The old man shook his head. "We can only trap the host in here and prevent it from leaving. We use the black market as bait to continuously attract people and provide nutrients for the host."
As he spoke, he chuckled again. "The Chief Judge has never truly cracked down on the black market. Those actions you perceive as merely attempts to enhance its reputation. Only by attracting more people can we prevent the parasite outbreak. As for those who will become parasite food, they deserve it. Who told them to come? If they hadn't, nothing would have happened. Yet, they keep rushing here with such fanatical eyes."
"Since they've chosen to deliver themselves to me, the host also needs these corpses. Perfect. If it weren't for human greed, this host wouldn't have survived this long."
Pei Xiqing was silent.
Then the old man said, "But the host has been very restless these past few days. After the Chief Judge gained a brief period of peace in exchange for all his supernatural powers years ago, no one knew how to cherish it. Especially after that kid showed up here, the host has become restless and seems to be about to burst out."
He pointed at Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue kicked a zombie away and shot it in the head.
The supernatural power in his hand fell down with a crackling sound, shattering a large group of zombies and parasites.
Pei Xiqing immediately asked, "What is the relationship between the host and Duan Xiaolin?"
"They coexist, don't interfere with each other, check and balance each other, and are inextricably linked." He looked up at the gray sky. "That parasite was the product of the Chief Judge's ability years ago. It was a mistake, but it was also the only solution at the time. Without it, the present world wouldn't exist. But with it, the future of the world is equally worrying."
"It can be said that once the host dies, the presiding judge will also suffer a great backlash and will lose something. I don't know what it is specifically, but I have a hunch that that kid will be the culprit for causing the presiding judge to lose something."
The old man stared at Xiao Yue.
I wish I could kill him.
But Xiao Yue would not die so easily.
Pei Xiqing and Ying looked at each other.
Ying nodded.
Confirmed the old man's words.
Pei Xiqing was silent for a long time.
The end, the parasite, the villain, the plot, the protagonist...
This finally made her understand.
Why are villains forced to become less intelligent in the later stages of their lives?
It may be related to the death of this parasite.
After the death of the host, Duan Xiaolin was traumatized and was completely unable to reach his peak.
The people who killed the parasite were Xiao Yue and the protagonists.
Ten years ago, if it weren't for Duan Xiaolin, the apocalypse would never have happened, and the protagonist has to erase everything from ten years ago for the sake of the future apocalypse.
It's ridiculous that you didn't stand up years ago and now you want to enforce so-called justice.
Pei Xiqing took a deep breath.
Xiao Yue has already dealt with the last parasite.
He was badly injured, but could barely walk.
He accidentally met Pei Xiqing's eyes.
For the first time, I saw hatred in her beautiful eyes.
His body froze, and he couldn't understand where Pei Xiqing's disgust and hatred for him came from.
Xiao Yue wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and pointed the gun at the old man, "What do you want to do? If you don't tell me, I will kill you."
The old man hunched his back and glanced at him calmly. "Young man, luck is also a part of strength, but your luck is too good. It's really enviable. You can always turn bad luck into good luck. I really hope you can experience what it feels like to lose your supernatural powers."
"What's the meaning?"
The old man did not answer him.
Just glanced at Pei Xiqing.
He said earnestly, "Between this kid and the judge, only one can survive. Are you ready?"
