Chapter 1106 - He Has a Name; Its Xiang Nuan (2/2)
After decades of preparation, the ghost fetus had finally initiated his plan. The first move was to be his last. He had calculated everything. This prison formed using the Past’s body was tightening and strengthening. Now, only a Demon God could escape, but both Demon Gods present were held back. Even Xiao Bu, who was one step away from being a Top Red Specter, was unable to shake off the negative influence.
The heartbeat from underground assimilated itself to everyone’s heartbeat. Every time it beat, it would grip at everyone’s heart.
How did he manage to do this?
If this continues, my employees will be in serious trouble. They cannot hold on much longer.
Chen Ge did not look well. Even Red Specters were struggling, much less the normal Specters.
The heartbeat’s coming from underground. To locate the heartbeat, I will have the find the heart that is hidden underground.
The sky was howling with a black storm. The curse that the ghost fetus had gathered for ten years lashed at everything behind the door. It was impossible to shield against the rain and then to find the heart at the same time. Even Zhang Ya could not manage that.
I cannot be a dead weight to Zhang Ya. It is because she needs to guard before me that she cannot evade the rain freely. She can only take it head on. Facing such a huge monster, that is not a wise choice.
The ghost fetus had probably calculated that as well. Chen Ge was still a human, so the ghosts on him would have to suffer the giant monster’s attacks to protect him. In a way, he was Zhang Ya’s weakness. However, could the same not be said of the ghost fetus?
The ghost fetus’ plan was perfect, but he did not calculate for Wen Qing also entering the door.
The rag doll’s missing arm should have been sent back to Jin Hwa Apartments’ Block A. Every other building is crumbling, but that building alone is unaffected. The ghost fetus, or rather, Xiang Nuan is protecting Wen Qing.
Once a person had something they needed to protect, their weakness would be exposed. This was the only crack in the ghost fetus’ perfect plan, and this crack was the last trace of humanity he had left.
“Zhang Ya, go to that tallest building!” Chen Ge shouted. But before he moved, the faceless doctor had already darted toward Block A. This Demon God from the cursed hospital had observed this anomaly as well. Initially, he was held back by the rag doll, but the rag doll did not fight him head on. It mostly just avoided the doctor’s attacks. However, once the doctor moved toward Block A, the rag doll dragged its broken body to stop him.
Chen Ge saw this clearly. Wen Qing was probably the only person the ghost fetus still wished to protect.
Actually, he already has a family, but he just hasn’t realized it himself.
Chen Ge was reminded of the first time he encountered Wen Qing and Xiang Nuan. Wen Qing would take Xiang Nuan to Eastern Jiujiang Dam every day. Wen Qing always accompanied Xiang Nuan, but Xiang Nuan was looking for the obsession that was buried deep inside the hole at the bottom of the dam. The hole was filled with numerable mud statuettes of Chen Ge’s parents. They seemed to represent the ghost fetus’ past desire for familial warmth.
It could not let that obsession go. The pair of eyes stared at the dark and still surface of the water, but it did not realize that there was already someone willing to accompany him by his side.
