From star abyss

Modot is the waning moon.

This shocking fact instantly exploded the thoughts of everyone present. Almost everyone's brain shut down for a moment, but they immediately woke up the next moment.

"The waning moon..."

James II's face turned ugly in an instant.

In fact, Zeta-level strong men are definitely not uncommon in the universe. With his family background and connections, he has often come into contact with such strong men.

But Wan Yue is definitely a special group among the Zeta Order.

Sequential arcana, power of natural disasters, felonious thugs - these labels are stacked together, and that is not a simple addition. In terms of the degree of danger, it would take more than a dozen regular Zeta-level experts to compare. There is one person on the waning moon.

"What? I didn't expect that the real appearance of the famous space pirate in Layer Abyss would be like this?"

Zangyue put one hand on her hip, and there was no flaw in her almost enchantingly handsome face. His charm truly reached the point of being otherworldly and interfering with reality. The wind passed by him, so he had to stop and delay for a while, the water flow Wading past his feet, he reluctantly turned back several times to cut off the flow. The earth did not dare to pollute the soles of his shoes, and the sun shone just right, shrouding him in the sunset.

Not only does Zangyue's body lack the ferocity of a sinful thug, but her facial features are as exquisite and perfect as sculptures, showing an unearthly holiness under the shining light.

Maria, who had been standing next to James II just now to cheer, saw the strong and well-proportioned muscles of the moon and the perfect and stunning face. She froze in place, breathing heavier, blushing and heartbeat, even though she knew The other party is a wanted criminal in the universe who is extremely evil. Her instinct is still awakened and she completely falls under his charm.

Lucite took a few steps back and stood in front of Hobbes. His eyes were covered with red film to filter out the clear face of the moon. He was afraid that he would be disturbed by the extraordinary charm and his mentality would be shaken.

"The waning moon..."

Hobbes clenched his fists and lay on the ground, his eyes burning with anger.

Lucite naturally understood his mood at this moment - from previous exchanges with the pickets, he had already learned that Hobbs's friend, Lena Yining, died in the hands of the colonial soldiers in the waning moon three years ago. .

As for the relationship between the two... Anyway, you can tell by looking at Hobbes' expression that it must be very deep.

‘What should we do now? ’

This question suddenly appeared in everyone's mind.

I thought it was like a game, step by step, defeat monsters and level up, get to know powerful teammates, enhance relationships, and finally fight the BOSS.

However, they had just gone out, and in the end, the BOSS had completely defeated all their carefully reserved strength, leaving all the personnel dead and injured, and appeared in front of them when their strength was at its lowest.

Even James II, who had the highest status and the most powerful background among the people, felt at a loss when faced with this scene. He looked at the way Zan Yue narrowed her eyes and smiled, and felt horrified.

Resist?

There was not a single Zeta Order present, so why should he resist?

escape?

Don't you think it's ridiculous to talk about running away in front of a man who travels through dimensions at will?

surrender.

This is a good idea, but is surrendering to Zangyue really a good outcome?

The other party slaughtered the city without blinking an eye, led them all the way here, and killed the women who were loyal to him without any ceremony - can such a person be rational?

He had no choice but to follow Zang Yue's topic to see if he could find out any news that could ease the other party's mood:

"I...compared to your identity, your appearance really shocks people a lot."

"What's wrong with my identity?" Canyue said innocently, "My career is wonderful, isn't it? I'm willing to help others, so when I saw you had difficulty studying, I helped you blow up the school; I'm charitable, and saw that you couldn't access the Forbidden Library. , and the Forbidden Library was unsealed."

"Uh..." Cold sweat broke out on James II's forehead: "This is true, in a sense, it can indeed be said like this."

"What is your purpose?" Lucite suddenly asked.

"Hey -" James II panicked: "You bitch, don't be so straightforward -"

Lucite ignored it and tried hard to bear the pressure of the Zeta level. He felt that the body fluids in his body were evaporating every moment. With his mere mortal strength of Gamma level, he was simply not enough to face such a strong man. .

Therefore, he became even more confused.

Why, even though he knew they were mortals, Can Yue still didn't just kill them?

"He deliberately brought us here and killed his cronies."

"You should know that with your own charm, it is very easy to make Silia obey you completely - but you killed her? Why did you do this?"

" Along the way, you have actively played the role of a responsible and accomplished senior, rushing to the front line in every battle - I don't understand, if you want to win our trust by doing this, why do you suddenly reveal your identity?"

"If we are alive and useful to you - but I really can't find anything that Lao Huo and I, two common people, have in common with these two second-generation officials - except that we all go to the same school. .”

"I want to know...Zangyue, why are you doing this?"

Cangyue replied smoothly:

"Fun."

No hesitation at all, no hesitation in answering.

"...fun?"

Lucite was stunned.

"Do you think it's a game to lead us to escape and fight our way out of the siege?"

Zangetsu pressed the bag behind his waist with one hand, which contained the forbidden knowledge of identifying the incarnation of the eye fragment.

'Poor kid...the gap in strength is so big that he doesn't even have the courage to doubt. ’

——How could it be just for fun?

This was done not just to avoid Babluska's sight, but to delay it for a while.

The forbidden knowledge must be handed over sooner or later, but it is up to him to decide how long it can be used in his hands.

Zangyue had already calculated that Babluska would send Ye Die's troops to supervise him. In this case, by allowing the forbidden knowledge to be 'protected and carried' by the students, he would have enough time and excuse to 'find the whereabouts of the target'.

How long will it take to search? It depends on how long it takes to use up this knowledge.

Lucite didn't think so.

The differences in strength, information, and thinking are huge. He is just a mortal. In one day, he experienced a terrorist attack, the death of a classmate, the secret told by Hobbes, being treated differently by the pickets, and then faced the Zeta Order.

With so many people dead, Waning Yue must have an ulterior motive, right? He must have a special reason to deliberately leave their lives behind.

"Fun."

However, Zangetsu's answer made Lucite's head buzz.

They struggled to survive, fighting bloody battles with hope, escaping after experiencing an earthquake disaster, and confronting Silia at gunpoint.

These actions... in the eyes of Zangyue of the Zeta level, are they just dismissed easily by saying 'fun'?

Lucite stood there blankly.

Watching this boy's outlook being violently impacted, Canyue felt happy.

The more this happened, the more he wanted to amuse him.

Besides, he did find it fun.

"if not?"

Waning Moon shrugged:

"Do you think you are special?"

"I……"

Lucite opened his mouth, but was immediately interrupted by Zangyue:

"I just like to play role-playing, just like mortals like to put ants in bottles and watch them build their homes. Have you ever imagined that - looking at the ants locked in the glass palace, you can become one yourself? Break into the ant nest and stage various joys and sorrows and epic legends in the ant empire."

The waning moon spreads its hands:

"The Star Abyss has six layers, and each layer is a universe. There are even 13 narrative-level civilizations. The combined population is more than the number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the entire universe. It's hard to count. Why do you think that in that place? Among all the people in the sea, are you the only one?"

"I don't feel that way...I just, I can't accept it."

Lucite covered his heart. The other person's aura and charm mixed together, making him feel like he was being pressed down by a mountain. No matter what he said, he felt that he would have to use all his strength.

His three-meter-tall body, in front of the opponent's majestic ocean-like aura, was like a drop of water that would be dissolved and swallowed up in an instant.

Facing the waning moon, he understood for the first time why people called Zeta Order the 'earth god'.

Existences beyond the Zeta level can no longer be observed by mortals. They live in a privileged environment that is very different from ordinary people. The Zeta level is the limit that mortals can understand with their narrow thinking. They can follow their own body shapes, Guess the limit of the opponent's terrifying strength.

"Lucite, do you like playing games?"

Cangyue put her hands behind her back, walked around the four of them with a smile, and walked slowly:

“When I was 12 years old, I stole my first game console. It was a role-playing game. The protagonist could upgrade by fighting monsters, improve his attributes, learn skills, and then help NPCs complete tasks. You can get paid.”

“Everyone has imagined that they are the protagonist of the game, the center of the world, and the beloved of the plane. They dream of becoming powerful through their own efforts and realizing their dreams—but in the end, most people find that they are just an NPC, an NPC. Just randomly generated passers-by.”

Quietly, Zangyue slowly walked to James II's side. Before the latter could react, his body disappeared in an instant.

"Actually, games are the same as the real world. Games are life, and life is also a game. We are pursuing the path to godhood called Tao in the Star Abyss precisely because we know that mortals have no future. Only Deng Shen is the real protagonist of this game."

Zangyue grabbed a card, which showed James II with horrifying eyes and a distorted face.

"Now, Lucite, do you understand?"

He turned his head and said with a smile:

"Mortals are just NPCs, and those who ascend to the gods are players."

"I can do whatever I want to you. I can be stupid, confused, and make mistakes. I can chat with you leisurely here - because I am closer to God. I can fail countless times, and once you If you experience setbacks, you will never get up."

The next moment, his figure appeared next to Maria, and his fingertips gently lifted the president's daughter's chin. The other party came into close contact with Zangyue's flawless appearance, and was bombarded by her hormones in an instant. The passionate pheromones completely enveloped her and dominated her, causing her to fall immediately, both psychologically and physically.

Zangyue squeezed gently, and her body disappeared in an instant. He turned around and appeared in front of Lucite again in an instant. He raised his hand, waving the two cards held between his index and middle fingers, with a smile on his face:

"Lucite, you are just an NPC, and I am the player. The NPC can never understand the player's thinking, because we are never in the same world."

——Can’t move!

Lucite's pupils were constricted. Under the pressure of the other party's strong aura, his body was completely frozen in place, daring not to move at all. He was trembling physiologically and instinctively, his knees were weak, and he wanted to kneel down.

He couldn't move, couldn't move at all, and couldn't muster the courage or thought to resist.

yes.

Lucite immediately understood where that physical weakness came from.

"Old road..." Hobbes groaned.

——Man cannot face God directly. For God, man can only kneel down to Him.

"Don't...don't kneel down..." Hobbes struggled and tried his best to crawl towards this side, but the injuries on his body made the one meter distance feel like a chasm.

——Unable to resist, unable to resist, impossible to resist, even if you resist, you will never succeed.

To the mortals of the Gamma level, the Zeta stage is such an existence.

"No kneeling..."

Lucite's knees instantly gave way and fell towards the ground.

boom!

He knelt on his knees, the armor on his body quickly disintegrated, his body shrank, his eyes were empty and lifeless, his pupils were dilated, and his eyes were dull.

"That's great, really."

Out of reason and instinct, Lucite completely gave up resistance.

"I really like this feeling, Lucit."

Zangyue raised her hand, pulled out another blank card as if by magic, and joked:

"You mortals, you think you can compete with the gods through hard work and sweat, but in the end you are shattered by reality, your faith collapses, and you fall into despair. No matter how many times you see it, I will never get tired of it."

"Well, game over, kid."

After that, he pointed directly at Lucit's forehead, a blue light lit up in his big hand, and pressed it.

Hobbes gritted his teeth, stood up instantly, and rushed towards the opponent!

"stop!"
