Chapter 420 439. “You are afraid.”
After a long time, the circuit in Liancheng stopped working, and its function had been fulfilled.
A figure stood on the stopped circuit. It was a woman who looked quite young. At this moment, the scarlet lines on the circuit were shrinking with her as the center.
It was as if even the last bit of energy was being guided into her body through this circuit.
When the scarlet on the return path was completely devoured, the red light covering the Lotus City suddenly disappeared, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining, but it also seemed as if something even more terrifying had descended.
On the outskirts of Liancheng, a young man is constantly fleeing.
For some reason, when the sky of Liancheng was still red, he was completely unable to find the way out of the city, as if he was trapped in a ghost wall. Now that the red light disappeared, he had to leave here immediately.
He has accomplished his goal, and now he has to leave here and survive before anything happens.
The underground circuit was just an appetizer. He was sure that if everything he had done was exposed, he would have no chance of survival.
hero?
Who is willing to risk his life to be a hero? He doesn't want to anyway.
If everything he had was not in the hands of [Gods Heavy Industry], how could he have been so obedient as to do such an extremely dangerous thing?
It was so unlucky. Why did it have to be him? His affinity with the [Cup] attribute was different from that of ordinary people, so he was caught and subjected to those inhumane experiments, which happened to be successful.
But after those guys did those cruel things to him, they still told him passionately that the world would thank him. What's the point of him asking the world for gratitude?
He must survive!
The boy's desire to survive was unusually strong, which might be one of the reasons why he was able to survive to the end among many experiments.
The human experiments conducted by [Heavy Industries of the Gods] were definitely not gentle, which led to the boy developing a twisted hatred towards [Cup]. He believed that [Cup] was the culprit that caused him to suffer these disasters.
Therefore, when he walked to the city gate and saw the convoy that was waiting to pick him up, the young man showed a slightly strange smile on his face: "That's great, that's great"
Before he could finish his next words, a gentle female voice came from beside him, as if it was someone who was traveling with him, and she naturally took up the conversation.
"What's so good?"
The sudden sound made the young man stop in his tracks, and the distorted expression on his face froze for a moment. Then, he turned his head stiffly and looked to the side. Then, he saw a gentle but malicious look smiling at him.
The boy did not answer her question, but ran straight towards the convoy the next moment. He thought that the person who would pick him up would protect him!
He is an important test subject!
But the next moment after he took a step, the boy, although still running, began to fall apart. His whole body turned into streams of blood at a speed visible to the naked eye and then flowed into the body of the person who was talking to him, like bloody straws.
In just two or three seconds, the living person, who was still running, disappeared like sand in an hourglass.
The surroundings became quiet again. The once bustling big city was now just a cold and silent steel jungle. The whole city had stopped breathing.
The wind carrying yellow sand blew through the convoy. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that the convoy was just like the huge city in front of it, and there was no life in it anymore.
The woman who had just killed the young man seemed to be planning to go out, but when she just reached the edge of the city, a golden spear fell from the sky like a streaking lightning, and instantly pierced the woman's toes.
If she hadn't pulled back a little, the golden spear would have pierced through her instep.
The golden spear exuded a strong aura, and tiny lightning was attached to the slender and sharp spear. It dissipated into the air three seconds after it missed the target.
At the moment when the woman's attention was attracted by the spear, a chain-like line that was several times weaker than the spear and completely inconspicuous quietly moved to the woman's feet, and then gently climbed up the woman's body.
The golden spear like lightning was obviously a warning to the woman, warning her not to leave Lotus City.
The woman raised her head and looked directly at the "shackles" that had been prepared in the sky, and a hint of sarcasm and ridicule appeared in her pupils that seemed to be cast in blood.
Her expression seemed to have angered someone, and the [rules] operating in the sky suddenly accelerated. Then, dense golden spears were thrown down from the sky by supernatural forces like lightning, as if it were a divine punishment.
The golden spear was instantly in front of her eyes. The woman's figure moved and became transparent in an instant, as if she was about to disappear from the real world. However, the next moment, a golden chain suddenly rose from the ground of Liancheng, biting the woman's ankle like a long-dormant poisonous snake, and instantly wrapped its "body" around her left ankle.
Then in an instant, her originally translucent body solidified and she was pulled back to the real world.
At this moment, the woman's face turned gloomy. She seemed not to like to hide her emotions, or rather, she disdained to hide her current mood. When her mood became bad, her bright red eyes, as if blood was flowing in them, would become gloomy and violent, as if all the negative emotions in the world were infused into them.
But she was not surprised that those people would resort to such despicable means.
"You're afraid."
She just whispered this sentence, but the next moment, there was a violent thunder in the sky, as if the gods were angry!
At this moment, countless mortals covered their ears in pain and looked up at the sky in panic, not understanding why thunder suddenly sounded in the clear sky, and it was such a violent thunder that seemed as if the heaven and earth were shaking.
"You're worried."
"You are afraid."
"Afraid that I would return to Mansu."
The woman's words came one after another, and each one accelerated the operation of the rules in the sky. The collision of rules produced thunder in broad daylight. The already clear sky was now even cloudless, and the murderous intent of the sky towards her became more and more obvious.
However, the golden chain on her left calf was like a real shackle, binding her to the real world.
She thought that in terms of despicableness, those who considered themselves to be righteous were not even a little bit better than her.
Locking her in the real world doesn't mean that you don't care about the life and death of the real world?
They just don't want her to snatch away their chance to ascend. As for the life and death of those ordinary lives?
That doesn't matter.
midnight.
Xu Zhi slowly opened his eyes.
She couldn't quite tell how much time had passed in the outside world, but she thought, it shouldn't be that long?
Because her understanding this time was unusually smooth, she didn't know what happened, but it seemed that some of the obstacles that should have existed also disappeared in this understanding.
She stopped not because she was exhausted, but because she had realized that she had reached the end.
The only thing left in the entire midnight rules that was most important to her was the ending. If she could understand the symbols at the end, she would be able to master the rules of midnight and leave midnight and return to the real world.
But before that, she needs to get her form back to peak form.
