Chapter 285 Joshua

You Huan noticed Xiao's gaze, but hadn't responded yet.

A burst of vitality from a person hit me from the back of my head.

A brisk and clear voice behind him said:

"hello!"

He turned around suddenly!

A young human man had stood behind him at some point, looking at him with a slight smile.

This human man - or something that looked like a human man - had light brown skin, a slender body, and short black hair.

At first glance, it looks very sunny and healthy.

But his hands and feet were unusually long and thin, and a closer look gave You Huan a creepy feeling.

It's like something inherently horrible is trying to imitate a human, but not quite getting it right.

It reveals a slight sense of blasphemy towards the concept of "human beings".

The language he spoke was very pure English.

You Huan was not fooled by his human appearance and language. He took a big step back to create some distance between them.

Then the sickle wings spread out, and the rich aura of original black water emanated from the body, ready to fight at any time.

Xiao, who was standing on a high place, said hurriedly: "Don't! He, he has no ill intentions!"

You Huan looked at her, and her eyes seemed to say "You won't be his match, don't be impulsive."

"hiss..."

At this time, after seeing the brown-skinned man, the blue-striped Deacon seemed to remember something and actually made a sound that expressed fear.

Then he suddenly jumped behind You Huan and hid himself by using his taller body.

You Huan: "…"

The brown-skinned man watched the whole process with a smile on his face, and then he said:

"Don't be so vigilant, I won't hurt you. Come to think of it, I may have helped you."

"This... 'God', because of the rituals held throughout the year, has received some gifts from 'higher beings' and has acquired abilities that are slightly beyond this world."

"While it is still dormant and digesting this power, I will take it away. This will weaken it a little."

...Now that he's said this, it makes him seem even more terrifying.

If what he said was true, then wouldn't he be an even more terrifying existence since he could recognize and take away this part of the ability?

You Huan thought for a moment and slowly put away his attacking posture.

The brown-skinned man continued to introduce himself politely: "Hello, you can call me Joshua. As for my last name, it doesn't matter."

"…"

Of course You Huan didn't answer anything.

The scene suddenly fell silent.

Suddenly, a voice appeared in his mind:

"...You are not a native of this world, are you? I sense the auras of several different worlds in you."

Facing the questions that popped up in his mind, You Huan remained calm.

This was not the first time he had experienced something unexpected.

Previously in the cabin world in the woods, the insect creature that descended from the world that ruled the cabin world also sensed that he had an aura that was not from this world.

——It was the atmosphere of the "urban world" at that time.

It is obvious that this Joshua is not from this world either.

He responded: "I'm not really considered Aboriginal."

There is not much point in denial or silence at this time.

"Is that so?"

Joshua had no intention of prying into other people's privacy, and continued in a rather cheerful tone:

"As a non-indigenous person, let me introduce myself in more detail…"

"You can call me Joshua. I am the 'Investigator of the Heavens' from the [Fenyu] world. I came to this world to capture a few stowaways."

"Investigator of the Heavens..."

"You don't have to worry. The Heavens Investigator is just a position specially established in our world. He is only responsible for supervising the residents of our world, not the Heavens Travelers from other worlds."

When You Huan heard this, he also became very curious.

This was the third name he had heard of a world that could influence other worlds.

"Burning the Universe"... does it mean burning the universe...?

Is this the same world as the one he saw through the world channel in the cabin in the woods?

Is this a high-level world?

Many questions echoed in his mind, but at this moment Joshua changed the subject and looked at him with a very friendly smile.

"Now that I've introduced myself, shouldn't you introduce yourself as well?"

When You Huan hesitated, he added: "Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of prying into your privacy. I just haven't seen an interesting life like you for a long time."

"It looks like your body is a mixture of the auras of the two worlds, the sea and the city. There's even a little bit of the aura of my world?"

"You really make me curious, so I waited here on purpose just to make friends with you."

It sounds like Joshua has knowledge of both the ocean and the urban world, and his status in his own world is not low.

From a utilitarian point of view, You Huan thought it would be better to establish a good relationship with this guy.

...Moreover, his biological instinct told him that the being in front of him, who exuded a strange aura, should be much stronger than himself.

It is best not to provoke such an unknown life as an enemy.

So, You Huan quickly replied: "Call me 'You Huan'."

If this Joshua has the ability, he can find his true self without a name. If he doesn't have the ability, then what's the harm in telling him his real name?

Joshua seemed to realize that You Huan said his real name, and he looked even happier.

You Huan was just about to ask more about worlds such as Huanhai, Fenyu, and the city when a heart-wrenching cry interrupted the conversation.

"Ah, ah——!"

The high priest Kunze, who was hung upside down at the door, suddenly twisted violently, and his eyes were filled with an indescribable fear as he looked at Joshua who suddenly appeared in the temple.

Joshua looked at him with a smile and snapped his fingers lightly.

"Bang!"

Kunze opened his eyes wide, and his whole body was instantly covered with bulging blood vessels, as if he could no longer bear some invisible thing and exploded instantly.

Joshua flipped his palm, and the eyeball from Kunze had turned into a piece of stone and appeared in his hand.

He sighed and said, "An ancient sculpture from our world, an antique with truth engraved on it, accidentally fell into your hands and was used in this way. It's a bit of a waste of resources."

Then he looked at the black water life beside him:

"If I'm not mistaken, your goal is to destroy this civilization? Then do it."

"This civilization was once blessed by a powerful being from our world, but it eventually fell to such an inferior state. It is better to destroy it and replace it with a new one."

"…"

You Huan believes that Joshua and the bugs in the world of the cabin in the woods should come from the same world.

Their behavior is somewhat similar.

All very polite and sensible.

But at the same time, they would casually and lightly say things like "destroy the world" and "destroy civilization".

Joshua believed that the White Giant civilization could be "destroyed and replaced with a new one" simply because it had received favors from a certain existence in the Burning Universe World but had not met the standards in his mind.

But having said that, his panel is also quite terrifying.

Treat destruction as a task, and use the simplest things such as evolution points, strengthening points, and upgrades to turn the deprivation of life into a process like killing monsters and upgrading in the game.

...It seems that from this perspective, You Huan is more terrifying.

As he was thinking casually, he turned to look at Xiao who had already walked down from the high platform.

Xiao heard a voice rising from her mind: "What happened while I was away?"

Xiao heard the voice in her head with a calm expression, as if nothing could surprise her anymore.

Through spiritual transmission, she quickly told You Huan what she had experienced.

After she separated from him, she found a high priest who was not yet dead on the road.

Following the instinct of the thing inside her body, she used a knife to perform a caesarean section on herself, allowing the special face hugger that had already matured inside her body to come out and parasitize the high priest.

After another gestation, Deacon was born and came to the temple with Xiao, who was theoretically his "mother".

Then, she met that "someone", Joshua…
