"Do you hate them?"

Staring at the girl opposite in silence, Lu Xuan suddenly asked such a question.

"Hate?"

Raising her head a little dazedly, the girl looked at Lu Xuan with a serious face, and the smile on her face gradually converged.

"Are you a demon?"

did not deny the girl's question, Lu Xuan just maintained his usual indifference as always.

"It turns out that what they said is true, there are really demons in this world!"

Having already gotten the answer from Lu Xuan's expression, the girl who had obviously misunderstood something laughed indulgently again.

"Haha! What is there to hate about this? ”

"If it weren't for me, they could have lived a little more chic."

"Actually, if you really want to talk about hate, I hate the group of high-level people who abandoned us, I hate those sudden monsters, and I hate this inexplicable disaster!"

"Those anomalous phenomena that are called 'doomsday disasters' in the mouths of adults are the main culprits of all this!"

Despite the hateful words on her lips, the girl's eyes were still so empty.

That lifeless void has long been a part of the girl, and even in the face of demons, it will never be able to disperse.

"I've heard that demons emerge from people's hearts......"

"Are you my hallucination?"

"Or am I actually dead?"

There is no need to change the topic, the girl is simply curious about Lu Xuan's origin.

In the girl's mind, since the cataclysm, endless darkness has poured from the Pacific Ocean to the entire earth.

Under the erosion of darkness, everyone can be assimilated by the darkness and then become those terrible monsters outside the walls.

Most of the settlements established by humans in advance were actually destroyed from the inside by those terrible monsters.

After shattering the walls of humanity, the terrifying monsters that pour out of people's hearts will merge with the darkness of the outside world and eventually become part of the overwhelming horror monsters.

"You're not dead, and I'm not a demon."

Lowering his head slightly, Lu Xuan did not look directly into the girl's eyes when he said this, but stared at the broken wine bottles under his feet.

"But you are not wrong about one thing, the 'demon' you know is indeed the manifestation of the darkness and despair of the human heart."

"When the evil thoughts and despair in people's hearts are about to overflow, the darkness of the outside world will resonate, and then the personality will be distorted to give birth to real demons."

"The real name of this demon born from the human heart is 'Zoga'."

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the source of all darkness.

It seems that because Lu Xuan said the name "Zoga", the center of the Pacific Ocean, which was originally shrouded in black fog, suddenly shook.

Immediately after, the endless demon bird Zoga flew out of the darkness and let out a terrible and terrifying cry.

At the same time, a triad behemoth also opened its eyes, causing a series of volcanic eruptions and undersea earthquakes.

Thundered......

By the time the demon bird Zoga flew out of the Pacific Ocean, these catastrophic visions spread from the Pacific Ocean to all parts of the world.

Affected by this, the demon birds that were already hovering over the globe began to become berserk.

Restless!

At this moment, a ray of light suddenly emerged from the depths of the Pacific Ocean floor.

This light was so gentle, so sacred, as if to dispel the dark morning light, and immediately suppressed the riot under the Pacific Ocean.

However, that's not all.

Almost as soon as the light from the Pacific Ocean appeared, the light from the earth poured out of the surface.

Those demon birds that were still raging before, Zoga, seemed to feel a natural predator, shouting and roaring wildly, but they were never able to get close to the few remaining human settlements.

As long as there is hope in the hearts of humanity, these two rays of light will respond to humanity's call to protect those who remain alive.

But that's about it.

Because the owners of these two rays of light have long since died, the remaining rays can only barely protect the remaining humans.

This is a desperate fact and a frustrating reality.

The human beings currently living on Earth have completely lost the power to resist the darkness.

All they can do is to linger until their hearts are completely consumed by evil thoughts and despair, and they become a part of the darkness.

At that time, it will be the time when these two rays of light will disappear completely.

"Zoga?"

Tilting her head and looking at Lu Xuan for a long time, the girl grinned again.

"You mean, I'm turning into a demon?"

It was obvious that she was telling such a sad thing, but the girl's tone did not fluctuate in the slightest, as if she was talking about something that happened to someone else.

"That's great!"

"If you become a demon, you don't have to think so much about it, and you don't have to worry about it anymore......"

Looking up at the sky, the girl's gaze seemed to see through the high wall the endless darkness beyond the high wall.

It's just that I don't know why, but the girl's already empty heart suddenly welled up with an inexplicable sadness.

The sadness was so intense that tears had unconsciously flowed down the girl's eyes.

"No, not to that extent......"

Reaching out to gently wipe the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes, Lu Xuan spoke again under the shocked gaze of the other party.

"Darkness is only a force, and the 'demon' you know is only a vehicle for this power."

"If you can control this dark force, you may also be a carrier of this power."

As he spoke, Lu Xuan's figure gradually dissipated, turning into a tangible dark mist.

The girl was familiar with the dark mist, for the monsters of the outside world were made of it.

"You ......"

The darkness of the fog changes shapes, the structures that adjust constantly......

In an instant, the original boy was gone, replaced by a tall figure with six arms and four eyes.

Nearly two meters tall, each of its six arms holds a different weapon.

The most terrifying and strange thing is that the four eyes are not arranged in equal columns, but three on the left and one on the right, like ghosts arranged on the face of the tall human figure.

"If you want to live, you must learn to control this dark force."

"Tell me, do you want to keep living!"

The three eyes on the left side of the face kept blinking, but the right one eye was always staring at the girl......

This kind of usage, which combines the Kiriel people with Zoga's abilities, is the new power that Lu Xuan has mastered since he came to this world.

"I ...... I want to live! ”

Looking at Lu Xuan's four eyes, the girl hesitated for a moment, and the desire to live for the first time in her heart emerged.

"I'm going to keep living! Survive at all costs! ”

PS: I originally wanted to insert an introduction to Lu Xuan's new form, which is not a simple Kiriel form.

But after thinking about it, the setting still has to give way to the plot, and there is a specific introduction to this dark form, so let's explain it in detail after this plot is over.
