Warlord

Chapter 179

She finally understood why she felt so familiar with this youth. It was because of those eyes. They were the same eyes as the young man"s, and it was also because of what he had just said.

Monnie had sung only for Behemoth; she had never even heard zero. So it seemed impossible, but it was indeed only Bessimos who met all the requirements. However, it was difficult for Monnie to connect that mountain-sized beast with the youngster who looked like her age.

"I... "Gillotine..." The youth clenched his teeth and said, "That name... "I hate it..."

But Monnie said happily, "It"s really you, Bey. No, Gillotine. I thought you were home. "

The young man, Zerutan, quieted down when he heard that. His beast eyes revealed a faint sadness as he said, "This place …. Not knowing him, not being able to find the way … I only recognize you. "

Seemingly because he had some communication with Monnie, Zerutan"s speech became smoother and smoother. Monnie understood from his words that the Zerutan seemed to be similar to the residents of t.i.tan City, belonging to the mutated region. But there was something different about it. It seemed that in the life of the Gelutan, the wild beast had lasted longer than the human form. Monnie could faintly guess that it had something to do with the young man"s living environment.

The adventurer had once said that the Gelutan came from the Southwest, a land of danger and death. In order to survive in that land, natural wild beasts had a much greater advantage over humans. The Zerutan was captured when it appeared in the form of a wild beast, and it maintained this form for a long time. After t.i.tan City gained its freedom and was unable to find its way home, Zerutan could only silently follow Monnie.

This time, they travelled all the way from t.i.tan City to Shadow Capital. In order not to be discovered, the Zerutan who crossed the Shadow Capital"s cordon from the sky switched back to human form from the beast form, merging into the city"s crowd.

"So you have already been in Shadow City for two or three days?" Monnie asked curiously, "Then where do you usually live?"

The youth stepped on the ground and succinctly said, "Next."

"Below?" Mony suddenly covered her mouth and said, "You mean the underground pa.s.sage?"

Zerutan nodded and said, "There. Silence …. It was … "Cold..."

Monnie"s nose twitched, as if she had seen her own past with this young man. She took his hand and said, "Come on, you come back to the hotel with me. Although the room is a bit crowded, it won"t get cold. "

The youth hesitated for a moment before finally nodding in agreement. He couldn"t find his way home, and the reason he wanted to stay with Monnie was because the song Monnie sang for him on that night in the warehouse made him feel like he was back home. Although it was only a vague feeling, the boy still felt that staying by Monnie"s side was closer to his hometown.

For Gillotine, in this dark world, Monnie was a warm light.

And Monnie didn"t know that at that moment, she had planted in her heart the belief that she was going to help Zerutan get home. She felt closer to him than to anyone else, even when he was Behemoth. Because she and he were both looking for people from the past!

It was almost noon by the time Monnie and Zerutan entered the hotel, but they b.u.mped into someone. She quickly retreated, only to see this clan member in front of her wearing a cloak with a hat. He covered most of his face with a scarf, only one eye peeking out from under the brim of his hat.

Although it was very faint, Monnie could still smell the obscure smell of blood on his body. This person gave off an aura that made Monnie feel oppressed and uncomfortable. Many years later, Monnie knew that it was called a deathly aura.

Only those who crawled out from a pile of dead people would be infected by this kind of aura. Normally, those who emitted this kind of aura were extremely dangerous.

Zerutan instinctively sensed danger from the man, and the boy quickly pulled Monnie behind him. His hair stood on end and his mouth emitted a beast-like growl. His pupils also constantly contracted and expanded. The genetic sequences were rearranged within the body of the Zerutan. The dangerous information on the person before his eyes stimulated him to switch from a human to a beast.

"Oh, Monnie, who is he?"

Unexpectedly, this person discovered a low but familiar voice. Then he pulled the scarf from his face and took off his hood, and the other golden eye appeared in their eyes.

"Zero?" Monnie cried out in delight, "You"re back!"

Zero nodded. After killing Saurun, he had also set up many suspicious formations in order to avoid the presence of those with Sensory Perception Domain. It was only yesterday that the feeling of being watched disappeared, and only then did Zero dare to travel at full speed. Although there were a few small settlements behind Windmill Town, they were far from the coastline, so Zero decided to go to Shadow Capital first. Although Atasha"s ability was not bad, she was not as clever as Monnie. Zero believed that with Monnie"s intelligence, she would definitely choose a city with a clear target, waiting to meet up with him.

However, to Zero"s surprise, there was a special youth by Monnie"s side. This caused Su Bai to sigh in admiration. In just a few days, Monnie had already turned in her little boyfriend.

Zero stood in the bathroom. He had taken off his clothes, but nearly eighty percent of his body was still covered with bandages. In Windmill he had escaped the explosion that Sauron had designed, but he was still burned by the heat. It had already been four days, and from the itchy feeling coming from the skin under the bandages, it seemed like his injuries had almost healed.

He undid the bandages, and as the ash-yellow bandages unwound, a charred body was revealed in the bathroom mirror. The skin on the surface of the body appeared to be carbonized, but beneath these dead skin, there was a new, faintly pink skin.

Zero turned on the water source for the bath. Warm water with trace amounts of radiation gently sprinkled down. They quickly flowed all over his body. After being washed by the water, his charred skin made a slight cracking sound and actually cracked open. As if some kind of animal had shed its outer layer of skin, the carbonized layer of skin broke into countless pieces of water, which washed it to zero and turned it into black sewage, which then flowed into the drain and disappeared without a trace.

In the mirror, a layer of skin as tender as a newborn baby grew from where the dead skin had been removed. Strangely, after the constant fighting, Zero could feel that the fibers on his skin were tighter. This meant that the toughness of the skin had been enhanced, allowing Zero to be able to defend against attacks and damage. Especially after experiencing the battle between Sauron and the explosion, this layer of skin automatically strengthened its resistance to fire. It indicated that Zero had taken another small step on the path of evolution.

With his eyes closed, he could feel the vigorous vitality released by every cell in his body. The physical recovery ability that he had obtained from breaking through the cells in Hans" blood and duplicating it was already present. Although it was not at the level of the ability to regenerate at supersonic speeds in the field of combat, the regenerative ability of zero possessed a certain level of intelligence. Through the feedback of the damaged data on his body, he would regenerate and strengthen a certain aspect of his defense. This made Zero wonder, when this ability evolved to its peak, would he be able to have an undying body?

As he looked inside himself, Zero suddenly saw a man"s face. It was a man with long silver hair, and he had a face that could be considered pretty. The face did not exist in Zero"s memory center. In other words, it was not someone that he thought of, but someone who projected his image directly into Zero"s mind.

Zero immediately opened his eyes, and a feeling of extreme danger swept over him like a sharp blade.
