Free Web NovelChapter 74: Chapter 74: The Talking Evil Fallen
Bai Wu faced the Evil Fallen with a polite and friendly smile, but when Prayle’s Eye provided the information, his smile disappeared.
"Of the three hundred fifty passengers, she was not the most tragic, but her resentment was the deepest. As a human, she had encountered a young professor from the research center, handsome and wealthy, who wouldn’t like him? Easily enough, she became pregnant with the professor’s child. Of course, the story had to take a turn, for the professor only wanted to impregnate a beautiful woman, and then turn this woman into an Evil Fallen, to observe what would happen to an Evil Fallen who became pregnant under the condition of being unable to conceive. Look at her belly, and you should guess her fate. Level six mutation, Mutation Entry: spiritual power*4, Perfect Mutation Entry: Despair Spread."
Once again, Bai Wu’s hand unconsciously clenched into a fist. The woman’s belly was cut open, and he could guess what had happened.
Wu Jiu was clearing the Evil Fallen in the back, occasionally looking at these three Evil Fallen with surprise.
His current negative emotions could attract an entire cabin’s worth of Evil Fallen, but these three remained unmoved.
Bai Wu looked toward another Evil Fallen, having already deduced part of the truth, lacking only confirmation.
This Evil Fallen’s appearance resembled a phase of Dandelion’s form, covered in disgusting tumors.
"Unlike other passengers, not all were potential Evil Fallen who met tragic ends; some envied the Evil Fallen and intended to become one voluntarily. Upon learning the true purpose of this voyage, he believed that there needed to be a Guider, so he volunteered... to stop being human. However, the process of becoming an Evil Fallen was far more painful than he had imagined, and he regretted it quite a few times. Level six mutation. Perfect Mutation Entry: Absolute Regeneration."
Bai Wu suddenly understood; no wonder it resembled Dandelion, Absolute Regeneration... Could this be a kind of Dandelion?
Could it be that Evil Fallen were also classified by subject? Hmm, this question would have to be verified later.
The source, the overseer, had already been found; Bai Wu turned his gaze to the last Evil Fallen.
The image of this Evil Fallen, in four words, humano-canine appearance, with a dog’s head but a human’s body.
"The Bootlicker Evil Fallen of the woman whose belly was cut open. The professor played the rich and handsome man who took away her chastity. She couldn’t stop thinking about the rich man, even resentment is a form of obsession~ And the Evil Fallen Transformation didn’t change her face. Do you think men like mature women, lolitas, housewives? Wake up, as long as it’s good looking, they can like anything, regardless of gender or even if it’s human or not, and this Evil Fallen you see, deeply loved her, even though her belly was opened up by her last partner, and even though she had transformed into an Evil Fallen. Level six mutation, Perfect Mutation Entry: Shared Injury."
"So he’s a Bootlicker, no wonder he quietly stays next to another Evil Fallen, ignoring such tempting soup dumplings like Dwarf," Bai Wu mused.
"As a Guider who actively wanted to become an Evil Fallen, his temperament might be different, while the Bootlicker Evil Fallen is protecting the woman with the c-section, then why doesn’t she attack us?"
"There must be something wrong with this woman, but I don’t have time to investigate further."
Time was running out again, and Bai Wu had not found any information about the Doomsday Puzzle pieces on these three individuals.
The final thirty seconds.
Bai Wu calculated that even if the captain was strong, he wouldn’t be able to slay three level six mutations in thirty seconds, and furthermore, slaying them held little significance.
After making a round of inspection, the remarks given by his eyes were all relatively insignificant.
In such a narrow space, it was not possible to simply look in a certain direction as he had done previously on the grasslands and in the abandoned city streets, because within his line of sight... there were only Evil Fallen or other obstructions.
"It’s too late, Captain, we might have to die another round," Bai Wu said.
Wu Jiu’s frown deepened:
"No clues?"
"There are, but there’s not enough time."
"Okay."
Countdown twenty seconds.
The Evil Fallen from other cabins had already blockaded the entrance to Cabin One, Wu Jiu was under attack from both sides, and although he could handle it calmly, he was unable to move to the next scene.
After confirming there were no clues to be gathered, Bai Wu suddenly said:
"Captain, let’s assume we really can’t leave this place, then most likely we’re going to exist here as Evil Fallen in this Reincarnation space. Speaking of which, do you have any regrets?"
With Wu Jiu around, Bai Wu was now like an invisible entity to the Evil Fallen. He deliberately picked a lighter topic to ease Wu Jiu’s tension.
He was trying to slow down the rate at which the revival watch’s values would increase next time, while also trying to learn more about the strongest in the High Tower. freёwebnovel.com
However, Wong Shi obviously thought Bai Wu was joking about death, while Wu Jiu thought Bai Wu was somewhat disheartened.
Especially as Bai Wu’s body began to show some mutations characteristic of Evil Fallen Transformation.
"Don’t think too much. I’ve been through worse situations, and we won’t get stuck here," Wu Jiu assured.
The explosion was seven seconds away.
In the five seconds that followed, Wu Jiu still didn’t stop his slaughter. But his thoughts, more or less, responded to Bai Wu’s question.
Of course, there were regrets.
The comrades from Ghost Grinding Firm, who were like family, were both money-grubbing and endearing. If they found out he would be forever left outside the tower, they would probably be very distressed, especially that woman.
Then there were his own subordinates, Wurou, Xiaoyi, Yin Shuang, Wang Shi, and Liu Mu, his best friend in the Investigation Corps.
If he really died, would they cause trouble in the future? Get bullied by the Garrison Corps?
Finally, there were the ordinary people of the lower class. Having grown up in the lower class since he was a child, Wu Jiu had experienced firsthand the area’s brutality. If possible, he hoped to bring order to the lower class.
Three seconds before the explosion hit, Wu Jiu and Bai Wu’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
The Evil Fallen woman, with her belly sliced open, laughed even more strangely:
"See you next time, newcomer."
This sentence immediately gave Bai Wu a glimpse of hope!
An Evil Fallen that could talk!
This meant that the other party, like Dandelion Elijah and Hong Yin, was a rational Evil Fallen.
The clue must be with this Evil Fallen.
"Aha, time and again, the unlucky explorers die in explosions. So next time, will he find the Guardian of the shard? I bet fifty cents."
The flames swept over once more, and this time Bai Wu felt the process of the explosion to be even more painful than the last two times.
The Evil Fallen Transformation made his body exceptionally strong, slightly prolonging the process of death.
...
...
He woke up once again.
Luckily, this time Bai Wu respawned directly in economic class seat number one, right next to Bootlicker.
His first reaction was to greet the belly-sliced Evil Fallen woman again.
His second reaction was to observe the movements of the surrounding Evil Fallen. Without a doubt, the lower limit on Wu Jiu’s wristwatch had increased again.
The Evil Fallen were already heading towards Wu Jiu.
His third reaction was that the wristwatch was still in Spirit Possession state! The values on the watch were still changing irregularly.
After three observations, he came to a conclusion:
"The Evil Fallen woman won’t kill me, she’s not interested in eating me, this is an opportunity. Dwarf’s negative property is getting stronger and stronger, I must get clues in this round."
"It seems that item possession belongs to the main timeline’s rules, and this rule is not affected by the time loop inside the plane... However, my life status seems to have been saved at the moment I entered the plane, so the wristwatch that brings Evil Fallen Transformation will disappear after the explosion."
After organizing his thoughts for a bit, Bai Wu took a deep breath.
All the clues he had sorted out before, at this second, were put together in their proper places.
About the truth of the plane, he had only half of it, but he could probably guess the truth behind the other mission.
Bai Wu went straight to the point:
"We meet again. Do you know Yan Jiu?"
The strange smile on the Evil Fallen woman’s face vanished instantly.
