Chapter 281 Ghosts and Gods, Combined

Chapter 281 Ghosts and Gods, Combined

Cain did not speak immediately, but looked at Wen Xishu with his eyes.

Of course he knew that Wen Xishu was the one who truly defeated him. He, who possessed god-level power, was now easily controlled by a human.

Cain has also been wondering who this person is.

Now that he heard the other party's intention so obvious, he understood a little.

"Are you one of them?" Cain asked.

Although he was asked to tell everything he knew, Cain was also able to express his own curiosity.

Wen Xishu was actually a little disappointed with this answer.

Because Cain obviously didn't know much.

Wen Xishu sighed:
"That might be my sister. I have been looking for her. If you are willing to tell me about her, I think maybe we can avoid such an unpleasant situation."

Writing down his name would definitely lead to his death, but it would not affect Wen Xishu's promise. Of course, he did not need to promise, because Cain would be forced to answer all his questions.

Cain was a little surprised. In his memory, the woman did say that her brother was looking for her.

Cain actually also longed to know the truth about the world from these true gods.

But right now, he is the one responsible for providing information.

"Yes, she is responsible for my current situation. She told me that there is a power in this world called the Tower."

"This is not a tower as we understand it, but the name of a new power."

Wen Xishu became interested:
"Go on."

What Cain began to say was something very essential:

"The method of obtaining the tower is to create obsession and eliminate obsession."

"That's what she said to me, and it sounded incomprehensible at the time."

"I was able to meet her because the people from the Military Intelligence Agency were always on guard against me and put a collar on me that only dogs would wear."

"The kind that blows off your neck."

Wen Xishu couldn't help but sigh, isn't this a coincidence?

Several killers looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect that even someone as strong as Cain would have experienced such a scene.

Should I say it or not...is it a characteristic of rulers?

Cain said:

"They want me to promote the Bloodline Plan. I am the key to the Bloodline Plan, and they want to control me to continue to control the human world."

"I fought with them, but they also have some people with special abilities similar to me."

"At that time, I didn't have as many followers as I do now, and I wasn't strong enough. So I was quickly captured and put on a collar, and I had to obey them."

"At this point, they thought everything was fine and they could order me around in this way."

"But my abilities gradually began to awaken, and I began to realize that I had to bite someone and let that person do things for me."

"This is also the beginning of the breakdown. The people from the Military Intelligence Bureau only want to control me, but they have never thought of killing me. They also hope to use me to rule the world."

"And I caught on to that, and without them noticing, I bit a lot of people, and they started doing things for me."

"And as more people were bitten by me, my ability became stronger. Finally one day... the highest decision-maker of the Military Intelligence Bureau and the Prime Minister of Lionheart were both bitten by me."

"The Bloodline Project is a really good plan, but I want to be the person in charge of this project, not the savior."

"After I eliminated all my enemies... or more precisely, turned them into my servants, that woman appeared."

"She also said something strange at that time. The method of obtaining the power of the tower comes from creating obsession and eliminating obsession."

"She also said at the time: I advocate eliminating obsessions and getting everything back on track, but it seems that your style is indeed different from mine."

"She does call herself an Aries. Just let me call her that, too."

"She said I resembled the historical Cain, which I thought was a good name since I am indeed a vampire now."

"Aries told me that the difference in each person's obsession determines the difference in power after the end of the world."

"If someone desires the happiness of others, then perhaps he or she has the ability to make others happy."

"Someone who longs to be loved but is not good at expressing himself may gain the ability to materialize his inner thoughts."

"There are also people who long for their brothers to always be by their side. When their brothers are by their side, they can become stronger."

"Some people also long to be understood, so her feelings can be implanted in others like memories."

"And I crave blood. This is not just a pure obsession, it's also a fetish."

These words gave Wen Xishu a little shock.

Should I say it or not... He actually heard a lot of his old friends in this conversation.

Is this really what Aries said?

The one who longs for others' happiness, isn't it Morita Hitomi? The one who longs to be loved but is not good at expressing it, isn't it Jack? The one who wants his brothers to be around, isn't it the An family brothers?
And the desire to be understood, so that her feelings can be implanted like memories, could it be Tang Rui?

Really similar.

But logically speaking, they shouldn't be so similar.

So Wen Xishu couldn't help but make a bold guess.

What if the power of these people...is not Jack, Tang Rui and others?
For example, if you want your brothers to be by your side, you will become stronger when your brothers are around...

I'm not referring to the An brothers, but rather - what about Gemini?
Wen Xishu felt it was a bit of a coincidence and a bit confused, but he did not interrupt Cain.

"Between eliminating obsession and disintegrating obsession, I thought that allowing you to possess the legendary vampire power was a kind of... disintegration. After all, it's what I wanted."

"But I seem to be wrong. I will continue to observe for a while so as to draw the correct conclusion."

"Keynes, you will be called Cain from now on."

Cain laughed at himself:

"I actually quite like the name Cain, but I hate her condescending attitude."

"But you should have guessed that there is a huge gap between me and her... just like me and -"

In the end, Cain did not say the words "It's as if the gap between you and me is so big."

After all, he also saw that this god-like existence seemed to be satisfying the four killers.

Perhaps, this is also a way to break down obsession.

Cain said:

"I am no match for her. The power gap between us is not on the same level."

"She told me to save the world according to my vision, to keep human beings alive, and to allow thoughts that can think, love, hate, dedicate themselves, and be selfish to continue."

"Of course I am happy to change the world. What happened next was a carnival."

"I've liked blood since I was a kid. You know, it's said that only 3 in 100,000 people are interested in human blood and think it's delicious."

"Humans, from generation to generation, seem to want those 3 in 100,000 people to die, but they always survive. In every era, there is always a small group of people who act like beasts in civilized society."

"They crave the flesh and blood of their own kind. They also hope that one day this world will be able to suck blood freely. Even that sucking blood will become a right thing to do."

Wen Xishu suddenly wanted to say, you'd better be talking about vampires.

Cain said:

"The world I longed for has arrived. With the help of Aries, I became the strongest vampire in the world."

"I am the savior of the Bloodline Project and the master of this project."

"In my country, bloodsucking is free, legal, and encouraged."

"Under my influence, parents sucked the blood of their children, and children sucked the blood of their parents. Friends sucked each other's blood, relatives sucked each other's blood, and strangers also sucked each other's blood."

"In the beginning, the hematopoietic plan can provide enough blood. The city has a large population, so we can even hold a blood party."

"Have you ever tried killing six thousand people and then bathing in a giant... pool of blood and corpses?"

"That baptism made me feel extremely happy. I still miss it very much."

"But... not long after, all the blood-forming equipment was destroyed. Destroyed by that woman."

Cain actually hated Aries. He said coldly:
"She showed up again, and this time she told me that her experiments were complete and she had found part of the answer."

"She relieved my obsession, but because of me, she created more obsessions."

"She gained a lot of power from the tower, but this was not what she wanted. She will also avoid this practice. I don't understand what this woman is trying to say. But after that..."

"Crystal City is beginning to decline because there is no blood. And we are unable to leave Crystal City."

Wen Xishu thought carefully about Aries' words.

He seemed to understand a little.

Cain got a chance, and this chance was very special, so special that only Cain, a 3 in 100,000 person, could get it. In other words, Cain had the qualifications to use the "Tower Power" and become a vampire-like being.

Aries discovered this and injected the power of the tower into Cain, turning Cain into a vampire.

Cain's wish was fulfilled, and the era of legal blood-sucking arrived.

But the sin of killing that Cain committed created a greater obsession.

These obsessions give Aries strength, but they go against Aries’ original intention. However, Aries itself is also doing experiments.

Wen Xishu said:
"Did she tell you why she chose a vampire? Your ability was given by her. In other words, you were chosen by her. But why didn't she give you a power that was more...less evil?"

Cain was a little surprised that Wen Xishu seemed to know the scene at that time:
“I did say that.”

"According to her, when the end of the world comes, the Tower Power will look for people with determination and qualifications. They tend to mutate and evolve to become people who can adapt to the end of the world, just like... your friends."

"Aries can get guidance and meet these people. But there are too many people in this world who are obsessed and qualified. Her division of labor, or her match, is not this kind of people."

"Everything she is in charge of is related to ancient myths, secrets, and legends."

Wen Xishu's fingers trembled as they met.

"She told me that in addition to human obsession, there is another kind of special obsession that is beyond human."

"This obsession is not from a single individual, but is formed by the recognition of countless people in human history as 'ghosts, gods, demons and monsters'."

"In Lionheart Country, vampires are one of the concrete images of 'ghosts'."

"And I just happened to be recognized by this alternative obsession. In other words, I am the best carrier for vampires to appear in the world."

"She also said that in addition to vampires, all kinds of demons and monsters might appear. The carriers of this kind of obsession are often stronger than ordinary obsession bodies, but not absolutely. Just generally speaking-"

"The 'ghosts' will become more powerful and easier to be 'revered'."

Wen Xishu couldn't help but ask:

"The 'dragon' in Long Xia's Dragon Hidden Plan is also a 'ghost god'?"

Cain shook his head:

"I don't know. I have been isolated for too long. No one dares to come here, and I won't leave this city."

"Everything I know was told to me by that woman."

"She said that the Savior Plan is actually a plan based on 'ghosts and gods'. It seems that it always tends to unite humans, but this kind of union is not unity, but a literal union."

"The ghost and god corresponding to the Ark Project... is God."

"God wants the differences to be erased, so that everyone can become...uniform. This is 'unification'."

This sentence reminded Wen Xishu of the islands in Sirius' heart.

"The Dragon Hidden Plan may be the same. I only know that the 'combination' they mentioned seems to be fusion? I don't know."

"As for the bloodline plan, you should be able to understand. Under me, everyone is my blood embrace, and they all obey me. It can be said that Crystal City is united."

"Of course, there is also the Sky Dome Project and the Island Nation's Savior Project, but I don't know about their 'ghosts and gods' and how they 'combine'."

The words "ghosts" and "combination" seem to summarize all the savior plans very well, and make the commonalities of these plans manifest.

Wen Xishu thought about it and became more and more frightened.

He has seen many people with special abilities, from the not-so-strong An brothers to those with extraordinary powers like Tang Rui, Xiao Xing and Xiao Tong.

But they are all individuals.

Compared to the savior...the individual's obsession is insignificant.

The union of the Savior and the people of His kingdom is clearly a more powerful attempt.

Cain of the Lionheart Kingdom had not sucked blood for too long and had become weak, but even so, he still had an invincible power for Wen Xishu at this stage.

If it weren’t for the Land of Obsession, where he could activate the “hack” from the underworld, he would never have been able to defeat Cain.

And Cain, or the vampire of the Lionheart Kingdom, may be the weakest among the many "ghosts and gods".

Aries is responsible for things related to ancient times. Now Wen Xishu suddenly understood...

What in the world is it related to in ancient times?

It is related to "legend" and "myth".

Fortunately, the five assassins wanted to kill Cain. Wen Xishu was now somewhat curious about the Swan Project, the Dragon Hidden Project, the dragon, and the god. These things described the product of Long Xia...

What kind of monster is it?

What role does Mr. Jin, who is devoted to Longxia, play in it?
Wen Xishu let out a long sigh:

"I think I have finished asking all my questions. Thank you for your answer."

Cain didn't say much.

Because his body had begun to dissipate bit by bit, like a vampire exposed to the sun...beginning to burn, turn to ashes, and finally turn into dust.

Several killers listened to the conversation between Wen Xishu and Cain and didn't know what to say for a moment.

To them, Aries, "ghosts" and "combination" are all extremely unfamiliar things.

It's as if the two sides are not from the same world.

Wen Xishu actually had a headache too.

Do you want to activate the invitation letter?

"He finally died. I didn't expect that he was very cooperative before his death. He answered all the questions you asked. I say... he wouldn't have been hypnotized by you, right?" Cannon asked.

Wen Xishu shook his head:
"How could that be? You've heard it too. 'Devil', 'Savior', these high-sounding titles are enough to describe how powerful he is. I can hypnotize some minions, but I can't hypnotize an enemy of this level."

Cannon said:

"I always feel like this is all a dream. People like us actually killed the King of Vampires."

Ying nodded:

"It's so dreamy. I suddenly feel like I have no regrets in life."

Same thing with the cannon:
"Yes, we don't even have to go back to report, we are even free."

The killers had probably never been so happy.

They all felt that their life mission had been accomplished.

All obsessions were shattered at this moment.

In fact, this is the first time for Wen Xishu to complete a game "perfectly" in the true sense.

Although he did not receive any prompts and had not yet gone to the Desire Tower, Wen Xishu was very clear that his reward this time would at least be at level six.

Even without the help of the reality changes of the Desire Tower.

It is rare for him to serve his "obsession" so comfortably in the strange tower.

Although the killers are people who are obsessed with the world, they are unaware that this is the real world for them.

Their perceptions and experiences also have the most authentic feedback.

With the help of the Death Feather Pen, Wen Xishu solved all the powerful enemies and worries. In a sense, in the previous journeys to the spooky tower, they would go to the real world halfway through.

Finally, by changing reality, the strange tower was reset.

This time was different, this time I really did a thorough job of the current level and current tasks. Wen Xishu was very curious whether there would be any different rewards.

Cannon helped Cosmos up, while Canon helped Night Demon up, with Shadow in the middle.

Five killers walked out of the Crystal City, their backs showing no regrets.

Suddenly, Cannon turned around:
"King of Murder, let's go together?"

For the killers, there are still many places to go in this world, but for Wen Xishu...

He has completed his mission.

He was also a little entangled, wondering whether to activate the invitation. Would the obsession change because of the change in reality? So the strange tower that he had passed perfectly became no longer perfect?
Wen Xishu suddenly asked:
"By the way, in your impression... is there anyone who likes to play pranks?"

When he was on the seventh floor, Wen Xishu once heard Jin Zaimin talk about a person. He said that there was a high-level Honkai Impact 3rd who could convey some information to the lower levels.

Wen Xishu cares a lot about this and has never forgotten it.

Now it is the forty-ninth floor, which is also a level related to seven. Wen Xishu suddenly realized...

When breaking a hemp rope, choose the thinnest part; when squeezing a persimmon, choose the softest part.

In the Desire Tower, the Collapser who teases everyone is the easiest target for Wen Xishu.

He thought that the world was open and that there was no need for him to worry about whether he could give the killers a good ending in the Desire Tower.

He doesn't even have to change history, but he can go beat up the Honkai Impact 3rd.
