Chapter 134 The Day of Doomsday (Thirty-Seven)
What Qiao Yuan said before was not only heard by the people and monsters present, but also heard clearly by the audience in the live broadcast room.
[So has Qiao Yuan really decided to let go?]
[But if I let the shadow go, wouldn't that mean I won't be able to complete the dungeon mission? Is it worth going to this extent just for a shadow that might harm me?]
[What else could it be? There is no shadow here. Who can she tell this to?]
[It can't be true as that monster said, that the person sitting behind is Qiao Yuan's shadow]
[Have you forgotten that you can delay time? How are Song Yanchi and the Saint Lady doing?]
[Woc, I read on the forum that Song Yanchi had already cracked the formation that could create illusions and found the book, but it was snatched away by the Saint, the Shadow, and the Infected]
【?shadow?!】
[Yes, one of the shadows seemed to be Song Yanchi’s own, and he knew his moves very well . Then the Saint Girl began to draw the formation according to the instructions in the book.]
[The monsters seem to be affected as well, and the fake Hammers is already running towards the door.]
Soon, the audience in the live broadcast room noticed Qiao Yuan's unusual behavior.
[But why did Qiao Yuan walk towards the stairs? Did he want to take this opportunity to ask where the shadow is?]
[But their conversation didn’t seem to be about this.]
[Why does it feel like this god is also very familiar with Qiao Yuan?]
[Why do I feel like He has emotions? Is He really God?]
[If not God, then what else could it be? And I think few people and other species can remain emotionless when facing Qiao Yuan.]
[Qiao Yuan is quite courageous, daring to be so close to God]
[It’s not that close, isn’t it? Didn’t they stop behind?]
[God actually agreed to chat with her. I suddenly became curious about what they were going to talk about.]
…
The series of discussions came to an abrupt end after Qiao Yuan seemed to throw out something. After a brief silence, some viewers seemed to come back to their senses, but then posts with related questions began to pour out.
[…Wait, what did Qiao Yuan throw out?! ]
[It looks like a hand grenade]
【？ ？ ？】
[No, where did she get it from? ]
[I don't know, maybe it's equipment for security guards]
[How is this possible? Anthony didn't even allow his players to carry guns before, so how could he give them grenades?]
[Did she prepare it herself? ]
[That's even more impossible. I watched it from beginning to end and didn't see her preparing this at all.]
[Actually, there is another possibility, it belongs to Anthony. According to my experience, Anthony should be a mercenary, so he carries these things out of habit.]
[Anthony gave it to her? It seems that the relationship between her and Anthony is not that good. I didn’t expect Anthony to be such a nice person.]
[After all, Sister Qiao is pretty, so it's normal for people to be attracted to her]
I mean she stole it from Anthony.
[? Do you mean stealing hearts or stealing grenades?]
Among them, there was a group of people shouting wildly -
[No, didn't anyone notice that she threw the grenade at God? Is she crazy?! ]
[I also want to say, what is this, first salute and then fire]
[I saw an arm flying out]
[Whose arm is it? God's or Qiao Yuan's]
[If Qiao Yuan only had two arms before, they must have been from God]
[Can God be injured by explosions?]
【？ ？ ？】
[This... Sir, times have changed.]
[Pass it on, Qiao is willing to kill God]
[No, that arm looks like an infected person]
After the saint's reminder, the vigilance in Anthony's eyes subsided a little, remembering that the other party had indeed contacted him about this matter before.
Anthony looked with a complicated expression at the thing kneeling on the ground, which looked like it could no longer be called a human being.
The people who were originally surrounding it had quickly dispersed, and there was a large empty space around it.
The opponent's skin also lost its human color after leaving his face, and it was still twisting on the ground like a bug when it fell to the ground. The fake Hammers had changed from kneeling to lying on the ground. The hands that were originally covering his face had fallen down, revealing a face that looked like it had been peeled off alive and cut a few times. The hands were still trying to reach out to a team member standing not far from it and said, "Hurry, hurry up and help me up..."
Because it was still Hammos' voice, the team members' hearts naturally wavered for a moment, but after seeing the torn face, the team members who originally wanted to reach out hid their hands behind their backs again.
Not to mention the team members, Anthony was also a little dazed when he heard this voice. Although he and Hamos were in an employment relationship at the beginning, as time went by, they became good friends because they knew each other for a long time. Even because of Hamos' influence, he gradually accepted the existence of God. Later, after the doomsday came, he chose to follow him to establish a base. For some shady things, Hamos also let him handle them, after all, the other party only trusted him.
He just didn't expect that one day the other party would be suddenly replaced, and he hadn't discovered it yet.
It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel any sadness in his heart, but for Anthony, the most important thing now was to deal with the monster in front of him. Firstly, because of the degree of danger of the other party, and secondly, it could be regarded as revenge for Hamos.
Because the Saint had just revealed her understanding of the monster, he subconsciously looked at her: "So what's going on with it now?"
"I found a book which records how to send it back first." The saint looked at the monster. The scene was in chaos at this moment. She no longer needed to disguise herself as before and looked at the monster with resentment.
She really regarded Hamos as her father, so she hated this monster very much. But even if she couldn't find a way to completely solve it, it would be good to be able to send it back.
The monster who was kneeling on the ground also heard the saint's words, raised his face and looked over. The eyes that could barely be seen were now filled with strong resentment. He stared at the saint in front of him viciously and said in the voice of Hammers: "Do you think you are on the side of justice and avenging your father?"
"Unfortunately, your father was not a good person. In order to summon the gods, he selected some qualified residents of the base as sacrifices. In order to meet the conditions for automatic sacrifice, he created hallucinations to make them commit suicide. After discovering that the use of human corpses often failed, he tried to turn them into infected people before conducting experiments..."
Because of the pain, its words were mixed with violent gasps, but they were loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
Some security guards looked suddenly enlightened. After all, they were indeed asked to announce the cremation , but in fact they were brought here. Some security guards looked confused and subconsciously looked at Anthony.
However, he found that Anthony did not look surprised at all. He was just asking the saint when the monster would disappear. It was obvious that he already knew about this matter.
The monster's malicious eyes were still staring at the saint: "When I was summoned, there was an infected person lying at his feet. If she was still alive, she should be about your age. After becoming an infected person, although she only retained a trace of consciousness, she subconsciously wanted to ask Hamos for help, but she didn't know that Hamos was the culprit who caused her current appearance."
"Do you know why he only dared to sacrifice himself? Because it was too cruel. The dead humans were fine, they were just tortured in their lifetime, and some of them became infected. Some of them still felt pain and watched themselves being disemboweled again..."
Many people present shuddered subconsciously when they heard the description of the monster, and their anger and sadness about the monster killing Hammos also dissipated a lot.
The description of the monster was so vivid that they all felt for a moment that they were the ones being sacrificed.
They had only heard that Hammos was going to summon God, but they had never thought about the cost behind it.
However, some team members also spoke out: "This is the monster's one-sided statement, maybe just to discredit Mr. Hammers!"
The first team member spoke up, as if to open the conversation, and the others followed suit: "Yes, it is true that Mr. Hammers took us in, and if this monster is infected, it will eat people!"
Listening to everyone's discussion, Yu Guo obviously found it quite interesting. However, the smile that was about to bloom on the corner of his lips paused when his intact eye caught a glimpse of a figure walking towards him, and then turned into a look of long relief: "Sister, you came out. I was really scared when I saw that monster suddenly rushing out just now..."
The ones walking towards Yu Guo were Qiao Yuan and Sheng Guiye.
After throwing the grenade, Qiao Yuan ignored the senior executive standing at the bottom of the stairs and walked directly down the stairs to run towards the door. Unexpectedly , he bumped into Sheng Guiye who rushed in.
And she soon met Sheng Guiye's eyes.
But Sheng Guiye's gaze only stayed on her for a few seconds before he withdrew it and fell behind her. His voice was as calm as ever: "What happened?"
Qiao Yuan's entire focus was on his own shadow, so he could only answer Sheng Guiye with two words: "It exploded."
She had no time to care about why Sheng Guiye appeared here. After answering, she quickly ran towards the door and just heard the monster's words.
What the monster said was similar to what she had guessed based on the saint's speculation. Coupled with Anthony's expression, Qiao Yuan became more and more certain that what the other party said was true.
There were footsteps behind him. Qiao Yuan turned around and saw that it was Sheng Guiye who followed him out. Then he turned back and his eyes fell on the Saint...
To be precise, it was the shadow projected on the other side of the wall.
Everyone else was looking at people or monsters, but she was the only one staring at the black spot on the wall.
The monster also heard the whispers of the other team members, and a sound like laughter came out of his throat: "Why would I lie about something like this?"
"If I hadn't eaten the infected person first, I wouldn't have the strength to kill him, so he can only be considered to be trapped in his own web..."
"So what?" The Saint suddenly interrupted the monster and said, "Father is also doing this for the benefit of the group."
"If only a small number of people or infected people need to be sacrificed to end the apocalypse, then why not do it? Moreover, these people have no relationship with my father. If my father had not established a base to take them in, these people would have died in the apocalypse long ago. Moreover, my father has allowed them to live for a while longer, so they don't have to endure the pain of displacement like they do outside..."
The saint's words undoubtedly confirmed the truth of the monster's words from another perspective.
As someone who has always cared about Hammers, she naturally knew more or less about the relevant matters, but she obviously did not think it was wrong.
Some team members looked at this saint in horror, who was completely different from what they knew, while other team members nodded after being surprised, apparently being convinced by the saint's words. After all, they were included in the people Hammos wanted to save, and they also felt fortunate that they were not chosen as sacrifices.
The monster's hands and feet were already showing signs of melting, but after hearing the saint's words, it still burst into a cold laugh: "It seems that you also knew these things before. You said that those people were killed because of unrelated reasons..."
"But do you know that because the rituals kept failing, Hammers originally chose you and the Son as the next sacrifice, so that sacrifice was someone about your age. In a way, I saved you."
