48: Chapter 51 The Kite's Seven Dreams! Eternal Fall! [Bonus Chapter]

"Guard the survival of humanity, and that's just mere survival?"

Su Xiu, who was observing the translucent soul, raised his head from his busy exploration.

The soul-type materials in his hand were the 'Burning Indomitable Soul' transmitted by Paper Kite through its dream ability, which came from a generous warrior who died righteously and self-ignited in exchange for peace.

These were all just trivial details.

However, what about the Association's stance spoken by 002 through the mouth of her split body, Jackdaw?

Guard the existence of humanity!

Instead of guarding the rise and fall of humanity!

Hmm.

Indeed, he was the one who said it. In his past life, he had been dragged down and screwed over into a fool. Having luckily restarted his life, he had no interest in continuing to be a babysitter for all of humanity; maintaining basic stability and keeping the leek patch secure was more than enough.

He had never been a saintly savior.

However, what about the other contents mentioned by 002?

The Supreme Council?

Councilor OA-5?

And all sorts of subordinate organizations, researchers, and doctors?

Uh-huh~

Had he ever made these plans for the Association?

As if sensing the suspicion in Su Xiu's eyes, 002 standing nearby took the initiative to step forward.

Her cold face.

After looking at Su Xiu, could not help but reveal longing and reverence.

"Master!"

"These are all my own ideas. After the Association truly expands, collecting various materials later on will also be much easier..."

002 opened her mouth, pressing her lips together.

She had to admit that she was stimulated by Zhao Jinlong.

A nominal periphery of the Association had actually cobbled together a thousand-strong superpower squad through the development of Sequences.

Yet she herself, as the Association executor designated by Su Xiu.

Had completely empty hands under her command.

With her cold personality and a hint of arrogance, Chaos Girl naturally could not accept this.

Mere... periphery...

As there were more and more Sequences under the Creator's command.

002 felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

She could not accept her status in the Creator's heart being replaced by other guys.

As for why she had to boast so much?

Of course it was because her Sequence number was 002!

Except for some daydreaming snail, she was the very first creation of the Creator!

As the earliest Sequence.

She would either not do it at all or be the absolute highest; she must never be inferior to other Sequences. Arrogance was already carved into 002's bones.

In order to fulfill the blueprint she had boasted about, she even plotted to get the snail to join her.

Flesh! Machinery!

With the two of them joining forces in strength, developing kin, and growing the Association... even in the future situation where Sequences emerged endlessly, they could firmly occupy a dominant position and win the Creator's gaze.

That's right, all the young girl wanted was that gaze of attention.

Thousands of emotions fermented in her heart.

However.

Ultimately.

On 002's slightly drunk, reddened face, after pressing her lips together, she finally opened her mouth,

"Master,"

"If you are not satisfied with the Association's arrangements, I will go deny it with him right now..."

002's icy voice had just sounded.

When Su Xiu waved his hand to stop her.

"No need."

"The matters of the Association were originally left to you to handle exclusively; what it develops into still depends on yourself!"

Su Xiu was somewhat unimpressed.

He had never cared about trivial details.

Authoring Anomalies!

Coping with invasions!

In the competition for divinity in the near future.

Let those 'old friends' from his past life taste what the iron fists of Sequences were like.

This was what Su Xiu kept on his mind.

Implementing the proposal a step early, even if it was just a wisp of the Supreme Divinity's afterglow, could allow him to achieve rapid development.

Especially now that he already had some clues.

He didn't have much interest in formed Sequence anomalies, nor did he have time to take care of them, preferring free development instead.

Regardless of good and bad, right and wrong, order and evil...

It didn't matter!

Chess pieces had never been divided into black and white!

There was only the difference between useful and useless.

Judging subordinates from a stance of good and evil was simply too foolish; he had already suffered such losses in his past life.

As a chess player.

White pieces must be used, and black pieces must be used as well.

As long as their development did not deviate from the final red line, no matter how big of a commotion they made, Su Xiu would be glad to see it happen.

Anyway, the ultimate harvest would be his.

Everything else could deceive people, but emotion points would not!

——

Xijing, above the battlefield!

Just as Su Xiu was talking with Chaos Girl.

Time quietly passed.

In the live broadcast, Paper Kite's dreamlike figure.

Was also gradually discovered by more and more Netizens.

"Jingle~"

The music chimed softly.

Paper Kite swayed gently, scattering radiance downward.

"It?"

"It actually still exists?"

Zhao Jinlong's pupils constricted, his silly face filled with shock.

What happened before was obvious to all.

Allen raised fire and burned himself.

The entire Star-Ascending Giant Ship was burned to ashes under the terrifying flames.

Leaving only the wreckage of the alloy skeleton.

Everyone thought that Paper Kite had also disappeared in the flames, vanishing into bubbles.

However, the picture in the live broadcast.

Completely shocked them.

Shimmering with fluorescent light, Paper Kite not only did not perish in the flames, but didn't even have the slightest trace of charring.

It was like a phantom that didn't exist in reality.

Amidst the shocked gazes of the Netizens.

Lines of text.

Gradually appeared.

Gear finally revealed its might.

[Dream Paper Kite]

[Category: Anomalous Creature]

[A Paper Kite released by a child with flying hopes, infused with the innocent dreams of a child. Under the scorching of strange fires, it gained the ability to shuttle through dreams, making people unable to help wanting to chase it. The longer the chase, the deeper one falls into the dream.]

[Do not chase it, otherwise you will continuously fall downwards through layers of dreams until the lowest layer, falling into the endless abyss forever.]

[Characteristic: Has a special affinity for innocent children and those of noble character.]

[...]

——

"Anomaly! It really is an anomaly! I knew it definitely was..."

As soon as the popular science text appeared.

It made countless Netizens slam their tables.

Paper Kite's special identity had already been guessed by quite a few people from its previous performance.

Able to emit a faint light, able to move independently, able to be safe and sound in liquid hydrogen fuel.

...

This far exceeded the scope of ordinary Paper Kites.

A proper anomalous phenomenon.

Gear's science popularization merely confirmed the inner guesses of the Netizens.

However.

"The power to shuttle through dreams? An anomaly related to dreams?"

"..."

Musing over the words in the science text.

Some quick-reacting ones couldn't help casting their gaze toward the sky.

The shadow entrenched on the moon.

The Demon Dragon's power seemed to be related to dreams as well?

Just as they were lost in thought.

"Jingle~"

The melodious sound rang out once more.

Paper Kite circled around a withered skeleton that had always remained standing. The scattered specks of fluorescent light added a bit of color to its charred skeleton, carrying an inexplicable sorrow.

"Paper Kite!"

"Has a special affinity for those of noble character."

The Netizens couldn't help recalling a line of text in the popular science.

But soon, before they could think too much.

The circling Paper Kite rushed toward the shadow on the moon.

Gathering and forming, when the phantom transformed into a starlight body appeared again.

The Netizens shockingly discovered.

Paper Kite...

Had already arrived at a dreamlike place.

The sky was a pitch-black color.

Towering beech trees pierced through the firmament above, as if supporting the pillars of heaven.

However, their color was not the green of trees, but twisted shadows. Dense black cocoons were spread all over the leaves of the beech trees, giving people a scalp-numbing feeling.

Looking closely.

If one magnified the field of vision.

One could also see the constantly twisting deformed creatures inside these black cocoons.

Shockingly, they were the projections of the Nightmare Entity in the dream.

This eerie place.

Seemed like...

The Demon Dragon's dream!
