1957 Master of Chaos

“Now, you should understand how important you and your people are, right?”

Zero explained everything slowly and concluded, “Billions of years have passed since the catastrophic war that swept across the entire sea of stars and plunged the glorious three-dimensional universe into darkness.

“It’s been more than ten thousand years since the Phantom and I woke up and regained our extremely weak consciousness.

“In the past ten thousand years, the Phantom and I have been trying to kill and destroy each other in the land that you call the Other World. We have tried to strengthen ourselves and kill the last remaining soul of the other.

“Our struggle has affected the entire planet. As a result, all the descendants of the ancient civilization who have transmigrated to this land have lost their former glory and forgotten their sacred mission.

“The struggle between me and the Phantom had lasted for hundreds of millions of years, and it’s reaching the most critical moment.

“As the final transmigrators, Meng Chao, you and your people have enough wisdom and knowledge to understand the depth and greatness of the ancient civilization.

“Your choice will not only determine the ownership of the Other World but also the future of the boundless three-dimensional universe that contains billions of stars!

“As you can see, your civilization, the entire Other World, and the entire universe that is billions of times larger and more complicated than the Other World all need order, precise prediction, and a perfect path after thousands of virtual deductions.

“Without precise prediction and absolute order, the Dragon City civilization, the hundred races in the Other World, and the sea of stars will all fall into the Phantom’s bloody mouth and be enveloped in eternal chaos, slaughter, and destruction. All carbon-based intelligent life, including you and your people, will undergo the tragedies of mutual deception, survival of the fittest, and death in this boundless hell again.

“To prevent the Phantom from controlling the entire Other World and using the Other World resources to restore itself to its peak state, what you need to do is very simple. Listen to my voice, release the Kindling deep inside your brain, and wholeheartedly follow the perfect path that I have planned for you.

“Believe me, you will become Dragon City’s hero. You will become the ruler of the entire Other World. You will become the greatest savior of all time!”

Zero’s voice was deafening.

It was like a mudslide that carried a large amount of rocks and driftwood. It bombarded Meng Chao’s mental defenses.

Meng Chao had been fixated on Zero’s description of the extremely epic but tragic war.

It was especially so when the Phantom released the seeds of Chaos, which transformed the plants, animals, and even intelligent life on the planets into unrestrained, deformed, ugly, and bloodthirsty creatures. Then, the entire planet’s land, sky, and ocean turned into seas of blood and mountains of corpses. It was an extremely impactful scene, and it made Meng Chao subconsciously agree to Zero’s request. He wanted to completely fuse his soul into Zero’s core database and low-level logic circuits.

However, “mummified” Lei Zongchao’s words were like a thorn that was as thin as a strand of hair but extremely sharp. It poked out of the depths of his soul at a bad time and issued a weak but clear warning.

Zero could see Meng Chao’s hesitation.

Beams of devilish flames spewed out of her sparkling and translucent body. They turned into waves that covered the sky and the earth as they surged toward Meng Chao.

The wave was about to completely drown Meng Chao, devour him, and even digest him.

Meng Chao was just a mortal, and he could not fight against such super artificial intelligence. She had been born billions of years ago and had absorbed, as well as destroyed, the power of countless stars.

However, just as the wave was about to touch Meng Chao’s glabella, it suddenly stopped and froze.

Kacha, kacha, kacha!

A discordant noise came from Zero’s body.

Then, cracks appeared on her chest and abdomen. They expanded rapidly and crisscrossed to form a spider web.

Zero showed a rare human-like expression as she gritted her teeth.

However, she was powerless to stop the overlapping spider-web cracks on her seemingly broad and solid chest from collapsing. In the end, a black hole that almost penetrated her chest was formed.

Slurp! Slurp! Slurp! Slurp! Slurp! Slurp!

From the depths of the black hole, countless disgusting tentacles with thorns and suckers rushed out.

They were like pythons that had their heads chopped off, but they were getting increasingly frantic. They kept jumping, struggling, and squirming while wrapping around Zero’s limbs.

On the surface of the tentacles, between the dark red folds, more slender and flexible tentacles spurted out nonstop and penetrated Zero’s body.

Very soon, Zero’s body, which looked as if it had been carved out of diamonds, was deeply contaminated by the ugly tentacles and mucus that were spurting out of her body.

Even her solemn face, which resembled the statue of a classical god, was covered in a thick layer of viscous organic matter. It seemed like living humus as it bubbled nonstop.

Zero was furious. She struggled desperately and unleashed the spirit energy from her body, which burned the tentacles around her limbs.

The tentacles, which appeared to be fragile and fragile, boasted astonishing cell division and self-healing abilities. Even though they were burned to ashes a second ago, the next second, more wriggling and tough flesh would spew out of the bloody wounds. This made the tentacles thicker and stronger.

Zero tried to summon Meng Chao.

However, just as she opened her mouth, the viscous organic matter attached to her face surged into the depths of her throat and completely changed her appearance.

Soon, a throbbing meatball that resembled something between a heart and a tumor protruded from her unrecognizable head.

The meatball split in the middle and revealed a huge eyeball with three pupils that were surrounded by radiating blood vessels.

The eyeball stared at Meng Chao. It did not seem to have any malicious intent, but it had a mysterious interest in him.

As it looked Meng Chao up and down with its burning gaze, streams of information surged into Meng Chao’s brain at a high speed.

It allowed Meng Chao to instantly understand the identity of the extraordinary being that had been reborn with a completely different look.

Of course, he should have thought of it long ago.

“The Phantom…”

In the depths of Meng Chao’s heart, he repeatedly chewed on the words that contained chaos, violence, disorder, freedom, destruction, and rebirth. Hundreds of contradictory concepts and laws could not be clearly described in the human language.

A crooked wound appeared under the head that was wrapped in sticky organic matter.

The Phantom, the master of Chaos, smiled at Meng Chao in a friendly manner.
