79: Chapter 78: The Numerology of Destiny, Ever-Changing 79: Chapter 78: The Numerology of Destiny, Ever-Changing Lu Zixun followed this woman named Si Keke all the way to her residence.
Upon entering the room, Lu Zixun saw Si Keke toss herself onto the sofa, light a cigarette, and begin to smoke with a distant look in her eyes.
After wiping his feet on the doormat, Lu Zixun walked inside the house and squatted beside her without saying a word.
Exhaling a ring of smoke, Si Keke turned her head to look at Lu Zixun, “You really followed me here, aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Zixun’s whiskers twitched.
Heavenly Eye had detected that Si Keke was just an ordinary person; otherwise, Lu Zixun certainly wouldn’t have followed her.
In a flat voice, Lu Zixun stretched, feeling utterly exhausted from the day’s events.
Putting out the cigarette, Si Keke chuckled lightly, “Today was supposed to be Yue Sichen’s day of doom, yet it was thwarted by a cat.
Lu Zixun’s mouth twitched in confusion.
What was this talk of doom?
Had things suddenly turned mystical?
Perhaps this woman was a descendant of some infallible diviner.
To such claims, Lu Zixun was always disdainful.
They were as unreliable as those fortune-tellers under the bridges.
Seeing the look of contempt in Lu Zixun’s eyes, Si Keke raised an eyebrow, “Or what do you think?
Why do you think I appeared at Yuesha Group today, and the timing was so coincidental?”
Licking his paw, Lu Zixun looked up at Si Keke, “I’m not interested in these matters.
I just want to know, what exactly is Crimson Land?”
“What do you think of the world as it is now?”
Instead of responding to Lu Zixun’s question, Si Keke stood up from the sofa and walked towards the balcony.
Not understanding what Si Keke meant, Lu Zixun also stood up and followed her.
His expression was filled with confusion, “The world isn’t too bad.”
Si Keke said with a half-smile, opening the door to the balcony.
What came into view wasn’t the night scene of Chunhua City.
Instead, it was a landscape of desolation, with bodies strewn everywhere and the entire world engulfed in flames.
Seeing this spectacle, Lu Zixun’s mouth opened unconsciously, “What kind of technology is this?
It’s quite realistic.”
Repeating Lu Zixun’s words, Si Keke chuckled lightly, “If you knew this is the world three years from now, would you still think it’s just special effects?”
Lu Zixun looked up at Si Keke, with a look of surprise.
He thought this woman might not be quite right in the head.
She raised her hand and waved it towards the front, and the previous scene vanished.
The bustling night scene of Chunhua City appeared before Lu Zixun’s eyes.
Si Keke looked at this scene with her hands behind her back, her eyes full of lament, “Abnormal Creatures have appeared in this world, don’t you want to know why?”
Licking his paw casually, Lu Zixun said nonchalantly, “I’m not some savior, why should I care about that?
I just want to know what’s going on with Crimson Land.”
“Also, what happened to Yue Sichen.
If possible, can you introduce yourself?”
Hearing Lu Zixun’s words, Si Keke looked down in surprise at Lu Zixun, who was grooming himself, her face showing a very complicated expression.
“You’re quite an interesting cat.”
“Ding—Interest Value +500 detected from Si Keke.”
After uttering that thoughtful sentence, Si Keke began to explain to Lu Zixun.
The Crimson Land was a place that accommodated the existence of creatures with strength above that of King-level.
Of course, there was another explanation for the Crimson Land, which was that it served as a protector of humans.
“Why would it be a protector of humans?”
Lu Zixun was filled with suspicion regarding Si Keke’s statement.
Closing the balcony door, Si Keke turned around to fetch two cartons of milk from the fridge.
After tossing one to Lu Zixun, she continued, “Because it’s all too easy for Abnormal Creatures to advance.
They need not undergo arduous cultivation or require any divine treasures; they simply need to consume humans to enhance their strength.
She paused for a moment.
Si Keke took a sip of milk: “The existence of Abnormal Creatures above King-level is uncountable.”
Hearing this, Lu Zixun drew a sharp breath.
If what Si Keke was saying was true, then mankind’s current predicament was far from as manageable as Lu Zixun had imagined.
However, Lu Zixun had another question that puzzled him even more:
How did the Crimson Land come into being?
How could there be an invitation to the Crimson Land in the system lottery?
“The emergence of Abnormal Creatures is meant for the slaughter of the human race, of course, though there are exceptions.
Among the Abnormal Creatures, there exist beings as peculiar as anomalies.”
After burping, Si Keke disposed of the empty milk carton: “Yue Sichen is such an anomaly.”
“As a Queen-level being, she actually refrains from slaughtering humans, preferring not to advance to King-level and to live in this world as a human.
Tell me, isn’t that peculiar?”
Swallowing the milk in his mouth, Lu Zixun looked up at Si Keke, who had just spoken.
At this moment, Si Keke’s eyes were filled with an emotion that Lu Zixun couldn’t comprehend.
Was it sadness, or regret?
“And today, I truly had foreseen this moment, but the numerology of fate is ever-changing.”
With a self-deprecating laugh, Si Keke shook her head helplessly: “Just when I was about to make my move, fate began to change, as if some other variable altered Yue Sichen’s future destiny.
At this point, Lu Zixun frowned in displeasure.
Now he understood Si Keke’s identity.
Although the Heavenly Eye had detected her as an ordinary person, Si Keke must be one of those clairvoyant beings, a Fate Master?
That’s what sto calls these people.
Lu Zixun hated listening to them speak.
They talked in a vague and grandiose manner.
But after giving it some thought, he realized they were actually saying nothing at all, just leaving you to guess.
With a flick of his paw, he swiped the milk carton into the trash, and with a flick of his tail, he was ready to leave.
Incomprehensible and uninteresting.
The next moment, the sound of clapping came from the balcony.
With a sinister tone, Lu Zixun’s hackles raised instantly.
Yunyang stepped out, smiling at Si Keke, bowing slightly: “Respected Lord Si, I wonder…
have you foreseen your own fate that follows?”
Eyeing Yunyang warily, Si Keke took two steps back.
Her body pressed tightly against the cold wall as if seeking a sense of safety.
“Ding—Killing Intent Value +2000 detected from Yunyang.”
Seeing Yunyang’s glance sweep over, Lu Zixun turned and ran.
In the next moment, a fierce killing intent emerged behind Lu Zixun.
