Chapter 1206
Lilith: He's like a luminous being.
"Who are you?!"
Rokubungi Gendo suddenly raised his head, his face still ferocious, the crimson in his eyes still lingering, his roar filled with rage and urgency, his hands clenched into fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white and almost broke, even the unhealed wounds on his body were being torn apart painfully.
He could no longer hold back. The being occupying Rei Ayanami's body was both unfamiliar and eerie, mocking and toying with him, yet refusing to reveal its identity. This unknown torment drove him more mad than any mockery.
Sextant stared intently at Lilith before him, his eyes filled with vigilance and resentment. He needed to know who this woman was.
"Hehehe, you can try to guess."
Lilith chuckled softly, her laughter full of teasing and cunning. She shook her head slightly, her playful gaze undiminished, deliberately dragging out her words, refusing to tell him the answer directly.
Seeing Sextant jumping up and down in frustration yet helpless, she found it even more amusing. Teasing this stubborn fool was the most entertaining thing she had been doing lately.
"That's enough, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you."
Rokubungi Gendo took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the rage and impatience in his heart. His face was so gloomy it could drip water, and his tone was full of impatience and determination.
He didn't have time to deal with this guy anymore, to play guessing games. All he wanted now was to find the power to fight against Choi Myung and to take back Yui Ikari.
"Are you also an enemy of Cui Ming? Then let's cooperate."
He said this crisply and decisively, even with a hint of barely perceptible humility. As long as he could deal with Cui Ming, he was willing to lower himself and cooperate with her, no matter who she was or how strange she was.
In his view, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, even if that "friendship" is so fragile that it is easily broken.
"."
Upon hearing this, Lilith's smile froze instantly, and she fell silent. The playfulness in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by obvious speechlessness, and she even rolled her eyes.
Lilith was actually quite speechless. She realized that Sextant was going to any lengths to oppose Cui Ming.
To deal with Cui Ming, he was willing to set aside his dignity and pride, and even cooperate with a mysterious being of unknown identity who was constantly toying with him. This obsession and madness completely refreshed her understanding.
but
So what?
Lilith shrugged slightly, the speechlessness in her eyes gradually replaced by amusement, and a playful smile appeared on her lips once again.
I was just watching for fun.
Sextant was completely focused on cooperating and doing everything in its power to deal with Cui Ming; these messy thoughts had absolutely nothing to do with Lilith.
She didn't want to help or get involved in anything. As long as she could stand quietly to the side and watch this fool jump around recklessly, getting hurt time and time again, that would be enough to amuse her.
You really want me and Cui Ming to fight? Don't be ridiculous.
Lilith instinctively shrank her shoulders. The thought of facing Cui Ming head-on made the hairs on her body stand on end, and she couldn't help but shiver. A hint of undisguised fear flashed in her eyes, mixed with a sense of awe that she herself was unaware of.
In Lilith's eyes, Cui Ming is like the sun itself!!!
It wasn't the warm, gentle morning sun, but the most intense and dazzling midday sun, with its innate power, its ability to illuminate and destroy everything, so blinding that she dared not look directly at it, so powerful that it made her tremble with fear from the bottom of her heart.
The light was so bright it was blinding, forcing her to instinctively duck and hide. The pure, extreme power and overwhelming aura swept over her, almost shattering and stunning her mind, making her even more cautious with her breathing.
Holy crap! You're telling me this thing is a human?!
Lilith was internally screaming and complaining, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief. She had lived for so long, seen countless powerful apostles and all sorts of strange and bizarre beings, but she had never seen such an outrageous human.
Okay, this thing is indeed human, but it's definitely not like a normal human!
He had the same appearance as a human, with no difference in eyebrows, eyes, or figure, but the power and aura in his bones far surpassed all humans, even far surpassing any apostle she knew. That kind of domineering confidence, that kind of strength that could destroy everything with a wave of his hand, was something that ordinary humans could not possess.
To call him a monster in human skin is too unfair to him—no, he is more terrifying than any monster, the kind of being that can easily crush any resistance.
Lilith also knew of Ultraman's existence.
Those giants from the universe were indeed incredibly powerful, easily able to fight against powerful monsters and apostles, but even so, in her eyes, they were far inferior to even one ten-thousandth of Cui Ming's strength.
But
Lilith frowned slightly, her apprehension deepening. As an apostle, she possessed far superior perception. She could clearly sense that hidden beneath Cui Ming's human form lay something even more terrifying and suffocating—endless despair.
That despair was icy and bone-chilling, as if it could devour all light and drag the whole world into boundless darkness. Just sensing even a trace of it made her feel cold all over and uneasy.
Lilith is really too scared to look now!
She didn't dare to think about Cui Ming any further, and didn't dare to focus her senses on him even slightly, for fear that her probing would alert that terrifying being.
I grass!
Lilith cursed under her breath, her eyes filled with relief and lingering fear. She could vaguely sense that Cui Ming was now, in a sense, in a state of harmonious slumber.
It didn't unleash its full power, nor did it release that endless despair; it simply stayed peacefully in this world, occasionally dealing with monsters and aliens.
This is fine as it is!
Really, that's enough. She asked for nothing more than for Cui Ming to remain in this state and not make any further moves.
Just don't let it explode in this world.
She didn't want to be swallowed by that endless despair, nor did she want to watch the world be completely destroyed by the power that Cui Ming unintentionally unleashed. The consequences of that were something she didn't even dare to imagine.
As for the Human Instrumentality Project, Lilith has already decided to abandon it.
In the past, I might have cared about this plan and thought about fulfilling the mission of the apostle, but now, in the face of the terrifying existence of Cui Ming, everything has become irrelevant.
Damn! There's something even more terrifying outside. Once that person's despair erupts, it will truly be as eternal as heaven and earth!
At that time, there will be no humans, no apostles, no monsters, no world at all. Once Cui Ming's despair gets out of control, it will only drag the entire world down to destruction and into nothingness.
They dragged heaven and earth down with them!
The thought of that apocalyptic scene sent a chill down Lilith's spine. A surge of relief welled up within her; thankfully, Cui Ming was currently asleep, and thankfully, she hadn't been foolish enough to provoke him. (End of Chapter)
