Chapter 442: Chapter 225: Death is Not Frightening, What’s Most Terrifying is Provoking Su Yu!
At this moment, the aura emanating from Yue Cheng was formless and colorless.
This aura couldn’t be detected by the naked eye, nor by any monitoring equipment.
Only a Transcendent as sensitive as Su Yu, a dual-god Evil God, could detect this eerie aura.
The strange aura on Yue Cheng’s body was currently spreading from him, infecting various devices in his room.
As the head of the War City’s trading team, Yue Cheng held a rather high status. His room had many advanced mechanical devices.
These devices, now tainted by the weird aura, also became eerie.
Although on the surface, these smart devices showed no abnormalities, their insides were completely different.
They seemed to have acquired some kind of "life," and began to harbor hostility towards Yue Cheng.
Naturally, Yue Cheng hadn’t noticed these abnormalities.
He drank for a while, swearing as he got up, intending to go to the bathroom.
Bang!
A personal terminal that was charging suddenly had its power cord spark and snap.
The broken power cord jerked and fell onto Yue Cheng’s foot.
"Ah!"
Yue Cheng received a shock, leaping up with a start, and then looked at the power cord and the personal terminal with a face full of terror.
"Traitors! You’re all traitors, even you dead objects have betrayed me! Trying to kill me?!"
"Die! All of you die for me!"
Yue Cheng suddenly screamed frantically, lunged forward, and smashed the smart terminal to pieces before stopping to catch his breath.
Then he didn’t go to the bathroom, but curled up in a corner of the room, warily watching the other equipment in the room like a frightened bird.
It seemed as if everything in the room might come to life at any moment, "betray" him, and kill him.
His deep dark circles, frightened eyes, and trembling body made him look like a madman.
To actually suspect that the dead objects in the room had betrayed him and wanted to kill him—if that’s not madness, what is?
Even he himself, after a moment, realized something was wrong.
"How did I become like this? Have I gone mad?"
"These machines are dead objects, with no spiritual energy influence. How could they come to life and want to kill me? Could it all be my imagination?"
"Everyone around me is saying that I was polluted by the Evil God in the Mechanical City. Could it really be true..."
Yue Cheng muttered a few words to himself, suddenly covered his face, and seemed to sink into despair.
"No, you’re not crazy."
At this time, a voice suddenly appeared in his room.
Yue Cheng was startled, quickly looked up, and saw a figure in armor suddenly materialize from the air.
"You are, Lord Su Yu, the administrator of the Mechanical City!"
Yue Cheng blurted out.
Although somewhat frantic, his basic reason remained, and he immediately recognized the Brutal Battle Armor.
After all, he had worked in the Mechanical City for some time, how could he not recognize Su Yu’s image?
"Yes, that’s me."
Su Yu nodded and then continued, "You are not crazy, but indeed, you have been polluted."
He saw clearly just now that Yue Cheng wasn’t insane.
The mechanical devices around Yue Cheng were indeed "betrayed" by the strange aura.
Those mechanical devices didn’t have intelligence.
But under that strange aura, they appeared to come "alive" and attempted to kill Yue Cheng.
In fact, not just that personal terminal, several other Mechanical Creations also made dangerous moves, only being restrained by Su Yu.
Otherwise, Yue Cheng might have been injured by now.
Even with Su Yu’s covert help, if Yue Cheng didn’t have the strength of a three-star Transcendent, he might already have been electrocuted.
If he had been shocked unconscious, there’s no telling if he would come around.
All the mechanical devices in this room were deeply hostile towards Yue Cheng, longing for his immediate demise.
Even non-mechanical items, such as tables and chairs, showed signs of coming alive and attacking Yue Cheng.
Su Yu had witnessed things like dead objects betraying their owners before.
Back when the Brutal Split Mind descended, Su Yu attacked Brutality with a mechanical battle group.
However, the mechanical battle group, under the Evil God’s Voice of Brutality, betrayed him in turn to attack Su Yu, their master.
The situation then was very similar to now.
And now the situation seemed even more bizarre and unpredictable.
Back then, the Brutal Split Mind needed to emit the Evil God’s Voice to make the mechanical battle group betray.
Currently, the strange aura emanating from Yue Cheng was invisible and formless, seemingly even more troublesome.
"Could it be Brutality acting up again? Is it the Power of Brutal?"
"Or is it a hidden threat laid by the Demon of Vengeance? Or a new enemy..."
Su Yu pondered in his heart as he sensed the strange aura.
He tried to trace the source of this eerie aura, but to no avail.
This aura was very well-concealed, with no known origin, seeming to appear on Yue Cheng out of thin air.
And at that moment, upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Yue Cheng’s eyes suddenly lit up, pointing at Su Yu: "It’s you, you polluted me?! Are you indeed an Evil God?"
"Su Yu, what’s your plot?"
"I’ve suffered enough torture, do whatever you want, but don’t expect to use me! If worst comes to worst, I’ll just die!"
Yue Cheng shouted.
He regarded Su Yu as the mastermind.
He had long heard rumors that Su Yu, the administrator of the Mechanical City, might be the incarnation of an Evil God.
So...it must be Su Yu, the Evil God, who polluted him!
He was not crazy!
Su Yu was not angry upon hearing this: "You misunderstood. I didn’t pollute you."
