Whispers arose, sensing the chaos brought about by the Forbidden Door.
The resulting power gradually increases.
Li Chen's expression grew increasingly calm, as the lingering memories that had been swirling in his mind played back incessantly like a revolving lantern.
The price he paid for using the Forbidden technique was his memory.
There's no point in trying to salvage the situation now.
Since it's gone, it's gone; everything has value.
Boom!
Suddenly, a huge explosion rang out, pulling Li Chen back to reality.
Flames roared up on the majestic and magnificent gate wall, shooting into the sky, as figures in black robes raced against gravity on the wall.
With each step taken, an explosion followed. Clearly, the Evil Cult were no longer able to sit still. Sinful City was at its weakest point, the Seven Sins were falling apart, and the Enforcers still needed to control the rioting criminals.
The Pass Master has not shown up yet.
For a time, no one posed a threat to them, so they made their move.
In an instant, blood-red arrays lit up all over the walls, creating a spectacular sight.
Zaiyin smiled as he watched the Evil Cult waiting for an order. He had never had much affection for Evil Cults, after all, they were like monsters lurking in the darkness to Evil Cult.
Now they're all the same kind of people.
His faction is even more terrifying than Evil Cult.
Zero glanced coldly at the humans who had destroyed the barrier, a hint of doubt seemingly flashing in his eyes.
He simply couldn't understand humans.
With such a good environment to live in, why would they engage in internal strife?
Because his memories are fused with those from his time as Eerie Monsters, many conceptual differences arise. As a result, he sometimes thinks about problems from Eerie Monsters's perspective and sometimes from a human perspective. However, the differences between the two are so great that Zero often feels confused and repulsed.
Do you even feel that there's a difference between Eerie Monsters and humans?
This world is inherently a dog-eat-dog world.
The Eerie Monsters eat humans because they see them as food, but humans possess intelligence, emotions, and strength, so they choose to break free.
But if we think about it from another perspective, isn't how humans treat other animals similar to how Eerie Monsters treat humans?
Therefore, it's normal for him to experience CPU short circuits within the scope of zero thinking, because he doesn't understand human emotions and wisdom.
They only know that might makes right.
As for Li Chen, he has almost no goodwill towards Evil Cults now, and now is not the time to deal with Evil Cult. After all, Evil Cults are not like the Seven Sins. The Seven Sins are all independent and can be defeated one by one.
But Evil Cults are different. From our previous interactions, they have an extremely unified belief system, and powerful figures emerge one after another. Moreover Forbidden Door, after absorbing such a large amount of Forbidden Substances and giving birth to Eerie Monsters, still needs time to digest them.
Haste makes waste; let's see what these Evil Cults are really up to.
With the barrier broken, Li Chen naturally had no fear.
They were even extremely curious about the world outside the wall.
Previously, he could only observe from afar because he lacked the strength and opportunity. But now that he has mastered the Forbidden, he is destined to have more and more connections with those outside the walls.
Li Chen held up the inkstone, his gaze growing increasingly profound. He gently grasped a falling snowflake, which slowly melted into a drop of water in his palm. He murmured, "The God-Slaying Cult... It seems a new vortex is about to begin. Who will be my opponent this time?"
"Is it a god, or a human..."
A few clear footsteps echoed as they gradually faded into the distance.
The heavy snow left only corpses and congealed blood on the ground, and everything around them had been destroyed.
Whether it's people or things, everything has returned to its origin.
In the laboratory on the other side.
Qin Jiao looked at the report in her hand.
Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the door, and a male executive rushed in.
Qin Jiao frowned, somewhat displeased, and asked, "What's going on?"
Isn't the outside world calm now?
The officer said helplessly, "Sir, Evil Cult has invaded... All current officers have been dispatched to the fortified walls to defend against the Evil Cult. Could you please inform the Pass Master lord to descend from the fortress?"
"Otherwise, the wall is very likely to fall!"
Qin Jiao sat in her office chair with her legs crossed, not particularly concerned about the Evil Cult's intrusion.
She had naturally received news of the Seven Sins' disintegration, which was now a major concern for her. Her current task was to restore the City of Sin to the way she wanted it to be.
In fact, the executives suffered no losses in this war; it was entirely an internal power struggle within the Seven Sins. They even simply went along with it by shutting down the Heavenly Eye System.
The emergence of Evil Cults is entirely accidental, but they certainly need to be addressed.
Qin Jiao pondered for a few seconds, then said, "All officers equipped with the Chijie Armor should guard the exits of Sinful City to prevent the criminals from escaping."
"As for the Evil Cult, dispatch Special Squad 001 to carry out the arrest; killing is permitted."
"If the resistance is fierce, the Heavenly Eye Sanctions may be implemented."
The executive officer was overjoyed, gave a military salute, and left immediately.
Sinful City, the prison for criminals, is not so easily destroyed. Although the Seven Sins do hold most of the power, there is another force that is on par with them, and it is an integrated official force.
That was Qin Jiao's executive officer.
The Seven Sins may dislike each other, but the Enforcers don't. If even they weren't united, Sinful City would have long since become a haven for criminals. The shield may be a shield, but it can also be used to retaliate.
Qin Jiao smiled, quite satisfied with the outcome. The Seven Sins forces were now severely weakened, so she would reap the greatest benefits.
At least she no longer needs to worry about the Seven Sins' influence spreading over into her open domain. Moreover, she can now indirectly begin to gradually integrate the Seven Sins into her own power base. Wouldn't it be better for her to control the Seven Sins in the future than for those in Authority Holder to do so?
The emergence of this Evil Cult did indeed make her feel a sense of crisis, because it meant that Li Chen's identity had probably been exposed. She had known before that Li Chen was a ticking time bomb, but she didn't expect the fuse to be lit so quickly.
Now it's her turn to face it.
One wrong step and you'll be shattered to pieces, your body and soul utterly destroyed.
But having already come this far, and Qin Jiao given up so much, what is there to fear?
The sound of the sliding cabinet rang out.
Qin Jiao pressed a button on her desk, and the entire office began to darken.
A series of dark purple lights began to appear on the surrounding walls, and a door slowly opened, from which wisps of white mist drifted out, creating a scene resembling a fairyland.
However, Qin Jiao simply strode inside with her long legs.
It contains many human specimens.
It was clearly a human laboratory.
At the end of the table was a red round table with neatly arranged syringes, most of which were already empty.
Qin Jiao skillfully picked up the needle, flicked the silver needle that emitted a cold glint, narrowed her eyes, and inserted it directly into her neck.
Red veins bulged rapidly on his neck.
The intense pain caused Qin Jiao to brace herself on the round table and gasp for breath.
After a while, Qin Jiao's complexion returned to normal. Looking at the remaining syringe, she murmured, "As expected, S-level ability genes accelerate cell absorption."
"It seems my experimental results are correct."
