Chapter 8 Shadow Demon King
"Zheng Jiu, is this really good? I want to change my position..."
Chu Hai said helplessly to Zheng Jiu that he was now being pinned in his arm and moving quickly. Although his figure was still tall, no matter how he looked at it, Zheng Jiu seemed to be carrying a little chicken.
"Do you want me to carry you on my back, or the princess hug you?" Zheng Jiu lowered his head and chuckled softly.
"Forget it...you'd better hold me like this." Chu Hai imagined the unbearable scene and quickly closed his mouth.
Although Zheng Jiu was carrying Chu Hai as a burden, his speed did not slow down at all. He flew directly into the eaves and walls in the skyscrapers. The amazing jumping force made Chu Hai shocked. Even Spider-Man in the movie, he was definitely not as exaggerated as Zheng Jiu.
"05, the preliminary detection target is three hundred meters ahead, please pay attention to the surrounding..."
"I've seen it!"
Zheng Jiu slowed down, and he jumped off a platform, landed steadily and put Chu Hai down.
"The Shadow Demon King is right in front of me. There should be many huge shadow demons around the Shadow Demon King. I will be responsible for solving the Shadow Demon King and the huge shadow demon, but I can only try my best to clean up those little soldiers. You don't have to worry about me. Just protect yourself and take a look at my battle by the way. Just understand how to use the power of memes to fight. Do you understand?" Zheng Jiu waved his right hand, and the thick long sword that disappeared before appeared out of thin air. Although Zheng Jiu, who is dressed in modern clothes, he had a simple cold weapon, he did not feel any incongruity.
Chu Hai looked at the long sword in Zheng Jiu's hand in surprise. He guessed that the disappearance and appearance of the long sword were also the power brought by memes. He was becoming more and more eager and looking forward to memes.
"It's started!" Zheng Jiu shouted softly, then picked up the long sword and moved quickly forward. Chu Hai followed him. It was not easy to keep up with Zheng Jiu's footsteps.
"So fast!" Chu Hai tried his best to follow Zheng Jiu. Although he was shocked by Zheng Jiu's speed, his sigh was more because of himself.
After experiencing the battle on the roof of Xiangxiang Hotel Building, Chu Hai absorbed a lot of black silks from dead shadow demons. Each of the black silk threads composed of the dark side of human hearts was enhancing Chu Hai's strength. Chu Hai could now clearly feel that he was full of energy, and his strength and speed were significantly stronger than before he hadn't infected with the meme. To put it bluntly, he felt that he could kill several tigers with bare hands.
After Zheng Jiuji walked for 200 meters, he had already left Chu Hai far behind. The shadow demon like a tide rushed out of various streets and rushed towards Zheng Jiu wildly. The number of huge shadow demons was not a small number. The number alone made Chu Hai's scalp numb. Fortunately, most of the shadow demons who rushed out were not on Chu Hai, and only a dozen shadow demons moved towards Chu Hai.
"Bang!"
Chu Hai stopped and was thrown to the ground by a shadow demon that suddenly emerged from the wall next to him. The powerful impact force directly caused him and the shadow demon to crash into a store together.
Before he could get up, several shadow demons emerged and crushed him to the ground.
Chu Hai struggled to wave his fists. He had no experience in fighting and was just resisting based on his instinct, but the seemingly ordinary fist actually knocked a shadow demon out at once.
The body of the Shadow Demon, who was knocked away by Chu Hai, immediately began to collapse, and black silk threads emerged and poured into Chu Hai's body.
After one punch to solve a shadow demon, Chu Hai's confidence also increased greatly. He tried hard to resist the shadow demons pressing on his body. At the same time, he also punched and kicked at the shadow demons. In just a few seconds, Chu Hai had killed all these shadow demons. After absorbing the black silk thread that appeared after the shadow demon died, he not only did not feel tired, but was more energetic.
"I really didn't expect that I have become the superheroes in the movie now." Chu Hai looked at his hands, and the feeling of power was very wonderful. He couldn't help but sigh that from today on, his life will undergo a qualitative change.
After feeling moved, Zheng Jiu walked out of the store and began to slowly walk towards where Zheng Jiu was. Zheng Jiu in front had already discovered the trace of the Shadow Demon King and had handed him over.
The image of the Shadow Demon King detected by the SCP Foundation is very terrifying. This is a giant that is several times larger than the size of the huge Shadow Demon. It has a skull and an almost transparent body like an ordinary Shadow Demon. On the surface of its body, dark skin-like fragments are constantly peeling off. Looking at its crazy and moving appearance, it is obviously suppressed by Zheng Jiu.
Zheng Jiu's body was not at the same level as the Shadow Demon King, but this did not affect his battle at all. He kept waving the long sword in his hand. The rapid movement dazzled Chu Hai. Any Shadow Demon and the huge Shadow Demon who were close to Zheng Jiu were killed by him without exception. The Shadow Demon King was also defeated by Zheng Jiu's extremely sharp attack, and there were more and more dark skin fragments peeling off on his body.
"My meme can control his shadow battle, what is his meme?" Looking at Zheng Jiu fighting ahead, Chu Hai couldn't help but have such a question, but this doubt did not last long. He had noticed that his shadow demons had already surrounded him.
Chu Hai no longer paid attention to Zheng Jiu's battle. He closed his eyes and the wonderful sense of the shadow appeared again. His shadow broke away from the ground and became a three-dimensional existence exactly like him.
No need for eyes or words, Chu Hai and his shadow naturally had a complete tacit understanding. He could feel the shadow's actions, and the shadow could also understand his thoughts in a timely manner. He and the shadow were like a pair of partners who had worked together for many years.
"Shadow, you left, I right!"
After conveying such an idea in his heart, Chu Hai's shadow had already understood his intention and rushed straight towards the shadow demons on the left. The shadow's speed was even better than Chu Hai himself. Seeing that the shadow had already started charging, Chu Hai was not willing to be outdone and ran towards the seven shadow demons on the right.
Although he was a white-collar worker before, Chu Hai already realized that he would never have the peaceful life he used to be. He had to force himself to adapt, punch after punch, he knocked down one shadow demon after another, and facing the seven shadow demons head-on was impossible for him to complete the task before, but for Chu Hai now, it was no longer easy.
The speed is faster than the Shadow Demon and the power is greater than the Shadow Demon. The terrifying black silk thread that can arouse a dark side of people has no effect on Chu Hai. The battle between Chu Hai and the Shadow Demon is no suspense. If there was no huge Shadow Demon participating in the battle, Chu Hai would win easily.
In the distance, the battle between Zheng Jiu and the Shadow Demon King was approaching the end. The Shadow Demon King, who had a huge size, did not take any advantage in front of Zheng Jiu. Zheng Jiu had already used his long sword to remove the Shadow Demon King's left arm. Around the Shadow Demon King, there were hundreds of huge Shadow Demon corpses of Shadow Demon and Shadow Demon. These corpses slowly dissipated and eventually turned into black silk threads and floated in the air.
Zheng Jiu, who had a very smooth battle, took the time to actually not focus on the battle in front of him. He was communicating with the SCP Foundation through the encrypted channel.
"Captain, the Prophet has new information. You mentioned earlier that the survivor seems to be an intermediate immunizer who has confirmed to be able to use part of the meme power, and you are also planning to recruit him into our team. The Prophet's prediction information shows that the ability he can use should be used to reflect the light or darkness in his heart on the shadow, and then control his shadow to fight. That is to say, his mind will be most directly reflected in his shadow. If he controls his shadow to fight, you must pay more attention to his shadow. This is the best observation opportunity!"
The news came from a member of Zheng Jiu from the SCP Foundation. After hearing the news from the team, Zheng Jiu slowed down his attack on the Shadow Demon King and looked at Chu Hai more focusedly. At the same time, he also said to his team members: "I understand, it should be the same as the meme we encountered a year ago, right? The more open and honest a person presents a spiritual manifestation, it tends to be angels and elves. The darker and despicable person, the more the image he produces, the more he tends to be devils and ghosts, right?"
"That's right! Have you seen his shadow and what kind of image it is?"
"His shadow is exactly the same as him! How many meanings do you mean!"
“…”
After a long time, Zheng Jiu's headset heard another voice and said, "If this is the case, it should mean that his heart is extremely pure. He is a completely consistent person. To put it simply, he should be like you, a trustworthy person. When voting, I will agree to him join our team."
"Slow down... The Prophet has the latest predictions again. He asks to talk to you, Captain, I will help you get the call to the Prophet."
Zheng Jiu was a little stunned. The prophet they mentioned was an extremely special existence in the SCP Foundation. He himself could be regarded as a humanoid meme, and his ability is to predict, prophet, and the prophet usually only uses his ability to predict when the action is unfolding. This time, the prophet took the initiative to ask for a dialogue with the frontline operators.
After a moment of stunned silence, Zheng Jiu was tightly grasped by the Shadow Demon King, but in the next second, the long sword in Zheng Jiu's hand had cut off the Shadow Demon King's new arm again. He also kicked the Shadow Demon King, leveraged the force and jumped to the distance.
"I am the prophet..." The prophet's voice came out, his voice was old and rough.
"05, Chief Zheng Jiu, I have a very strong premonition. This survivor is very important to the foundation and to all mankind. You have already taken him to clean up the Shadow Demon King, right? I'll give you a piece of advice, stop such risky behavior, clean up the Shadow Demon King immediately, and then bring the survivors to the main base."
If it was an ordinary person who said something about Zheng Jiu, Zheng Jiu would probably sneer, but the premonition of this prophet was different. In a sense, his premonition was equivalent to a prediction, and Zheng Jiu had to pay attention to it.
"I understand, ask another question. How strong is your premonition?" Zheng Jiu raised his long sword slightly with his right hand. The long sword rose and the flames illuminated Zheng Jiu's face.
"It's as strong as when I discovered your existence, Chief Zheng Jiu."
Zheng Jiu nodded slightly. He pulled out his headset, then jumped high, and slashed at the Shadow Demon King with a knife. The sword was extremely rapid, and the flames on the sword were roaring continuously. Before the Shadow Demon King had time to stop it, he had already been split into two halves by Zheng Jiu, turning into black smoke and dissipating.
In the distance, Chu Hai was already stunned. What kind of battle is this? It was obviously a unilateral massacre.
