I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

After that, Lin Ping went to the battlefield, but Huo Xiu Ze found out that the pharmacist had actually set his sights on Huo Guang.

Upon learning the news, Huo Xiu Ze immediately contacted Huo Guang, but because Huo Guang was on the battlefield at the time and due to the harsh environment, communications were blocked and he could not get in touch with him.

In a hurry, he hurried to the battlefield with the crystal stone obtained from the ruins, but he didn't expect that he fell into the trap of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Among the people who entered the ruins at that time, only Huo Xiu Ze and Huo Xuan Shuang were not infected. They later deduced that it must be because of the two crystals they brought out from the ruins.

But so many years have passed, and no matter how hard they try, they have not been able to comprehend the mystery of the crystal.

But by the time Huo Xiu Ze arrived at Huo Guang's location, he was still one step too late.

"When I arrived, your grandfather had already killed all the soldiers who accompanied him. After he regained consciousness, he would rather die than be controlled again, so he asked me to end his life personally."

Huo Xiu Ze was greatly shocked after Huo Guang's death, and this also gave the mastermind behind the scenes an opportunity. Not only was the crystal stone stolen, but the black substance that originally possessed Huo Guang was also transferred to his body.

For a long time afterwards, Huo Xiu Ze was in a daze, sometimes lucid and sometimes confused.

The black substance has been trying to erode his will. Although he has been fighting against it, as the time of being parasitized becomes longer and longer, he sometimes even cannot tell which one is his real self.

Because of this, he didn't dare go home or contact anyone.

In the process of fighting against the black matter over the years, he discovered that this thing had long been out of control and had formed an independent consciousness.

Thinking of this, Huo Xiu Ze suddenly looked at Huo Lin Yuan excitedly: "You must destroy it at all costs!"

After he finished speaking, Qi Yan was horrified to find that the black spikes appeared on his forehead again.

Qi Yan was shocked: "Oh no, the medicine is about to lose its effect!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Xiu Ze let out a painful groan, and the black substance rushed out of his body, as if declaring its sovereignty, and instantly enveloped his entire body.

"Kill me, quickly! Only this way can everything end!" Huo Xiu Ze shouted to Huo Linyuan with his remaining consciousness.

But the next second, he immediately changed his expression: "How dare you! I am your father!"

At this moment, he seemed to be in some kind of madness, with his two faces constantly changing, giving a sense of disconnection.

However, Huo Linyuan and Qi Yan were very clear that it was Huo Xiu Ze's consciousness that was fighting against the black matter.

"Stop struggling. I am you and you are me. We are one. You will never be able to get rid of me!" said the controlled Huo Xiu Ze grimly.

Huo Xiu Ze gritted his teeth: "You're dreaming!"

After saying that, he turned and ran towards the corridor that was bombed into ruins.

Qi Yan was shocked, and vaguely guessed what he was going to do, and her first reaction was to stop him.

Huo Linyuan reacted faster than him, but Huo Xiu Ze seemed determined not to be caught up by them, so he hit the gravel beside him while running, creating obstacles for Huo Linyuan and Qi Yan who were following closely behind him.

When the two men caught up, Huo Xiu Ze had already entered a room that was arranged as a bedroom and activated a powerful barrier.

Since the door was not closed, Huo Linyuan and Qi Yan could clearly see the scene inside.

In the room, Huo Xiu Ze seemed to want to press a button, while the black substance was trying desperately to stop him.

At this time, they each controlled half of the body. From the perspective of Huo Linyuan and Qi Yan, it seemed that Huo Xiu Ze was fighting himself.

"What is that?" Qi Yan asked, pointing at the button that was being fought over.

"Self-destruct device." Huo Linyuan frowned, his face looking very ugly.

So Huo Xiu Ze wanted to activate the self-destruct device in the room, intending to die together with the black matter.

"We have to stop him!" Qi Yan blurted out.

After listening to Huo Xiu Ze's story, Qi Yan's prejudice against him was much less.

Regardless of the past, just based on Huo Linyuan's words "If I must have a father, it can only be Huo Xiu Ze", Qi Yan did not want him to die like this.

How could Huo Linyuan not want to stop it, but after observation, he found that the powerful barrier and the self-destruction program were connected together.

If he forcibly breaks the barrier at this moment, the self-destruction program inside will be activated immediately.

From this, we can see how determined Huo Xiu Ze is to die together with the black matter.

inside the room.

"What are you still resisting? Overthrowing the royal family and standing at the highest point, isn't this what you want most?"

“As long as we become one, all of humanity, no, the entire universe will be at your feet. You will have everything you want: power, beauty, money, the pleasure of looking down on everything…” The black matter kept tempting.

However, Huo Xiu Ze's eyes were particularly determined, and even showed a bit of pity: "You will never understand. How can an alien like you understand human emotions? You can never replace humans, let alone become the master of the universe."

This sentence seemed to have hit the opponent's soft spot. The black substance was instantly enraged, and suddenly expanded the next moment. The black quicksand split into several strands at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then ran wildly around the room.

"Really? What if I destroy him?"

Suddenly, a stream of quicksand hit the wall hard.

Then, the surface of the wall fell off, revealing a vertically placed transparent ice coffin. Inside the ice coffin, Si Lin was "standing" inside with his eyes closed.

Outside the barrier, Qi Yan and Huo Linyuan were both stunned when they saw this scene unexpectedly.

Si Lin's expression was peaceful. If it weren't for the big hole in his chest, he would have looked like he was asleep.

Qi Yan was stunned and didn't know how to react. Thinking of the conversation with Si Lin that day, a deep sadness rose in his heart.

Si Lin is dead...

Trying hard to digest this fact, he couldn't help but look at Huo Linyuan beside him worriedly.

At this moment, Huo Linyuan lowered his eyes, making it impossible to tell his emotions, but Qi Yan knew that he was sad, and... angry.

Qi Yan could clearly sense that the mental power he released was increasing. The next moment, cracks appeared on the transparent barrier...

Inside the room, the black quicksand did not retreat after hitting the wall, but instead condensed into a long knife and chopped straight towards the ice coffin.

The protective barrier outside the ice coffin shattered, and then the black substance said sinisterly:

"You have spared no effort to resist me, only because of him. As long as he is destroyed, you will have no reason to fight me anymore."

Over the years, it has been trying every means to invade Huo Xiu Ze's mind. It had succeeded that day, but who knew that it would fail in the end.

This directly resulted in it not only failing to completely control Huo Xiu Ze, but sometimes being suppressed by the other party's will.

After these days of testing, it concluded that every time Huo Xiu Ze's consciousness was dominant, it was related to the corpse in the coffin.

As he spoke, the black quicksand instantly turned into countless spikes, aiming at Si Lin's body.
