A dream?
Su Hao looked at his hand unconsciously.
However, before he managed to think any deeper, he saw a red light flashing on his 2D map; the red dot was larger than other people in Muguang City. At the same time, there was a gust of wind blowing. The door of the room that Su Hao occupied suddenly opened, and things flew around.
"He's here..."
Su Hao's eyes narrowed.
After waiting for so many days, that guy finally couldn't sit still!
Even under such circumstances, Da Zhuang, who was sleeping next door, wasn't even awoken by the commotion. However, in front of Su Hao, an additional path appeared, leading to the deepest part of darkness!
Su Hao turned unfriendly. You want to single me out?
This guy obviously didn't wish to attract attention from the residents in Muguang City, or perhaps he didn't wish to expose himself. This point happened to be in line with Su Hao. Although he could deal with that guy immediately now, in order to not impact the residents of Muguang City, Su Hao strode in the darkness.
The surrounding was extremely quiet.
On this dark road, there was nothing but wind. Walking in this quiet city really carried quite a unique feeling.
Far away, under the dim street lights, Su Hao saw a thin figure.
"It's you?"
Su Hao raised his eyebrows slightly. He remembered this guy. If he wasn't mistaken, this guy is Da Zhuang's friend. His name was Ming Biao or something. The only one who got recommended by Da Zhuang for the experiment was only him alone.
"So, during these days, you're here to spy?" Su Hao smiled indifferently.
"You shouldn't be too much of a busybody." Ming Biao's thin figure exuded a dark aura, "I had worked for so many years before I managed to make this city like this. You as a foreigner, yet you want to muddle with the affairs here?"
"Well..." Su Hao looked at him with interest, "Then, to be honest, I am more curious about why you did this. Let's have a look, behind every conspiracy will always be a melodramatic truth. I have already experienced this in Gaoyuan City. Then what about you? Is there any injustice done to you?"
"Hmmm, let me think."
Su Hao didn't let Ming Biao speak as he continued in excitement, "Your family got killed? Or your wife got snatched away? Or perhaps... your experience of a heartbreak?"
Ming Biao: "..."
"Could it all aren't true?"
Realizing that there was no response...
"I just passed by here and noticed that this place is suitable for me to improve my origin ability..." Ming Biao said in a somewhat hoarse voice.
"Oh, that was the case." Su Hao's tone was full of disappointment.
Ming Biao: "..."
That disappointing tone caused a few dark lines to appear on Ming Biao's forehead. What's the matter with you? Shouldn't you fight for Muguang City in high spirits? What's with your disappointed look?! Since when were there many melodramatic truths?!
"Does one need a reason to kill a man?" Ming Biao coldly said.
"Oh yeah." Su Hao recovered from his thoughts, "Of course, there is no need for a reason to kill."
For people like them, there was really no reason required to kill someone. In this era of origin ability, human life was akin to grass. If one could contribute to making an esper stronger, the esper would kill without mercy. Do you need a reason to kill one? For them, nope!
This was the truth.
A brutal reality.
Su Hao's heart grew colder.
If there was really a melodramatic truth like Ping Yang, perhaps he could still understand from another perspective, but such a funny yet true reason really made his heart mad.
Does one need a reason to kill?
Of course not!
However, who this guy killed were ordinary citizens!
Espers are a special circle.
Based on Su Hao's understanding, it is fine if you espers kill among yourselves, but once you dare to kill ordinary citizens wantonly, then you're simply courting death! At present, there was such a person. Not only did he kill, he even kept his victims in captivity, treating them no better than animals!
Ding~
"Model Analysis completed."
"Origin model successfully established."
In his sea of consciousness, when Su Hao and Ming Biao were exchanging words, he finished analyzing Ming Biao, and that strong ability talent was finally revealed.
_______________
Name: Virus controller
Grade: S
Description: Powerful parasitic virus can be transmitted to anyone via countless mediums such as air, blood, and bodily contact. Virus controller can be used to control all infected people.
_______________
"Grade S!"
"Virus control!"
Su Hao was stunned, it was really as he suspected.
Regardless of what Ming Biao's previous talent was, after so many years of developing and keeping Muguang City in captivity, he had finally reached grade S talent! Such terrifying talent was simply the best template and sign of the start of the biochemical era!
Su Hao was a bit alarmed.
This Ming Biao wasn't strong. Just any ordinary esper can crush him easily, but if he's allowed to roam around the Federation, a giant disaster will arrive! In fact, the entire Federation might enter into the age of biochemistry! No, this was even more terrifying than the age of biochemistry!
Able to spread through the air?
Su Hao raised his head.
Sure enough, the slight greenish light in Muguang City finally began to spread out. Su Hao understood that although he happened to arrive here, Muguang City's talent advancement had unfortunately been completed and reached grade S recently.
"It seems that I came a bit too late."
Su Hao looked at the sky that was dyed green.
"Hehe." Ming Biao's sullen laughter rang, "Not late, you came just at the right time. Since I completed my grade S advancement, I need a sacrifice..."
"Hehe, a peak professional esper as a sacrifice is simply perfect." Ming Biao excitedly said.
"Really?" Su Hao narrowed his eyes, "You're merely a professional esper."
"Professional esper?" Ming Biao laughed out loud. A powerful force emerged from his body, and the momentum of the domain realm suddenly broke out. Su Hao's eyes lit up. Finally, this guy's trump card was shown, "After killing you, I will refine the entire Muguang City into my domain and then step into the Federation."
"Here..."
"This entire world will be mine, and nobody can stop me!"
1Ming Biao laughed wildly.
Through Model Analysis, Su Hao could see several unique origin techniques, and one of them was a beginner origin technique that is talent advancement. To be frank, this Ming Biao was a talent. Under no one's guidance, he created his own origin techniques and managed to become a professional esper.
Unfortunately...
He walked the wrong path.
"So what if I am a domain esper? What I aim for is the world realm!"
Ming Biao laughed insanely, "I will turn the entire Muguang City into my viral world. When this step is completed, I will definitely become the legendary world esper! Over the years, I have upgraded my grade E talent all the way to grade S. From the specialized realm all the way to the current domain realm."
"All this for a mere domain realm?"
Ming Biao's eyes turned cold, "Muguang City is just my first step, my initial step into the world realm. Then, I will continue city to city until I became the emperor of this world!"
"So that is your aim." Su Hao marveled, "Why did you tell me then?"
"Success always needs to be shared, doesn't it?" Ming Biao smiled, "I have kept this to myself for about six years. Now I feel better after sharing it. However, you're destined to be a dead man."
"Really?" Su Hao smiled lightly, "Do you know that I have done the same thing as you?"
"What?"
Ming Biao paused for a second.
"In the past, I also thought of how to become a world esper." Su Hao continued in a flat tone, "However, my goal is not to infect or destroy this world, nor is it to take it as my own. Rather, I want to replicate this world and build an entirely different world. Plus, I am different from you..."
Su Hao gave a glance at Ming Biao for a second, "I succeeded."
Ming Biao's mind fluttered.
Succeeded?
He suddenly felt that something was amiss. When he opened his eyes to have another look at Su Hao, he seemed to have seen something horrifying!
"You, could you be..."
Boom!
Under the endless bright light.
There was no room for Ming Biao to respond. As the void was cut off, Ming Biao vanished. From today onward, this world had no such person!
Within Kingdom of Heaven, Su Hao was as calm as always while beside him was the horrified Ming Biao.
"Have a look, how's my world?" Su Hao casually pointed around.
Ming Biao looked at Kingdom of Heaven while trembling. He was completely stunned. There were mountains and rivers, while birds flew, and dark fishes wandered in the sea. Each of the fish was full of power that frightened him.
Also, on the beach, there were actually a few people around!
This is a world?
A new world?
Ming Biao couldn't believe it. Even though he had the idea of becoming the master of a world, he just aimed to occupy the existing world. Never had the thought of creating a new world come to his mind! What was even more unbelievable was this person actually succeeded! Ming Biao suddenly felt that this was a crazier man than himself.
"Are you a world esper?"
Ming Biao felt that his own ability couldn't be used.
"Not really." Su Hao continued indifferently, and his eyes were brimming in confidence, "In the outside world, I am only a pseudo world esper, but here? I am a god! A god that controls the entire world!"
Ming Biao was shocked.
He finally understood.
This person he met by chance had a power that he couldn't resist! His only advantage was hiding, but once he revealed himself, this advantage of his vanished!
"Why did you capture me and bring me here?" Ming Biao's voice was as hoarse as always, "Wouldn't it be better to just kill me?"
"Nope." Su Hao continued, "I suddenly had this thought that it would be too boring to kill you. For someone like you who does evil for a living, to die happily like that, how unfair that would be to others?"
"What are you planning to do?" Ming Biao suddenly had a very bad hunch.
"Here." Su Hao pointed at a space, "This will be the new place for you to stay. There are some interesting things inside. I name this place, Purgatory."
"You lunatic!" Ming Biao suddenly wanted to die, but found that his body wasn't under his control at all; shouting madly he questioned Su Hao, "Who do you think you are? A saviour?"
"Saviour?"
Su Hao thought about it seriously, "I'm not interested. I can't control the real world, but I will never allow such an act of yours to happen in Kingdom of Heaven. With the existence of Purgatory, the future Kingdom of Heaven will be even more perfect. So, I'm sorry, but I have to use you as a guinea pig."
Ming Biao felt as if he fell into an ice cave, and his entire body was cold.
Kingdom of Heaven...
Purgatory...
What does this madman really want to do?
