Foundation: I am recruiting crickets from all dimensions to fight

Then I suddenly remembered its first sentence, "Thank you for everything you do."

He only felt the pain in his chest become more intense, and a fear he had never felt before arose in his heart, the degree of which was greater than all the previous fears combined. Cold sweat appeared densely on his forehead.

The audience in the chat group were in turmoil.

Even the slowest person realized that—

'Destroy the heart' doesn't seem to destroy the monster...

Three-body universe.

Earth.

Luo Ji seemed to have figured something out, and his face suddenly turned pale.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be...

He looked at the light screen, pondered for a long time, and then let out a breath.

He gave a bitter smile: "What if the heart is not a breeding ground for monsters, but... a cage?"

It seems to confirm Luo Ji's guess.

In the light curtain,

The strange face smiled at D-14134 again:

"Although you call us monsters, demons, and shadow creatures, in fact, our current appearance is what real human beings should be like. It can also be understood by the word 'evolution'."

"We now have greater abilities and potential, and what we had before was just a cumbersome shell."

The figure's voice was calm, but with a hint of disdain that D-14134 was very familiar with.

"You think this is ugly, that's because you are still just in that shell of yours."

D-14134 stared at it, trying to appear dismissive of what it was saying.

But thinking that it was pitch black here and the other party might not be able to see him, he instead made a few sarcastic noises.

The black shadow didn't care about this, but continued:

"This is the posture we should have, but for some reason, the power it represents has been locked deep inside our bodies, or more precisely, in our hearts."

Hearing the word 'heart' again,

D-14134 looks increasingly uneasy.

"It is like a cage that holds power. As long as the heart is beating, the cage is unbreakable; but it cannot die or be destroyed, because the power inside is also attached to it. Once the cage is broken, the power will die with it."

Hear this,

The audience was somewhat puzzled.

Hearts beat, monsters are imprisoned.

If the heart is destroyed, the monster will die.

Why does it say,

Thank you D-14134 for everything?

"Because the great Lord has given us the 'key.'"

Chapter 32: The end of a poor little guy who thought he could be a hero?

When the shadow mentioned the word 'Lord',

There was an indescribable fanaticism and piety on the strange face.

Chen Long Adventures Universe.

District Thirteen.

"host?"

Sheriff Black was a little confused: "Could it be that a certain god is involved?"

Uncle Long, who was standing by, suddenly had those strange totems and murals he had seen before flash through his mind.

When he tried to connect it with what he had just said, he was suddenly shocked:

"What bad luck! It seems we have overlooked one thing from the very beginning!"

Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, he slowly uttered two words:

"Cult!"

"Cult?" Xiaoyu jumped up in surprise:

"You mean the cult members and cult activities that were first discovered in the farmhouse mentioned in the original files?"

After this was mentioned, others also reacted.

"If that's the case, then the 'Lord' this guy mentioned is not a..."

"Evil God?"

Upon hearing this word, the agents from District 13 all looked horrified.

········

"Let the power break free without harming itself in the process. When the heart loses the energy supplied by the body but has not yet completely died, we can use the 'key' to unlock the cage and release this power."

"And the Lord also needs us. When more and more people 'evolve', the Lord's will will come closer and merge with us, helping us reach a new height."

At this point, its tone was pious and seemed a little proud:

"Of course, it's easy to say, but it's a lot more troublesome to actually do it. The preparations for the ceremony alone are very troublesome...but in addition to that, some other 'assistance' is also needed."

Its words seemed to have a meaningful meaning.

D-14134 was stunned for a moment.

Then he trembled more and more violently, and finally he couldn't help it anymore and retorted:

"Since those monsters have already appeared, then according to what you said, the heart has lost its function as a 'cage'. After all, destroying them will at least not have any adverse effects!"

This is also what the vast majority of viewers think.

Unexpectedly, the shadow smiled at him again.

This time the smile was particularly obvious and exaggerated, and it looked extremely weird combined with its "face".

Seeing this face, the little hope in the hearts of the audience and D-14134 gradually disappeared, and their hearts sank completely.

"Even if you have the 'key' it's not enough," the shadow's voice sounded again.

“The ‘key’ does release power, but while the heart is fragile, the restraints are quite strong, and the connection is unusually tight.

Even though the power is released, some of it still remains. As you can see, it can be easily solved by a silver bullet and prayer. So it must be completely destroyed. But we,"

The shadow paused.

"Perhaps we have this power, or perhaps it is a side effect of the 'key'. We are unable to cause damage to it, so we can only rely on other forces, that is, you outsiders."

It lowered its head and said in a slightly smug tone,

"Don't you realize we've 'helped' you?"

Hearing this sentence,

The audience in the chat group was stunned.

And they finally understood,

Where did that vague sense of disharmony that everyone had felt before come from?

"Fuck! I was wondering how D-14134, an ordinary person, could do this so easily!"

"Yes, although he did his best, he was facing a demon that even the operators couldn't solve..."

"Not only that, but even the number of demons he encountered was limited."

"So, all of this was part of this guy's plan?"

In the screen,

D-14134's reaction was similar to that of the audience.

The inner space disappeared, replaced by a strong feeling of powerlessness.

He understands a lot now.

Why did those monsters automatically disperse to facilitate him?

Why doesn't he attract other monsters every time he destroys a "stronghold"?

I also understood why I had been feeling so uncomfortable before:

Everything is easier than I thought. How can hell end so easily?

"It's quite troublesome to have to wait for others to do this. The flow of time here is different from that outside. It usually takes several months or even years to wait for an outsider."

The shadow ignored D-14134's condition and continued,

"In order not to arouse suspicion from outsiders, we try to adjust our thinking ability to the level of being almost the same as wild animals, and act only on instinct."

"And when you start trying to destroy the heart, our remaining sanity will automatically take certain measures to reduce the 'difficulty' to cooperate with your actions. This is the whole truth."

With each sentence it spoke, some of the color drained from D-14134's face.

Seeing this, the black shadow paused for a moment, and even said in a comforting tone:

"But even in this situation it is still very difficult. I have to say that you are quite capable. Otherwise, you would have to choose two other difficult guys, which would have been a lot more troublesome."

This sentence completely made D-14134 despair.

The shadow not only took advantage of his determination,

Taking advantage of his courage,

Even took advantage of his weakness...

He finally realized:

He was the one who was actually terminated.

A pathetic little guy who thought he could be a hero.

this moment,

The audiences in all the worlds are the same as D-14134.

They are all losers.

········

Three-body universe.

Earth.

Seeing D-14134 collapse to the ground in despair as if he had lost all his strength,

Luo Ji seemed to see his former self.

Faced with the powerful Trisolarans whose technological level crushed the Earth, didn't he feel despair?

"It's such a bitter feeling to watch everything fall into the abyss but be powerless to save it."

He looked at D-14134 in the light curtain.

I was thinking,

It ended like this, maybe it was a relief for him?

but···

Why do I still feel unwilling?

Obviously, it has been achieved to this extent!

In the light curtain,

Seeing D-14134's disheartened state, the shadow smiled again.

It took a few steps back and made a few strange whistles, as if issuing some kind of order. The whole building began to tremble and groan, and the surrounding monsters began to move towards it...
