Chapter 89 -77 Dark Realm 5
Bai Xiong, feeling the vibrations of the detector on his shoulder, slowly walked towards the abandoned factory in front of him, while behind him, Wang Billy and Ding Manshan followed, continuously looking around. Following them was “Muscle Sister” with her grenade launcher.
Hmm… so… where’s Chen Xiao.
Knowing Chen Xiao’s character all too well, one should never expect him to do something particular. For instance, if he were asked to carefully follow the team, bored out of his wits, he might end up doing something utterly bizarre. But if you let him do as he pleases,
…although he might still engage in weird behavior, he might also unexpectedly stumble upon something very important.
Hence, the current situation had unfolded.
Within the Abnormal Space that people hardly understood, a team clad in protective suits and armed with guns advanced cautiously, step by step, in an extremely tense atmosphere. Around them, a figure would occasionally appear, at one moment running past with a hee-hee, a sinister laugh, hands swinging awkwardly by his sides as if dislocated due to a lack of pockets. The next moment, as if suddenly discovering something, he’d “swoosh” down to squat on spot, start digging holes with his bare hands.
“Muscle Sister” couldn’t hold back any longer. She glanced at Chen Xiao, who was enthusiastically kicking up sand nearby, and asked worriedly, “Isn’t it dangerous to let him mess around like this?”
Upon hearing this, Ding Manshan immediately took up the conversation, “There’s definitely danger, but if you ask him to behave himself, the danger might be even greater!”
“Muscle Sister” nodded in agreement, reflecting on Chen Xiao’s “psychotic” behavior from these past few days. She felt… the statement made sense.
At that moment… it was as if Chen Xiao wanted to substantiate the claim that “I really am a psycho”.
He suddenly shouted, “Where do you think you’re running!” before sitting down with a thud, grabbing onto something and pulling with all his might.
Given the sequence of chilling actions he performed beforehand, this sudden shout froze everyone in the vicinity, uncertain whether to help him or not.
Fortunately, the “poor thing” that Chen Xiao had caught didn’t struggle for long, and was violently pulled out of the ground.
Like what other field agents had just discovered, this thing was also a lump of rotten flesh—probably a nightmarish fusion of underground insects and rodent carcasses, forming a larger bizarre piece of tissue.
After Chen Xiao pulled it out of the ground, it started “gurgling” and squirming, curling into a ball within a few seconds, and then quickly sprouting several tentacles, which began spreading out, probing around.
Bai Xiong and the others, guns at the ready, came over, aiming at the lump of flesh, feeling somewhat at a loss.
“Looks similar to the corpse of that ‘hound’,” Bai Xiong said, adopting a firing stance, but he didn’t shoot.
Because he had a feeling Chen Xiao wouldn’t let this thing go so easily.
As expected, Chen Xiao let out a “roar” from the ground, and then shouting “Adah~~” kicked the lump of flesh with force. Bits of flesh flew everywhere.
This shout scared everyone witless, Wang Billy almost blasted it with a shot.
Chen Xiao then crouched down, full of curiosity to observe, as the bits of flesh began to gather slowly, and the chunks that had been blown further away started to roll back into a new ball.
The other four all had faces filled with disgust and helplessness. They didn’t know what Chen Xiao was doing, but they all had a distinct feeling that the fool’s actions were meaningful. So, nobody disturbed him.
A few minutes passed…
“Is this a medium…” Chen Xiao murmured softly to himself, while grabbing the reformed meatball from the ground and tearing it apart from the middle, “plop plop,” tossing each half onto the ground.
Bai Xiong swallowed hard, trying to sound calm as he asked, “Did you discover something?”
When asked, Chen Xiao “whooshed” and raised his head, staring intently at Bai Xiong before quietly opening his mouth wide and chuckling “heh heh heh.” With the surrounding atmosphere, it was quite spine-chilling indeed.
Immediately after, he began to speak.
“I have a bold idea!”
…
Everyone was taken aback,
because they were not sure if they should listen to an idea that even a lunatic would find bold.
But Chen Xiao didn’t care about the others and started talking on his own.
“First of all, one thing is certain: this thing is made up of organisms that were once alive. I looked at it just now, and it includes spider cysts, segments of earthworms, hair and teeth of rats, exoskeletons of some insects, etc. These things were originally not connected, but some force has crudely fused these tissues together.”
While saying this, he grabbed a piece of flesh, slapped it onto another, and immediately they merged into one.
“Thus, they have become a mass without a consciousness of their own. They have no hearing, no pain sensation, and they even lack the most basic instincts for self-protection and eating. In other words, they do not possess the elements essential for ‘life’. Moreover, they seem to be engaged in a meaningless act of seeking each other.”
As he said this, under the shocked gazes of the crowd, he once again went hands-on, brutally tearing a piece from the mass of flesh and placing it a short distance away, where instantly tissue-like tendrils stretched toward it.
The corners of the eyes of those nearby twitched a few times. They even felt that this pile of strange things… um… was rather pitiful in Chen Xiao’s hands.
Chen Xiao continued to speak.
“After they fuse with each other, first, they become a sphere… which is bizarre. This phenomenon is usually found in the tension of water surfaces, magnetic fields, gravitational focal points, and the like. But think about it, in our universe, a sphere seems to represent some significant meaning, ranging from as large as galaxies, the sun, to as small as an apple, a droplet, and even molecules. If we explain it purely in terms of gravity, then the gravitational force must be greater than the surface tension caused by the repulsion between atoms within the object, causing the object’s surface to collapse inward toward the center in all directions. However, many lifecycles also end in spheres — gametes, seeds, unhatched eggs are all spherical. So, a more significant reason is that in our space, only a sphere fits the shape that is stable on all sides. To put it simply, that’s a rule of our world.”
Chen Xiao spoke faster and faster, continuously tearing and kneading the pitiful chunks of meat on the ground. Bai Xiong furrowed his brows, perhaps feeling that the guy was becoming more and more absurd, or maybe feeling sorry for the pile of strange stuff. Anyway, he stopped Chen Xiao’s rambling.
“Err… so what exactly is your bold idea?” he asked.
Chen Xiao shifted his gaze away from the meat in his hands, then looked at the others.
“I think this ‘Abnormal Space’ is a door… Something from another world wants to come through, but since the rules are different, they need this.”
Saying this, he grabbed a chunk of flesh and crushed it directly in his hand.
With fingers spread open, he let the pieces slowly squirm back together.
He smiled, baring his teeth.

“They need…
