Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Boss Fight and Bombs
The Evil Fallen seemed to have not anticipated that this young man, who had already become one of their own, would still be so concerned about that woman at this time.
If it weren’t for the Spirit Possession wristwatch, Bai Wu would not dare to act this way; after all, the heavy scent of human negative emotions can only be perceived by the Evil Fallen.
But now... he could be considered one of the Evil Fallen, although he had not completely become one.
No matter how heavy the resentment of an Evil Fallen is, it won’t trigger the emotional perception of other Evil Fallen.
In one area, most of the Evil Fallen are independent of each other, just like the Evil Fallen in a zoo. In seven hundred years, there haven’t been many truly crushed to death by Jing’s huge body.
However, the effects brought by the wristwatch go beyond just that.
This emotional detection wristwatch has a bigger role than Bai Wu thought; it is a watch striving to become the MVP of this expedition outside the tower.
The Cesarean-section female Evil Fallen looked at Bai Wu and shook her head, saying,
"She’s not injured, but she’s not safe either; she’s now in the hands of a very dangerous person. But this no longer concerns you."
Time was running out.
There were three minutes left until the next explosion.
The announcement warning passengers about air turbulence sounded again in the cabin.
This time Bai Wu didn’t even catch a glimpse of the captain’s shadow.
"I want to save her! I want to go back; tell me how to do it!"
The cesarean-section female Evil Fallen revealed a chilling smile again,
"I can tell you how to return, but even if you knew the method, you wouldn’t be able to do it."
"Then please tell me... otherwise I won’t die in peace!"
"Die? You wish. In this place, death is the greatest salvation."
The cesarean-section female Evil Fallen paused, then said,
"I’ve been trapped here for seven hundred years. You and Dwarf are the only two who’ve come here in that time, and the reason for your arrival is naively laughable. There are endless years waiting for you, and I will watch as you gradually change from liking it, to begrudging it, and finally to hating it."
After being subjected to inhuman acts by a scumbag, the cesarean-section female Evil Fallen naturally no longer believed in love.
But the so-called disbelief is also a kind of obsession.
Seeing someone who dared to come to this place for the sake of love, she was somewhat moved. She wanted to prove that this person’s love was superficial.
Bai Wu did not give up, saying,
"Tell me the way back!"
Over seven hundred years, quite a few Evil Fallen had thought about leaving this place. Even death would be preferable to the never-ending imprisonment like reincarnation.
Seeing the appearance of Bai Wu becoming an Evil Fallen and sparing no effort, the cesarean-section female Evil Fallen didn’t prolong the suspense; sometimes knowing the method but being unable to achieve it leads to even greater despair.
She wanted to see the look of regret on Bai Wu’s face,
"There’s a bomb hidden in the airplane’s cargo hold. All of the Evil Fallen on the plane once came to a consensus to try to rebel against the bomb’s master. It has immortality and rules this region. It’s not like us; as long as it exists, you can never leave this place."
It’s most likely a Fragment Guardian, a level seven mutation of Evil Fallen? Dwarf can beat it!
Bai Wu listened intently for what came next.
"You brought a very powerful human with you. I haven’t left this place in seven hundred years; unaware of the changes outside, but it seems that humans have also found ways to deal with us. But no matter how strong his power is, he can’t defeat that person, and besides, he is different from you and me."
Bai Wu didn’t understand the last sentence.
"He will turn into a monster like us, but he can’t control his own emotions."
What does that mean? If Dwarf becomes an Evil Fallen, does it mean reason cannot suppress the instincts of the Evil Fallen?
Previously, Bai Wu thought that higher-level Evil Fallen must possess wisdom... but now, he seemed to understand that Evil Fallen with wisdom weren’t necessarily low-level, but it wasn’t guaranteed that high-level Evil Fallen would certainly possess wisdom.
Bai Wu had no doubts that if Wu Jiu turned into an Evil Fallen, he would become an extremely terrifying entity.
But perhaps, he would also be nothing more than a tyrant driven solely by anger and resentment.
"The captain is very strong."
Bai Wu was confident in Wu Jiu’s strength, but he was worried that Wu Jiu’s emotions might prevent him from utilizing his full combat abilities. freёwebnovel.com
Therefore, the priority was to dismantle the bomb and stop the death cycle.
However, Bai Wu’s hopes were quickly extinguished:
"If you don’t believe in evil spirits, you can try going to the cargo hold. All the monsters here have rebelled against it, and we’ve led it away, then went to dismantle the triggering device, but that device... even if it were destroyed, it would still explode. No matter how awesome Dwarf is, you don’t have enough time to kill such a powerful being."
The bomb is possessed by a spirit?
Fuck!
This was a piece of terribly bad news.
Bai Wu realized that ever since he arrived on the plane, he had encountered various explosive settings, as if it were a world designed to be uncomfortable unless he was dead.
The bombs were all possessed by spirits, and he could roughly guess their abilities—a model bomb that would explode on time no matter what.
"This area must have appeared later in the post-apocalyptic period, at least later than the wards and the zoo that I explored before. Many of the rules outside the tower have already started to come to fruition."
Bai Wu frowned.
If Dwarf couldn’t defeat the Fragment Guardian, to be exact, if he couldn’t defeat the Fragment Guardian within six minutes, then there was absolutely no way to clear the level.
But for now, he had to trust in the captain who still had an ace up his sleeve.
"Why do you know Yan Jiu’s whereabouts... Why can you see her? Who... exactly are you to her?"
The female Evil Fallen shook her head gently:
"I have some history with her, I can sense her occasionally, and she can sense me too... In fact, I can also sense another one, but he is already... Never mind, there’s not enough time, you might have many more chances to hear the story, perhaps you should try to escape while your companions are still lucid, although the outcome is destined."
The female Evil Fallen actually had the desire to confide, if she were still human, she would probably tell her tragic story with tears streaming down her face.
But having become an Evil Fallen, various negative emotions made her more eager to see the young man before her sink into despair.
"That girl is indeed very lonely, I didn’t know that in her world, there was someone like you willing to risk your life for her. Now, she’s likely to become even more solitary."
Bai Wu remained silent.
He had roughly guessed the past of the female who had ripped open her belly, but indeed, he didn’t have much time left to slowly ask for the details.
...
Wu Jiu finally fought his way over.
He gritted his teeth, resisting the unexplainable yet unquenchable fury.
"Any clues?"
Wu Jiu was covered in the blood of Evil Fallen, clearly, in his fury, his killing power was even more terrifying than the last death.
Bai Wu noticed that the value on Wu Jiu’s wristwatch was 70.
"It’s not increasing uniformly... That’s dangerous, it might reach the critical value in the next round..."
He nodded and said:
"I now know how to get out of here, the target is in the cargo hold. We don’t have enough time now, captain, we have to die one more time."
Suppressing his anger, Wu Jiu nodded. freёweɓnovel.com
"Also, captain, you must kill it within six minutes. The explosion cannot be undone, but there’s a way out of here hidden on the body of the monster in the cargo hold."
"No problem!" Wu Jiu’s killing intent was astonishing.
