Chapter 216 A peaceful life?
Chapter 216 A peaceful life?
With the fall of "Tenjo Rizun", the contract signed between Wu Xuan and the top leaders of Izumo officially came into effect at this moment.
Perhaps it was because they had been wandering on the edge of the battlefield from the very beginning, almost at the moment when "Tian Chang Lizun" completely disappeared... they appeared next to Wu Xuan.
The director of the security department walked slowly in front of Wu Xuan surrounded by the crowd. He looked at the man in front of him who had sheathed his sword, sighed softly, and then stretched out his hand without saying a word.
Seeing this, Wu Xuan looked up and down at the man in the suit. Looking at the hand that was shaking unconsciously, Wu Xuan's mouth corners slightly raised, and then he said playfully:
"Look, when I showed my strength, which was enough to make all of you die with it...you didn't dare to say a word."
"You can only pray in your heart that I, a killer embryo, can follow the agreement with you. That's why you are so scared now, right?"
Hearing this, the director of the security department suddenly looked a little unnatural, but the next second, the fiery red sword was placed in his hand.
Feeling the full weight in his hand, he was a little bit unbelievable for a moment.
Is this the end? Is this how he gave in?
As if he knew what was going on in the head of the security director, Wu Xuan walked slowly across the ruins towards the high-speed spaceship in the distance and said:
"I'm different from you guys. You say one thing and do another, and you like to backstab others for your own benefit. I'm not that stupid."
"Or... you should be thankful that the source of this power is 'nothingness', not 'destruction'."
"Otherwise... the moment I get the "Li" you will all turn into ashes."
Wu Xuan stated a horrifying fact in a very calm voice, and the director of the Security Department also thought of... the researcher who died in front of him.
That’s right, maybe for other “knife-wielding men”...it would take some effort to kill them, but for Wu Xuan...it’s a piece of cake.
Just a remaining feather can break through the crystallization of today's Izumo technology. How terrifying is this power when it fully explodes... No one knows.
Just when the director of the Security Department was still immersed in Wu Xuan's surprisingly high moral bottom line...Wu Xuan's voice came from his ears.
"What are you still standing there for? Do you want to go back on your word again?"
Wu Xuan's voice sounded like a demon whispering in his ear, which made him shudder.
He didn't dare to offend this father again. If he got unhappy, he might burn the whole place down.
Thinking of this, the director walked silently to the front of the spaceship and took Wu Xuan to one base after another to find his companions.
……
Silver Wolf watched the conversation between Wu Xuan and those people, and his delicate eyebrows couldn't help but frown, as if he didn't understand Wu Xuan's behavior.
"If it were me...I would have killed all of these guys who like to do tricks behind others' backs the moment I got the knife."
Ji Zi nodded at first, but hesitated for a moment and finally shook her head.
"You won't, Miss Silver Wolf."
Silver Wolf looked at Ji Zi who was standing behind him with some confusion, as if he didn't quite understand what Ji Zi said.
"Your current emotions are all based on your current thoughts, but when you are immersed in the power of "nothingness"...I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to have such thoughts."
When Silver Wolf heard this, he was slightly stunned. After a moment, he clapped his hands as if he had suddenly realized something and understood what Ji Zi meant.
"You mean... everything that Ah Xuan did just now was because of the influence of the power of "nothingness"? It turns out that the essence of these so-called "mantra" powers is actually the imaginary energy of "nothingness"? !"
Jizi nodded.
"I'm afraid so. After all, there was a not-so-small contrast in what the teacher said just now, so... I think he should be very clear about the nature of this power."
"But... wouldn't it be easier for people who are more exposed to the power of 'nothingness' to gradually turn into 'self-annihilators'?"
The Silver Wolf, who walks on the path of "nothingness", knows this very well.
The main reason why she entered the path of "nothingness" was the pursuit of meaning, which is in a sense the opposite of nothingness.
If she hadn't joined the "Star Core Hunters", she would probably have become a "Chaos Doctor".
But none of this matters. What matters is Wu Xuan’s current development...he really looks like a "self-destructor".
"That's right, Miss Silver Wolf, the teacher must have been... affected by the "nothingness", so this is the case."
"Does this mean... Xuan will one day become a monster like that...?"
Silver Wolf murmured in disbelief.
Although this was a simulation game, she always felt that something was not right.
Those memories are so profound, as if they really happened to me.
"Himeko...are you sure everything is alright?"
"It should be... no problem, right?"
……
Wu Xuan didn't know that two women with whom he had a deep bond were watching his actions in a room, and now he was busy comforting his companions.
Watching his former companions being brought out of the base one by one, Wu Xuan showed a rare smile on his face.
But this smile was not directed at these hypocritical guys around him. The smile only appeared for a moment and then disappeared without a trace.
"They will live a normal life. This is what you promised me."
"No, this is not a promise, this is the condition for you to buy your life."
The director of the security department let out a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then repeated: "Mr. Wu Xuan, we will not deceive you..."
"But you have a criminal record."
Wu Xuan interrupted the man before he finished speaking.
After hearing Wu Xuan's words, the man fell into silence.
"I know... it's hard for you to trust us in your current situation, but now that the conflict outside of Izumo has been resolved, as long as you and your companions don't become... "evil gods" again in the future, nothing will happen."
Wu Xuan nodded slightly in response.
But...he has no guarantee about how long it will last.
As the saying goes, "Once bitten, one fears the rope for ten years", whether it is him or his friends... it is probably difficult for them to forget these things...
To him, it’s not just whether they persevere that matters.
Also, will the masses who do not know the truth spontaneously come to find trouble with them?
These are all very important to Wu Xuan.
But...all we can do now is remain skeptical and keep moving forward.
