Chapter 263 The BUG Usage of the Nonexistent Beast, the Terrifying Divinity Harvest, The Demon's Eye (Two in One)_4
An hour later.
Sky Center, level 1096, an unoccupied corridor, a shadow was moving back and forth on the ceiling.
“This should be it, right here.”
Xue Jing thought to himself.
The greatest distance from him to the Nonexistent Beast was six meters.
This distance should be enough to get through one layer of the ceiling.
However, to be cautious, Xue Jing still wandered around this level, finding the highest point of the ceiling closest to the floor of level 1097, minimizing the possibility of any errors.
Silently, he formed a cluster of Dark Flame, had the Nonexistent Beast swallow it, then crossed the six-meter gap above, and passed through the ceiling, expelling the Dark Flame at the extreme range.
Since it was already out of his line of sight, Xue Jing was not exactly sure of the conditions where the Dark Flame was located.
He only had a rough sense that the Dark Flame had not touched any walls or columns of any kind.
That was enough.
With resolve, Xue Jing used Shadow Leap and arrived at level 1097, emerging from the Dark Flame.
Upon arrival, he did not immediately survey his surroundings but instead, being extremely cautious, instantly had the Nonexistent Beast swallow him whole.
His entire existence vanished from the world in an instant.
…
Level 1097, in a vast laboratory, a short-haired woman dressed in navy blue baseball gear suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were peculiar, with pupils shaped like horizontal bars similar to those of a goat’s, and her sclera was filled with radiating blue lines that twinkled with faint light.
“Sister Kui, what’s wrong?”
A young man, who bore a striking resemblance to Xu Mude, asked curiously beside her.
The woman with goat eyes paused for a moment, shook her head, and said, “No… It’s nothing. Might be a hallucination again.”
The young man expressed concern, “The last test showed your Mutation Rate was almost 50%, and you’ve been having hallucinations frequently… Maybe you should remove those eyes; they’re too much of a burden.”
“Above 50% is the threshold for Mutative Disease…”
The goat-eyed woman named Sister Kui shook her head, “It’s okay, bring me the inhibitor. I’ll take another shot.”
The young man frowned, “In three hours, you’ve already had six injections, well over the prescribed limit. How can you say it’s nothing?”
“Those are the eyes of a demon… That bastard Xu Mude, how could he let you…”
Expressionless, Sister Kui said, “It’s a decision from above. Among those we trust, only I have barely enough compatibility with the Alien Implant to have these eyes installed… There’s no choice. Don’t talk about it anymore. Bring it here.”
The young man sighed, walked over to a nearby table, and opened a box, taking out a milky white syringe.
“Though the direct lineage has many who are more compatible than you…”
Sister Kui took the syringe and said indifferently, “Descendants of the direct lineage won’t have Alien Implants installed… It’s a rule.”
The young man, discontented, said, “What rule? They’re just afraid to die! I’ve already seen countless members of the direct lineage with Alien Implants, especially those related to that thing. Sky Tower K9 costs so much, where do you think the sales come from…”
“Zzt—”
The sound of the air pressure from the syringe injecting into her arm reverberated, and the radiating blue lines in Sister Kui’s demonic eyes slowly faded.
At that moment, her expression became more animated than before as she glared at the young man.
“Don’t talk to me about these things; I don’t understand them!”
…
Level 1097, a dark corner.
In the void, a tiny crack slowly opened, revealing a pair of cold, sharp, silver-white eyes scanning the surroundings.
Xue Jing hid inside the Nonexistent Beast for about ten minutes before he cautiously showed his face.
He scanned the environment to ensure nothing was off before morphing into a mass of shadow, emerging from the invisible crack.
