Finally I can release myself, although dying is disgusting. I imagined in my mind how many pieces that madman with a chainsaw would become before he gives up.

"Are you scum?"

My gaze returned to the anti-theft door that was already in ruins, and there was still some fear in my heart, "Oh my, don't we have any time left?"

Crash! The door was completely smashed, and the enraged monster raised the saw blade in his hand and menacingly broke into the room. As I stabbed the machete into my shoulder, I was still thinking, can pain really make one forget fear? I began to feel excited!

I pulled out the machete to protect myself and before the enemy could react to my self-harm behavior, he decided to strike first.

"This is the meaning of my existence!"

I no longer cared how much stronger the enemy in front of me was, and I angrily rushed at him with the machete in hand.

"For protection!"

Suddenly, a girl's laughter rang in my ears like silver bells, "Daddy, you really like being a hero, don't you?"

At the moment when the chainsaw and machete clashed, dazzling sparks flew, and the machete remained intact in my hand, making me both shocked and delighted.

The impact of the machete pushed back the chainsaw man, and strange symbols on the blade flickered with an eerie light.

"How... how is this possible?"

The chainsaw man exclaimed in horror, and as he raised the chainsaw preparing to strike horizontally, I thought, is he going to chop me in half?

"Ah!"

My face turned pale, but before the chainsaw could touch my waist, it fell to the ground.

"Huh?"

The chainsaw man's chainsaw was cleanly cut off from the base by the machete, this small machete could cut iron like mud!

"Wow!" like meeting a treasure, I carefully touched the blade and then with force sprinting towards the staircase attempting to break open an escape route.

I took a gamble, feeling ecstatic, if this little thing could shatter the chainsaw, it would definitely cut through the iron chains on the iron door.

Click! The iron chains shattered.

Half of the blade fell to the ground, and the runes on the remaining blade disappeared in an instant.

The chainsaw man and I both stared at the broken pieces of the machete on the ground, the latter chuckled, saying, "I really assumed too much."

Although the chainsaw man had lost his weapon, the odds of the fight... even if it was a bare-handed battle, it wouldn't take more than ten seconds for him to turn into pulp!

"Argh, go... die!"

The chainsaw man's heavy fist struck towards my temple, and I felt my whole body ice-cold.

Clatter clatter clatter!

It's been raining heavily outside for many days, showing no sign of stopping.

The nightly rain season made the air heavy, even the once vibrant garden now appeared desolate.

It's time for dinner, and classmates repeated their daily routine of leaving the classroom to eat at the cafeteria. Inside the classroom, there was only a curly-haired girl sitting there, tapping her lunchbox with chopsticks.

The classroom now felt spacious and quiet after a long time, but the girl's mood seemed restless, unable to calm down.

"Ah, where is he? He's not the type to wander around normally, and besides, I personally delivered his meal, doesn't he know that!"

Yu Nai occupied Yu Tomo's seat alone, complaining about him to himself.

Boom!

As lightning struck across the sky, Nihai Yukari's heart clenched, feeling that something bad was about to happen.

Ugh! Are you joking?

Boom!

The junior rushed into Elena's bio lab, but apart from the ventilation duct that had already been sealed off at the beginning, there was no other way to go down here.

The elevator's bottom floor was actually stuck on this level's lab, so the junior decided to take a look inside.

The elevator was brightly lit at first, but the moment he stepped in, the power suddenly went out.

"What's wrong with this elevator?"

The junior frantically pounded on the sturdy elevator door with his fists and angrily shouted, "What the hell is going on here, can someone tell me?"

"Zone D5 is in lockdown. Elena's elite armed team is preparing to break in through the walls!" finally came the voice from the outside.

But at the same time, a terrible nightmare was about to unfold...

With no power, the elevator was pitch black, leaving the junior stomping angrily inside.

"Damn elevator, why don't you move already!"

Smack! Smack! Smack!

"Could it be that this elevator really isn't working? Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!"

After a moment of shaking, the elevator suddenly plummeted rapidly downward...

"L... Lieutenant!"

When Yukari came to her senses, she found a young girl lying dead on the ground, her hand tightly gripping a light energy gun handmade by the Elena Military Group Arsenal.

"Hey, miss, wake up!"

Yukari anxiously shook her, trying to wake her up but with no response. Had she not been with anyone? Or did they accidentally get separated?

Looking around the short-haired girl, Yukari tried to find other figures, but all in vain.

"This is so troublesome!" Yukari stomped her foot in front of the now broken elevator door, her face turning purple with anger.

In desperation, Yukari took the gun from the short-haired girl's hand and whispered in her ear, "I'll borrow this gun for now since I am also a Phantom God's Adapt."

After that, she dialed the medical team at Elena: "I have a friend with a minor injury. I'll put her in D4 area first. Quickly send some medical staff to take care of her!"

After taking care of everything, she leaped into the hidden passage leading to Zone D5.

Sliding down the well wall, she found herself facing the emergency escape door of the basement!

"The door is locked from the inside?"

No matter how Yukari tried to turn the mechanical door's switch, she couldn't open it. In anger, she kicked the door in the center and completely dislodged it from the wall.

After the smoke cleared, a collapsed wall and a shattered basement with broken tables and chairs appeared before her eyes.

"Cough, cough, cough... What... what happened here?"

The strong smell of blood made Yukari unable to open her eyes and kept gagging.

Since last month, the headquarters of Elena had been unable to contact the staff here, but the orders from above had always been to seal off the area and stay put until now, when they finally ordered an investigation.

"Are there still survivors?!"

Yukari immediately became alert, tightly holding the gun in her hand, and slowly stepping through the lobby.

She didn't know what had happened here, but the bloodstains on the ground that had yet to evaporate seemed to tell a tale of a terrible past.

"Oh, this place is so disgusting..." Yukari covered her nose tightly with her left hand.

The tones in the whole room dimmed, hoping that nothing worse than now would happen.

"What?"

Edward suddenly fell from his chair to the ground, with a look of fear on his face that had never been seen before.

"Why... why did you let her go to Sector D5 alone?!"

He was almost incoherent, so he vented all his anger on his subordinate.

Edward threw him to the ground and warned him, "Quickly send more people to Sector D5, be quick!"

"Yes!"

"Oh, and also!" Edward added, "Go to the control center in D5, use disinfectant to quickly clean up the infected in Sector D5."

At this moment, he was anxious, fearing that something unexpected might happen if delayed.

How could she end up in that kind of place?

Edward slumped into a chair, feeling despondent that the important experiment in Sector D5 of Elena Group had ended over a trivial matter?

"Sometimes you have to make a small sacrifice, damn it!"

He felt like God was playing a cruel joke on him. If everything could be as easy as imagined, there wouldn't be so many troubles.

The D5 sector of Elena Group was almost in ruins after the order was given, and Edward rushed to the control center at the first opportunity.

"Quick, open the monitoring system for Sector D5, I need more detailed information."

"Uh... sir..." the monitoring personnel hesitated.

"What's the problem, speak up!"

Edward, with arms crossed, was impatient. Time was exceptionally urgent now, as more lives could be lost if delayed!

"The level of danger of the specimens in Sector D5 is significant," the staff shook their head, "we don't have access to enter Sector D5."

After hearing the current situation, Edward fell into brief contemplation; ultimately, using the abilities of the Phantom God was necessary to completely eradicate the heretics.

Finally, he slowly opened his mouth, seemingly preparing to compromise with reality: "Phan..."

"Hold on!"

Before Edward could turn around, the man sitting in front of the monitor had stopped him.

"Sir, the situation has changed!"

(The dark hell)

I used to believe that we could choose to be a beloved hero or a complete villain.

But why?

I don't even have the power to choose...

"Hey, Juxi, I'm hungry! What should we eat today?"

"Go to sleep quickly, or you'll catch a cold like this."

"Uh, then what else can I say? Thank you, Xi."

"Oh, I'm just petty; you went into my room, so naturally I should spend more time in your room."

Everything seemed so natural, and the moments with Sister Yukari only became so clear just before death.

Heh, is it true as the legends say, that people go to heaven or hell after death?

Yes, I did catch a glimpse of the future, and everything was caused by me.

But I'm a victim too, and I regret it so much; how ironic...

Although nothing has happened yet, I already feel regret. Isn't it ridiculous? I can't even decide on my own life and death, isn't that laughable enough?

This terrible nightmare seems endless; I can no longer enjoy that carefree part that belongs to me.

If I were to meet God, I would say to Him, "I just want to have a peaceful sleep tonight, really... I'm so tired... so tired, I need a break!"

"Hey... Are you okay, wake up... Hey?"

Huh, who is calling out to me?
