Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Finale (Part 1)
The step of pretending to break up is crucial. If Chi Nu sees the flaw here, the chances of catching him in the future will be even lower.
Chen Run sat on the sofa, thinking hard for a while, her eyes suddenly wandering. She stammered, "...I have an idea..."
Chi Shuangliu looked at her.
Chen Run scratched his face and said guiltily, "...Do you still remember the statue from before?" People become particularly busy when they are embarrassed. She coughed a few times and said, "It's the statue that Chi Nu used to suppress you before..." Her voice became softer and softer as she spoke.
Chi Shuangliu raised his eyebrows: "Is it the statue on which you carved my name and tried to use it to seal me?" After Chen Run crushed his heart, he controlled her and forcibly took her away. Later, after she was freed from his control, she used the statue to seal Chi Shuangliu without hesitation - of course, she failed in the end.
That experience wasn't a pleasant one for either of them. Chen Run glanced around, not daring to look at him. "I was thinking of pretending to seal you, so that Chi Nu would believe that we were really at loggerheads and that you were truly suppressed. That way, he would dare to attack me, and we would have a chance to destroy him."
But this method was not very friendly to Chi Shuangliu. Whether it was the thousands of years he was suppressed by Chi Nu, or the short time he was suppressed by her using the statue, they were all very bad memories.
She coughed dryly: "If you don't want to, let's think of something else..."
"I do."
Chi Shuangliu had no intention of bringing up the past with her. He just snorted lightly and flipped his palm. A statue of a god covered with fine cracks appeared in his palm.
He glanced at the cracks on the statue and said, "You'd better pray for success once, otherwise it will be completely unusable." He casually threw the statue to Chen Run and said, "Let's start now."
"Now?" Fortunately, Chen Run wasn't one to hesitate, and hurriedly took it. "Then I'll greet Yan Xunqing and the patrol team first."
After she finished communicating with the patrol team, she cut her finger and carefully wrote Chi Shuangliu's name on the already dilapidated statue.
Starting from his feet, Chi Shuangliu gradually turned into a hard and cold stone statue.
Even though it was part of the plan, and even though the stone statue's seal on him was already minimal, it was still cruel to watch his lover turn into a stone statue. Shen Run only took a glance and subconsciously turned his head away.
Suddenly, her body tensed, and Chi Shuangliu embraced her with one of his still movable arms.
He whispered in her ear, "The key to successfully sealing this statue lies in its name. A name signifies recognition of this identity and provides an anchor in the world. You are the only one in this world who can seal me. Do you know why?"
Chen Run raised his eyes and looked at him puzzledly
"You are my only anchor."
He bent down and kissed her cheek, his movements gentle and pious, without a hint of ambiguity.
He continued the kissing motion and completely turned into a cold and hard stone statue.
Chen Run was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, wiped his eyes, and lowered his head to call the patrol team.
As agreed before, the patrol team pulled the stone statue of Chi Shuangliu around the street and finally took it back to the patrol team's special warehouse.
Since Chi Nu dared to instigate Chen Run and Chi Shuangliu to become enemies, he would definitely pay attention to the changes in their relationship. Chen Run believed that he would soon know that Chi Shuangliu was sealed, but according to his cautious character, he would definitely find a way to verify whether Chi Shuangliu was really sealed.
In the next few days, in order to act out the script of falling out with his lover, Chen Run pretended to be depressed and took a few days off at home. After the holiday, he went to work as usual and handled his work as if nothing had happened.
She had just arrived at work today when she encountered a very difficult case: "...You mean, someone reported that their neighborhood was haunted?"
Chen Run thought someone was joking about making a false report and bared his teeth. "Our patrol team can't handle this matter. How about transferring it to a religious place? I think Longhua Temple is a good choice."
Several patrol officers in charge of the case looked at each other in confusion. Yan Ning, who was more experienced, shook his head slightly and said, "It must have been done by a superpower."
She flipped through the information and said, "This incident started with a conflict between a tenant and the landlord. The tenant was a relatively unknown director who specialized in supernatural and bizarre stories. If I'm not mistaken, he possesses some ability to bring horror films to life, probably between A and B levels. To exact revenge on the landlord, the tenant deliberately used this ability to unleash unrest throughout the entire neighborhood."
Chen Run stood up directly: "Okay, then let's arrest him directly."
"It's not that simple," Yan Ning waved his hand. "Psychic abilities are extremely rare, even rarer than those related to space and time. There are only a dozen or so recorded cases worldwide. Firstly, we lack experience in dealing with such abilities, and secondly, they are quite subjective, making it difficult to know where to begin. They are no easier to deal with than an S-rank expert. Fortunately, his level is not high, and he has no intention of harming anyone. Only a dozen residents went to see a psychologist because they were too frightened. Otherwise, there would have been a real mess."
She looked down at her watch and said, "This type of ability also has a time limit. Let's go there at night and see if we can find a way to deal with it."
By the time the company bus arrived at the scene, it was already completely dark. Several patrol team members were divided into groups of two and went to different buildings to check the situation.
This residential complex is a well-known wealthy area in Shanghai, and is often used by netizens to make jokes online. I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but as soon as Chen Run stepped into the building, he felt that the temperature dropped by several degrees. The lobby of the building was gloomy and not a single light could penetrate.
The elevator door closed in front of me, and the last signal on my phone disappeared completely. The elevator shook ominously a few times, then began to rise steadily.
Chen Run was looking up at the changes in the floor, but suddenly she felt her shoulders sink and the back of her neck itch, as if something was brushing against her neck gently.
She looked back vigilantly, but there was nothing behind her except the auxiliary psychic team members with innocent faces.
She withdrew her gaze and watched the floor continue to rise. Suddenly, the overload alarm sounded "beep beep", piercing the originally quiet elevator room.
This elevator is a high-end brand imported from Germany. It has a solid structure, a spacious interior, and a maximum carrying capacity of twenty people. Now there are only her and her subordinate in the elevator, so how could the overload alarm be issued?
Shen Run was slightly stunned.
Suddenly, a team member's voice, tinged with fear, came from behind: "Captain, Captain..."
Chen Run turned her head and saw the team member's finger tremblingly pointing at the mirror-like inner wall of the elevator. She looked in the direction of the team member's finger.
Her shadow was reflected on the inner wall. She was standing in the middle of the spacious elevator, and above her shoulders... there was a pair of feet.
Chen Run continued to look upwards along the legs, and saw that above the monster's waist, there were twenty or thirty densely packed half-bodies, some male, some female, some old, some young, with lifeless eyes filled with white film, lowering their heads and staring at her.
Chen Run: “…”
She was furious: "Isn't it a bit too much for twenty or thirty of you to step on me? Do you have any manners at all? You can't just grab a sheep and pluck it hard."
Fortunately, she is a person with special abilities. If she were an ordinary person, she would have been trampled to death long ago.
The team members were furious: "Is this the time to care about the quality of citizens?!"
The team member she was working with was a young girl who had just been admitted through the entrance exam. Her special ability was an auxiliary one with little combat effectiveness. She turned pale with fright when she saw such a horrifying scene.
Chen Run felt okay. After all, no matter how evil these things were, they were not as evil as Chi Shuangliu. She thought about it and tried to release some lightning, but the monsters on her shoulders did not move. In the reflection of the mirror, it could be seen that they had no reaction and were still staring at Chen Run.
If it wasn't a critical moment, Shen Run didn't want to switch to half-body mode, otherwise it would easily hurt ordinary people in the building. She snapped her fingers, and dense mycelium immediately grew on her body.
The mycelium climbed upwards in a tangled manner. Shen Run looked at the mirror and saw that the mycelium was growing along the monster's ankles - this trick worked.
She was about to let the mycelium penetrate into the monster's body and turn them into nutrients for the mycelium when she saw the image in the mirror suddenly blur, like an old TV that suddenly jammed. The monster that was originally standing on her suddenly disappeared.
She looked around the elevator and didn't see a single hair of the monster. It just disappeared without any logic.
Shen Run frowned.
No wonder it is said that the psychic type is difficult to deal with. No matter how strong or weak the abilities of other psychics are, there are patterns to follow. Only the psychic type has no logic and is completely idealistic.
While she was thinking, the elevator suddenly stopped and the door opened abruptly.
The team members breathed a sigh of relief: "We're finally here." Then they got out of the elevator impatiently.
Shen Run didn't rush out of the elevator until the team members outside exclaimed, "What is this place?"
She frowned and followed him out.
Instead of reaching the 14th floor, which they were supposed to go to, they came to what seemed to be the rooftop terrace. The space was empty, with paint buckets, steel pipes and other tools left by the renovation workers scattered on the ground.
The night wind was howling and it was pitch black - it looked like a perfect location for shooting a horror movie.
The elevator door closed completely, the display screen flickered, and then went completely black. The team member pressed the button several times, but the elevator didn't respond. She looked around and found that there was no stairwell. She began to panic: "We can't get down, Captain, what should we do?"
Shen Run looked at her: "What do you say?"
The team walked around the rooftop and looked down along the fence: "We have no choice but to jump down."
The building was twenty-one stories high, so her suggestion sounded ridiculous, but in fact, Chen Run was a super S-level psychic, and the team members were auxiliary psychics with speed and mobility, so jumping down was not difficult for them.
Chen Run also walked to the railing and looked down. The high-rise building was pitch black all around. It was like an isolated island trapped in the darkness. Thick fog was surging in the darkness, as if a giant beast was lurking in the darkness and breathing.
She sighed.
The team member looked at her and asked awkwardly, "Captain, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this proposal?"
"Nothing," Shen Run shook his head. "I was just wondering if you had ever been an actor in a previous life."
She looked at her: "What do you think? Chi Nu."
A hint of surprise flashed across Chi Nu's eyes, but she soon smiled again, even feeling like joking with her: "I've been an actor in several lifetimes, and a movie star in another."
He smiled, chatting casually like old friends: "How did you tell that?"
Chen Run pointed to the completely black elevator screen and said, "We have a rule that no one is allowed to act without the captain's permission. Xiao Zhao can't run out of the elevator without permission."
Chi Nu smiled casually and put on a weak and frightened expression: "Maybe I'm just too scared."
"Impossible! Xiao Zhao is still on probation. Serious violations of the rules could lead to expulsion." She said quietly, "Do you know how difficult it is to pass the exam?"
Her face darkened slightly: "Where did you take Xiao Zhao?"
"Don't worry," Chi Nu even gave her a comforting smile: "I didn't touch her. She is still safe and sound at home."
He was somewhat helpless: "Psychic abilities are a good cover-up. Many things that are wrong can be deceived by the word idealism. I originally wanted to trick you into jumping into the space, but you have really grown a lot compared to before."
"But you're still not alert enough." He raised his hand and pointed to the sky. A vortex like a black hole appeared in the sky. He smiled and said, "Go in. It's time to return what you stole from me."
He thought for a moment, then added, "Of course, if you are willing to submit, I can give you a chance to stand by my side and become my beloved or... my wife."
He asked with a smile: "How about it? Do you want to consider it?"
Chen Run instinctively replied, "...Why? Because you're old and don't speak the truth?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately felt an indescribably strong suction force. She switched to demigod form without hesitation. Seven or eight tentacles clung tightly to the rooftop, and the suction cups tightly adhered to the solid building.
Chi Nu watched her struggle calmly: "It's useless. Your body is still in its infancy. It will take a long time for you to gain the power of a god."
"Then your lofty yet pathetic sense of morality ultimately harmed you. If you hadn't sealed Chi Shuangliu with your own hands, you wouldn't have ended up like this. Without him, who would you be?"
He was clearly stalling for time with his words. With a slightly sarcastic tone, he shook his head and sighed, "But the even more tragic one is Chi Shuangliu. As an immortal god, he not only fell in love with a human who didn't love him back, but was also sealed away by the very human he loved most."
Chen Run was not happy to hear this, so he used one of his tentacle to slap him in the face, sending him flying.
She rolled her eyes: "It hurts like I'm spanking someone, do you feel it?"
Chi Nu was immediately pulled back to her original form, her long silver hair flowing down. He gathered her hair casually and smiled without any smile: "Xiao Run, as a loser, it is not wise to provoke."
As he spoke, he raised his hand. The black hole continued to expand and the suction increased exponentially. Chen Run even felt the huge force as if his skin and flesh were peeling off.
Suddenly, a reassuring resistance appeared between Shen Run and the black hole, firmly blocking the black hole's suction.
Chi Shuangliu stepped on a piece of moonlight, his posture was cool, but his expression was unusually gloomy: "Who said she doesn't love me?"
Chen Run: "..." Chi Shuangliu's focus is also...
After Chi Shuangliu showed up, Chi Nu's pupils shrank suddenly, and the smile on her face completely disappeared: "Why are you here?!"
The smile wouldn't disappear, it would only shift. Chi Shuangliu chuckled mockingly, not wanting to miss any chance to strike back at his former rival. "Of course it's because she loves me enough. You don't really think she'll be bewitched by a few words from you, do you?"
What he said was just like the god who hid in the space a few days ago because he was afraid of being dumped and didn't dare to face the reality was not him.
Chi Nu's face was pale, her breathing was rapid, and she spoke at double speed: "Superpowers are the curse you brought upon humanity. It was you who ushered in the era of superpower turmoil. You don't really think she doesn't mind this, do you? Don't forget, she's on the patrol team now! Do you really think her feelings for you are that deep? She's just using you to get rid of me. Once you've lost your usefulness, she'll ruthlessly abandon you and do everything she can to deal with you!"
He had a knack for always hitting the mark when sowing discord. His words were so logical that even Shen Run felt uneasy. He subconsciously turned to look at Chi Shuangliu and opened his mouth to explain, "I didn't..."
Chi Shuangliu raised his eyebrows again, his tone arrogant and proud: "According to what you said, if I am always useful, will she never abandon me?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and the black hole behind him continued to collapse and compress, eventually becoming an inconspicuous miniature black hole hanging in his palm.
Chi Nu: "..."
He felt deeply powerless and had no way of communicating with his love-struck brain.
Fortunately, Chi Nu was not without a backup plan. He suddenly tore open his shirt and saw a grotesque and distorted face parasitic on his chest and abdomen.
He raised his hand and pressed lightly on his abdomen. The face quickly opened its eyes and looked up at the sky.
The next moment, several arms grew out from his chest and abdomen. The arms stretched outward and forcibly cut Chi Nu open from the chest and abdomen, as if something was trying to crawl out of his body.
But Chi Nu was not at all flustered, instead she grinned.
He dipped his fingers in his own blood and devoutly drew an extremely complex and twisted rune between his eyebrows.
At the moment the rune was completed, it was as if a huge eye passed through the boundless universe and the stars, and its gaze fell on the earth from afar.
At this moment, all life forms on Earth felt a palpitation and panic that was indescribable in words. All intelligent life even subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the sky, as if they saw a huge eye.
They were clearly less than twenty meters away from Chi Nu, but it seemed as if they were no longer in the same time and space. No matter how hard they tried, they could not get close to Chi Nu.
The more powerful the psychic, the greater the impact. Shen Run's head buzzed and blood even came out of his ears and nose.
Since she acquired her new body, there were few things on Earth that could frighten her, but at that moment, she instinctively began to fear: "...What happened?"
Chi Shuangliu tried to stop Chi Nu, but he also failed. At this moment, it seemed that Chi Nu had evolved into a god.
He landed next to Chen Run, his expression serious for the first time: "He is using his body as a medium to summon Aletoya."
Chi Nu prepared two plans for herself to become a god.
The first set is a conservative route. He plans to take back his own authority from Chen Run and complete the ceremony of becoming a god.
The second plan is more radical and quite dangerous. He devoured Dr. Jiang's ability and possessed the ability to summon the Outer God Aletoya. However, Dr. Jiang can only invite the projection to descend, while his strength and mental strength are much stronger than Dr. Jiang. He can let the real Outer God descend here, and then use his special abilities to find a way to parasitize the Outer God, waiting for an opportunity to seize the throne and eventually become a true god. However, the probability of success of the second plan is less than 10%. Even if it succeeds, he will most likely become an immortal but unconscious and unable to think chaotic monster.
But under the powerful pressure of Chi Shuangliu, he chose the second plan without hesitation and let the outer god Aletoya come to the earth!
Shen Run's heart sank little by little. She suppressed her discomfort and asked, "What will happen if Aletoa comes?"
The human-shaped Chi Shuangliu has already caused chaos on Earth. I really can’t imagine what it would be like if the complete form of the Outer God descended.
Sure enough, Chi Shuangliu gave her the answer she least wanted to hear: "...This is a three-dimensional universe. It cannot withstand the complete form of a higher-dimensional god. Everything on this planet will disappear."
Although his dimension is higher than Aletoa, his abilities have never been fully recovered, and he cannot guarantee that he will win when facing a completely out-of-body god. Even if he can win, by the time Aletoa descends, the earth will be almost destroyed.
Of course, he could take Chen Run to the universe to avoid it and find other suitable planets to live on, but she would definitely not be able to accept such an ending.
Sure enough, when Shen Run heard his words, his whole face changed, and he rushed towards Chi Nu without hesitation.
But before she could get close, she was bounced back by an invisible barrier. If Chi Shuangliu hadn't rescued her, she would have been bounced several miles away.
At this moment, Chi Nu had turned into a huge ball of light, and arms continuously emerged from the ball of light.
Shen Run was so anxious that he was spinning in circles: "What should I do? I can't really let him summon the Outer Gods to Earth, can I?"
Chi Shuangliu paused, his expression suddenly cold, he even turned his face away: "There is no other way."
Of course, Chen Run believed his words without a doubt. Since Chi Shuangliu said there was no way, then there must be really no way.
Her heart suddenly turned cold, and she gritted her teeth, preparing to self-destruct to buy time. The self-destruction of a demigod body was no small matter, and there was a chance that it could block the channel for the arrival of the outer gods - anyway, she had a part of Chi Nu's life and the power of reincarnation. With Chi Shuangliu around, she should still be able to reincarnate... right?
She didn't even have time to think too much. Just as she was about to take action, she felt her shoulders sink and Chi Shuangliu grabbed her shoulders.
After he said those words to Chen Run, he fell silent for a rare time, even seeming a little indifferent.
Seeing that Shen Run was about to give up this body, he finally reacted. He used his body to stop her: "...There is a way."
He paused, his face expressionless. "Forcefully transfer Chi Nu to a place far away from Earth, and let Aletoa descend elsewhere in the universe, so that Earth will not be affected."
He lowered his eyes: "I'll do it."
In this world, he is the only one who can teleport Chi Nu to the distant universe - but selfishly, he is not willing to make such a sacrifice for mankind. Anyway, as long as he and Shen Run are fine, what does other people or life forms have to do with him?
First, he hadn't fully recovered yet, so he didn't have a 100% chance of defeating Aletoa. Second, the universe was equally dangerous to him, as there were other Outer Gods within it. Therefore, he wanted to wait until his strength was fully restored before slowly exploring the outer worlds. Finally, once he was far away from this universe and this space, he wasn't sure if he could return safely.
Out of selfishness, he did not tell Shen Run about this method, and even prepared to take Shen Run to transfer.
But when he saw that she was ready to sacrifice herself, love finally overcame selfishness.
He turned around and looked at her one last time: "I hope that billions of years later, you and I can meet again."
Then, while she was still unconscious, he threw her off the top floor.
In the last second before falling, Chen Run saw the space begin to vibrate and distort, saw everything on the top floor begin to slowly disappear, and saw his lover turn into a twinkling meteor in the sky.
With a 'bang', she hit the ground heavily.
