Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 369 - 368 I am not Daniel Wu

"Why do you want to kill me..."

"Save me..."

The soft murmurs spread among the crowd, intensifying their inner restlessness.

Suddenly, the appearance of the Black Armored Man brought a strong distortion phenomenon, and in an instant, everyone felt their Primordial Spirits violently shaking within their Sea of Consciousness.

They started to panic.

"Are we mutating?!"

Just then, a streak of golden light flashed by and the golden Sword Qi, with a clanging sound, struck the Black Armored Man—it was Zhou Bai.

Zhou Bai was seen treating himself with laziness points, suppressing the mutation while simultaneously performing the Sword technique with one hand, his flying sword stabbing consecutively at the Black Armored Man.

However, just as Zhou Bai was about to continue his assault, the Black Armored Man suddenly retreated and fell back into the Abyss, seemingly merging with the darkness, completely disappearing from sight.

At the same time, Xuan Nu had ridden a winged metallic tiger up to the scene.

That tiger was the Heavenly Demon, 'Yun Long,' once modified by Xing Jun, who was the brother of the chairman of the Donghua City Committee. After the mutation, he was transformed into the Heavenly Demon by Xing Jun.

Xuan Nu, looking at Zhou Bai who was unharmed, and then glancing around at the people slowly succumbing to madness, smiled and said, "You are unaffected by the Abyss Nether Dragon Armor... Indeed, you've mutated long ago."

She had brought the Abyss Nether Dragon Armor precisely because she still couldn't fully trust Zhou Bai, and had chosen it as a test.

"Ah!" Song Zhen suddenly raised her head, mouth agape, emitting a series of screams; pieces of scales seemed to be growing on her face as she continually transformed towards the direction of a Human-faced Snake.

She spat out a forked tongue and fiercely fixed her gaze on Qin Tian nearby, her eyes filled with brutality and aggression.

Zhou Bai suppressed his impulse to intervene, displaying a face filled with righteous indignation mixed with a hint of resentment from being deceived, he shouted at Xuan Nu, "What are you doing! Didn't you say you wouldn't harm them?"

Xuan Nu replied, "Don't worry, they're fine. Mutation doesn't complete that easily."

Then, as the Black Armored Man left, the crowd on the ground that had been engulfed in madness had now, one by one, returned to normal, even Song Zhen, who had sprouted scales, had reverted back to her original form, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

But their Primordial Spirits and bodies were weakened, as if they had just recovered from a severe illness.

"The Abyss Nether Dragon Armor can spread distortion and create madness. You and I are unaffected because we have already gone mad," Xuan Nu laughed, her head adorned with red hair waving like a Spirit Snake, and the snake tails forming her lower half coiled up, giving off a sickly beauty when paired with her stunning face.

"Now do you believe it? We are the same, and those humans, those immortals and gods, are our real enemies."

Zhou Bai glared at Xuan Nu, looking at her beautiful visage, thinking to himself: 'Is it really Pei? The principal was supposed to have killed her, yet she's still alive? Is it because of the mutation?'

Facing her, Zhou Bai solemnly said, "I'm not like you, I am still human."

Xuan Nu laughed, "Why resist what's in your heart? Listen to your own voice, unleash your power. Don't fear madness, because madness is the essence of the universe, reason is just a shackle humans place on themselves..."

With Xuan Nu's words, the spiritual energy around them surged, and Zhou Bai felt a tremor in a chord within his mind, unable to help thinking: 'Maybe he's right... Abandon reason, embrace madness...'

"Zhou Bai!" Christina shouted, "Stop getting caught up in the act, quickly treat yourself with laziness points."

Zhou Bai instantly reacted, hurriedly treating himself with laziness points, immediately consuming 1500 laziness points, which, added to the consumption from the earlier battle, left him with 720,000 laziness points.

Cold sweat trickled down Zhou Bai's neck as he recovered, "Is this Xiao Pei's ability? Can she provoke madness in others? It actually cost me 1500 laziness points, even treating the side effect of the Twilight Taoist Skill wasn't this severe."

At this moment, the Mystic Lady's gaze towards Zhou Bai grew even more satisfied; aside from testing him using the Black Armored Man, she had just tested him again using her own abilities.

After all, Zhou Bai was previously an enemy, and she naturally couldn't trust him so quickly; necessary tests were still needed.

'He hasn't gone mad because he's already deep in madness. I am now ninety-nine percent sure that this Zhou Bai is an extremely rare mutation, retaining intelligence and appearance. But a thorough check is still needed, especially since he still identifies strongly with humans; this must be handled with caution.'

The Mystic Lady extended her palm toward Zhou Bai, "Come, Zhou Bai, join us; we are your true kin."

Confusion clouded Zhou Bai's face, while Lin Muqing stood up and shouted, "What are you hesitating for? You are a human, not a mutant…"

The Mystic Lady turned her head and gave Lin Muqing a look, causing Lin Muqing to feel a restlessness surging within her, completely interrupting her words.

Meanwhile, rustling sounds began to emerge from the darkness, as one monstrous snake after another, their bodies covered with limbs, crawled out and enclosed Zhou Bai and the others.

In the deeper darkness, creatures covered in scales, with horns on their heads, oozed pus from their bodies and flashed by intermittently, revealing scaly claws.

These were all mutants cultivated by the Mystic Lady and Wei Cang using Abyss Nether Dragon Armor as a twisted source, possessing not only strong vitality and physical strength but each also possessing unique mutant abilities.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Bai struggled and looked at Xiao Pei, "Let them go, and I will leave with you."

The Mystic Lady shook her head, "I can ensure their safety, but I can't let them go." Although she was ninety-nine percent sure Zhou Bai was a mutant, she still couldn't fully trust him, much less let others go.

Song Zhen incredulously watched the scene unfold and shouted, "Daniel Wu, have you gone mad? You can't go with him; let's fight them."

From beginning to end, Qian Wangsun, who had just been watching silently without speaking, slightly furrowed his brows, recalling Zhou Bai's past, 'Zhou Bai, this guy, he was just born with extraordinary talents and shamelessness. I'm convinced he's not mutated; that's my, Qian Wangsun's, intuition.'

At this moment, Qian Wangsun's Primordial Spirit power was still in action, intentionally sweeping over Zhou Bai's body.

'That's the scent of lying.' Qian Wangsun thought to himself, 'Whenever Zhou Bai says he's handsome, his Primordial Spirit power is in this state.'

'So, is he intentionally deceiving Xiao Pei, pretending to be mutated?'

Qian Wangsun narrowed his eyes and stopped Song Zhen, "Stop talking. The Daniel Wu in front of you isn't the real Daniel Wu anymore. I'm right, aren't I?"

With a look of anger, Qian Wangsun glared at Zhou Bai, "No wonder I felt something off about you before, you monster… You've eaten Daniel Wu, haven't you? You took his identity! That night, I always thought I was mistaken…"

Zhou Bai and Qian Wangsun's eyes met, and in that instant, it seemed as though countless pieces of information were exchanged.

The next moment, Zhou Bai's face showed helplessness, and he sighed softly.

'So they don't know he is Zhou Bai? They really think he's Daniel Wu?' The Mystic Lady had been staring intently at Zhou Bai; at this moment, she seemed to see hesitation, regret, conflict, animosity, and infinite contradictions in his eyes.

She almost felt conflicted for him.

Abruptly, Zhou Bai clenched his cheek and swiftly tore it off, revealing his own face, and said coldly, "Yes, I'm not Daniel Wu at all. I am Zhou Bai."

Simultaneously, streams of Sword Qi burst from Zhou Bai's body, slicing his skin so fiercely that it seemed to flay open.

Accompanying this action, layers of mosaics flickered over Zhou Bai's body, covering him.

It appeared as though he had torn off an outer layer of skin, revealing a body underneath filled with mosaics.

Zhou Bai smiled bitterly, "I didn't want to kill Daniel Wu, but he shouldn't have… seen my true form."
