"These are all coincidences to me…" Angele looked at them quietly. He stood by the door and had many thoughts in mind, but he did not move an inch.
The blood from the dead bodies turned into a small pool on the floor. The smell of the blood permeated the air.
"Kill him!" The two men in black held their handguns in hands and aimed at Angele. Two blue rays landed on the wall behind Angele.
The blue rays left two burnt holes on the white wall.
Angele stood there and flicked his finger. He threw two candies at the men"s hands—the impact interrupted their aiming. The two blue rays missed the target.
Angele caught the chance and rushed at the two a.s.sa.s.sins. He hit them in the chest using his palms. It almost looked like the two a.s.sa.s.sins were hit by a car; their bones broke right away.
*BAM BAM*
The two a.s.sa.s.sins fell to the floor after they landed, and blood spurted out of their mouths. Their rib cages were messed up.
Angele sighed with disappointment. His speed and power were much stronger than other Kung Fu Masters" in this world. He eliminated the two a.s.sa.s.sins without any problem.
He picked up their handguns and shot them in the chests several times so that no one would know that they were killed by Kung Fu. He finished everything and dropped the guns to the floor.
Also, he grabbed the small device that the a.s.sa.s.sin put on the wall.
He walked in the yellow hallway and broke the device into pieces using his hands. He put the remains of the device on the wall and headed back to his cabin.
"Maybe I"m getting closer to the truth of this world…"
He walked back to his own seat and sat down. There were blue light dots flas.h.i.+ng in front of his eyes. He made it look like he was peeking through the window.
*BOOM*
Suddenly, he heard a loud noise from behind. It sounded like something just exploded.
The whole plane started shaking and leaning.
The people in Angele"s cabin were woken up; they had no idea what was happening.
"We need to parachute!" Angele shouted, but his voice was barely audible in the noise.
They realized what was happening and put on their parachutes immediately. Nian and Yu were in shock and they were not moving.
Xiulin and Angele quickly helped them to put on the parachutes.
The flight attendants were probably also killed by the a.s.sa.s.sins. Angele did not see any of them around.
The noise was getting louder and louder. They tried to communicate with each other using hand gestures.
Angele and Yuyin helped Nian and Yu. They made sure that the parachutes were properly put on.
Xiulin opened the door and they started parachuting one after another.
Angele held Nian in arms and was the last one to parachute. He jumped forward and started falling in the night sky.
"Ah!"
Nian was screaming in Angele"s arms; she could barely look down.
Angele suddenly looked at the plane and noticed that it was smoking astern. It was probably a bomb placed by the a.s.sa.s.sins that Angele failed to disarm.
He looked down and found something white hiding in the dark mountains. It was a small base surrounded by trees; he could see people walking among cargos.
Angele opened the parachute with Nian in his arms.
*BAM*
The white parachute quickly stopped them from falling at full speed.
Angele glanced at the forest and the random base. He felt that what he was seeing was not reality.
"Ball of the Four Seasons… Maybe I"ll find the truth after I see the item…" He turned around and looked at the night sky.
There was something green glowing in the sky. It looked like a snake-shaped cloud.
"Green glowing silk… Green glowing silk in the night sky…"
It seemed like the green cloud was called green glowing silk according to Yun Song"s memory.
Angele was checking the surroundings using the biochip; everything just did not seem right.
The white parachute slowly landed in the forest. It looked like a white mushroom.
Angele was still holding Nian in his arms. They were hanging on a tree.
He inhaled deeply and slowly calmed down. Angele"s heart was b.u.mping at full speed.
"What should we do now?" Nian questioned in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
Angele took out a dagger and cut the parachute into pieces. He stepped on the branch and jumped off the tree, landing on the ground with Nian.
The tree was around four meters tall and Angele had no problem landing on the ground.
Nian exhaled deeply after they landed and stared at Angele.
"Senior Brother, what should we do? It"s just like a novel. They sent a.s.sa.s.sins to blow up the plane!"
Angele shook his head and raised his hand. His skin was so pale that it almost looked translucent.
"Don"t worry, let"s find Xiulin first. We should be able to regroup with them soon if I"m not mistaken," Angele spoke in a calm tone. "Follow me." He looked to the left.
He started heading in a random direction. Nian hesitated for a second, and followed after him.
They advanced in the forest; they heard people talking in front several minutes later.
Angele saw white light deep in the forest.
His pupils retracted, but Nian did not notice the change. They quickly walked to the source of the light.
They found a small empty ground with a small helicopter parked on it. The helicopter had a triangular body and looked a bit weird.
Xiulin was tied up by two men in black—they were taking him to the helicopter. Yuyin was lying in a pool of blood. Yu was shot in the right shoulder and left leg. She was still fighting with a bald man.
The place was a mess. There were blood and burnt marks left by guns everywhere. There were also two dead a.s.sa.s.sins. They were killed by the Snake Palm—their faces were severely damaged.
"Teacher! Senior Sister!" Nian shouted. She charged at the bald man kicked the man in the waist.
Angele walked to Yuying and checked his condition. Yuying was already dead.
He stood up slowly with a blank expression on his face. He was not sad or angry, but he still acted like he cared.
*CHI CHI*
Nian was. .h.i.t by two blue rays.
Angele quickly charged at the two a.s.sa.s.sins by the helicopter. They aimed at him quickly with the guns in their hands.
*CHI CHI*
Angele stabbed two metal keys into their throats and killed them right away.
He jumped into the helicopter and put Xiulin down on the ground.
There was blood spurting out of Xiulin"s neck and he could not talk. Xiulin held Angele"s hands tight and wanted to say something, but the only thing coming out of his mouth was the blood. Several seconds later, he pa.s.sed away with his eyes still open.
Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele"s eyes. He checked the pocket on Xiulin"s chest and found a small black leather pouch.
He grabbed the pouch and found an egg-sized crystal orb inside.
"The Ball of the Four Seasons…"
Angele stood up with the crystal orb in hand. He saw that the bald man was trying to escape.
The birthmark on his back was burning hot, but it did not impact Angele at all. He raised the ball and aimed at the bald man.
The crystal orb changed the scene in his sight.
There was no gra.s.s on the ground. The only things he could see were mud and piles of white bones.
The sky was gray, it was the only color he could see. The tall trees were actually stone pillars.
The most disturbing thing was...
The bald man that was escaping was actually a zombie with a rotten body. He would leave a b.l.o.o.d.y footprint on the ground every time it took a step.
"Dad!" Yu screamed in pain.
"Sister!"
She crouched and started crying like crazy.
Angele was not concerned. He turned to Yu and looked at her through the orb.
On the dried land, a naked woman with pale skin was crying on the ground. The left side of her face was covered with white maggots and the right side of her face was just white bones. Yu"s short hair was replaced by some strange green things.
Angele sighed and lowered the Ball of the Four Seasons. Everything he saw became normal again.
"What"s wrong with this world…"
He stood by the aircraft and raised his head. The green glowing silk was moving slowly in the sky. The scene was peaceful and beautiful.
Angele recalled the moment he entered Yun Song"s body; the memory of Yun Song was going through his mind like he was watching a movie.
"Yun!" Yu"s suddenly shouted at Angele.
Angele looked at Yu. She stood up with her eyes filled up with hatred and desperation.
"We must avenge them! We must!"
Angele did not respond. He held the ball in hand, and the birthmark slowly cooled down. He then checked the helicopter using the crystal orb.
The black helicopter turned into a pile of rusty metal. Its gray, rusty body was twisted and cracked.
"Sister, do you know if there"s a Kalong Ruin around?" Angele suddenly asked.
"What do you want to do?" Yu noticed that Angele was extremely calm, which she found strange.
"Just tell me if there"s one. I want to check something…" Angele spoke in a light tone.
"I might be able to save them."
"Are you losing your mind?!" Yu suddenly rushed to Angele and pressed his shoulders.
"Answer me, sister. I can revive them," Angele was still speaking in a calm tone. It almost sounded like reviving dead people was nothing to him.
Yu swallowed and her expression changed.
"Come on, Yun. I know you"re sad, but they already died…"
Angele sighed and tapped on the Ball of Four Seasons slightly.
A red string slowly appeared in the orb. Angele checked the string carefully and started walking in a random direction. Yu stood there and looked at Angele. She had no idea what she should do.
Angele walked as he observed the changes happing in the orb.
He walked into a random ruin. The ruin was full of broken stone pillars and damaged stone houses.
Angele walked around the ruin for a while and slowly stopped in front of a black tomb.
He crouched and wiped the dust off the tomb.
"The Forgotten Realm…" A sentence in the Chaos language was engraved on the tomb.
Angele checked the tomb again through the orb.
The tomb and the sentence did not change at all.
"This place…" Angele wanted to say something, but he decided not to. He stood up and started wandering around again.
He quickly found another tomb.
He crouched and removed the dust.
Countless words were engraved on the tomb; the first was like a prologue.
"The forgotten land, the cursed land, this is the end of the world, this is the end to everything…"
Angele kept reading.
"People remember what they want to remember, but they always know who they really are."
Angele repeated the sentence in mind and suddenly realized something.
"Three years… Three years… That"s enough…"
He stood up, turned around, and quickly disappeared into the forest.
