Siren Blade

Chapter 247 Dialogue with Dawn
It is said that the Infernal Hell is the last hell of the eight hot hells in Buddhism, also known as the Avici Hell.The flesh and blood of the suffering beings in this hell will be mixed with the molten lava in the fierce fire, and the overwhelming pain will continue without interruption until the end of time, hence the name Infinite.

I checked the memory of the demon warlock who was burned to ashes. He couldn't tell how many days, months, and years his consciousness had wandered in the darkness of pain.

According to my calculation of the external time, the real time should only be a few days, but in an environment completely devoid of light and sound, the subjective time of human beings will elongate as if it were endless.Especially in his view, there is no possibility of redemption for himself, and despair is doomed to never end.

His mind collapsed quickly, but even the collapse did not relieve him from the pain.He even gradually thought that he was originally a suffering thing that existed in this darkness, and that his life as a human was just a momentary delusion of his own.

After that, he reappeared in this stronghold "intact" together with other demon warlocks, but he seemed completely unaware that he was just a phantom of death repeating himself, and he was just carrying out the name-calling in the stronghold just like before his death. Patrols are actually wandering activities.

No wonder they forget what happened to them in the past.This is the psychological self-defense instinct at work.Once the truth is perceived, the mind falls apart again.

Even a demon warlock who unconsciously yearns for shattering is terribly afraid of being thrown into such an endless hell.

In my plan, in order for the siren to survive after I "death", I will inject "pollution" into my body at the last moment, making myself undead.But at this moment, I can't help but think - I will probably enter such a hell in the future.

A great horror gripped my heart tightly.

I forced myself to suppress those distracting thoughts, and went to kill a few demon warlocks who fled in the distance.In this way, all the enemies in this stronghold were emptied.I turned and headed to the top room where the undead are kept.

The memory of the demon warlock also provides more important information, which is the purpose of dawn.Although I don't know what the specific technical principle is, his purpose is undoubtedly the "New World Project"...or the "Dawn Project", but the results are the same, and they all need to pass more than half of the human race. Transform into undead to strengthen the awareness of other humans, enabling them to recognize the hidden world.

He just didn't know why he felt that he could become a ruler in such a new world. To put it bluntly, in the current hidden world, he could only be regarded as an escaped warlock and criminal leader.

There is not a single person in the room on the top floor where the undead are kept. It can also be said that there are "people" everywhere.Dozens of barreled transparent glass containers are placed here. The material of the containers seems to be the same as the isolation material of the Capital Underground Research Institute, which can block "pollution".The inside of the container was filled with black ashes, and from those ashes, I captured countless emotions of pain and despair crowded like the pressure of deep sea water.

These are all undead who were burned to ashes, including the undead who were transported into this fog from the outside world, and there are also subordinates who were killed by dawn.

Where is this "stronghold that hasn't happened yet"?There are obviously no living people in this stronghold, and the patrolling people are all wandering ghosts who appear under the influence of pollution and think they are living people.

Li Ming didn't seem to tell the other subordinates about the change in this stronghold, so it couldn't be that he didn't even notice it.Could it be that after noticing the changes here, he discovered that the group of demon warlocks who were supposed to be traitors were actually working diligently, so he himself pretended that "nothing happened"?That would be too rough nerves.

Fortunately, these undead people in front of me are stage two undead people who can be dealt with as long as they have the power of the true spirit, and they happen to be within the scope of my treatment.

It's not necessarily a coincidence, it's just that the undead of stage three are usually difficult to make, and the syringe I carry can only transform the undead of stage two at most.Now that Liming has parted ways with Baiju, it is even more inconvenient to make a stage three undead.And if it's just to increase the number of undead people who can produce "pollution", there's no need to upgrade to a level as high as stage three.

I raised my right hand, and the power of the indigo blue true spirit appeared in my hand, turning into the shape of Dao Gang, and then even the shape of Dao Gang was changed, turning into pure destructive light, and then towards Launched in all directions.

All the containers were shattered by the destructive light, and the ashes inside were also engulfed by the light, and the "pollution" melted away like fine snow meeting hot water.When the light faded, all the ashes turned into ordinary ashes, not undead who suffered eternally.

This stronghold is considered useless for Liming.

In addition, I also asked the siren to "release" the spirit fragments I got earlier.As she said before, those spirit fragments are phantoms with entities, so-called "fakes".In other words, they are all products of pollution phenomena.I didn’t know at the beginning, it’s okay to accidentally let the siren eat it by mistake, but now I can spit out as much as I can, if there is any strange reaction in the “stomach”, it will be bad.

But I didn't wait until I spit it out, and the fake spirit body fragments disappeared after I killed all the undead.Those undead people are the support of the pollution phenomenon that happened here, and once the pollution phenomenon is over, there will naturally be no room for the fake spirit body fragments to continue to exist.

The entity phantom phenomenon is completely over here.

Fortunately, the memory information obtained from it before is still with Siren.The siren has already grasped the specific locations of the other four strongholds, as long as I "visit" them one by one, I will definitely be able to cause huge damage to Liming's plan.

"The 'pollution' vortex is the top priority of Dawn's plan. As long as all the undead people in the other four strongholds are killed, the vortex will lose its energy supply, and it can no longer be maintained, and the plan will be completely bankrupt." Siren said , "But on the other hand, if all strongholds cannot be destroyed within a certain period of time, the vortex will be fully charged, and Dawn will use this to achieve his intention here."

"How much time is this 'certain time'?" I asked.

"Twenty hours minimum," she said.

"Enough." I said firmly.

Now that I have grasped the location of each stronghold, let alone twenty hours, two hours is enough time for me.The only thing to worry about is whether you will encounter Liming and another mysterious strongman on the way. The ideal situation is to be able to deal with all the strongholds before they react.

However, the reality is very harsh - and here I am in the worst possible situation.

Just when I was about to turn around and leave this stronghold, I immediately felt orange-red light and surging heat coming from behind me, as well as the extremely familiar powerful spiritual power.Looking back, a three-meter-high fireball condensed out of thin air on the ashes-covered ground. At first glance, it even looked like a miniature star, and the ground near it was gasified.

As soon as the "star" appeared, the huge heat radiated caused the room on the top floor to explode, and the ceiling and surrounding walls were blown to pieces.I didn't take any damage from the explosion, but just watched the fireball, which changed shape rapidly, and finally became like a burning man,

"I just said why this stronghold was suddenly disconnected. Demon Li Duo, it's you." Li Ming's voice came from the flame figure, probably because the source of the sound was in the flames. The voice was very strange. Low and low, "It seems that you have made a big fuss here."

This is a doppelganger?No, I have destroyed many avatars, and the flame in front of me doesn't smell like an avatar.And what Liming is good at is only flames, even if he knows how to clone, he can't make such a powerful finished product.He probably just set up his own "Ignition Flame" rune in this stronghold, and then manipulated the flame from a very long distance to shape it into a human shape.

In addition, as long as the area covered by his flame and high temperature is covered by his consciousness, no matter where his body is, he can now see my face and hear my voice.I just don't know what method he used to transmit the voice.

Destroying this flame is not impossible to attack his body, but the damage transmitted through it can't form a decent effect, so it doesn't make much sense... While doing calculations in my heart, I deliberately said something like this, "I didn't expect The leader of the dignified eve still wants to hide behind this kind of thing and talk to me. I'm sorry, I was wrong, there is no eve. Now you are just a bereaved dog who can't even keep the loyalty of his subordinates."

"Hmph... So, the reason why my organization suffered such a huge damage is because of your existence. Without you, let alone whether the dawn dream will be breached, the Security Bureau will not even We treat it as a real threat." Li Ming's voice was extremely gloomy.

"Not only your organization, but your plan here is also doomed to fail." I said.

"It's not good to be so full of words. You seem to have come here alone, but I have the advantage in terms of combat power. Even as long as I have that intention, I don't need to appear in front of you, and you will die in front of you now." Here," he said, "but before that, I need to ask you one thing."

He doesn't seem to be lying, he really has a way to threaten my life right now.I raised my guard even further, and asked, "You don't think I'll answer anything if you ask me."

"Don't worry, what I want to ask is not a secret, but a very simple question." He seemed to smile, and then asked a question I didn't expect, "Are you planning to join me?"

"What?" I was completely unprepared, my mind turned quickly, and then came up with a possibility, and made up a lie on the spot, "Do you want that severed hand? Give up, that severed hand has already I tried to send it to the cosmic space, and you can no longer touch it."

"Is that so? That doesn't matter." He actually showed a disapproving attitude, "The visitor's severed hand is very important, but neither I nor Baiju will need it anymore in the next plan." Something, and you did us a great favor by throwing it out of the reach of the Security Service."

This is consistent with my past speculation that what they value is not the severed hand itself, but the "pollution" in the world caused by the severed hand.Now they can get "pollution" by adding undead people, and severed hands have become super dangerous items that are difficult to handle.

"Have you ever thought that there is no irreconcilable conflict between you and me?" Li Ming continued, "What are you fighting with me for? Is it for the benefit of the Security Bureau? Or is it for justice? Since You mixed up with Lie Que, presumably for the sake of justice. But the Security Bureau is the organization farthest away from justice, and if you stay in the Security Bureau, you are helping the evildoers."

"After killing you and Bai Ju, I will naturally go to work with Lie Que to eliminate the corrupt elements of the Security Bureau." I said, "And even if the Security Bureau is crooked, it doesn't mean you can represent justice. Put more than Half of the population is transformed into undead, and less than half of the population is allowed to have advanced awareness. After that, how much chaos will occur, and how many more people will die. What will be satisfied in the end is nothing but the ruling desire of the warlock organization. interests of the few."

"No, it's for the benefit of the majority," he said.

"What benefits can those who die and those who cannot afford to die get?" I asked back.

"You have to learn to look at this matter from a long-term perspective. Although more than half of the population will become undead in the future, and a considerable number of humans will die in the turmoil, the surviving people will continue to proliferate. The number of future generations is destined to far exceed the current population. The sacrifice of just one era can benefit countless eras in the future. If this is not the interests of the majority, what is it?” He said in a provocative tone, “ And our civilization will be greatly sublimated due to the pioneering work of this era. Think about it, if all human beings are warlocks, human civilization will sail into the sea of ​​stars and become an interstellar civilization. It is no longer an empty talk of science fiction, no ?"

"Are you trying to say that you are doing this for the sake of human civilization?" I asked.

Hearing this, he nodded without thinking, "Exactly."

"No, you're lying." I said without hesitation.

"Why did you say that?" He seemed to be waiting for me to challenge his reason and logic with rational words.

But I have absolutely no intention of confronting him in that area.He is a leader who is good at standing in front of others and conquering people's hearts with eloquent speeches. I can't compete with him in speaking skills.

So I simply said what I felt.

"I can't feel any love for people from your words," I said.

"..." He was silent for a while, and then said, "I really hate guys like you."
