I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon - Chapter 211
Chapter 211: Was Just A Shell
When he got home, it was already one o’clock in the afternoon.
The sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was extremely hot.
Fortunately, he had spent the entire journey in an air-conditioned car. Once he got off the car, he immediately entered the house.
The bookstore was warm in winter and cool in summer all year round. Regardless of the weather outside, the temperature in the bookstore was always at a comfortable 20 degrees Celsius.
Therefore, Ling Pingan didn’t even break a sweat.
However..
He felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the Teacup and made himself a cup of tea.
Meow!
The kitten Bastet meowed softly.
Ling Pingan smiled and gave half of it to his pet.
The man and the cat sat at the counter on this hot summer day and drank the fragrant tea. They felt that the world was incomparably peaceful.
After finishing the tea, Ling Pingan felt a little hungry.
So, he took out his phone and ordered a rice with beef.
… … ..
Walking in the violent dust.
Ran Bing expressionlessly crossed a desolate canyon.
In the dust in front of her, shadows could be seen. It was as if there was a cluster of buildings on the ground.
She could not help but frown.
That was because she saw that there were faint lights in those buildings!
And as everyone knew, ever since the Old World collapsed, the ground was no longer suitable for life!
“Could it be…” She thought, “It’s a protective umbrella?”
And so, she immediately became excited.
The rifle in her hand let out a low roar.
Those were bullets dancing!
Ran Bing comforted it and then switched it from the rifle form to the revolver form.
Opening the magazine, eight bullets cheered as they changed their form.
From high explosive armor-piercing bullets that were used to kill Scarlet Beasts, they became non-lethal stun bullets.
This was the latest ability that her gun spirit had cultivated.
It could change the shape of the bullet!
According to different needs, she could switch between high explosive armor-piercing bullets, stun bullets, and grenades at any time.
Of course, the consumption of different bullets was different.
For example, she could only prepare eight high explosive armor-piercing bullets at one time.
As for stun bullets, she could only prepare twelve bullets.
As for grenades, she could only prepare one bullet!
If she wanted to increase the number of bullets, she would have to use her own flesh and soul to refine bullets!
Fortunately, she could use battle to nourish herself. There were plenty of scarlet beasts in this world!
Therefore, she did not have to worry about expending too much energy.
Holding the revolver in her hand, ran Bing carefully approached the building in front of her.
When she got closer, Ran Bing realized that this building complex was different from the ruins of the Old World that she had seen before.
It was built in the middle of a dry lake.
All the buildings were relatively flat and short.
In the dust, a searchlight constantly illuminated the surroundings.
There was a faint shadow of a person swaying on the tower.
Ran Bing crawled and carefully approached the building in the dust storm.
There was a tall wall on the periphery of this building complex. If one looked up carefully, one could see that there were heavy machine guns on the tall wall.
People wearing exoskeleton armor were moving on the wall.
Ran Bing lay on the ground in the dust and looked up at their equipment.
The silver streamlined body shape was filled with the art and beauty of technology.
There was no doubt that it was something that could only be made in the Old World!
Looking at this, Ran Bing clenched her fists.
She moved gently and approached the high wall.
At this moment, a murmur suddenly sounded in her ear, “There are relics of the Kunyang people here…”
“Huh?”
The murmur softly said, “Yes, this is the relic of the Kunyang People!”
Ran Bing raised her head and looked at the top of the high wall.
She knew that she was already close to the truth.
But..
How could she enter?
She looked at the heavily guarded place, which was surrounded by high walls, electric fences, heavy machine guns, and even turrets.
Ran Bing had no idea what to do.
“Go forward fifty meters, turn right…” A voice suddenly whispered in her ear.
Ran Bing did as she was told.
She crawled and slowly moved forward in the sandstorm, carefully avoiding the searchlight.
A few minutes later, she moved to a corner under the high wall.
There was a blind spot here, so the searchlight could not reach her.
“Dig through the soil…” She heard the voice murmur.
Ran Bing thought for a moment and did as she was told.
She carefully used her hands to dig through the soil under her body bit by bit.
She dug the soil very quickly, and not long after, she dug a huge pit that was dozens of centimeters deep.
At this moment, she saw a metallic luster at the bottom of the pit.
It was the color of bronze.
“This is?” Ran Bing reached out and touched the surface of the metal. There was a strange evil eye on it.
“Twist it!” The murmuring continued, “Turn left three times, turn right three times, repeat this process ten times!”
Ran Bing did as she was told.
She gently twisted the protruding evil eye.
As expected, it could be rotated. Three times to the left, three times to the right, and repeated ten times.
With a cracking sound, it seemed that some mechanism had been opened.
Crack!
The entire ground collapsed!
Ran Bing fell down with it!
At this moment, the guards and guards above her finally noticed it.
One after another, people wearing streamlined exoskeletons like metal people fell from the high wall.
“SH * T” They looked at the collapsed area. “Intruders!”
“Hurry and inform Dr. Kaman!”
… … … … … ..
Ran Bing landed with the collapsed soil and metal.
After landing for at least a few hundred meters, she finally saw light.
It was a faint blue light!
Bang!
The soil, rocks, and metal fell into the vast underground world with a dull thud.
Meanwhile, Ran Bing had already jumped into the karst cave on the other side.
At this moment, she realized that the faint blue light in this underground world was emitted by the moss that lived underground.
Moss could emit light?
Moreover, it could become a source of light?
This itself was already surprising enough.
“Forward!” A whisper whispered in her ear.
Ran Bing picked up her revolver and looked in front of the cave. At the end of the cave, there seemed to be a man-made pipe.
Ran Bing walked over to the pipe. With the light from the moss in the cave, she could clearly see the inscription on the pipe: Umbrella!
It was umbrella!
The Old World Organization that had disappeared!
Ran Bing tried to get into the pipe, but she failed because the pipe was too narrow!
However, she found a new cave beside the tunnel.
So, she walked in and followed the tunnel. After walking for hundreds of meters, a man-made heavy metal door appeared in front of her.
To her surprise, the door was ajar.
She pulled it open lightly.
It was pitch black inside the door, but when she walked in and sensed someone entering, the lights started to light up.
What greeted her eyes was a huge underground warehouse!
One huge crystal jar after another filled it.
Tubes connected to these crystal jars, and the jars were filled with humanoid creatures.
They seemed to have been dead for a long time.
But their bodies that were soaked in these crystal jars were still intact.
As if sensing the presence of humans, the creatures in the crystal jars suddenly regained their vitality.
Pairs of eyes opened one after another.
Ruthless, cold, crazy..
They collectively looked at Ran Bing, causing Ran Bing’s scalp to go numb.
“Ants enslaved by the Stairway of the Sun!” The murmurs beside her ear started laughing.
“Stairway of the Sun?” Ran Bing didn’t quite understand.
“The Stairway of the Sun is the tobacco of the Kunyang people!” The murmurs said softly, “The Kunyang people grow these little things for fun and recreation…”
A hazy scene flashed in front of Ran Bing’s eyes.
Pyramids were built underground one after another.
Ferocious and terrifying plants were planted in the shadows of the pyramids by some creatures.
When they needed them, they would descend on these pyramids and randomly pick up bloody plants, grinding them into powder and inhaling them into their nostrils.
They would numb themselves while inhaling and exhaling.
This scene flashed past. Ran Bing had a vague impression of the so-called ‘Stairway of the Sun’.
“To the Kunyang people, the Stairway of the Sun is like tobacco…”
“But to most low-level creatures, the Stairway of the Sun is a highly toxic thing that can enslave and change their minds…”
“These test subjects are the poor fellows who became deformed after being injected with the original solution of the Stairway of the Sun!”
“They have become the slaves of the Stairway of the Sun!”
“It’s hopeless!”
Ran Bing’s scalp went numb when she heard that.
Because she finally realized that umbrella corporation was using humans as living experiments!
The monsters in these crystal tanks were created by them!
“There’s a way…” Ran Bing looked at the monsters in the crystal tanks and thought that they might be of the same species. She could not help but ask, “Can we set them free?”
“Simple…”
“Find the source of enslaving them!”
“Destroy it!”
“When the Stairway of the Sun is destroyed, all the creatures that are enslaved and controlled by it will rot simultaneously!”
“Otherwise, they will never be free!”
“Then…” Ran bing asked, “Where is the Stairway of the Sun?”
“In the pyramid!” The voice murmured.
Ran Bing immediately took the revolver in her hand, turned around and walked out of the room.
She was going to find the pyramid and destroy the so-called Stairway of the Sun!
Just as she stepped out of the door, a person wearing a white exoskeleton armor appeared from the cave ahead.
“Intruder!” He coldly raised the weapon in his hand.
However, Ran Bing was faster than him. The revolver in her hand shot out a stun bullet!
Boom!
The strong light enveloped his entire vision, causing him to fall into a state of blindness. At the same time, a loud sonic boom sounded, paralyzing all the nerves in his body!
Even though he had already been modified.
However, in this inexplicable stun explosion, he was still completely paralyzed!
The instant Ran Bing pulled the trigger, she moved forward against the light.
The stun bullet fired by her gun spirit was ineffective against her.
She quickly ran to the person who had already collapsed to the ground and easily grabbed the exoskeleton armor he was wearing.
With a whisper in her ear, she easily untied his exoskeleton armor.
She dragged a thin man out of it.
Ran Bing glanced at him and her pupils suddenly widened!
This person..
He wasn’t human!
More accurately speaking, the thing in her hand was a combination of a human and some unknown creature!
“As a low-level creature, he was actually able to fuse with the genes of a superior race!”Even the murmurs beside Ran Bing’s ears were astonished. “Even though the fusion wasn’t very successful, it’s already a miracle in itself!”
At this moment, voices came from all directions.
Obviously, the sonic boom just now had alarmed all the guards here.
Ran Bing did not have time to think. She picked up the ‘person’in her hand and quickly moved forward.
Under the guidance of the murmurs in her ears, she was like a fish in water in this underground world. She quickly disappeared into the layers of karst labyrinths.
..
In a daze, Charles woke up.
He opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar karst cave.
Before he could figure out what had happened.
He felt his soul tremble and turn cold.
A gun barrel was pressed against his chin.
The cold gun barrel seemed to have a life of its own. Some kind of monster that was like a natural enemy was mumbling crazily, wanting to devour his flesh and soul.
He raised his head and saw the person in front of him in the faint blue light of the karst cave.
An elegant young girl of 18 or 19 years old was looking at him coldly.
The ice-cold barrel of the gun was in the hands of the young girl.
“Charles!” The young girl sneered and said to him, “I advise you not to act rashly!”
“Otherwise, my gun spirit will eat you!”
“The Kunyang A-type gene you fused and modified is a great tonic for my spear spirit!”
The barrel of the gun in her hand let out a greedy neigh.
Charles stared blankly at this girl, a mortal who had not undergone any modifications!
However, it was this kind of mortal who could threaten him!
The great genetic modifier, the Immortal Immortal!
Charles looked at this mortal and took a deep breath. He opened his completely deformed mouth, which was like an insect’s mouth. It opened and closed like a flower bud. “What do you want? Mortal!”
“Are you here to seek eternal life?”
In his opinion, this mortal had probably heard some legend.
How dare he invade the great eternal base!
He was simply courting death!
The girl sneered. “Your so-called eternal life is not so much eternal life as a body!”
“It’s all just a body!”
“It’s also just a body!”
Charles listened and swallowed. His snake-like pupils suddenly enlarged. “How do you know?”
This was the biggest secret of the Immortals!
They had stolen the immortal genes of the Immortals!
But because of this, they had become the shells of the Immortals!
When the Immortals returned, they would no longer exist!
It was this crazy truth that forced them to explore, discover, and study everything left behind by the Immortals!
They hoped to find a way to escape the fate of the shells!
But..
Now, this secret was exposed by a mortal girl who had not undergone genetic modification!
This made Charles panic immediately.
“How do I know? It doesn’t matter!” The gun barrel in the girl’s hand was pressed against his throat. An eerie chill pressed against his soul. “Let me ask you, did you do the collapse of the Old World?”
Charles did not answer.
But the girl’s expression suddenly became ferocious.
Fury shot out of her eyes, and she pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Charles’s head was smashed into pieces.
The gun barrel greedily sucked the soul and flesh of the cyborg.
Soon, Charles’s body turned into a petrified statue.
The girl kicked lightly, and the petrified statue immediately shattered into powder.
The girl released a nameplate in her right hand. It was the identity nameplate of the cyborg named Charles, and it had all his information!
“Umbrella!” The girl looked up. “I swear, I will destroy you!”
