Chapter 943: In the Midst of the Disaster (2)Translator: CKtalon 

In Master Zhuang’s room filled with machines.

The abnormally angry voice of Shadow of Distortion sounded in Du Heng’s ears: “We gave you so much support, but you actually want to drag us to our deaths!”

This wasn’t just his question; it also belonged to Door of Scorching and Last Man.

Du Heng sighed when he heard that. “Garland, we actually died decades ago. The ones alive now are only devils that exist through our consciousness. I don’t want to eventually degenerate completely and lose what’s left of me as a human.

“I’ve been wrong for a long time and have been wrong many times. I can’t continue this mistake. Let’s rest in peace together.”

Nobody listened to him because all the Kalendarium blocked their hearing.

As Shadow of Distortion, Last Man, and Door of Scorching either retreated or rebelled, the rooms leading to the core area of the New World opened.

Dozens of Du Heng used their privilege to turn different rooms into mazes to slow down the Kalendarium.

Arbiter of Fate Zhao Danlin wore a crown and a robe embedded with flowers and leaves. She seemed to have transformed into the legendary goddess of Chu, quickly passing through different intersections along the ground and walls as she headed for her destination.

Suddenly, a faint light lit up in front of her.

Green colors quickly filled the area, and a golden Buddha appeared in her eyes.

She raised her eyebrows and said, “Li Hui, are you repeatedly switching sides?”

The Buddha gave a Buddhist proclamation. “Amitabha. I’m only helping you so that you can gather here and weaken your ability to influence the outside world, preventing you from escaping in the chaos.”

This voice sounded in Arbiter of Fate’s heart.

Reverse use of his Mind Reading!

“You want to die too?” Arbiter of Fate asked in a deep voice.

The Buddha sighed and said, “The more I read the Buddhist scriptures, the more I regret my original joy and my abject way of living over the years. In order to not let the new Awakened affect the Ashlands, I made my believers choose to give up their physical bodies and bind them to me. If I don’t enter hell, who will?

“Patron, death is joy!”

Seeing that she couldn’t convince him, Arbiter of Fate immediately used ‘Halting Consciousness,’ an upgrade from Cardiac Arrest.

Almost at the same time, a solemn voice echoed around Subhuti Li Hui.

Consciousness Deprivation!

The two Kalendarium lost consciousness at the same time, but they quickly woke up.

Arbiter of Fate didn’t hesitate and immediately used the location she had pinpointed in Pangu Biology and End Year City to extract a portion of human consciousness to replenish herself.

She didn’t absorb them all because the capacity of her pool was limited; it would only be a waste if she absorbed too much. Moreover, there was still a tough battle ahead, so she had to use them sparingly to maintain her optimal state.

…

In the radio station on the sixth floor of Pangu Biology’s underground building.

When Hou Yi completely woke up, there was nobody there. Only the recording kept replaying.

“Big Boss is the Kalendaria, Arbiter of Fate. She established Pangu Biology only to rear us and feed on our consciousness?” Hou Yi listened to the broadcast and gradually ‘believed’ in this matter.

But halfway through the recording, before Shang Jianyao could finish telling them to escape the underground building, the broadcast stopped. The supercomputer, Omega, finally received an order to block the broadcasting circuits.

When Hou Yi heard the voice stop, she hurriedly left the recording studio and rushed to the radio station’s exit. Suddenly, she saw a few turbid-eyed and hunched Heartless biting at human flesh.

Hou Yi took a silent breath and quietly retreated to the radio station.

On the 495th floor.

The moment they returned, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen headed straight for Zone C, Room 11.

Against the tide of people heading to the elevator lobby, the two ran very quickly and returned to the door.

“What’s going on?” Gu Hong stood there with a puzzled expression. Her terrified heart calmed down when she saw her son and daughter-in-law rush over.

The broadcast had already stopped.

Long Yuehong blurted out, “You didn’t go to work?”

Gu Hong shook her head and replied blankly, “I wasn’t feeling well in the morning, so I applied for time off and didn’t go. I just came back from the hospital.”

She shook the medicine bag in her hand.

Just came back from the hospital… Long Yuehong was abnormally glad that he and Bai Chen were cautious and came home to confirm the situation.

Before the broadcast was cut off, Shang Jianyao’s recording played a total of five rounds, affecting perhaps 100,000 employees. But in their plan, only a small number of people in the hospital area would be implanted with the thoughts, hoping that these people would result in others escaping.

It wasn’t targeted at everyone. Therefore, Gu Hong slipped through the cracks.

Long Yuehong made a prompt decision and didn’t waste his breath. “Mom, let’s quickly escape to the surface!”

“T-this will result in punishment, right?” Gu Hong was very worried.

Bai Chen pointed at the few employees running past them and said, “Everyone is fleeing. The law can’t punish everyone!”

The flustered Gu Hong was convinced. Just as she was about to follow her son and daughter-in-law to the nearest elevator lobby, she saw a familiar figure from the corner of her eye—Long Dayong!

Long Yuehong’s father was running home.

“Dad, you didn’t escape?” Long Yuehong asked in surprise.

Long Dayong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Gu Hong. “I was planning on fleeing with them, but I recalled that your mother might still be at home!”

Gu Hong’s heart immediately warmed, and her eyes turned moist.

Long Yuehong waved his hand and said, “Let’s go!”
