Listening to the noisy system prompts flashing like a waterfall in his ears, Lin An, in a special state, blankly stared at his own fingers.
Just like a pure, flawless infant who has never touched anything, he couldn't understand why the bug he had just touched exploded with a puff.
On his gigantic body, about a kilometer tall, his eyes were full of doubt.
Who... am I?
Instinctively looking around, with his every move unleashing unparalleled power, ripples spread through space.
Under his feet, Zhang Tie calmly snapped his fingers again, a hint of weariness flashing in his eyes.
"Klein..."
"Cut off the faith transmission, close the space channel."
Amoeba Worm instance.
Watching the space door gradually close, and seeing Lin An, who had fallen from the sky and already returned to human form, Klein let out a long sigh, his expression complex as he looked toward Chu An standing before the 'door'.
"I shouldn't have agreed to you in the first place..."
"Do you know how much energy this positioning consumed?"
His face grim, Klein painfully glanced at the dimmed light pillars on the Black Tower, feeling as if his heart were bleeding.
Without turning back, Chu An remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking:
"If you're willing to be endlessly reset, I can leave right now."
"Energy spent is energy spent; do you still expect to reconnect with the Wizard World?"
As if struck in a vital spot, Klein's bitter smile froze, and he could only sigh helplessly.
"Can't you stop threatening me all the time? I've helped you so many times."
"To be honest, do you really need to pay such a high price just to help this kid kill the Corpse Emperor now?"
"Even if the Corpse Emperor reaches the Fourth Stage, it doesn't matter. Once this kid himself reaches the Fourth Stage, couldn't he just kill her just as easily?"
"The energy is exhausted; we can't escape even if we want to."
"It's too late."
Before Klein could finish speaking, Chu An slightly shook his head and turned around.
"The alien species will appear soon; their world can't hold out much longer."
He lightly lifted his glasses frame:
"Run, where else can we run to?"
"Every race is fleeing, every civilization is fleeing."
"We, we can't escape."
"Let's take a gamble; maybe there's still hope."
As his words fell, Klein opened his mouth, a hint of dimness appearing in his eyes.
Yeah, where could we escape to...
Under the apocalypse of the entire universe, every world will face its end.
"Let's take a gamble... Chu An, this really isn't like your style..."
"You just trust him that much..."
Pain, my head feels like it's about to split.
Struggling to open his eyes, Lin An felt as if his brain were about to burst, making it hard to focus his will.
"Drink some water, it'll help a bit."
Barely making out the figure, Lin An saw Zhang Tie with a calm face lifting his head, slowly helping him take a sip of water.
Covered in wounds, looking at the massive Corpse Emperor's corpse beside him, Lin An was startled.
Noticing the rationality in Zhang Tie's eyes, which was utterly unlike the simple-minded Xiong Hanzi, he instantly recalled what had happened before.
Without even checking the rewards, Lin An blurted out in an instant:
"Chu An?!"
With a complex expression, looking at Zhang Tie obviously controlled by Chu An, Lin An had a thousand questions he wanted to ask at that moment.
Was this guy the one who saved me again..
Recalling the conversation between Chu An and the Corpse Emperor, Lin An bitterly chuckled and couldn't help but ask out loud:
"You already knew about the Corpse Emperor?"
"Do you know how to deal with the Corpse Emperor? Or are you saying you already prepared?"
What exactly was that space gate just now?
Mysterious and unfathomable.
Although I'd long grown used to Chu An's 'surprises,' this time Lin An felt it was hardly different from shock.
Just what step is this guy supposed to be?!
If Chu An hadn't constantly denied being a reborn, he'd even suspect Chu An was reborn alongside him.
He pondered for a moment.
After feeding him water, "Chu An" hesitated and nodded.
"As for the Zombie Emperor, I indeed knew about it long ago. But I'm not certain."
"Do you still remember me telling you that I've been gathering information through the war zone channels, estimating the mutant situation in each war zone?"
"In the Qinghai war zone, there are so few third-stage mutants, yet the zombie numbers are huge. It's normal for a few powerful mutants to appear."
"Combining their distress signals, it's easy to deduce that the Qinghai war zone hides high-stage mutants controlling the zombie tide."
So, I've been paying attention to this place for a long time.
However, the information about the Zombie Emperor only became certain to me after you received the mission, from Zhang Tie.
After the words fell, Lin An oddly looked at Chu An, who was speaking to him while wearing Zhang Tie's face.
Hearing a bear earnestly explain the logic to him, this feeling is really too strange.
But Chu An's explanation, to him, clearly avoided his own question.
"You still haven't answered me: why do you say you've long wanted to kill the Zombie Emperor? Have you contacted her? Otherwise why would you say that?"
With so many mutants, what makes you single out the Zombie Emperor? Especially coming from Chu An's mouth, he previously didn't know the hidden mutant was the Zombie Emperor!
After a pause, Chu An shook his head and seriously explained:
"No, I didn't lie to you about this."
"Rather than saying I want to kill the Zombie Emperor, I'd say I've long wanted to kill the high-stage mutant that should exist here."
"Lin An, haven't you noticed? The Awakened Ones' equipment in the Qinghai war zone is pitifully scarce—this is unreasonable."
Take the major war zones as an example: within each war zone, the system, like scattering feed, will fixedly spawn some equipment downwards.
Even if the Qinghai war zone is too difficult, the Awakened Ones here can't find equipment or hunt mutants, but it shouldn't be this bad.
Obviously, there must be something besides the Awakened Ones that took the equipment.
So, to me, the mutants existing here are basically like treasure chests—I naturally hope you kill them as soon as possible.
After hearing Chu An's explanation, Lin An's eyes flickered; this logic actually makes sense.
Furthermore, if Chu An had long analyzed that there's a powerful mutant here, why didn't he directly notify him to come early and take it out? Lin An could also guess the reason from this logic.
It's simple: the longer we wait, the more the Zombie Emperor finds.
Even more, the more people the Zombie Emperor eats, the more experience it gains.
The Zombie Emperor isn't wrong about one thing: zombies and Awakened Ones are the same—we all eat people.
Just in doubt, Lin An let out a light sigh and asked again.
"Then what about that space gate just now?"
"Since you've found a solution, why not do it earlier? Why pull this trick at the last minute?"
He recalled the terrifying power after absorbing the emotional force just now; even now, thinking back leaves him stunned. He had indeed heard those words blurted out by the Zombie Emperor.
Fifth stage?
Does reaching the fifth stage mean entering the realm of deities? A single finger could crush a false fourth-stage Zombie Emperor.
It's hard to imagine that when the amount of emotional force provided reaches tens of millions, the power he absorbs would actually be so terrifying.
If he'd known Chu An could strengthen him to that extent earlier, he wouldn't have needed to risk using mutation; he almost died!
Seeming to think of something, Lin An couldn't wait for Colonel Chu An to answer and asked again.
"Have you already settled the matter of emotional transmission?!"
"If I use the Causal Sequence in the future, could I possibly reverse back to that state again?!"
His heart pounded wildly.
Lin An stared fixedly into Chu An's eyes, a hint of tension in his gaze.
His emotions surged.
Since his rebirth, Lin An has for the first time felt hope in resisting the apocalypse!
