I’m In Charge of SCP - Chapter 501
“Zhang Jue, when you read this letter, maybe I’m no longer alive, or maybe you haven’t had a chance to read this letter at all, but I still decided to write something.”
“I remember, I once asked you what it means to live in this world. You said, of course, people live to make themselves happy.”
“At first, I didn’t agree with it very much, because it’s too selfish, how can people only think about themselves, but what surprised me is that more and more people gather around you, they respect you, love you, everyone They are all sincere to you.”
“Now, I kind of understand what you’re thinking.”
“I am happy and agreeable. This power will inadvertently affect the people around me, making them happy and happy too.”
“No matter how desperate, there is always hope in my heart.”
“I seem to be attracted to you too.”
“It feels unexpectedly good to miss someone, but I don’t seem to be lucky enough to continue enjoying it.”
“The other party seems to be unable to hold back. It has been delayed for so long, and it seems that it has no patience.”
“I know we’re no match for it, but that’s okay.”
“Because you will definitely come back, right?”
…
Zhang Jue closed the letter that Ning Suiyu left him, and his face was very calm.
Ning Suiyu’s body was placed in front of him.
Anyone who knows Ning Suiyu knows that she has always taken No. 1 as an example and is an uncompromising strong woman.
She was wearing a military uniform, and even if she died, she still had a determined look on her face.
In the face of a powerful enemy, she knew she couldn’t do anything, but she didn’t give up until the last moment.
Just like her name.
Rather Stick to your guns.
The only time in her life she felt lost was when she learned that the Authority was going to take action against all mankind.
Fortunately, Zhang Jue was rescued.
And after the confusion, the only thing left is firmness.
She coordinated the forces of the Authority scattered all over the world and dealt with various forces.
As a woman, it’s not easy.
When Zhang Jue went to Europe alone, she did not personally send Zhang Jue on the plane, but chose to contact others as soon as possible to help Zhang Jue stabilize the rear.
No one thought that the farewell would be a never-ending farewell.
The two didn’t even see each other for the last time.
Ning Suiyu is not a woman in the traditional sense. She is more powerful and independent than Yang Xue. Even if Leshan is forced to reveal her feelings for Zhang Jue, she is not as stubborn as ordinary women.
She knew better what to do to help Zhang Jue.
– Just like now, fighting until the last moment.
But until now, after seeing this letter, Zhang Jue understood her intentions.
“Push it away.”
Zhang Jue said to the staff next to him.
The staff member responded and was about to push away the cart that Ning Suiyu was lying on when Zhang Jue said again, “Wait a minute.”
The staff looked at him puzzled.
Zhang Jue bent down, looked at Ning Suiyu’s face, and then reached out and pinned a strand of hair on her forehead behind her ear.
…
After Ning Suiyu’s body was pushed away, Zhang Jue went to visit Yang Xue again.
After that battle, Yang Xue was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
Not to mention Yang Xue, even he himself just woke up.
Zhang Jue just held her hand, sat in front of her bed for a few minutes, and then left.
At this time, there is no time to give his children long love.
The people led by Ning Suiyu were all the remnants of the Administration Bureau, including some of Leshan and Leshui’s subordinates, and no one did not know Zhang Jue.
After Ning Suiyu’s death, the command right fell to him.
Everyone looked at him eagerly.
Zhang Jue has just returned, and his knowledge is limited. The most urgent task is to find out the enemy’s information and know himself and his enemy.
Just as he was about to speak, a staff officer hurriedly pushed open the door of the conference room.
“Report! Report!”
“What’s the matter?” Zhang Jue asked calmly.
The staff officer had just returned from another place and didn’t know the news of Ning Suiyu’s death. He looked at Zhang Jue sitting on the main seat, stunned, and recognized Zhang Jue.
He was a little overjoyed and hurriedly said: “Report to Consultant Zhang, that, that female knight in black armor, she is here!”
Female knight?
Zhang Jue was also stunned, and then realized who he was talking about.
In today’s world, there is only one female knight in black armor, and that is Shirley.
When the world was occupied by that monster, the Crimson King and the three brothers of death were all driven away. The reason why Ning Suiyu and the remnants of the Administration can persist to this day is all because of her support.
Zhang Jue hurriedly asked, “Where is she?”
“She’s here—”
Just halfway through the staff’s words, a slender figure appeared behind him.
Shirley still held her death scythe upside down, her eyes sharp.
Her face was pale, and her black armor had turned crimson.
Zhang Jue didn’t know what that meant, but it certainly wasn’t a good thing.
…
Five minutes later, in a room.
Zhang Jue and Xue Li sat facing each other, neither of them said anything.
Xue Li kept staring at him like that, making Zhang Jue feel a little uncomfortable.
“Now should I call you Shirley or—”
“Abby.”
“Okay.” Zhang Jue nodded, “Xue Li, what’s going on ahead, that monster, what is it?”
Xue Li frowned and seemed a little dissatisfied with Zhang Jue calling her that, but she also knew that this was not the time to be entangled in such things.
“I don’t know either.” She shook her head.
“Even you don’t know?” Zhang Jue was a little surprised.
Xue Li is different from others. As a doomsday knight, her life span is more than a thousand years. She may not have seen some god-level creatures, but she has never even heard of them.
Not only Zhang Jue, but Xue Li herself was a little confused.
Because of the feeling that the monster gave her, it was very strange.
Shirley hesitated for a moment and said, “I feel like it doesn’t belong to this world.”
Zhang Jue turned his face to look at her: “What is ‘not from this world’?”
When the strength reaches the level of Shirley, they have a special sense of the composition of the entire world, and they can see the origin of things to a certain extent.
As the Taoists say, looking at mountains is not mountains, and looking at water is not water.
Just like 682 was able to sense that Zhang Jue was not from this world.
The strength of the opponent is second. During the several fights, Shirley always had a feeling that this monster seemed to come from another world.
It doesn’t fit in with everything here.
After listening to Shirley’s description, Zhang Jue remembered what Karina had said to him.
For this world, his composition is different, like strings mixed in a bunch of floating point numbers, so he has no way to distort the world or be distorted by the world.
Could it be that the other party is the same as him?
“No, it’s not the same as you.” Shirley suddenly said, “It’s not the same as you, it’s from the third world.”
From the third world?
This sounds more and more outrageous.
Zhang Jue lowered his head in thought.
Shirley said coldly, “What do you want to do?”
Zhang Jue was taken aback: “No.”
“Don’t lie to me, you want to see that monster, don’t you?”
Zhang Jue let out a haha. This little girl seemed to be able to tell at a glance what she was thinking.
Shirley looked down at her armor, closed her eyes, and opened them again.
“I advise you not to do this.”
“why?”
Xue Li said, “Although you already have a godhead, your state is very weak, and you don’t have any divine power on your body. It’s not much stronger than before. If you go to see it now, you will only be killed in seconds.”
“Are you worried about me?”
“I didn’t.” Shirley turned her head, “I’m no longer the little girl who can be fooled by your little magic for an afternoon.”
Shirley would say that, probably already remembering everything.
No wonder she protected the last fire of mankind when Zhang Jue was in a coma.
No wonder Zhang Jue felt that seeing her this time, her tone was no longer as cold as before.
Seeing that Zhang Jue didn’t say anything, Xue Li said softly, “Your current strength is not as good as that of Ian of the day. What you urgently need to do now is to accumulate your own divine power and prepare for the future. Fortunately, these are the rest. People who worship you very much, and their beliefs can be your source of strength.”
Shirley’s method is the safest.
A very important part of the reason why these remnants of the Administration Bureau have not dispersed and are still fighting together is because of the existence of Zhang Jue.
It can be said that Zhang Jue is the backbone of all of them.
As long as Zhang Jue does not die, they will have cohesion.
This time should not be impulsive, because there is only one chance.
Zhang Jue thought for a long time while pinching his chin, and asked, “What about the battle ahead?”
Shirley coughed twice and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth without a trace.
“There is me.”
…
After talking with Shirley, Zhang Jue has been sitting in the office, thinking about something.
Then he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
The visitor was Ke Zhengde, the deputy head of site66, who came back from the front line.
After Ning Suiyu’s death, he became the interim commander.
At this time, I came to Zhang Jue in person and should report something.
Sure enough, after opening the door, he walked straight to Zhang Jue.
“Consultant Zhang, someone wants to see you.”
Zhang Jue followed Ke Zhengde, and the two came to a ward.
There is a bed in the ward, but no treatment equipment.
There was a patient lying on the bed, Zhang Jue glanced at him, and found that the man’s left shoulder was gone.
When he got closer, he realized that he knew this person.
In other words, the entire Authority knows – Lester Fegmont, the former No. 2 manager of the Zero Fifth Council of the Anomalous Creatures Authority.
No one knows how old Lester is, but what is known is that he has been in the position of number two since he was a small clerk.
It can be said that it is really one step at a time.
He doesn’t have superpowers, but he does things that many people can’t.
After 343 and the Ethics and Ethics Committee occupied the headquarters of the Authority, he and No. 5 Xu and Wei Snake, under pressure, created opportunities for more people to escape.
Later, he cooperated with No. 12 and No. 13, killed his own son and 343’s subordinates, and successfully summoned Marie Zhongshan, which could be regarded as an indirect help to Zhang Jue.
After that fight, he disappeared along with Five, Twelve and Thirteen, and no one knew where they went.
But no matter what, in the eyes of these remnants of the Administration, he is a traitor to humanity.
When Ke Zhengde escorted Ning Suiyu’s body back, he met him on the road and brought it back by the way.
At that time, Lester was seriously injured and almost died, and Ke Zhengde ordered him to be sent to the hospital first.
Ning Suiyu’s death made everyone grief-stricken and almost forgot about it.
But probably because of the return of light, it didn’t take long for No. 2 to wake up leisurely and offer to see Zhang Jue.
Three or four years ago, the first council administrator Zhang Jue met was No. 2.
In the zero-five council, No. 2 and No. 5 have always been against Zhang Jue, trying to take him in custody several times, even to the point of his death.
But they are fundamentally different from Angelo.
Because no matter whether it is No. 2 or No. 5, the Authority and human beings are the first things.
All they do is try to solve the problem in another way, there is no right or wrong, after all, they can’t see everything from God’s perspective.
After Ke Zhengde left, only Zhang Jue and No. 2 were left in the room.
No. 2’s left shoulder has been flattened by a sharp tool, and the gauze is faintly bleeding.
He was lying on the bed, motionless, but breathing like a bellows, probably because of a lung problem.
Hearing Zhang Jue’s footsteps, he opened his eyes.
Zhang Jue sat on the stool beside the bed, and the two looked at each other.
“What do you want to say to me?” Zhang Jue spoke first.
Anyone can guess that the number two must have something to tell him when he saw Zhang Jue before he died.
“They are all dead.”
This is the first sentence of No. 2. His voice is a little hoarse, but his thinking should still be clear.
Zhang Jue knew that when he was talking about them, he should be referring to the No. 5, No. 12 and No. 13 who were with him.
They are the only four remaining members of the Zero Five Council.
But now, they are all dead.
“We wanted to restart the world, but failed.”
This is the second sentence of number two.
After hearing this, Zhang Jue frowned.
As we all know, the Authority has many means of restarting the world.
One knows all the ways, but she’s dead.
The rest, the thirteenth knows the most.
After successfully summoning Marie Zhongshan, the four of them left Switzerland together in an attempt to restart the entire world line.
But as Number Two said, they failed.
They used both ways and both failed.
No. 5 took all his body in, and died in that cave with No. 12 and No. 13.
Only No. 2 dragged his broken body and ran out of it.
He traveled all the way, and finally found the remnant led by Ning Suiyu, and the world has long since changed.
In the end, he chose to meet Zhang Jue and tell him about it.
This was the last thing he did for the Authority, for all mankind.
After saying these two sentences, No. 2 stopped talking. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the last period of his life.
“I know.”
Zhang Jue nodded.
He sat in front of the second bed for a while, and after making sure that the other party was not breathing, he got up and left.
No. 2 is the first and last one that Zhang Jue met after he came to this world.
To some extent, this is also a special fate.
The death of No. 2 represents the demise of the Zero Five Council.
Whether physically or in name, this organization no longer exists.
But that’s nothing.
When one person dies, everyone will feel sad, and when ten people die, everyone will feel very sad.
But after a hundred people, a thousand people, hundreds of millions, billions, or even billions of people have died, this is really just a number.
Everyone has become numb and used to not being sad.
Not to mention a parliament, now the entire Anomalous Creatures Administration, and even the entire human race, is facing the fate of extinction.
No one knows whether they can see the sun tomorrow.
…
At night, Zhang Jue stood alone on the roof of a building.
This was his habit all along.
Looking at the twinkling lights in the distance, I don’t know what to think.
The time is eleven o’clock in the evening on February 20, 2225, and in another hour, it will be the full fourth anniversary of his crossing into this world.
On this day four years ago, he was chased and killed by Uncle 682 in a dream. After waking up, he came to this world.
For the past four years, he has spent most of his time in this world.
From the first day he came to this world, there has been a disaster here.
He is constantly helping the people of this world solve problems.
Then sadly found that there was a problem in his own world.
And now, both worlds have fallen into desperation.
His current location is May State, Florida.
This is the last stronghold of mankind.
Since 343 used the Administration to launch an attack on all human beings, and now, in just a few months, the population of the earth has dropped from ten billion to the current one million.
Just as 343 envisioned at the beginning, the probability of human survival is only one in ten thousand.
He doesn’t know what the final result will be, but there are some things that he has to face.
He picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand and said to the secretary assigned to him, “Help me prepare a plane, I’m going to the front line.”
The other party hesitated for a moment, but in the end did not question his order.
Half an hour later, Zhang Jue’s plane took off from the airport and headed north all the way to the border between Florida and Georgia.
That’s where the humans fought that monster.
In the dark night, a knight in black armor, riding a horse with green flames all over his body, stood in the air, looking at the plane that was flying towards death.
“Master, he still went.” 682 said.
Shirley didn’t speak, and only snorted after a while.
“Shut up and let others die. If he can really do it, it won’t be Zhang Jue.”
…
Florida is located in the southeastern United States and faces the sea on three sides.
“Florida” comes from Spanish and means “where the flowers bloom”.
After the earth was occupied by monsters, its minions attacked all the way east from Europe.
Asia and America fell one after another.
Ning Suiyu led the remnants of the Administration to fight and retreat, and finally huddled here.
Humanity has nowhere to go.
There are two reasons why Zhang Jue did not follow Xue Li’s advice.
First, he’s not that kind of person.
Second, it’s useless even if you crawl behind you.
Because as long as the enemy thinks, this peninsula can be destroyed in an instant.
The opponent’s strength is strong, the three brothers of the **** of death, the king of crimson, Marie of Zhongshan, the hanged king, so many god-level creatures are not its opponents.
Shirley alone can’t compete with the opponent at all.
Then there is only one explanation for the reason why human beings can survive so far.
– The other party is waiting for him.
Wait for him to wake up.
Now he has woken up.
If you still avoid it, then the other party will definitely find it.
Zhang Jue has been thinking about this matter since the afternoon.
Instead of letting the other party come to the door, it is better to take the initiative to attack.
He also wanted to see what the other party was.
Two hours later, the plane landed slowly.
As soon as Zhang Jue got off the plane, several frontline commanders who had already received the information gathered around.
The leader of the team is Kenneth, the captain of the Viper Squad who is very close to Zhang Jue.
Zhang Jue didn’t chat with them, but said lightly: “Take your people and evacuate back 100 kilometers. No matter what happens here, don’t come here.”
A few people look at me, I look at you, don’t know what to do.
Only Kenneth, without the slightest hesitation, answered yes and left the airport without looking back.
The remaining captains were stunned for a while, and they all saluted Zhang Jue before leaving.
The last scene they saw was Zhang Jue standing alone on the tarmac of the airport, looking out into the night sky in the distance.
Two hours later, all the soldiers in the front-line battalion were evacuated.
The time at this time is about four or five in the morning, which is the darkest hour before dawn.
Zhang Jue walked alone in the direction of the enemy.
Before you know it, there is heavy fog all around.
However, Zhang Jue’s footsteps were not affected at all.
He was alone and did not carry any weapons and equipment.
Although he has ascended to the gods and has a godhead, he is actually very weak and has very limited combat power after he has just woken up for less than a day.
But he knew he had to come here.
After walking for more than an hour, the surrounding scenery still did not change – it was still foggy.
Zhang Jue simply stopped.
“Don’t show up yet?”
He spoke suddenly.
After a while, he said again: “This is really boring.”
At this time, a slightly hoarse voice sounded from all directions.
“How do you know that I’m here.”
This voice is very familiar, Zhang Jue should have heard it, he must have had contact with the other party, and it was just recently.
Zhang Jue snorted: “The reason is very simple, because I know that you are everywhere.”
Yes, as Zhang Jue guessed, this “monster” is very powerful, and it is everywhere.
The first time Zhang Jue woke up, it already knew.
“Human, you are smart,” it said.
“No, I’m not smart enough.” Zhang Jue laughed at himself, “At least for now, I don’t know who you are, or what exactly you are.”
“I can give you a hint.”
As soon as its voice fell, Zhang Jue felt a light, a black light, appearing in the night sky in front of him.
In the darkness, a black light appears, which is an indescribable abnormal phenomenon, but Zhang Jue already has a godhead, so he can see it.
A huge black humanoid silhouette was walking towards him slowly, stepping on the void.
Its aura was very familiar, and Zhang Jue recognized the other at once—this monster was the one that was sealed in 173, the one he released!
At that time, the monster lost his memory, and Zhang Jue was in a hurry to find 343, so he didn’t think much about it.
But no one thought that after the other party recovered his memory, he would be so powerful.
Zhang Jue is a little helpless, is he really the culprit of human extinction?
The monster seemed to see Zhang Jue’s mind and said, “Even if you don’t break the seal, it’s not a problem if I want to break through it. As long as I want, I can come out of it at any time.”
It turns out that this is the case, it seems that human beings are destined for this disaster.
However, seeing the true face of this monster, Zhang Jue’s doubts increased instead of decreasing.
Because he also sensed the kind of “breath that doesn’t belong to this world” that Shirley said.
“who are you?”
Zhang Jue stared at each other stubbornly.
“you guess?”
The other party said a nonsense that was both mocking and useless.
Zhang Jue’s brows furrowed deeply.
Now he can be sure that the other party feels very familiar to him, and this familiarity is by no means as simple as meeting him before.
He must have heard of this monster message from somewhere.
And not in the Authority world.
Not my own world.
is from the third world.
Is it Ma Ruowen’s novel?
no.
Besides, where else would such a monster exist?
Then there seems to be only one answer.
Zhang Jue was silent for a moment, then said, “I see.”
The other party sneered: “Oh? What do you know?”
“I know your identity.” Zhang Jue lowered his head and said slowly, under the gaze of the monster, “You are – Dou Mo.”
“Hahahaha-“
The other party laughed, “I haven’t heard my name called for a long time, Zhang Jue, you are very good, you remind me of someone.”
“His surname is Feng, right?”
“That’s right.” Dou Mo nodded, “But compared to him, you are still too weak, regardless of ability or wisdom.”
Zhang Jue snorted.
It should be normal that a son is not as good as a father – and he is such a powerful father.
And the other party’s words also confirmed his guess.
This monster is Dou Mo, and its opponent comes from the world where his father exists.
In that world, the power of fighting demons is only god-level at best, and there are not even creatures stronger than it that can fight with it.
But after coming to this world, its power has obviously been greatly strengthened.
Not to mention that Zhang Jue has no divine power now, even if he is full, he is probably not his opponent.
The most important thing is that Zhang Jue doesn’t understand how Dou Mo came to this world.
“What do you want to do?” Zhang Jue asked.
“What? Am I not being obvious enough?” Douma laughed, “Of course, kill all of you, kill all human beings, and then take over the world.”
Dou Mo possessed a huge body and looked at him: “Zhang Jue, before I came here, someone once told me that you are the biggest obstacle to me ruling this world, but now it seems that you are too weak, even the one riding The women of the horse are not as good as it is, I am so disappointed!”
Speaking of this, Dou Mo’s tone suddenly became cold.
He waited for Zhang Jue for so long, but he never thought that Zhang Jue would be so weak.
Of course, the only person who is qualified to say that Zhang Jue is weak is Dou Mo.
Dou Mo snapped his fingers, and a black sphere appeared on his fingertips.
The surface of the sphere has a purple light, which is not easy to mess with.
“An ant, you must have the consciousness of an ant, go to hell!”
Dou Mo said, the black sphere with purple light slowly floated towards Zhang Jue.
Even if it is very far away, Zhang Jue can feel the huge energy attached to it – it is estimated that it will not be a problem to destroy half of the earth.
Although Zhang Jue had already ascended to God, he definitely couldn’t withstand this attack.
Mary Zhongshan, the Hanged King, Shirley, these people who have the ability to save him, are not all enemies of Dou Mo, and even if they come, they will not be able to escape the fate of being killed in seconds with him.
The purple light collapsed inward, and the entire small ball shrank to the extreme, and then burst out with huge energy.
This space has been locked, and Zhang Jue cannot avoid it.
However, at this moment, another figure suddenly appeared. At the moment of the explosion, he grabbed Zhang Jue’s shoulder, and the two disappeared from the space together.
Seeing the traces of their disappearance, Dou Mo snorted, and then gradually disappeared into the darkness.
…
Zhang Jue opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was a window, and the faint sunlight came in from outside the window.
It looks like it should be a fine morning.
Zhang Jue returned to Earth.
He looked at the person in front of him, not knowing what to say for a while.
If the other party does not appear, he has almost forgotten that there is such a person.
In the four years that Zhang Jue came to this world, the other party has only appeared twice.
And every time, it appeared when Zhang Jue was very dangerous.
His name is also very strange.
nobody.
Zhang Jue never thought that in the end, it was him who saved his life.
“Dude, who are you?” Zhang Jue asked.
nobody calmly said: “nobody.”
This line is a bit awkward, and Zhang Jue really wants to go up and slap him in the mouth.
But he also knew that he was definitely not the opponent’s opponent.
A long time ago, when nobody rescued him from the three brothers of death, Zhang Jue knew that this person was very strong, but he didn’t expect it to be so strong.
Now it seems that nobody is like Dou Mo, their power level must be above the **** level.
Zhang Jue sat on the stool behind him and looked at him with interest.
“I said buddy, since we met again, shouldn’t you tell me everything you know, what’s going on with all this?”
Nobody obviously knows a lot of things that Zhang Jue doesn’t know. He lowered his eyelids and said, “What do you want to know?”
Zhang Jue smiled: “Let’s start with your identity, who are you?”
Nobody pondered for a moment, only said one sentence, and almost made Zhang Jue fall off his chair.
“I was sent by your father.”
“My father?” Zhang Jue frowned, “Why did he send you here?”
“Of course you know you’re in danger.”
There is no doubt about his father’s ability, Zhang Jue pinched his chin, thinking about nobody’s words.
He understands that the danger in nobody’s mouth is probably not only the danger from the management world. Compared with Dou Mo and Ma Ruowen, these things are simply not worth mentioning.
After all, they are the culprits of the disaster in both worlds.
Seeing that Zhang Jue understood what he meant, nobody said again: “Do you know why Do Demon didn’t attack you while you were in a coma? Because it didn’t want to kill you, it just wanted to seal you.”
“Um?”
Zhang Jue looked at him puzzled.
Nobody explained: “Because he locates this world based on your breath, once your projection in this world dies, he also loses the coordinates here.”
I see.
Nobody’s words solved a big problem in Zhang Jue’s mind.
It turned out that Dou Mo actually followed him here.
Zhang Jue asked, “Then MRW, or Ma Ruowen, what’s going on there?”
“He’s just jealous of you. His power comes from being jealous of you.”
“Well…” Zhang Jue thought for a while while pinching his chin, and said, “The last question, how can I solve the disaster between these two worlds?”
“There is no way to solve it.” nobody shook his head, “Whether Ma Ruowen or Dou Mo, I am not their opponent.”
“Then I can only watch as everyone is killed by them?”
nobody shook his head helplessly.
It looks like it’s a dead end
No matter which world he was in, Zhang Jue faced an extremely powerful enemy.
In terms of strength, it is almost impossible for him to beat the opponent.
If it is about conspiracy – in the face of absolute power, any conspiracy is useless.
Just like the room where they are now, if it wasn’t for the protection of nobody, Dou Mo would have found it long ago.
Is that the only way it can be?
Zhang Jue was silent for a long time.
Then suddenly he spoke.
“No, I have another way.”
nobody looked up at him.
“As long as I commit suicide, and I in both worlds commit suicide, they will have no chance to destroy the world—you said, Marowen’s power lies in envy of me, Dou Mo needs me to help him locate this world, then as long as I get from these two disappear into this world, and their plans go bankrupt.”
nobody was stunned: “this…”
Zhang Jue looked at him and asked with a smile, “Is that so?”
“Uh—” nobody said, “in theory, it does.”
Zhang Jue clapped his hands: “Then the problem is simple, isn’t it?”
He took a dagger from his pocket.
“This thing can hurt me, as long as I wipe my neck, I can go back to that world, and then wipe my neck in that world, then it’s all over.”
Nobody wanted to speak up, but stopped again, as if he didn’t know what to say.
Zhang Jue smiled at him, holding the sharp dagger in his hand like a slow stab at his own neck.
five centimeters.
four centimeters.
three centimeters.
two centimeters.
Under nobody’s gaze, Zhang Jue’s hand gradually approached his throat.
It finally stopped just a millimeter or so from the skin.
Seeing nobody’s nervous eyes, Zhang Jue laughed again.
He laughed louder and louder, so happy.
Nobody’s brows furrowed deeply.
Zhang Jue finally stopped his smile and said, “Why, are you disappointed that this knife didn’t go down?”
nobody spoke.
Zhang Jue circled the dagger in his hand, and the tip of the knife pointed at nobody: “Okay, stop pretending, grandson only uses it, I’ve already seen your identity.”
“Oh?” nobody’s tone was getting colder, “then tell me, who am I?”
“You are not sent by my father, you are not from Ma Ruowen, and you are not from fighting demons.” Zhang Jue said while looking up and down at nobody.
At this moment, the knowing smile returned to his face.
His expression has changed from the previous confusion to confident.
This is the familiar Zhang Jue.
nobody looked at him with a calm expression: “Anything else?”
“Of course—actually, I know that you are none of you, because you don’t belong to this world at all, or even this dimension, I’m right, nobody.”
Zhang Jue stared into his eyes, and finally said: “Or, I should call you the upper-level narrator, or – the author, right?”
