
In a dark and remote alley, Bai Yan pressed his hand on the top of a black-haired boy's head, stroking his chin and talking to himself.
The black-haired boy who was caught wanted to cry but had no tears: "Who are you? I told you I found the wrong people! I don't know you at all..."
Gray-haired Fan Yi stared at him for a while, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said hesitantly, "You are... the child of Dr. Wu from X Research Institute?"
The black-haired boy looked at him blankly. He said, "Yeah, you know me?"
Fan Yi did not reply, but turned to look at Bai Yan and said, "We can't find the boy for now, so why not take him over first? Go to the top."
Bai Yan clasped his hands together and said with a smile, "Okay."
The black-haired boy had a lot of question marks on his head: "No!!"
Just as the three were about to continue arguing, suddenly a dazzling red light shot into this remote and cold alley. It clearly brought warmth, but it made the three people present change their expressions.
Bai Yan couldn't believe it: "What a joke! How could they choose this place——"
Fan Yi stared at the slowly rising blood-red sun, his eyes slightly complicated: "So that's how it is, a man-made god... but it's very incomplete."
Black-haired boy: "What the hell! What the hell! What the hell!"
What's even more shocking is that the forest outside the base is roaring in anger, and countless strange beasts are making deafening roars. They are in turmoil, uneasy and terrified.
Suddenly, accompanied by the piercing sound of the wind, blood-red vines rose from the ground, followed by countless green leaves, as if a huge dragon emerged from the ground and flew towards the huge blood-red sun in the sky.
The slender blood-red vines intertwined, condensed, and finally rolled out soft branches that stretched out to the blood-red sun. The movements were fast but not rough. Instead, they were extremely gentle, as if they were calling out for something.
'A child... a new child.'
The forest is calling.
"I also found a very cute black-haired child earlier... Two children, two new companions..."
'What should I call you? [Sun]? [Life]? '
"I am Forest. Hello, lovely girl..."
…
"[Forest], why do you attack humans?"
The vines reaching towards the blood-red sun paused, as if troubled.
'Only by clearing out the weak and ordinary life can this world enter a higher dimension.'
The blood-red sun was still beating like a living heart, and the thumping sound resounded through the sky.
"So, this world has abandoned humanity... Brother, what should we do?"
The childish voice was filled with tears, as if in great pain, and then the tears suddenly disappeared, and even the beating of the heart became weaker and weaker.
Soon, the sound disappeared.
The next second, the blood-red sun began to fall.
He fell towards the blood-red vines and also towards the A3 base, like a flaming meteorite, destroying everything with extremely terrifying power.
The terrified people on the ground, the restless beasts running away in the forest, the vines trembling wildly as if shouting something...
Everything came to an end after a flash of terrifying red light.
When Chu Xiuyan regained consciousness, the surroundings were in a mess.
He took two S-class psychics from the [Tianxu Team] to look for their captain, but they couldn't find him at all, so they had to use the gray mist to quickly carry them to the base, and then go find the [heart].
but……
System: [It's too late, host. You didn't catch up, and even let yourself die once. ]
Its voice was very serious: [Do you know that if I fail to retrieve your soul in time, you will experience the pain of death yourself! ]
Chu Xiuyan seemed not to have heard what the system said, and looked straight ahead.
The location of the original base has become a huge deep pit, with dark scorched earth, crushed buildings, dark and shrunken humanoid creatures, and the air is filled with all kinds of disgusting smells that make people feel nauseous.
"I……"
A hoarse and weak voice came out of his throat, but after it came out, he realized that he didn't know what to say.
The system tried to comfort him: [Host, don't worry, I won't let you die. And this world is just a large simulation experience hall for you to realize comics. You can even use this place as an amusement park.]
Chu Xiuyan slowly turned his eyes, looked to the side, gestured at the height, and said: "Just now, that guy from the Word Spirit Department was talking to me here. He said that if my identity as an alien is exposed in the future, I can go to him for help..."
He lowered his hand. "The white-haired girl said that their captain would be fine. It's just that he entered the area again, so he couldn't find him..."
But there was nothing beside him, only the dark soil on the ground and the charred corpse whose original appearance could not be seen.
Chu Xiuyan felt like vomiting, and his nose began to feel sour. He walked towards the huge pit step by step, stood on the edge and looked down. Countless, densely packed charred spots pierced his eyes.
“I don’t like this ending…”
He sniffed and repeated to the system again: "I don't like this ending."
"I haven't gone to that delicious marinated meat shop to buy meat yet, and I haven't had time to teach that casino boss a lesson. I haven't even been able to fulfill my promise to Qiu Wei to protect this base..."
“I couldn’t do anything.”
“I don’t even know anything.”
"what do I do……"
"Go home."
Suddenly, a thick black coat covered the top of the head, blocking all the tragic scenes, leaving only a warm darkness.
A familiar voice sounded behind me?
"Even I can't undo this matter? Yunyan, you don't need to take any responsibility, and you don't need to feel uneasy."
“Uncle…?”
Chu Xiuyan tugged at his black coat in confusion, but a hand pressed down on his head. The coat seemed to be a barrier that isolated him from all the pain.
Qiu Wei's voice sounded not far away, "Sorry, I didn't expect it... Fortunately, you are still alive."
Captain Ye was making a fuss nearby: "Ha! You didn't expect this?! You were talking to a kid for no reason? What was he talking about protecting the base, protecting the base, but he ended up running away, ha!"
I seemed to hear Cui Zhiyong's voice, "Then who and who, let's split up into teams and look for any survivors..."
Zhang Chun lowered his voice, as if trying to comfort: "Everyone is here, so let us take care of the rest. By the way, everyone likes the gifts you sent back, especially Cui Zhiyong..."
Being? The person who shouted heard it from afar and shouted at the top of his voice: "What a joke! I don't like it! Remember to give it to me next time? I will give you a full set of pornographic comics!"
Chu Xiuyan's vision was blocked by the black coat, and he could clearly feel that the people around him were carefully taking care of their emotions.
He sniffed and felt his eyes were a little wet.
The hand that held my wrist was tight and warm, as if it was transmitting some power.
"I can save them."
Zhang Chun, who was pulling the boy away, suddenly heard a voice from behind.
At this time, another figure slowly appeared in front of him, with long silver hair, a white robe, and no trace of dirt on his body. The blood crystal flakes still covered his face, making him look particularly noble and cold. Only the corners of his lips that were raised high revealed his happiness and joy when he witnessed this tragic scene.
The chief priest walked towards Zhang Chun.
Zhang Chun held the boy's wrist and looked at him indifferently as he approached.
The boy's words were still echoing behind him.
"Uncle, I don't want you to pick me up under these circumstances. It's too bad. I still prefer sunny weather, so you can play around and have fun with me. Come and visit this base happily."
"So, I'm going to save them."
"I will rescue them."
Zhang Chun looked? He saw the chief priest approaching, but he did not make any move.
The chief priest seemed not to notice them and passed by them, leaving only a faint laugh.
"Then, let's try it."
…
At this time, high in the sky.
A man with long red hair flew over from the north holding a communicator, muttering, "What's going on? Isn't it in the north? How did it suddenly jump to the south... Damn! What happened here?!"
He looked down at the ground in astonishment. There was a huge, terrifying pit. Looking down from a high place, the blackened, charred corpses seemed to be crying silently.
