Chapter 625: People Often Lost Just Know To Cherish

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

All the corpses in the morgue were skeptical when Zeus said they were dismissed. Everybody remained standing stock-still until Zeus stepped aside from the door and the sunlight showered into the morgue. Then, the corpses became restless. They exchanged glances but did not move.

These posthumans were, by no means, cowards. In fact, they were brave.

After all, Zeus was still inside the morgue. With his neck bending almost 90 degrees when standing and his two unnaturally large eyes that seemed to be able to pierce through one’s soul, a normal person who had not seen the tragedies in the apocalypse would have already gone crazy.

Maintaining his head in a horizontal position, his mouth stretched into a gleeful grin. He watched the corpses with great merriment as if he was anticipating who would be the first one to walk across the doorway. After staring at each other for some time, there was a female corpse who could not stand his steely gaze anymore. She bit the bullet and hollered out to the other corpses in a low voice, “Let’s get out of here in a group.”

All the corpses, save for Lin Sanjiu’s group, looked at each other and nodded in unison. They then charged at their top speed towards the door.

However, it seemed like their worries were totally uncalled for. Zeus did not even bat an eyelid and just stood there. Expressions of shock were written all over the group of corpses’ faces as they reached the door. They did not know why Zeus would let them off so easily, but they did not plan to find out. Soon, their figures got smaller and smaller on the horizon until they went totally out of sight.

Lin Sanjiu averted her gaze away from the door and began looking around the morgue.

The fat corpse was trembling, and his face was livid with fear. However, he did not follow the group.

“Why are you still here?” Zeus asked with a smile as he flexed his fingers and picked up his chiton.

“I… I’m too excited to see you, so I couldn’t walk,” the fat corpse answered as he bowed unctuously, “It’s okay. You can leave first. Don’t mind me. I’ll leave after you.”

Lin Sanjiu and the grand prize looked at each other upon hearing what the fat corpse said. Although Zeus was scary and strange, he was not the only thing that was odd in the Olympics. They wondered why the fat corpse would admit that he was too scared to move. Besides, he was among the first ones to run when Zeus showed up. Soulsqn jolted up and shouted, “Bullsh*t! You are going to take this morgue, aren’t you? What can you possibly achieve by taking this crap?”

The fat corpse was stunned. He shook his hand repeatedly and recoiled a few steps. “No, you have misunderstood me… I don’t want to make this morgue my own.”

“That’s good then.” Zeus suddenly sighed. Flexing his fingers, he patted his chest. “This is because this morgue is mine.”

The fat corpse fell quiet. He looked around, then in the next second, his body turned into a blur as he darted out of the doorway.

Zeus turned his long neck around, his brown hair scraping across the ceiling. He bent his neck at a 90-degree angle as he saw the fat corpse out of the front door.

When he turned his head back to Lin Sanjiu, he found her walking towards the corpse of the morgue owner. Her body froze the moment she met his glance.

“What are you doing, dear?” Zeus asked, his voice thick with affection.

“I’m going to bury him,” Lin Sanjiu replied coldly.

“I can give you permission to do that, but don’t do any other thing,” Zeus said as he inspected the interior of the morgue with his two bizarrely large eyes. The grand prize had been shielding the birdcage with his body, and upon seeing Zeus’s action, he inched towards Lin Sanjiu together with Soulsqn.

With a frown, Lin Sanjiu crouched down.

When her gaze and her palm touched the corpse of the morgue owner, the doubt and surprise that just rose in her heart dissipated. The morgue owner did not know what the cause of his death was even after he had died. There was a muddled expression on his purple-tinged face, and his eyes were half-closed in a slumbrous manner.

Lin Sanjiu closed his eyes with her palm. The moment the morgue owner’s eyes were closed, he disappeared into thin air.

“I’m such a benevolent god. I’ve given you all you wanted!” Zeus clapped his hands and sighed. “Let’s get moving.”

Then, they followed Zeus out from the morgue. The sky was foggy and the sunlight in the morning was dim as it shone coldly down on them.

The atmosphere in the resting zone had taken a nosedive. It was chilly, and Lin Sanjiu could barely see anybody around. It was a stark contrast from the lively and merry night.

It was getting late. Not only had all the umbrellas returned to the ground, but most of the posthumans in the resting zone were also gone, leaving only a few scattered groups of people in the distance. Presumably, they were not going to join or watch any games today.

‘No wonder no one realizes that Zeus is here,’ Lin Sanjiu thought inwardly.

“Wait for me here. I’m going to keep this morgue,” Zeus said. Then, without waiting for Lin Sanjiu’s reply, he turned back to the morgue. Only then did Lin Sanjiu see the full length of his neck. It was massive at almost ten or so centimeters long. She stared at his back, and a wild thought suddenly appeared in her mind. She opened her palm and activated A Twinkle In The Sky.

Then, she felt a cold sensation spread across her arm. She turned around to find that a person holding her arm. It was her grand prize. The second they met each other glances, the grand prize shook his head. Although he did not utter any syllable, Lin Sanjiu got his signal through his eyes. Some of her rational returned as she took a deep breath. She lowered her hand and deactivated A Twinkle In The Sky.

“Yo, where’s your friend? What’s his name?” Walking towards them after he had kept the morgue, Zeus asked in a saccharine voice, “Are you sure your friend is here? You cannot lie to the highest god. You do know that, don’t you?”

“His name is Puppeteer,” Lin Sanjiu answered, “Don’t worry. We’ve agreed with each other to check the competition rules together today.” She just needed to hold it out a little longer until she was reunited with Puppeteer.

Zeus cast a sidelong glance at her and giggled as if he had heard some kind of joke. Dumbfounded by Zeus’s reaction, Lin Sanjiu asked, “What’s so funny about that?” However, Zeus did not reply instantly. He kept laughing for a long while before craning his neck and replying, “Nothing. I’m just not sure if you’re able to find your friend or not.”

Lin Sanjiu looked at her grand prize. She had a bad feeling about this. Without wasting any second, she grabbed the flesh worm and bolted straight towards the direction they came in last night.

Zeus followed after them. The rhythm of his bare feet hitting the ground caused Lin Sanjiu’s heart to sink even further down.

The umbrella where they had rested under last night had disappeared. There was no sign of Puppeteer and his crowd of puppets either.

The three of them searched frantically around the area, their footsteps echoing clearly in the resting zone. There were fewer people in the resting zone. Some of them were lying on the ground while the others were leaning against the wall, but all of them were not Puppeteer.

Lin Sanjiu’s forehead was wet with sweat. She felt cold after being assaulted by the wind.

‘Could he have already gone out to the arena?’ LinSanjiu thought to herself, but she denied the thought the second it appeared in her mind. She froze, her blood turning cold.

In the next second, she turned her body around and lunged at Zeus like an arrow leaving its string.

“Sis!” the grand prize shouted panickly.

“What have you done to Puppeteer?” Lin Sanjiu’s eyes had turned bloodshot. She roared as she activated A Twinkle In The Sky, and threw herself straight at the tall figure at the back. Mrs. Manas immediately activated her Defense Forcefield, causing her body to glow. However, before she could reach Zeus, she suddenly came to an abrupt stop.

Something was not right, but it was too late. Zeus tilted his head and offered three of them an eerie grin.

His cheeks folded up as the grin grew larger. Zeus raised his arm and beckoned with his finger. “Well, since you cannot find your friend, let’s go then.”

His words seemed to carry some kind of force. Before his sentence was dissipated by the wind, the trio could not help falling to the ground. The cobbled ground was flat, but they could not stop rolling forward as if they were sliding down a slope.

“If you guys continue to resist me, I’m going to be very angry. And when I’m angry, bad things are going to happen. You guys don’t want anything bad to happen, do you?”

Zeus lowered his head, narrowing his two oddly large eyes as he continued to smile. “Alrighty then. Let’s depart to the new arena.”

Lin Sanjiu bit her lower lip until it turned white. She had to use every ounce of strength to prevent her body from making any involuntary retaliation. Zeus grabbed her by her collar and lifted her into the air.
