Chapter 83
Above the black and white central city, Messiah looked out at the scarred Earth and for the first time felt helpless.
After humans in this world are transformed into vampires, they will lose their previous emotions, and their personalities and thinking will become distorted.
He can turn vampires back into humans, restore the feelings and memories of the ghost king Nightwing, save humans who are raised and hunted as livestock by vampires, and return half of the land ruled by the vampire kingdom to humans.
But this cannot erase the harm vampires have done to humans.
Those killed by vampires will not come back, the remaining pain and fear in the hearts of humans raised as livestock will not disappear, and vampires who turn back into humans will not be able to accept the harm they have caused to humans and the earth.
The same goes for the regime, Paradise Island, and Atlantis. The living will suffer, and the dead will never be saved.
Messiah silently passed by a sobbing old woman who had lost her only son in the war, and also passed by a high school student with a white flower pinned on his chest who was striding towards the regime's conscription office. The high school student had lost his parents in the war, and he also wanted to join the regime's super-powered force in order to avenge his parents.
The statue of the Flash is smiling. The deceased speedster cannot see that his city is falling step by step, and Central City, which misses the speedster, is also dying bit by bit.
Messiah gazed upon the black and white Central City and the humans living in sorrow and pain.
He thought, no matter what the reason, he must find the perfect way to save the earth and mankind, stop the chaotic war, and save this doomed world.
The white cloak automatically wrapped around Messiah's body. Messiah put on his hood and walked straight into the crowd.
Points of pale golden light floated around the Messiah, dispersing as he walked, immersing themselves in the bodies of the pedestrians along the road. It was as if a gentle, warm breeze brushed across their cloaks, a warm and holy presence dispelling the shadows within them, bringing an inexplicable calm to their oppressive moods.
Wherever the Messiah went, the weeping people inexplicably stopped crying.
A spatial crack opened silently, and Messiah's figure disappeared on the road without attracting anyone's attention.
With just one step, Messiah seemed to have entered another world, from the sunny Central City to the dark and cloudy Gotham.
Gotham, the so-called "capital" of the vampire kingdom, is also where the ghost king Nightwing lives.
Messiah felt that only by actual contact could he know how to save mankind, so he took the initiative to come to the vampire kingdom where humans were in the most miserable situation.
In the vampire kingdom, humans are raised by vampires as livestock. They are all food for vampires. The only difference is that some "livestock" are raised in concentrated pastures, some "livestock" are raised in the wild, and some free-range "livestock" have the hope of breaking away from their livestock status and evolving into "humans".
If it is to be saved, the Vampire Kingdom must be the first priority.
Messiah looked at the strange yet familiar Gotham street scene and unconsciously pursed his lips.
The sky of Gotham was oppressively covered with dark clouds, and the sunlight was completely blocked by the dark clouds that covered the sky. It was clearly daytime, but it was no different from night.
The air was filled with the smell of blood, and dark red stains of splattered and dried blood could be seen everywhere on the roadside. There were also several mummified human corpses lying in the alley, all of their blood sucked out.
There were no signs of pedestrians on the street, but Messiah was keenly aware of the sight. He looked up and saw that the curtains on the windows of the apartment were tightly drawn. Through the gaps in the curtains, he could see pairs of eyes observing him nervously.
Those are ordinary people living in Gotham. The reason they are not raised in a concentrated area by vampires is that the ghost king Nightwing likes to hunt humans himself and does not like to eat raised "poultry".
The Messiah's gaze penetrated the curtains, and the faces of the people hiding behind the curtains were filled with fear and panic.
…They thought he was a vampire out to hunt humans.
Messiah realized this the first time he saw these people, and he sighed silently.
"Don't be afraid." Messiah's voice was not loud, but it penetrated the distance and accurately entered the ears of everyone who was watching him. He said calmly and gently, "I am not a vampire, I am human."
"I'm here to save you."
No one said a word, and those hiding behind the curtains became even more nervous after learning that the Messiah was a human.
“…Run.”
Suddenly, a tiny, mosquito-like voice rang out. The owner of that voice wasn't sure if Messiah could hear her, but it took all her courage to say this: "You can't beat a vampire."
Tears welled up in the girl's eyes. There had been superheroes who had wanted to come to the vampire kingdom to rescue them, but the result was...
"Even Superboy was killed by them so easily. You can't win."
Superboy is dead?
Messiah was stunned for a moment. Kryptonians were considered the most powerful beings on Earth. Even Superboy could be easily killed by vampires. The regime and the vampire kingdom should not be so evenly matched.
You know, the highest combat power of the regime is also Kryptonian. Although the strength of the Supreme Leader is stronger than Superboy, it is not to the point of crushing him.
Messiah's intuition told him that he seemed to have found the reason why the regime and the vampire kingdom went to war, and this reason was by no means as noble as the Supreme Leader claimed.
Messiah needs to know the process of Superboy's death. According to his previous habit, he has directly invaded the girl's brain to search for related memories, but the experience of the second round tells Messiah that this behavior of disregarding other people's wishes and disrespecting other people's ideas is wrong.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, "Can I check your memory? I want to know the cause of Superboy's death."
The girl was stunned for a moment, but nodded indifferently. She was treated like an animal without any personality by the vampires, so she didn't care about having her memory checked.
But why hadn't she seen the boy with the white hood on the news before? Was he really the superhero she thought he was...?
The power of the Messiah gently entered the girl's brain and quickly found memories related to Superboy Connor.
Superboy smiled brightly and waved to the human he was protecting. He said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, I will get you out."
He easily shot through the vampire's head with his heat vision, his movements looked effortless, but his pale face revealed his true condition.
The girl mixed in the crowd and prayed nervously for Superboy.
Under a dark, overcast sky, Superboy quickly battled the vampires until the superheroes, who were once members of the Justice League, arrived.
Then there was blood all over the place.
Superboy...Superboy, he—was torn in half by the vampires.
Ghost King Nightwing approached with an expressionless face, gently licked the blood splattered by Superboy, and said contemptuously: "Kryptonian? Nothing more than that."
Superboy refused to join the Supreme Leader's regime, but he still wanted to protect the people, so he answered the calls for help from those hunted by vampires and entered the vampire kingdom.
Messiah raised his head slowly. In the sky were the same black clouds as in the girl's memory. In the sky over the half of the land ruled by the vampire kingdom, there were also the same black clouds.
I see.
……I see.
Messiah discovered the real reason why the vampire kingdom and the regime went to war.
Vampires hate sunlight, so they block out the sun above their territory, while Kryptonians' power comes from yellow sunlight, and they need the sun to shine on their territory all year round.
The Ghost King who longs to block out all the sunlight on Earth VS the Supreme Leader who wishes to be illuminated by the yellow sun at all times. These two naturally opposing parties will naturally fight to the death.
Messiah looked at the sky covered with dark clouds. If he wanted to stop the war between the Vampire Kingdom and the regime, he had to solve this problem.
"Thank you." Messiah said softly.
Then, he walked into the depths of Gotham without hesitation.
But before leaving, Messiah moved his fingers, and an invisible film covered the surrounding buildings where humans lived, eliminating their presence.
As long as they don't actively provoke the vampires, the power that the Messiah has attached to them will make the vampires ignore their existence.
Although this could not completely save them, at least they would not die before he came up with a solution.
In the very center of Gotham, Wayne Tower stands tall and overlooks the entire city. This building that once belonged to Bruce Wayne has become the residence of the Vampire King.
It is also the destination of the Messiah's journey.
Messiah's unconcealed appearance attracted the attention of a vampire who was looking for prey on the roadside. The vampire sniffed his nose, and the particularly tempting sweet smell made his eyes light up.
The young man in white robe walked calmly on the road, seemingly unaware of the vampire whose eyes had lit up scarlet.
The next second, the vampire pounced on the white-robed boy with a grin on his face, who had no sense of danger.
The rippling golden film automatically lit up, isolating the white-robed boy from the vampire with bared fangs. The vampire was stunned and fixed in mid-air by the film that spread over his body, and was forced to open his body to the white-robed boy.
Messiah slowly raised his head and stared at the body structure of the vampire he had pinned down, his golden eyes fixed on the vampire's brain.
A light black smoke lingered over the vampire's brain.
Very familiar, very familiar.
Messiah looked at the black smoke in the vampire's brain and instantly recognized that it was the substance emitted by the bat phantom that covered the earth.
Besides that...
The vampire's appearance was also familiar.
Messiah looked at the familiar face of the vampire. This was the owner of an ice cream shop in Gotham. In the last world, he often visited that shop with Dick and Jason. The owner always looked at them with a smile and then gave them super-large portions of ice cream that were taller than a hill.
"This is a gift for the little hero who protects Gotham," said the shop owner.
The vampire struggled with a ferocious expression, his scarlet eyes fixed on Messiah: "I will suck all your blood, and then tear you apart bit by bit!"
"No, I will lock you up and torture you! How dare you hurt a noble vampire!"
There was no trace of his former kindness on the vampire's hideous face. His mind had been completely distorted the moment he became a vampire.
Messiah stared into the black smoke in the vampire's brain. That was it.
It is this that distorts the vampire's mind, which is why the vampire becomes so cruel and ruthless.
【Author’s words】
I finally finished writing it after rushing so hard. I almost thought I couldn't catch up.
I went to the toilet in the afternoon and the door handle broke, trapping me in the toilet [cracked][cracked] It was 30 degrees Celsius, and the toilet was stuffy and hot. My friend and I screamed through the door.
I called the maintenance worker urgently. Luckily, I live with my friend, otherwise the maintenance worker would have to pick the lock before he could get in.
Finally, the maintenance worker used a card... a real card! He pried open the toilet door! It turns out that unlocking with a card is real. XHS was right. If I had known earlier, I would have asked my friend to get a card to help me out. [Breaking down][Breaking down]
After getting out of trouble, the only feeling I have is that it’s great to have air conditioning. I love air conditioning, I can’t live without it [rainbow fart] Air conditioning, air conditioning, I will always support you ah ah ah ah
When I posted the leave note in the afternoon, my CP complained that it was so outrageous that readers could believe it. I also thought it was a scheming pigeon. +1
Please understand, dear readers! I was really locked in the toilet. Such a dramatic thing really happened [crack][crack] If you are curious, you can go to my WeChat and take a look. Unfortunately, WeChat can only post long videos, and cannot show you the heroic figure of the maintenance master using a card to open the door in two seconds [fist]
Gay friend's comment: Last time it was a security door, this time it's a toilet door, otherwise don't install doors in your home in the future
I will not close the door when I go to the toilet (×)
