Ch 157: The Twin Gods Become Demons
Ji Chuan’s whole body emitted a white light with a five-colored luster. He retracted his mecha, feeling the energy pouring into his body from all directions.
He closed his eyes, his fair skin and white hair particularly striking under the glow. Long eyelashes covered his eyelids, his strong physique outlining aesthetically pleasing lines.
Leng Yue, standing beside him, was stunned. He even shed tears. The God of Faith before him was so beautiful; he was like an angel from the Garden of Eden, descending to earth to perform miracles.
Ice-blue eyes slowly opened, and Leng Yue knelt down with a thud.
“God of Faith! God of Faith!”
From then on, Leng Yue would become Ji Chuan’s loyal believer. He witnessed the birth of a god, and he wanted to share this moment of happiness with everyone.
Ji Chuan felt his body. The current feeling was strange. Aside from the improvement in his physical energy, he didn’t feel anything different.
He couldn’t even feel that the God of Faith had given him any new techniques.
“Why…”
Ignoring Leng Yue, who was still prostrating himself on the ground, Ji Chuan felt an immense sense of disappointment.
How to use this painstakingly obtained God of Faith? No attack techniques? Wasn’t he doing useless work?
Ji Chuan raised his head, wanting to shout loudly. If even he was helpless, who in this world could save it…?
All his carefully prepared hopes had come to nothing.
He would give his all to overcome every difficulty he encountered; at least he could see the vitality behind things.
But now, it seemed to be a death sentence—his death in six days and the death of all humanity. He had no better plan.
He could achieve an increase in energy by consuming a large number of Crystal Cores. Why waste so much effort collecting Faith Power…?
“Right, I still have the path of absorbing Crystal Cores. As long as I absorb enough Crystal Cores, I can still achieve transformation! I still have time! I still have time!”
The last coma only took four days. It seems that with Xia Yida, the transformation time can be shortened! He still has a chance now!
Leng Yue looked at the God of Faith before him, his expression somewhat ferocious. His body no longer possessed Holy Light; instead, it was filled with a black aura, dangerous and oppressive.
His fair skin had lost some color, and his right arm began to turn pale and bluish. One eye changed from blue to crimson, like a ruby flashing in the night.
The hair on his right side was also turning black. In a moment, the God of Faith, who had just been so holy, now looked like a half-god, half-demon monster.
Leng Yue’s eyes widened in terror. He kept backing away. The monster before him exuded an extremely terrifying sense of oppression. A moment ago, he was like an angel saving the world; now, he seemed like an evil ghost from hell.
Ji Chuan felt his consciousness was chaotic. This was the first time he had felt a killing impulse from the bottom of his heart.
“Kill him, kill him, you need to become stronger! You need to become stronger! Haven’t you wanted to eat him for a long time! Do it!”
Strange voices echoed continuously in Ji Chuan’s ears. As if obeying instinct, Ji Chuan’s hand instantly pierced Leng Yue’s brain, and the Crystal Core, along with the blood, was greedily swallowed by Ji Chuan.
“What am I doing…”
“So delicious…”
“No, Ji Chuan, you can’t do this…”
A new voice seemed to appear in his mind, but her voice was very weak, not giving Ji Chuan time to listen carefully.
“You have to get stronger! Just save the people you care about! Everyone else is your food! Absorb them! Devour them!”
“Just save the people I care about…”
“Ji Chuan… wake…”
In a blur, Ji Chuan felt his consciousness was occupied by two people, but the gentle voice was extremely weak and couldn’t control anything.
“Could it be that I am the Dual-Souled Evil…? The world is mine, I can’t let other Gods of Death steal my prey…”
His white hair was constantly disappearing, and his blue pupils completely turned red, as if there was endless flowing blood in his eyes.
A glowing circular array appeared beneath Ji Chuan’s feet. This was the Dimensional Movement he had just absorbed.
In an instant, he arrived in a strange city. A mother holding a child was cautiously watching the person before her.
While fleeing, she encountered a collapsing building. While using her body to protect the child in her arms during the collapse, her leg was pinned down by the fallen wall.
Ignoring the pain, she saw a person with crimson eyes suddenly appear, his whole body radiating a dangerous aura.
“Save me…”
The woman tried to ask for help, but the other person didn’t speak, his face cold.
He raised his hand, and the woman saw black dots appearing in the air throughout the city. She didn’t know what they were.
But the moment the dots shot out, she and the child in her arms fell down, along with everyone else in the whole city.
Ji Chuan’s face was expressionless. A strong bloody smell permeated the city. “I need to become stronger… I need to become stronger…”
He muttered, looking very strange, as if he had no independent consciousness, becoming a killing machine.
Dark Power lifted thousands of Crystal Cores from the city. Although high-level Crystal Cores were few, Ji Chuan did not disdain them as nourishment.
The Crystal Cores entered Ji Chuan’s body and were instantly swallowed. Those whose heads had been opened to remove the Crystal Cores didn’t even have a chance to become zombies.
The sky was overcast, and cold rain was falling continuously. The rain would only accelerate the decay of the corpses in this unfortunate city. The city, having lost its humans, would welcome the rebirth of plants and animals.
“Not enough… not enough…”
The halo under his feet lit up, and a new city welcomed its hell.
Finally, after slaughtering the third city, the consumed Crystal Cores gave Ji Chuan a feeling—the feeling of transforming again.
Before he could contact the people at the stronghold, his consciousness began to dissipate.
This empty city, filled only with corpses, was completely disfigured under the sweeping black energy. With Ji Chuan as the center, the black energy was constantly spreading outwards.
Roads cracked, houses collapsed, and corpses shattered.
This was the most terrifying instance of the black energy overflowing. Wherever the energy passed, it became desolate.
“Master…”
Ji Chuan vaguely felt that it was Xiao Hei’s voice, but his voice seemed very worried.
“Well done! Well done! You’re getting stronger! Getting stronger will allow you to do everything you want to do!”
This was the craziest voice that suddenly appeared in his mind.
“Ji Chuan…”
This was the always very weak female voice.
This transformation didn’t have Xiao Hei’s woven dream; there were no other voices around him. The voices in his mind gradually calmed down. Ji Chuan felt that only he was left in the world…
The Esper Base received the latest news: three Dead Cities had appeared.
No one survived in the entire city, not even zombies. It was terrifyingly quiet.
A huge wave of dark energy enveloped one of them.
Meng Haonian trembled when he saw the news. He had only seen this kind of overflow of dark energy in Subject 1.
The massacre of the three cities was most likely Subject 1’s handiwork. When Subject 1 awakens, it will probably be the end of humanity.
“This should be Subject 1’s doing. He is currently asleep, and we cannot let him wake up.”
