Chapter 130 - The Institute (END)

Roll!–

There was a brief moment of suffocating silence inside his head. Then a low chuckle faintly appeared, it was hoarse and dull but carried with it an inexplicable cold chill. The paranoia and obsession that laced his heart were like a sweet poison, although he knew it would hurt, he still chased that addicting sweetness.

"Chu Yi."

"Chu Yi."

"Chu Yi."

The merman's brows furrowed as if was enduring a type of pain, the red flush that appeared on the white torso and traveled up to his cheeks resembled a thin layer of red cinnabar lightly traced along the thin lines of his body. The merman tail fluttered slightly, the black roses that made a soft bed beneath him seemed to cry out vaguely and slowly coiled around his body. 

Chu Yi's expression was alienated and unpredictable, and his lips still wore a smile. He seemed to be very satisfied with the chaos he had caused, and he seemed to be showing scorn and sarcasm at something far and distant. The voice paused and whispered something lowly as if carefully cherishing every syllable, but Chu Yi could not discern the meaning.

With a final chuckle, the voice disappeared.

Everything stopped.

The whip that R89 held in his hands paused unnaturally in its final swing. He seemed to realize something and gazed down at Chu Yi incredulously before swinging his head violently to the side to look at the blank screen situated in the middle of the room. Now it only showed one thing, 

[Transfer complete.]

His pupils trembled slightly and he turned back. Looking at the merman lying on the roses beneath him, he couldn't help but laugh mirthlessly "Chu Yi...Chu Yi....you prepared a big surprise for me didn't you."

No one answered but in those glaring red pupils, he seemed to see a sly and mocking emotion hidden in the depths of his eyes. R89 shook his head slightly, and laughed "It seems that I can only admit defeat." 

He was very unwilling in his heart, but the one hour that the system had given for the final scene was already up and he didn't have the power to fight against it. However, he could still leave Chu Yi one last gift.

In Chu Yi's eyes, the man suddenly let out a strange grin and stepped back. In the next second a system notification appeared in his mind.

[Player Chu Yi has been marked as the exclusive upgraded version of the original experiment codenamed 'Black cat' therefore the player has been granted access to the High-Level derivative Copy 'The Federation'. The player will be forcibly entered upon the players' graduation to Official. The plot point where the player will originate will not be determined by the system.]

R89 stepped back, grinned happily, and disappeared before Chu Yi could react. He was looking forward to seeing him again. 

The muscles under Chu Yi's body were like a bow that was pulled to the maximum extent, and his expressionless face was like a deep pool of water, unable to stir a single ripple.

No one could see that in the depths of those dark and gloomy eyes, there was an almost maddening calm. His pupils tightened due to extreme excitement and stimulation, and his nose was slightly widened like a hunting dog smelling blood.

He was indulged in a state of frenzied excitement, his finger bones rattled with force, and sharp white tiger teeth appeared from the corners of his slightly raised lips, like a beast that had found its newest prey.

The room fell into a depressing silence.

His eyes shifted slightly and Tang Shun appeared above him, on his back lay an unconscious Chao Bin. Tang Shun had turned to a bright yellow and Chu Yi could sense the cold anger billowing off his body in waves.

"Mu Fang?"

Tang Shun nodded slightly and threw something into his hands. A syringe. The syringe had been filled with the contents of the bottle he had given Chao Bin.

"Do you need my help?"

Chu Yi shook his head and smirked dangerously.

Tang Shun stared down at the beautiful red merman for a moment before looking away, "Ok." There was no need for further conversation. 

He couldn't interfere.

This was Chu Yi's game.

He tightly grasped Chao Bin on his back and walked away, stepping over the sea of vines."Good luck."

Chu Yi's hoarse laugh came from behind him as if spurring the phrase, only the silence remained.

Chu Yi looked towards the void, the sticky and malicious stare had never left him as if it waiting for something. For him.

Chu Yi's grin widened "Suddenly, I'm willing to sacrifice myself to you..." 

"Siren."

Before Chu Yi could regain his senses, someone instantly appeared in the empty room. The man's hot and aggressive aura surged forward like a thunderous waterfall, a suffocating and fatal sense of oppression, wrapping and squeezing every inch of air, and arrogantly encroaching on all his sensory perceptions.

The eyes that looked at him were cold and crazy, "You can't regret it."

His waist was firmly clasped by the strong arm like steel pouring, and the severe pain that crushed his skeletal muscles roared like a landslide and tsunami. The hot and dry palm of the man pressed tightly onto his throat and then eased. Before slowly tightening again, pushing out the remaining oxygen in his lungs little by little, giving him the illusion that he was about to suffocate.

A sharp-clawed hand slowly lifted, tracing along with the chest heaving like a dying bird and slowly pierced into his skin.

In the silent yet chaotic room, the thin young man seemed to melt into the darkness behind him. His chest was pierced, and the red blood poured from the slick mouth, flowing down like a ribbon on the ground. Converging into beautiful streams and lakes.

The scarlet eyes rolled with violent anger in the depths, like a beast that was touched by the scales, the pure and terrible madness set off a huge wave, and the sharp fangs flashed with a cold and cruel light, shouting with an astonishing bloodthirsty impulse. 

Those cruel eyes started with an indifferent and ruthless obsession. Blood fell from Chu Yi's side to mix with the black roses. Chu Yi felt a cold chill enter his body and his head turned strenuously to see that the merman was forcefully stuffing a pearl inside his chest. Cold fingers dug through his flesh, blood spurting in waves as the pearl was placed lightly next to his beating heart.

Chu Yi threw his head back heavily, the alternating feeling of hot and cold drove him crazy, tears fell from hot eyes slowly dripping from his face to mix with the blood beneath him.

The merman's eyes dilated sharply but the hand that dug into his skin did not stop. He couldn't let go, he really couldn't let go.

When the hands withdrew from Chu Yi, they were fully covered in blood. Only the sound of heavy and harsh breathing filled the air. Slowly the merman lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss onto the wound.

Miraculously the flesh started to heal, pulling together to close around the still-beating heart, and the pearl now permanently merged with his body, leaving only a layer of blood on the thin white chest. Chu Yi didn't speak but a subtle laugh suddenly bubbled in his throat, like crying and like laughing, when his hands withdrew from his face, eyes still stained with tears looked at the man before him.

His lips stretched into a bloody grin and he laughed. The merman stared at him for a moment, before inexplicably lowering his head and buried his head beside Chu Yi's neck. One hand pinched the black-haired youth's chin and circled his neck. The swan-like neck is slender, and the skin exudes a radiant and clean light but now it had been bruised by strong hands.

Droplets of tears slid down the side of his neck, running down trails of ambiguous and damp water. The merman looked gloomily for a few seconds, before suddenly opening his lips and licking the watermark.

Chu Yi's body trembled slightly and he raised a hand as if to push him away but in the next instant, the merman sealed his lips ruthlessly.

His lips and tongue were bullied fiercely again. The hand behind his neck moved forcefully, and he was pulled even deeper into him. The merman's posture was strong, and couldn't be rejected. Chu Yi laughed slightly and seemed to want to pull the merman closer but his red eyes only flashed cruelly.

In the next second, a cold injection suddenly slipped out of Chu Yi's hand. The steel needle briefly flashed with a ruthless cold light under the dim light of the room, and without warning, Chu Yi twisted his wrist and pierced the sharp needle into the skin behind the merman's neck. The action was ruthless and decisive, without any hesitation or nervousness, he pressed the syringe firmly.

The transparent and colorless liquid was injected into his body in an instant.

The merman opened his eyes abruptly, his handsome face flushed with an expression of anger and desperation after being deceived, and he began to struggle violently. 

A violent fear struck his heart, a fear he was all too familiar with.

Chu Yi let the syringe fall back, his eyes drooping slightly, his expression was gentle and indifferent, he pressed against the opponent's ear and murmured:

"Shh."

In Chu Yi's chaotic red eyes, the merman's figure disappeared rapidly. Leaving only him to lie in a bed of black roses like a beautiful God that had been abandoned as the world came crashing down beside him. 

On his chest, a strange red pattern appeared.

The building rumbled and shook. If any of the players had been outside they would have seen the three huge silver grabbing ropes tearing through the void! The heavy steel ropes tore through every inch of the sky, bringing with a slight crackling sound, that ran chills up the spine. But in a blink of an eye, they would have realized, these chills were not simply because of panic and fear, but because of static electricity that coursed throughout the entire rope.

The heavy rope crashed into the ground, shaking unceasingly with the crumbling and shaking ground, dust billowed heavily and the cold wind was like sharp blades slashing against the skin.

The grappling line accurately rolled down the edge of the debris and went under the Institute's base. The pointed end of the metal long ropes hooked under the tall buildings and slowly exerted force, the sound of the creaking and rumbling was harsh.

The fragments of the entire building were held firmly by these three grasping ropes!

The players inside only felt the building shift and they eere6 slammed against the wall several times in the irresistible vibration, shouting panicked and fearful, "What is happening!!"

No one could give them the answer.

As soon as their voices fell, a huge silver object slowly emerged from the dark sky. It was made up of several oblate circles of different sizes. At first glance, it looked like several steel spiders had gathered together in groups. And the three grabbing ropes were hanging down from the iron spider.

Behind the ship, multiple black dots appeared on the horizon. Slowly growing bigger and bigger until hundreds of dark starships appeared in the sky above the Institute.

Those three grabbing lines didn't look sturdy, but they were surprisingly strong. After all, they were made by combining the precious lithin ore mined for years by the residents of the abandoned planet and a combination of renuu steel. These lines have been dragged between the stars for hundreds of years, and the wear rate was less than 44%.

Such a thing as wanting to pull a building directly from its roots was a piece of cake.

Moreover, the claws on the top of the metal cable are hollow, and the inner structure was sophisticated and complex, it could construct a powerful energy field that would encase the building the moment of successfully uprooting the target.

Hum!—

The trembling sound came from the bottom of the building. An energy field with a huge repelling force has already taken shape. With an irresistible vibration, the force field coordinated with the pulling of the grasping cable, and the heavy debris was pulled upwards!

Under the influence of the huge shock, the Institute that had been untouched for centuries was finally ripped from the ground of the planet. The scattered dust that fell from the base did not spread, nor did it fall to the ground, but instead rushed upward. The heavy walls creaked and trembled the faint screaming and cries of voices echoed between broken walls.

Only a deep gaping hole was left from the ruins. The pitch-black building was slowly lifted to the sky, the bright rays of the sun reflecting coldly off the shining metallic structure. The once prestigious and important Institute was now like a piece of heavy scrap metal that would be crushed and thrown away into the darkest depths of the universe.

Just then something changed.

From the void, bare hands suddenly grabbed onto the heavy metal chains!

The hand holding it was long and thin, but the bulging bones and joints showed inescapable strength.

When the beautiful hand touched the metal surface of the grappling rope, it made a crackling sound, like water dripping into the boiling pan containing hot oil. Just listening to it, you could imagine that the skin was burnt and mangled, the agonizing pain was like magma coursing through his veins.

But the person who grabbed the ropes didn't seem to feel any pain, the ghostly blues seemed to imprint the hanging building into his eyes. Those eyes were desperate and bloody, hidden beneath was a kind of heavy fear as if his most precious things were being torn away from him.

The man's hand was burned until even the white bone beneath the flesh could be vaguely seen but still, he clung to the ropes frenziedly, a crazed and paranoid expression on his face. The man hung above the sky, the cold and harsh glare of the sun slamming into his cold pupils.

The white ship seemed to feel something, and the heavy cords had held the Institute slowly withdrew. The heavy and unbearable pressure in the powerful energy field became chaotic and distorted smashing into the man's body like a steel train.

The outer circle of hidden matter formed by the ropes has an irresistible gravitational force on the. In the blink of an eye, the grappling rope was sucked in, as if there is an invisible big hand, cutting away the man's last hope. Blue eyes stared unceasingly at the metal building that was being carried away, dark red blood spurting from his lips, and his body shook as if every bone in his body was being broken.

When the thing he was waiting for never appeared, a light seemed to be outed in his eyes and slowly he released his hand.

In the bottomless space, a man fell from the skies like a star that had been its final light. Only the blood that stained the metal ropes was the only thing left as a reminder to him.

Chu Yi who lay among the bed of roses slowly opened his eyes, a strange and cruel grin appearing in the corner of his lips. 

Rumble—

The outer layer of the planet carried a dense forcefield of would be activated once the original planet is forcibly invaded by foreign objects, but could only be formed by the Institute.

Behind the ships that left, bright yellow energy-matter shot from the dark canons passed through the ozone layer of the planet, densely packed, and shot down at an extremely fast speed, like a grand fire rain blessing the land!

They rushed in, with a strong sense of oppression, as if they were about to collide and crash in the next second. However, the visual effect and the actual distance had a considerable error, and the fireballs finally roared and landed in the far corner of the planet. When the first one fell, the whole ground trembled, then the second, the third...

The whole earth trembled constantly, filled with a sense of death and destruction as the planet was destroyed!
