“A perfect match…” Doctor Zhao gave a bitter laugh. “You’re saying the two of us?”
“Yes.” Han Yimo nodded. “If we two team up, we can be invincible.”
“But I don’t want to kill people.” Doctor Zhao shook his head. “Not at all.”
“Yes, that’s exactly why I say we’re a perfect match.” Han Yimo placed his hand on Doctor Zhao’s shoulder. “You don’t need to kill people at all… you only need to ‘save people’. I’m the protagonist. Let me handle the killing.”
“I ‘save people’…?” Doctor Zhao couldn’t quite keep up with the madman’s thinking, his brain momentarily blocked.
“You’re a ‘doctor’, so being responsible for ‘saving people’ is your character setting.” Han Yimo smiled.
“But our goal is to dig out the eyeballs of the dead. What use is it for me to save people…?”
“Who told you to save those people…”
“Then what do you mean?”
“Once I have the emotion of fear, the ‘Seven Black Sword’ will cleave through the sky and come to my side, killing all guilty people…”
“But you and I are both ‘guilty people’.” Doctor Zhao said.
“That’s why I need your ‘Disintegration’…” Han Yimo smiled. “You’re my ‘life-saving trump card’… I can kill everyone by myself, and you only need to save us two when the ‘Seven Black Sword’ wants to kill us. Even if my ‘Seven Black Sword’ is shattered, it doesn’t matter. I can summon countless more. We’ll try again and again, and eventually we’ll kill everyone.”
After hearing this, Doctor Zhao sighed. “So you only hope I can save us two…”
“Exactly. This way you don’t need to take action, yet you can still complete the task. Why not?”
Han Yimo smiled and winked at Doctor Zhao. “If you don’t want to join Chu Tianqiu, you can join me instead.”
“I have nowhere else to go.” Doctor Zhao murmured. “Although we revive every ten days, I need food.”
“So you’re agreeing?” Han Yimo looked very happy and said, “It just so happens we encountered this deadly ‘Pegasus Moment’ today. We can wait here. There will always be those exhausted ‘Participants’ who return. That’s when it’ll be time for us to go on a killing spree.”
“What did you say…”
“Said it wrong, sorry.” Han Yimo smiled. “That’s when it’ll be time for me alone to go on a killing spree.”
…
Chu Tianqiu left ‘Heaven’s Mouth’, walking alone on the streets covered with black threads.
At this moment, the black threads were gradually retracting back toward the sky, and the streets were filled with corpses cut into two sections. Their blood was spilled everywhere, and the organs from their bodies were also spread out on the ground.
Before coming to the ‘Land of the End’, Chu Tianqiu never knew that human blood was sticky.
When he stepped down, it was like stepping on glue with low viscosity. Accompanied by “squelch squelch” footsteps, each time he lifted his foot, light red threads were pulled up.
He wanted to avoid it, but there was simply no way to dodge.
Blood was everywhere, as if this was the place’s true appearance.
In the city, not only were numerous Participants cut in half, but some ‘Madmen’ wandering the streets also collided with the hair stretched across the streets, then were cut into two sections without feeling anything.
They were merely sprinklers on the blood-red lawn of the ‘Land of the End’, now quietly spraying fresh blood somewhere on the street until the blood in their bodies was completely drained, making the land here even more sticky.
A few days later, their corpses wouldn’t dissipate with annihilation either. Instead, they would linger on the streets, adding bricks and mortar to the suffocating smell here, contributing their last strength.
This was the ‘Heavenly-Level Moment’.
As long as these ‘Heavenly-Levels’ were willing, the entire ‘Land of the End’ would be littered with corpses. The life and death of tens of thousands depended on a single thought.
Even those who could play tricks in ‘Earth-Level’ games, using so-called tactics and intelligence to luckily win time and time again, absolutely wouldn’t dare say they could escape the ‘Heavenly-Level Moment’ unscathed.
Because during the ‘Heavenly-Level Moment’, the referee couldn’t be seen at all. Numerous people could only die miserably alone, whether ‘Participants’ or ‘Madmen’.
Their only difference was that ‘Participants’ were split vertically into two sections, while ‘Madmen’ were split horizontally into two sections.
“How foolish…” Chu Tianqiu couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at the natives on the ground. “Clearly it has nothing to do with you, yet one by one you go to your deaths…”
He continuously moved forward stepping on the sticky blood, leaving behind black-red leather shoe prints. Combined with the black threads retracting in the sky, it formed an extremely bizarre picture.
At this moment, people were either already dead or resting somewhere thanking heaven and earth. Yet one person was quietly walking on the streets amid the chaos, like a lone boat sailing against the wind and storm.
After about an hour, Chu Tianqiu arrived at the entrance of a dilapidated convenience store.
This place also seemed to have been affected by the black threads. It appeared that Participants had fled inside, causing the black threads to leave several deep scratches on the walls.
Chu Tianqiu pondered for a moment, pushed the door and entered. After finding the convenience store empty, he went behind the counter and reached out to open the door to the employee break room.
A female shop clerk so thin she was barely human sat on the edge of the bed, murmuring something in her mouth.
Seeing someone enter the room, she slowly raised her head, her eyes flickering.
“I’ve come to deliver goods.” Chu Tianqiu smiled.
“Deliver goods…?” The female shop clerk was stunned, then shook her head. “That’s not right… you’re not the delivery person… You’re different…”
Chu Tianqiu’s smile carried uncontrollable sorrow. Then he took out a can from his pocket and quietly placed it beside the female shop clerk’s bed.
“But the goods I’ve delivered are the same.” Chu Tianqiu answered. “Did my current appearance frighten you?”
“You…” The female shop clerk raised her head and carefully looked at the person before her.
Although her rationality was basically gone, she could still sense the changes in the person before her.
He wasn’t wearing glasses. His hair was all combed back. Not only was there a streak of red at his brow, but he was also wearing a strange necklace around his neck.
This was worlds apart from the refined and cultured ‘delivery person’ from before.
“This may be the last time I deliver goods to you.” Chu Tianqiu said with a trace of choking. “Once I step out this door, I’ll never be able to return again.”
After hearing this, the female shop clerk nodded somewhat comprehendingly, asking with a vacant expression, “You won’t come again…?”
“Mm.” Chu Tianqiu nodded, bent down and grasped the female shop clerk’s hand. “Qiaoyun, the only way I can think of to save you is to let you die here.”
