Chapter 499: The Former Ghosts and the Latter Ghosts
"Prophecy?" Su Chen was taken aback. I asked you a practical question, and you respond with this?
"I''ve never believed in prophecies. They''re all nonsense," Su Chen replied directly.
"I didn''t believe in them either, but when I encountered the first group of former Ghost n members, oh, I named these Ghost n members without Ghost Patterns ''former Ghost n,'' while those with Ghost Patterns are tter Ghost n,''" Libra exined.
Su Chen nodded. This way, it would be easy to distinguish between the two types of Ghost n members. He had to admit that Libra hade up with a good name.
"When the first former Ghost n member saw me, he immediately knelt down and said that I was the leader who would lead the former Ghost n to the pinnacle of life. At first, I thought he might be a bit silly. However, when I saw a picture and a sentence in their tribe, I suddenly realized that prophecies might indeed exist in the world."
"Is the person in the picture you? What was the sentence?" Su Chen furrowed his brow. How could there be a picture of Libra in this world? Libra was a persona he had summoned from the Red Alert system, essentially a civilian version of the Super Soldiers. It was impossible for such a character to exist in this world.
"Commander, you''re indeed clever. The person in the picture is me. The sentence conveys a single message: ''Follow in my footsteps, and they will have the opportunity to bask in the sun once again.''"
Su Chen rubbed his chin. The meaning of that sentence was quite clear. They were to obey Libra''smand. However, what was the origin of this item and phrase? Without waiting for Su Chen to ask, Libra continued, "I also asked them who left these things, but no one knew. It seemed like as soon as they became conscious, these items had already begun circting among the former Ghost n members. Strangely, none of thetter Ghost n members knew about this."
"Did they really entrust all the former Ghost n members to you so easily?" Su Chen found it hard to believe.Even if there were ancestral items involved, it was unlikely that strangers would be trusted so easily. There had to be some process involved.
As expected, Libra exined, "Impressive, Commander. You''ve guessed it. After learning that I might be the one leading them to the surface, a group of old folks appeared. They wanted to test me. At that time, I had just transitioned to my second persona..."
Libra didn''t finish her sentence, but Su Chen immediately had a bad feeling about it.
After a moment, Libra continued, "My second persona has a somewhat quirky personality. She didn''t like those old folks, so she eliminated them directly. It wasn''t just them; she also casually killed tens of thousands of former Ghost n members."
Su Chen''s expression became strange. Killing so many people, it''s no wonder she''s known as the Witch. However, even with these actions, why would the former Ghost n members follow her orders? They should hold a grudge against her. Why did they obey her so willingly?
Su Chen could tell that these former Ghost n members genuinely obeyed Libra''smands from the bottom of their hearts, not just putting on a show.
As she continued, Libra''s tone became somewhat helpless. "This brings us to the second prophecy. After I finally gained control over my body, another former Ghost n member approached me. He showed me a new picture, which featured my second persona''s appearance, and there was also a sentence..."
"If the person from before turns into this person, killing arge number of people, then she will be a unique existence, destined to lead you to greatness!"
Su Chen''s mouth twitched. This was like patching a bug, wasn''t it? The previous prophecy was incorrect, and now there''s another one to make up for it. This kind of operation was truly astonishing.
However, how could ordinary people possibly know about Libra''s dual personalities? More importantly, Libra''s two personas had distinct external appearances, which made it easy to tell which one was dominant at any given moment.
In other words, both prophecies perfectly matched the situations at the time. Moreover, almost all of the most powerful former Ghost n members had perished at Libra''s hands. Regardless of their original intentions, the former Ghost n members had no choice but to rely on Libra.
Libra possessed Psychic powers, and she could sense the goodness or malice in people''s hearts. Once some of the former Ghost n members realized this, they dared not harbor any ill intentions toward Libra. Over time, they had grown ustomed to life under Libra''s leadership.
After Libra gained control of the former Ghost n members, she couldn''t stay there indefinitely. Her next step was to lead the former Ghost n members in facing thetter Ghost n!
"By the way, what''s the situation with the former Ghost n? Why did they abandon their hostility toward humans and instead target thetter Ghost n?" Su Chen couldn''t quite understand. Regardless of the circumstances, they were all Ghost n members. As the saying goes, "People who aren''t of our kind have hearts that are different," so they should have initially focused on attacking humans.
However, the former Ghost n members had gained power, and the first group they targeted was thetter Ghost n. Furthermore, under Libra''smand, they were even willing to assist humans. Such actions were unheard of.
"In the eyes of the former Ghost n members, thetter Ghost n has always been the race that targeted them. They weren''t indoctrinated with animosity toward humans from a young age. In their minds, there was only one thought: to overthrow the rule of thetter Ghost n. They knew that their ancestors had been driven underground by humans, but what caused them to endure years of suffering was thetter Ghost n."
Su Chen understood. The era of their ancestors was far too distant, disconnected from them by countless generations. They couldn''t rte to it at all. However, the actions of thetter Ghost n towards them had made them keenly aware of what discrimination felt like.
No, it wasn''t just discrimination; it was as if they weren''t considered Ghost n members at all by thetter Ghost n!
Outside, whenever a former Ghost n member was discovered, anytter Ghost n member had the right to execute that former Ghost n member on the spot. In the eyes of thetter Ghost n members, the former Ghost n was a group of abnormal beings that shouldn''t exist!
They had forgotten one thing: the appearance of the former Ghost n members was how they originally looked, but their current appearances werepletely different from their ancestors.
As a result, when Libra instructed them to target thetter Ghost n, not a single former Ghost n member refused.
However, Su Chen still had a concern. Ghost Patterns had allowed the Ghost n to evolve as a whole. Why should the former Ghost n, whocked Ghost Patterns, confront thetter Ghost n, who possessed them?
"Commander, you better keep your eyes wide open," Libra teased.
In the footage, after learning the general situation, Su Er and the others chose to believe the words of the former Ghost n members. Subsequently, the former Ghost n members, along with the human alliance,unched a full-scale attack on thetter Ghost n''s army!
At that moment, the former Ghost n members stood in ce, their expressions devout, as if in prayer.
"Go!"
Streams of colorful light descended from the sky,nding in the midst of thetter Ghost n''s army, creating waves of turmoil.
"Damn, is this... Magic?" Su Chen stared wide-eyed.
All along, Su Chen had thought that things like Magic were merely a way to manipte energy. However, it now seemed that Magic might actually exist!
