I created the myth of the Great Old Ones.

Cleopatra saw that Plato had grown white downy hair, and his eyes were closed, as if he were asleep.

"It seems you couldn't stop this disaster either."

Cleopatra sighed, went to Plato's side, and pushed the old man forward, exposing the back of his neck.

Then, Cleopatra stretched out her hand, and a strangely shaped dagger appeared in her palm. With a swift and clean motion, she sliced ​​open the back of Plato's head.

There was no blood, no painful cries; everything was extremely quiet, like an afternoon nap.

Cleopatra saw that where the brain should have been, there was no brain matter.

There was only one wriggling worm, constantly twitching.

Chapter 887 The Secret of the Sage

Cleopatra was not surprised to see the insect.

“You’re a pathetic wretch now. You think I can’t do anything to you? But unfortunately, with His help, I can replace you anytime I want.”

She said, reaching out and picking up the insect.

The insect did not seem to have regained consciousness and continued to twitch.

This insect is entirely white, with a slippery surface like fatty meat. It has countless pairs of black legs, and in the position of its head is a series of overlapping mouthparts containing countless fine teeth.

The insect has no eyes, which gives it an eerie feel.

Cleopatra knew that this was Plato.

Once the insect leaves the body, the body rapidly ages and decays, turning into dust in the blink of an eye.

This is the secret of the Sage of the Wasteland.

So-called saints are nothing more than special insects created from something else.

These insects, initially only the size of a mung bean, can be implanted into the human body through certain special methods.

As the insect develops, it feeds on the human brain and eventually devours the entire brain.

In this process, the human will will merge with the insect and eventually become the insect.

At this point, the symptoms of crystallization will disappear, and they will gain extraordinary power, surpassing those who have crystals in their bodies.

This is easy to understand. In foreign lands, pollution is power, and crystallization disease itself is a form of pollution. To combat the side effects of crystallization disease, one must endure even more severe pollution.

Saints are inherently far more corrupt than ordinary people.

These worms can live for decades or even centuries. At the end of their lives, they lay eggs and then die. After the eggs are implanted into a new person, they develop and devour the brain, starting a new cycle.

Cleopatra did not intend to escape, but she would not simply sit and wait to die.

Now, only by obtaining Plato's power can Cleopatra control Utopia.

Moreover, according to the information she received from Mad Poison, there are even more alien worlds beyond the wasteland.

This rain must have been caused by those chosen ones.

Cleopatra did not revere those "gods"; even before she became a saint, she only believed in herself.

However, all of this changed at some point, and Cleopatra was no longer the same.

This may be her only chance in her life.

She brought the insect to her face.

Open your mouth.

The twitching insect seemed oblivious to anything amiss, as if it were still deep in a dream.

The next moment, Cleopatra took a bite.

The milky-white worm's outer skin was torn, and its juices flowed out, seeping from the corner of her mouth.

The insect struggled violently for a moment, but Cleopatra did not stop eating.

Her expression was ferocious, her eyes rolled back, and she trembled. At that moment, two insects were merging inside her body.

Soon, Cleopatra bit into a thin, rope-like object within that white, tender flesh.

At the end of that thing was attached a small black ball that looked like a pebble.

The black ball trembled slightly, looking as tempting as jelly.

Cleopatra's eyes flickered slightly; she knew these were nearly mature insect eggs.

Inside the black sphere, some kind of creature seemed to be swimming, displaying a fearful posture.

Cleopatra stuck out her tongue and swallowed the insect egg.

She swallowed it whole without chewing.

Almost simultaneously.

In the spiritual world of Uruk.

This place has been reduced to scorched earth.

Every inch of land looked as if it had been plowed dozens of times, with no intact parts left.

As for the giant octopus monster that was originally hanging high in the sky, it has been reduced to dust.

Under the absolute saturation of firepower, no monsters or demons can cause trouble.

Even after the octopus completely disappeared and the entire mental world was on the verge of collapse, Lu Ban continued his barrage of attacks for a while longer.

In his words, this was to nip the weeds in the bud.

Plato felt a jolt and gazed at the sky.

Suddenly, a piercing pain swept over him.

The pain quickly brought some thoughts to his mind, and a feeling of regret rose to his eyes more quickly than fear.

There was almost no time for him to leave his last words. Plato's figure quickly twisted and dissipated, falling into the void along with Uruk's will.

Lu Ban turned around but didn't see Plato, which he found a little strange.

After searching, it was confirmed that Plato had indeed disappeared from Uruk's mental space.

He thought for a moment and realized that something might have gone wrong on Plato's side.

The old man was already nearing the end of his life, with only a short time left to live. Now, after all this turmoil in the octopus-man's mental world, he's most likely going to die.

I just don't know if it's too late.

Lu Ban immediately left Uruk's mental world and returned to reality.

He saw that the once hard eggshell had broken, and the octopus-man inside had turned into a pool of semi-solid pus. Although it was still alive, its days were numbered.

This is a manifestation of alienation resulting from a severe blow to the mind. It's just that Lu Ban crushed its rationality too much, so it turned into this form.

Lu Ban didn't have time to clean up the battlefield. He opened his mouth and swallowed the octopus man along with its eggshell, merging it with himself.

The rain was pouring down, and the edge of the rain curtain was almost reaching Utopia.

Lu Ban materialized a silver revolver in his hand [Last Words], fired three shots at himself, and flew at high speed toward Utopia.

Inside the city.

Hearing the wails and cries outside the city, Ke Cheng trembled all over, enveloped by an unimaginable fear.

He had never been so afraid of a rain.

What if I were swept away by this rain...?

Many unpleasant thoughts welled up in Ke Cheng's mind as he looked at the beautiful girl beside him.

"You'll protect me, right?"

He asked.

But Leopard didn't answer; he just stared at the heavy rain outside the window.

"Something's not right with this rain."

The beautiful girl murmured to herself in a soft voice.

"what happened?"

Ke Cheng felt a wave of panic; it was the first time he had ever seen this girl with such an uncertain expression.

"No, it's just..."

Before Leopard could finish speaking, a figure gradually emerged from the shadows inside the house.

The moment he realized what had happened, Leopard slapped Ke Cheng hard.

Before Ke Cheng knew what was happening, he was swept away by a vortex. All around him, a colorful blackness enveloped him. In the midst of the dizzying spin, Ke Cheng returned to the real world.

Leopard looked at the person who had appeared in the shadows.

He was a dark-skinned, tall, and thin man in a black suit, staring at Leopard with a sly smile.

"Hello."

The man greeted the leopard.

Chapter 888 The Way Out of Life

Leopard did not respond to the other party's words. She knew very well that even though they were both clones, the other party's status was much higher than hers.

The Dark One is, after all, the true incarnation of the original, while I am merely an avatar of the Swollen Woman in another realm. In terms of seniority, I should call the other party Grandpa.

She didn't know why he was here, but of course, even if he was here, it wouldn't be a problem.

These incarnations of theirs are all about doing whatever they want.

Go wherever you want, do whatever you want.

Humans live in the world, and their behavior generally follows an internal logic, regardless of whether this logic is reasonable or acceptable to the public, but they don't need to.

However, the [Swelling Woman] and the [Dark Man] clearly don't get along.

One is always thinking about betraying the original, while the other prefers to make the world more exciting.
