Chapter 257 Truth about the Apocalypse
"Wait, wait, wait. I don't get it. It was said that T.A was a soldier who was experimented on. How did he become the mastermind behind all this?" Rudy asked with a curious and confused look on his face.
"How am I supposed to know that? Just like the leaders of the human world reported to their citizens, I was informed by the representatives of the other worlds, or rather, other races. And I bet my hair that the human world's report was fake."
Nyxia shrugged her shoulders and said, "It could be that T.A was the one pulling all the strings and manipulating the world leader? Do you know who or which country first started these supergene experiments?"
"No." Rudy shook his head and said, "They were doing it in secret, but it was permitted by the government, just wasn't made public. But after the apocalypse, they said they stopped all the experiments for the greater good. But I bet you wouldn't be surprised if I tell you that they are still doing that in secret."
"Yeah. Not surprising. Perhaps, they are trying to repeat history." Nyxia frowned her face and said, "Listen carefully, boy. If humans became a threat to us or any other races and tried to initiate the war, it won't end well."
"Is that a threat? Or a warning?"
"None. It's a statement. So if that ever happens, please don't interfere. You can take your loved ones and move to a different world."
"As long as you don't harm the innocents, I won't interfere. But don't worry." Rudy winked at Nyxia with a smile on his face and uttered, "That won't happen. I plan to look into every secret the human world is hiding and destroy everything before it gets messy. After all, a threat to you all is a threat to me and my loved ones too."This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
"I can't..." Nyxia shook her flushed face and glared at Rudy with teary eyes. She opened her mouth to say something but stopped and continued glaring at him.
"What? I don't think I said something wrong."
"The Lord will punish you for playing with me like this," Nyxia muttered.
"Hmm?"
"I feel like I shouldn't have mentioned the word 'fiction' in front of you. But anyway, yes. A necromancer is someone who can revive and control the dead. They are called undead, or in a human term— zombies."
"Ah!" Rudy suddenly exclaimed and slashed his fist in the water before saying, "That's right!"
"What happened so suddenly?"
"That article... It said that T.A gained the ability to control and command other zombies, but it was just the necromancer using his powers. Wow... just wow. This mixture of fantasy magic with modern science is blowing my mind!"
"Well, now you have answers to all your questions."
"No, I have one more question about the apocalypse." Rudy stared at Nyxia with a serious look on his face and asked, "T.A disappeared all of a sudden. What's the reason behind that? I am sure the other races did something, but I want to know what."
"Heh." Nyxia chuckled and said, "I should have expected this question."
"And I am hoping for an answer."
After a brief silence, Nyxia continued, "Anderson wanted to become the king of humans since all the races had their own kings, but humankind didn't. The era of monarchy had ended, and everything of democracy, which in my opinion, was worse."
"...." Rudy shot an amusing glance at Nyxia but didn't say anything.
"It didn't matter if he ruled over the humans when they were alive or dead. Of course, he wasn't a natural-born necromancer, so there were limitations to his powers. He couldn't revive the already dead humans, so he decided to kill those who were alive and revive them as his servants."
"The vampires and the other races were unknown to that until it was too late."
