Chapter 1264 - 487: Eerie Wave Peak
Hoo~Staring at the terrifying floating giant corpse, Lin Xian’s eyes flickered slightly, and he took a long breath.
This situation was not the first time. When KIKI’s superpower first evolved, he had seen this dreadful scene during KIKI’s spiritual power time. At this moment, Lin Xian was absolutely certain that the towering corpse in the night sky, as majestic as a mountain, was definitely the monster within the high cumulonimbus clouds in Jiang City at that time, where KIKI had her incident in the helicopter.
"Could this thing be the superpower-linked creature with KIKI of the same origin but different sides?"
Lin Xian thought of this hypothesis immediately.
Biological No. 2: Unknown Sky Giant Corpse.
In the Phoenix Society’s Fire Book intelligence, this creature was described like this. Chu Yan had even led a team to investigate, and the effective clue obtained was that this creature could not be approached, as if there existed some extremely terrifying biological force field. Yet, according to the Phoenix Society’s observation report, this creature, defined as a world-class disaster, had remained in a mysterious, unawakened state, apart from its floating movement, like a real humanoid corpse.
Lin Xian was carefully observing the eerie outline of the creature at this moment. A terrifying fluctuation of dark energy radiated from above the sky. Then, he looked around and suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the distance.
KIKI.
She was sitting at the edge of a high-rise building’s outer wall, wearing the coat Lin Xian had saved her in back in Jiang City. Her light purple long hair flowed elegantly with the wind, and her back looked somewhat lonely.
Lin Xian’s gaze softened as he walked over and sat beside her.
"What are you looking at?"
KIKI glanced at him sideways, pointed upward with her finger: "You must have seen it."
"Hard to miss..."
"This is the rooftop I fell from the helicopter that night. When I woke up, I lifted my head and saw this view." KIKI turned to look at Lin Xian, pointed to a direction at a distance: "Look, your house is in that direction. I remember you waving the flag."
Lin Xian nodded and looked around: "So I’ve returned to your spiritual world again. Have you encountered any trouble?"
"A very strange feeling, Lin Xian." KIKI said, "That thing seems to be... communicating with me, but I can’t understand anything."
"Communicating?"
"Yeah."
KIKI lifted her legs and hugged her knees, burying her head in her legs, and said quietly, "If there really is some kind of link between this monster and me, what should I do? It’s not the first time this has happened."
Lin Xian was silent for a moment. He wanted to say something comforting, but he knew it would be of little use to KIKI. She was intelligent and didn’t like being patronized by Lin Xian.
"What else can we do, but get rid of this monster, even if not now, we will find a way later. In the end, isn’t it always about do or die..."
With that, Lin Xian calmly said, "If the link really exists, after killing this monster, you will only lose your superpower, so you don’t need to worry too much."
"But I don’t want to lose my superpower..."
KIKI lifted her head, looking earnestly at Lin Xian: "I want to help you."
Lin Xian was momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
Along the way, thanks to KIKI’s presence, they successfully overcame numerous life-and-death crises, and Lin Xian was already accustomed to having KIKI as an ally. Perhaps to him, KIKI was already more than just a helper.
From when she pretended to be unconscious and snuck into the car, got caught stealing bread by Lin Xian, to the two of them teaming up to take down the Red Slug, escaping Mist Town and leaping over the broken bridge...
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xian could only nonchalantly say, "If we can solve a world-class disaster, perhaps the apocalypse has already receded." He looked over at KIKI, "Or, if we both fail and humanity goes extinct, there would be nothing left to worry about."
KIKI looked peacefully at Lin Xian, then a little cunningly lifted the corners of her lips, her eyes crinkling into crescents, and she said to him,
"Isn’t there a third possibility, like us escaping Blue Star?"
Lin Xian nodded: "True."
"That way, I could always fly~"
Lin Xian chuckled, then took a deep breath, gazing into the darkness: "Perhaps we’ll have a third choice."
"Lin Xian." KIKI called him.
"Yeah."
"Promise me one thing."
"Go on~"
"If someday, we superpower users, because of this link, end up doing something bad, or..." She paused, lightly pursing her lips, "if it needs to be... uh!"
Lin Xian, like pinching a duck’s beak, reached out and pinched her upper and lower lips, speaking boldly, "You’re overthinking it. If killing all the superpower users could solve everything, it’s either that Dark Civilization is too stupid or we’re too dumb. You’ve just played too many video games."
"That’s not what I mean!!" KIKI puffed up in anger, stood up wanting to argue with Lin Xian: "Maybe we could counteract it, do you understand counteraction?"
"Look, that guy seems to want to communicate something with me, don’t you think we should study it?"
"I’ll inform Director Ding, and when we contact the Phoenix Society, we’ll discuss it with Professor Ye." Lin Xian looked at KIKI with concern, grabbing one of her hands: "Your spiritual power is draining, we need to think of a way to wake up; Teacher Chen and the others are very worried about you."
KIKI met Lin Xian’s gaze, paused, then nodded, taking a deep breath to say,
"I can now clearly feel its presence, its trajectory. We have escaped all the way from Jiang City, and this guy’s moving path seems to be the same as ours, so I think it might be tracking me. That dark energy connection was something we hadn’t discovered before, but now it seems like it’s potentially more terrifying than the Dark Mark."
