Chapter 2419 - 2414: The Prophet Is Dead (25)
Chapter 2419: Chapter 2414: The Prophet Is Dead (25)
Is this considered a declaration of intent through death?
The self-destruction was not very potent, merely resembling a side effect that exceeded its load; the core impact was still the pain mapping created in the process.
Unfortunately, even the latter didn’t cause any substantial damage.
Indeed, Fu Qian expressed at that moment that he was still too mediocre.
Perhaps that kind of pain could drive some Demigods to madness, but it was still far from sufficient, unable to transcend the limitations of this ranking.
In contrast, facing the accusations with righteous refutations and ultimately self-destructing to declare intent in death had a greater impact on the mindset.
Is that door really unrelated to Black Doctor?
Is he really just a High-level Extraordinary with a bit of wicked interest and not enough courage?
"Do you really think so? To be honest, I can’t figure out what he was after by doing that."
Even in the midst of reflection, Amber couldn’t help but question, breaking the silence.
Initially, aside from the toxic gas earlier, the final pain mapping had clearly placed immense pressure on her, even though she had already distanced herself.
But with the shattering of Black Doctor, the torment originating from him seemed to abruptly lose its power support, lightening Amber’s burden significantly.
And respecting the deceased, she took a big breath of relief without venting her anger on the corpse. On the contrary, concerning Fu Qian’s statement, she clearly felt it was a bit too conspiratorial.
"What was he after... This is indeed a question worth considering, but if you fully believe what he said, it might mean you can’t return. How do you feel about that?"
Rather than rushing to debate, Fu Qian instead glanced at Amber and along her statement, posed a question.
...
"The answer is I won’t think about it because maybe I don’t need to go back... I never thought the situation behind the door would be like this, leading to some potential risks from my actions."
This question Black Doctor actually already answered earlier, but the comforting part was Amber gave a somewhat novel answer after a brief silence.
"Waking up here doesn’t mean the Crystal over there will disappear?"
Fortunately, Fu Qian’s comprehension kept up, quickly giving a speculation based on her statement.
"It’s highly probable, though right now she can’t sense me, nor can I sense her."
Amber slightly nodded, agreeing with this statement.
The combined friend couldn’t be found, resulting in two ’selves’?
Lady Crystal’s experience is indeed quite ironic.
Fu Qian couldn’t help but feel sentiment at that moment.
Admittedly, immersing in it indeed brings a peculiar feeling, and it’s no wonder Amber’s tone was filled with confusion.
Overall, the circle is truly chaotic.
"Think positively; although it looks like you can’t go back, maybe the Crystal will come inside. Then you can validate the question inside here."
Unintentionally engaging in a ’who am I, who is me’ dilemma, Fu Qian casually comforted, though it sounded like rubbing salt in the wound.
"Additionally, regarding his motives, we can indeed ask."
Before Amber could give her thoughts, Fu Qian had already summoned the Thread of Concern, pulling another figure to the forefront.
"Lady Black Doctor, could you explain?"
...
Eyes tightly closed, with gray marks covering the body and even the left arm being only half.
This time Fu Qian dragged up a human figure submerged under the lake.
The face was unfamiliar, and frankly, at a glance, the state appeared indistinguishable from the others.
Thus, Fu Qian pointing him out as Black Doctor felt somewhat aggressively authoritative.
Unfortunately, despite performing earnestly, Black Doctor was evidently clueless about the power of concern.
Earlier, he was hit once by Thread of Concern, so Fu Qian didn’t even have to exert effort to distinguish, clearly seeing a phantom line pointing to this body.
Yes, the self-destruction earlier didn’t seem so heroic.
Although dying here may still allow resurrection, Lady Black Doctor seemed not as ready to die, having prepared an escape route early on.
And this timid behavior dealt a beautiful backstab to his previous series of actions and words, rendering his motives suddenly inappropriate.
"There are so many people here; I’ve identified him, the chance of bluffing you is indeed very small, right? Are you really going to waste time like this?"
The atmosphere was quiet at that moment; Amber seemed slightly unresponsive to the situation, while the person pulled by the Thread of Concern was still lying there asleep.
In this scenario, Fu Qian just sighed, continuing to remind.
"...How did you know? Who are you really?"
Sincerity wins through, finally, in a moment of patient waiting, the person beneath opened his eyes.
The expression began to animatedly change, and confusion filled the tone.
"Seems like I was the one who asked first."
The person finally admitted his identity, but Fu Qian’s reaction wasn’t polite, slowly removing the mask to reveal a malicious smile.
...
From a while ago until now, Lady Black Doctor had been working hard to maintain the image.
But under pressure, many flaws became apparent.
Until now, the effort was ultimately fruitless.
"Black Doctor... Did you really create that door?"
Even the dazed Amber had reacted, realizing Grand Fate Ming Emperor’s earlier outlandish theory was indeed not untrue.
The Demigod who seemed willing to ’shatter like jade’ actually slyly hid away.
Such behavior undoubtedly stripped him of a certain halo, making any suspicion unreasonable.
"Heh... You could think so."
Perhaps Fu Qian’s demeanor was too imposing, Black Doctor briefly glanced and then averted his gaze, gracefully responding to Amber’s question, once again ’revealing his hand.’
"What was mentioned earlier, most of it was correct. I indeed went there after receiving the Prophet’s last words, but at the time, there were no markings on the wall, nor a door."
Speaking, he stood up, yet maintained the original appearance of the body, Black Doctor continued admitting to opening the door.
"This is why I’m certain Akasha didn’t use that door to come here."
In the next moment, he even blinked at Amber with malice, providing another jab.
Hmm...
Amber remained silent.
On one hand, the statement was hard to refute; the friend’s hope suddenly became more remote.
On the other hand, the continuous changes in situation were overwhelming, her own position equally unclear.
"Besides Akasha, have you ever seen a man named Wei?"
Fu Qian was indifferent to this, suddenly interjecting at a certain moment, inquiring about another name.
