Chapter 238 Death
While Levi was still immersed in Lao Le's last words, the pure white glowing space around him gradually disappeared from Levi's eyes at some point.
His five senses returned to reality. It was still the bloody room. There was a third-level scientist with a bear head lying coldly in a pool of blood. Le Yue, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that his eyes had regained focus and he had returned to normal from his dazed state.
"What happened to you just now? I can feel that you are connected to something related to electrical charge."
Levi's mood was a little complicated. Although he had only known Lao Le for less than a month, he could feel that this old man was indeed one of the few people in this world who was in a high position but had normal thoughts and mental state.
There were few people like him, and now he had left himself a will.
Even Levi couldn't help feeling sentimental.
He shook his head at Le Yue.
"Nothing, Lao Le just told me something."
"My grandpa? What did he say?" Le Yue was stunned and asked.
Levi didn't answer her question, he just said as he turned and left.
"Come with me first. He asked me to take you to a place."
After leaving the room, Levi also looked at the task status on the player information.
At this point, the task progress has reached [100/100] and the task reward is shown as pending.
Shifting his attention away from this, Levi and Le Yue hailed a taxi and drove towards the Royal Gardens.
What they didn't notice was that when they just left in the taxi, a black car slowly started up on the side of the road and followed them silently.
Only exists in the realm of darkness.
The Royal Research Institute that was pulled in no longer had its original clean and bright appearance, and had become a pile of ruins. The number of the chosen ones that had originally surrounded Lao Le had obviously been reduced by one third!
There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. Every one of the survivors was covered in wounds, but Lao Le was still the same as he was at the beginning. His patched robe was rustling in the wind that blew from somewhere.
He walked on the ruins of the Royal Academy of Sciences, his face calm and no one could tell what emotion he was feeling.
But only those chosen ones who faced him directly saw that Lao Le was not as strong as he appeared to be!
The empty black hole in his abdomen had spread to his chest cavity!
And its scope is constantly expanding and growing!
As long as they can continue to drag it out and push time back, they don't have to find a way to get rid of Lao Le. This old man outside the tower, the only one who has transcended the chosen one, will be completely eaten up by the thing that is about to devour his entire body!
Countless rules that construct this world emerged in the dark space.
The space that was originally empty and without any visible material began to see the action of forces, the reaction of elements, the division of cells, and the movement of gases.
With the rules mastered by these chosen ones, they can completely transform this domain that originally belonged to Lao Le into a world exactly the same as the outside world and enforce the laws of nature!
However, despite the emergence of those rules, Lao Le remained unmoved. He searched among the ruins of the Academy of Sciences with a clear goal, and finally found what he was looking for!
It was a storage room. Because of the fierce battle just now, more than half of the room had collapsed, but the iron shelves in the room were still intact. There were hundreds of glass jars on those shelves, and in each jar, there was a human brain soaked in liquid!
After seeing these jars, Lao Le looked particularly sad and old.
His originally straight spine bent.
"I'm sorry, everyone. I'm late."
Lao Le's hoarse voice echoed here, and the black hole in front of him, which seemed to want to swallow him whole, was still expanding!
It seemed that those chosen ones did not cause any substantial attack on him, but this domain had rules that belonged to Lao Le alone. When the rules in the domain were twisted and changed, he himself would suffer substantial damage!
But in the same way, when those chosen ones wanted to impose their own rules here, Lao Le's own rules were constantly eroding and occupying them. Every once in a while, a chosen one would be torn apart by the darkness, and eventually fall to the ground helplessly with blood gushing out!
Lao Le did not look at how those chosen ones were struggling. He just stretched out a hand and held the iron frame beside him where the human brain was stored. Then, a fire ignited from the ground!
The flames expanded and grew at an extremely fast rate, and soon engulfed all the human brains on the iron rack!
Lao Le just watched the flames burning silently. His like-minded people, whose bodies and minds had been bound for decades, were finally freed at this moment!
When the flames burned to their maximum and four or five of the chosen ones fell to the ground, Lao Le's entire body below the neck, except for his head and limbs, turned into a black hole of nothingness!
He was finally reaching the end of his life. This kind of torture had lasted for nearly forty years since he returned to the central government!
The pain that was worse than death had gradually become a habit for him, and now he was about to have his final relief.
Lao Le held onto the broken wall and turned to look at the chosen ones who had already sensed that the surrounding domain was fading and collapsing and was gradually slipping out of their control.
All these people gathered together, and of the original five directors of the research institute, only three were left!
Of the five chiefs who came out of the Royal Academy of Sciences, only two are left, including Jiang Li, who has been passive and lazy and is purely concerned about saving his own life.
Even more casualties were suffered among the other chosen scientists. Nearly half of the people who were pulled into this domain were killed by Lao Le. This is close to one-third of the entire central government and one-fifth of the number of chosen people in the entire world!
With so many rule controllers missing, if the central government fails to fill the gaps in the rules as soon as possible, it will have a huge impact on the real world!
But obviously, no one here can think so much!
Lao Le's domain finally couldn't be maintained any longer. The academy had become a ruin, with more than a dozen corpses of the chosen ones on the ground, and the chosen ones who had gathered together again, finally returned to the real space. But even though Lao Le looked exhausted at this time, the chosen ones still remained vigilant!
None of them acted rashly and had no intention of getting close to Lao Le.
That fire was also brought out from the domain, and the flames rising into the sky seemed to burn even the smallest bit of the sky in the center red.
Around this royal garden that had been razed to the ground, the shrill sound of sirens continued to sound. The Criminal Division had dispatched almost all of its police forces, and the Detention Center had also mobilized all its personnel to completely isolate the garden from the outside world, and at the same time blocked any news media reports!
Lao Le can die, but the people must never be allowed to know that the current position of the Twilight Church is contrary to that of the entire central government!
People turning into animals will only cause riots in this city, but when the Twilight Church and the Central Government are in opposition, it will cause huge unrest all over the world!
Lao Le had completely turned into a dying old man at this time. He was panting and holding on to the broken wall beside him. Under the gaze of those still vigilant Chosen Ones, he slowly climbed up the stairs exposed to the air and finally reached the highest point of the academy that had become a ruin.
Looking around from here, all he could see was the police lights surrounding the garden flashing continuously. But with Lao Le's eyesight, he could see through the lights and see the girl who was sticking her head out of the window of a house outside the garden, with a confused and helpless look on her face.
Lao Le sighed, and after this sigh, he turned around again and looked at those chosen ones, and at this time there was only indifference on his face.
The ground lost its gravitational pull on him, and he floated up, standing in the air above the blazing fire!
At this moment, whether it was the police officers who were blocking the perimeter or the onlookers who were watching the excitement, they could all see a figure flying above the flames!
The faces of the chosen ones were all extremely solemn!
They all knew that they must not let the fact that Lao Le died at the hands of them be exposed at all costs, but now no one dared to take the first step!
The more this old man looks like he is on the verge of death, the more frightening he is!
However, the final counterattack that these people imagined did not occur.
Lao Le seemed to just want to show his face in front of someone. He floated above the fire. The blazing flames illuminated his face. The rising hot air blew on his tattered robe. The pitch-black hole almost swallowed up his head!
The minds and bodies of the chosen ones were all tense, and everyone stared at Lao Le intently. The lines that maintained the rules of the world began to appear faintly in the air in a materialized state!
Lao Le faced the north, looking at someone from afar, muttering in a voice that only he could hear.
"Let people go back to their homes"
The next second, his body completely collapsed, and the dark flesh hole had swallowed nothing left. Only the lonely head was left, falling straight into the sea of fire!
This scene was seen by many people. Although the people who were blocked on the periphery could not see the face of the man flying above the flames, they could see that in the end only his head was left engulfed by the flames!
There were cries of surprise around the garden, but those chosen ones who witnessed it all still didn't dare to move!
They watched as Lao Le was left with only his head. Anyone who reached this point would have absolutely no chance of survival.
But how could he die so quietly?
Even though so many chosen lives have been sacrificed, the remaining people still don’t think that Lao Le would arrange their own deaths in this way!
How could this huge mountain that has weighed on the heads of every person in power in the central government for nearly forty years come to an end like this?
He came to the Academy of Sciences on his own initiative. Is this his final counterattack before death?
Just when all the chosen ones were looking at each other, still doubting the result, suddenly, countless flashing electric charges lit up out of nowhere in the center!
A scream of extreme despair echoed throughout the city!
When Levi brought Le Yue to the Royal Garden, it had been completely blocked by the Criminal Department and the Rehabilitation Institute.
It was late at night, but many people in the central government were still alarmed by the huge noise here, and gathered around the cordon, talking about it.
After Levi judged the difficulty of sneaking through the cordon, he gave up the idea of getting closer.
Lao Le just asked him to bring Le Yue here and did not ask for any further actions.
So they found a five-story apartment nearby and moved into an empty room on the top floor.
By this time, the fire had already consumed the remains of the Academy of Sciences.
"My grandfather asked you to bring me here? What exactly does he want me to see?" Even when being taken upstairs by Li Wei, Le Yue was still full of confusion.
But when she saw the figure rising slowly above the fire from afar, she became like a clay sculpture, completely stunned!
Ordinary people couldn't see clearly who the person flying in the air was, but with Le Yue's physical fitness, she could easily recognize him!
At this moment, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and could not feel any warmth in her body!
Le Yue stared blankly, and before she could come to her senses, Lao Le's body collapsed!
The old man who raised her and was the closest person to her in the world was left with only a head, and eventually fell into the sea of fire!
Le Yue's pupils have shrunk into the size of pinholes!
"No, no. No."
She unconsciously uttered these words that didn't even form a sentence.
Levi, who had witnessed Lao Le's death with his own eyes and was in a state of shock, suddenly realized that something was wrong with Le Yue!
There were light blue electric charges emitting subtle exploding sounds around her body, and her eyes, filled with despair and grief, showed no trace of a living being!
"Pfft!"
Le Yue fell to her knees helplessly on the ground. She looked extremely painful, holding her head tightly with both hands. Ever since she experienced what happened at the Central Committee 626 years ago, when she first learned that was destroyed by biological beings, the mental problems she had developed had been exacerbated by the death of Forrest at the academy, and now after witnessing the death of Lao Le with her own eyes, they had completely erupted!
"what!!!"
She let out a scream that seemed to pierce everyone's eardrums!
The electric charge that was originally only maintained around Le Yue began to spread in all directions, and in the blink of an eye it spread throughout the city like lightning!
I can't bear it tonight, I will update it early tomorrow, around noon
