Chapter 485: They're Not Only Mad, They're Mad in Their Own Way

~7 min read 1,280 words

A red shadow flashed, and the air was torn by a sharp whistling sound.

The red dragonfly's tongue tip split into three petals under the moonlight, each covered with barbed taste buds, secreting a translucent green slime.

The mutated long tongue writhed like a living thing, tracing an "S" trajectory of a poisonous snake's attack in the air, and viciously bit toward Zuo Bai's ear.

"We agreed you'd give us your head?"

"Why are you still dodging?"

The sound waves emitted by the high-frequency vibration of the tongue coating almost matched the resonance frequency of the nano crystal core.

Zuo Bai's head buzzed, and the crystal core in his skull seemed to suffer a virus attack.

Zuo Bai's vision suddenly began to distort, blue light exploded on his retina, like a computer blue screen.

At the same time, he heard a faint "crackle" sound from inside his skull, the noise of a biological crystal core overloading..

"Physical attack is just the surface, it also carries other sinister tricks, strongly interfering with the crystal core in my skull?"

Zuo Bai's heart kept sinking, with a feeling of being deliberately targeted.

In the eyes of the world, the most chilling thing about the 【Destiny】 Organization was their madness.

Indeed, madness was indeed the most conspicuous label of 【Destiny】, but their madness was absolutely different from madness in the conventional sense.

Their 【Madness】 was not like the hysteria of a mental patient, but more like a deadly strain carefully cultivated in a laboratory.

The twisted and chaotic patterns on the surface of the strain were just their outermost skin; peel open the skin and inside was suffocating calculation.

Just like the red dragonfly, before coming to deal with Zuo Bai, she deliberately changed a... tongue for herself.

In the makeup bag slung diagonally behind her waist, there were 12 independent compartments, each wrapped with a tongue of different shape.

Each tongue was her collection, like a woman's lipstick, a man's tie.

For different dates, the red dragonfly would change into different tongues.

Just like today's date with Zuo Bai, the tongue she changed into had a very romantic name, called "Poison Love Science".

Another example was the MC, he rarely used guns normally.

But today to deal with the E Corpse Teaching, he brought a sniper rifle and loaded "seeds" into the gun.

Right from the start, he fired one at Zuo Bai, a specially customized "greeting" from Destiny.

You should know, Dui 103 usually would not easily expose their identities, but now, their appearance was undoubtedly high-profile, directly showing business cards.

The effect was also outstanding, Zuo Bai instantly became a bare-bones commander.

What should have been a team battle turned into a duel!

Behind this lay deep manipulation.

To put it plainly, they were not only mad, they also knew they were mad, and would use this madness to intimidate enemies, especially to intimidate peers.

Over these decades, 【Destiny】 always "rectified" industry order with various bizarre reasons, controlling the number of peers; it's hard to say whether there was an effect of building a "brand" behind this.

You think 【Destiny】 just went mad stepping on peers' corpses once; actually, they were advertising!

After decades of brand marketing, 【Destiny】's brand had taken root in people's hearts, especially in the hearts of villain peers.

The second wave of tongue attacks came one after another.

Although Zuo Bai calculated the tongue trajectory, the delayed nerve signals made dodging slow by 0.3 seconds.

The three-pronged tongue tip scraped across the zygomatic bone, corrosive saliva instantly melted through skin and flesh, severe pain came from the left ear, a piece of cartilage was licked away.

The sound of chewing lips—

The red dragonfly put that piece of ear into her mouth in front of Zuo Bai, her scarlet tongue tip licked her lips, then spat it onto the ground, saying disgustedly:

"The taste of science isn't as good as I thought!"

Blue veins bulged on Zuo Bai's temples.

Cooling fluid sprayed from his nose, vaporizing into pale blue smoke in the air.

He roared angrily in his heart: "You don't eat, what the hell are you biting for?"

He reasoned with slight dissatisfaction:

"You can bully me, but you cannot insult science."

The red dragonfly licked her tongue: "You're right, then let me taste it properly again."

Zuo Bai's face stiffened; in less than two seconds, several more cuts appeared on his face, and his right ear was also bitten off.

Zuo Bai was furious in his heart, the crystal core in his skull was smoking with anger; he wished to self-detonate on the spot and drag this woman to perish together.

But Zuo Bai's pupils flashed blue light several times, and he endured it.

Most likely, he couldn't blow up the other party, and even if he did, it would be in vain.

Small probability, if he blew up the other party, that scene was too beautiful, science wouldn't dare imagine it.

"I'm not unwilling to give."

Zuo Bai rubbed his ear with his knuckles; blood beads seeping between his fingers floated with the remains of nano worms; the red dragonfly's tongue coating shattered 37.6% of the nano units in his body.

Zuo Bai had never felt so aggrieved in his life; he wanted to roar hysterically, but his voice always maintained the last bit of politeness:

"You should at least let me know what you want my head for? As the party concerned, isn't it not too much to have the right to know?"

It's not okay to be impolite; over these twenty years, statistics show that 874 peer organizations were sent the "Full Family Package" meal by 【Destiny】 for the reason of speaking impolitely.

"Impoliteness" accounted for 13% of the reasons for peer extermination, second only to "You don't want to be friends with me?" at 18%, and "What are you looking at?" at 27%!

Zuo Bai was a scientist; scientists believed in numbers as devoutly as in truth.

He didn't love the organization that much; he was just forced to love it.

If the E Corpse Teaching was wiped out, where else could he do scientific research, get experimental funding? Don't dream; it was impossible for other peers to accept him, if he survived by luck.

"If the organization is wiped out, and I can escape with my life, the probability is less than 6.3%." Zuo Bai calculated mentally.

Behind, the bald Captain walked forward leisurely, his flip-flops crushing the rotten ear on the ground.

He scratched his shiny scalp, showing an apologetic look of reasoning on his face:

"Don't be angry. A new member will be joining our team soon, and everyone's been discussing a welcome gift for them. One member suggested your head would be suitable, so..."

The beast stood to one side, grinning at just the right moment, revealing a simple-minded smile, and proudly pointed at himself with his finger:

"That's right, it was my suggestion."

With every word he spoke, his muscles swelled a little more, until eventually his entire body had swelled to three meters tall.

The beast laughed heartily, feeling as if his wisdom had exploded.

Zuo Bai's face darkened, and he asked with extreme humility:

"Could you tell me, exactly which lucky one has been chosen by 【Destiny】?"

Boom—

The air suddenly exploded with a bang.

The beast, who had been five meters away the previous second, had instantly appeared behind Zuo Bai.

That hand, capable of crushing a tank's cannon barrel, gripped Zuo Bai's head as if playing with a walnut.

His throat wriggled, and he grinned, laughing loudly:

"Don't rush. When he next comes to pay a visit, you'll find out..."
