Point of difference doom

Despair will never dissipate, it just lies dormant when you meet someone who can bring hope.

From the Corruption Level, to the Deep Corruption Level, to the Disaster Level, and then to the Demon King Level, most corruption species need to go through a long evolution process.

But for the existence of some special qualifications, maybe... all it takes is one desperate enough day.

This day does not necessarily require suffering all the time, because for most people...people have a certain resilience.

The tenacity of life allows them to constantly adjust in the face of hardships. The more difficult it is, the more they want to endure it and see the moment when the hardships end and the rewards come.

But what I fear most is seeing hope and then having that hope dashed.

This hope, for Zhang Haoyun, is not actually that of Zhou Baiyu.

All the good things that may happen in life, all the luck that may be experienced, are her hopes.

The arrival of her father made Zhang Haoyun realize that she would never be able to escape such despair!

Once some valves are opened, it is difficult to close them again. Despair comes like a tide.

Zhang Haoyun's hair grew crazily, without any wind, like countless tentacles of a monster, and her nails were even longer than her fingers in an instant.

Demon King level.

Unless there are special circumstances, most corrupt species will undergo drastic physical changes once they reach the Demon King level.

Scarlet eyes are as beautiful as blooming poppies. Wherever they gaze, more poppies are constantly being born.

Scarlet instantly began to grow crazily like some kind of moss accelerated tens of thousands of times.

Scarlet eyes spread all over the building, and black tentacles wriggled like earthworms emerging from the wall.

It seemed that everything around him had become one with Zhang Haoyun.

Not long after, the entire building under the night was enveloped in the smell of corruption.

Those who had not yet fallen asleep suddenly felt an unprecedented surge of anger, as if they wanted to destroy everything around them!

Those who have fallen asleep have experienced an extremely twisted life in their dreams.

And the spread of this terror did not end there.

Zhang Haoyun seems to have higher potential... Her wildly growing hair suddenly wrapped around her body.

Those scarlet gazes were all blocked by black tentacle-like hair.

Zhang Haoyun was surrounded by hair, like a bug in a cocoon.

Not long after, surrounded by countless black tentacles... there seemed to be an extra black egg in the room.

A demon-level cocoon was born.

No one can predict what kind of monster will appear from the moment this cocoon of corruption breaks out.

Life is always unpredictable.

If Zhang Haoyun had met Zhou Baiyu earlier, just a few days earlier, or even if she had not encountered this encounter tonight, even if she had spent one more day with Zhou Baiyu... maybe it would have been a different mentality.

And as long as she has hope, she may be able to suppress those poisons deep in her soul, and they will never break out of their cocoon.

But there are no ifs in life.

All of Zhou Baiyu's plans were undoubtedly correct and fully prepared. But no plan could account for all variables.

Not just Zhou Baiyu, but all the plans of the entire Forerunners, whether they are investigating, preparing weapons, smoothing relationships, following up on secret visits... all the steps and preparations——

On this day, my corrupt father was completely disrupted.

…

…

The next day.

Linxiang City is in a state of shock.

Endless black fog shrouded the cheap rental area in the old city.

Looking from a distance, the black mist covering some houses in the old city looks like a huge black lotus flower waiting to bloom.

The black mist surges, and from time to time, you can hear some terrifying screams and roars coming from inside.

Countless people looked at the huge lotus-shaped black fog and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

Some people find it novel, but most find it terrifying.

In this era, nothing can stop the spread of the Internet.

Soon, people from all over the country saw the huge black lotus. The black lotus in the form of mist seemed to be spreading little by little, covering an increasingly larger area.

In the sky above Linxiang City, there were even helicopters hovering in the sky, but they did not dare to get close to the black fog area.

For the melon-eating masses, this is undoubtedly a topical feast.

Some were so excited that they screamed everywhere.

"It's so explosive. Have you seen that black lotus in the old town of Linxiang City? It's so shocking. This scene is so shocking. I looked through the telescope and found that there was a red light flashing inside. It was like hell.

!”

There is a rigorous analysis:

"With the current level of special effects, it is indeed not difficult to create such a scene, but the problem is that many people in Linxiang City say they have witnessed it with their own eyes. Is this true?"

There are also those who are not afraid of death.

"Family, it's 10:03 now! The scene has been blocked, but Brother Kai, I'm going all out today. As soon as the number of fans in the live broadcast room exceeds 100,000, I will live broadcast into the black fog zone! No kidding! Get gifts!"

Of course, there are some caveats:

"What I heard now is that no one who went in came out. Officials have started to compile a list of people who live inside, and have tried to contact them by phone, but to no avail. After approaching the black fog area, use a sound source amplifier

, you can hear roars, and...the sound of insects squirming."

More and more information is piling up, and combined with what happened before, outrageous advertisements appeared all over the world - "The version will be updated soon." Some people speculate that this is a version update.

Among these many statements, some are completely unreasonable, while others are relatively a little bit reliable.

But only the forerunners know the truth.

A few hours before the topic exploded, in the early morning, all the forerunners actually knew about it.

[All forerunners in the original world will be forcibly transferred to the transfer station in five minutes. 】

The wolf pipe was activated again, and Tian Xia Wu Er was always watching every move in Linxiang City.

About two hours after the change occurred in the low-rent area of ​​the old city, some of his connections in the police came into play.

And when Tian Xia Wu Er and Huan Liu Yan rushed to the scene... the realm had already been formed.

The two frowned. As experienced pioneers and having earned a lot of advance points, they naturally learned a lot of information. Both of them knew very well——

This area has become a demon-level area, and the level of corruption may have reached B+ level.

It is even moving towards A-level.

So soon after Tian Xia Wu Er entered the transfer station, he used the wolf pipe again to force everyone to the transfer station to prepare to discuss countermeasures.

Five minutes later, before the real-world topic of corruption areas exploded, many pioneers began to tremble in fear.

"To put it simply, based on my experience with President Huan Liuyan, the corrupt species that appeared in Linxiang City this time... is of the Demon King level."

"And the level of corruption in the region is probably B+ and moving towards A."

If there is no difference in the world, the forerunners will naturally believe it.

But the problem is that they don’t know how to deal with it. A pioneer asked:

"I remember that the most difficult advance test in the 1.01 version was only C-level corruption. The existence of the Demon King level simply appeared after the 1.20 version... What is going on? Why is this happening?"

This question undoubtedly stumped all the forerunners.

In the opinion of the forerunners, since this is version 1.0, the monsters must be weaker than those in version 1.01, right?

But why is version 1.0 starting from the Demon King level?

In the transfer station, many of the pioneers also asked the middleman, but the middleman kept silent about it.

The only one who knows the truth is Zhou Baiyu.
