Godslayer: After the Seraph rejected me, I ascended directly to the highest godhood.

Chapter 653 The Function of the Heart

Aurora Realm, Upper Evil Society.

Under the neon lights of the city, holographic advertisements flash and switch on both sides of the street.

"These past few days have finally been comfortable. That madman must have been locked up by the chairman."

"That's right. I heard that the president used the highest level of protection. That madman definitely can't escape."

"That's good, that's good!"

"..."

In front of a roadside food stall, several burly men were drinking beer and chatting together.

His face was no longer filled with fear and anxiety, but instead showed a smile of relief after surviving a disaster.

The city, built from tiny pixels, has lost its former silence and darkness, and is now filled with bright lights and bustling activity.

The streets are crisscrossed, and pedestrians stroll along them. Music plays softly in bars and nightclubs.

hum-

A cool black motorcycle roared through the streets like a beast.

The image commemorates the moment when someone, dressed in racing gear and helmet, twists the accelerator to its maximum, leaving the houses on either side of the road as blurry afterimages.

Zizizi!

Finally, in front of the research institute bearing the banner of the Evil Society, they executed an incredibly beautiful drift, the tires scraping against the ground and creating white smoke, before coming to a precise stop in front of the gate.

As he disembarked, he took off his helmet, revealing a cascade of silver hair falling over his shoulders.

"Chairman." The guard at the entrance of the research institute saluted.

Jinian nodded slightly and tossed the car keys to the guard, saying, "Help me park the car."

"Yes, President."

Commemorating the moment when I strode into the research institute and boarded the downward elevator.

Ding!

"We've arrived at the third basement level."

The elevator announced that we had entered a futuristic laboratory, where members of the Shangxie Society, dressed in white lab coats, were conducting a tense comparative study.

"His mental state is extremely unstable, and the calamity within him is constantly taking control of his body, awakening once again."

"Increase the injection of the Calamity Sleep Potion and see if we can awaken his self-awareness."

"it is good!"

Jinian listened to the researchers' conversation without disturbing them, and instead went to a laboratory separated by thick glass.

Inside lay Chen Ling, dressed in a bright red opera robe, his eyes closed, with various instruments connected to his body.

Since the Star Destroyer missile suppressed the [Mockery] Disaster within Chen Ling's body ten days ago, she has been in a deep sleep.

Moreover, the [Mocking] Calamity within her body could take over Chen Ling's body at any time.

As he observed, his brow gradually furrowed.

We haven't found a way to get Chen Ling into the Gods' Mental Hospital yet, and right now Chen Ling's independent consciousness is being taken over by the [Mocking] Disaster.

"President, news has come from the Great Xia Night Watch."

Ji Nian was taken aback and glanced at the approaching communications officer. "What message?"

"The Great Xia Dynasty has newly formed a special team called 'Salvation,' which will carry out missions in the Nine Realms. The Shangxie Society is required to fully cooperate, as the mission is extremely important!"

A newly formed special squad?

Upon hearing this, Ji Nian's lips twitched involuntarily.

"Is Ye Fan out of his mind? Sending a newly formed special forces team to the Nine Realms on a mission? With that kind of strength, isn't that just suicide?"

The criteria for establishing a special team are not based on its current strength, but on its future potential.

For example, the God's Agent has great potential, and applying to form a special reserve team would be no problem at all.

Therefore, this newly formed special team is only at the Boundless Realm level at most, and has no real strength.

In these nine realms rife with calamities, this level of strength is so formidable that it's not even enough to carry out missions; it would be impossible to defeat even the law enforcers of the Aurora Realm.

"What else did Ye Fan say? Why send a bunch of rookies here?"

The communications officer shook his head. "The mission carried out by the [Salvation] team is classified, and a lot of information has not been disclosed to us."

Ji Nian was taken aback. What top-secret mission could a newly formed special team be tasked with?

"What is the name of the captain of the [Salvation] team?"

"Yes, I have this one, his name is... Jiang Ye!"

what?

My pupils dilated when I heard that name.

Because the letter mentioned 'Jiang Ye' in the director's office of the Gods Mental Hospital.

He requested that after sending Chen Ling to the hospital, he would hand over the hospital's authority to Jiang Ye.

Ji Nian stroked his chin thoughtfully for a while before asking, "When will they arrive?"

"They're almost there. They've already entered the 'Gateway,' and it shouldn't be long before they reach the Aurora Realm."

Ji Nian nodded, about to leave the lab to meet the "Savior" team.

Drop drop!

Suddenly, the instruments monitoring Chen Ling's vital signs started beeping.

Everyone in the laboratory was taken aback and looked at Chen Ling, who was connected to numerous instruments.

Chen Ling, who was on the experimental table, began to tremble all over, and the connected instruments slowly fell off her body.

Wow!

As Chen Ling suddenly sat up, all the instruments lost their monitoring signals.

He was breathing heavily, his face remained expressionless, and his eyes resembled human pupils.

Upon seeing this, Ji Nian quickly asked the researchers to open the door and entered the isolation room.

"are you OK?"

Ji Nian smoothed the silver hair behind her ear, walked up to Chen Ling, and asked.

Chen Ling lowered her head and muttered to herself, "I remember now, I lost something."

Ji Nian frowned slightly, "What is it?"

"A heart!" Chen Ling clutched her chest, but couldn't feel her heart beating.

Because he didn't have a heart at all.

Heart?

A thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. Chen Ling had indeed lost his heart. It was discovered when they captured him that he had no heart.

Is this 'heart' important to you?

Chen Ling raised her head, her face deathly pale, and nodded heavily. "It's very important. It's the only way to save Ayan, and it's also... and it's also..."

"And what is it?" Commemoration listened intently.

"Yes...yes..." Chen Ling's face began to contort, her hands clutching her head, "It's here again..."

Audience anticipation level: 11%

Chen Ling's eyes turned bloodshot, and her lips began to tear...

Ji Jin was startled; this guy was about to transform again.

Zizizi!

In an instant, all the instruments in the laboratory began to spark, and the displays flickered.

"How come this guy gets stronger every time?"

Under the perception of the human ceiling, Ji Nian knew perfectly well that this laboratory could not contain Chen Ling.

"You all stand aside!"

In commemoration of grabbing Chen Ling, countless tiny pixels enveloped Chen Ling's entire body, as if a natural insulating layer, and the instrument's malfunction also stopped.

Without pausing, she grabbed Chen Ling and rushed out of the laboratory.

If we stay here, everyone except myself will die!

Under the aurora borealis, Ji Nian led Chen Ling to a remote urban area.

Wow!

At the same time, Chen Ling broke free from the pixels covering her body and struck the ground like beads.

"Hehehe..."

A strange, eerie laugh came from behind.

Commemorating the moment when he suddenly turned around, those scarlet eyes, paired with his curved mouth, formed a chilling smile.

"[Mocking] Disaster, do you want me to beat you back again?"

Upon hearing this, the laughter suddenly stopped, and the eerie smiling face twisted and changed for a moment.

"Big sister, big sister, let's talk this out. I'm here to make a deal with you," said [Mocking Disaster].

"If you help me break the seal set by the Red King, I will do anything for you!"

Ji Nian sneered, "That won't do. If I release you, Chen Ling will lose her heart and die."

"This..." [Mocking Disaster] pondered for a moment, "I know where his heart is. If I tell you, will you help me break the seal?"

Ji Nian raised an eyebrow. "Tell me where it is first."

"No, you have to agree first!"

"Fine, I'll just beat you back." Ji Nian raised her arm.

"Stop, stop, stop, I'll talk, I'll talk." [Mocking Disaster] gave in.

It glanced helplessly at the memorial and slowly said, "Before the Three Realms merged, before the Crimson Star appeared."

"A heart shrouded in a pale white mist traversed space and appeared at the intersection of the Gray Realm and the Nine Realms."

"That's the heart Chen Ling gave to his younger brother!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Nian pondered for a moment, then asked, "Then where did the heart go?"

"I originally sent Chen Ling to steal it, but a noblewoman in a purple dress appeared out of nowhere. She was incredibly powerful and stole my heart."

"Who is that woman? Why did she steal Chen Ling's heart?" Ji Nian asked, puzzled.

[Mocking Disaster] chuckled twice, "Actually, I'm not sure if that heart is Chen Ling's, but what I can be sure of is that someone has imbued it with Chen Ling's aura."

"That should have belonged to Chen Ling, but in the end, that woman snatched it away and merged it into a boy's body. I don't know who they are."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nian said speechlessly, "Then it's the same as saying nothing at all? You still don't know where Chen Ling's heart is."

"No!" [Mocking Disaster] denied, "That heart has been imbued with Chen Ling's aura; he can sense it as long as the heart is near him."

"And do you know the function of that heart?"

"What does it do?"

[Mocking Disaster]: "That's a key, a key that can unlock the mystery of the Red Star!"

P.S.: The next chapter will be tonight; something came up this afternoon and I was late.
