Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

Sir Lobelin sighed and shook his head. "I am such a failure as a father. I should have spent more time with her, but now I have to put the burden of the family on my daughter's shoulders ahead of time."

Sophia, the head maid, finally showed an emotional expression: "Blake, don't say that! Do you think you will definitely die?"

She was so excited that she even called out her master's name.

However, Sir Lobelin did not care about his head maid's misconduct. After all, to him, Sophia was not just a maid.

"Calm down, Sophia. I've told you before that this is just a hedging measure. After all, you have to know that what we are going to do will be an unparalleled miracle throughout the entire history of mankind. The closer we get to the final moment, no one can guarantee what will happen." Sir Lobelin comforted his head maid, and he even smiled kindly.

"But I know you never care about any heroic deeds, you just want to see her again." Because she knew what was about to happen, Ms. Sophia, who never showed the depth of her emotions, rarely showed her emotions. "I won't persuade you again, because I know you will never listen. Blake, I know you too well. Just like before, I will accompany you this time."

Another explosion was heard. The location of the explosion should be not far from Sir Lobelin's study, so that the two people in the study could feel the vibration.

"No, this time is different from before." Sir Lobelin smiled apologetically - there were not many people in this world who deserved his apology. "Sophia, you have to go with Anna and return to the family island together."

The head maid's face changed drastically: "No! Blake! How could you!"

"Can you bear to let Anna face the wolves of her family and the church alone?" Sir Lobelin interrupted the head maid. "You should know that Anna shouldn't have to face those wolves, but I have to give her weapons and power to survive in this damn world! I'm a selfish guy, so I can't give up the plan, but it's related to 'God' after all. As a mortal, I can't predict the consequences of this matter, so I have to prepare for the worst."

In Sir Lobelin's arrangement, there was indeed no plan to let Anna take over early, but as the plan progressed, the Sir gradually saw the uncontrollable risks behind this matter - it was a plan to reverse life and death, which had long been beyond the power that mortals could grasp.

"His body has been revived, and the plan is progressing steadily." Sir Lobelin stood up from behind the desk. "Since those lunatics are here, let them stay. Isn't it what they expect to see the glory of God?"

Sophia closed her eyes and was silent for a long time, then said, "Yes, my master."

After saying that, the head maid turned and left the study. Sir Lobelin was the only one left in the room. The light in the room cast a dark shadow behind him, like a lonely ghost.

He could imagine that the outside world must have become a mess. The attack by the Destroyer Faction was within his expectations, and there was even a hint of deliberate... connivance.

"The food intake for his birth is not enough. You came just in time. I don't need to worry about it anymore." The middle-aged man flipped through the photo album and stroked his wife's smiling face in the photo. "Chloe, the actors on the stage are all here. This boring drama can finally begin."

His coming was bound to be accompanied by chaos and fear.

……

Chu Xiao and Ruan Mengmeng had already left the room with Eta. The peace on the ship had been completely broken. The power outage and explosion made the screams in the dark seem particularly harsh.

They had originally planned to take action within the next two days, but they didn't expect that the opportunity they had been waiting for for so long would come so soon.

Several people did not hesitate, because this opportunity of chaos was fleeting, and Chu Xiao did not want to lose the chance to escape because of hesitation.

He could probably guess who was behind the attack, probably the so-called doomsday sect. To Chu Xiao, this was a dog-eat-dog fight between the sects, and it would be best if the dogs' brains were beaten out and they didn't care about him. The only thing that worried him was Anna, but with her father's protection, Anna should be fine.

"Brother Xiao, look over there." Ruan Mengmeng pulled Chu Xiao's sleeve and pointed to the sea.

On the dark sea, more than a dozen speedboats were rapidly closing in, like a swarm of ants attacking an elephant. Their insiders on the ship were constantly creating chaos, and they didn't know who the other party was. They were able to cut off the power supply of the ship and prevent the security soldiers from reacting in time.

Chu Xiao didn’t think that Sir Lobelin would fail because of this attack, but looking at the current situation, he was afraid that he would suffer heavy losses.

At this time, the roar of propellers came from overhead. Chu Xiao raised his head and saw several helicopters on the ship taking off and then quickly diving into the night.

Chu Xiao didn’t think much about where the helicopter was going. What he had to do now was to get to the dock as soon as possible.

"Brother Xiao, there is a power outage on the ship now. Can this authority card still be used?" Ruan Mengmeng suddenly asked.

"Please don't worry." It was Etta who answered the question. "The Nibelungen has another backup power system, so the dock can still operate normally."

Chapter 86: Obsession

"How could he do this!" Anna in the helicopter roared like an enraged young lion.

When the accident happened on the Nibelungen, she was immediately taken to a safe house and was closely protected by a group of guards, but soon Sofia came in with her people and without saying a word, she pulled Anna onto the ship's helicopter.

It was on the plane that Sofia told Anna that she would be taken to an island managed by her family.

Anna certainly wanted to leave this damn ship and the "killing" job she was forced to do. However, this sudden "transfer" successfully made Anna furious. Returning to the family island, her chances of escaping became even slimmer. After all, the Nibelungen was currently anchored close to the land, while the family island was in the middle of the ocean.

Sophia was surprised at the aura Anna displayed, and felt a little comforted: although the "seeing blood" in the past few days was a bit cruel to this girl, the effect was very quick. After all, Anna was a member of the Lobelin family.

"Sophia! Tell me what happened!" the little lion growled.

The head maid looked at the Nibelungen, which had already gone far away, with a gloomy expression. Anna was furious and demanded an explanation, and the people on the helicopter at the moment were all trustworthy confidants.

Sophia sighed and finally said, "Your father wants to resurrect your mother."

……

This is a very common story. Many years ago, a man who was born noble and wealthy lost his wife. No matter how rich he was, he could not stop death from taking his beloved away.

The man was in great pain, because he loved his wife deeply. If he was an ordinary person, he might have lost weight every day as he missed his wife, until he got over the sad memories or sunk into despair. But he was not an ordinary person. The man was exposed to the dark side of the world, and his family had always been inextricably linked with an organization.

Sophia had no idea what kind of psychological changes Sir Lobelin had gone through after coming into contact with the Order. When she saw her master again, the elegant nobleman's eyes were already burning with crazy flames, and his longing for his wife had become a terrible obsession that was cast into his heart.

Sir Lobelin just told her: God really exists.

From that day on, this infatuated man stepped out from behind the scenes and began to take the initiative to participate in various actions of the cult, and gradually climbed to a high position within the cult by using the power of his family. Climbing to the position of bishop in a crazy organization like the cult is naturally impossible for a good person to do.

Over the course of several years, Sophia watched her master change from a gentle, elegant and proud nobleman into a cold and cruel bishop who was indifferent to life due to madness and obsession. Except for his deep affection for his wife and the last bit of warmth he retained towards his family, he seemed like a completely different person.

……

"He wasn't like this originally..." Sophia looked at Anna with a wry smile, "When Chloe was still around, he was even a somewhat shy guy, always being led by your mother by the nose."

Anna was not very old when her mother died. Over the years, her memory has become a little fuzzy, and she can no longer remember what kind of person her father was.

"And then...what exactly is he going to do?" Anna bit her lip gently. This was something she had never heard of in the past, and she couldn't help feeling heavy in her heart.

Anna couldn't imagine how desperate the man was when his mother died.

"How did you do it... Well, I remember that in the popular novels or animations in the past, there were often lines like this," Sophia said, "For example, 'For you, I am willing to make the world my enemy' or 'For you, I am willing to destroy the entire world'."

These rather "middle school" lines sounded out of place when spoken by the serious and even somewhat old-fashioned Sophia.

"...I never expected to hear these lines from you." Anna said.

"Why not? After all, I was young once." Sophia smiled, but her expression soon turned into nostalgia. "Of course these words sound childish now, but your father really did it."

Sophia looked back at the Nibelungen, which had disappeared into thin air. "Between the world and your mother, Blake chose your mother, even at the cost of destroying the world."

……

Ser Black Lorbelin had never joined the Order for power or wealth—he already had those things.

He needed the technology of the cult, the biological technology that the cult possessed, so that he could repair the body of his wife Chloe, so that her remains could remain active for a long time to come, making it a perfect container. However, this was not resurrection, the repaired remains were just an empty shell, and even if it was given will, it was just an artificial person with the appearance of his wife.

Reversing life and death is an authority that only gods can wield. It just so happens that there is indeed a "god" in the cult... a god that existed before birth but has not yet been born.

Therefore, the second thing the Jazz have to do is to provide "God" with soil that is sufficient to carry its power, that is, to let their God "grow".

This is the truth of the "Day of Manifestation". The doomsday virus spreads all over the world, making all of humanity a hotbed for the birth of "gods"! Let humans all over the world provide nutrients for the gods that exist in their sea of ​​consciousness!

In this matter, Sir Lobelin can be said to have made "great contributions". He is undoubtedly one of the culprits who destroyed this world! But his purpose was only to resurrect his wife.

However, this alone is not enough. After the Day of Manifestation is completed, the Jazz's plan finally came to the third stage, which is also the most critical step to resurrect Chloe.

However, this final step is also an extremely dangerous taboo for the cult. Even as a bishop, he must complete it in a place away from the cult's sight.

Therefore, he chose to complete this final miracle on the ship designed by his wife during her lifetime.

God descends.

……

Anna was a little speechless. Her mouth felt very dry. The information Sophia threw out made her feel dizzy.

She didn't even have time to think about the existence of "God", but suddenly felt that the man who was almost driven crazy by obsession was somewhat pitiful. He took on the great sin of destroying the world, but just for a not-so-great goal.

"...This is not a reason to forgive him...He is still an evil executioner." Anna didn't know why she was crying, and she said this with a bit of weakness, "He will go to hell, he will definitely..."

"Of course, this reason won't change anything. But I don't think he ever cares. That's just the kind of person he is."

"Is 'God's Descent' dangerous?" Anna found her voice was weak and trembling. She held Sophie's arm tightly. The girl actually had a guess. If it wasn't dangerous, her father wouldn't have sent her away in such a hurry.

"We once thought that everything was under control, but as the plan progressed, we discovered uncontrollable factors. From that time on, your father decided that you should immediately learn how to inherit his power and status, even if it meant using cruel methods such as forcing things to happen..." Sophia's voice was trembling, as if she might cry at any time. "After all, he was plotting against the gods in the form of a mortal."

"Dad... he may not be in trouble, right?" Anna's eyes were almost begging.

"Of course, he was in a hurry to send you away just to avoid the worst situation. After all, he didn't want you to be in danger." Sophia comforted, but this comfort seemed extremely pale.

Anna's arms dropped, her eyes were dull, her whole body was trembling, and her tears rolled down like beads from a broken string.

She suddenly ran to the cabin, shouting like crazy: "You are lying to me! You are lying to me! Let me go back! Let me go back quickly! Dad needs me! I have to be with him! Let me go back to the boat quickly!"

However, Sophia was prepared. The head maid held Anna tightly and let Anna struggle desperately. In the end, the girl could only lie in the arms of the head maid and cry loudly.

"It's okay, Anna, pray to God." Sofia stroked the girl's golden hair, "Pray that everything goes well for him and that he can come back to us."

(ps: digging a hole is fun, filling it is tiring...)

Chapter 87: Acquaintance

Chu Xiao, who was preparing to find an opportunity to escape on the Nibelungen, ran into trouble.

The group of crazy people on the speedboat were moving much faster than expected. Because of the sabotage caused by the insiders on the ship, the group of people successfully boarded the ship with almost no hindrance.

"Where did those people from the security department go?" Although he was not a member of the Nibelungen, Chu Xiao still couldn't help but complain. This group of people who seemed so martial on weekdays actually allowed outsiders to invade the ship so easily.

Explosions and gunshots rang out one after another, followed by shrill screams and cries.

This is the most common and normal scenery in the doomsday world. The night painted with fear and blood cruelly punctured the Nibelungen's extravagant dream that had lasted for several months.

Chu Xiao and the two girls tried to avoid the fierce fighting area and approached the dock as quickly as possible. However, as they went deeper into the hull, Chu Xiao found that the number of bloodstains and broken limbs on the ground continued to increase, and even zombie corpses appeared, dragging half of their bodies and crawling towards Chu Xiao with roars.

He stomped the zombie's head to pieces, and looked at the white brain fluid flowing all over the floor with a stern look. With the dim emergency light, the entire corridor was filled with a large number of corpses, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and an unsettling heat. The corpses died in a very miserable way, like toys that had been ravaged by naughty children. There was hardly a complete corpse to be seen, and they were all torn into pieces by some terrible force.

Those soldiers of the Destroyer Faction had just boarded the ship, it was impossible for them to rush to such a place so quickly. Besides, it didn't seem like these people died from bullets.

"Mengmeng, be careful!" Chu Xiao lowered his voice and warned his girl, "I'm afraid there are some difficult things here."

"Don't worry," Ruan Mengmeng held the handle of the knife and showed a sharp smile in the dim light, "I've rested for so long, I can just try to see if this knife is sharp enough."

At this moment, the girl blossomed with her original charm. She was not supposed to be a delicate collection kept in the boudoir. Only on the battlefield could Ruan Mengmeng's charm be released to the greatest extent.

Chu Xiao rubbed his face and found a man who looked like a guard among the pile of corpses. He also found a usable pistol near the remains of the corpses. There was also a rifle in the blood and minced meat, but the gun body had been severely deformed and turned into scrap metal.

The pistol was covered with sticky blood and flesh, making Chu Xiao feel very uncomfortable.

"Brother Xiao, are you sure you want to use this thing?" Ruan Mengmeng knew very well how terrible Chu Xiao's shooting skills were. How could he still have the mind to make fun of him in such a dangerous situation?

Chu Xiao tapped the girl's head gently with his clean hand and complained, "It's better than nothing. At times like this, you should at least have a weapon in your hand."

Ruan Mengmeng grinned, stuck out her tongue, and smiled cutely.

At this time, Aita came closer and handed Chu Xiao a magazine and a baton that he found among the corpses: "Master, you should be able to use these things."

"Thank you for your help, Eta." Chu Xiao pinched Eta's smooth cheek.

The flesh residue on the magazine and baton had been wiped off by Etta. Chu Xiao held the metal baton and tried to swing it a few times. He felt that it was quite heavy and was quite satisfied.

"Brother Xiao, why do I feel something is wrong?" Although she said so, the girl's face did not show any pressure, but seemed quite excited. "Isn't there a saying in the gaming circle? 'There must be supplies before a big battle'. We may encounter a 'boss battle' ahead."

"Don't say such unlucky words," Chu Xiao said with a wry smile, "I don't want to encounter any monsters."

However, Chu Xiao himself knew that judging from the state of the dismembered bodies, the culprit who caused all this was not far away from them.

"Damn it, the casino just had an incident, and now there's such a big commotion. Those people don't intend to let people have a chance to breathe..." Chu Xiao's shoes stepped into the blood, feeling like stepping into a muddy swamp. He still remembered the scene when he walked here before, the ground was still dry and clean, and there were well-dressed passengers around.

However, this sudden attack also created an opportunity for Chu Xiao and his team. However, it was impossible to make any careful plans in such a hurry. Now that they had started, they could only take it one step at a time.

Ruan Mengmeng and Chu Xiao walked side by side in front, Chu Xiao held Etta's hand with one hand. The maid's expression was as calm as ever. Facing the bloody scene that looked like a picture of hell, she did not show any panic or fear. However, Chu Xiao was busy being alert to the situation around him, so he did not notice that Etta's eyes only stayed on him, and then there would be a hint of excitement in her eyes, although it was not obvious.

The gunshots in the distance became more and more intense. It should be that the people from the security department have started a formal confrontation with the enemy. This is exactly what Chu Xiao expected. Only when the people from the security department were pinned down, they would have a chance to slip away.

"Brother Xiao, look over there." Ruan Mengmeng pulled the corner of Chu Xiao's clothes and pointed at a woman lying in the corner.

She was very conspicuous because among the many pieces of flesh and corpses, this body was actually intact. Judging from the other party's clothes, this should be a guest on the ship. There was nothing special about it, but it had obviously lost its vital signs, but it did not turn into a zombie.

"Master, she has been eaten." Etta said softly.

Chu Xiao's eyes were serious: "What do you mean? What ate it? And what did it eat?"

Aita frowned slightly in pain. This was the first time Chu Xiao saw such an expression on Aita's face: "...by the god who is about to be...born."

She seemed to be trying hard to recall something, and even her body began to shake, and an abnormal flush appeared on her fair and delicate face.

Although Chu Xiao didn't quite understand, it was obvious that something was wrong with Eta's condition.
