Chapter 154 I am saving the future (5k)
Right below the air-raid shelter, a demon was sorting a pile of books and documents, wiping each book and document clean and stuffing them into waterproof bags.
He looks like a gorilla, with thick hair, an upturned nose, and two high-up fangs in his mouth, making him look ferocious.
But his clothes were meticulously dressed and very neat, and he wore a pair of glasses, which gave him a scholarly air.
"Mr. Black."
A demon rushed in and said, "Humans have broken in. Please leave quickly."
"leave?"
Black Agate shook his head slowly and rejected the other party's proposal: "Every one of us who came here has already put life and death aside, so where is the way out?"
He spoke slowly and even in a gentle manner.
If you ignore his appearance, he looks like a knowledgeable university professor.
"But you are different!"
The demon in front of him was very anxious: "You are the most powerful scholar among us Blasphemers. You can't sacrifice yourself in a place like this. Blasphemers and Dragon Realm can't lose you."
"No one is expendable, kid, including me."
Black Agate stuffed a book into a waterproof bag and handed it to the demon. "While the people above are fighting, you can sneak out and take these books and documents away for me. You can keep them for yourself or give them to others. It's all up to you."
Seeing Black Agate's attitude, the demon knew that he could not persuade him.
The demon did not take the waterproof bag, but shook his head and said firmly: "Master Hei, I have no intention of running away. You are right. Anyone can be sacrificed, including me."
He bowed to Black Onyx, then turned and ran out in a hurry.
"The black dragon will win, and the glory will last forever."
Black Onyx heard the demon shouting outside.
The demons that escaped from the Dragon Realm all believed that they were descendants of the Black Dragon Emperor, just as the blasphemers claimed that they were descended from the previous generation of the Black Dragon Emperor. Their purpose was to oppose the current Queen of the Dragon Realm and to revive the glory of the Black Dragon Emperor.
Black Onyx sighed slightly.
He is also a blasphemer, but what he has in his heart is not the Black Dragon Emperor, not the blasphemer, and not just the people of the Dragon Realm, but the entire world.
After hiding the waterproof bag, Black Agate left the place where he had lived for more than half a year.
He walked into a secret room. There was nothing in the room except a pool with a diameter of about two meters.
The water that is constantly rolling in the pool is all water returning to its source.
However, unlike the extremely transparent return water outside, the return water here is deep blue like sea water.
Black Agate took off all his clothes and folded them neatly aside, and also put his glasses on top.
"The success rate is only 30%. It's a risk and a gamble."
Black Agate muttered to himself and walked towards the pool.
As soon as his feet stepped into the pool, they began to melt.
The intense pain came, and Black Agate's face changed slightly. But he did not hesitate, and still stepped firmly into the pool.
"For the future of the world, can I hold on?"
"No, I can hold on."
As he said this, Black Agate's entire body dissolved into the pool, leaving only a mass of black and red liquid.
Gradually, the liquid also disappeared.
……
When Shen Cheng arrived at the underground air-raid shelter, the battle was almost over.
This is normal. After all, this is human territory and the demons can only sneak around like rats in a sewer.
Once exposed, they will only end up in failure, and the General Security Bureau has mobilized all its forces. Unless all the blasphemers hide here, they will not be able to withstand the attack and will not even have enough heads to fight against.
There are only three extraordinary ones among these demons, and the others are elites. Except for the bull-horned demon, the remaining demons have to face nine high-level demon hunters, nine extraordinary ones.
The battle lasted less than two minutes and it was almost over.
The giant underwater machine was also destroyed and no longer transported water back to the source into the pipes. The rainfall on the ground should have stopped as well.
Only the ox-horned demon is still struggling.
He is also at the extraordinary level, and one of the top powers among the extraordinary level. He is only one step away from being a master, which is why he was able to hold out for so long under Lu Jinglong's attack.
But now he was covered in blood, one of his arms was broken, and he was only holding on with one breath.
When Shen Cheng arrived here, he just saw Lu Jinglong punching the bull-horned demon in the chest.
A large mass of flesh and blood exploded from the chest of the bull-horned demon, and it was almost ripped open and fell from the air.
boom!
He did not fall into the returning water, but hit the shore, creating a big hole.
The water returning to its source flowed in and touched his feet.
Despite being a strong life-type creature, the Bull-Horned Demon's feet melted quickly, and in a blink of an eye not even bones were left.
Lu Jinglong fell from the sky and stood beside the big pit, looking down at the bull-horned monster with its feet melted and looking miserable.
He said with a regretful tone: "People like you, no, demons like you should die on the battlefield, not in such a dark sewer."
He had dealt with the bull-horned demon many times. Although they were enemies, he still admired the character of the bull-horned demon. But the other party actually came to carry out a terrorist attack.
"We are not demons, we are descendants of the black dragon. Our history is longer and more glorious than yours."
The horned demon retorted, and then chuckled: "It doesn't matter. All of you who come here will be buried with me, including the millions and tens of millions of humans in this city. They will all be buried with us."
Lu Jinglong shook his head: "I thought your two horns were hard enough, but I didn't expect your mouth to be harder than your horns. You are already like this, can't you say some last words?"
The ox-horned demon was not depressed by Lu Jinglong's ridicule, but burst into laughter instead.
"The Black Dragon will win, and the glory will last forever!"
The bull-horned demon shouted slogans and used his remaining hand to push against the bottom of the pit, letting his body roll towards the returning water next to him.
In the blink of an eye, the ox-horned demon was completely dissolved in the water returning to its source.
Looking at the black and red liquid mixed in the water, Lu Jinglong frowned slightly.
It wasn't that he was shocked by the Bull-Horned Demon's heroic act of readying himself for death. He had lived for so long and experienced countless battles. He had seen too many people who were not afraid of death. The Bull-Horned Demon was not the first, and would not be the last.
He was just doubting what the Bull-Horned Demon said before he died. That confident look on his face might not be groundless.
But what else can the blasphemer do?
Sending in a fighter with combat power close to the master level to sacrifice is probably already very painful for the blasphemer, so he can't send in a real master as well, right?
Even if they really send in a master, with so many of them, they will be able to kill the other side in turns.
The other nine senior demon hunters have gathered together to discuss how to deal with the large amount of returning water in front of them.
Shen Cheng did not show up and continued to hide himself using cognitive modification.
Not having to participate in the battle is a good thing for him. At least he doesn't have to worry about exposing his abilities and identity.
With the death of the bull-horned demon, a large amount of resentment filled the air-raid shelter.
Of course Shen Cheng wouldn't be polite. He directly summoned the evil ghost mask and began to absorb.
Devil Mask +95%
The last 5% is still missing. I don’t know where to find so much resentment, unless I encounter a large number of people with special abilities, or the death of master-level people with special abilities.
After absorbing the resentment, Shen Cheng prepared to look for the whereabouts of Black Agate. The other party was a scholar without combat ability and should not be able to run far.
Just as he was about to take action, the entire underground air-raid shelter suddenly shook violently, and a huge amount of water returning to its source also rolled up waves.
Lu Jinglong and his men immediately became alert, thinking that a new enemy had appeared.
Ruan Qingsha looked at the water below and suddenly said in surprise: "The water level is dropping!"
Not only her, but everyone else also noticed that the water returning to its source like a reservoir in front of them was rapidly decreasing.
They are worrying about how to deal with the water that returns to the source. If there is a hole under the air-raid shelter, then it would be a good thing if the water seeps into the ground.
"Be alert."
Lu Jinglong's serious voice suddenly sounded.
Only then did everyone notice that the water level around them had indeed dropped, but the water in the middle was swelling.
It's not that the water level is dropping, but that all the water is converging towards the center at a very fast speed.
When the surrounding water disappeared, revealing the bottom of the air-raid shelter, a water giant with a height of 30 meters appeared in the middle. The originally clear water of the source turned into a deep sea blue in the body of this water giant.
Its head almost touched the top of the air-raid shelter, and its huge body brought a strong sense of oppression.
"Be careful."
Someone shouted loudly because the water giant had raised its palm and slapped it hard at the demon hunters below.
The rest of the people dodged away, only Hu Zong stayed where he was, ready to test the strength of the water giant.
He formed his telekinesis into a huge axe and chopped down the water giant's falling arm.
At the moment of impact, the water giant's arm was not cut off, but his mental power disappeared without a trace.
Hu Zong's face changed drastically, but it was too late to dodge.
boom!
The water giant slapped the ground.
If it were ordinary water, this slap would cause it to crack on its own.
However, the water returning to its source is self-contained and not only does not disperse, but instead has strong adhesion.
"Hu Zong."
The demon hunters who had dodged saw this scene and cried out in surprise. They couldn't believe that a high-level demon hunter was killed like this.
But it took them seconds to find a figure tumbling out from the water giant's palm.
It was Hu Zong. He did not die, but used his telekinesis to pull himself out in time at the critical moment.
However, he was a little slow, and his calves were touched by the returning water, and everything below the knees melted. The liquid also adhered to the wound, constantly eroding his body.
Hu Zong was also a ruthless man. He immediately used his telekinesis to cut off everything below the thighs.
He endured the severe pain and warned others: "Be careful, this guy can absorb my telekinesis."
"Isn't it?"
The rest were all shocked.
The water giant did not give them time to react. After missing the first attack, he immediately raised his arm again and swept towards the demon hunters.
The demon hunters were well-trained and immediately dispersed on the spot, attacking the water giant from all directions at the same time.
But their attacks did not cause much damage to the water giant. Just as Hu Zong said, the water giant was actually able to absorb their abilities.
Previously, the General Security Bureau had also conducted research on the water returning to its source, but they didn’t realize that it had such an effect.
However, the water giant before them was different from the returning water they had known before. The previous returning water was extremely clear, but now this water giant had turned a distinct blue, just like sea water.
People with life-type abilities like Ruan Qingsha can only stand by and do nothing.
They all used their fists and feet to fight the water giant. Before they could blow up the opponent, they would probably be melted first.
"Step aside!"
With a loud shout, everyone saw the damaged large machine start to move.
Lu Jinglong stood below and actually lifted up the machine weighing at least hundreds of tons with both hands and smashed it hard at the water giant in front of him.
Everyone's eyes lit up. The water returning to its source could dissolve living things, but it would not dissolve other substances.
Facing the machine that was smashing towards him, the water giant punched it. He smashed his fist on the machine and actually blocked the machine.
However, the next second, Lu Jinglong jumped high and kicked the back of the machine.
The enormous force caused the steel-made machine to twist and deform, and also smashed the entire arm of the water giant, directly hitting its head and torso.
The water giant was knocked back, his head and neck cracked.
Someone with sharp eyes discovered that there was a person hidden in the chest of the water giant.
No, it's a monster that looks like a gorilla.
Everyone was shocked. Wasn't it said that the returning water could melt all living things? How could there be a demon hidden in it? Could this guy also be made of water?
Lu Jinglong, who was still in the air, saw the appearance of this demon clearly and shouted, "Black Agate, what do you want to do?"
The other senior demon hunters showed surprised expressions again. Lu Jinglong actually knew this demon?
Shen Cheng, who was hiding in the dark, also instantly perked up his spirits, his eyes fixed on the black agate.
He couldn't guarantee that Black Agate would leave a will after his death, so the best way was to capture him alive.
However, it was obviously a bit unrealistic to want to capture their target alive in front of a master and nine high-level demon hunters.
Moreover, the black agate hidden in the returning water is also a huge trouble.
But as a human being, you should always have some dreams, otherwise what is the difference between you and a seal? You just lie down all day long.
The water giant's shattered torso quickly recovered, but it did not take the next step. The black agate hidden inside slowly emerged.
He looked down at Lu Jinglong who had fallen to the ground. He said hello, "It's been a long time since we last met, Mr. Lu."
"Cut the nonsense."
Lu Jinglong interrupted his greeting impatiently: "Why do you want to help the wicked and help the blasphemers carry out terrorist attacks?"
He had known Black Agate for a long time and knew that Black Agate was a kind-hearted biologist who was not hostile to humans or vampires just because he was a demon.
So when Ruan Qingsha said that the demon scholar who invented the water of return to the source was Black Agate, Lu Jinglong didn't quite believe it.
He thought it might be a homonym, or someone might have used Black Agate's name.
But after seeing the black agate at this moment, Lu Jinglong had to believe that it was really him.
Facing Lu Jinglong's accusations, a hint of sadness flashed in Black Onyx's eyes.
He was not angry, but continued to speak in a slow tone: "Whether you believe it or not, Mr. Lu, I am not helping the evil, I am just using the power of the blasphemer to carry out a..."
He paused, then continued, "Let's make an attempt that goes beyond our capabilities."
Lu Jinglong was a little annoyed: "Speak human language."
"I am a demon, how can I speak human language?"
Black Onyx made a cold joke, then said seriously: "I am saving the future."
After saying that, he merged into the water giant again, leaving everyone confused.
Then, his voice rang out from the water giant.
"I'm sorry, everyone. For the sake of the future, I have to kill you here with my own hands."
The water giant's back bulged and four arms sprouted again.
It waved a total of six arms, raised them high, and slapped the demon hunters below hard as if slapping a fly.
Lu Jinglong tried to pick up the wreckage of the machine he threw out, but the water giant noticed his intention and spit out water.
A huge column of water was sprayed out by it and rushed towards Lu Jinglong.
Even though Lu Jinglong was a master-level life-type ability user, he did not dare to come into contact with the returning water that could dissolve living things, and could only dodge away.
boom! boom! boom!
The water giant kept waving his six arms, causing the entire underground air-raid shelter to shake continuously.
The demon hunters were beaten up and down and were in a critical situation.
This was not an equal battle at all. They were unable to attack the water giant as their abilities had been absorbed. The only ones who could come into contact with the water giant were those with life-type abilities, and they were afraid of being melted by the returning water.
However, the water giants could attack them recklessly, and they didn't even dare to resist.
While the water giant was chasing the demon hunter with its arms, it raised its head and pointed it at the ceiling of the air-raid shelter, then opened its mouth and spit.
A huge column of water hit the ceiling and then turned into heavy rain, covering the entire air-raid shelter below and attacking everyone indiscriminately.
Hu Zong wanted to use his mental power to resist the falling water returning to the source, but the water returning to the source also had the effect of absorption, which directly penetrated his mental power.
"They all hid behind me."
An extraordinary guardian shouted and raised his hands high, forming a huge shield to protect all the rushing demon hunters behind him.
As a representative of idealistic power, the Guardian Light can withstand all types of attacks.
And this time he did not disappoint, his guardian shield indeed blocked all the falling returning water.
But the guardian's face changed. He found that his strength was being depleted too quickly and he couldn't hold on for long.
The water giant had raised its six arms and was about to hit the guardian shield.
