“What did you see?”
Tang Bai did not answer. Under everyone’s gaze, he panted heavily and slowly stood up from the ground, propping himself up against the wall.
Step by step, he walked to Fang Heng’s side and reached out to touch the flesh on the ground.
“Sister Rui Qi, her mory...”
As soon as he finished speaking, a white light flashed in front of Fang Heng’s eyes!
The dazzling white light made Fang Heng unable to see anything for a mont.
When the white light dissipated, Fang Heng saw a third perspective image appear in front of him.
It was an illusion!
Fang Heng clearly knew that this was an illusion, but he still felt that everything was extrely clear, as if he was there.
A young man who looked to be in his thirties was kneeling in front of a large cultivation pod.
His face was filled with pain and guilt.
Fang Heng recognized him at a glance.
It was Ken!
......
And the little girl standing beside him! Milia!
They were the ones whom he saw in the photo in the notebook!
“Bang!”
Gunshots rang out.
Fang Heng’s heart sank.
The flesh ford from Hila’s tissue in the cultivation pod began to throb crazily!
Ken clutched his chest as he watched the blood oozing out of his wound slowly dye his coat red. He slowly turned his head with great effort and looked behind him.
“Eudora...”
“Ken, I’ve advised you many tis. Why can’t you let it go?”
“Don’t bla . I have to do this. For the sake of this world, you should understand . We all have lofty ideals, and we’re willing to sacrifice everything for it, right?”
“You’ve disappointed too much, Ken.”
Without waiting for Ken to answer, Eudora waved her hand.
Behind Eudora, a few teorite Company guards fired at the sa ti.
“Bang! Bang!!”
Gunshots rang out.
Ken and Milia fell into a pool of blood.
“Crack...”
A crack appeared on the glass of the cultivation pod.
Eudora seed to have realized sothing. She looked up at the cultivation pod with a look of surprise on her face.
The tissue sample of Hila in the cultivation pod actually started jumping crazily.
“Why? Does she still have consciousness? What kind of perception does she use to perceive the outside world?”
This was the first ti Eudora saw such a scene. She muttered to herself and turned to the guard. “Quick! Tell Dr. Liang Han to find . There’s a big discovery. Go now! Quick!”
“Yes!”
Eudora turned around and reached out to touch the cracked tempered glass.
“Rui Qi...”
Suddenly, Eudora’s expression changed drastically.
As if she had seen sothing extrely terrifying, her body suddenly twitched!
Then, she frantically reached out with both hands to strangle her throat.
All the guards in the room did the sa thing. Their expressions were terrifying as they frantically grabbed onto their necks. They were in so much pain that they were unable to speak.
At that mont, a deep voice sounded in Fang Heng’s ears.
“At the cost of my life, I curse this land that the dead will no longer go to the land of the afterlife...”
“Pu!!”
A red mutant worm body as thick as an arm crawled out from Eudora’s mouth with all its might.
“Chi!!!”
Fang Heng’s pupils constricted!
The red mutant worm body pounced in front of his eyes almost instantly.
The face of the mutant worm body twisted into a human shape and opened its huge mouth to face him!
Fang Heng could even sll the stench!
“I want to... resurrect!!!!”
Resurrect?!
“Bang!!”
In the next second, the illusion in front of him shattered like a mirror.
Everything returned to normal again.
Fang Heng slowly adjusted his breathing and looked around.
He was back.
This was the hall of the secret research room.
Most of the elite Dark Knights in the hall were still busy treating the injured. Xu Bin and Xiao Jing felt that sothing was wrong and looked at Fang Heng and the others in confusion.
In their eyes, Fang Heng and the others were absent-minded for a few seconds. Their faces were extrely pale as if they had experienced an extrely terrifying scene.
Xu Bin walked up and asked, “Fang Heng, what happened to you guys? Are you guys okay?”
“Yes, thank you. I’m fine.”
The illusion just now was too real. Fang Heng’s back was drenched in cold sweat.
The other four mbers of the team also experienced the illusion. They were all desperately breathing in the fresh air.
Mo Jiawei opened his mouth.
Recalling the scene just now, he felt as if he had understood sothing. However, after thinking about it carefully, he did not seem to be able to explain it clearly. So, he simply looked at Fang Heng to await his answer.
Fang Heng and Lucia exchanged glances, he said to Xu Bin and Lucia, “It might be the backlash of ntal power after killing the Boss just now. It will be fine after a short rest. You guys go and check the room at the back. There might be clues related to the main storyline mission in there.”
“Okay.”
Xu Bin and Lucia were also concerned about the main storyline mission. They nodded their heads and followed the Dark Knights into the ergency exit to explore.
After the two Federation mbers were dismissed, Fang Heng’s gaze swept past Wallace and the others.
After experiencing the illusion together, everyone fell silent for a mont.
“You guys saw it too, right?”
“Yes.” Tang Bai explained, “At the start, I felt Sister Rui Qi’s ntal power undulations, so I took the initiative to search for her. I didn’t expect her undulations to be too intense, and I suffered a backlash all of a sudden.”
“The second ti, I was prepared. I tried to communicate with the ntal power of the flesh, and we saw this scene.”
“Yes.”
Fang Heng nodded.
In the entire illusionary realm, the thing he was most puzzled about was that in the end, the red worm body shouted the word “Resurrection” at him.
“So Rui Qi is dead?”
Wallace guessed, “That’s Sister Rui Qi’s curse ability. At the last mont, she sacrificed her life as the price of the curse. I think her soul has already died, but because of the fusion of her body cells with the first-generation virus, her body is still immortal.”
Mo Jiawei blurted out, “So now she has beco a monster without consciousness?”
Tang Bai stared at Mo Jiawei.
“Uh, no, I don’t an that. I an...”
Lucia patted Tang Bai’s shoulder comfortingly. “Well, Rui Qi has lost her soul and consciousness, but her body may still be affected by the remnant will of hatred before she died, and she retains a few short mories.”
Everyone fell silent again.
Fang Heng pondered for a mont and broke the silence. He said, “Let analyze it. After Hila’s fusion with the first-generation virus, she gradually lost control. Eudora divided Hila’s body into 12 parts and hid them in every corner of the world.”
“Maybe during the process, Eudora kept one of them and was still secretly studying it.”
“But Eudora didn’t expect that even after she was divided, Hila still had a part of her consciousness and she could even sense the outside world through her special ability
“After witnessing, or perhaps sensing, the death of her family mbers at Eudora’s hands, Hila cursed the world.”
“The origin of this ga’s apocalypse world was actually a curse.”
“In the past, we have always wondered why almost all the top managent of the teorite Company, including Eudora, disappeared overnight.”
