Zhou Ping carefully explained the precautions and divided the party into three groups to march in three directions.

Zhou Ping took two of his men and headed due north. Zhou An took two men, and the remaining four were in a group.

Half an hour after they had walked away, a dark figure slowly approached the operating car parked beyond the forest.

Zhou Ping led his two men around the forest. He had walked for almost two hours when he suddenly found something and rushed over.

There was a light footprint on the soil that was still somewhat wet. It looked like a fresh footprint, that is, it had been made about two days ago.

The footprints were deep and shallow, forming a path to guide them.

They were Bai Lixin’s. He had noticed Bai Lixin’s clothes in the image transmitted by the mechanical snake, and his shoe prints would fit exactly this.

Looking at the footprints, where one was deep and the other shallow, he concluded that Bai Lixin’s leg had been injured in some way too. But even though he knew that Bai Lixin was injured, Zhou Ping’s heart was still filled with an instinctive fear as he thought of how close he was to Bai Lixin.

After walking for a long time, they finally saw a body lying prostrate on the ground not far away, seemingly dead.

Zhou Ping cautiously approached, but the figure remained motionless and dead silent.

Finally, Zhou Ping reached the body and kicked it with his feet. He was surprised to find that it was none other than Bai Lixin.

A bad feeling rose in Zhou Ping’s heart as he bent down and put his hand on Bai Lixin’s neck to test it, and he found that there was no pulse.

The man who had shocked the entire planet had died so quietly.…

The man who had once brought him such fear and a psychological shadow was now lying here…

How powerful he once was, how insignificant he is now.

Zhou Ping’s expression slowly cracked, a look of devastation in his eyes.

He drew the sword pinned to his belt and plunged it into Bai Lixin’s chest, pulling it out, plunging it in, pulling it out, and so on for several strokes until he had stabbed Bai Lixin’s body into a sieve.

The hero who had saved the world was now at his mercy, and there was no room for resistance.

With those countless sword stabs, even if he had faked his death, he could not have survived.

It seemed that Bai Lixin was really dead.

“Professor Zhou, this man is dead. He died from the poison in the water…” One of his men saw Zhou Ping’s crazy actions and trembled to speak up.

Zhou Ping dropped to the ground and had a moment of disorientation.

He wanted to capture Bai Lixin not only to avenge that day but also because he wanted to study the power inside him.

Whether it was to capture Bai Lixin’s power or to restore Bai Lixin’s power, as long as there was a force to fight against that God-Emperor, he would have succeeded.

Zhou Ping was a brain ability user and had always thought much further ahead than normal people.

He knew that the world ruled by the God-Emperor in the future would be a real purgatory, a hypocritical kingdom without self.

He was not a good man, but he still had a few feelings for this planet.

So what if he had killed the scientists who had created him, his “parents”? When he first opened his eyes, he saw the endless experiments “his parents” imposed on his “brothers and sisters”.

To stimulate their powers to fight against the zombies, the humans threw them into a confined space and asked them to kill each other.

Even though they were wearing the “sheep’s clothing” of saving the world, they were just a bunch of monkeys who had no abilities but wanted to control them. Therefore, when Zhou Ping and his siblings were strong enough, they killed all the humans for the sake of the future and evolution.

He killed them out of love for the planet, but the God-Emperor wanted to kill them just to build his powerful kingdom.

The God-Emperor did not love this world. He seemed to have more ambitious ideas. Zhou Ping didn’t care about that; he just wanted his planet to be intact.

He had pinned his hopes on Bai Lixin, thinking that he would appear out of thin air and quickly save the world with thunder and lightning, just as he had done over a decade ago.

So what if he was physically weakened? So what if he had lost his power?

He, Zhou Ping, was the smartest artificial in the world, and no matter what means he used, he could surely stir up Bai Lixin’s powers and make him a saviour again.

But reality gave him a blow in the head.

Bai Lixin, the saviour-hero, died like this.

Not on the battlefield, not at the hands of the enemy, but in a patch of water with heavy metal poisons.

The soil and water outside the kingdom of Artificials had long been infected, and even the clearest-looking water was unimaginably poisoned.

The water was so clear that there was not even a trace of plankton.

The artificials could only live in the kingdom even if they were not happy with the God-Emperor’s control because even the plankton that lives on rubbish and sunlight couldn’t survive in this water.

They couldn’t even survive for seven days after leaving the kingdom.

Bai Lixin’s hands were still a little wet, and his already ragged clothes were soaked with blood. He had long since become a bloody mess, and only his face was still vaguely visible.

Zhou Ping threw away the short sword in his hand and wiped his face in dismay. “Take him back to the surgical cart. Also, transmit a signal to the other two groups and tell them to come back. ”

On the surgical cart, two men were standing outside in wait.

Zhou Ping came back, and they hurriedly greeted him, “Professor Zhou.”

Zhou Ping nodded, “Any abnormalities near the car?”

The two men looked at each other and shook their heads, “No, everything is normal. We haven’t seen a single ant since you left. ”

These two men were Zhou Ping’s right-hand men, and Zhou Ping trusted them, “Good then. Go in and pack up. We’re going back to the city. ”

The two men took a look at the tattered corpse carried by the silent two men following Zhou Ping and hurriedly got into the car to prepare to leave.

Half an hour later, Zhou An and the others came back, one after another.

Zhou An wanted to say something when he saw Bai Lixin’s body, but he noticed Zhou Ping’s expression. He looked as if his body had been hollowed out, and he shut his mouth.

The car started slowly, turned a hundred and eighty degrees, and headed back in the direction of the tower.

……

Zhou Ping had just sat in his office for a short while, and had not even had time to change his clothes before someone dressed like the God-Emperor’s personal guard arrived, “Professor Zhou, the God-Emperor, wants to see you.”

Zhou Ping had just lit his cigarette when his hand gave a slight pause, “When?”

“Right now, if there’s nothing else.”

Zhou Ping gave a bitter smile and said, “Wait a moment. Let me finish this cigarette. ”

The guard stood in front of the door with his back straight and his eyes fixed on the front without moving, just like a statue.

Zhou Ping took a deep breath and smoked most of the cigarette, rolling it around in his mouth before exhaling deeply through his nostrils. Only then did he feel a little more relaxed from the bad mood he had just been in.

After two more puffs, his agitation eased off completely.

Zhou Ping stood up after putting out his cigarette in the ashtray and said, “Let’s go, please lead the way.”

As the two men walked, Zhou Ping suddenly saw his close friend, Lu Feng. He was one of the men who had accompanied him out and guarded the car.

He remembered his somewhat cluttered office and he called out to Lu Feng: “Lu Feng.”

Lu Feng seemed a little hesitant and turned his head to look at Zhou Ping.

When he saw who it was, he jerked upright and gave a standard military salute, “Professor Zhou!”

Zhou Ping smiled, “Lu Feng, my office is a bit messy. Go help me clean it up.”

Lu Feng gave a slight pause and scratched his head. “I’m a bit clumsy.”

“The desk hasn’t been wiped since yesterday, and the floor hasn’t been swept either. You’re a bit clumsy, but you can do these menial tasks, right? I’m going to see the God-Emperor, and I hope to see a neat and clean office when I return. ”

Lu Feng gave another salute, “As you wish, Professor Zhou!”

Finishing with Lu Feng, Zhou Ping only followed the personal guard forward again. Lu Feng stood on the side of the corridor and watched the two men out of his sight with a salute before he put his hands down and turned towards Zhou Ping’s office with a hum.

As soon as he entered the office and closed the door behind him, his slightly dull expression changed suddenly. He pulled up one corner of his mouth and showed a sly smile.

[Heh, this bitter trick actually played out. Though I pity my body].

S419M rolled his eyes, [That body is the divine body that Lord Dijia created for you. It won’t be broken; you can just go back later when you have the chance.]

[This pseudo Lord God is really cunning. I thought he was already dead, but he has cunningly come back to life. To even set such a curse on us. If it wasn’t for Dijia, who sensed something was wrong and quickly went to the void to refine the antidote, I’m afraid I would have been finished long ago.]

Bai Lixin remembered the perilous moment when he was almost dying and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

At that time, he and Eros went to the void and searched for six years without success.

Every so often, Eros would cleanse him with his blood. The god of love would always say a word or two about how he was going to die soon, but he would still persist.

Finally, one day, he and Eros sensed that something was wrong and that he was not dying.

In other words, the pseudo Lord God must still be alive.

At that time, Bai Lixin was helpless. He was looking for Dijia, but he couldn’t find him.

The curse was temporarily alleviated, but both he and the god of love were gradually getting weaker.

If he was cursed, wasn’t Dijia also cursed?

He still had Eros to help him, but how about Dijia?

Was Dijia still alive?

The fragile chambers of his heart were stained by worry and he was helpless due to the curse. Bai Lixin was even more vulnerable than usual.

What is the Void?

The Void was a vast space that is even deeper than the vast universe. It not only includes the countless worlds but even Chaos was born from the depths of the Void.

Although he would always go to the void at the end of his missions, it was to a specific location. Even S419M could not explain just how vast the void was and how many times and spaces there were.

Even Bai Lixin, who had always been in a great state of mind, was falling into despair after several bumps in the road. If he had a healthy body, he would have been able to search the void no matter how many years it took.

But he was haunted by a curse. He could wait, but his body could not.

Bai Lixin was getting increasingly weaker, almost to the point of death, when Dijia appeared in front of them out of nowhere like a god.

No, not like a god. Dijia was a god.

The god of the countless worlds – the Lord God of the universe.

Dijia held the dazed Bai Lixin in his arms and led the god of love to his dimension.

“You are really disobedient. I told you to wait for me to return. Why did you run out on your own? ” On the way, Dijia lowered his head and spoke in a low, gentle voice. His dark pool-like eyes were saturated with intense emotion as he stared passionately at Bai Lixin.

………

[Speaking of which, you were bawling when Lord Dijia rescued you. Your eyes were tearful, and your nose was snotty. If I were Lord Dijia, I would have thrown you out long ago.]

Bai Lixin was recalling the sweet moment when S419M abruptly interjected.

Bai Lixin coughed dryly, [That can’t be helped. When love is strong, it is naturally uncontrollable, ahem ahem]

.……

Hearing Dijia’s familiar and kind voice, Bai Lixin immediately began to cry. For the first time in countless years, he hugged Dijia’s waist and cried loudly. After venting out his despair and fears, he found that Dijia had stopped at some point.

They were no longer surrounded by a vast void, but a space full of spring.

Eros stood far away, his eyes drifting their way now and then. His mouth opened to say something, but then he stopped.

Seeing Eros’s uncomfortable look, Bai Lixin reluctantly jumped out of Dijia’s arms and knelt to gently brush the delicate green shoots under his feet with his hand. “Where is this?”

How long had it been since he had seen green in the endless darkness they weaved through?

“This is the transit area that we previously used as a resting place after missions. Only that I’ve decorated it a little.”

“I’ve been looking for you for years.”

“Hey, I’ve also been looking for you for years, baby.”
