Chapter 2713 - No God (2/2)
Horizontal Evil still didn’t answer him. He stared at Han Sen with fire in his eyes. A while later, he said, “This could be the final stand of our race. I shouldn’t be asking this of you, but I have no choice now. And you are a crystallizer. That means we are allies, and therefore, I have to depend on you.”
“This task will be very difficult. It might ruin the entire fate of your race and yourself. After this, you might become an enemy of the gods. Are you afraid?” Horizontal Evil looked at Han Sen with fire in his eyes.
“I might obey God, but I don’t obey self-proclaimed gods like King Jun,” Han Sen answered.
“Haha! Well said. Although you aren’t like me, with disdain for the whole world, at least you are honest.” Horizontal Evil laughed harder than ever.
“If you have some task to ask of me, and it is as dangerous as you say, could you at least explain it?” Han Sen asked Horizontal Evil.
Han Sen wasn’t afraid of being King Jun’s enemy. The gods already hated him, and that wouldn’t change regardless of what Horizontal Evil asked him to do.
In addition, he now wanted to find out where the gods came from and what was going on with Sacred Leader and Horizontal Evil.
Horizontal Evil’s smile disappeared. He looked at Han Sen and said, “Little Brother, I can tell you that this world doesn’t have a god. The self-proclaimed gods are creatures like you and I. The difference is that we are outside the Geno Hall, and they are inside it.”
When Han Sen heard this, he was delighted. He was close to finding out the truth. He didn’t say anything. His eyes widened, begging Horizontal Evil to elaborate. He wanted to hear everything about the gods, so he could learn the truth behind these excruciating mysteries.
Horizontal Evil paused, and then he said, “Although there is just a difference of locale, their powers are indeed greater than ours. Our power can barely damage them, in fact. But there is one power that is the exception to this rule.”
“Super Gene?” Han Sen couldn’t help but ask.
Horizontal Evil thought Han Sen had heard the term through the conversation he last had with King Jun. So, he didn’t think too much about it. He nodded and said, “That is correct. It is Super Gene. Having Super Gene enables you to kill these fake gods.”
“But what is Super Gene?” Han Sen asked.
“There is no answer to what it is.” Horizontal Evil’s answer surprised Han Sen.
“Why is there no answer?” Han Sen asked in confusion.
Horizontal Evil laughed and said, “My good brother took to fighting those gods. We stumbled upon something that was able to hurt them, but hurting them was all we could do. We were never able to kill the gods with it. So, we investigated our discovery and came to the conclusion that it was called Super Gene. We needed our bodies to contain the Super Gene so that we could fight the gods in the Geno Hall and kill them for good.”
Before Han Sen could put a word in, Horizontal Evil went on to say, “I have yet to succeed. So, I cannot tell you the true nature of Super Gene. But there is something that I can give you. With it, you can begin to unravel the truth for yourself. If you are lucky enough, you might be able to find out what Super Gene truly is. If you aren’t lucky, pass it on to others until someone is finally able to learn what Super Gene really is.”
When Han Sen heard this, his body shook. The “good brother” Horizontal Evil mentioned might have been Sacred Leader. Han Sen thought the thing he needed was in Sacred Leader’s hands, but he hadn’t expected Horizontal Evil to actually be in control of the secret. And he was now going to give it to Han Sen.
