Chapter 42 Chapter 42 The soft spot on the tip of my heart...
The soft spot at the tip of my heart had not yet fully felt the joy of finding Si Qi, and was now filled with a slight pain.
"Does it hurt?" Her fingers gently brushed the wound on Si Qi's face. The light green supernatural power slowly healed the still bleeding scar, leaving a slight itch.
Si Qi shook his head, his fingers seemed a little stiff from holding the dagger for a long time. Si Ruxu forcefully took Si Qi's hand, squeezed five fingers into it, and interlocked their fingers.
"What are the rules this time?"
"Eradicate the aliens within five days."
Eradicate the aliens. It was another ambiguous rule, but the aliens outside took Si Qi as their target without a second thought.
A bunch of panicked idiots.
The small ball of energy from the little zombie was still gathered in Si Qi's heart, but it was faintly more active than before, as if it had returned to its long-lost hometown.
Maybe this is the little zombie's home, but not Siqi's.
While Si Ruxu was treating Si Qi's wounds, he was thinking in his mind that the main body of the mission issued by the massacre should be him, not humans.
For humans, the alien is Si Qi, but for Him, the aliens are those with special powers.
So this time, all the superpowers will still die.
On the contrary, as long as there is a mutant alive, Si Qi will die.
Thinking of this, Si Ruxu's eyes flashed with confusion. What about her? Is she an outlier?
She lowered her eyes, covering up all the darkness, and when she looked at Si Qi again, there was an indescribable complexity in her eyes.
"What do you think aliens are?" When asking this question, Si Ruxu no longer had any hope of luck. Si Qi had a connection with him, and what she could think of, Si Qi could not fail to think of.
But Si Qi's eyes curved, and he chuckled as he looked towards the faint glow of fire ahead: "It's them."
They didn't include Si Ruxu. "Those with twisted minds, whose humanity was eroded by the end of the world, and who had lost the ability to think, are outliers."
"But if I were also..."
"Then let's set fire to this place."
Si Ruxu was slightly startled. In her impression, Si Qi was always gentle and steady.
But at this moment, the dim light fell on Si Qi's face. There was a faint smile on her lips, but it did not reach her eyes, faintly outlining a bit of madness, and the broken hair by her ears was messy and covered her tattered and bloodstained clothes.
"What doomsday? What savior? Aliens shouldn't be divided by types of superpowers or species of life." Si Qi looked Si Ruxu straight in the eye and said word by word, "Only those who regard human life as worthless and are heartless are different from the current life, and are beyond the normal range."
"If that's not the case, if the purpose of the massacre is to kill all those with special abilities, regardless of whether they are good or bad, then He must kill us all. What's the point of burning this place down? Even ants know how to resist."
Si Ruxu was quiet and didn't say a word.
She knew that life in the end times had suppressed Si Qi for too long. The little sense of right and wrong she had left had also made her a little more aggressive.
She finally realized that hiding and avoiding him blindly, and letting herself become a duckweed on the water, would only make him worse.
"Quick, she's here! Kill her!"
"Go!"
The noisy sounds outside fell into her ears, and various balls of supernatural light smashed around in panic. Some of them splashed and burned Si Qi's face. She gently wiped the blood off her face.
He took Si Ruxu's hand and said softly, "Let's go. They will pay the price."
After saying that, before Si Ruxu could speak, the two people disappeared.
"What's going on? Where are the people?"
"Maybe he used his supernatural powers to teleport away. This place is spooky, and so is she."
"Damn it! I told you to hurry up earlier, but now you've gotten away and we have to chase you all over again!"
"You're so slow, if you were faster, we would have caught up with you long ago."
A mess.
Si Qi sometimes felt that even if she didn't deal with them, as long as she hid a few more times, they would fall apart from the inside.
When he landed, the wound on Si Qi's body, which had almost healed, was torn open again as if it had been knocked open.
Si Ruxu's fingers clasped Si Qi's shoulders, pressing so hard that her knuckles turned white. "Is your wound incurable?"
Si Qi shook his head. "I don't know. At first, someone discovered me and surrounded me. After that, every time I used my superpowers, the wound would open again."
"How many times have you used your superpowers?"
"three times."
"Including this time?"
"Um."
Si Qi seemed to be always hurt, ever since they first met, but she was obviously so afraid of pain.
Si Ruxu let go of her hand.
This time the teleportation location was on a mountain peak, and Si Qi seemed to be particularly fond of higher locations.
Because it is closer to the moon and farther away from the crowd.
"Your superpower hasn't recovered yet. How do you want to kill them?" Si Ruxu originally wanted to deal with those people by herself. Even if her superpower was not enough, she still had the last one in her space, which was originally given to her by the base to fool her.
But at this moment, she looked at Si Qi's calm profile and felt at ease for the first time. She wanted to listen more to what Si Qi wanted to do.
"Let's wait a day. They are so angry that internal conflicts will eventually erupt."
"Just wait?"
"Of course not."
Si Qi raised the corner of his lips in a somewhat ambiguous manner, "We still have to seduce her."
"No." Si Ruxu's face turned cold.
"I haven't even told you how to seduce her yet, and you think it's impossible?" Si Qi looked over innocently and blinked his harmless puppy eyes, but his dark pupils didn't look very convincing.
"It's nothing more than you using your teleportation ability to teleport over, and when they're about to touch you, or when they've only hurt you a little bit, you use your ability to teleport back, right?"
Si Qi's smile deepened, and he clapped his hands: "Indeed, you are worthy of it."
Si Ruxu pursed her lips and looked at Si Qi with a deep gaze, which went from gentle and quiet to taciturn, and then to the almost crazy activeness now.
She took a deep breath and moved closer to Si Qi. Si Qi tilted his head and looked over in confusion.
The familiar scent of a woman touched her cold lips, causing her to take a small step back. The slightly wider distance allowed her to see Si Ruxu's expression: uncomfortable, sad, and serious.
She heard Si Ruxu's voice.
"Tell me how to save you, okay?"
She was feigning composure. She had actually been shattered by the apocalypse even earlier than Si Qi, starting from the moment Si Qi was swallowed by the black hole.
Every word Si Ruxu said struck Si Qi's heart directly, and the pain was as dense as termites gnawing at her heart. She pursed her pale lips and turned her head away.
"Si Qi, listen to me, just once, okay?" The woman's voice was almost begging.
"What we know and understand now is only what we know. The outside superpowers don't know, and neither do ordinary people. The apocalypse assimilated many people, but there are also those who were not assimilated and maintained their original intentions."
"Aren't Luo Fenghe, you, and me all examples?"
"Once this massacre is over, I will go back and have Luo Heng distribute the information about his relationship with humans, their conflicts, and the results of our several massacres in the name of the research institute."
After hearing this, Si Qi's numb expression relaxed slightly. She turned her originally dark eyes and looked at Si Ruxu.
"Why are you doing this...?"
"In order to clear your name, even if it's just a temporary delay, I have to throw the dirty water on those high-ranking psychics first."
Si Ruxu paused briefly, her tone becoming softer.
"Think about the two previous massacres and the last one."
"The first major extermination told us about the scenario of the late apocalypse, but with His intervention, the late apocalypse didn't turn out like that, right? And think about it, what kind of changes happened to the timeline that was supposed to develop in that direction?"
Si Qi's brain, which had been shut down, began to work slowly. She seemed to hear a mechanical voice inside: "Because...two major purges killed nearly 20,000 people with special abilities."
"Yes, because there are fewer people with special abilities, the damage to the apocalypse is also less, so the progress of the apocalypse pollution has become slower."
"Then during the second massacre, we found enough supplies, so why were you the only one who survived?"
Si Qi thought carefully about it. When she was looking for supplies, she looked at the plants and animals, and the greedy humans. She felt angry. The meaning of "enough" is enough for one's own survival. Greedy people cannot swallow elephants.
So she stood up involuntarily and input energy into all plants and animals, causing them to mutate and gain the ability to resist, in order to stop humans from endlessly exploiting nature.
"Because I abided by the rules of the massacre, enough means only to ensure survival." Si Qi felt that a blocked hole in her brain was slowly pried open, and she was too slow to find a way out.
"So, regardless of whether it's true or not, we can definitely tell those people that He came because some people were destroying the environment and being greedy. We can say that you were controlled by Him at the time and felt His emotions."
"You said that as long as you survive five major purges, the apocalypse will end, and you are the only one who can survive because you can feel His emotions flowing in the air."
Si Ruxu's words opened the last layer of blockage in Si Qi's heart.
"Si Qi, believe me, believe in the appeal of the institute. People in the apocalypse are used to following the crowd, and the institute is the wire that controls their thinking. Whatever the institute says is what it is."
"If we get out of here alive, we won't have to hide all day. When there aren't any massacres, we can rest and recuperate. No one will chase you away or try to kill you. Believe me, we have to survive here."
Si Qi's gaze moved away from Si Ruxu and her clenched hands and moved to Si Ruxu's face.
A pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes were sparkling with tears, as if they were about to burst into tears at the next moment, but they were firm and stubborn, demanding a positive answer from her.
After a long while, she squeezed out a low word from her hoarse, dead wood-like throat.
"good."
