Voice of God

The moment Mo Ling heard Li Luo speak, he thought she had been possessed by something evil.

But Li Luo quickly added, "It's circling in my mind, constantly telling me one thing—to change."

Li Luo quickly took out her electronic screen and wrote down what she had experienced.

To change?

What did that mean?

Mo Ling was completely baffled.

He quickly used the electronic screen to ask Li Luo, "What is the Voice of God? What does 'to change' mean?"

Li Luo's expression also looked a bit panicked. She immediately found some information and placed it in front of Mo Ling: "This is a Relic Phenomenon, an unknown Relic Phenomenon, very famous during the Great Cataclysm."

Mo Ling looked at the record, his mood becoming increasingly heavy.

The Voice of God, this was a strange sound-type Relic Phenomenon of unknown origin, but its first appearance caused many people to lose their lives.

Its first appearance was in the West Bank. At that time, it was the period of the Great Cataclysm, and all sorts of strange forces and divine things appeared every day.

The Voice of God was particularly special. It had no warning and suddenly appeared in the minds of everyone in the area in the early morning of a certain day.

Whether they were awake or asleep, this voice directly intruded into the deep parts of their minds.

The Voice of God was saying one sentence: "Let there be light."

This was a strange thought-voice, not any known language, but everyone could understand it.

Even the deaf could hear it.

Due to regional beliefs, many people thought it was the Gods manifesting, and the people in the entire area who could hear the Voice of God fell into a frenzy.

But the frenzy did not last long; disaster arrived.

Countless people and animals disappeared into the Darkness.

At this point, the people who had not disappeared discovered that only by staying under a light source would they not vanish.

That strange voice was not the manifestation of any God.

It was a "notification," or rather, a "command."

If someone did not stay under a light source, the Voice of God would relentlessly torment them, echoing in their mind until the person suddenly disappeared.

Moreover, the brightness of the light source could not be too low, roughly equal to the brightness of an incandescent bulb. If the brightness was too low, the voice would also sound in their mind.

The missing people caused panic, and how to escape the "judgment" of the Gods began to spread in the media.

The surviving people quickly began to save themselves. The entire area was brightly lit. Fortunately, as long as they escaped the affected area, the Voice of God would disappear from their minds.

But most people did not leave. They did not expect that what happened next would be even more terrifying.

In the early morning of the second day, the Voice of God disappeared.

Just as people thought everything was over, the voice began a new round of announcements.

"You must breathe."

When Mo Ling saw this, he was immediately confused. What was this for?

Could it be that there were people who didn't know how to breathe?

But Mo Ling suddenly realized something was wrong, because when he saw the words "You must breathe," he subconsciously held his breath.

A chill ran down Mo Ling's spine, and he quickly looked at the record.

As expected, the "punishment" on this day was even more severe. As long as one held their breath, they would instantly disappear.

There was no reaction time given.

On this day, the entire area was deathly silent. Everyone was concentrating on maintaining their breathing, and any behavior that interrupted their concentration would cause people to disappear.

And Mo Ling instantly thought of the most fatal problem—

No one could breathe while speaking!

Those affected by the Voice of God, after the people around them disappeared, also noticed this. Everyone was maintaining their breathing under high pressure, not daring to do anything.

At dawn on the third day, the Voice of God entered people's minds again.

It said: "There must be water."

By this time, people no longer dared to disobey God's will. They quickly found the nearest water source and frantically poured water into their mouths.

But just then, the tap water stopped.

The punishment on the third day did not come quickly, so everyone frantically searched for nearby water sources.

People near rivers were fine, but those in the city, without tap water, could only rush into supermarkets to buy various bottled waters.

Soon the supermarkets were crowded with people, and some anxious people rushed directly to the shelves and started snatching things.

They had to drink water, keep drinking water, and not stop!

Small shops selling drinks, tree sap, small pools, sewage ditches...

After drinking all the water at home, they would go elsewhere to snatch it. If they couldn't snatch it, there was another way—

Blood.

Other people's blood.

On this day, people not only had to bear the urging of the Voice of God but also be wary of their fellow humans who were eyeing them like tigers.

Until dawn on the fourth day, with a muffled thunderclap in the sky, the Voice of God disappeared, and a late-coming heavy rain arrived in the city.

The scattered raindrops washed away the mess in the city. People subconsciously raised their heads and used their mouths to catch this once precious water source.

Fourth day.

"You must move."

People wandered through the city like walking dead, following the stars of the night.

After several days of torment, the people who remained were all extremely obedient to the Voice of God.

The few remaining humans did not think of taking the opportunity to leave this area, but simply kept moving, following the voice in their minds.

Moving steadfastly.

They now had only one thing in their minds: obey the instructions. Other than that, they had no mind to think about anything else.

Seeing this, Mo Ling's heart was also filled with sorrow.

If he himself experienced such a thing, it seemed there was nothing he could do but go with the flow.

Mo Ling continued to read.

By the fifth day.

"You must hide."

On this day, some huge black shadows whose bodies could not be clearly seen began to appear everywhere in the area. They would brutally tear apart all the humans they saw.

Their appearance was completely random, and whether they could find people hiding depended entirely on luck.

These black shadows hovered and wandered everywhere, and humans had no way to deal with them except to hide.

People outside the area could also see these creatures and even tried to use weapons to attack them from a distance, but it was completely ineffective.

Only by hiding could they preserve their lives.

The people in the area had no other thoughts, numbly following God's instructions.

Hiding in wardrobes, under beds, in attics...

The smaller and more hidden the space, the less likely they were to be discovered by the black shadows.

The surviving people kept hiding until dawn on the sixth day, when all the black shadows disappeared.

They numbly waited for God's next voice.

But when the voice of this day reached their minds, they subconsciously looked at their relatives beside them.

Sixth day.

"Be careful of humans."

These survivors who heard the voice disappeared from the world the moment they made eye contact with their companions.

On the sixth day, as long as you saw a human, you would die.

Those who had formed groups to resist the crisis all evaporated after hearing the voice, because they all saw the people beside them.

Not only that, if someone saw themselves in a mirror, or glimpsed their reflection in anything reflective, they would also disappear.

They themselves were also human.

Fortunately, because of the voice from the previous day, most people only needed to stay in their hiding places for one more day to survive the sixth day.

This day was not difficult.

But at dawn on the seventh day, when the Voice of God reached everyone's minds.

Despair descended.
