Chapter 482 Death is another kind of rebirth

click-

Wu Wang's body kept twisting into positions that made one's bones ache just looking at them.

As the corruption of the Abyss God within the entire temple, and even the entire Demon Prison, was completely swallowed up by his vertical pupils, his every move instilled in people with inexplicable fear.

At this moment, neither Charlotte nor Oink could tell whether the creature in front of them was human or a monster.

When those words, mixed with babbling and human speech, were uttered, Charlotte was so startled that her eyes showed a look of confusion.

He had considered that this guy, under some special condition, had become a kind of consciousness carrier of [Death], which was why he was able to control the pollution.

In this way, there are only two possible outcomes for Wu Wang—either he will explode after reaching his limit, or he will become a second "Demon Prison," a walking contamination bomb container.

But to everyone's surprise, this guy actually started to regain his human sanity under these circumstances!
Terrified, Charlotte could only mutter, "Impossible...impossible...this is a dream...a dream..."

However, deep down he was certain.

He wouldn't even dare to dream about something like this!

Because she had once been a fan, Charlotte found everything before her eyes all the more absurd.

Even if one has already died and vanished, one can still assimilate to His mark in the most extreme way.

All Charlotte could do was still "borrow".

The scarlet liquid and even the red tentacles he manipulates are essentially his way of deceiving the surrounding pollution into believing that he is also part of the pollution by using his current state.

This is how Charlotte can activate her red tentacles.

In fact, he and these red tentacles are on the same level, not in a superior-subordinate relationship.

But Wu Wang's summoning that made the pollution choose only him, coupled with his ability to arbitrarily change the laws of matter and distort time, was a different story.

It is clear that he has completely become a prisoner of the mark and has become the superior of the contamination.

At that moment, what controlled his body was definitely the mark of "Death," not Wu Wang himself.

Charlotte dared not think about what it meant to wake up in this state.

How could His mark possibly be suppressed or even controlled by human will?!

"Mr. Ao..."

Wu Wang's voice was extremely hoarse.

Even from a distance, it was impossible to tell whether his words were human speech or unknown babbling.

Hearing the guy's shout, Oink stood up from the completely lifeless statue and arrived in front of it in a few leaps.

Looking at Wu Wang's bizarre appearance with his red vertical pupils, his expression was particularly complicated.

Unexpectedly, this guy actually managed to achieve the warden's lifelong pursuit with ease, and even made Charlotte's thousand-year-old infiltration and planning come to naught.

In what was originally described as a three-way standoff, but in reality he was the weakest, he turned the tide and won a true victory.

The weak invaders.

They defeated the powerful warden and Charlotte.

Amidst this absurdity, Oink could only admire him. Although he didn't understand the existence of "death," he could tell that the widow must have paid a price far more severe than he had anticipated.

This must be a decision more difficult than death.

“I said… I would show you… my freedom.” Wu Wang’s voice was weak: “Please continue to watch… watch my resolve.”

As he spoke, he looked down at the dense array of red vertical pupils covering his upper body.

They all turned to look at Wu Wang with mocking eyes.

At this moment, Wu Wang felt as if he had returned to the beginning of the newbie dungeon, witnessing the magnificent world of the vast sun collapsing under his gaze.

Of course, he was also well aware of the price that had to be paid for such an aesthetic of extreme destruction.

But that's exactly what he needs right now!

When a certain balance within his body was broken, Wu Wang's soul fell into utter stillness.

This is an irreversible end for any existence.

This is also what Charlotte refers to as the end.

However, this was not the case for Wu Wang. For him, death was never the end of everything, but the beginning of a new life.

At the very moment of his complete death.

Its red vertical pupils looked like chalk drawings on a blackboard that had been suddenly erased.

Before Charlotte and Oink could react, the marks of the Abyss God began to disappear from their foreheads, cheeks, hands, feet, and chests.

In the end, only the original mark on his wrist remained standing.

Its gaze shifted from mockery to intense curiosity, and it even kept turning its eyes to look at Wu Wang, who had his eyes closed.

I felt the dormant soul within this guy come back to life.

The mark of the Abyss God slowly closed.

It ate a little too much this time.

Since it came into Wu Wang's body, it has been eating quite well, but it has never been able to enjoy a meal as heartily as it did today.

It definitely needs some time to process.

He is watching you from the abyss.

His curiosity and joy were even greater.

He showed you kindness.

Wu Wang heard the voice of the Spirit Disaster Game System silently ringing in his ears, and he could vaguely sense a faint call coming from a place that seemed to be at the end of time.

Although he instinctively wanted to respond to this call.

But reason told Wu Wang that once he responded to this thing, he might never be able to return to his current world.

It's not death, but complete and utter disappearance from any definition.

So he chose to ignore it.

When Wu Wang opened his eyes again.

He was met with Charlotte's gaze, as if she were looking at a monster, and Oink's expectant and excited look.

"What...what kind of monster are you?" Charlotte's voice trembled slightly. "Are you the Venerable One's covetousness of Him? Or the divine messenger trying to reawaken the key to Him? Or perhaps an ancient attempt to destroy Him?"

He no longer regarded Wu Wang as a human being.

Because what this guy did was completely beyond what a human could do.

The only explanation is that Wu Wang was a special tool created by a Venerable One, a divine messenger, or someone from the past who harbored improper thoughts about "death".

Upon hearing Xia Luo's words, Wu Wang raised an eyebrow.

It seems this guy has different views on the Venerable One, the Divine Messenger, and the Old Ones.

It seems that Charlotte knows much more than she thought.

Wu Wang grinned and said:
"Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll mercifully tell you—I'm the Gundam pilot of the Abyss God account, the specially invited strategic partner of the Spirit Disaster game, the expert in retreating and a master of singing a different tune, the runner-up in the senior breakdancing group in the neighborhood, the running champion in the disabled group of the mental hospital, and a potential newcomer in the dark cuisine world."

"Don't worry, this temple is spacious enough to accommodate all these people."

"I am who I am, a unique spark."

"But I can be sure that I am definitely human, more real than Ding Zhenzhen, purer than Chunzhen. I even have Master Long's 3A certification, the only thing missing is a quarantine stamp on my body."

Having said that, Charlotte's expression froze, as she listened to the rapid-fire delivery.

He looked at Oink.

He casually brushed the pebbles and dust off his shoulders, picked up a large, plain-looking piece of cloth from the ground, and draped it over his completely naked body, which was covered with the mark of the Abyss God, like a trench coat.

At this moment, Wu Wang looked somewhat like a wandering knight-errant. He shrugged and said, "Mr. Ao, I can see from your past that your yearning for freedom has reached the point of belief."

"The years you've been trapped in this world have made your pursuit of freedom blind, to the point that you don't even know what kind of freedom you want to pursue; you're just moving forward for the sake of the word 'freedom.'"

Upon hearing this explanation...

Oink slowly planted the butcher's knife in his hand into the ground, his huge pig head lowered, and he said in a low voice, "Yes... I can't understand it."

"If no matter how powerful I become, I will always be bound by some force above my head, then the freedom I pursue is nothing more than escaping from one cage to another, even bigger cage. What is the point of all this?"

"To put it bluntly, if I were in the position of warden, facing that powerful force that I could study at will and that was right in front of me, I can't guarantee that I wouldn't eventually abandon all my current principles for freedom and walk the same path as him."

Oink is a very straightforward person.

He not only treats others this way, but he is also able to openly analyze himself.

The reason he didn't have such a strong possessive desire for the corruption of the Abyss God was because...

It was simply because when he came into this world, the Demon Prison already existed, and Chaos had abandoned this world for many years.

Therefore, when Chaos returned to this world and seized control, Oink could only deduce, by observing that the Demon Prison was still absorbing criminals from other worlds, that there was some kind of power here that was enough to break the barrier that the Venerable had placed on the world.

His feelings about the corruption of the Abyss God were not as direct as he had imagined.

The warden is different.

The warden was the one who truly witnessed firsthand how Chaos resolutely abandoned this world in the face of this power.

His research on the corruption of the Abyss God was defined from the very beginning as being above the level of gods.

However, what had just happened made Oink directly experience the terror of the Abyss God's corruption.

It is a power that can distort everything and ignore any law. It is like a magical flower full of poison and thorns, which always attracts those who observe it to come forward and smell its fragrance.

He couldn't guarantee that he could still firmly choose to give up under such temptation.

Or rather, there's nothing wrong with finding a way to gain greater power so that you won't be bound by the path of freedom!

This is also why Oinke is confused.

Charlotte, who once possessed this power, was now a corpse, and the warden who had tried to possess it also fell inside the idol.

Is He a demon or an angel?

I can't tell Oink apart.

Looking at the dejected Oink, Wu Wang grinned and said, "Actually, you didn't do much wrong. The only mistake you made was that you wanted absolute freedom."

"Unfortunately, the concept of absolute freedom does not exist in this world."

"Rules are actually a condition for the realization of freedom, just as a river can only flow within the constraints of dams. Freedom without rules will eventually become nothingness."

Wu Wang clenched his fist suddenly.

He pointed his tightly closed red vertical pupils at Oink, pointed at Charlotte, and then at the rubble of the statue, saying, "There were countless moments just now when I could have given up this creature body that they both considered ugly, and completely merged with the end, the power of the gods, whatever it may be."

“He is very powerful, but I still believe that is not the freedom I want. The price of freedom is to sacrifice everything I have protected until now, which I cannot accept.”

“Mr. Ao, freedom does require external conditions, that is, what you call the guarantee of power, but it depends even more on inner awakening and courage.”

"True freedom is not about breaking all the rules, but about being true to the will of your own soul."

Be true to the will of your own soul!

These words struck Oink like a heavy hammer blow to his skull.

For a moment, his eyes were somewhat dazed.

yes……

He was born a lowly pig-headed man, a slave and food at the very bottom of society in his original world.

At that time, the freedom I sought was to escape the slaughterhouse;
When the dark side of Paradise City issues a warrant for your arrest, when all dangers inevitably surge in.

At that time, the freedom he sought was to kill the archbishop who oppressed the entire city;
When Paradise City was burned to ashes by the flames he had left behind, he climbed the high walls built from the ruins and saw the first sunset of his life, as well as countless other "Paradise Cities." In the end, he fell before the endless enemy and was sent to the execution ground.

At that time, their only thought was that they no longer saw themselves as inferior slaves, but as vicious butchers.

Regardless of what they are called, from that moment on, I was an equal to them.

This was Oink's last thought of freedom before he broke through the barriers of the world.

From then on, he embarked on a path of escape with no final destination.

"So...I once possessed it..."

"But I had long forgotten about it."

Oink's voice was somewhat low.

It turns out that what I truly wanted to have, I had already possessed in the process of pursuing it.

Whether in the slaughterhouse or in the Burning Paradise City, I was always absolutely loyal and guided by the will of my soul.

Unlike now, where people simply and foolishly pursue power and then wander aimlessly between worlds.

"The Descendant... oh no, I should call you the Widow. You don't really need to explain all this to me anymore. Our original agreement was that after you demonstrated the meaning of freedom, I would stand up for you in front of the warden."

"It's pointless now."

Oink looked at the rubble of the statue in the distance, his expression unusually complicated.

He could no longer offer any help to the widow, but the man helped him break free from a demon that had long imprisoned his heart.

How can I ever repay such a debt of gratitude?
To this, Wu Wang simply shrugged and said, "Of course you have something you can give me, and I really need this thing right now!"

A hint of confusion flashed in Oink's eyes, and he quickly said, "What? If I really have it, then I definitely..."

However, he didn't finish his sentence.

Wu Wang then interrupted—

"friend."

"I just need you to be my friend, that's enough."

After saying that, Wu Wang extended a friendly handshake to Oink and said with a smile, "As a friend, let me offer you my humble help. I will help you break down the barriers of this world so that you can successfully leave this world."

Looking at Wu Wang's appearance.

Oink was immediately moved to tears.

He had traveled through countless worlds, but he had never encountered such a sincere and precious friendship.

So he firmly grasped it.

Congratulations on gaining the butcher's approval!

A series of system notifications rang in Wu Wang's ears. He didn't ponder their meaning for the time being, but instead turned his gaze back to the malfunctioning Xia Luo.

He twisted his neck and said:
"Of course, before that, I still have a lot of things to ask this former colleague."

"The corruption of the Abyss God, the attitudes of the Venerable Ones, the Divine Messengers, and the ancient beings towards Him, what exactly happened to [Chaos] in this world, and..."

Wu Wang's gaze sharpened.

"Also, what exactly is the connection between this guy and the [Disaster Cult]? I smell a familiar scent about him."

The vision of truth is evolving.

[Coming soon]

The moment their eyes met.

The system notification has appeared for the third time...
