Chapter 241 You are the beasts

Shigure looked at Tsubaki, who gave him a rather cute smile and stared straight at him.

I'd rather believe in the Dao of Sitting in Oblivion than in you.

Chun pouted, her face full of unhappiness.

At this moment, Ye Xue, who had been expressionless, suddenly spoke.

"We can cooperate."

"Our mission is to rescue a group of people, and your mission is also to rescue people, but you also have to destroy a celestial computer."

"We've searched the entire capital. There's a huge number of mechanized soldiers. You definitely can't handle them all by yourself."

"With the Royal Flush, taking down Eden shouldn't be too difficult for you, while we'll hold off the pursuers trying to enter Tianhua Group from the outside."

"After it's done, we'll go our separate ways."

Upon hearing Ye Xue's words, Shi Yu suddenly fell silent, while Kuang Lei and Cang Li were already prepared to take action.

Shi Yu suddenly stood up, placed a protective barrier on the hunters, and then spoke.

"Let's go."

"I never imagined that one day I would be able to cooperate with someone from another world."

After saying that, Shigure led the way toward the headquarters of Tianhua Group, and Chun cheered and followed behind Shigure.

Gu Nian wore an expression of self-righteousness, and then followed Shi Yu with the remaining members of the otherworldly beings.

……

The five people, led by Shi Yu, felt somewhat troubled by the dense swarm of locust soldiers in front of the Tianhua Group headquarters. Gu Nian, on the other hand, picked up Shi Yu and flew up with him.

The soldiers below instantly spotted Gu Nian and Shi Yu flying in the sky and opened fire on them.

But after a few quick shifts in position, Gu Qing dodged all the bullets. He then used his strength to clear a small area in front of Tianhua Group before giving Shi Yu a hard shove.

"Hurry up and go inside, we might not be able to hold you off for long."

"As long as that celestial computer is destroyed, all Eden believers using virtual avatars will be destroyed. It must be done quickly."

"More big guys will be coming later, so we need to finish this quickly."

Upon hearing Gu Nian's words, Shi Yu activated the King of Spades with Gu Nian's push, instantly transforming into a golden bolt of lightning and disappearing from the scene.

With the red tear in his hand, Gu Nian easily wiped out a large swarm of locust soldiers with a few light slashes.

At this moment, Gu Nian looked at the ten believers who had appeared out of thin air in front of him, stuck the Tears of Worship into the ground beside him, and let the wind blow his clothes around him.

"Get out of the way, human."

"No, you are the humans. I am no longer human."

"The paradise Eden spoke of will soon open; do not stop us."

Arthur stepped forward, pointing his weapon at Gu Nian.

"Amusement park? You guys actually believe in that stuff?"

Gu Nian burst out laughing, then pulled the Bai Lei planted in the ground and held it in his hand.

"That world is a fake world; everything in it is just a virtual world created by that celestial computer."

"If what I wrote in my script is correct, you believers should connect your consciousness to a private network channel through some special thing, and then use nanobots to construct your bodies and create your own virtual avatars, right?"

"What do you want to do?"

Arthur gripped his weapon tightly, realizing that something was amiss.

Gu Qing smiled disdainfully, raised the Tear of the Goddess in his hand, and pointed it directly at Arthur.

"Didn't you realize that the amusement park was such a fake thing?"

"You guys probably log off for a while every day to replenish your physical energy, drink water, and use the restroom, right?"

"Use your rusty pig brains to think about what would happen if your consciousness actually entered that paradise world?"

Meanwhile, some of the more astute believers behind them already knew what Gu Nian was talking about and began to stir.

Having realized that Arthur was a devout follower of Eden, Gu Nian wanted to undermine their fighting strength by undermining their faith, so he hurriedly spoke up.

"Don't listen to him!"

"Lord Eden said he would lead all of us, his followers, into that true paradise, a world without pain but only joy."

"He's lying. Once our consciousness truly enters that paradise world, we will be completely freed from that suffering body and can have a brand new start."

"What's there to miss about this disgusting and inhuman world? Isn't reality cruel enough?"

"Wouldn't it be better to sacrifice this cruel reality to that new world, and then all live happily there?"

"Wait, something's not right~"

At this moment, a wisp of black smoke suddenly appeared to Gu Nian's right, and then Chun, holding a sickle, walked out of the black smoke.

Chun looked at Arthur, her eyes full of mockery as she spoke to her prey.

"You should be the ones who were sacrificed."

"You are the most disgusting and despicable creatures, worse than pigs and dogs."

"No matter what, we would never lay a hand on children. We are fundamentally different from you."

The believer, Renee, looked at the two of them and raised the gun in her hand.

"What can the two of you do?"

Gu Nian smiled, and then a petite black-haired girl walked out from Gu Nian's left.

The little girl's face remained expressionless, her expression cold and indifferent.

"To put it bluntly, you are just a bunch of rabble who gathered together to start a riot."

"Unhappy in real life and unable to find a sense of existence online, they can only resort to such despicable means to prove their existence."

"Let me tell you something else: if this world is really destroyed, only Eden will be able to enter that so-called paradise."

Ye Xue also took out her spear and pointed it at the crowd in front of her.

"He is not human in the true sense. He uploaded his consciousness to that celestial computer long ago and abandoned his human body to become what he is now."

"And you are just a bunch of fools being used as pawns by him."

"Shut up!"

Once her defenses were broken, Renee fired several shots at Ye Xue, while Gu Nian stepped to the left and unleashed a series of slashes with his Tear of the Goddess, shattering the bullets into countless fragments.

"Look, you've gotten all worked up over just a few words!"

"He really is a fool who was used as a pawn."

Chun, wielding a sickle, shattered several of the fired bullets and stood beside Gu Nian.

Completely broken down, Arthur ordered his men to fire at the three men, who managed to deflect all the bullets with their own weapons.

Countless locust soldiers wielding melee weapons rushed forward, launching a coordinated attack on the three.
