The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 381 Impossibe choice (II)

Chapter 381 Impossibe choice (II)

Cain's body couldn't stop trembling as his mind processed what was happening.

"Apex, where is the core of the phenomenon!?"

Cain's subconscious already knew the answer but could not accept it, so he asked the System Spirit to scan the place, hoping he was wrong.

"Ahhh, you are seeing it. The core of the phenomenon that is about to destroy the Azure State and kill millions of people is no other than that small child."

The golden humanoid inside the soul dimension could feel how Cain's soul was in a state of complete upheaval as this one came to the realization of what he needed to do.

"No. There must be another way!"

Cain's mind was in such disarray that he uttered those words aloud, drawing the attention of the little boy who looked in his direction. There were metal pipes embedded in his head, making it clear that the level of experimentation done on him was beyond just genetic.

Cain stared into the little boy's eyes and could see the pain and fear in this one, as he could not stop crying.

"It hurts. I escaped. I don't know what is happening."

The little body cried as he spoke with Cain but did not move a muscle, clearly terrified and traumatized by whatever had happened to him.

Cain clenched his fists as he heard those words, and his eyes burned with determination as he stored Slaughter. He approached the little boy, kneeling to look at this one directly into his eyes.

"It is okay. You don't need to worry about that anymore, but you need to stop this, or a lot of people will be harmed."

"I can't, I can't. I don't know what is happening." Discover exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire

The little boy cried even harder as the fear in his heart and the pain he endured only kept growing.

"It is okay, it is okay. I will fix it."

Cain attempted to calm down the little boy as he spoke with Apex.

"There must be a way to help him. What about the [Genetic Coder Module]? We could suppress his genetic mutation and take care of the rest later."

Cain had already used the [Genetic Coder Module] to save people's lives, and this time should not be different. However, as he noticed that Apex was not answering immediately, a bad feeling made his heart clench.

"Cain, I have already a.n.a.lyzed the boy with the [A.I. Chip Module]. Whatever they did to him made him evolve to the Apotheosis Realm but riddled his body and brain with genetic flaws that had already started a chain reaction. The metal pipes inside his brain must have been to help his mind endure the mental burden of such a ma.s.sive energy pool, but they are not useful anymore.

He will die, but before that, he will release all the energy in his body, triggering an explosion that will destroy the entire Azure State and everybody in it."

'No, no, no, no, no. There must be another way!'

Cain could not accept what he was hearing. He was willing to march into an impossible battle and stood proud even in the face of an attack from a t.i.tan, but what Apex told him to do was simply too much.

Apex could feel the state of Cain's soul growing increasingly unstable, but he did not blame the boy since, even for someone like him, it was simply an impossible choice.

"If the [Genetic Coder Module] had evolved into the next realm, there might be a chance, but right now, there is nothing you can do."

Cain's mind raced as his brain thought faster and faster, trying to seek a way through this, but time was not on his side.

"My Lord, I will not be able to hold on for much longer!"

Krane's voice reached Cain through their A.I. Chips, and he understood that in just a matter of seconds, the revolving sphere of energy would overcome the tree wall and kill hundreds of thousands.

"DAMMIT! G.o.d DAMMIT! WHY? WHY IT MUST BE LIKE THIS!"

Cain shouted, unleas.h.i.+ng all the rage, hatred, and frustration that flooded his soul and heart before finally taking a deep breath and taking out his red helmet.

All the rage and hatred in Cain's eyes faded, leaving only peace as he took the little boy's head in his hands.

As the boy saw those serene red eyes, he felt all the pain and fear vanis.h.i.+ng, and he finally stopped crying.

"What is your name?"

"Azlan." The boy uttered that word while looking at Cain's red eyes.

"Azlan, you are dying, and you are releasing all the energy in your body right now, which will kill millions."

The boy heard Cain's voice and showed a determination and resolution that Cain would never forget as he uttered the following words.

"It is okay. Do it."

Cain's eyes burned with red light stronger than ever before in his life as he channeled the Sundering Concept into his index finger and touched the little boy's forehead.

"BOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!"

A blast had just erupted from the sphere of revolving energy, nearly obliterating the tree wall to pieces, and Krane burned the last iota of his energy to keep it in place.

Krane couldn't regulate his breathing as he felt he would pa.s.s out at any second, but the Late Wave King clenched his teeth as he focused on the revolving sphere, waiting for the next blast.

Just as Krane prepared for the explosion that would shatter his wall to pieces and send him flying away, potentially killing millions of others, the sphere of revolving energy froze, only to disperse the next second as someone slowly descended to the ground.

"My Lord!"

Krane couldn't help but shout as he saw the sphere vanis.h.i.+ng and Cain descending to the ground.

"We are safe!"

"It's over!"

"We are alive!"

People shouted in happiness as they realized the phenomenon was gone and they would survive. They couldn't help but hug their family with tears in their eyes.

Krane was just as excited as the others, but his smile froze as his perception showed that Cain had a small body in his arms.

"BOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!"

However, Krane didn't even have time to process what he saw as a giant pillar of Azure Lightning falling from the sky with more power than a nuclear bomb, landing straight on Cain!
