Chapter 269: Those who have nothing to begin with

Moreover, he has not forgotten to put the roasted monster into the storage box that has doubled the space.

Although Su Wen has no interest in eating these mutated monsters.

But never let go of potentially useful material.

This is probably an essential virtue for a good game player and adventurer.

Look at the remains scattered on the ground.

He got a clue worth pondering:

[Identification: Due to the pollution of the abyss, the remains of a very weak twisted will are lodged]

Su Wen lowered the height of the torch slightly, bringing all the wreckage into the purification range of the flame.

then.

From an appraisal perspective.

He saw countless dissipating black shadows.

Those black shadows are exactly the same as the monsters that appeared when Grace caused the disaster before.

The emergence of this phenomenon made Su Wen feel a little more in-depth.

at the same time.

The system prompt also appeared as expected:

[Christmas Puzzle Detected: Black Shadow]

[Puzzle clues:

Great Chief Player, your inference is correct. Rockefeller University's Research Institute No. 76 indeed hides the origin of the Black Shadow.

at the same time.

The wreckage in front of you contains despair at the moment of death]

“Despair breeds fear.”

Su Wen chewed the term.

His eyes gradually became colder:

"Caroline.

Now, help me find the origin of the missing people in New York State in the fall and winter of 2020."

Hear him say that.

Ms. Hacker also seemed to understand something.

She moves quickly through the statistics.

then.

The girl blinked her eyes and gave out a seemingly inconspicuous data word for word:

"There are 3,782 people, 93% of whom are homeless.

In the second year of its origin, it was caused by the war in Windsor, Canada.

America has ushered in a new round of soaring prices and inflation, and the number of homeless people has surged.

so.

This is probably why the Night Watch did not conduct a thorough investigation."

Hear her say that.

The handsome detective said calmly and silently:

"Because I'm homeless.

At the same time, it cannot be of any help to this greedy capital society.

so.

It was treated as waste fuel.

But even so.

Some people still need them to burn their last ray of light and heat for this world.

Really:

A world that is dirty and pathetic enough!”

Combining the information he had just obtained, he gave an inference that was very close to the truth:

"Boris is able to determine the timing of the release of the black shadow with incomparable accuracy.

And even after his death, the disaster showed no sign of stopping.

Extend from this point.

The Black Shadow Disaster should be a by-product of previous research at Rockefeller University's Institute 76.

and.

The original end date was December 23rd.

But Boris chose to postpone it for one day.

The dragon skeleton is released on Christmas Eve on the 24th.

in other words.

For these shadows, the timing of 'Christmas Eve' and 'Christmas Day' does not involve the supernatural power of the Holy See praying for Christian-like magical rituals.

Everything is left with only one possibility:

‘They’ still retain human intelligence.

but.

That’s just the ‘only thing left’.”

Miss Caroline is very smart.

After he analyzed this.

The girl remained silent.

then.

Su Wen sighed and said calmly:

"so.

The destination we want to go to.

Only in places where the four monitoring channels and lighting you just observed are intact.

And that place.

I think.

There should be no need to use the elimination method anymore.”

He and Caroline walked calmly to the door of the [Formalin Storage Room].

Feel the abyssal pollution accumulating inside the door.

At the same time, the handsome detective continued to elegantly swing his sword to eliminate the black shadows that were attacking them.

The system prompt also arrived as scheduled:

[Congratulations: Great Chief Player]

[You have successfully solved the puzzle: Black Shadow]

[Get a chance to draw a Christmas gift box]

then.

After the fourth draw.

Su Wen received an extremely delicate bracelet made of sterling silver and studded with micro-diamonds:

[Holy Relic: c4-2 ‘Distant Galaxy—Karl’s Mimicry Bracelet]

[Characteristics of holy relics:

Regression: You can use it to repeat the extraordinary properties you have used once

(Note: Extraordinary characteristics are not limited to this game)]

After determining the treasure reward.

He calmly waved the blue sword in his hand.

moment.

Accompanied by the shattering of the broken hatch of the research institute.

Countless horrific scenes appeared before their eyes.

That was a missing person whose body had long been shriveled up and soaked in a formalin airtight tank.

now.

With Su Wen's intrusion.

All the corpses, eroded by the pollution of the abyss for many years, slowly turned their heads to look at him in an extremely ferocious state.

"Do we need to destroy them all?"

Caroline looked at a familiar figure in a jar, and there was a hint of sadness in her words.

But Ms. Hacker is by no means a soft-hearted person.

If Su Wen nods.

Then the next second.

All drones suspended in the air will immediately open fire to clear everything.

The girl thought that she no longer needed to ask this answer.

after all.

Those ferocious mummies may have once been a group of poor people with nothing.

But now, they have become monsters and stand on the opposite side of human civilization.

only.

After hearing her question.

Su Wen shook his head.

He slammed the blue sword in his hand into the ground.

The world's loneliest savior calmly expressed his respect with his right hand on his chest.

then.

He used the [Holy Relic: c4-2 ‘Distant Galaxy—Karl’s Mimicry Bracelet’ he just obtained]

[Characteristics of Holy Relics: Return]

[Extraordinary Mimicry: Afterglow of Light Branlit’s Lantern]

In an instant.

A twilight light spread quietly.

The dim light expanded from the edge of the world, forming an undetectable circular psychic field.

A simple lantern with an elegant appearance, exuding a brown-black Baroque style that can soothe the soul, appeared in his hand.

A silent oath followed:

[I mourn the dead, just like Helena swears an oath for the living]

[Only silence brings forth words; only darkness becomes light; only death brings new life; fireflies fall into the void, shining brightly.]

[I am the extraditer of the forgotten people——‘The afterglow of the light’——Branlett]

Under the reflection of the afterglow of the lights.

Those experimenters who had had most of their rationality eroded by the pollution of the abyss have slightly gained the ability to think.

But they still can't express anything.

Su Wen raised the lantern.

He sighed, and then said calmly:

"Death is for you.

It is already inevitable.

But the murderers who once controlled you are also dead.

So far.

I want to know.

At the end of life.

You who once had nothing want to leave as a monster.

still.

As a human being!"

Hear him say that.

The withered human figures shattered the glass cover in front of them and walked towards Su Wen.

Su Wen did not have any warning about their actions.

He just watched everything silently.

However.

Only five meters away from Su Wen.

All polluters stopped.

Kneel down on one knee and kneel in front of him.

Then everyone raised their heads.

The facts are here.

‘Their’ answer.

No more words are needed to answer.
