Point of difference doom

Chapter 112 111: God-level teammate Zhang Haoyun

Zhou Baiyu did feel some changes in his lower body, but the changes were not obvious.

"Anti-corruption, anti-rules... Although Dr. A charges a high fee, he really didn't cheat me."

The rule that blinking will cause physical distortion still applies to him.

But the effect is very weak.

"It is said that even those who leave here will always be cursed by this rule."

"So...if I hadn't found the source of the curse in this building, I would have turned into the Giant Rose in a few days."

Zhou Baiyu began to walk upstairs.

After Zhang Haoyun disappeared, Zhou Baiyu thought about contacting Zhang Haoyun.

But unfortunately, most of the objects were destroyed at the moment the girl became corrupted.

Although Zhang Haoyun's clothes were intact, many things around the old building had been damaged.

He has no way to contact Zhang Haoyun now.

It is not known whether Zhang Haoyun is conscious or not.

But his intuition told him that maybe he would see Zhang Haoyun soon.

He raised his head and looked at the heights from the stairwell. The Sixth Sense players were obviously more powerful than usual when they were in the same team.

He would briefly explore each floor, but he could feel that the real source of infection was at the top.

Just out of caution, he patrolled every floor.

There was basically no conscious person in the whole building.

As long as the people who have entered this building, except for Zhou Baiyu... all of them are people who have become confused because of problems with the body's blood supply caused by the radish being too long.

They howled, but the python-like thing kept squirming. Everyone looked extremely terrifying.

Most of these people are innocent passers-by. There are a few who commit suicide, thinking that they can "strengthen their masculinity" after entering.

The result was... before they left the building, they had already begun to show deformed postures due to blinking too many times.

But currently, this curse seems... not very lethal.

In the process of Zhou Baiyu's continuous exploration, the sniper scope of Heguang Tongchen also followed Zhou Baiyu. He had been carefully telling Zhou Baiyu where the "big guy" existed.

Zhou Baiyu discovered that the president was simply a humanoid measuring instrument.

Although they are so far apart, they can instinctively calculate the precise distance.

It's like I have a radar.

However, as Zhou Baiyu shared his guess, both of them were convinced that none of these big guys seemed to be lethal.

Zhou Baiyu believed in his own intuition, and so did He Guang Tongchen, after all, he already knew Zhou Baiyu's characteristics.

Of course, he still remains vigilant and will pull the trigger at any time to clear the way for Zhou Baiyu when necessary.

But the content of the conversation between the two was relatively less formal than at the beginning.

"Speaking of which, President, I want to talk to you about something... I have always been concerned about it."

"Say it. But make sure it is allowed within the rules."

"Well, I am quite sensitive to the word "Walker". I remember one thing. Your second-level profession is Dark Walker. The second-level profession of Mountain Breaker is Duanhai, and the third-level profession is Jietian."

"But I learned something from Ling Hansu. There is also a second-level form of the Hidden One called the Dark Magician."

"Then the second level of Xing Meng Wu Chang also has the word "Walker", called Tyrant Walker... They are obviously the inheritors of the God of Power and Destruction, why is there a difference? Do you know this?"

Zhou Baiyu actually probably guessed something.

When the middleman Sister Lin told him about strangers, she was talking about - our god doesn't like things that remain the same, even professional principles will be different.

But this does not mean that there are no "hidden branches" in other professions.

I accepted Sister Lin's invitation and changed my profession to become an "alien". It is another branch of the alien.

The characteristics of this branch, or the means of activation - making friends with corrupt species and monsters.

Although all I have known all along are aliens, it seems that alienators should have taken this route...

But in fact, other alienated people may not be like this.

As expected, He Guang Tongchen quickly said:

"I can't tell you the reason for the activation because the middleman warned me."

Zhou Baiyu remembered that Sister Lin also said that other alienated people could not mention this reason to him.

However, He Guang Tongchen still tried his best to explain:

"But yes, my Dark Walker and the Overlord of Waking Dream are both hidden branches. Each has its own activation conditions."

Sure enough, the professions with the "Walker" logo are considered the second branch of each major profession?

Above those who break the mountain, there are those who break the sea and those who cut off the sky. But those who wake up and dream are those who take the path of the overlord and the crazy warrior.

"The existence of this profession itself is not a secret, but the activation conditions are the same as the existence of the advance world cannot be revealed to ordinary people. It is a secret that will be obliterated once it is revealed. And... at present, as far as I know,

The promotion system of the Walker lineage does not necessarily mean that it is stronger than the original version."

"Professionally, the styles are just different, but it's hard to say whether they are better or worse."

He Guang Tongchen does not feel that just because he has unlocked a hidden branch, he must be stronger than other hidden people.

Just like Ke Zhongye, although he has not unlocked the Overlord lineage and has taken the route of breaking the sea and cutting off the sky, Ke Zhongye's strength is stronger than Xingmeng Wuchang.

Although everyone thinks that Ke Zhongye has little brains, when it comes to destructive power, it is unparalleled.

Zhou Baiyu understood that everything the president could explain had already been explained.

I wanted to know more, but I was afraid that I would have to go to Sister Lin to spend money.

However, he always felt that the various types of "Walkers" seemed more like existences included under the general heading of "Forerunners". The naming of these "Walkers" might have some kind of secret in itself.

Of course, strangers seem to have different opinions.

According to Sister Lin, the Strangers seem to be an independent lineage of Forerunners.

He was suddenly very curious - what were the other alienated people like?

…

…

The exploration along the way ended soon.

Since this is the real world after all, although outrageous things have happened, the degree of outrageousness will not be too high.

Zhou Baiyu quickly arrived at the twenty-fifth floor.

On this floor, He Guang Tongchen tried to talk to Zhou Baiyu...

But Zhou Baiyu couldn't hear it.

"Zhou Baiyu, what's going on? I can't see anything on the hotline imaging on this floor. If you hear me, please answer. If you hear me, please answer!"

Zhou Baiyu did not respond.

Heguang Tongchen felt as if something was blocking the scanning and exploration of the equipment.

"Zhou Baiyu! Zhou Baiyu! Did you hear that? Damn it!"

He Guang Tongchen decisively called Xing Meng Wuchang, and after telling Xing Meng Wuchang the situation here, he was ready to start planning a rescue.

Duan Keng also discovered something in the old building. And he couldn't make it in a short while. The safest way is to make some use of the impermanent nature of waking dreams - not knowing that he is a guest in the dream.

But the current situation was special, and He Guang Tongchen decisively ran towards the building opposite.

…

…

Twenty-fifth floor of Kunlun Building.

On this floor, in a video room, there are many tables and a podium.

This is the level at which the mutual aid association is located.

The so-called mutual aid club is a group of people who share their own sufferings and use other people's experiences in suffering to help themselves get through the experience.

There are many similar mutual aid groups, the most common one is Alcoholics Anonymous.

Of course, there are people who quit drugs. But there are very few people who can quit drugs by their own will.

The twenty-fifth floor of Kunlun Building is a widowed mutual aid association.

To put it simply, people who have lost their wives and husbands gather together to tell each other about the hardships of living without their significant other.

Most of the people who participate in the mutual aid association are foreigners living in Linxiang City, including men and women.

There are wives whose husbands have died, and husbands who have died. There are also wives whose wives have died, and there are those who don’t know whether they are wives or husbands.

Of course, most of them are normal.

Dick is also normal, but at this moment, Dick is tied to a certain position by a bunch of strange "whips".

The size of one of his organs is probably the most normal except for Zhou Baiyu and another woman.

But in the building on the 25th floor, Zhou Baiyu just glanced at Dick, and after he was convinced that this man might be related to the source of the infection, he stopped looking at him again.

Zhou Baiyu's eyes were on the woman.

"Why are you here?"

"You will indeed come here."

The woman who can divert Zhou Baiyu's attention is none other than the "source" that Xingmeng Wuchang thinks -

Zhang Haoyun.

At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Zhou Baiyu's mind.

A guy who was suspected to be the source of the infection appeared at the scene of the crime. It looked like the mastermind behind the scenes was testing his own results.

And this blond man with blue eyes is like an "embryo".

Zhou Baiyu really hopes to meet Zhang Haoyun.

After she woke up, Zhou Baiyu had been worried.

He was really afraid that there would be a scene where it would be difficult to see each other again after seeing each other goodbye. Fortunately, at this moment, he unexpectedly met Zhang Haoyun.

Zhou Baiyu noticed one thing——

The president's voice disappeared.

After corruption came to the world, human technology and various equipment and props were slowly blocked by strange rules. The world seemed to have changed from a technological world to a magical world.

This is the memory of drug boy Jiang Xianwu.

In the advance world, human beings faced the advent of corruption and thought they could win by relying on their own civilization, but they never expected... what they were trying to push forward was directly denied by strange rules.

It was after that that Dr. A decided to use corruption to fight corruption and find new "science".

Bai Ye, who firmly believed that mankind could rise again, took his daughter and wife to the refuge, preparing to find scientific methods to defeat corruption.

Zhou Baiyu was wondering, could it be that Zhang Haoyun now has the ability to block rules?

This must be the case, otherwise how could the president have remained silent.

Obviously, both goals on this floor are more special than those on other floors.

"Zhang Haoyun, why are you here? Answer me."

Zhou Baiyu asked this question again.

"Because I know you will come here, I have been thinking, Zhou Baiyu, who are you and why do I have a crush on you for no reason."

Zhang Haoyun's expression was very calm. In fact, there was joy in seeing Zhou Baiyu in her eyebrows.

However, Zhou Baiyu was very worried that all the strange phenomena in Linxiang City were really related to Zhang Haoyun.

"I can't tell you my identity, but like you, I'm not an ordinary person."

Zhang Haoyun's mind suddenly recalled Zhou Baiyu's cry - now we are all monsters, and no one is nobler than the other.

Her eyebrows became gentler.

Zhou Baiyu noticed this change in expression and asked tentatively:

"You came here in advance to help me, knowing that I might be in danger?"

"Yes. I want to help you. I think this is the meaning of my existence."

This sentence touched Zhou Baiyu immediately.

He suddenly realized that ever since he met this woman, she had always dared to love and hate her without any hesitation.

The big devil that the forerunners feared, and the potential source of infection in Xingmeng Wuchang's eyes, had a completely different attitude towards Zhou Baiyu.

Zhou Baiyu's expression also softened.

But he still had to confirm the issues about waking and dreaming with his own words——

"I have a few questions to ask you. But, I really just want to confirm. I hope you will tell me the truth."

"OK."

Zhang Haoyun's whole body has relaxed.

The moment she saw Zhou Baiyu, she felt the man's seriousness. She also guessed some of the man's thoughts.

Fortunately, at this moment, Zhou Baiyu's mood eased a lot, and Zhang Haoyun also felt relaxed.

She has been thinking about how she should get along with Zhou Baiyu. After all...she can no longer be regarded as a human being at all. Does Zhou Baiyu really not mind when he looks at her?

But after meeting Zhou Baiyu, I found that he didn't have any fear, jealousy, or even any deliberate pity. It seemed that in Zhou Baiyu's eyes... he was extremely normal.

This surprised Zhang Haoyun, as if this person really existed just to save herself.

Zhang Haoyun didn't know that among Zhou Baiyu's connections, he had seen too many girls who were more curious than her, brothers who controlled their younger brothers, and succubus nobles.

His reaction when he saw the Corruption was really the same as when he saw an ordinary person.

Zhang Haoyun relaxed completely.

"A lot of strange things have happened in Linxiang City. Are these things... all related to you? Just answer me truthfully. Even if it has something to do with you, we can find a solution together."

Zhou Baiyu is telling the truth.

If Zhang Haoyun was really the source of the infection, he did not intend to kill Zhang Haoyun directly as Xing Meng Wuchang said.

The main reason is that Zhou Baiyu believes that the announcement of the end of defensive mode itself explains a lot of problems.

"What would you do with me if I did it?"

Zhang Haoyun looked at Zhou Baiyu with a smile.

But before Zhou Baiyu could speak, she said herself:

"Some of them are related to me. For example, I transformed one person. Of course, I may transform other people in the future."

Zhang Haoyun talked about her own experience——

"I want to live a normal life, Zhou Baiyu."

"After I woke up, I was very confused. I still remembered what I had done. If I wanted to live a normal life, then I had to atone for my sins."

"So I went to the old city, I wanted to see... what kind of damage I had done to that place."

"I met many people along the way. Some of them would look at me. When they saw those... things on my body, some of them were afraid, some found it interesting and novel, and some wanted to strike up a conversation with me."

"I want to... tear them apart."

"The gap between rich and poor, and the gap between status, no longer seems to have any meaning to me. These people are just like food in my eyes."

"But I don't want to be a monster. I want to live in this world like them. I can always hear your voice in my mind, which keeps me awake."

"After arriving in the old town, I saw several students bullying another student."

"That child... his eyes are very clean, and he always has a gentle smile when he is bullied. He is afraid of bugs."

"Those well-dressed students grabbed the bugs and prepared to stuff them into his mouth."

Zhou Baiyu understood.

This is what Xing Meng Wuchang was talking about - those teenagers in the hospital who were covered in bugs.

This is what happened.

"I showed some power and used my 'eyes' to summon a lot of insect voodoos. These insect voodoos, which were densely packed like sesame dots, were so numerous that they swarmed towards those people like a swarm of flies."

"They were scared to death. I felt very happy at that moment. Zhou Baiyu, I hate those people who bully others. You are right, there are real miracles in this world."

"The power I have now is a miracle. At least, it can turn me from being bullied to a bully."

"Those children are infested with bugs, and those bugs will be awakened by this emotion when they are most proud."

"Their final fate was to struggle for a few days before dying. But the kid who was bullied asked me to spare them."

"I like his clean eyes. Like you, his name is Zhen Shi. Now...like me, he has become a monster."

"This is what I have done. In a sense, I killed a person, I took away his human identity and made him a monster. But I don't regret it. I will meet other worthy people in the future.

I’m the one who does this.”

Zhou Baiyu did not comment on this matter.

Zhang Haoyun's thinking, or temperament, was more or less affected by corruption.

When dealing with corrupt people, he doesn't dare to ask for too much.

"Is this the only thing? Linxiang City is currently experiencing many strange things."

"It's just this one thing, but some people who have been to that old town before have also been affected."

"I can sense these people. Zhou Baiyu, I am in danger now. People who are close to me may be affected by something on me. I am no longer human, I am a monster."

Zhang Haoyun answered calmly. In front of Zhou Baiyu, she really had no need to pretend.

"But I won't just ruin other people's lives. I should be a very useful person to you. I want to help you. I hope... I can be useful to you."

"The mutation was not caused by me. During my coma, I seemed to have mastered some memories unconsciously. I'm not sure if these memories are useful to you, because they sound very nonsense."

"I can sense some strong sources of mutation, and I will protect this city for you."

"But this will also cause me... to appear frequently in certain places. For example, at this moment, you must suspect that these deformed men have something to do with me, right?"

Zhou Baiyu does not deny:

"I doubted it, but since you said it has nothing to do with you, I will believe it."

Zhang Haoyun's answer was better than he expected.

Zhang Haoyun also has many questions she wants to know.

She wanted to know...why Zhou Baiyu had the ability to redeem himself. Maybe both of them became monsters, but why did they become monsters?

However, she did not smell this problem, but said:

"What I can feel is that there are many sources of mutations in Linxiang City. I told that uncle..."

"There will be many strange crimes, strange rules, and strange sanctions in Linxiang City."

"They are also monsters. Only monsters can fight against monsters. Maybe we should form a team."

Good guys, it’s the squad again?

Zhou Baiyu had to say that today was really a day of crazy expansion of teammates.

If Ling Hansu is an R-level teammate, then Xing Meng Wuchang and He Guang Tongchen are SSR-level teammates, right?

What about Zhang Haoyun, what is this kind of thing?

"I do have a team. If you can join, it will definitely be of great help to us in suppressing all kinds of strange appearances."

"Okay, as long as you need me."

Zhang Haoyun readily agreed.

Zhou Baiyu also breathed a sigh of relief, the situation finally did not turn to the worst side.

Although Zhang Haoyun is dangerous and has the ability to transform others into corrupt species...but he seems to be able to control this danger.

As for the young man who was deprived of his "human" identity by Zhang Haoyun and became a corrupt species...

He would not comment for the time being. He could only find a way to set some kind of "rules for superhuman behavior in the ordinary world" with Zhang Haoyun after meeting the young man.

In a sense, a demon-level teammate like Zhang Haoyun is simply a plug-in in the original world.

"Finally, my big gamble was not in vain. I risked my life to inject the medicine and saved her."

Zhou Baiyu is quite satisfied with this development.

Now that Zhang Haoyun is no longer a problem, his attention has finally shifted to another place——

"What's going on with this ghost guy? Why is he here? Is he the source of the infection?"

Dick was indeed the source of the infection.

However, Zhou Baiyu always felt that those people downstairs seemed to be really sick, rather than being infected by corruption.

In his knowledge, there are only three types of existence: monsters, corrupt species, and forerunners.

Zhang Haoyun said:

"I don't know, but I did feel a strange aura coming from this person. It's very close to me... but it seems different."

"I have killed him. But the curse in this building does not seem to have ended."

Dick, who was trapped by many strips, indeed had no signs of life.

Zhou Baiyu had to say that the sense of security brought by such a strong teammate was too great.

But he touched his chin and fell into doubt:

"It stands to reason that as long as the source of mutation is killed, the corresponding regularization will be lifted."

"But why...the rule that blinking will cause changes in the body is still in effect?"

"Why would Zhang Haoyun say that the aura exuding from this person is very close to hers, but different from hers?"

Zhou Baiyu felt that this might be the key to the puzzle.

Just when Zhou Baiyu was confused, he suddenly received an invitation.

[You are being invited to the transit station by Lord A, the great god of survival and evolution. Do you accept the invitation? 】

This invitation made Zhou Baiyu suddenly confused. He almost thought that he was sending an invitation to the world.

Why would Dr. A invite himself at this time?

Could it be related to the source of this strange "Anaconda syndrome" in front of us?

He suddenly thought of something and said to Zhang Haoyun:

"I may leave for a while. My teammate just lost contact with me. I guess he will come to me soon... If you see him, don't do anything to him, and don't infect him."

"where are you going?"

"I disappeared for a short while. I still have a lot of things with me... I wonder if I can tell you, Zhang Haoyun, just wait for me here. You won't disappear suddenly again, will you?"

Zhou Baiyu had a vague feeling that the source of this "Monster Python Syndrome" might have something to do with it.

Dr. A must have discovered something to suddenly invite himself into the transfer station.

Zhang Haoyun said:

"I'm waiting for you. Just in time, I also want to meet your friends."

To be honest, Zhou Baiyu really wanted to show off his demon king-level friend in front of He Guang Tongchen.

But he ran out of time.

After agreeing to Dr. A's invitation, Zhou Baiyu quickly disappeared directly in front of Zhang Haoyun.

…

…

Transfer station No. 10.

Dr. A was still tinkering with his various strange experiments. After noticing Zhou Baiyu's arrival, he got straight to the point:

"It's a brand. You need to erase the brand on that man. In fact, it's very simple. It's because your horse didn't kill people cleanly enough."

"In my opinion, to kill someone, you have to make a person disappear completely, dissolve completely, and leave a body behind, which is very dangerous."

Zhou Baiyu was a little confused:

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Dr. A turned around and smiled mysteriously:

"My friend, do you know the advantage of the soul being able to constantly change bodies?"

"That is, I can go to other areas. I have touched the realm of the gods before, so you have to understand that when you encounter a problem that you don't understand, you may consider coming to the transit station and paying an advance value to let me do it.

Answer for you."

"Of course, this is the first service, it's free. Let me tell you how you want to lift the curse."

Dr. A’s expression gradually became serious:

"When facing these believers of the new gods, you cannot treat them as traditional corrupt species..."

"You must destroy the brand of faith on them, so that you can cut off the source of their divine power!"

Two simple sentences, but contain an amazing amount of information.

Zhou Baiyu frowned:

"New God?"

"Yes, congratulations, you have met a new species - this is a believer in the 'god of penis and reproduction'. A... alien corrupt species."

Followers of the New God, corrupt species?

At this moment, Zhou Baiyu seemed to understand something. The relationship between gods and corrupt species... suddenly became blurry.
