Chapter 799: Chapter 463: Empathy

Xu Zhi felt like he was going to split apart. The most dangerous situation had really happened to him.

A renegade? He and Mercury Angel really were renegades.

Every Terror Devil had malice towards humans.

This was also the reason why a large number of Terror Devils attacked the Safe Zone at the beginning, as most of them had no reason and acted entirely on instinct.

As a result, the initial losses of the Terror Devils were heavy. It wasn’t until the robot factory evolved some rationality that the situation was barely improved.

And because of Thought Seal and Divine Resonance, Mercury Angel had no malice that a Terror Devil should have.

Naturally, there was no reason to take action against humans.

Therefore, they took advantage of this catastrophe, gathered believers, bred Divinity, and healed the injuries of Mercury Angel’s true body.

The true body of Mercury Angel was once a passenger of the fifth floor of Dream Cruise. It had once ruled over one side of a certain world as a Totem God.

In an accident on the ship, it successfully escaped the Dream Cruise but was severely damaged by the captain in the process.

Luckily, it met several players pursuing strength.

Not only did it manage to survive, but it also established the Heavenly Principle.

Since then, the Believers have deliberately absorbed players and sought opportunities to restore Mercury Angel’s power.

They even took advantage of the aftermath of Yanyun’s incident, half threatening and half cooperating with several player organizations.

The plan was to quietly lure those players into worshiping them during the Guild Tasks.

This was already a very subtle approach, considering the dangers of this world.

In this world, there are quite a few divine existences, such as Solar Halo and Awei Protection Association.

Some are players who have comprehended Divinity, and others are divine creatures from certain worlds. At this moment, they are all hiding under the pressure of the human race, not daring to show their heads.

Mercury Angel was no exception. Even in its prime, it did not dare to appear rashly.

Otherwise, the Great Wall might have staged a scene where they casually cut down a Divinity.

This was the default treaty among divine creatures.

At this moment, Mercury Angel really did not want to miss this opportunity, so it sent Believers into the disaster fog.

The odds of humans defeating Terror Devils were not high, after all, some of the Terror Devils’ abilities were too restraining to humans. Insect swarm, hunger, plague... their mere presence was enough to cause headaches.

If these Terror Devils were not bound by the range of disaster fog, humanity would undoubtedly be defeated.

For example, the Insect Race and the robot factory could have hidden in places where humans could not find them and develop slowly, instead of hiding in this small Yanyun area.

Similarly, the Abyssal Worm; the reason Li Changhe and the others were able to quickly locate it was that the disaster fog had limited the range of the Terror Devils’ movements.

In this regard, both humans and Terror Devils had their advantages.

However, not all humans were determined, and when the final moment came, it would not be difficult to make people believe in Mercury Angel.

When someone is drowning, even a piece of grass can be a lifesaver. Most people would choose to let themselves live.

Four hundred thousand people... no, even if just one hundred thousand people believed in Mercury Angel.

The outside world officials would hold their noses and accept it, and they would do their best to help.

The calculation was excellent, and the officials might have already noticed or already considered Mercury Angel as a backup plan.

Xu Zhi and his companions were looking for Plague Horror now, intending to use its abilities to speed up the process.

They didn’t want humanity to be destroyed, so they naturally had to control the Plague Horror.

Effectively controlling Plague Horror would also allow them to make twice the progress with half the effort.

Moreover, they could intentionally infect a few human Safe Zones.

When humans became increasingly desperate, that would be the moment their plan was set into motion.

In this sense, Mercury Angel and Xu Zhi really seemed like two renegades to the Terror Devils...

Of course, they didn’t seem like good people in the eyes of humans either, more like opportunistic villains. It wouldn’t be too much to say they were a third-party force.

At this moment... The Terror Devils had discovered these renegades and had blocked them accurately.

The four present all held different expressions.

As they looked at each other, the eerie atmosphere became more apparent.

Crying Hero laughed lightly as he revealed their renegade identity, even though he laughed, there was a certain unease that came from his soul.

It was as if he was the embodiment of all twisted and malicious things; merely appearing before outsiders already gave off a terrible sense of oppression.

Of the few people present, the only one who could be considered a human was Xu Zhi.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with tears due to Crying Hero’s ability. Frightened and uneasy, he wanted to speak, but was overwhelmed by the tremendous pressure and the anxiety that came from his physiological instincts.

Even though he had already received the grace of Mercury Angel, he still couldn’t resist the oppression brought by Crying Hero. His body felt as if it was sinking into an abyss and couldn’t move.

The figure in tattered Mountain Pattern Armor seemed to be a more terrifying monster than the one he worshiped, and the Mercury Angel by his side did not give him any sense of security.

As for the Bioroid of the robot factory, its eyes glowed blue as it could not comprehend all this. The malice of Terror Devils towards humans was innate.

Only by completely annihilating humans could the Terror Devils expand the range of the disaster fog until it engulfed the entire world.

On the other hand, humans must eliminate all Terror Devils in order to dispel the disaster fog.

This was an unsolvable deadlock.

After all, the robot factory was rational and efficient. At this moment, it still couldn’t understand why there would be a Terror Devil acting as a renegade.

But now it seemed unusual that this unknown Terror Devil had relations with humans. Moreover, their stealthily evading other Terror Devils and humans and their intention to approach the Plague Horror was highly suspicious.

The Bioroid remained silent, but the blue light in its eyes began to flicker rapidly. It had already started calculating the combat power of the other party.

"General, they are strong, and I estimate this body of mine will soon be scrapped. Please hold them off; my army will arrive shortly." After the Bioroid’s analysis was completed, its wrist twisted to reveal a cannon hole and whispered, "It seems that your analysis was correct. I really need to learn more."

It had already predicted the outcome of the battle, and that this body of its would definitely be scrapped.

After all, this body was not made for combat but for communication and contact with Terror Devils. It has good concealment and mobility, but its frontal combat power is not strong.

It just hoped that during the time its body was scrapped, Crying Hero could resist the other party’s attacks and buy time for the arrival of the robot army.

At the same time, it expressed its admiration. If it weren’t for Crying Hero, the Plague Horror that was being pursued might have been captured by the other party.

"No worries, piece of cake," Crying Hero’s feet stirred in the Black Mud as he confidently responded.

Deducing the actions of the renegades wasn’t a big deal.

After all, from a certain perspective, being a renegade... he was the most empathetic of all.
