NOVEL WEB Chapter 651 Ah Yue
"I do not want."
Jiang You refused simply.
The high priest took out a thick stack of IOUs and lit them on the candle, "You keep the Black Flame Heart for me, and the crystal core you owed me before will be written off."
Jiang You smiled, "I didn't plan to pay it back in the first place. You've burned the IOU, and I won't even admit it. Tsk~"
She clapped her hands and stood up to leave, "Since you're not dead yet, I've given you my condolences. There are still many things going on at Longshan Mountain, so I'll leave first."
"Jiang You, after opening the entrance to the abyss, both the Hope Base and City No. 9 are destined to stand on your opposite side. By then, Tingfeng City will be like a mantis trying to control a chariot, and its destruction is almost an unchangeable fate."
He slowly closed his eyes and his voice was deep.
"The Dawn Tower is different. Our strength comes from the same place, and we are the strongest allies.
If you help me keep the Heart of Black Flame, I can promise you one thing.
I promise you, except for the previous write-off, I will use my ability to predict three things for you.
How about this condition? "
The high priest swallowed back the cough that was about to break out of his throat, his dark eyes staring directly at the woman in front of him through the silver mask.
Jiang You's appearance at this moment reminded her of another cruel and cunning fox.
Once upon a time, she stood before him so vividly, lightly tearing apart his original beliefs.
He once thought that the fox would accompany him to the end, but who knew...
It turns out that in the eyes of the fox, the rabbit is just part of the recipe.
"You look like one."
"Nonsense, I don't look like a human being but can I still look like a god? I'm not a yellow-skinned person."
Jiang You rolled his eyes at him and suppressed the high priest's sadness with one sentence.
"To be honest, I'm quite excited about your conditions. But..."
"but what?"
Jiang You, "There's something I can't figure out. You first asked Yue Yue to pretend to betray you and deliver the Heart of Black Flame to me. The plan failed, and now you go straight to the point and hand it over to me personally.
You must send the Heart of Black Flame to me.
why?
I want to know the reason. "
"I said that my ability is prediction, and to a certain extent, I can also predict things.
But the fragments I saw were incomplete, so I don’t know the cause and effect.
I need to open the abyss, but I can't find the way. "
"Your ability comes from the abyss, but you say you can't open the abyss. Isn't this contradictory?"
Jiang You said coldly, "If you can't open the abyss, how did you enter it and gain power before? Do you think I'm a fool?"
"No, I didn't lie to you."
High Priest, "The bald man you brought has an extraordinary background. He must have told you about the origin of my power.
I can copy your abilities from the abyssal species to humans through the heart of black flames, but while possessing power, the person endowed with energy will also begin to be eroded by the black flames. Once the number of times the energy is used reaches the upper limit, it will be assimilated by the black flames. .
When I was able to obtain abyssal matter, it was not because I entered the abyss.
But someone provided me with these things. "
"who is it?"
"It's Ah Yue."
The high priest's voice was filled with infinite nostalgia.
Suddenly, I was interested in the Ah Yue he mentioned. From the name, she was a woman.
"She said her name was Ah Yue, and when I met her, I was being chased by a group of people.
It was only after the end of the world that I learned that when human hunger reaches its limit, it will lose its rationality and become beasts again.
Those people were so hungry that they began to eat humans. First they ate the carrion of zombies. Later, after discovering that the carrion of zombies was inedible and carried corpse poison, they turned their attention to the same kind of people.
It first eats the weak and injured companions, and then sets its sights on passers-by.
I went out to find food, but I didn't expect that I almost became food.
It was at that time that I met Ah Yue.
She said she didn't like her original name. She liked the moonlight, so she called her Ayue. "
"She just stood there and waved her hand lightly, and those people left as if they couldn't see us.
It was she who gave me the Heart of Black Flame, and it was she who accompanied me step by step in building the Tower of Dawn. "
"She is very special and always has strange thoughts in her mind. She said there is nothing wrong with eating people, just like animals, they will not waste any protein when they are extremely hungry.
She couldn't kill the pride of lions out of pity for a preyed rabbit.
Nature is fair and the food chain must circulate. "
"I asked her why she saved me, and she said it was because at a certain moment, she softened towards the rabbit, so she drove away the lions."
"As the Dawn Tower gets bigger and bigger, Ah Yue spends more and more time out. I can feel that she is leaving, but no one can stop her."
"She said humanity is facing a catastrophe."
"I thought she was talking about the end of the world, but I later found out that wasn't the case."
Having said this, the high priest looked at Jiang You, his eyes filled with suppressed emotions.
He asked Jiang You, "I saw fragments about the future, so I knew why Ah Yue left."
"What did you see?" Jiang You asked.
"Destruction, complete destruction..." The high priest's voice was cold.
"Zombies were just the beginning. I saw countless debris, large volcanoes erupting, landslides, plate tectonic collisions, sea levels surging wildly, and the whole world seemed to explode.
Then, it was a brand new continent, and all the blocks were connected together to form a continent full of terrifying ravines and countless monsters.
Full of monsters and aliens.
The dark eyes are drowned by the waves and will never see the next dawn. "
"What does this have to do with you finding the abyss?"
Jiang You thought for a while and asked, "Is it possible that you want to use the Heart of Black Flame to replicate abilities for all mankind? It's simply fantastic."
"No, as long as the abyss is opened and the breath of the abyss is completely diffused to the ground, we will complete a new self-evolution.
Only by evolving more powerful can you drive away aliens and monsters with your butcher knife. "
"Do you know about the Cambrian?"
The high priest suddenly asked.
Jiang You, “I’ve heard of it, but I don’t know much about it.”
High Priest, "According to data, almost all major biological groups occurred in the Cambrian period about 500 million years ago. In just a few million years, life experienced a spurt of development. This is the so-called Cambrian explosion of life. .
Many people think that this period is just the imagination of a bunch of scientific geeks, but there are also many people who believe that the Cambrian period really existed. "
Jiang You didn't know why he suddenly started to talk to him about science, but he did not interrupt his narration with a wink.
Listening to the high priest's words, she always felt that something was about to come out.
"Jiang You, what do you think?"
"I think you've laid out a little too much, so let's get to the point quickly," Jiang You said.
