Chapter 240: Neon Country: Evil God
Countless butterflies were flying around the strange boy and the cocoon, blocking the strange boy's escape route. As long as the boy moved, these densely packed butterflies would immediately devour him.
Outside the butterfly wall stood Shamon with his hands in his pockets.
There were wolves in front and tigers behind. Knowing that he could not escape, the strange boy did something that shocked the two of them.
He looked up at the insect's eyes and said slowly, "You and I are the same... We are of the same race."
It is searching through the memories of Kenichi Sato, who it has devoured, and looking for the right words to express its meaning from the knowledge it has learned from him.
If A-level monsters only have simple logical thinking and try to imitate humans, then S-level monsters can think independently and can learn and even surpass humans.
"People of the same tribe should not kill each other." The strange boy continued, "If I have stepped into your territory, I apologize. We should not be enemies. If you want to eat food, I am willing to... offer you tribute, food that exceeds my nutritional value."
The strange boy changed to honorifics. It learned from the boy's memory that respect in words and actions is very important when facing a stronger person, so the strange boy lowered his head.
It slowly knelt down, placed its hands on the ground, and knocked its forehead against the back of its hands: "I am willing to work for you... and assist you to become the king of this area."
Chongjue and Shamon said nothing. They looked at the strange boy kneeling on the ground and were shocked and speechless for a moment.
It's not like they haven't encountered some monsters that ran away when they saw them before, and some that chose to become a contract servant to avoid being hunted down, jumping from the enemy to the friend, but all of these were based on instinct. The monster that chose to sign a contract immediately when faced with Shamon and other vests was already considered a rare smart move. This one is even better, not only does it know how to seek benefits and avoid harm, it can even speak well.
Very human.
Although the worm and sand are S-level monsters, their cores are still human souls, just wearing a real vest. This is the first time they have come into contact with a real wild S-level monster.
In comparison, the barrage in the weird live broadcast room was much calmer. They had long accepted the setting that S-level weirdos were not much different from humans.
[You slid down too fast, after all you are an S-rank monster. ]
[So, will the Light Organization welcome new members soon? ]
【Everyone who said this before should wake up and remember what he said carefully. This weird thing is not friendly to humans.】
[It's as if the Lighting Organization is very friendly to humans. ]
【At least I didn’t eat you. 】
[Well, at least the weird members of the Light Organization don't eat people.]
[Are you recruiting a younger brother? I'm so excited. 】
[Not likely. And didn't he say that he wanted Chongju to be the king of this area, and mentioned offering food. Who is the food? Of course, it's the people living in Ni Country. If Chongju really agreed and became the king here on a whim, wouldn't Ni Country become a breeding ground for keeping humans in captivity and feeding the weirdos?]
【Suddenly I feel that this future is so scary. 】
【What's there to be afraid of? The strong prey on the weak. Humans have always lived in this world, but humans were originally the kings. That's why humans could keep other animals in captivity for eating and viewing. Now the positions have simply been reversed.】
[If there are more S-level weirdos in the future, and they are all so smart, I think this kind of future is very likely to happen. ]
[The Earth is so scary, Mommy, I want to go to Mars. ]
【Lights don’t work like that.】
[I was saved by Ariel-sama in Tonka, and I believe her. But... if it's not Tonka's S-rank anomaly, it's very likely that the thing everyone is worried about will happen.]
[And I think, if S-class weirdos are so smart, there might be people who will cooperate with them to harm humans in the future.]
[…I couldn’t refute it.]
[In this world, the ones who harm humanity the most are actually humans themselves. ]
[Stop talking about it. It feels like there is no hope for the future. ]
[It's okay. There is hope. Have you noticed that there are more and more awakened people recently? ]
【Be clear, it’s not that there are more and more awakened people, but because of the spread of secret books, there are more and more capable people. 】
[Do you know the secret book "Use the power of others to fight back"? It is the book that Bai Yixin sold to the Chinese Department of Response to the Evil Spirits, and then taught to other countries. It is a secret book that non-awakened people can learn, and it uses the power of the Evil Spirits to fight back against the Evil Spirits. A research laboratory found that people who have learned the secret book have a much higher chance of awakening successfully when encountering Evil Spirits than ordinary people. ]
[Is this true? Can I still learn from that secret book? I want to learn it too! ]
【I know where you can learn it. The Seko Cult has it. As long as you join the Seko Cult in any country, you will have the opportunity to learn the secret book. It can also be found in China. As long as you choose the major of the Department of Dealing with the Strange in Chinese universities, you will definitely learn this secret book. My friend is an international student in China. Although she herself has not come into contact with it, a friend in China said that China is considering making the secret book one of the compulsory courses in schools. 】
[It’s so good, can international students also learn it? ]
【I don’t know yet.】
The topic of the live broadcast room began to deviate, and no one paid attention to the strange boy kneeling before the insect cocoon.
Except for the bigwigs who manage weird departments in various countries.
China, Jiuxia Mountain.
Li Tu had just finished her work for the day and used the teleport button to return to the base in Jiuxia Mountain. When she arrived at the lobby on the first floor, she saw Du Yi, who was wearing an apron and watching a weird live broadcast on her mobile phone.
The boy quietly walked behind Du Yi and looked at his phone: "Watching the live broadcast?"
The strong young man was startled and subconsciously reached for his waist. After feeling empty, he remembered that he was not carrying any weapon and was not on a mission at the same time.
It can be considered a mission, but I was sent here by the Weird Response Department to serve as a servant.
"Ah, yes, I'm very sorry!" Du Yi said loudly and saluted, then remembered that the boy in front of him was not the instructor, although he had knocked him to the ground several times.
"It's okay, you continue to watch." Li Tu leaned over again, "I want to see it too. That face just now was a cocoon, right? Did something happen to him in Japan?"
"Yes, there is an S-level weirdness." Du Yi said, moving the phone a little closer to Li Tu so that he could see it more clearly.
"S-level?" Li Tu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the screen of his mobile phone, but in his heart he quietly asked the salvation system, "Such a fun thing, you didn't tell me! Tongzi, don't you love me anymore?"
The rescue system on the main body was suddenly called out and immediately sent a piece of data over: "Huh? It was Chongzhu who said not to tell anyone, he can handle it."
"But it would be better if there was help." Li Tu was unwilling to give up, "I can help too."
"The Hidden Son is gone."
Li Tu: "Tsk, it's rarer than me, what's so great about it."
Just then, his eyes scanned the screen and saw the strange boy kneeling down in front of the insect cocoon. Li Tu's eyes widened and he sneered, "Record this and send it to me."
Hearing what he said, Du Yi said "oh" and nodded.
The salvation system knew that these words were also spoken to it, so it obediently recorded this part. Not only that, it also saved the part that Li Tu had not seen before.
The subject must want to read it too, so I’ll send a copy to him later, the salvation system thought.
Seeing that the strange boy looked like he wanted to be his younger brother, Du Yi frowned. He looked at Li Tu hesitantly, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
"Just say whatever you want to say." Li Tu stretched lazily, "By the way, wash some fruit for me."
Du Yi put the phone on the table so that Li Tu could continue watching. She hurriedly washed the apples and handed them to Li Tu before carefully asking, "Will there be another member here?"
"If you want to know if we will accept this weird kid." Li Tu took a bite of the apple and waved his finger at Du Yi, "I can tell you, it's absolutely impossible. Do you think it's so easy to join our Denghuo? Just come whenever you want? And he's such a weak kid, absolutely not."
As for whether there will be more members in the future, it depends on whether the entity wants to make another cut on its own soul.
...Sounds a bit like Voldemort, huh.
But that's the reality.
In the light, apart from the vest, there is only the real body. The other weird ones are not trustworthy and will be a nuisance if they come.
Du Yi nodded, looking at the boy who was kneeling down in the weird live broadcast and acting harmless: "He looks very ordinary and doesn't seem that difficult to get along with..."
Before the man could finish his words, a kick came from in front of him and kicked Du Yi several meters away. He hit the wall behind him and fell to the ground with a thud.
The noise was so loud that two people who were cleaning the room outside rushed in immediately. They were colleagues of Du Yi and at this moment they looked at Du Yi and Li Tu who had retracted his foot with a look of surprise and suspicion.
After coming here, Du Yi's body drank the strengthening medicine produced by the system. This kind of kick that could normally break three of his ribs probably didn't cause any other damage except the pain. Of course, it was also because Li Tu didn't use his full strength.
"Don't be so naive." Li Tu walked up to Du Yi who was slowly getting up, took a bite of the apple, and then gestured at her neck, "Maybe we are harmless to you? That's because there is an invisible rope around my neck. If this rope is gone..."
The pink-haired boy leaned over and squatted, looking at the man who was kneeling on one knee at eye level: "According to my nature, I would have torn you apart long ago."
The murderous aura filled Du Yi's heart, and he tensed up.
"If you ask what the rope is..." Li Tu returned to his usual lazy look and walked back to the sofa to sit down, "It's our little leader, right? If it weren't for his order, we would have gone all over the place to do evil. We are weird and are not bound by human laws, morals, and ethics."
"So, don't be naive when facing the weirdness of non-lights. You will really die."
