Another world line: the oath of allegiance
(The original thirty-seventh chapter, it felt okay to write, but when I looked back and re-examined, I found that Zhang Jie's disguise was written too dark, a bit OOC...... Although it is more reasonable in terms of the plot and the influence of the antagonist, I think readers may not like to read it, so I changed it to the current version. οΌ
(The following text.) οΌ
"I'm sorry, Zheng Zha, I can't let you save Yang Yun."
Just before Zheng Zha rushed to Yang Yun's side, a light appeared in Zhang Jie's eyes, and the wall of mental power that Zheng Zha had just broken suddenly stared at again, forcibly stopping Zheng Zha's footsteps.
"What the hell are you doing?"
His footsteps were blocked, Zheng Zha suddenly looked at Zhang Jie with an angry face, he couldn't understand why Zhang Jie was blocking himself to save Yang Yun now. I know the injuries I have played best...... Just by looking at the huge wound on Yang Yun's body and the terrifying scene of the murder scene now, you can understand how difficult it is for a seriously injured person who has disappeared a quarter of his body to barely survive.
"I'm just doing what I should do as a 'guide', or as a 'Zhang Jie'."
Facing Zheng Zha's anger, Zhang Jie shrugged his shoulders with a smile. It's just that unlike his usual bold laughter, the smile on Zhang Jie's face is so strange now, although it is a similar expression on the same face, but something hidden behind that face is diametrically opposed: "It's better to say that Yang Yun is dead, it's more in my interests." β
"After all, Yang Yun has been disobeying me for a long time, but I am limited to the restrictions of the Lord God and cannot directly attack him...... Now I finally borrowed your hand and got rid of him in the battle for the captain. And he really only has one breath left now, and even if he is left alone, he will die of excessive bleeding and serious injuries in a short time. How could I possibly let you bring him back to life? β
"What did you say?"
Zheng Zha watched Zhang Jie spit out such cold and ruthless words in disbelief, he never dreamed that these lines, which were equivalent to the final boss revealing his true face and analyzing his previous conspiracy, were actually said by Zhang Jie: "Zhang Jie, are you ......"
"That's right, it's the 'are you' you thinking, Zheng Zha, it's just that you are too gullible and think too much about things in this main god space...... It seems to me that your thoughts and beliefs are completely naΓ―ve and utopian. Only those who are immature and still have hope for the world have illusions about this world and the other reincarnators who have entered this hellish main god space. β
Zhang Jie mercilessly started to ridicule Zheng Zha, and his words were even more heart-wrenching and ruthless than Yang Yun's, and his qualifications and the status of a veteran who entered the main god space in three horror films earlier than Zheng Zha, are also enough to support him to say these words: "Have you forgotten that everyone who can enter the main god space is desperate for the real world?" In this case, would you actually believe that everyone can work together to form a team that unites and cooperates sincerely to survive in this main god space? β
"I'll tell you clearly, Zheng Zha! The years I spent with you before were actually all disguised by me, in order to survive, in order to save myself under the mission issued to me by the Lord God! β
Zhang Jie smiled indifferently, and Zheng Zha finally understood his smile, there was no warmth in that smile, only cruelty and indifference to the loss of other people's lives: "Do you really think that I, the person who has been hidden in the Central Continent team since before you entered the main god space, will be a good gentleman?" Those are all plays that I deliberately staged in order to deceive everyone. β
"Acting?"
Zheng Zha was immediately stunned, while Zhang Jie didn't know when he abandoned the bold attitude of laughing on weekdays, and replaced it with an expression that was so indifferent that Zheng Zha was quite unfamiliar: "In this cruel and desperate main god space, not everyone has such a high moral standard as you, and there are many people who do everything in order to live." They will nurture others, abandon their partners, and even kill their teammates, because in the eyes of the refined egoist, the lives of others are nothing more than a ladder to climb higher! β
"Zheng Zha, don't you know this truth?"
In order to survive, how can Zheng Zhe not know what ugly things people can do......
Treat your teammates as a burden in order to survive, steal key props in order to survive and want to monopolize yourself, bully your teammates in order to survive, and even turn the entire team into a breeding team in order to survive...... Some of these things are what Zheng Zhe has personally experienced and experienced, and some things are what Zhang Jie in front of him told him!
It is precisely because of this that Zheng Zha will be unbelievable, he can't believe that Zhang Jie, who told him about the situation of the breeding team and the situation of the Zhongzhou team in the past, has now become that kind of person, the kind of person he hates the most!
"Who the hell are you? Are you really the Zhang Jie I know? β
Zheng Zha said in a trembling voice: "The Zhang Jie I know is a true brother who can laugh and laugh, chat with us, and fart, patiently teach us training, teach us how to live in this main god space, and let my sister-in-law cook a table of good dishes and drink and brag with us...... Not the Zhang Jie I know now! β
"Because the Zhang Jie you know has completely died in the Fierce Ghost Street, and now I am just a guide who fuses part of his soul."
Zhang Jie's voice was indifferent and frightening, and what made Zheng Zhe's heart even cooler was the words he said: "Have you thought about it? After the Ghost Street, the entire Middle-earth team was wiped out. After the difficulty is reduced, the newcomers are greeted by the horror film that screams so simple that it is impossible to do, in this horror film there is only a murderer who can be solved with ordinary firearms...... And now that you have experienced the attack of the Grim Reaper a few times, have you ever thought about it, why after screaming, the last Zhongzhou team that had just come out of the novice village would usher in a world where the Grim Reaper could wipe them out more than ten times? β
"Do you want to know how it all went? I can tell you everything......."
"Nope! I don't want to hear it! For me now, saving Yang Yun is the most important thing I should do! β
Zheng Zha roared like thunder, at this moment, he had entered the "explosion" state again, and with a piece of his wrist, a high-shock particle dagger suddenly appeared in his hand: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense, but if you want to stop me from saving Yang Yun, then I will defeat you first!" β
"Ridiculous, who do you think you're talking to?"
Regarding Zheng Zha's behavior of directly taking out his weapon, Zhang Jie just stared, and Zheng Zha felt a majestic force rushing straight in front of him. This force is formless and substantial, and at the same time, it contains a force that seems to be irresistible, even if Zheng Zha struggled to slash the high-vibration particle dagger forward, trying to break through this layer of invisible power, he was still pushed upside down by this force and flew out!
"Wow!"
Just this time, Zheng Zhe suffered a lot of damage, and the battle with Yang Yun just now had consumed most of the energy in his body, and at this moment, under the urgency of attacking, a mouthful of blood spurted out. Even though he still wanted to rush towards Zhang Jie, his physical condition really didn't allow it, so he had to kneel on one knee, covering his heart and gasping constantly.
"Do you see? That's the gap between you and me......"
Easily sucked back the dagger that had just fallen to the ground with mental power, Zhang Jie pressed his fingers directly on the tip of the dagger under Zheng Zha's gaze, and then pressed down little by little, until the unknown material was cast, and the extremely tough and sharp dagger was directly pressed into a ball of scrap iron...... And during this action, Zhang Jie's fingers were unscathed.
"The double A-level mental power, coupled with the fact that the guide can give full play to the authority of strengthening attributes, this is the power that you unconsciously punched Yang Yun to the verge of death just now, which belongs to the power of 'subtle'."
While explaining the gap between the two to Zheng Zha, Zhang Jie glanced at Yang Yun on the ground, and his face suddenly became a little unhappy: "It's really a little strong life that can't be beaten, even in this state, he can forcibly hang his life, if he wants to wait for a natural death, I'm afraid it will take a long time...... But I have time. β
"Zheng Zhe, are you interested in listening to me tell some stories? What you've always wanted to know, the story about 'me'...... The story of 'Zhang Jie'. β
"Who's going to listen to your bullshit story!"
Zheng Zhe's heart was on fire, and he forcibly stood up regardless of his physical condition, and was about to rush towards Zhang Jie again: "Now I'm going to beat you down!" I'm going to ......"
"It's a shame, I'm not asking for your opinion, this is a notice, not an invitation."
Zhang Jie's eyes stared, Zheng Zha was suddenly like a floater caught in a spider's web, he could only keep struggling in place, but he couldn't even take a step, and Zhang Jie nodded with satisfaction: "The story starts from Ghost Street......"
ββββββ Zhang Jie explainedββββββ
ββ¦β¦ How is it? Do you understand? β
Zhang Jie's eloquence is very good, and his narration is clearly organized, just like he once played the role of a narrator in Resident Evil I, introducing Zheng Zhe and others who have just entered the main god space what kind of place this is.
But Zheng Zha was in no mood at all, and he didn't have time to listen, he just tried his best to break free from the shackles of Zhang Jie's mental power: "Then what are you doing now?" What did you say about borrowing my hand to kill Yang Yun...... What the hell are you aiming for? β
"Purpose?"
Zhang Jie was slightly stunned, but then he sneered and said, "Of course it's to live...... Who would want to die if they can live? β
"It's just that at the beginning, I just wanted you and Yang Yun to kill each other in order to compete for the position of captain, and after the two of you decide the winner, I will completely kill you in this horror movie with the pervasive 'Grim Reaper'...... However, now I have changed my mind. β
"Rather than living as a semi-guide and half-reincarnation team member again, I want to take this opportunity to liberate myself from this annoying identity, and those cultivation techniques that Yang Yun obtained when he returned to the curse gave me a chance!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Jie's face suddenly distorted, and it was a complex expression mixed with ecstasy and pie falling from the sky: "Can you believe it?" That guy actually wanted to save me! He gave me a book of cultivation exercises, and promised to take the opportunity of this horror movie to separate the captain's authority from me, and then let me be an ordinary person again, out of the main god space...... Ha, what a naΓ―ve cuteness! β
"But that idiot doesn't want to think about it, after having great power, but once falling to the dust, who would want to? Instead of being an ordinary person, it is better to let the two of you lose both, and after Yang Yun dies, I will transfer the captain's authority to you, and I, as the behind-the-scenes controller of the Zhongzhou team, still control this team, just like before! β
When Zheng Zha heard this, he already believed eight points, and he had personally experienced the magic of cultivating the truth, and he did not have the slightest doubt that there was a cultivation method that could solve Zhang Jie's problems. And Zhang Jie's explanation just now also explained very well why Yang Yun said that he was acting with Zhang Jie, but in fact, he reminded him everywhere, and finally led him here......
But after Yang Yun's calculations, the only thing that he missed was that Zhang Jie deceived everyone. Zheng Zhe doesn't know whether he has lost the disguise of human nature and returned to his original appearance as a guide, or if this is Zhang Jie's true character, in fact, he has never changed, and he has always been the man who can do anything to survive for himself...... This traitor, who has been hiding in the Middle-earth team for a long time, has betrayed everyone's trust!
Zhang Jie's eyes flashed with a fine light after finally finishing his plan, and Zheng Zhe, who was restrained in place, suddenly felt that he had regained his ability to act, and the final boss who was hiding behind the scenes of the Zhongzhou team showed a cruel smile, and threw a purple thunderbolt knife from the space bag, which was inserted in front of Zheng Zhe.
"Come on, Zheng Zha, this knife is for you."
Zheng Zha didn't care about the big knife stuck in the ground, but stared at Zhang Jie, as if to see something from his expression: "What do you want to do?" β
"It's nothing, it's just that I exchanged a contract at the main god, and you only need to kill Yang Yun with this knife, and then you will be the new captain of the Zhongzhou team...... Of course, it's the captain on the surface. β
Zhang Jie took out a piece of paper, shook it quickly in front of Zheng Zha, and then took it back: "In the battle just now, I have already obtained your blood, and now I only need to complete this last step, then this contract can be reached...... From now on, I will not affect any of your decisions, and will only hide in the Middle-earth team as an ordinary mental power as in the past. β
"Come on, Zheng Zha, choose, this is my last chance for you."
"Do you want to be my enemy, or pick up that knife and take Yang Yun'......s life?"
"Swear allegiance to me again?"
