Bang, bang, bang, the cameras exploded faster and faster. If the confrontation between Zhu Ning and the Resuscitation Society was regarded as a chess game, Su He had already made a move first. Black data flowed rapidly in Zhu Ning's eyes, and several different possibilities unfolded before her eyes. She did many things at the same time, the first of which was to look for Liu Niannian.
Liu Niannian has newly awakened power, and Zhu Ning cannot guess her position. Given Liu Niannian's experience, it is normal for her to choose to join Su He to destroy the world.
Zhu Ning was just trying to control the situation from a rational perspective and not let Liu Niannian become his enemy.
The Revival Society would intentionally create a blind spot for Zhu Ning's vision. Of course, they couldn't destroy all the cameras. As long as the key parts were covered, it was equivalent to some information being unable to be fully grasped. Su He's goal was to break Zhu Ning's "omniscience and omnipotence" state.
The area most severely damaged by the fall of the Kingdom of God was the second district directly below. Even if the fall of the Kingdom of God was like a "feather", that was still a metaphor. A behemoth weighing tens of millions of tons landed, and most of the buildings in the second district, not to mention the cameras, were shattered.
The main buildings of the Kingdom of God are more solid, barely maintaining the shape of an island, as if someone dropped a plate hard, and the plate did not completely break after landing, but had several cracks.
The cracks on the plate, converted into the real world, would be an abyss tens of meters long, with several corpses stuck in the cracks.
Zhu Ning entered the venue controlling a remote-controlled camera. It was a device she had used before. When she was in Area 103, she would carry this kind of bee-sized reconnaissance aircraft with her. Now she was the one controlling the remote control.
However, there are very few usable devices nearby, only thirty-nine in total.
The area where the Kingdom of God crashed was filled with smoke. This was a standard disaster scene. Under normal circumstances, the search and rescue process should have been initiated. Unfortunately, no organization claimed responsibility for this and immediately activated the search and rescue team.
The people of God's Kingdom are all natural persons. Zhu Ning remembered what Song Zhizhang once said: if God's Kingdom falls one day, when first-class citizens and citizens of other levels face the same disaster, the fragile people of God's Kingdom will definitely be the first to die.
After the Kingdom of God fell, no one even wanted to enter to survey the situation.
Zhu Ning's vision was blurry, after all, she was not there in person, and her experience was difficult to describe to others. It was like having thirty-nine eyes open at the same time, but walking through the fog.
The ruins stirred up dust and smoke dozens of meters high. Black smoke filled the air in several places due to the explosion of some equipment. Corpses were everywhere. Helpless wails were heard sporadically, and terrified cries pierced the gray curtain.
Some people's heads were smashed by steel bars and concrete, some people's bodies were broken in half, and some first-class citizens entered the refuge of the Kingdom of God. These were the ones who had no time to escape and were stranded on the ground.
The land of the Kingdom of God was soaked in blood, and the remains of buildings were fused with human limbs. If the ruins of the Kingdom of God were viewed as a whole, it looked like a newly grown monster, a monster created by Zhu Ning and Liu Niannian together.
In a sense, this was Zhu Ning's first time "setting foot" on the land of God's kingdom, which was now like hell.
Whether one is a citizen of God's kingdom or an ordinary person, death is death, and everything is equal in the face of death.
This is Zhu Ning’s sin and karma.
Zhu Ning remembered Liu Niannian's last location. She unfolded the map of the Kingdom of God in her mind and compared it with the current ruins. She found that as long as technology was supported, Prometheus's ability was very suitable for finding victims after a disaster. Unfortunately, he had never seriously carried out this kind of business.
Zhu Ning's camera captured a figure that was too hard to ignore.
Her long hair was disheveled, her body was covered in coagulated blood, and her facial features were very three-dimensional. Even in this situation, she did not look ugly, as if she was performing some kind of performance art.
Liu Niannian was holding a middle-aged woman who had fainted in his arms. Zhu Ning retrieved relevant information from the database, Liao Xianglin.
There was nothing special about her on the information page. She was just an ordinary first-class citizen, even a marginal figure in the Kingdom of God. Zhu Ning guessed that she was Liu Yu's only friend in the Kingdom of God.
Now Liu Niannian, holding Liao Xianglin in her arms, stands in the ruins, forming a colorful oil painting: gray ruins, a blood-red woman, her skirt floating in the thick smoke, her eyes sharp, a look of hatred.
Liu Niannian did not choose to kill everyone. Instead, he cooperated with Zhu Ning to make the Kingdom of God fall as gently as possible. Liao Xianglin probably played a role in this.
A water ball formed around Liu Niannian. The water was transparent and difficult to see clearly from a distance. The water curtain became her protective shelter. Against the backdrop of the water curtain, Liu Niannian looked like an elf.
Her power can cause the kingdom of God to fall, while at the same time protecting the weak Liao Xianglin. Zhu Ning has mastered power before, so she knows the difficulty involved better. Liu Niannian must be rough but meticulous, and achieve the highest level of accuracy and strength.
Liu Niannian is indeed perfect.
If Zhu Ning still had a complete humanity at this time, he might feel a little jealous or unfair. Liu Niannian received Liu Yu's complete love, her mother paved the best path for her, and even Zhu Yao was willing to hold Teacher Qi back for her.
But Zhu Ning did not have so many intense emotions at this moment. Just as she guessed, all human emotions were diluted.
Zhu Ning only extracted the key information, she witnessed the birth of a queen.
Liu Niannian's pupils trembled, but there was a crazy smile at the corner of her mouth. She smiled for too long, and it was almost frozen on her face like a mask. She looked like her mental state was on the verge of collapse, and she was on the edge of madness, as if she was standing on the edge of a cliff, and would be smashed to pieces if she was not careful.
Killing his father, killing his brother, and then the fall of the kingdom of God, with corpses everywhere, normally requires the intervention of a professional psychologist.
If Liu Niannian had a mental breakdown and expanded the contaminated area on the spot, as far as Zhu Ning knew, other than Su He and the people of the Recovery Society who could fight against him, other human organizations should not be Liu Niannian's opponents.
In that case, their positions would be reversed with those of the Resurrection Society, and Su He would become the savior instead.
Zhu Ning's task is to prevent her from having a mental breakdown.
Liu Niannian's gaze gradually focused, and she finally discovered the flying device in the air. The detection aircraft looked like a group of flies in her eyes. Her expression did not change, as she thought it was an enemy.
Liu Niannian opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she suddenly felt like her throat was being strangled, and her arms around Liao Xianglin tightened unconsciously.
The reconnaissance plane's three-dimensional projection cast an ice-blue figure. The light and shadow penetrated the dust and stopped ten meters away from Liu Niannian. That was Zhu Ning's current appearance, a narrow room, not even as big as the Lu family's guest room, about the size of a bathroom.
That scene was very visually impactful. Zhu Ning was almost completely black, and his eyes were inorganic. It couldn't even be said to be cold, but rather without... any emotion, as if a god was looking down on all living beings.
Zhu Ning's greatest characteristic was gradually disappearing, and he seemed so distant and unfamiliar.
Liu Niannian's throat tightened, and the blood that killed her father wrapped around her skin. There was a madness flowing in her body. She could cause the kingdom of God to fall and kill countless people easily. She could do many things with this madness, but now all of it has stopped.
The smile on Liu Niannian's lips slowly disappeared.
She had felt Zhu Ning's power. When the Kingdom of God fell, a hand joined her in attacking, and they both held a knife.
More specific memories came to her mind. She hadn't seen Zhu Ning for a long time. The last time they met was in the cloud of Bao Ruiming's consciousness. It wasn't a real meeting that time, it was like two characters meeting in a game.
That time, Liu Niannian escaped first, and Zhu Ning was trapped in the cloud of consciousness and couldn't come out. Liu Niannian had the ability to destroy her with one click, so she chose to help Zhu Ning escape.
Now when Zhu Ning appears again, there is only a digital projection, like a glance from a god. She is trapped at the end of the world, this time not in Bao Ruiming's brain, but in the brain of a female giant.
Zhu Ning is a prisoner of the world, but Liu Niannian has lost the ability to destroy her with a single click.
With a puff, Zhu Ning's shadow began to fluctuate. Liu Niannian initially thought that there was a problem with the signal and the projection was not high-definition. Liu Niannian could only infer the details through some fragments.
There are hundreds of cameras in Zhu Ning's computer room, which seem to cut the world into pieces. A girl swings a baseball bat, and when it hits the camera, the lens instantly shatters into pieces.
Liu Niannian guessed that someone with electromagnetic abilities was destroying part of Zhu Ning.
Zhu Ning didn't seem to care. The first words she said to Liu Niannian were also the opening words of their reunion, "I'm sorry, Pei Shu is dead."
Liu Niannian was a little confused when she heard the name, and then she realized that she had received the news of Pei Shu's death before, but it was too chaotic at that time and it was not suitable to mourn the deceased. In fact, it is not appropriate now.
Zhu Ning's voice was flat, probably because he regarded Liu Niannian as Pei Shu's "family member" and needed to make some kind of death notification.
Liu Niannian suddenly felt like crying, not only because of Pei Shu, but also because of Zhu Ning's attitude.
Liu Niannian was treated as the mother of the new world, asked to reproduce new humans, and was treated as a useless "vase" of the Lu family. However, Zhu Ning treated Liu Niannian as an ordinary human being from beginning to end. Only humans need this kind of death notice.
Zhu Ning respects Pei Shu and also respects Liu Niannian.
Zhu Ning: "I once promised him that I would fulfill one of his wishes. He is my number three employee."
The last time Zhu Ning came to attack the Kingdom of God and recruited Pei Shu, she promised that Pei Shu could ask for a devil's wish as his "salary" for joining her team. Now Zhu Ning has the ability to fulfill it, but her employee No. 3 has already sacrificed. Even if Prometheus is dead, the dead will not come back to life.
Zhu Ning had no one to pay her salary to, and she guessed that the only person Pei Shu cared about inside the wall was Liu Niannian, and among the people Liu Niannian cared about, Pei Shu should be one of them.
Zhu Ning: "I can transfer his promise to you. You can make any request to me without any time limit."
Zhu Ning's voice was very calm. It was unclear whether it was due to a lack of humanity or because he had mourned a long time ago and was now numb.
Liu Niannian's lips trembled as she thought of Pei Shu knitting lazily while cleaning up her mess, and of him holding a cigarette with sparks coming out of the cigarette butt.
Zhu Ning seemed to have handed her Pei Shu's body without her knowledge, and the funeral was held on the ruins of the Kingdom of God.
Teacher Pei is dead, leaving behind a devil's promise to himself.
Liu Niannian seemed to understand why Zhu Ning's opening remarks were like this. As long as Zhu Ning made a promise, it meant that no matter what choice Liu Niannian made, Zhu Ning would not force her.
Liu Niannian has suppressed her emotions for many years and tends to go to extremes when hatred surges. Zhu Ning wants to appease her with a specific promise.
Like Aladdin's magic lamp, it doesn't matter how rude Liu Niannian's request is. This promise doesn't even have a deadline. No matter what Zhu Ning's personality is, he will find a way to make it happen.
This is very much in line with Zhu Ning's style. When discussing cooperation, she doesn't talk about what she wants, but rather what she can bring to the other party.
The condition of Zhu Ning's computer room was not very good, and more and more cameras were plunged into darkness.
The kingdom of God fell, civilization collapsed, and countless people were killed and injured. Liu Niannian had definitely created an unprecedented mess, but Zhu Ning would stand with her.
She was much calmer than herself. Liu Niannian thought of the first time Zhu Ning assigned her a task. She followed Zhu Ning to clean up the contaminated spores, and Zhu Ning praised her for her talent in cleaning up garbage.
She thought of Zhu Ning holding her trembling hand under the gaze of the alien. She thought of sitting on the back of Zhu Ning's motorcycle, the strong wind blowing past her ears as they sped, her chest pressed against Zhu Ning's back, his arms tightly around her waist.
She thought of Zhu Ning's half-joking question: Little princess, do you need me to save you?
She thought of Zhu Ning's first visit to the Kingdom of God. It was such a big scene that the defense network was ineffective for a second, just to open an escape route for herself.
She thought about how she had forced the kingdom of God to fall when she was angry, and it was Zhu Ning's power that held her up.
Liu Niannian felt that Zhu Ning was very different. The holographic projection in front of her was very indifferent. Zhu Ning would not get angry or laugh, and would not call her a little princess. The immature and arrogant Zhu Ning of that year was about to disappear.
"I don't care whether the world ends or not." Liu Niannian suddenly spoke, her voice hoarse, and she held Liao Xianglin as if she was holding a doll. She was not used to being a real queen.
Zhu Ning hummed, "I know."
Teacher Qi's control over Liu Yu over the years, Lu Yao's violence against Liu Niannian, and the responsibilities of a new world mother imposed on her made her sick.
Liu Niannian should not sacrifice herself for any reason again, no matter how legitimate the reason sounds.
Zhu Ning would not force her to sacrifice herself.
Liu Niannian doesn't like humans. She hates most people in this world, but she doesn't hate Zhu Ning. To be more blunt, Zhu Ning is one of the few people she likes in this world.
"But I care about you." Liu Niannian said the second half of the sentence. She didn't care whether the world would perish or not, but she cared about Zhu Ning. If Zhu Ning became the new world, then she would care about the world.
Her chest rose and fell, as if she had found her direction amidst the confusion, and her tone became more and more determined, "I want to save you."
I'm going to save you.
Zhu Ning was silent for a moment. After the dust settled, Liu Niannian's figure became clearer. She was covered in blood and looked disheveled, but her eyes were bright when she raised them. Against the backdrop of the ruins, Liu Niannian was very dazzling. Zhu Ning recalled the first time he saw her face and was so stunned by her beautiful appearance that he couldn't take his eyes off her. Now the scene reappeared, and Liu Niannian was even more stunning.
Zhu Ning found it difficult to describe her feelings. The little princess back then said she wanted to save her.
This is almost impossible. With Zhu Ning's predictive ability, including Prometheus's computing power, there is no way for Zhu Ning to escape unscathed in all the futures he envisions.
Let’s not talk about Su He from the Resurrection Society for now, let’s just talk about crossing the Far North to open Zhu Ning’s cage. The destiny that Zhu Yao wrote for Zhu Ning is to become the new container of the female giant, and she is destined to be the new world itself.
If Zhu Ning was indifferent enough, she would have told her about the current situation. Liu Niannian had probably been in the Kingdom of God for too long and had never taken any risks, so she didn't know the gap between reality and ideals.
But Zhu Ning didn't say anything cold. She just said, "Then you better hurry up, or I won't be able to wait any longer."
