Chapter 155: The Prison of the Living (5)
Zhao Gao raised his head, stunned.
The unscathed young man Shi Shiran stood in the elevator, dressed in white and spotless, like a guest who had just taken the elevator to the meeting.
Why is the Night King in an elevator? Who was the Night King he killed?
Zhao Gao subconsciously went to see the Night King who was killed by himself...... The latter's body was still on the floor, the severed head with its hollow eyes.
The bloodstained face was exactly the same as the man in the elevator.
Zhao Gao coughed up blood, the Night King's bone spurs nailed him firmly to the pillar, Zhao Gao held the tail end of the spike and tried to pull it out, the bone spur penetrated his shoulder blades, stuck in it and couldn't twitch, Zhao Gao's face turned pale, let out a low roar of pain, and gurgling blood dripped down the long thorn.
"This ...... How can it be? What exactly are you? β
"How...... After a few minutes, you forgot who I am? The young man smiled, stepped out of the elevator, stepped forward, looked down at the corpse on the floor, and shook his head.
"Tut-tut...... What an ugly death. The Night King lifted the head from the floor, stared into the dead man's eyes, and sighed, "Who made you so careless?" That's good...... Got yourself in with it, right? It's a shame to play a game and kill yourself, it's a shame. β
He seemed to be talking to someone else, and he seemed to be talking to himself.
"You are useless, even if you are a king, after you die, it is no different from a pile of dead meat, those beings who once surrendered to you will no longer fear you, they will only compete to eat your corpse." The Night King casually threw the head in his hand on the ground, and his head swirled and rolled to Zhao Gao's feet.
The Night King squatted down in front of Zhao Gao, squinted his eyes and smiled, "How does it feel to kill the Demon King?" Am I being nice to you? How does it feel to get a taste of revenge, and to be alone for a few minutes on the highest peak of the world, sitting on the whole world? β
Zhao Gao stared at him, trying to find something different from the Night King from the person in front of him, but he failed...... This young man is exactly the same as the Night King, both in appearance and tone, and even in the level of madness.
Who is this person? And who was the one you killed? Could it be that there are two Night Kings? Is the Night King actually a pair of twin brothers?
"I told you, if a brave man wants to defeat the demon king, he must become a demon king, and in any RPG game, the final outcome is actually a knight who becomes a dragon, and then waits for the next knight to kill it." The Night King squatted in front of Zhao Gao to look at him, he reached out and grabbed the bone spur nailed to Zhao Gao's shoulder, "Do you know why this is happening?" β
"Because it's so cool to be a demon king!" The Night King laughed, pinching the bone spurs and stirring in Zhao Gao's wounds, "The brave man defeated the demon king just to save his country and his princess, he can't be selfish, if the brave man is selfish, he will be scolded by everyone, because the brave must sacrifice himself for others, must be selfless and dedicated, and must shine greatly, but the demon king is different, the demon king can have many, many countries, many, many princesses, he wants whichever he wants, once the brave sits on that throne, he will immediately realize how ridiculous he was before......"
"Don't you think your previous self is ridiculous?" The Night King asked softly, he grabbed the bone spur and slowly pulled it out, Zhao Gao was so pained that he couldn't say a word.
"You...... You...... Result...... What is it? β
Zhao Gao hissed.
The Night King suddenly pulled out the bone spurs, and Zhao Gao threw himself on the floor.
"Me? I am the king, I am the king of the night. The young man in white played with the bloody thorns on his fingertips, and he paced in the tourist hall, "I am the king of this world, the god above the ghosts!" β
"That'...... So...... He...... What about him? Zhao Gao trembled and stretched out his finger to the corpse beside him.
"He? He was nothing more than a corpse, a soulless shell. The Night King shrugged.
"The Night King...... In fact...... More than one? Zhao Gao asked.
The young man in white was silent for a few seconds, then snapped his fingers, "Oh, you found out, that's right, of course there is more than one Night King." β
"How many Night Kings are there?" Zhao Gao asked.
"Is this...... There is only one Night King, and there can be an infinite number of them. The Night King pointed to the corpse on the floor, "He and I are both children of the gods, we share common abilities and memories, in a sense, we are just the same person, he is a copy of me, and I am a copy of him. β
"Gods?" Zhao Gao asked, the Night King claimed to be a god more than once, Zhao Gao originally thought that this was just the crazy boast of the madman, but now he realized that the god in the Night King's mouth seemed to be a real thing, and he had been narrating a real creature, "Is there really a god in this world?" β
"Of course it is, as a reward for successfully killing me once, I can show you the true face of the gods, do you want to see them?" The Night King laughed.
"I want to see it." Zhao Gao supported his body and sat up.
βBingoοΌβ The Night King laughed, "Mortals, keep your eyes open and watch well, you only have this one chance...... Look at your feet, that's where it all starts and ends! β
As soon as the young man in white finished speaking, the floor under the feet of the two of them shook, and Zhao Gao saw that the floor under his feet slowly moved to both sides. Beneath the 88th floor of the Sightseeing Hall is a massive structure known as the "Time Tunnel", a cylindrical cavity that runs through the entire interior of the building, which serves as the building's atrium, from the 56th to the 88th floor. The atrium is surrounded by more than 500 hotel rooms and restaurants, and when you look down from the top of the building, you can see the neon lights embedded in the inner wall of the building's atrium, like a beautiful time and space tunnel.
In times of peace, the time tunnel of Jin Mao Tower is a world-famous scenic spot, and countless people have lamented it as "golden annual rings".
Zhao Gao sat on the transparent glass floor, as if suspended in the air hundreds of meters in the air, and he looked down at the bottom of the building's atrium, trembling all over.
His gaze passed through the space-time tunnel, and he saw the creature at the end of the tunnel that did not belong to the human world.
Zhao Gao said in a trembling voice: "My God......"
The hideous god was entrenched in the atrium of the building, and countless pairs of dense eyes instantly appeared on its back, and in that second, Zhao Gao looked at countless pairs of eyes, and he couldn't help but tremble. Thousands of humanoids rose from the god's body, reaching out their hands toward the top of the building, letting out a piercing and high-pitched cry, before falling down and reuniting into one.
They appear and disappear, layer upon layer, like a large swarm of maggots.
This is a terrifyingly large creature, Zhao Gao can't find its head and tail, it is just a large wriggling lump of flesh, the body is deeply rooted in the body of the Jin Mao Tower, the concrete wall spreads blood vessels, giving birth to dense silk threads, the golden rings that used to be famous for a long time now look like a silk hole, Jin Mao Tower has become a placenta for breeding demons.
This is the gods.
It didn't feel like a living thing, but like a pool of hellish backwater, in which countless evil spirits roared and wailed.
