Chapter 270 Oh~ So good!
Chapter 270 Oh~ So good!
Chapter 270, Ah~ So obedient!
In Zone C, the middle-aged man who opened the boundary slightly and placed the various souls into Zone A was waiting for them to destroy every building so that he could destroy the 'central system' within.
But then he suddenly realized that the energy fluctuations in his area had become familiarly dim again.
The middle-aged man was immediately alarmed and hurriedly ran towards Zone D, just as he was about to turn around.
Something soft yet resilient suddenly wrapped around his neck, like a lasso used to tether a horse, binding him firmly.
"Well!"
The middle-aged man was caught off guard and was dragged to the ground. Just as he was about to use the black threads on his body, he suddenly felt his whole body stiffen and his thoughts began to become blurry uncontrollably.
Behind him, a barefoot boy stared intently at him, blood streaming from his seven orifices.
Her eyes were filled with resentment and hatred, as if they were about to materialize and pierce him!
Despite the excruciating pain in his head, Number 01 used his abilities to firmly control the middle-aged man, rendering him powerless to move.
Then, many thin, small figures suddenly darted out from behind him, stepping on the inexplicably dim light that appeared in Zone C, and quickly pounced on the middle-aged man who was half-lying on the ground.
"Sizzle!"
"Crack, creak..."
The sounds of tearing flesh and bone echoed in layers.
At the boundary between Zone A and Zone C, all that remained for a moment were the sounds of the ghost children tearing and snapping bones.
Number 01 waited only a short while before stopping them. It slowly walked to the middle-aged man, who was now just a skeleton and unrecognizable, and used its right hand to slowly restore him with energy.
Then, just as they had taken control of the middle-aged man's limbs and freed his mind, they unleashed the hateful ghost children once again, starting a new round of biting and tearing.
And so, under his clear mind, the middle-aged man repeated the cycle of restoration and fragmentation over and over again.
Only after almost all the ghost children had vented their hatred did Number 01 step forward and stomp on his head until it was smashed.
Only then was this third underground level area completely integrated and unified, with all authority now in his hands.
Qi Min followed No. 01 for a while when he led those ghost children to Area C. After seeing him endure the discomfort and use his energy to forcibly open the boundary and control the middle-aged man, Qi Min watched from a short distance behind him.
Until he saw the ghost children, who had become accustomed to his presence, swarm him and begin tearing and biting.
Qi Min then withdrew his gaze and returned to the place where his body had been pieced together by Number 01.
A while later, as Qi Min was organizing the last of the documents, the little ghost baby that had disappeared earlier slowly entered through the door.
Upon seeing it, Qi Min gathered the documents in his hand, walked over, picked it up from the ground, and casually exchanged for an apple, handing it to it. Watching it sniff the apple with its nose, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"This is an apple, it's edible, want to try some?"
The little ghost baby hugged an apple half the size of his small face and took a bite under Qi Min's watchful gaze.
A dent appeared on the apple, and the little ghost baby was delighted by the strange texture and taste. Its round eyes quickly curved into two crescent moons, and it grinned at Qi Min with the fruit in its mouth.
Qi Min's eyes softened at the sight, and he reached out to stroke its head, smiling as he spoke.
"You like it? Call me 'brother' and I'll give you another one!"
Qi Min spoke softly in a coaxing tone. The little ghost baby was roused by his touch and raised its head, making two indistinct noises with the fruit in its mouth.
"Gah... Go!"
"Oh, so good!"
Two indistinct "brother"s immediately made Qi Min happily respond. He smiled and took out another apple, stuffing it into its arms, and then began to keep bothering it to call out "brother."
Qi Min only stopped with a smile when the little ghost baby, unable to eat properly due to his interference, crawled away somewhat unhappily.
All of this was observed by Number 01 after he finished dealing with the matter, watching Qi Min's actions, which were completely genuine and based entirely on his own conscience.
He felt a slight pang of envy, as he recalled the memories of being cared for and teased by his family when he was with those adults three months ago.
At the time, he didn't understand why the child in the picture looked exactly like him, yet his experiences were completely different.
It wasn't until later that Number 01 realized that although they were both human, they had different fates.
He was a human being created to appear in this world, never born with expectations.
Those who lead lives so drastically different from his are the ones who walk in the light of this world.
Number 01 sometimes thinks, what if he wasn't the test subject, what if he hadn't been born here.
If he were the same child as those in the memories he was searching for, would his fate have been different...?
But life doesn't offer so many "what ifs," and the memories he saw could never become his.
Number 01 lowered his eyes, feeling somewhat gloomy. Even the exhilaration of killing that old beast and the excitement of completely gaining control of all areas seemed to have been blown away by this sudden thought.
Qi Min was coaxing the little ghost baby not to be angry and promised not to tease it anymore, but his eyes caught sight of the little boy standing at the door with his head down, looking somewhat lost and dejected.
"What's wrong? Is something not going well?"
Qi Min put down the little ghost baby in his hand and walked towards him. The young boy saw his slightly concerned eyes and immediately put away his chaotic thoughts, reverting to his serious and cool demeanor.
"No, everything went smoothly. This whole area is now under my jurisdiction!"
The young boy spoke in a calm tone, and his words were also nonchalant.
But Qi Min could still detect a hint of smugness in the expression on his face, which wasn't entirely hidden.
She pursed her lips, finding it somewhat amusing, and suppressed the smile that was about to spill from her mouth.
"Okay, as long as it goes smoothly!"
Qi Min looked at the young boy with gentle eyes. From now on, there would be no more scientific monsters in this area who would treat them as experimental subjects and want to kill them.
From then on, even as spirits, they could move freely in this area without worrying about the dangers of another area.
