Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 242: Perfect Form of the Weeping Reaper

Chapter 242: Perfect Form of the Weeping Reaper

Meng Chao was dumbfounded. He stared at the stalagmite right below his crotch for a full ten seconds.

Then, he turned his head inch by inch and stared at Lu Siya.

“Don’t worry, I did precise calculations,” Lu Siya said.

Then, she swayed and fell limp on the ground.

“Calculated it, my foot!” Meng Chao’s tears spilled out. “You look as if you’re mentally drained, which is a sign that you were draining your mental power like some lunatic just now! You decided to bet everything on that one shot! If your attack went slightly higher, my good friend would have become skewered together with the White Spirit! You... You’re really ruthless! You’d do anything to achieve your goal!”

But now was not the time for him to settle accounts with Lu Siya.

The White Spirit’s abdomen had been pierced by the stalagmite, and its spine was damaged. It would not last much longer.

Sticky blood oozed out of its orifices.

It also gushed out of its mashed temple and abdomen.

Its limbs twitched powerlessly. It could not pull itself off the stalagmite.

Its vitality magnetic field rapidly became weaker, and even the light in its remaining eye became like a waning candle in the wind. It swayed nonstop.

This Hell Beast finally fell into true hell.

But it continued to struggle in the dark abyss, stubbornly releasing its final brain waves and vitality magnetic force.

Meng Chao’s wounds slowly recovered as Bloody Flame continued absorbing the beast’s life.

He wondered why it was still struggling when its death was a certain matter.

Then, he saw it swinging its three tails slightly. The fur on the tips of its tails stood up like antennae, and Meng Chao’s pupils shrank swiftly.

‘No! It’s trying to perform its final mind control!

‘Qin Hu said that the White Spirit has two brains. The first brain has been reduced to mush by the three rifle grenades, so it can no longer think, but the swelled up nerves at the end of its coccyx are still in perfect condition, and it’s considered its second brain! It can still cause trouble!

‘Who does it want to control? It’s not me nor Lu Siya, and even less likely to be Qin Hu... It’s Lin Chuan!

‘It’s using its final drop of life to send an incredibly wicked brain wave to Lin Chuan. Then, even if it dies, Lin Chuan will turn into its “manifestation” and the White Spirit will continue living in an extreme and evil method!’

Meng Chao gritted his teeth and staggered to his feet. He swung his saber at the White Spirit’s tails.

But he was a step too late, and Qin Hu crashed into him while yelping.

Both of them rolled onto Lu Siya, and they could not get up even after a long time had passed.

The Undying Bird rose once more at the corner of the red crystal cluster, and this time, it was a hundred times more monstrous than before.

The Undying Bird’s despairing and angry shriek filled the entire cave.

Red light gathered together to turn into a bloody sea. Raging waves rose up and crashed into their nerves.

The White Spirit’s fox-like face twisted into something that resembled a human’s gratified expression. While smiling, it slowly closed its eyes and fell limp.

“No, things are bad...”

Meng Chao felt his skin crawl.

Even though they managed to kill the White Spirit and got rid of a Supernatural Entity Level problem, they also pushed Lin Chuan into the dark. He might become a demon that was even more terrifying than the White Spirit.

Was this change good or bad?

“Damn it! I’m not dead yet! Again!”

Qin Hu spat out a mouthful of blood that contained at least three of his teeth. He swung his broken saw-toothed saber and stood up. His vitality life force surged to the maximum, and he gathered all the Shooting Star Blades that were madly flying through the area.

When the Shooting Star Blades reached the supersonic speed, he flung his saber with an indomitable spirit.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The dozens of Shooting Star Blades had been flying madly like headless flies in the crystal cave, but at that moment, they bounced back from the crystal clusters, and their unpredictable trajectory became even more chaotic.

Meng Chao and Lu Siya jumped up.

“Ack!”

Qin Hu’s thigh was cut.

Some of the Shooting Star Blades stabbed into the cracked Red Radiance Jades, which released the ancient power contained in them. The entire cave trembled, and it looked like a high pressure cooker that was about to explode at any moment.

Meng Chao was nearly touched by the rampaging spirit energy that gushed out of the cracks of the Red Radiance Jades.

He felt as if he was a roasted ruck stuck in a furnace.

He wanted to cry. “Mr. Hu, ease up a little, will ya? Fighting fiercely in a Red Radiance Jade mine is like firing a gun in a gunpowder storage. If you’re the slightest bit careless, a spirit energy tsunami is going to happen. Even if it doesn’t rush to the surface, it’s still more than enough to burn all of us to a crisp.”

Qin Hu was also shocked. He bared his teeth and pulled out the Shooting Star Blade stuck in his thigh.

For the price of getting hit himself, he had sent more than ten Shooting Star Blades at Lin Chuan, but they were all blocked by the wings of the Undying Bird.

When it opened its red wings, Lin Chuan stood in the middle of a sea of blood. Crimson light shone in his eyes, and it was even brighter than the light of the Red Radiance Jades.

He cast a deep glance at the White Spirit, who had died tragically on the spike.

Then, he tilted his head and looked coldly at Meng Chao, Qin Hu, and Lu Siya. His gaze was that of a monster.

Crystalline tears mixed with blood finally spilled out of his eyes, and he fully entered the state of the Weeping Reaper!

Meng Chao braced his courage and began shouting with a hope to take Lin Chuan up. “B-Big Brother Lin, wake up. You were hypnotized by the monster. It’s skilled with mind control, and when it was about to die, it bewitched you!”

But Lin Chuan smiled sadly and whispered, “I know. I was willing to be hypnotized.”

The group was shocked.

Meng Chao stuttered, “B-Big Brother Lin, what do you mean by willing?”

“How do you think Whitey was able to develop mind control?” Lin Chuan sank into his memories, and his expression turned gentle and sweet. “I’m too soft-hearted. I easily get conflicted and hesitate a lot. I often second-guess myself, and I wonder whether my choice is correct.

“After killing Lu Silian, I might have realized the path that I am to take and decided to become enemies with Siya, Siya’s father, and all the Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons in Dragon City, but when I returned to Dragon City and met Siya and her father, I would remember the days we spent together, and those... were good memories.

“No matter how much Siya’s father owes my father, and regardless of whether he got closer to me because he wanted to set up himself as someone who values his relationships or not, I have to admit, there were instances when I treated Siya’s father as my father in my daze.”

Lu Siya bit her lip and turned her head away. She did not wish for anyone to see her expression.

“At that time, I felt very pained. I believed that the path I chose was correct, but it was too difficult. I had to give up and betray too many things. With every step I took and every person I killed, I felt like I’m killing something deep in my heart,” Lin Chuan explained.

“Whitey saw me feeling dispirited and tormented by my pain, and she heard me screaming in my nightmares. She became anxious and worked up, but she did not know how to help me.

“She helped me by creating a lot of illusions. They were of my father, Siya, her father, of us, and the children... In those beautiful illusions, everyone was alive and smiling. They did not face any restrictions imposed on them by their status, wealth, and power. Everyone was happy and lived carefree lives.

“But illusions are just illusions. She didn’t understand the complicated emotions at the deepest part of the human mind. Well, she didn’t understand it at that time.

“‘It would be great if there was a way to get rid of all my pain and conflict so that my beliefs would become much stronger...’ At that time, I often stood beside the lake and stared at my reflection while I mumbled these words in an attempt to hypnotize myself.

“Whitey saw this, and she wanted to help me be free of my pain completely. So, she quietly ran off to the depths of Graveyard Forest and even the mountainside of Raging Waves to hunt the superbeasts who had mind control abilities. She ate their flesh and brains to develop a brand new ability.

“I don’t know just how many superbeasts skilled in mind control she ate. I don’t know how she managed to fend against the control of those superbeasts either.

“But when I discovered this secret, she had already been wandering at the edge of hell. Every time, she returned bruised and battered and with her brain nearly burned away.

“In the end, it might be due to coincidence or fate providing us guidance again, but she succeeded! Of course, when Whitey just evolved, her mind control was very weak and unstable.

“Besides, the brain structure of middle-grade and low-grade superbeasts is relatively simple. Mind control and brainwave interference for them is about the same. If it’s used on the highly complicated human brains, their success rate isn’t high.

“But that’s okay. Whitey had me.

“I willingly opened up my brain so that she could train her ability. At the same time, I asked her to get rid of all my inner conflict and hesitation and repeatedly strengthen my beliefs. I wanted her to put a mental brand that I could not get rid of on my cerebral cortex.

“Now, you should understand that Whitey had never used me. Right from the beginning, these were my thoughts. Whitey only chose to strengthen them.

“I admit that Whitey tricked me in this matter. I never intended to destroy the Red Radiance Jade mine to create a large-scale spirit energy tsunami so that the Deity Realm fighters and Apocalyptic Beasts would die together.

“But I believe that this is just a white lie from her. Her goal was to increase our strength as quickly as possible so that we could realize our dream to build a fair and beautiful new world.

“Now, Whitey was sacrificed for my beliefs. Tell me, what should I do next?”

The Weeping Reaper’s bloody tears gathered at the corners of his mouth. It formed a strange-looking smile on his face.

He turned around and looked at the explosives gathered at the depths of the red crystals.

“No!”

Meng Chao gritted his teeth and intersected his chain sabers to pounce forward.

Lin Chuan flapped his Undying Bird’s wings to fling him back, and Meng Chao crashed into the wall.

Qin Hu and Lu Siya used their remaining strength to roll forward and launch a pincer attack.

Lin Chuan chuckled. His chain spear wrapped around their legs like a snake, and with a light flick, he flung them away.
