Chapter 17: Archon Wu Qi
In the conference room of the Inquisition, several archons were chatting.
Wu Qi hasn't invited everyone to dinner recently, it's strange. One of the consuls said.
Archon Wu Qi was usually very popular and hospitable, and often invited his colleagues out for parties at every turn. The work is also serious and responsible, and it is very liked by the big guys.
"That's right, he's been mysteriously leaving as soon as he's off work lately, and I don't know what he's going to do." Another consul answered.
Maybe he's had an accident at home recently, so let's not talk about him. Have you heard lately, the prisoners in the Paranormal Prison have died a lot of inexplicably lately. The first consul to speak shifted to what had happened recently.
'I heard about it, it is said that the ability in the body is out of control or something, and the death is particularly miserable. My friend who works in the autopsy department told me that it was the first time he had encountered such a strange thing. ’
'Oh, what's wrong?' ’
He said there were bodies that had been dead for less than 24 hours and looked like mummies that had been dried for hundreds of years. The consul who spoke shuddered at the thought of a certain image.
At this time, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open.
Everyone focused their eyes on the gate.
The person who came was also dressed in a crisp red and white archon costume. Bird's nest-like hair on his head, freckles on his face. On the bridge of his nose he wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. The signature smile of Mr. Yes is not who the consul Wu Qi is.
"Wu Qi, you finally appeared, we were still discussing you, what have you been busy with lately, by the way, have you heard about the recent events in prison?" ’
After confirming that the person who came was Wu Qi, everyone returned to the topic of chatting.
With his usual signature smile, Wu Qi slowly walked next to the consul who had just spoken to him.
'I've been busy killing people lately. The voice was calm, not at all different from usual.
'No kidding, just you, still killing?' What's the matter, you've been busy lately, and you're ready to invite us to dinner? The consul who spoke did not take Wu Qi's words to heart at all.
'yes, hahahaha. Wu Qi also laughed, raised his right hand while laughing, and patted his colleague on the shoulder.
In the palm of his hand, with his slapping movements, every stroke brought out a large canopy of blood.
'Oops, you're hurt. Wu Qi still had the same gentle smile, but his hand increased the force of the slap.
In the palm of his hand, a wooden needle with an unusually sharp head and barbs all over its body. appeared in front of a few people who were stunned by the sudden change.
The attacked archon's breath had disappeared at this moment, and the wooden needles that pierced his body were too long, and after piercing into his body, the barbs on the wooden needles spread out in an instant. The lobes of the lungs and heart were the first to suffer a devastating blow. Until he took his last breath, he still had an unbelievable expression on his face.
Now you should believe that I am really busy killing people. Wu Qi withdrew his palm as a matter of course, and the corpse fell softly.
'Wu Qi, what are you doing!' Among the frightened people, one of the consuls plucked up the courage to reprimand.
Can't you see, I'm killing someone. Wu Qi answered this question very seriously.
While raising his palm, in the palm of his hand, he held a wooden needle and threw it directly at everyone.
During the flight, barbs grew from the body of the needle, and the barbs burst open in the air.
The few people who were caught off guard were immediately pierced like hedgehogs, and the barbs pierced into the body, but they did not end, and they were still growing in the court.
Ability [Wood Spawn].
Wu Qi took off his glasses, took out a hand towel, and carefully wiped the blood stains that had been splashed on them.
Of course, you are raising pigs when you are invited to eat, and of course you will slaughter them when the time comes. After all, the new era doesn't need waste. As he spoke, he pressed the communication belt on his wrist a few times.
It didn't take long to get through.
'Remember to take care of the monitor. ’
'Got it, got it. Li Zhe, who hung up the communication, directly destroyed the monitoring tape.
Wu Qi tidied up his appearance and put on his cleaned glasses again. With a signature smile, he turned and left the conference room. He also gently closed the door.
When the door was closed, I ran into a staff member who brought water to the consuls.
Wu Qi laughed harmlessly at humans and animals.
They're discussing something important. 'Give me the water.'
The staff left respectfully.
When I left, I was still thinking, and sure enough, Lord Wu had a good personality as rumored.
This should be enough, Wu Qi thought as he walked.
Within a week, under the cover of the chief referee, Li Zhe, he killed 12 prisoners with high-level abilities in a row. and drained the blood and marrow of their whole body. When he kills, his eyes are fanatical. He knew that the new era that the shadow spoke of was about to begin.
In an era where there are only supernatural beings, all ordinary people will become the nourishment of supernatural abilities.
He deeply believes in the future described by the shadow, and the shadow tells him that in this era, ordinary people are no longer useful, with the discovery of new life and planets. What is needed is someone with powerful abilities. What is needed is a new order. Only by the iron-blooded order can human beings continue to be strong in this vast starry sky.
He still remembers that when he was young, he was constantly bullied because of his personality. Almost all children of the same age take pleasure in bullying him.
Even once, Wu Qi, who was blocked in the alley and beaten up, looked at his classmates who had untied their pants in horror.
Covered in urine, he lowered his head and gritted his teeth. I was trembling all over.
'What, not convinced?' The strong man who took the lead seemed to see something funny.
'No, no. Wu Qi, who raised his head, smiled as always, as if he realized it later. He buried his resentment deep in his heart.
He knew he was too weak, and resisting would only make the gang even worse.
When I got home, I could only see my alcoholic stepfather, and my mother had died a long time ago. The stepfather was an alcoholic and a gambler. owes a lot of debts, and every time I am beaten miserably by the debt collectors who chase after me. After the fight, he would get up and beat Wu Qi, who was watching from the sidelines, to vent.
Finally, one day, Wu Qi couldn't bear all this, and he decided to flee.
However, fate did not let him go, and he was caught by a criminal gang and brought under control.
Every day he was forced to steal, rob, and beg for food. If you can't complete the task, you will still be beaten and have no food.
After a change of environment, the encounter still hasn't changed.
He can only say his wish in his heart when he sleeps every day.
His wish is for all those who bully him to die.
Until his ability first awakens naturally.
'Told you to steal your wallet, what is this you stole back?!' You steal a wood carving back? Can this thing be sold for money? You can't be a little more stupid! The scolding was accompanied by fists and kicks, and Wu Qi was hit mercilessly.
He held his head in his hands, and his body curled up in the shape of a shrimp. Being beaten all year round has made him a habit. As long as the vital points are protected, other injuries will slowly heal. However, the wound in my heart, over time, bleeds little by little and grew sores, festering and expanding, until it could no longer heal.
His covered face was now crawling with resentment, which was entrenched in his brain, in his heart, and all over his body, like a snake, gnawing at his reason. He shouted frantically in his heart, go die. Hurry up and die.
The person who beat him was obviously puzzled, and directly grabbed the ugly humanoid wood carving he stole back and smashed it at his head.
Die!!
The resentment in Wu Qi's heart was no longer incomprehensible, like a snake entrenched in preparation for an attack, stretching out a snake letter, dripping green poisonous saliva from his teeth.
At this time, the person holding the wood carving only felt a sharp pain in the palm of his hand, and saw that the wood carving body that he was holding tightly had a sharp branch extending out at this moment, piercing his palm, and was desperately drilling into it along the flesh and blood. With a heart-rending scream, it grew into a towering tree in a short time.
The roots are intertwined like a dragon. It was the person who bullied him just now, and it seemed that he had lost his breath.
When Wu Qi let go of the hands holding his head and opened his eyes, there was a person in a black robe standing in front of him.
"The ability of natural awakening, kid, is very powerful. Why did you kill him. 'A faint electronic synthesized sound.
He forced me to steal and beat me. Wait, you mean abilities? I? Wu Qi saw the dead man. His heart was happy for a while, however, he quickly restrained his expression, the person who spoke just now said that this was his awakened ability? Wu Qi still knew the ability, he didn't expect that he also had the ability.
'Oh, that's damn it. Of course I'm talking about you, do you want to come with me? ’
Wu Qi became vigilant, he had never met a good person until now. As if seeing Wu Qi's vigilance, the black-robed man continued.
'Don't worry, I won't beat you, and not only will keep you fed and clothed. It will also help you so that you can kill all the people who bully you. ’
Wu Qi's heart was moved.
'Why help me. I still asked the doubts in my heart.
'Because you are strong, follow me, and you will not suffer.' 'The synthesized sound is not in a hurry.
Wu Qi with the help of the man in black. Kill the guy in the gang who bullied him first. Remain calm.
Slowly becoming familiar with his abilities, he became more comfortable with them, and went to kill all the classmates who bullied him.
Until Wu Qi came home, he used the wooden needle in his hand to pierce the heart of his drunken stepfather. The black-clothed man who accompanied him all the way spoke again.
Do you want to build a better world with me?' ’
Wu Qi tilted his head to look at him.
'A world where no one will be bullied, iron-blooded. There are strict laws and regulations, and there are strict hierarchies. In that world, nothing that you suffer will ever happen. All working together for one goal. ’
Wu Qi's eyes lit up. He thought countless times that if there had been no bullying in the first place, no beating, no crime. Isn't he going to be like he is now?
In that world, everyone is a supernatural being, and only the supernatural is the king of this era. '
But does such a world really exist? Wu Qi asked.
That's why you need like-minded people to work together, do you want to follow me, recognize me as the Lord, and witness the arrival of such an era, for which you may need to kill many, many people." People who are not needed by the new era. '
'Who are you. ’
'Just call me Shadow. ’
Wu Qi was grateful to Lord Shadow in his heart, and his personal experience made him feel that for such a beautiful world, even if he fell into hell and suffered from karma, it was worth it. Throughout the ages, which prosperous dynasty was not accompanied by great bones. What king did not have countless blood in his hands.
He felt like a general who assisted the king in his conquest, moving forward step by step for the same goal, and for this he could die and break his bones.
