Chapter 614, Contaminated Zone 6 (Thirty-Eight)
"You don't want to kill the sentries, you're just afraid I'll go back."
The realm of darkness.
The enormous red eye hung high in the air, its iris covered with dense black blood vessels that writhed like tree roots, splitting into countless tiny tentacles that slowly extended toward her.
After calming down, Yun Zhao calmly exposed it: "Because once I return to the manor castle, I will be able to see the last remaining fragment of the scene and immediately possess the complete spiritual realm."
At that time, her power will greatly increase, and she will become a true guide of light.
This is bad news for Red Eyes, and for all the gatekeepers here.
Yun Zhao never considered himself part of number six, but the other goalkeepers did not.
She was always an outlier among them.
Now this anomaly is back, and it wants to kill all the gatekeepers and even eliminate the source, causing Zone Six and all contaminated zones to collapse.
The goalkeeper, of course, would not give in so easily.
“Previously, I repeatedly pressed you to come out, but you refused. Now, you suddenly show up and say you want to kill the sentry, deliberately misleading me. In fact, your real purpose is to prevent me from going back.”
Yun Zhao floated silently in the void, with broken fluorescent threads beneath his feet and an endless crimson sky above him.
She came here after she voluntarily withdrew from the barrier.
You're just as smart as you were when you were a child.
Its voice came from all directions, unhurried and calm, as if it were evaluating a specimen in a display case.
"But you're wrong about one thing. Killing them or not was just a matter of convenience, child. Don't you understand? From the moment they stepped into this place, their fate was sealed."
Only death can take you away from here.
The red-eyed voice echoed within the domain, carrying a kind of indifference that was almost divine.
Humans are too weak.
If it weren't for the dark matter altering their genetic code, this fragile race would have been extinct long ago.
"So you admit it?"
Yun Zhao wasn't afraid of it: "Admit you don't want me to go back?"
Under the scarlet sky, the blood vessels of the red eyes slowly unfurled like the roots of an ancient tree.
I promised your father I would protect you until the day your parents appear. The Shadow Clan is different from humans; once a contract is made, it is never betrayed.
Yun Zhao suddenly laughed, "So you mean you don't dare kill me, but you know I want to kill you, so you're resorting to human trickery?"
What should you do when facing an enemy you can't attack?
Red Eyes chose to use Xie Tu and his group to create the illusion that he wanted the Sentinel dead, forcing her to lead the others back to Qingshan Town or escape to other areas.
Perhaps even more.
Yun Jue only made an agreement with it, not with the other gatekeepers.
It might even want to use other gatekeepers to get rid of her, thus fulfilling the contract and eliminating her 'contamination' by humans.
"They claim that humans are an inferior race, yet they are learning their wisdom."
Her voice was soft, yet it was like a sharp knife, precisely piercing the truth that red eyes least wanted to admit.
The red-eyed pupils contracted for a moment, then resumed their haughty indifference: "The tricks of inferior beings are merely tools."
"Yeah?"
Yun Zhao slowly raised his head, his pupils reflecting the enormous eyeball, and reached out his hand towards it. "Have you been here too long? You really think you're a god? What if I insist on going back today?"
His eyes were moving, but his voice remained neither sad nor happy.
[Child, what do you think will change if you possess a complete domain?]
This planet's resources have long been depleted, and humanity has long since learned to coexist with pollution.
It silently watched her, so small, [Destroying us is tantamount to destroying the last supply chain.]
Yun Zhao mobilized her spiritual power, and the phantom of the Azure Phoenix condensed behind her. She said nonchalantly, "So what? We'll eliminate you first, then think of other ways."
Now that they know they come from another planet, these are minor issues.
Once interstellar trade is established, the people here can rebuild their civilization.
In any case, both dark matter and red eyes must disappear!
Yun Zhao finally made his move.
She knew that with her current strength, it was virtually impossible for her to kill it.
She was merely relying on the protective talisman of the Cloud Technique to investigate just how strong this being from a higher civilization truly was.
The Azure Phoenix suddenly flapped its wings, and wherever its tail feathers swept, the green fluorescent threads instantly condensed into sharp blades of light, which met its tentacles with a clear and melodious cry.
Have you ever wondered why your father placed you with me?
The black blood vessels on the iris suddenly dilated, coiling upwards like ancient tree roots, easily crushing the first wave of mental impact.
Your spiritual structure is a product of our race.
The Azure Phoenix spread its wings and soared away, its figure appearing so tiny in front of the enormous red eyeball.
But whether it's the Little Bluebird or the Big Bluebird, they've always adhered to the principle of "I'm number one in the world."
Qingluan didn't take it seriously at all, merely glancing at the red-eyed creature: [Idiot.]
The enormous eyeball paused slightly, finally breaking free from the indifference of advanced civilization, and twitched inexplicably.
Lowly humans not only corrupted her, but also her spirit...
The shattered cyan-green fluorescence suddenly reformed, transforming into countless fine chains that coiled upwards from all directions!
Ripples spread deep within the giant red eye's pupils, and an invisible force suddenly pressed down!
Before the shattered cyan fluorescence could fully coalesce into a chain shape, the ripples deep within the red eyes had already transformed into a tangible pressure.
It was not a physical impact, but a spiritual crushing force bearing the imprint of a higher civilization's order, like a giant hand woven from the trajectories of stars, trying to completely smooth out all the "disorder" in this void.
Yun Zhao's spiritual strands were struck as if by lightning, the bluish-green fluorescence rapidly dimmed, and she felt a deafening explosion in her mind, with a needle-like pain piercing her spiritual strands.
So strong!
This was the first time Yun Zhao had encountered such a powerful and vast force.
She used the stinging pain to forcefully steady her scattered mind, and the disappearing green light spots suddenly reversed their direction, frantically tracing back along her fingertips.
The Azure Phoenix was also impacted.
Finally, he gave the monster in front of him a proper look, and angrily shouted: "Kill it!"
"Unfortunately, with your current strength, you can't kill me." The red-eyed voice carried an overwhelming sense of authority.
The black blood vessels on the iris suddenly lit up with silvery-purple patterns, which were traces of the fusion of entropy surplus and the energy of advanced civilization.
The invisible pressure suddenly intensified.
The red eyes had a natural restraint on her mental power; the fluorescent light was disassembled and suspended in the air, each small dot reflecting fragmented memories.
- A scene from when he was two years old and got lost in the manor.
- The moment when the Azure Phoenix first awakened.
- There was even a conversation with Xie Tu last night.
Just as the fluorescence was about to dissipate, Yun Zhao suddenly grabbed a fragment of memory—
"Thank you, I found it."
