Indescribable cyberpunk - #624 - Chapter 611 Me too
It was already early in the morning when Zhu Jue returned to the clinic. At this time, nearly five hours had passed since he left the hotel saying that he was going to find the secret book of “Lightning”.
Gu Yingxing had already fallen asleep in Suzi’s room, while Suzi was in the living room. The former wanted to wait, but her mental exhaustion made her unable to do anything.
“You haven’t slept yet. Oh, you don’t need to sleep. I’m confused. Make me a midnight snack. Anything will do. Don’t add coriander or green onions.”
Zhu Jue’s back was slightly bowed, his shoulders were slumped, and his eyes were half-squinted. As he spoke, he put an ancient bottle in his hand on the table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
“Chow mein?”
Before she even got up, the lights in the kitchen behind her were already on, and the beeping sound of the induction cooker being started came with a certain rhythm. Suzi looked at Zhu Jue, and the beige light cast by the chandelier in the living room enveloped him.
Zhu Jue’s current state looks completely different from when he first left the hotel. He is extremely depressed. Rather than saying he is in sage mode, it is better to say that he has just experienced a life and death battle. Don’t get me wrong, it is a serious life and death battle.
His eyes turned to the extra ancient bottle. The inscription on the bottle and the precise fitting groove on the spout made it obvious at a glance that it was extraordinary.
Suzi didn’t mean to ask. Seeing Zhu Jue’s hands hanging by his sides, his chin resting on the table, and his eyes staring blankly at the bottle, he knew that he was probably emptying out. He got up and walked into the kitchen, and soon he was carrying a bowl. A lot of beef was added, and the steaming hot fried noodles came out.
“I went to meet two friends to discuss the next steps. I spent three hours doing tests and now I have a plan in mind. The success rate cannot be guaranteed. If it fails, I’m afraid our trip will not only be in vain. It may also cause big trouble to Thousand Sail City. I guess I will have to join in. It’s not a big deal for me. Taking risks is common for me. But there are tens of millions of people in this city, which makes me a little hesitant. I Although he is not a good person, using the lives of tens of millions of people as a bargaining chip is still too heavy.”
Zhu Jue stirred the fried noodles with wooden chopsticks and stared at them for a while. Zhu Jue suddenly reached out and took out the bottle, opened the cap with his thumb, took a sip of it as a drink, and then stuffed a large ball of noodles into his mouth. Chewing thoroughly, he said in a low voice,
“It’s just that although the probability of failure is very high, if it succeeds, it can solve a lot of things. Those guys in the Ouroboros organization will definitely have to eat shit. Maybe even the problems that have been bothering me can be solved once and for all. So now I I’m a little unsure of what you’re staring at me for.”
“If you are saying these words to get advice from me, you don’t have to. The future of Thousand Sail City without your intervention will be unimaginable, so no matter what you plan to do, I will support it. Have you already got the trick? Do you have a secret book? If you don’t use it, its existence will become meaningless.”
While Zhu Jue was speaking, Suzi sat across from him, his eyes resting on Zhu Jue’s face, and then said,
“Besides, through micro-expression science and current situation analysis, when you mentioned your plan to me, you had already made up your mind, but you just wanted to confirm my attitude, so what I just said is the answer I gave you, Putting aside my identity as a member of the Yi League, I will give you the answer in my own name!”
“I don’t believe in the capabilities of the Thousand Sail City government. If even you can’t do it, then no one in the Ouroboros organization can stop it.”
Another voice came from the door of the living room. Gu Gingxing stood there, wearing thin plaid pajamas, with a pale face and a particularly serious expression.
She really wanted to have a big dream and have a good sleep, but her complicated thoughts made her only able to maintain a light sleep. She woke up almost immediately after hearing the sound in the kitchen and realized that it was time to return to the clinic.
Suzi won’t cook anything at night.
At this time, the wind chime nestled in Zhu Jue’s arms also took the opportunity to stand up on its two hind legs, put its two paws on both sides of Zhu Jue’s shoulders, and rubbed its forehead against Zhu Jue’s chin, as if to express “I am the same” mean.
“Haha, you are putting a lot of pressure on me, but what you are saying is correct. If you let the Ouroboros organization continue to operate, the final result will probably not be much better. Instead of waiting for those bastards of Ouroboros to start… After destroying Thousand Sail City and trying to figure out a solution, why not let me try it out in advance and see who dies first!”
There was not much noodles left in his mouth. Zhu Jue rubbed the forehead of the wind chime in his arms, pressed its two long and narrow ears together, paused, and swallowed the remaining gada in one gulp without waiting for the two of them to reply. The Mengzi Body Potion allowed spiritual energy to flow throughout his body.
There was no taboo that Mozi and Gu Yinxing were right next to them. This was trust.
Zhu Jue showed his attitude.
Not long after, the potion began to take effect, and the black-purple mist enveloped Zhu Jue, and then flowed back to his body during his breathing intervals, forming a small-scale circulation, and the skin all over his body also showed a black-purple and silver color. The interlaced gray lines are truly eerie.
Gu Yingxing and Suzi stood aside, bewildered. They had always known that Zhu Jue was extraordinary, but they had never seen such a scene that was beyond ordinary people’s understanding.
Different from the last body transformation after drinking Gadamon’s potion, due to Gadamon’s will suppression, this time Zhu Jue’s torso did not undergo sand transformation in other parts, but purely enhanced his physical strength and spiritual power. Controlling abilities.
This is a result that Zhu Jue had expected. It is not good or bad. It is a pity to lose the ability to transform into a sand body, but what Zhu Jue wants now is to increase his combat power as much as possible to add victory chips to his next plan. Now that the Gadamon sub-body potion has been made, there is no reason to store it.
Feeling the power surging throughout his body, Zhu Jue’s lines were looming. He picked up another chopstick of fried noodles and stuffed it into his mouth. He made a pistol gesture with his free left hand and pointed at his chest.
After eating the remaining noodles in three or two bites, he stood up suddenly, pinched the back of the wind chime’s neck and held it in his hand. He glanced at the two people who had not yet recovered, and did not care whether they could understand or not. He said to himself: “From this moment on, you must be mentally prepared. Only one of me and Gadamon can survive, so the situation that follows will be a fight to the death!”
He strode out of the living room.
“Action now?”
Suzi looked at Zhu Jue’s unobtrusive movements and subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall, which read 5 o’clock in the morning.
“What are you thinking about?”
Zhu Jue, who had just reached the door of the living room, held the door frame with one hand, turned half of his face, and spoke in a low voice.
“Of course I’ll go to bed first. I’m going to seal the bed for 8 hours to recover my strength. Call me when lunch is ready and we’ll start in the afternoon!”
His voice and movements were very cold, but what he said was really casual.
Suzi also wanted to ask about the target of the afternoon’s action, but Zhu Jue’s figure had disappeared at the door.
In a broken and dark world.
Benjamin knelt down, trembling with fear, his forehead touching the ground, not daring to make the slightest move.
In front of him, a gray robe or cloak without cuffs was suspended in the void, with some light yellow lines faintly visible on the edges, and the face under the hood was hidden in the shadows.
The man in gray robe didn’t look at the man in black robe for even a second, he just stared at somewhere in the dark sky.
Black-purple light occasionally appeared, accompanied by some indescribable figures.
“Lord Ansiges, the second attack failed to be completed, please punish me!”
The Bone Tree, which could not withstand the energy infusion, ultimately failed to persist until they entered the real world to complete their plan. The aftermath of the explosion even caused a lot of casualties. Even the man in black robe himself suffered a lot of damage due to the backlash of energy. Injury.
But no matter what, the failure of the plan is an irrefutable result.
“The bone tree failed to withstand the energy of the great being. It’s not your fault.”
A hoarse voice seemed to sound from the void, lingering in Benjamin’s ears. It was clear that only one person was speaking, but the voices overlapped.
“Your mercy frightens me. I beg you to give me another chance. Lord Ansighus, I will never let the same thing happen again!”
“The second attempt is meaningless. Qianfan City has already noticed the problem. They will not rashly step into the area affected by the bone tree again. The divine servants in the warehouse have not yet been used. The time is about to mature. They must not be here. We are in a state of chaos. Let’s stop here. Everything is going according to plan. Next, it’s time for our friends in the government to appear. Your failure may be a sign of disaster in the eyes of the Qianfan City government. Maybe you can achieve the same goal. Effect. On the other side of the tree world, judging from the success of the plan, those people are still of some use.”
When the voice fell, there was no more movement under the gray robe. Before Benjamin could reply, he disappeared completely when the voice dissipated, and he did not know where he went.
As a result, only the gray-robed people were left in this world.
At a certain moment, black and purple energy fell from the sky and enveloped him, and some black and purple lines suddenly appeared on the gray robe.
However, they did not exist for long before they were completely suppressed and dispersed by the shiny yellowish lines at the corners.
Nothing remains.
“Mi. Go, you have such great power but don’t know how to use it. You are extremely stupid.”
The whispers from him echoed in the void.
