Chapter 205: Who is really in control?

Su Xiao xi's face was streaked with tears, she wanted to grab Su Tianhao's hand, but she didn't dare.

Lin Yifan had lost his parents long ago, but he could also understand the helplessness of watching his loved ones right before his eyes yet being unable to save them.

He also wanted to help, but he could see that Su Tianhao was truly at the end of his strength.

Su Tianhao sighed, then smiled and said:

"Xiao xi, don't cry, don't be sad. If we hadn't come to this Survival Realm, with my condition, I would have probably already stopped breathing."

"After coming here, I've been able to stay by your side for this long, which is truly fortunate. You are an independent child; I believe you can definitely survive on your own, and even more so now that Big Boss Lin is protecting you."

"And let me tell you, this world is very mysterious. During the time I turned into Maggot Human Bone, my body underwent changes and I could hear some strange sounds; those sounds kept saying that there are Divine Beings in this world."

"If you live well and also properly cultivate with your brother Yifan, given his talent, who knows—maybe one day he will truly become a Divine Being."

Originally Su Xiao xi's face full of despair, upon hearing this she suddenly lifted her head with hope: "If brother Yifan becomes a Divine Being, can you, brother, come back to life?"

"Maybe it's possible!" Su Tianhao said with a chuckle:

"Divine Beings are omnipotent; letting a mortal like me come back to life wouldn't be difficult."

Whether Divine Beings are truly omnipotent, nobody knows.

But Lin Yifan could see that Su Tianhao just wanted to give Su Xiao xi hope to keep living.

So he helped by saying: "I've also heard that in this world there are Divine Beings, and even for a race to survive long-term, it must give birth to a Divine Being."

"I don't know if I have any hope of becoming a Divine Being in the future, but I can promise that, no matter whether I can become a Divine Being or not, as long as I have the ability to resurrect your brother, I will resurrect him."

As for becoming a Divine Being, Lin Yifan saying he has no idea is false; it's not something you can just think about and achieve.

He wants to become the leader of this world, so becoming a Divine Being is the most important step.

But now he has been targeted by the Red Moon; how long he can still live is unknown.

He really doesn't dare to think too much about other things.

However, Su Xiao xi and her brother obviously have great confidence in him; hearing his promise, they actually believed it.

"Brother Yifan, I believe you can definitely become a Divine Being, and I will too." Su Xiao xi said solemnly with a serious face, "I will also always stay by your side to guide you until you become a Divine Being."

After saying that, Su Xiao xi turned to Su Tianhao: "Brother, wait for me, I will definitely resurrect you."

Su Tianhao nodded: "Xiao xi, I believe you."

At this moment, the cavern's turmoil became increasingly obvious.

Lin Yifan felt he could barely stand; he grabbed Su Xiao xi and said in a low voice:

"There's no time left; we must leave this place quickly, otherwise it will really collapse."

Su Tianhao also said: "That's right, this place can barely hold on any longer; I will send you away now."

He raised his head, looked around, waved his hand, and the huge red-light Red Moon crystal flew straight to him.

Lin Yifan pulled Su Xiao xi and stepped back half a step, his face full of economy looking at that Red Moon crystal.

He had personally witnessed how terrifying the Red Moon's power corrosion could be; even he couldn't resist it.

Su Tianhao saw his small movement and immediately said: "Don't worry, after being corroded by the Red Moon's power, I have gained some control over it; although I can only control a little, I can still control this crystal."

"However, my body is deteriorating too fast, so I can't maintain control for long; I must hold this Red Moon crystal to open the exit passage. After I leave this place, you must immediately take whatever is in my chest; as for this Red Moon crystal, it must be destroyed by divine power—you probably don't have divine power, right?"

"So I will bring this Red Moon crystal back underground; for a period of time, this place will still produce many Maggot Human Bones, but without me as the mother body, the newly generated Maggot Human Bones shouldn't be too strong; ordinary people can handle them, so there's no need to worry too much."

"But without me as the mother, they will surely soon find a second mother to replace me, and the newly generated Maggot Human Bones will become stronger again, so you still need to quickly obtain divine power to completely destroy this crystal."

"I have divine power, I can destroy this crystal, so don't worry." Lin Yifan displayed an ice cone, which contained a trace of divine power.

Su Tianhao sensed that faint divine power, let out a muffled groan, and his face showed pain.

Lin Yifan was startled, quickly withdrew the ice cone.

And Su Xiao xi nervously asked: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Su Tianhao gave a bitter smile, shook his head, then looked at Lin Yifan with admiration and said: "You really do have divine power; you are indeed the most qualified to become a Divine Being."

"It seems I might really have a chance to be resurrected; anyway, it's good—having divine power means this Red Moon crystal can be destroyed, making this area a bit safer temporarily."

"However, the Red Moon crystal is not just one; as far as I know, there are dozens or even hundreds of them, so you also need to quickly strengthen yourselves, then you can destroy all these Red Moon crystals; only after destroying all the Red Moon crystals can this region truly be safe."

"Do you know the locations of the other Red Moon crystals?" Lin Yifan asked urgently.

"I don't know that." Su Tianhao shook his head, gave a helpless bitter smile: "After being infected, my body actually can't move; I can only barely hear some strange sounds, those sounds are very chaotic, listening to them too much gives me a headache; I can only barely extract some information points from them."

"What I'm telling you now is all I know, so the rest is up to you."

Lin Yifan fell into deep thought; he originally thought those strange whispers were manifestations of the Red Moon's power, but now it seems he guessed wrong.

The chaotic sounds Tianhao heard, after organizing them into information points, indicate that those sounds are not merely used to lure people into indulging in the Red Moon's power as tempting sounds.

Those sounds are likely the communication between Lovecraftian creatures; if true, then the Red Moon is far more terrifying than he imagined, and those sounds can be heard in the wilderness at night!

From this we can see that in this strange world, perhaps only daytime is the Survival Realm's constant leadership; at night, it is the will of the Red Moon that leads.
