302: Chapter 301 You Point a Direction, I'll Go Kill Someone
[Your spirituality value +50]
[Current spirituality value: 4230]
After slaying that Night Watcher, Lin Jie slid down from the wall, panting heavily. "I knew it, you would definitely be fine..."
[Talent: ???]
Chu Xuan used the Eye of Insight on Lin Jie once more; this time it was normal—he couldn't probe him.
However, because of this, Chu Xuan became even more curious.
Between the two of them, regardless of Rank, Mental Energy, or the max-level Eye of Insight, it shouldn't have been impossible to probe him.
"Lin Jie, tell me, what is your Talent?" Chu Xuan used the Heart Bewitchment ability; his pupils grew darker, and his voice became steady as if imbued with magic.
Lin Jie was slightly stunned, then said with an urgent expression, "It's Heavenly Secret, of course! Big Brother Chu Xuan, do you not believe me?"
"Why weren't you able to go in with me just now?" Chu Xuan remembered that he had been holding the other's shoulder at the time, but it turned out the other hadn't entered at all.
Lin Jie looked somewhat dazed, then frowned. "I'm not too sure myself... It's just that at the moment I was about to enter the pantry, I felt a surge of intense unease. I instantly received the guidance of Heavenly Secret that I absolutely could not enter. So, after a blur, I found that you had gone in, but I was still outside."
Is this the treatment of a Child of the World?
Chu Xuan's eyes flickered slightly.
When he came to this hospital ward to find Lin Jie, he had already discovered that the remaining survivors were all dead, and the remaining Lin Jie was undoubtedly the Child of the World.
Furthermore, although Lin Jie was very unlucky and frequently fell into life-and-death peril, he could always be saved by Chu Xuan at the most critical moment, ultimately turning danger into safety. This also indirectly proved that the other's Luck was extraordinary.
"Big Brother Chu Xuan, I don't know why this official personnel wanted to kill me. I clearly sensed that the Specter here is already dead, yet I still have an ominous feeling that disaster is imminent."
Lin Jie's body trembled slightly, his eyes filled with a strange light. "I seem to see a countdown. In about less than forty minutes, something terrifying will happen. Blazing temperatures, blinding light... everything will be destroyed. It's something human power cannot withstand..."
"A nuclear explosion is about to occur."
Chu Xuan glanced at the time; it was 7:19. Coming all this way and killing the "Physician" had taken about 4 minutes.
"Nuclear explosion... nuclear explosion?"
Lin Jie suddenly looked up and said excitedly, "Yes, a nuclear explosion! We need to report this to the relevant departments immediately and then get out of here..."
Lin Jie's face turned slightly pale. "No, this is a dead end. No matter where we flee, we'll be targeted with precision? How can this be? Have I already reached the point where I attract such massive disasters?"
In the past, I only encountered inexplicable dangers that brought misfortune to my family and friends, until later when I frequently encountered Specters. Now there's even a nuclear explosion? What should I do?!"
Lin Jie's gaze shifted. "Find an underground air-raid shelter? No, that won't work either. I'd be cornered inside, and I'd be condemned by everyone, mistaken for a Specter..."
"A way out! A way out! Where exactly is the way out?! I've clearly seen a glimpse of it, but why can't I see the whole picture... It's as if someone has erased the traces? Who is obstructing me? I seem to see someone's figure, but it's not clear..."
"Oh no! I've overused my Talent today, and the consumed spirituality is starting to stack. It's not enough again..."
Lin Jie kept muttering to himself, his face deathly pale, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and more white hair growing on his head.
Obstruction?
Is it Revelation...
Seeing this, killing intent flickered in Chu Xuan's eyes. He pulled out a Spirit Pearl, infused it with 1,000 points of spirituality value, and said coldly:
"Don't worry about the spirituality value; I'll provide it for you! Can you actively explore instead of passively accepting guidance? It would be best if you could find that person for me. He has a codename: Revelation! He is a World Traitor!"
"Revelation? World Traitor?"
Lin Jie instinctively took the Spirit Pearl, his expression slightly dazed, as if he were hearing these terms for the first time and was somewhat confused.
But as the misty energy within the Spirit Pearl rapidly diminished, Lin Jie's whole body jolted. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's Revelation! He's a World Traitor! He's the one who sent people to kill me! This person must die!"
"No, there's no time to kill him. I can't harbor thoughts about him for now, otherwise it will all be in vain. But I can cut off his wings first..."
Lin Jie suddenly looked up and stared at Chu Xuan, his expression a bit hesitant. "Big Brother Chu Xuan, I know what to do! As long as we kill a few people, we can get through this crisis! But the backgrounds of these people are extraordinary..."
"No need to say more, and no need to overthink it."
Chu Xuan waved his hand, the Slash within his body already beginning to condense again. His expression remained calm throughout. "Just point in a direction, and I'll go kill. No matter who they are or what their status is, as long as they stand in the way, I will deal with them all!"
"Fine! Then let's wipe them out! Let's kill our way to a clear sky!"
A trace of madness, completely unlike that of a youth, appeared on Lin Jie's fair and tender face. "Gloom Invasion, monsters running rampant! So many people have died in agony, eaten alive and flayed. So many have lost their friends and family and become homeless. These people don't dare to face the Strange Creaturess, yet they are ruthless when it comes to persecuting their own kind. They all deserve to die!"
As he spoke, Lin Jie suddenly raised his hand and pointed southeast. "Go there first, about twenty kilometers in a straight line!"
"Twenty kilometers?"
Chu Xuan peered into the distance toward that direction, his expression unreadable. "In that direction... there really are some big shots..."
