Chapter 18: With My Remaining Might, I Protect Your Peace!
[You turn around and find Fourteen standing behind you]
Wang Ran's heart skipped a beat.
Why was Fourteen here?
Shouldn't he be causing destruction on the surface at this time?
Wang Ran thought of a possibility.
Perhaps Fourteen was supposed to be here all along, and only went to the surface because the army was making too much noise.
Wang Ran suddenly understood something.
No wonder in the previous simulations, he and Lin Ying could stay in the basement until the tenth day. It turned out Fourteen had been staying underground all along...
["Oh, Wang Ran?"]
Seeing this line, Wang Ran's heart leapt.
In the previous two simulations,
This sentence was always the signal for the battle to begin.
As soon as Fourteen finished saying this, he would deliver a fatal blow to Wang Ran, leaving him no chance to even speak!
[Fourteen mocked you]
Wang Ran was stunned,
He thought he would see himself die.
"Is it because we're in his home base, so he's let his guard down?" Wang Ran pondered, "He's given me a chance to speak, so can I uncover his identity in this simulation?"
[You probed Fourteen]
["Bai Fan, how have you become so weak in just a few days?"]
Bai Fan was Wang Ran's prime suspect.
First, Bai Fan had inexplicably moved a large amount of supplies into his own dormitory, and secondly, Bai Fan had vanished without a trace the day before the apocalypse broke out!
There were big problems with Bai Fan!
But Fourteen's reaction was unexpected.
[Fourteen flew into a rage]
[He angrily asked you about Bai Fan's whereabouts, calling Bai Fan a shameful traitor, and vowed to tear Bai Fan to pieces]
Fourteen's words contained a huge amount of information,
Wang Ran's heart jolted,
He quickly realized that his guess was only partially correct. Bai Fan was indeed an apocalyptic apostle, but Bai Fan was not Fourteen.
Bai Fan had betrayed the apocalyptic apostles!
Fourteen wanted to kill Bai Fan!
"No wonder Bai Fan was in a bad mood tonight," Wang Ran suddenly understood, "He was going to betray the apocalyptic apostles. He must have been thinking about his future plans these past few days. How could he be in a good mood!"
Fourteen's words enlightened Wang Ran.
He suddenly understood why Bai Fan had stolen things. It was because Bai Fan was no longer on the same page as the apocalyptic apostles. Bai Fan was already preparing for his betrayal.
Bai Fan was afraid the organization would notice his change of heart, so he didn't dare to openly purchase supplies and resorted to stealing instead.
Bai Fan knew what the apocalyptic apostles were planning to do,
So he vanished with the stolen goods before the apocalypse descended.
After understanding the key points,
Wang Ran's eyes lit up.
He believed Bai Fan held a high position within the apocalyptic apostles,
Perhaps he was even one of the apostles!
Although he didn't know how Bai Fan had joined the apocalyptic apostles, how he had become a high-ranking member, or why he wanted to betray them...
But the enemy of an enemy is a friend.
Bai Fan could undoubtedly become his ally!
If Bai Fan worked with him from the inside, he might even have a chance to wipe out the high-ranking apocalyptic apostles and completely resolve the apocalyptic crisis!
At this moment, Wang Ran's heart was burning with excitement.
[Fourteen believes you are Bai Fan's accomplice]
[He launches an attack against you]
A line of dazzling text floated before Wang Ran's eyes.
[You triggered "Descent of the Divine"]
Fourteen was unreasonably powerful, instantly inflicting a fatal wound on Wang Ran in the simulation.
But Wang Ran didn't care,
Because he had already gained far more than he had imagined,
It was fine if this simulation ended now.
[Your mental attributes temporarily drop to zero]
[A powerful deity has descended]
[It allows you to know Its name]
[Hegemon]
Crimson flames swept through every word with the speed of a wildfire, instantly occupying Wang Ran's entire field of vision. From the raging sea of fire emanated an aura that looked down upon the world!
"Hegemon?"
This deity was different from the last one,
Not only was it not anonymous,
The simulator even specifically emphasized Its strength.
"So there's more than one deity!" Wang Ran muttered, "This one's special effects are much stronger than the last one, and It dares to reveal Its name. Very confident!"
He suddenly felt that perhaps they could win this time?
[You lost control of your body]
Almost simultaneously, a kill notification popped up!
[Hegemon slayed Fourteen]
"Holy shit!"
Wang Ran's eyes widened in shock.
Light-speed killing?!
Compared to this deity called Hegemon, the previous deity was absolute trash!
"Damn, that trash was gaslighting me, I almost thought it was my own problem!" Wang Ran's spirits lifted, "Look at Hegemon, coming in and killing Fourteen right away!"
"Five-star review!"
[The commotion attracted the attention of other apocalyptic apostles]
[Hegemon was surrounded]
Wang Ran felt a bit nervous.
Two fists are hard-pressed against four hands, even a hero fears large numbers. He didn't know if Hegemon could withstand the siege of the apocalyptic apostles.
[Hegemon effortlessly maneuvered among the numerous enemies]
Soon, a series of kill notifications popped up.
[Hegemon slayed apocalyptic apostle Eleven]
[Hegemon slayed apocalyptic apostle Seventeen]
[Hegemon slayed apocalyptic apostle Twelve]
[Hegemon slayed apocalyptic apostle Eighteen]
[Hegemon slayed apocalyptic apostle Fifteen]
[...]
Wang Ran watched in disbelief.
He could hardly believe his eyes. Hegemon actually went on a killing spree while surrounded by the apocalyptic apostles, slaying five people as easily as cutting melons and vegetables!
What kind of ridiculous battle record was this?
Please!
From now on, when a deity descends, let it be Hegemon!
Don't let that trash from last time come again!
["Descent of the Divine" duration has ended]
[Hegemon left, still eager for more]
[Before leaving]
[It left you with a message]
[With My Remaining Might, I Protect Your Peace!]
Wang Ran felt a bit nervous,
Not knowing what the battlefield looked like after Hegemon's rampage,
Whether this simulation could continue or not?
[You stand atop a pile of corpses, leaning on a blood-stained stone knife]
A strong killing intent hit him.
[Looking around]
[Several gilded masks are soaking in murky blood]
[Centered around you, countless bodies lie fallen, sprawled in all directions, their faces still bearing the terror of their final moments]
[Among the living, no one dares to meet your gaze]
[They have all been frightened out of their wits by your killing. Although they suspect you are at your limit, no one dares to approach you before you actually fall]
With My Remaining Might, I Protect Your Peace!
Wang Ran's breathing became heavy as he suddenly understood the meaning of Hegemon's parting words.
Although Hegemon had left,
These people were too afraid of Hegemon to act rashly,
He was still safe for the time being.
As expected of Hegemon!
But what should he do now?
He was completely relying on the fear of Hegemon to intimidate the surrounding apocalyptic apostles. Once he showed any sign of weakness, the situation would quickly turn against him.
[You picked up the gilded mask of Eleven at your feet]
Wang Ran's eyes widened in shock.
I'm not going to...
[You put on the gilded mask]
["The one who died was apocalyptic apostle Eleven, I am also apocalyptic apostle Eleven!"]
