Survival: The Evolution of an Evil God Starting from a Spider

Page 279

"Hehe, little guy! I didn't expect you to have such a high status in these people's hearts. It seems that my choice was right?"

Just as everyone was making their choices, Liu Ziming did not expect that the voice of the Evil God Emperor would ring in his ears again, and it sounded particularly desolate.

Compared to the arrogant demeanor of the Evil God Emperor before, his voice was now somewhat weakened; if Liu Ziming didn't listen carefully, she might not even notice it. "What exactly do you want? I have now fully awakened the Evil God's body and received your mantle. Do you have other plans?"

Liu Ziming made no attempt to hide anything from his brothers, feeling it necessary for them to know everything so they could make the right choice. "Boss, was it that evil god emperor talking to you again?"

The old Flame Dragon swung its long tail and spoke directly to its leader, Liu Ziming.

Because he believed that since his boss, Liu Ziming, had spoken out, he certainly didn't intend to hide it from everyone, so it was better to be open and honest. "Yes, since I obtained the inheritance of the Evil God Emperor, his lingering remnant spirit can still have some kind of psychological connection with me?"

Liu Ziming had a slightly pained expression on his face. He didn't want it to be like this, but there was nothing he could do; at least for now, he couldn't change it.

"Hehe, little guy, listen carefully. My lingering will won't last much longer. The entire inheritance has been transferred to you. The only remaining trace of my will is the last memory I leave you?" Hearing the Evil God Emperor's slightly sorrowful tone, Liu Ziming felt a strange unease. As for why he felt this way, he couldn't understand it himself.

Chapter 433 The Last Sanctuary

"What exactly do you mean? Are you saying that the lingering resentment that has allowed you to live for a thousand years is just going to disappear like this?"

Now that he has obtained the inheritance of the Evil God Emperor, it is better to actively absorb it than to passively accept it. Therefore, Liu Ziming must fully understand everything about the Evil God Emperor. For him, this is the most correct choice.

"Don't worry, the reason I have the title of Evil God Emperor is not because I am an evil person. It's just that those hypocritical guys wouldn't let me live in this world. That was a long time ago. It's good that you know."

Liu Ziming was really confused. When this Evil God Emperor spoke these words, he seemed weak and listless, as if he might dissipate at any moment.

So he tried his best to stay clear-headed so that he could hear and understand more clearly in order to better understand this evil god emperor.

"Why is it like this? Are those hypocritical guys you mentioned the ones who consider themselves righteous? This ancient battlefield is where you started your great war, isn't it?"

Liu Ziming had to figure this out, because his brothers must have obtained some so-called treasures from this ancient battlefield. If he couldn't figure it out, it might cause them trouble.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so smart even when you were a kid. It seems my choice back then was really right. It's just that the martial arts I practiced were too aggressive. Otherwise, those guys wouldn't have been able to easily trap me here and start that ancient and protracted war, which led to the complete destruction of the world and made it like it is now."

Upon hearing the Evil God Emperor's explanation, Liu Ziming's heart trembled violently.

It seems the Evil God Emperor was telling the truth, for everything before us is the best proof. Things have developed to this point; he has no reason to lie. "Old man, it seems I misunderstood you?"

The Evil God Emperor was completely taken aback that Little White had accepted him so quickly, even changing his form of address. He seemed incredibly excited. "Hehe, very good, very good. To hear you call me 'old man' as I'm on the verge of dissipation, I'm already more than satisfied."

Hearing the Evil God Emperor's slightly regretful tone, Xiao Bai felt a strange pain in his heart, a feeling that was even somewhat heart-wrenching, but he couldn't explain it.

"Old man, do you have any better way to make your lingering thoughts or will survive completely? If so, please teach me. I will try my best even if it costs me my life." Xiao Bai was really going all out now. If he could make the will of this evil god emperor survive, he would really do his best.

"Hahahaha, I'm so happy! There's no need for that anymore. My last wisp of will will transform into three divine talismans to leave to you as your final protection. Perhaps they can even save your life when you're on the verge of death?"

When the Evil God Emperor finished speaking, his last thought vanished without a trace, and finally, three beams of divine light appeared before Xiao Bai's eyes, shooting directly into his head.

Xiao Bai knew that the Evil God Emperor, who had once been an emperor, had completely vanished. His last wisp of consciousness had actually drawn three divine talismans to protect him—something Xiao Bai had never dared to even imagine before. "Boss, what's wrong with you? Why are you so agitated?"

The cat angel actually came over and kept wiping Liu Ziming's eyes with its hands.

At this moment, Liu Ziming felt a strange pain in his heart, but he couldn't explain why. Tears welled up in his eyes involuntarily, and he could only let them flow freely; he didn't care anymore. "It's nothing, it's nothing, everything might be over, everything might be over?"

At this moment, Liu Ziming was like a puppet, mechanically repeating that everything might be over, leaving everyone somewhat confused.

Because they couldn't understand what their leader, Liu Ziming, meant by those words. What did it mean that everything was over? Did he mean they had escaped from the game instance? But after thinking about it, something didn't seem quite right.

After about seven or eight minutes, Liu Ziming finally came to his senses. His face showed obvious pain, and he looked at everyone calmly and said... (Request for flowers).

"The Evil God Emperor has completely vanished. His last consciousness has merged into my body. I am now the Evil God Emperor. Are you still willing to accept this?"

Since he has completely obtained the inheritance of the Evil God Emperor, and the so-called Evil God Emperor has completely disappeared, why not just tell everyone directly instead of letting them not understand?

As for how the others would react and what choices they would make, Liu Ziming could not and did not want to go against their wishes. "Boss, you are the boss. No matter what you transform into, you are our boss."

The giant ape elder appeared extremely excited, his hands trembling as he gripped the hands of the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, as if his heart was in turmoil.

"Yes, yes, no matter what you become, boss, you will always be our boss in our hearts. That will never change until we die." Liu Ziming never expected that the expression on Slime Mirror's face would become so serious, and he said it very earnestly.

The expressions on everyone's faces showed extreme excitement, except for one person: Princess Yuebai. Her memories had been erased, and she stared blankly at everyone like a stranger. "Boss, Yuebai is truly pitiful. Is there no way to restore all her memories?" The Flame Dragon Elder looked at Princess Yuebai with deep sorrow and spoke softly.

In fact, Liu Ziming had thought about this before, but then he thought that perhaps losing her past memories would be a better choice for Princess Yuebai.

At least he wouldn't feel inferior because he was once the Demon King's daughter, nor would he suffer because he was once an elven princess and couldn't find his mother. "Senior, I don't think that's necessary. His current memories are probably the best option for him."

Upon hearing what their leader, Liu Ziming, said, the Giant Ape Elder and the Flame Dragon Elder nodded in unison. They understood what their leader, Liu Ziming, meant.

Chapter 434 Starting from the Beginning

Everyone saw the slightly helpless expression on Liu Ziming's face and knew that they had to accept the outcome; even if they wanted to change it, they were probably powerless to do so.

"Boss, we can't stay here forever, can we? This place is desolate. Although there's nothing too dangerous, it's not suitable for people like us to stay here."

Now that they had completely left the game's dungeon, everything seemed even more uncertain. However, the Fire Dragon Elder's mind was remarkably clear, and he began to consider the future. "Of course, we must find a safe area and enclose it. Otherwise, we have no idea what will happen next."

Upon hearing what the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, said, everyone instantly understood that it was already quite difficult for people like them to be able to transform into human form from different things using the "two, three, seven" method.

Therefore, as their leader Liu Ziming said, establishing a so-called safe zone is now of particular importance to them.

“Boss, just like you said, there are probably not many humans left in this world. Even if they have survived, they may have mutated. It’s better to be careful.” The giant ape elder quickly realized the complexity and seriousness of the problem and said to everyone earnestly.

After all, it was already extremely difficult for these people to survive by the skin of their teeth and regain their human form.

Therefore, they do not want to continue to decline and remain inactive; they must change the existing situation and regain control over their own survival.

All of this sounds easy, but it's incredibly difficult in practice; they themselves don't even know just how difficult it will be. "Alright, shall we take Yuebai with us and continue our journey? As for where we end up, we'll just have to see how things go."

Because no one has a better way right now, apart from Liu Ziming, this freak, no one else can perceive what is happening in the world around them.

So everyone could only silently follow behind their leader, Liu Ziming, and there was really nothing else they could do.

After walking for about two or three hours, the scorching sun finally shone on everyone again, giving them a particularly comfortable feeling. "My goodness, it feels like I've returned from hell to the world. Looking at this blazing sun, I feel a special sense of familiarity!" When the fiery red sun reappeared before their familiar faces, Seven-Colored Deer and Cat were particularly excited.

The cat angel's wings had grown even bigger, and they started flapping incessantly, looking eager to take flight.

"Everyone's probably tired. Let's find a place to rest and at least replenish our energy and water, otherwise we'll definitely collapse."

After all, these people had been walking for two or three hours and were already experiencing dehydration and food shortages. If they didn't get some food and water, probably none of them could endure it any longer.

But looking at the desolate place before them, they really didn't know where to find these two things that could help them survive. "But boss, this place is so desolate, where are we going to find food and water?" Cat Angel looked at the desolate scene in the distance and felt a real sense of helplessness.

Because he didn't know how to meet his physiological needs, and after all, not drinking water was crucial for people like them. "Don't worry, the food and water you mentioned will be taken care of. Otherwise, I wouldn't be resting here."

Hearing their leader, Liu Ziming, calmly express his thoughts, the others were quite surprised. After all, this guy had an extraordinary sense of perception, and everything he said might be true.

But looking at the desolate surroundings, they could hardly believe where their food and water were.

"You all sit here and rest for a bit. I'll go out and get some food and water. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Liu Ziming smiled faintly. After all, he was in a much better mood after coming out of the game's dungeon.

Although he inherited everything from the Evil God Emperor, it didn't do him any major harm...

"Hehe, I'm a little worried about you going alone, boss. How about I go with you?"

For the first time ever, the Flame Dragon Elder followed behind the leader, Liu Ziming, like a little shadow, which looked quite bizarre.

Since no one was sure where they could find food and water, the old Flame Dragon was probably being overly cautious.

"Senior, I really don't understand. Since you have awakened the bloodline of the ancient ancestral dragon, and are a dragon after all, don't you have any sense of the future?" Hearing what the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, said, the Flame Dragon Elder's face showed an embarrassed expression again. He was truly powerless to do anything about it.

Seeing the embarrassed expression on Senior Flame Dragon's face, Liu Ziming laughed, and laughed very casually. He had only said it offhand, not expecting it to cause such an awkward reaction from the senior Flame Dragon. "Hehe, everything you've said seems to be completely unknown to me, boss. I have absolutely no perception ability, otherwise I wouldn't be so passive, right?" Fortunately, the place where Liu Ziming sensed water shouldn't be too far away, so the two quickened their pace and walked over.

Seeing that their leader, Liu Ziming, showed no reaction and even quickened his pace, the Flame Dragon Elder (1.9) also looked particularly puzzled and quickly followed. "This is it. There should be a water source here?"

Seeing that their leader, Liu Ziming, was pointing to a spot with only a few scattered blades of grass, and the surrounding trees seemed quite abundant, the Flame Dragon Elder truly couldn't imagine that there could be water in that place. "Boss, you're not joking, are you? How could there possibly be water here?"

Seeing the Flame Dragon Elder's reaction, Liu Ziming didn't say a word and just kept digging in the ground with his palms.

He firmly believed that there must be a water source in this place, otherwise he wouldn't have had such a strong reaction.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get started. If the two of us work together, we'll find a water source very quickly."

Chapter 435 Creating a Safe Zone

Seeing Liu Ziming's strong reaction, the Flame Dragon Elder was now starting to believe it. Otherwise, his boss would never have done this; he wasn't a reckless person. "Boss, if there really is a water source here, why don't you use your own energy source? Why go through all this trouble?"

The old Flame Dragon was really confused. Why was his boss, Liu Ziming, searching for water with his bare hands without touching any of his own energy sources?

In truth, he didn't understand at all. If Liu Ziming used his energy source, he would definitely destroy the water source he had discovered. At that point, not only would the water be gone, but everything else would cease to exist. "You would never understand these things. Only by digging a small pit with your bare hands will the water source gush up?"

Upon hearing what the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, said, the Flame Dragon Elder no longer hesitated and quickly squatted down, joining Liu Ziming in searching for water with their bare hands.

Two people working together are indeed much faster than one, and they quickly dug a pit of moderate diameter. "Alright, just wait a moment, the water will soon be flowing up?"

Seeing that the pit the two had dug was big enough, Liu Ziming stopped and looked at the Flame Dragon Elder, speaking directly to him.

The Flame Dragon stared at the small pit, genuinely wondering if water could be found here, and probably elsewhere as well.

But he never expected that the water source would soon surge up at a visible speed, and more and more would gather.

"My God, boss, this is amazing! How did you discover that there's a water source here, and that it's buried deep underground?"

The old Flame Dragon knelt down with a thud, his mouth pressed against the water source, and he drank the sweet water in large gulps, feeling extremely comfortable all over.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Look how lush everything around here is, only these few blades of grass seem strange. Besides, there must be an underground river here. I heard the sound of the underground river, that's why I found this place."

Upon hearing Liu Ziming's explanation, Elder Flame felt relieved.

Because he knew that their leader, Liu Ziming, was an absolute freak; everything seemed effortless to him, and things that others couldn't do were no problem for him. "Let's not waste any more time. Let's hurry and get the water back to everyone. I'm sure they're all parched."

Liu Ziming held some water in his hands, first relieving his thirst, and then filled various bottles and jars with water from who-knows-where before the two of them returned.

"Senior, please take this water back with everyone. I'll go out and find some food to eat. After all, we've been walking for so long, and if we don't replenish our energy, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on any longer." Since the leader, Liu Ziming, had already said so, the Flame Dragon Elder didn't hesitate at all. He reached out and took the water, carried it on his back, and turned to go back.

Now he was absolutely certain that if his boss, Liu Ziming, said he could find it, then he definitely could. "Senior, why did you come back alone? Where's the boss? Where did he go?"

When the old Flame Dragon carried the water back, the Cat Angel looked around with a puzzled expression. Since he didn't see the boss, Liu Ziming, he asked directly.

Even the giant ape elder seemed particularly puzzled. Surely Liu Ziming wouldn't have any other problems?

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about our boss. Liu Ziming is a freak. This water is underground. If it weren't for our boss's extraordinary hearing ability, that underground river would never have been discovered, and we wouldn't have found these water sources." The old Flame Dragon explained with a smile, because he now admired his boss's abilities to the point of complete awe.

However, he seemed to have overlooked one issue: everyone was asking where their leader, Liu Ziming, had gone, but he only talked about the water issue and didn't answer the question that everyone was most concerned about.

"Old man, I'm asking you, where exactly did your boss, Liu Ziming, go?"

It's no wonder that the giant ape elder and everyone else seemed anxious. If anything happened to their leader, Liu Ziming, it would definitely be bad news for them. "Don't worry, the leader said he's going out to find some more food. He'll be back soon."

Seeing everyone's anxious expressions, the Flame Dragon Elder was immediately puzzled. Boss Liu Ziming is not a child. Could he have gotten lost?

But he had no idea what everyone was most worried about, because if their leader, Liu Ziming, were to have any problems or abandon them, they would be helpless. "Hehe, since that's the case, everyone should hurry up and drink some water. After all, we've walked for so long, we must be thirsty."

Now that they knew what their leader, Liu Ziming, had gone to do, the giant ape elder didn't hesitate at all. He immediately picked up the water and distributed it to everyone. He trusted that Liu Ziming wouldn't abandon anyone; he was definitely out looking for food, and it was only a matter of time before he returned. "This place seems a bit strange? There's actually an underground river. If I hadn't been paying close attention, I really wouldn't have discovered it." Liu Ziming actually followed the underground river's passage, slowly searching for what he thought was food, but after searching for a long time, he found nothing.

Looking at everything in front of him, he felt that something was not right. Logically speaking, there should be some edible food here, or at least some small animals.
