Mu Tong had already lost his desire to live and wanted to die, but he did not expect Hua Teng to use such a sinister method to torture himself. The intense pain aroused his survival instinct, so Mu Tong held back his cough and shouted,"Boss Hua!" Cloud Butterfly Battle Armor is on me. Do you want to burn the Cloud Butterfly Battle Armor with me?”
When Hua Teng heard that, he immediately sobered up and hurriedly put out the fire. He sneered and said,"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten that you still have the Cloud Butterfly Armor! However, even if I don't burn you to death, I won't let you off!”
"Boss Hua! Even if I don't die in your hands today, I will die in this deep forest. Anyway, I will die. To me, it doesn't matter how I die! My only wish is to leave this 'Cloud Butterfly Battle Armor' intact in this world, because this is Guo Xing's relic before his death, I can't let it be destroyed with me!”
At this moment, Hua Teng had already put Mu Tong down. He untied the rope and forcefully removed the Cloud Butterfly Armor from Mu Tong's body. Then, he put it on himself. Finally, he raised the shotgun again and pointed it at Mu Tong's forehead. He said fiercely,"Mu Tong! Thank you for preserving a complete Cloud Butterfly Battle Armor for this world. I thank you on behalf of mankind. Now that your mission is over, I'll send you to meet Guoxing!”
After saying that, Hua Teng was about to pull the trigger.
Mu Tong closed his eyes, shook his head and sighed."Without me, you wouldn't be able to turn on the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit' at all!”
" Humph..." Hua Teng snorted and said,""I knew you were going to play tricks and use this reason to fool me!‘Cloud Butterfly Battle Armor is: Do you think I don't know that? When you reach the netherworld, help me tell Guoxing that technology is used to rule the world, not to fall in love. Guoxing is a short-sighted person. He will never understand this principle and waste all his skills. Therefore, God has opened his eyes and let this technology fall into my hands. Let me inherit his skills and let me rule this world!”
" Heh…" Mu Tong smiled contemptuously and continued,""Boss Hua! I always thought that I was the most shameless person in the world, but after hearing what you said today, I admit defeat! Piracy, technology plagiarism, and other acts of theft, you can actually make it sound so high-sounding in your mouth, making all of humanity wet their pants! I really want to know what you have to say to Sister Shanshan. Why don't you say it together?"
Hearing Mu Tong's question, Hua Teng let out a long sigh and sat opposite Mu Tong. He was silent for a long time, and a few drops of tears fell. Finally, he opened his mouth and said,"I'm sorry, Shanshan…I'm sorry, Shanshan…I'm sorry…I like Shanshan so much. If she was willing to listen to me, we might have gotten married a long time ago. We might have had many children now, but she refused to listen to me.……”
As Hua Teng spoke, he started to cry. His cries became louder and more miserable. He roared at Mu Tong,"Tell me, why won't Shanshan listen to me?……At that time, I loved Shanshan so much! Uncle Ni has already acknowledged me and encouraged me to pursue Shanshan, but Shanshan is always lukewarm to me…I advised her to take this technology back to China to start a business, but she refused to listen to me.……What's wrong with us returning to China to start a business, get married, have children, and be together for the rest of our lives? Why won't she listen to me? Tell me about it…"
Mu Tong didn't expect Hua Teng to be so agitated. He cried like a child, shouting himself hoarse and tears streaming down his face.
Mu Tong leaned back against the tree and looked up at the sky. She then looked down at Hua Teng's tears and said,""You're a cold-blooded animal. You'll never understand Sister Shanshan's thoughts. She's always loved Guoxing. She never loved you at all. She didn't want to disobey her father's orders, so she never rejected you clearly. She's always loved Guoxing.”
"But I'm better than Guoxing. I'm more educated than Guoxing. Shanshan and I have been classmates for five years. I take care of her more than Guoxing. How is Guoxing better than me? How is it good…"
" I couldn't understand the question you asked in the past, but now, I finally understand. Guoxing is a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times better than you…"
Hua Teng stood up from the ground and pointed the gun at Mu Tong's head again. He gritted his teeth and asked,""Tell me clearly, how is he better than me? If what you say doesn't make sense, I'll blow your head off!”
"Boss Hua! You're also a smart person. Why can't you understand?‘Cloud Butterfly Program was originally created by Guoxing, and the confidential command was hidden by Guoxing. No one in the world knew the power of this technology better than Guoxing. He knew that this technology could rule the world, but he never planned to use this technology himself from the beginning because this technology was tailor-made for Sister Shanshan. Only a kind personality could control this technology. Sister Shanshan had such a kind personality, but you don't, and neither do I! We are both despicable people!……Guoxing was able to give the 'technology to rule the world' to Sister Shanshan as a 'love keepsake.' It could be seen how noble their love was. The two of them had the same personality, while the two of us had the same bad taste. Scoundrels like us might never be able to experience their love!”
When Hua Teng heard this, he seemed to have realized something. Like a deflated ball, he slowly squatted on the ground and fell into deep thought again.
Mu Tong let out a long sigh and muttered to himself,"" During the days when I was on the run, I was on the verge of death several times. Every time I escaped death, I would feel the meaning of life again. I always wondered why such brilliant technology fell on a nobody like me. Was it a deliberate arrangement by God? Or was the heavens drunk and made a wrong arrangement?……Now that you and I both have superhuman abilities, we have become the people who control the entire world. But what happened in the end? We have become the most wanted criminals in the world. This is how the world is. No matter how powerful you are, you can't do whatever you want…Now that things have come to this, I really miss the past. Even if I have nothing, even if I don't have enough money to spend, I have freedom. I can squat by the roadside and daydream for an afternoon. No one will pay attention to me, and no one will arrest me. I can lie in bed and sleep until the sun is high up in the sky. I don't have to hide or run…"
"Mu Tong! Your cheap life is worthless to begin with. Whether you live or die is meaningless to this world. And now, I was the true ruler of this world. Only I knew how to use the 'superhuman ability'. Once a technology was created, it should be used for something. Once steel was forged into a sword, it was used to cut flesh. Once gunpowder was made into a bomb, it was used to kill. Since the' superhuman ability 'had been created, it was used to rule the world. Otherwise, what else could it do? What nonsense love you mentioned just now between Guoxing and Shanshan is all nonsense. I never believe in soft love. I only believe in power. Under power, love is just an ornament, and feelings are just an accessory to power. Now that the 'superhuman ability' had fallen into my hands, it was enough to prove this point. From the moment the 'superhuman ability' was created, it was destined to be a tool of power. Only those who believed in power had the right to control it. The heavens had allowed me to obtain it. This was called destiny!”
"Haha…Boss Hua! I admire your eloquence to the point of worship. If I weren't your enemy, I might have been convinced by you and become your follower. What a pity! The two of us who control the world are bickering with each other in the most primitive way. How ridiculous!”
"Mu Tong, from now on, I am the only one who controls the world. You have been removed from the list! I'm about to become the ruler of the future world, but I've wasted more than ten days here. Wouldn't it be even more ridiculous to play hide-and-seek with you in this dense forest? You can report to the netherworld now. Don't forget to smile and say to the King of Hell," I died in the hands of the World Ruler, Hua Teng. What an honor!”
Hua Teng pointed the shotgun at Mu Tong's chest and was about to pull the trigger.
"Wait a minute! Boss Hua! Don't you want to leave this forest alive?”
"After you die, I naturally have to walk out alive!……What do you mean by that? Are you trying to play some tricks again?"
"Boss Hua! Your Phantom phone ran out of battery just now and automatically shut down. Didn't you hear it yourself?”
"Of course I heard it. So what?”
"Let me tell you. After my Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit was powered off, I lost my navigation and got lost in the mountains for more than ten days. If you didn't have the navigation of the Phantom Phone, you wouldn't be able to walk out of this jungle. Even if you killed me now, you would die of hunger and cold in a few days. Your corpse would be buried in the wild valley and turned into a pile of rotten bones and flesh that would be torn apart and eaten by the insects, snakes, rats, and beasts. It would be a worthy death! Haha…"
Hua Teng's hair stood on end at his words. He could not help but shiver. Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed so. He had only cared about entering the mountains to search for Mu Tong, and all the batteries he had on him had been exhausted. If he lost the navigation, it would be difficult to leave the dense forest. By then, all his dreams would be in vain. He would not even be able to protect his life. How could he rule the world? Thinking of this, he immediately asked,"Mu Tong, since you've lost your way too, it's useless even if I keep you alive. You'll only be one more person to fight for food with me. I might as well send you to the west as soon as possible, don't you think?”
In fact, Shepherd Boy was just making things up. He didn't know that Hua Teng's batteries had all been used up. At this moment, he observed Hua Teng's expression and knew that he had guessed the critical point. He was ecstatic, but he forcefully suppressed his excitement and pretended to be expressionless. He continued," Although my 'Cloud Butterfly Armor' has been turned off, it has a 'potential energy conversion function' that can charge itself!”
" Oh..." Hua Teng's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked,""What is the 'potential energy conversion self-generating function?”
Mu Tong was secretly delighted. He knew that Hua Teng had been fooled, so he continued to make up stories." As long as you find a cliff with a drop of more than 100 meters and jump down while wearing the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit,' potential energy 'will be converted into' electric energy', which will instantly charge the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit.' This is the 'potential energy conversion self-generating function.'"
" Ah..." Hua Teng was tongue-tied. Although he had some doubts, he had seen many magical functions of the Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit with his own eyes. Those functions were all technologies that were beyond his imagination. In the past, he would not have believed it if someone had said that there was a " self-generating potential energy conversion function " in this world. However, now that Mu Tong had mentioned the existence of this " function ", he was skeptical. On one hand, he had to believe it because of the charm of the " Cloud Butterfly Armor ". On the other hand, he was willing to believe in the existence of this function from the bottom of his heart. In fact, he also longed for the existence of this function because it was the only hope for him to leave the dense forest.
After thinking about it again and again, Hua Teng decided to take a gamble, so he continued,"You make it sound so amazing, but why haven't you charged the 'Cloud Butterfly Warframe' yet?”
"I haven't been able to find a cliff with a drop of more than 100 meters! Before you caught me, I jumped down from the hill, but the hill was only a dozen meters high, and the drop was not high enough. The Cloud Butterfly Warframe had just sent out the charging prompt, and I had fallen to the bottom of the hill before I could operate it. Not only did I fail to charge it, but I also fell to the ground. Otherwise, you wouldn't have had the chance to catch me!”
Mu Tong had originally lost his footing and fell down the hill, but under his emotional performance, Hua Teng actually believed it. He pointed his gun at Mu Tong and said," Stand up and follow me. I'll bring you to a cliff with a drop of 100 meters."”
"Boss Hua! The reason why I told you about the existence of this function is that I don't want this magical equipment to be buried in this mountain. Although I don't agree with your idea of ruling the world, as you said, once a technology is produced, it should be useful. If the Cloud Butterfly Armor can help you rule the world, it's worth it. I'm heavily wounded right now. I can't go too far. Why don't you shoot me right now and let me die a quick death? Then, you can find a hundred-meter cliff and charge your 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit' yourself!”
"Bullshit! I'm not even sure if this 'function' you mentioned exists. Why would I be so stupid as to jump off a cliff? If you want to jump, you have to jump! Cut the crap, get up and follow me!”
When Mu Tong fell down from the hill, he had indeed fainted. However, he was now fully awake. There were many bruises on his body, and he looked like he was bleeding profusely. However, his legs were fine, and it did not affect his walking. At this moment, he pretended to have serious injuries on his legs and deliberately limped to paralyze Hua Teng, hoping to find an opportunity to escape.
However, Hua Teng was not stupid. He held the shotgun and pressed it against Mu Tong's back. He did not leave Mu Tong's side and closely watched her every move.
Just like that, the two of them slowly advanced, one in front and one behind, through the deep mountains and dense forests. Mu Tong looked around for an escape route, while Hua Teng looked around for the shadow of the hundred-meter cliff.
Not long after, the two of them came to a cliff. Hua Teng felt that this cliff was just right, so he forced Mu Tong to climb up.
Mu Tong clearly knew that the so-called " charging function " was something he had made up. How could he climb up and jump down again? Hence, he said,""Boss Hua! Is there something wrong with your eyes? This cliff is only 60 to 70 meters high. It's not even 100 meters high!”
" After walking so far, this is the only high spot. Whether it's a hundred meters or not, you can try jumping first. As long as the 'Cloud Butterfly Armor' is charged a little, I'll believe you!”
"What's the use of you believing my words? If the charging fails because the drop is not enough, and I die from the fall, who will jump off the cliff to charge you in the future?”
"Humph! You don't have to worry about this problem for me. I've thought it through just now. If we encounter a higher cliff, I can tie the 'Cloud Butterfly Armor' to your body and throw it off the cliff.”
When Mu Tong heard that, he was so scared that his back went cold and his hair stood up. He continued to fabricate," You don't understand the charging procedure of this 'function' at all. You must find a living person to jump off a cliff that is 100 meters high, because the first 10 meters of the descent is the preparation stage. When the person descends to the 10th meter, the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit' will send out a prompt asking whether to charge. At this time, the person who jumps off the cliff must keep himself conscious and give the charging command to the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit.' After receiving the command, the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit' will charge the crystal suit. It would be charged during the remaining 90 meters of descent. If the remaining drop was less than 90 meters, it would still be impossible to complete the charging. Everything would have to start from scratch. I jumped off the hill just now and was seriously injured before I finished charging. That's the proof of the problem. Therefore, it's useless for you to tie the 'Cloud Butterfly Battlesuit' to my body! Corpses could not give orders! Even if the drop was less than 100 meters! You've ruined my life for nothing, and you've wasted an opportunity!”
Hua Teng had no choice but to continue to believe Mu Tong's words, so he continued to search for higher cliffs.
Mu Tong wiped the sweat off his forehead. Although he had managed to fool Hua Teng again, he understood that Hua Teng was determined to find the hundred-meter cliff. What should he do?
There was no hope of escaping. They could only pray silently in their hearts that there would not be a hundred-meter cliff. However, things did not go as they wished. After walking for a while, a tall cliff stood in front of the two of them. It was a full 150 meters tall.
Hua Teng was overjoyed.
Seeing this, Mu Tong groaned in his heart,""My life is over!"
