Chapter 1471 [Extra] Deng Shentong 1 (2 more)
Amber looked ahead in astonishment, at the horrific scene that looked like hell.
Deng Shentong was wearing a silver combat uniform and holding a long sword, but there was no trace of blood on his body.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and she stared at the man in front of her in disbelief, and subconsciously took two steps back.
"Who...are you?"
Deng Shentong looked at her and asked calmly, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question? Who are you?"
Amber's voice weakened a little. She lowered her head and murmured, "I'm not trying to hurt you. You wanted to come here!"
Deng Shentong said: "I know, so I don't blame you for this."
"It's just that you're weird."
He looked Amber up and down.
"I can now roughly determine what your abilities are."
"When I first saw you, I felt very strange. Why do you make me feel so close to you?"
He sighed and said, "Since the incident two years ago, I started to learn from that man and be wary of everything. But you broke it easily."
"From the beginning, I was wondering in my mind if this had anything to do with your abilities."
"Moreover, a weak woman like you fell into the hands of those vicious wandering spirits, but was not harmed by them at all. This is enough to make me suspicious."
Listening to what Deng Shentong said, Amber quietly clenched her fists, but still kept her head down and said nothing.
She did not flee in panic, firstly because it was useless as she did not have enough means to escape from the powerful alien; secondly, she was not afraid of the man in front of her.
Deng Shentong continued, "At first, I could understand that the wandering spirits thought you were of great value, so they didn't attack you. But now, when I see that these big crocodiles didn't attack you, I understand."
He smiled slightly and looked at Amber with deep eyes.
"Your ability is to gain the favor of others, so that people, even strange beasts, will not be hostile to you. Right?"
"So you won't worry about being in danger no matter what the situation is."
Amber's face turned even paler.
She bit her lip and suddenly raised her head to look at Deng Shentong.
"Do you mean to say that you want to kill me?"
Deng Shentong had indeed predicted her abilities.
Her ability is called "In the Name of Love". In this chaotic and dangerous apocalypse, everyone may die at any time.
Amber is afraid of death, and this strong sense of crisis gives her the ability to be loved and protected by everyone.
Deng Shentong raised his eyebrows.
"I said, coming here is my own choice, so I won't blame you."
He looked at Amber deeply and said, "But, I'm afraid your ability is not that simple, right?"
With such ability, it is not even qualified to be designated as an escort for a B-level mission in Blizzard City.
Amber was speechless. There was no way she would reveal her information to others. This was an instinct she developed in the apocalypse.
Deng Shentong waved his hand at her: "Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it. I'm going to find Wuliang, if you're scared, leave now!"
He turned around and continued walking towards the front of the Ice Flower Swamp.
Just after he walked a dozen steps away, Amber's voice came from behind him.
"Hey! I...I can lead the way for you!"
Deng Shentong turned around and saw Amber chasing him breathlessly. There was a struggle in her eyes, but then she became determined.
"Huh? Why? Aren't you one of Wuliang's subordinates?"
Deng Shentong looked at her in surprise.
Amber shook her head vigorously.
"No, I'm not his subordinate! It's just...if you can kill Wuliang, I can help you."
Deng Shentong stared at her.
"If you want to follow me, you have to be honest with me."
"I don't want the people around me to be hard to tell whether they are friends or foes."
Amber clenched her fists and finally slowly told Deng Shentong the truth of the matter.
"Wangliang is the lord of this area. All humans living here must obey his rule. So I am not Wuliang's subordinate. To be precise, I am just his slave."
When Amber mentioned the ghost, her voice became a little colder.
"He is an extremely perverted monster. He kills, abuses, and tortures. In his eyes, everyone around him is just a toy."
Deng Shentong touched his nose and said, "So that's why you chose to escape, right? Then why do you want to come back now?"
Amber sneered.
"Do you think Blizzard City is a good place? A stranger like me without shelter will probably become someone else's toy no matter where I appear."
"There are few people in the entire Jiangnan region who don't know about the rumors about Blizzard City, right? You've used many wandering aliens for experiments."
Deng Shentong had no way to refute this matter.
Both Zhu Zheng’s experimental center and Deng’s Technology have conducted a large amount of human research after the end of the world.
The best choice is undoubtedly those aliens from the outside world who do not obey the management of Blizzard City.
Amber lowered her head and continued, "When the wandering soul came to me, I knew that Wuliang was angry about my escape. And you were stubborn and wanted to find him, saying that you wanted to clear him out."
Deng Shentong suddenly understood.
"So, you are actually using me as a token of your allegiance in exchange for Wuliang's forgiveness?"
Amber smiled bitterly, with a hint of heartbreaking despair in her eyes.
"I don't want to die! But I can only be a vine, relying on the existence of others."
As she spoke, she looked at Deng Shentong with hope in her eyes.
"But you are different from those I met before. Maybe you really have the ability to kill monsters!"
She walked up to Deng Shentong and reached out to grab his sleeve.
At this moment, Deng Shentong felt a strong feeling of loneliness and fear spreading from the girl's body and into his heart.
"Please, save me!"
Deng Shentong sighed helplessly.
"It is indeed a very useful ability, but I now know your ability, so please don't influence me casually."
Amber let go of her hand embarrassedly: "Sorry."
"But," Deng Shentong smiled and rubbed her head with his hand: "I promise you, I will kill that guy Wuliang!"
Amber raised her head and looked up at Deng Shentong.
"Will you win?"
"Will win!"
Deng Shentong smiled, his eyes filled with confidence without any hesitation.
He turned around and walked towards the front of the Ice Flower Swamp with firm steps.
Amber quickly followed him, bit her lip, and finally chose to believe the man in front of her.
