"How pitiful … You are looking for the Book of Inception … You want to redeem everything … Redeem the grave mistake you made … What a pity …"
Isra's veins popped out as he gripped the bow.
He had personally taken the Book of Inception from the giant stone wall of the relic. It was also the first page he had flipped.
The moment he had flipped the pages, he had felt the world change …
From that day onwards, the omens of doomsday came one after another.
The virus was just a cover. The truth, the source of everything, was the Book of Inception.
He knew, he knew it was all his fault.
That was why he wanted to make up for everything.
What happened next was just like what the voice had said.
Wherever he went, he would bring all sorts of disasters. If it wasn't man-made, it would be natural.
Storms, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, epidemics, murders, insanity, and all sorts of disasters that could destroy everything surrounded him and kept happening around him.
"You must take action."
The voice said softly.
"A fast-moving flame will only bring a moment of warmth. If it stays too long, it will burn everything."
"I …" Isra's body trembled as he gritted his teeth. The past few days in Cyril's life had been the most relaxing and comfortable since he had flipped open the Book of Inception.
He didn't have to worry about the dangers that might come at any time, and he didn't have to worry about dragging the people around him down.
All he had done was beg and hope that this peaceful life could last for a few more days. That was already the biggest gift he could get.
Unfortunately … Now it seemed …
"Your day is coming … If you don't go, the people around you will face misfortune again …" The voice grew weaker and faded away.
Isra stood in the darkness, not saying a word. He gritted his teeth as tears rolled down his cheeks.
…
…
Lu Sheng was standing in front of a motel in a small town.
The dilapidated motel used to have three floors, but now only the first floor barely had a ceiling. The rest of the building was made of twisted steel bars.
A dilapidated motel naturally wouldn't stop his gaze, but there were a few words written on the wall of the motel. The words were written in a blood-like red dye, and they made him stop involuntarily.
"You will die."
There was no exclamation in his tone, it was just a calm description.
Lu Sheng frowned. Although the handwriting didn't mention the name, his intuition told him that it was referring to him.
"Then you'll have to tire yourself to death first." He watched for a while, then turned around and continued walking forward.
* Hiss … *
Suddenly, a slight tremor on the ground alerted him.
Lu Sheng looked to his left and right. Seeing that there was no movement around, he quickly pressed the Pain Perception Ring.
Intense pain surged from his fingers, and everything in front of him was quickly dyed with a layer of gray and decay.
As soon as he entered his perception, Lu Sheng abruptly took a step back.
Bang!!
A pitch-black spear covered with countless spikes stabbed into the place where he had been standing.
The ground several meters around the spear exploded with a loud bang, splashing out countless foul-smelling viscous black water.
Lu Sheng was caught off guard and didn't expect what would happen next. He was splashed with black water on the spot. He hurriedly leaped back, retreating more than ten meters at lightning speed.
The Black Knight armor on his body hissed as it was being corroded.
Shaking off the black water on his body, Lu Sheng raised his head and looked in the direction of the spear.
In the center of the ruined town, there was a tall, thin, and huge woman crouching. This woman was four meters tall, and her lower body was like a centaur's. Her arms were black spiky forelegs like a spider's.
It seemed like these spiky forelegs were the culprit that ambushed him.
Hehehe …
A high-pitched laughter came from the woman's body. She raised her head, revealing her naked upper body. A black, sawtooth-like mouth suddenly split open in the middle of her chest. Countless long and thin black tongues drilled out, like a blooming flower bud in the darkness.
"This thing … is really …" Lu Sheng felt that his sense of beauty was greatly challenged.
Pfft pfft pfft!!
The centaur woman waved her spikes and rushed toward him.
Four heavy hooves stomped on the ground, splashing up large amounts of black soil.
"Go, Black Knights." Lu Sheng raised his hand, and a large amount of black smoke exploded behind him, forming more than ten Black Knights.
All the Black Knights rushed toward the centaur woman.
Bang!!
More than ten Black Knights slammed into the centaur woman's forelegs. The two of them made a loud noise, and the Black Knights surrounded the centaur woman and slashed at her.
"Finally reliable for once!" Lu Sheng let out a long sigh of relief. He was prepared to fight her head-on for a moment. Fortunately, this time it worked.
More than ten Black Knights wielded black greatswords, surrounding the giant centaur woman and slashing at her. However, their powerful strength and speed seemed to be suppressed by some mysterious force in front of this monster.
Every time the greatsword landed on the centaur woman's body, a faint black vortex would suddenly appear, reducing most of the impact of the greatsword.
Poof!
Two Black Knights were pierced in the chest, and suddenly exploded into black smoke.
Lu Sheng grabbed the air, and a burning purple two-handed sword condensed in his hand.
He lightly swung the sword, and the armor on his body, as well as the two-handed sword, started to emit faint black smoke. He then sprinted toward the centaur woman.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Amidst the heavy footsteps, each one heavier than the one before, Lu Sheng's speed grew faster and more urgent.
"Ah!!!"
The centaur woman once again tore apart two Black Knights, and turned to face Lu Sheng, raising her twin daggers high up.
"Kill!!!"
Lu Sheng roared as he swung his greatsword, and the blade drew a bright purple arc in the air, slamming into the twin daggers with lightning speed.
Boom!!!
A ring of purple flames suddenly exploded.
Lu Sheng turned his sword, and smoothly slid down from the centaur woman's side, leaving a thin wound on her body.
The black smoke and purple flames quickly drilled into the centaur woman's body, and started to corrode the centaur woman's flesh.
After landing on the ground, Lu Sheng's eyes were filled with white dots, and he quickly activated the Ten Illusory Demon Fist. The purple flame two-handed sword spun in a circle, and once again slashed at the centaur woman's front leg.
Kacha.
The front leg was broken on the spot.
Lu Sheng flashed away, and while the monster was howling in pain, he slashed at the other front leg.
There was a loud bang.
The centaur woman finally could not take it anymore, and knelt on the ground.
Ah!!!
She suddenly opened her mouth and roared, and all the wounds on her body instantly spat out black bugs.
Puff puff puff puff puff!!
The black bugs rained down from the sky, and everything within a few hundred meters was drowned in black water.
Under this indiscriminate attack, Lu Sheng was not spared, and was drenched in black bugs.
These bugs that were smaller than ants quickly began to tear at the Black Knight's armor.
Lu Sheng quickly adjusted the Ten Illusory Demon Fist's perception interference, and after many tries, he finally found the frequency of the bugs' perception.
Only then did the black bugs that covered his body retreat like the tide, and crawl to other places.
However, the Black Knight's equipment was no longer usable. It was completely devoured, and the dozen or so Black Knights were also annihilated.
Not far away, the centaur woman was still roaring.
Lu Sheng wielded his two-handed sword, and the power in his body surged, all of it concentrated on the greatsword.
* Whoosh! *
The greatsword spun at high speed, and flew towards the centaur woman's neck.
* Pu! *
The blade slashed into the woman's neck, and large amounts of black bug-like blood spurted out.
The centaur woman screamed in pain, and finally started to retreat.
Lu Sheng leaped a few times, and using the edge of his broken front leg, he jumped down from the greatsword.
He grabbed the hilt with both hands, and pulled it down.
* Chi! *
A large hole appeared on the centaur woman's neck.
* Sssss … *
Countless amounts of black blood spurted out, and the centaur woman was like an inflatable doll, quickly shrinking and collapsing.
* Bang! * Lu Sheng landed in the middle of the bug wave, and the bugs under his feet automatically avoided him, and quickly crawled away. It was like water meeting a reef.
Shaking off the bugs on the blade, Lu Sheng quietly watched the giant centaur woman die, and there was no more sound.
The black bugs on the ground also quickly scattered, burrowing into the ground, and disappeared.
Only then did he raise his head to look around.
The town in his Pain Perception was much more complete than in reality.
The ancient clock tower slowly swayed, and it sounded the time. The houses were undamaged, but they looked like they had been burned by fire, and were charred black and decayed.
"An inexplicable attack." Lu Sheng activated the Ten Illusory Demonic Fist, and walked to the centaur woman's corpse, and found a sticky ball-shaped object emitting black gas at the head of the corpse.
This ball-shaped object in his hand looked like a frozen ore that emitted cold air. The surface of the object was covered with sticky substances.
Lu Sheng tore off a piece of the corpse's skin and wrapped it up, and walked to the two front legs of the spikes.
The spear-like spikes had caught him off guard, and if it wasn't for the Black Knight armor, he would definitely have been hit.
Lu Sheng raised his sword and chopped off the two spikes, and held them in his hand, which could be used as spears.
He simply tied the two spikes with a rope made from the corpse's skin, and carried them on his back.
He only took the front end of the spike, which was only two meters long. With his 1.9 meters height, it wasn't eye-catching on his back.
After tying it up, Lu Sheng took it off, and stabbed it into the ground.
"Poof."
The spike pierced into the ground.
With a boom, a large amount of black water exploded.
Fortunately, Lu Sheng dodged in advance, and the black water didn't splash on him.
"Not bad damage. It can even corrode the Black Knight armor. Very powerful. But it's a pity for my equipment set. "Lu Sheng thought about where he could find another Black Knight monster to steal some equipment from.
The Black Knight suit on his body had been corroded to the point of being tattered, and there were even holes in some places.
'But now it's time for the most exciting part — picking up corpses!' Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then happily went over to pick up the corpses.
…
…
"Your teacher is suffering like never before …"
In the dark cave.
Isra sprinted toward the exit. He had to contact Buck as soon as possible, and tell his teacher about the danger that could come at any time!
Right now, Lu Sheng was happily picking up the corpses.
"Misfortune, shadows, nightmares, mystic energy … All the pain that humans can't bear will appear one by one. Follow …"
The voice rumbled in his ears.
Just then, Lu Sheng picked up something that looked like a treasure. Wiping it on his body, he decisively wrapped it up and hid it.
"He's about to die!"
Lu Sheng opened his mouth and bit the crystal-like bone he just picked up, a satisfied smile on his face.
"Life is like a water droplet in the darkness, short and lifeless … And he's about to welcome the end of his life …"
Lu Sheng's bag was almost full, so he squatted down and started wrapping a second bag.
The exit was right in front of him. Isra jumped up and dashed out of the cave.
"It's … too late …"
Lu Sheng carried the two big bags, hung them on both sides of the motorcycle, and started the engine.
"F * ck, out of gas!"
