Chapter 222: Truth

~10 min read 1,952 words

"You have established a Level 4 Sanctuary."

"You have obtained one designated item draw reward."

"You need to return to the world where this sanctuary is located for three days every thirty days."

"You need to achieve the following conditions to upgrade this sanctuary to Level 5 and above."

"Go to the data storage point of the Super Soldier mature body."

"Know the origin of biochemical beasts."

"Tell the truth to all human beings in the world."

Wu Pifu was silent, watching the middle-aged man in front of him gradually change.

He was rapidly transforming into 'it', from a human into a monster mixed with metal, chitin, and something else.

From this monster, Wu Pifu perceived an aura that was both familiar and strange to him.

He had felt the aura of this thing on the wild boar giant monster, felt it on the Black Forest goat cub, and also felt it on the rock giant.

The aura was very mixed. This was not the kind of half-breed, but a whole chimera change, just like a creature with a fly head, fish gills, human body, bird wings, and cow/horse hooves appearing in reality. This absolutely could not be explained by so-called half-breeding.

At this time, this monster had completely finished its transformation. It no longer possessed a shred of the middle-aged man's characteristics. All the sounds it made in its mouth were meaningless, and its entire appearance was very similar to the Super Soldier Armament style. But Super Soldier Armament was in the style of exoskeleton armor, while this monster could open its mouth, full of sharp teeth, and there were multiple mouths all over its body.

If Wu Pifu could still feel the rational aura of the middle-aged man as part of a human from this monster before, then now all that was on this monster was violent and incomprehensible killing intent.

In a flash, Wu Pifu retreated more than thirty meters backward. In front of him, countless spikes emerged from the monster's body. Each spike broke the sound barrier, and there were shock waves during the stabbing. The speed was extremely fast, and the power was extremely great, directly covering the distance of more than thirty meters in front of it completely, and the ground was torn apart like tofu.

Wu Pifu's retreat speed was fast enough, but he was caught up halfway under the pursuit of these spikes, and his whole body was pierced by these spikes, especially the vital places such as his head, eyes, throat, and heart.

However, at this time, Wu Pifu was already thirty meters away. When all the spikes fell on his body, they all erupted with sparks, and then only white marks were drawn on his body surface, not even breaking his skin, but a large number of spikes were directly snapped.

The monster seemed a bit puzzled. It tilted its head, and the next moment all the spikes were retracted. The monster's body rushed forward, and the space fluctuated like the water surface. Its entire body penetrated into the space and disappeared. But at the same time, Wu Pifu stood firm and shook his arms, and a claw and a palm hit the side of his body.

With a bang, Wu Pifu slapped the monster's chest with one palm, and one claw tore a large piece of chitin-mixed flesh from its abdomen.

This monster actually penetrated the space and came to the side of Wu Pifu's body. At the moment of being hit hard, its hands also probed forward frantically, waving continuously. Even if it was attacked, it didn't react at all, and it hard-hit Wu Pifu's arm, shoulder, and chest five or six times in a row, with extremely fast speed.

After the explosion, Wu Pifu was knocked into a tumble, and the monster also rolled on the ground after escaping the space.

One person and one monster both rolled dozens of meters away. The monster's chest exploded while rolling, and Wu Pifu also sprayed a mouthful of blood while rolling. Obviously, both were seriously injured.

"... Powerful!"

Wu Pifu gave a violent shout. While rolling, he slapped the ground hard with both hands, and his whole body jumped up directly from the rolling state. While still in mid-air, he shook his back, and the broken broadsword fell into his palm.

"Come again!"

Wu Pifu held the sword with one hand and immediately wanted to cup his fists and speak, but unexpectedly, the monster actually began to dissolve and rot while rolling, and it was dissolving and rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, the head part of this monster actually turned into a human face, and from this human face, a sound was made again: "... No, you are not a Super Soldier, you are a pure-blooded human!? Impossible, why would a pure-blooded human be so strong?"

This revealed human face was not the appearance of the middle-aged man, but a young man's appearance, but his appearance was distorted, like a human and a monster, and he couldn't see it clearly.

Wu Pifu looked at the monster that was rapidly rotting in confusion. He keenly felt that the person speaking at this time was neither the middle-aged man nor the monster itself, but a fragment of consciousness descending from an inexplicable place.

This human face looked at Wu Pifu and suddenly laughed loudly: "Wrong, wrong, we were all wrong... The so-called Super Soldier is a trap. We are not Super Soldiers at all. You are the real Super Soldier. It turns out that humans can really evolve to this extent on their own!!"

Wu Pifu was full of question marks. He really wanted to refute this person's statement. He was not a Super Soldier at all. This was martial arts, okay! "

This human face seemed to see Wu Pifu's confusion. He tried hard to lift the rotting spikes on his body and said: "Originally thought you were the Super Soldier of this generation, but who knew you were a pure-blooded human. Wrong, our theories were all wrong, all traps, but you are the real Super Soldier... Go! Reveal the truth, as long as there is you, then perhaps we humans really have a glimmer of hope..."

"My body... at... Xia Weiyi... distance... you must obtain it in advance..."

The human face seemed to be suffering from some kind of interference, and his speech was intermittent, and the sentences could not be connected at all. Except for the key of the location of Xia Weiyi, all other information was blocked. Immediately after, this human face and the monster rotted and disappeared together.

Wu Pifu was still full of question marks. He walked to the place where the monster rotted, confirmed that there was nothing except the pus on the ground, and stood in place thinking silently.

This monster was not killed by his attack, but its "lifespan" was up.

Although it was incredible, his intuition indeed told him that this was the fact.

The carrier of this monster was the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man himself was just an ordinary human body. Driven by inexplicable power, the middle-aged man turned into a "Titan Monster." That's right, this thing is probably the so-called Titan Monster.

But the ordinary human body could not carry such huge power at all. Even Wu Pifu himself had multiple sets of martial arts plus the improvement of his basic physical attributes, which gave him his current strength. And this Titan Monster completely squeezed all the life force of the body, compressing decades of lifespan into a few minutes or ten minutes to use, so it could reach this terrifying level.

Just from the short exchange, Wu Pifu could fully confirm that the strength of this Titan Monster was even above the wild boar giant monster, and even exceeded the various area bosses of the Demon Castle. Even he was injured in a short time. This kind of strength was truly terrifying.

"... All puzzles, completely incomprehensible."

Wu Pifu muttered this sentence. He squatted down and was silent for a long time in front of this rotting meat, and at the same time said: "Although I don't know your name, your ideals and pursuits are very noble. Azure... succeeded in another world, really saved all humanity, and turned this planet back into azure, so your sacrifice is not meaningless."

!

After speaking, he turned and walked toward the city.

At this moment, armed personnel had gathered in the city, but they didn't find any traces of biochemical beasts, so they began to treat the wounded, and when Wu Pifu found Li Xianchun, the entire city returned to peace again, and the disaster of dozens of deaths was silent.

"... This is our normal state."

Li Xianchun sat on the side of the road holding Daphne, looking blankly at the street in the distance. The dozens of corpses that were originally lying there were gone, leaving only people coming and going, and everyone seemed to be accustomed to it.

Wu Pifu also sat beside her, listening to Li Xianchun say: "Life is the least valuable thing in this world. Everyone is struggling to live, living one more day is one more day, but it is just living, just like walking dead with only the instinct to live..."

Wu Pifu didn't speak, just sat silently. Li Xianchun looked at him and said: "So, what exactly is that monster? What exactly happened?"

Wu Pifu shook his head. For a time, he didn't know where to start. He stood up and said: "Let's go back to the hotel first. I am also very confused about this matter, and also very hesitant."

The two returned to the hotel, and as soon as they entered the room, Li Xianchun asked the same question again.

Wu Pifu had nothing to hide. Except for the tasks he obtained from the Main Brain, he told Li Xianchun almost without any reservation about his battle with the monster and the content of what the human face transformed by the monster said.

Li Xianchun listened carefully to these contents and thought carefully about the information in them. She asked Wu Pifu: "Are you... really not a Super Soldier?"

Wu Pifu said seriously: "I didn't lie to you. I am really not a Super Soldier. This strength is all martial arts and martial dao power. I am an incomparably standard pure-blooded human!"

Although Li Xianchun found it hard to believe, she nodded and said: "Okay, let's assume everything you said is true. Since there are pure-blooded humans... then what are half-blooded humans?"

Wu Pifu didn't speak, and Li Xianchun didn't expect him to speak. She also said: "It's a pity that the clues are broken, otherwise I think if we continue to investigate along the clues, we will inevitably be able to find out the truth! Maybe even the origin of biochemical beasts can be found out. It's a pity."

Wu Pifu shook his head, and Li Xianchun stared at him fixedly.

"Although the middle-aged man didn't finish his words, and didn't even say the location of this mysterious place, he just had this thought at the time. I did feel the general location of this thought, so it is possible to find this location, but..."

Wu Pifu looked at Li Xianchun seriously and said: "I have a hunch that as long as I find this location and reveal some kind of truth, this world will change drastically immediately. By then, you, your sister, and everything you see will turn into a terrifying hell. Even so..."

"Are you still going to pursue this truth?"

Li Xianchun trembled upon hearing this.
