Chapter 25: Liquid Gold
γForeword. γ
[Gold is used to spoil the lover, silver is used to reward the maid, copper is just a merchant's trick, steel, only steel, cold steel is the king of metal! ]
--Rudyard Kipling]
The stars climb over the barbed wire fence and bang on the door of the security room.
A slightly younger night watchman came out, but......
Xingchen didn't know Arabic at all, so he had to communicate with him in broken English. He pointed to the department store that was burning in the distance, and the young man saw the scars and blood stains on the foreign traveler, and finally realized that something was wrong. Hurriedly ran out to contact the police and fire brigade.
See him run away.
Xingchen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The security room was very neatly packed, warm air conditioning and half-night supper. There is also a night pirate movie used to refresh myself, and I am still an intern who has just started my job.
"Adam."
"Living, Parents, Friends, Education, Experience, Life."
The stars muttered these words of unknown meaning, but they were like treasures.
Little by little, towards the roaring hydroelectric power station, towards the depths of the large construction facilities of Abbe Falls.
......
......
Su Aya stumbled and fell forward involuntarily, she didn't know how far she had gone.
Fifty meters?
Five hundred meters?
Five thousand meters?
"What determines the difference between us? Su Aya... Why? Why don't you stop? Why? Are you a fool? I know I'm hurting you! I know I'm toying you! Obviously ......" Jinhua's tone was filled with incredible emotion.
Su Aya: "No, no, no, no... No, no, no... Don't make a mistake about anything."
She braced herself up and struggled to get up.
Health remaining...
γ1/100γ
But it's like unlocking the lock blood plug-in. There is no sign of a pullback again. But...
Her stamina starts to drop...
"If you can't hold it anymore... Just use your will to overcome it, and I will never admit defeat! Let alone... Jinhua ...... Your lies can't hide me! I'm smart! β
Jinhua stopped talking...
Su Aya began to move forward again, she was covered in tatters, from time to time overloaded static electricity jumped out of those rags, she felt like she was almost ripe... It's like a piece of barbecue. The excess radiation made her body miserable. But...... But......
"Your soul power has a range of only ten meters! You said..."
Su Aya shook her head, trying to stay awake.
"Why am I so powerless? There is only one reason, Jinhua... There's only one reason... You're dead...... The remains were buried all over the tunnel to affect my mobility. Now, you and I are the same. They are all lonely souls and wild ghosts left in this world, and they should have been buried in the ground a long time ago, with the loess as their companion... I heard... I hear you! β
Su Aya let out a deafening roar...
"You're begging me for help!"
......
......
Xingchen's legs and feet were weak, and his body involuntarily staggered forward.
Bang----
Hanging on the iron guardrail, I saw in a trance the magnificent sight of a raging waterfall falling into the Nile River at a height of 100 meters.
"True, pure, beautiful."
"Reputation, hard work, success."
He muttered over and over again these words that could never cross paths with him again.
"People don't know how to cherish until they lose."
"The same is true of my companions......"
He remembered the large wardrobe in the office, in the Pleasure House. A few cheongsam investigator suits of different sizes were like a few more deep pits in his broken soul.
Holding his body and gasping for air, he felt his heart beat extremely fast. Time seemed to get faster, and he couldn't grasp anything. In fact, it was his brain that slowed down in thinking, which is why this illusion appeared, just like the "hero's" [thinking acceleration], until ......
Until Adam walked out of the supermarket intact. Embarrassed, his body is covered with gold ornaments, and his eyes have regained a clear and transparent feeling from the chaos.
"Stars!"
"Let me hear your final answer!"
"Just use 'wailing' and 'screaming' to respond!"
The waterfall could not hide the loud gunshots.
Bang------!
This is the answer of the stars!
"Come on! Adam! β
Xingchen's eyes gleamed with electricity, firing the last bullet of M1991.
The complex circuitry and control panel in front of him have been changed beyond recognition under his hands. In front of the repeater and the massive substation, on the steel bridge under the waterfall, he heard the rain.
"I hate the rain, Adam. It's not the 'nasty' that an uncle with a kitchen knife said in a shonen manga. β
"Everything would become wet and muddy, as if there was no boundary between good and evil, and the black mud and white walls would be dyed one color. Exactly as you'd expect from the world. It rained all day."
He sat slumped under the iron guardrail, with a large reddened integrated circuit behind him, his eyes half-drooping, and the contact lens in his left eye had long since been thrown away. Now, with the vision of the right eye alone, it is estimated that I can't even catch the opponent's fist.
Xingchen spat out. Gritting his teeth, he tore open the sleeve of the robotic arm and exposed it to the air.
Adam was standing at the other end of the bridge, he saw the stars, and his old friend was waiting for him... He was ecstatic and delusional.
"Can you understand me? You...... You know?! By civilized means! Achieve savage goals! My philosophy is that I can't be more 'human' than 'human'! β
Adam seemed to be convincing himself, and he was convincing the stars. He nodded sickly as if he had a hysterical disorder.
"Yes, the stars are the ones who know me best! It must be the one who agrees with me the most! He's a wise guy! Absolutely understands my mind! β
The stars opened their eyes and fought hard.
"No, Adam. No, no, no, no......"
The sneer of the stars made Adam faint, and he felt a real fear, a kind of astonishment and horror that had nowhere to turn to, the first in the world.
It's called "loneliness".
No one approves of him, no one approves of him.
There was no one on the same side as him, and if it was his subordinates, slaves, and innocent people who were used, it was only the worship of Adam's great power and immortality.
"No, no, no, no......" Xingchen could still say a few words to his mortal enemy, he was like a candle about to burn out, giving out its last bit of light.
"Thank you, Adam."
Thank you?
Thank?
Adam incredulously, "You! Are you taking pity on me!! β
"Nope." Xingchen was in a calm mood, "The sun does not discriminate against every life, it is equal to all things, and all things have wisdom and meaning of existence. Adam, even a creature like a bat that cannot see the light, has to rely on the blessings of the sun to survive. So I want to thank you. You make me understand ......"
Xingchen suddenly roared.
"Creatures like you! Can only be killed by the flames of the sun! You're out of place with other things! That's right! You're born to be wonderful! Enjoy the loneliness! Bishaw! β
"No one understands you?"
"Loneliness?"
"Lonely?!"
The robotic arm of the stars let out an earth-shattering roar!
"That's what you deserve!"
Adam's face changed, but he immediately took out his hole cards! He pinched the unconscious Hua Ying from behind!
That reckless girl!
The assistant who struggled to find the stars on a rainy night!
It fell into the hands of Adam!
"I know what you want to do! Stars! β
Adam's expression was gloomy, as if he had calculated everything!
"The unstable environment of the power station will constrain my lightning superpowers! And that robotic arm in your hands! That powerful energy aggregate! Think I'm in the dark?! β
With one arm like a spear, the stars aimed at Adam!
And Adam carried Hua Ying's neck, swaying left and right as a cover, his face full of pride.
"What's wrong? She's still angry. She's a big living person, and she was still alive just now, shouting, 'Senior! Predecessor! Stupid things like that! Looking at her anxious look, is she in love with you?! Stars! Hahahahaha! β
The stars were silent.
Adam broke the last reliance of the stars!
"Tokamak-type micro-fusion reactors! That's your last hole card! Use the powerful magnetic confinement to activate this second 'heart' with absolute power! Let this power plant give you the necessary conditions to 'ignite'! That's your plan! As for..."
Adam sneered.
"As for how you're going to beat me? Blowing that arm up? Die with me?! Stars! You're thinking so beautifully! Even if I provide you with dozens of tons and hundreds of tons of output, I will be beaten into a puddle of blood with my fist! There's no way to stop my rebirth! I am God!! β
"It doesn't matter if you bring one or two to the funeral."
The words of the stars poured cold water on Adam.
"Yes, I want your life to die, even if your assistant dies, I know that letting you out alive will be an unspeakable disaster for the whole world. The contradiction between humans and superpowers will become more and more intense, and even a third world war may occur, Adam! I've never underestimated your abilities, so !!"
The nuclear reactor in the robotic arm is operational!
Cold sweat broke out on Adam's face.
"No!! You idiot! You want us all to die here?! β
Xingchen took off his wig and revealed his true face, his body had already been damaged by the radiation from the implanted fusion reactor, and Hua Ying and Xingcai were unaware of it. He is holding on to death, and he is trying to send Bishaw to hell within a few months!
Adam hurriedly left Hua Ying! Turn around and run!
"You're crazy!"
At that moment, Xingchen suddenly pulled down the electric switch! A powerful magnetic anomaly gripped Adam! The precious metal ornaments on his body flew with him! Stick it on the coil group and can't move!
Xingchen: "Don't try to escape! β
"Actually!!" Adam's expression was terrifying: "It's actually this!!" β
The earrings were about to rip off Adam's ears, and the gold bracelet and all kinds of accessories carried half of his body to the coil!
"Pixiu !!"
Adam called his priests in terror.
But......
For some reason, it's like a precious metal loses its "value" and is assimilated into a magnet by an electric field, but it doesn't work!
Hua Ying can't die!
The stars reminded themselves again and again to put away that cruel and resolute heart!
There are three turbojet engines hidden in the robotic arm! The unimaginable power of the fusion core allowed him to reach Adam in an instant!
At that moment..... Time seems to be slowing down.
Imagine! Enter the realm where fire and power become one!
Breathe deeply.... Roaring engines and magnetic restraints!
Bang--------
He smashed Adam's head to pieces!!
Just one punch! Even Adam's broken body flew out and landed on the bank of the dam not far away! Smash out the shocking holes! The stone sputtered and split into countless pieces!
But that's not enough!
The stars staggered and followed!
Halfway through the run, I ran to the bank of the open dam, only to find that the body showed no signs of healing.
Is the vitality overdrawn?
Is Adam dead?
Died like that?
But......
The tip of the star's nose is cold. An indescribable sense of fear arose in my heart!
It's raining!!!!!!!
Look at the corpses again!
Where's Adam!?Is it just the corpse of a security guard?
What I hit just now was just an illusion that Adam made with thunder! Manipulating the ghosts and walking corpses! to trick your own puppet!!
Adam sat on the edge of the embankment and stared straight into the bottomless abyss, "You're dying, stars."
"Ah!!!!!!h
The stars let out a feeble roar!
......
......
"Also... It's not that hard, is it..."
Su Aya has become a standard "dead duck with a hard mouth" shape, and she has seen the end of the road... See that "firework".
But her stamina is also exhausted, and her will... Followed the health to the end.
It's just a little close... It's not close.
The appearance of the game characters is extremely terrifying. Those two dark circles and shriveled skin looked like a walking corpse.
Jinhua: "What has supported you to get to where you are now?" It's incredible......"
"Pain? Tribulations? These... I've been through this for a long time..."A hoarse wail came from Su Aya's throat. She could vaguely see that there was an extra category in the UI column...
Hanging under health and stamina... Mana.
After the defeat of both the body and the will.
"It's my soul..."
Su Aya slightly understood the meaning of mana.
It was falling at a constant speed, supporting her through the last stretch of the road, and the multimedia panel was alerting her to the temperature of the corridor.
γ314.1CΒ°γ
Ironically, this string of numbers is the serial number of her Jack the Ripper's mutant gene. It is also the extreme temperature that humans can withstand. Wrap in a thick quilt and throw it in the microwave at temperature.
Walking to the end, Su Aya looked at her hands, ** her face, like an old man in his prime.
"Now, we're all the same. Jinhua... They're all middle-aged, no... I'm probably going to be a little older...... I don't know if this pain can catch up with you..."
In that narrow storage room, the walls around it are inlaid with a restrained electromagnetic circuit of nuclear suppression, and the humming sound made during work can almost make Su Aya's soul leave her body, I don't know if it's a hallucination or a reality...
Several times she had seen the spirit of her arm come out of her body. Almost out of this broken body.
There are dots of light particles floating in the air, and they gradually form a phantom, just like the 3D projection device used by Jinhua, which has become the appearance of Sister Cat.
"You're... Bastard ......"
Su Aya's consciousness began to blur: "Yes... If I weren't a bastard, I wouldn't have gotten this far."
Jinhua's eyes glistened with tears.
[For the first time, she felt that if there was a person in the world, it was worth her to continue to live. γ
"It's a pity... You can't impress me... I know your little tricks! Know what you're thinking...... Close it? Unless you can beat me... But my soul power happens to be the most restrained existence for you! β
Don't wait for Jinhua to finish...
Su Aya took out the piece of wool gold in her bag and began to chisel the wall...
"You... You idiot! β
Jin Hua blushed angrily, she looked at the guy who looked like a dry corpse, and was using the last bit of strength, as if no one could persuade him, and dug deeper.
"Where are your bones...? I... I've got to take it back... World War III? Destruction of humanity? And I... What does it matter? Su Aya felt the deadly heat coming from the gold nuggets, and it spread to her body with a sharp pain along with the flying stones, the walls that had become loose due to the high temperature, but she tightly let that indelible sense of mission move in her heart.
"I promised... Promise to smash it... To bring his adoptive mother back...... Other... I don't care."
As her feeble magic dries up...
That mana was suddenly like a tide, and it was full!
[Your [Mana] stat is increased to A+]
Su Aya looked back at Jinhua, and in that person's eyes... It's like a star shining in the sky...
......
......
The stars have run out of means!
Despair gradually consumed his heart!
His eyes were distracted, and his expression was terrifying, as if there was no way back.
Adam pulled a tube of the needle out of his pocket. It was the "immortal peach" he had mentioned.
"Do you want it? If it's a 'peach', maybe it can bring you back to life. As long as you open your mouth, it's yours."
"Less verbose!" The stars rushed forward!
With a flick of his feeble fist, Adam got up and was one step ahead! A punch in the face of the stars!
Arm length is not a grade at all!
Broken teeth fly! Superman's strength almost deformed the star's face!
"Huh--- ha--- huh--- haha----"
Hoarse and lying on the ground, Xingchen's consciousness began to drift, his face was pale, there was only despair in his eyes, and his breathing was full of a miserable wail, like a terminally ill patient who was about to be sent to a funeral home.
When Hua Ying woke up from a daze, she didn't know where the glasses had been lost, she couldn't see clearly, she only knew that her head had become cloudy because of the electric shock, and she couldn't tell who the two people in the distance were.
"Xingchen finally fell off the tightrope this time. His plan...... A complete failure! "Adam clapped himself like a play." After a single output, your fusion reactor goes into cooling, there is no threat of 'self-detonation' in the first place, it is an industrial grade product, and if there is a possibility of nuclear leakage, it will not be made at all! You want to scare me! You want to save that little girl's life! You're still so naΓ―ve!! β
Xingchen's right eye was also deformed by the punch just now, and the contact lens was finally removed, and his vision seemed to be covered with a layer of fog.
I can't see clearly......
Out of sight!
"Scream harder!!!"
Adam stomped on the star's belly!
He almost vomited his stomach, and the blood sprayed out with the sturgeon meat!
The miserable cry made Hua Ying's head sober up all of a sudden!
In the distance, she saw the man howling on the embankment...... The poor fellow, whose hair had fallen out, was still shouting hoarsely......
"Kazakura !!"
It's like the last struggle before death!
The stars fluttered at Adam's feet, clenched the contact lenses and cigarettes in his hands, and threw them away!
Syllable----
The blood-stained cigarette slapped on Hua Ying's face, and she seemed to be scared silly. Can't accept this fact.
It's like hearing "The world is going to be destroyed."
"You're such a nostalgic person." Adam's tone was soft, as if looking at his lover, "I know you're still here."
From Xingchen's pocket, he found a lighter, smashed it with one foot, and found the gold coin!
With the precious metal in hand, Adam became confident, and even if it was just a little, he could re-summon the deadly Pixiu.
"Mobile!!"
The call of the stars waned.
"Mobile !!"
Hua Ying seemed to wake up the stars and took out the phone in a panic.
"Stars!" Constellation has arrived at the scene, and her hands have only been bandaged simply! Scream! "Damn bastard!!"
Through Hua Ying's GPS positioning, Xingcai can find here. But......
Pixiu soars like a cloud! Be the first to attack!
"Scourge!"
Starlight calls out to her soul! Linger under a pitch-black umbrella! It can't do anything about this rainy night!
Thunder burst out!
Scourge sprays rays of energy! A fierce confrontation with it!
The huge impact of sound and light obscured everyone's sight!
Flames and lightning exploded with a resounding sound from predators!
The umbrella slowly twists and deforms in the shock! Raindrops on the cigarette sticks on the star's mouth will weaken by one point every time!
Pixiu, driven by Adam, also slowly began to get tired. At last......
The two of them actually lost their strength at the same time.
......
......
The sudden shock hit the inside of the corridor.
Su Aya chiseled open most of the wall, the temperature of the gold nuggets rose to 800 degrees Celsius, which had reached the melting point, and her palms formed a layer of pitch-black charcoal. Still not giving up... I still want to bring out some of Jinhua's bones!
Jinhua: "That's enough... Enough is enough..."
Su Aya: "It's not enough! β
Jinhua: "That's enough... You're going to die...... I don't want to...... I don't want to lose you anymore..."
She found it!
Su Aya saw the bone that was as white as jade... She tried with all her strength to pull it out, but she couldn't...
Jinhua's soul power still affects her, and after Jinhua's death... This curse is rooted in every part of her.
And Su Aya looked at the slowly melting gold nuggets, as well as the little bone meal on it.
Suddenly I understood the creative director, the big white cat that gave him...
Liquid gold.
[He said that every star in the sky has a different appearance, and so is man. γ
[The original body of the Jinhua cat monster recorded in the legend, as long as you eat its meat, you can lift its curse. γ
Su Aya took a bite of the pale "popsicle" in her yellow-blue blind eyes, and Jinhua took away her sense of taste, but the pain in her heart poured into her stomach all the way through her lips and teeth. Finally... She's whole again.
Your Soul Skill has been promoted. γ
γJinhua... Can't understand your thoughts, but she agrees...]
You have successfully interpreted the meaning of "hero" with your actions. γ
......
......
"Hah. What can a cripple do? β
The scales of victory were completely tilted in Adam's favor. And when Hua Ying rushed up with her weak telekinesis, she called Adam to knock him down with one punch. Tumbling and almost falling off the waterfall!
"Don't try to escape!"
Adam is inhuman again! Rushed to Xingcai and grabbed Xingcai's neck with one arm.
At that moment......
Dawn arrived as scheduled, and the sun slowly climbed over the distant hills of Bahirdar.
Hua Ying struggled to climb the cliff......
She saw her dying seniors.
She saw Starlight, whose face was so blue that she could barely breathe.
She......
Recall the instructions and style of the predecessors.
Cell phone? Cell phone!
I don't know how it turned out though!
Before Hua Ying stood still, she used all her strength to throw her phone at Adam!
Swish-----
But let Adam Superman's perception cling to it!
Hua Ying's face changed greatly! It seemed to frighten Adam's fierce eyes!
"It won't be long before you're going to die. Don't worry, wait until I'm done with this ......"
"That's not for sure!" Constellation's two unhealed arms were torn open from Adam's hands.
Let your phone attract attention! Adam looked back in shock, only to see a faint green ripple of telekinetic power! Take that pack of cigarettes... Stuffed into Constellation's mouth!
And......
"Lighter...... Lighter ......"
It's like he's seen a natural enemy! Frightened, I want to find out where Xingcai hid the lighter!
The fear of death, the fear of deadly threats! I want to go to the idea of living in the "ordinary world"! Makes him obsessively search for lighters, thus missing precious time to kill Constellation!
Break open the palm of Starlight's hand, and he found it! It's like finding a few insects in front of you who don't know what to do, the last hope!
Crush the lighter! With a sickly smile, Adam came back to his senses but his face changed drastically!
But.....
Why?
Why???
Adam saw the star's mouth......
The cigarette has actually been lit!!
Xingcai muttered, "You're in trouble!! β
Unbelievable, he let the light that can't be ignored attract attention!
Hua Ying hugged the stars......
Crying bitterly, he held up the contact lens of the stars in his hand!
And Pixiu can't cover the sky with rain clouds, that sun !!
The sun where all beings are equal!
I am refractive through contact lens, focusing! Ignited the tobacco in Starlight's mouth!
And Adam had already heard the funeral eulogy read out to him by Constellation!
"Just smell it."
Escape!!
Run!!
Just escape into the rain! Scourge will not dare to follow up!
Adam's brain exploded, as if this heavy rain was about to stop! It became his last life talisman!
Starlight's mouth and nose are smoky, and her words are full of fire!
Like a newborn baby, Adam has an unspeakable fear of this unknown world, and he looks for cover everywhere. It seems that as long as it survives this attack! Victory is his!
Constellation: "I know how many people you've killed!" Surely there is no need for Tianshu's judgment! β
Her hair was floating with the hot air because of the sudden rise in heat!
"Listen to me!"
Adam's face turned pale.
Where will it come from?
Is it a ray attack?
No way!?
There's cover, it's a big deal when she attacks! I jumped off a cliff, and superhuman regeneration would still keep me alive, and then! Consume the compensatory product of her soul power! She's out of cigarettes! It's time to fight back!
Right!
Adam Bishaw! Can live!
Constellation: "This is me who lynched you!" β
But...
Why is it so hot?
Adam looked down at him! Let the rain-soaked levees! The hot mist is starting to rise!
Is it actually down there!!???
Xingcai's roar was accompanied by crying: "This is the weak and powerless brother who has been spoiled since he was a child, and the meat he brought back is distributed to him!" I'm biting my bones to pieces! β
Run! Run!! Run!!! Adam just wanted to take a step!
Unexpectedly, the rock of the embankment turned from red to yellow in an instant, and from yellow to brilliant gold!
The Scourge Dog pounces suddenly! I bit him on the ankle.
Poof------
Scourge can be directly exposed to rainwater???
No?!
Adam's leg has melted!
That's magma! Scourge has opened a tunnel! Melted the whole layer of rock! A path has been broken! 1,200 degrees of lava paddles! The rain evaporated before it even fell on it!
"Ahh!!!h
Adam's calves are stuck in lava! Instant dissolution vaporization! The pain in his heart drove him crazy! But then the scourge bit his thigh! β
Star roared.
"Does it hurt!!"
"That's right! This is me who feels the pain of my brother's skin!! β
"Three things above!"
"Damn...... Damn it...... Damn!!!! Adam let out a dying wail, and he saw the needle, the peach, which Xingchen was holding in his hand...... Suddenly, there was peace of mind.
Use it up!
Use it up! Stars! Such......
So you and I...... It's one kind of person!
Use ......
The stars used up the last of their strength and smashed it to pieces.
Xingcai: "The above three things, save them until your soul returns to Huangquan, and you will have a good aftertaste when you repent in hell!" β
"Finally!"
"This is me who is about to say goodbye to you."
In Adam's terrible screams, in the eyes of the stars, childhood friends, young friends, and growing up, brothers who share life and death. They all turned into a wisp of green smoke in the lava.
In the eulogy of the stars.
Adam Bishaw!
Death!
