I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Chapter 200 - The Dark Ocean



Chapter 200: The Dark Ocean

Ling Pingan happily clicked on the red packet that he had just received.

The first one was 888. The second was 2688!

It was indeed Super Big!

Awesome!

Thus, he immediately typed and flattered, “Aunty is cultured and valiant, ruling the world wisely!”

“You’re just babbling!” She quickly typed, “I could not talk anymore. I have to go and take a bath!”

“I’ll respectfully send you off, Lady Consort!” Ling Pingan typed again while sending a burning incense emoji package.

Then, he held the phone, looking at just the balance of the account, could not help whistling.

“For the next two months, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief!” The young bookstore owner sighed softly.

Even though he gets a large monthly stipend and allowance from the Ministry of Finance on time.

There was still pressure on his expenses.

Not to mention other things, even the monthly utilities and other miscellaneous expenses would be added up to two to three thousand yuan!

Even though he had to order take-out every day, he did not need to spend on groceries.

However, three meals a day added up to about eighty yuan!

That was another two to three thousand yuan per month!

Moreover, he had no concept of money.

He had always been a spendthrift and did as he pleased.

He had to spend several thousand every month on unplanned and unnecessary expenses!

However…

The young bookstore owner never paid much attention to these things.

What spent out would come back was his motto!

As for worries?

They didn’t exist!

As a naturally optimistic person, he had always been heartless and never worried about tomorrow.

“Tomorrow morning, I want to drink an extra bowl of tofu pudding!” He said seriously.

Meow!

Bastet meowed softly as if it also wanted to ask for an extra meal!

“Hmm…” Ling Pingan looked at it. “That’s right… little darling should also have an extra meal!”

Meow!

The little fellow was extremely happy. It jumped into its master’s arms and rubbed against it intimately.

… … ..

She walked in the wild wind and sand.

Ran Bing walked with determination.

The wind could not shake her steps, and the sand could not cover her eyes.

There was even a thin layer of psionic light on the surface of her body.

This psionic light formed a protective barrier, blocking the sand.

She kept moving forward, tracking the traces on the ground.

Claw marks spread through the dust towards the naked ruins of a ship in the distance.

It was a former spaceship.

An interstellar spaceship made in the Old World!

However, when the Old World collapsed, these behemoths that used to travel between the atmosphere suddenly crashed down.

Ran Bing heard that almost all the spaceships in the Old World had crashed down.

These ultimate creations of mankind were vulnerable to a disaster!

Ran Bing looked at the wreckage of the spaceship in front of her. The huge body of the spaceship, which was hundreds of meters long, fell to the ground.

It was broken into several pieces!

Even so, its appearance was still intact.

The body of the spaceship, which was made of a special alloy, was still mostly intact.

She walked over and walked closer. She raised her head and saw the painted words on the body of the Spaceship: Challenger!

Even though so much time had passed, the letters that were printed on the hull with lasers could still be seen.

“Challenger?” Ran Bing licked her tongue. “That once-famous spaceship?”

Even today, the name of the challenger spaceship was still well-known.

As the most famous spaceship in the Old World, this legendary spaceship had been placed high hopes on it!

Because the old world had chosen it as an experimental ship to go to the neighboring planet!

Unfortunately, the experiment had yet to begin, and the preparations were still underway when the Old World collapsed.

From the looks of it, that was the final destination of that once legendary spaceship.

However, that was not what Ran Bing was concerned about.

She looked to the side of the spaceship’s wreckage.

There was an open door there.

Many footprints had disappeared there.

“So…” Ran Bing thought, “This legendary spaceship eventually became the nest of the Scarlet Beasts?”

She shrugged and walked over with the revolver in her hand.

When she approached the spaceship door, she found a dried corpse in the dust at the door.

“Dried corpse?” Ran Bing frowned.

It was common knowledge that the dead after the collapse of the Old World would be petrified.

It was rare to find a dried corpse or other forms of corpses.

So…

She squatted down, dusted the dust covering the dried corpse, and saw the dried corpse’s attire.

It was a male, wearing the space uniform of the Old World.

There was a rank badge on his shoulder.

One, two, three, four…

Ran Bing counted. There were four in total!

Four-star admiral?!

A four-star admiral of the Old World?

That was an incredible person!

Ran Bing brushed away all the dust covering his body. Finally, she found a notebook in his hand that he was holding tightly.

Ran Bing gently picked up the notebook.

The notebook had been eroded by the wind, sand, and rain. Most of the contents were already unrecognizable.

However, in the preface, there was a line of words written in multiple languages, which was particularly eye-catching.

“We are just ignorant people living in the dark fog of the universe. From the beginning, we shouldn’t have set sail!”

Ran Bing looked at the line of words that were written in her mother tongue.

She frowned.

Her intuition told her that this line of words was the clue that this four-star admiral of the Old World had risked his life to run out of the ship after the disaster occurred, wanting to leave some hint behind for future generations!

Looking at this line of words, Ran Bing thought of the strange man in the fog.

“The Old World collapsed because it wanted to sail away…”

“Is that why it collapsed?”

She asked, but there was no murmur in her ears.

Obviously, that book would not tell her the answer.

She continued to flip through the notebook, and finally, she found a clear line of words on the last page.

Ran Bing tried hard to identify and spell out the words written in letters.

Fortunately, she had received language education and had studied several types of words in the Old World. So she could read the meaning of these letters.

“Someone told me that the universe is a dark and dangerous ocean!”

“Every civilization that exists in this ocean is a terrifying predator!”

“That’s why the universe we see is so quiet…”

“Because everyone is a hunter, and everyone is prey!”

“In this ocean, any civilization that reveals their existence will be targeted by other civilizations!”

“Therefore, even those advanced civilizations do not dare to reveal their existence!”

“Not only because there are other hunters in this ocean, but also because there are fishermen like humans in this ocean!”

“A big fish that exposes itself will be placed on the table of the fishermen!”

“And weak civilizations, such as the ignorant fish and prawns in the ocean…”

“When a big fish passes by it, even if it has eaten its fill, it will knock it out with its tail and drown it in the ocean!”

“So, I asked him, ‘what about humans?’”

“He smiled and told me, ‘Humans? Have you heard of Krill?’”

The words at the back could no longer be recognized.

After flipping through a few pages, Ran Bing found a sentence that kept repeating on a page that was already broken: He was right!

He was right!!!

He was right!!!!!

Closing the notebook, Ran Bing stood up.

“So… This notebook is the conversation between this four-star admiral and someone?”

“But…” Ran Bing looked at the spaceship wreckage in front of her. “Who is the one who spoke to him?”

She recalled the description in the notebook and combined it with her own experience.

Ran Bing knew that the person might know the truth about the collapse of the Old World!

Ran Bing recalled the hazy scene she had seen in the bookstore.

A huge tentacle stretched out from under the earth and the ocean.

The earth trembled, the sky shook, and the end of the world came!

She sighed softly and walked toward the spaceship door in front of her.

She had a premonition!

There must be more clues inside this spaceship!

… … … ..

Eleven o’clock at night!

There were still no customers tonight.

However, Ling Pingan happily pulled down the shutter door.

Then, he placed the kitten Bastet on the towel.

“Good Night!” Ling Pingan picked up his phone and said to the little guy.

Then, he turned off the light, hummed, and slowly walked upstairs.

The stairs creaked, and the sound gradually disappeared.

Bastet lay on the towel and intimately rubbed against the edge of the glass door beside her.

Then, it meowed softly.

Meow!

A small flame fell from the ceiling.

The faint blue flame flickered.

The little kitten looked at the tiny flame and slowly turned into a graceful girl.

Her long black hair wrapped around her voluptuous body.

Vaguely, her body, which was like white jade, was as bright as a treasure.

“Master has agreed!” She said to the little flame, “Extra food today!”

The little flame danced happily.

She couldn’t wait any longer.

Master had agreed to give her extra food!

That would be great!

A green leaf quietly appeared.

Soft vines gently surrounded the little flame, transmitting its desire, hunger! It wanted a share of the spoils!

The girl frowned slightly as if she was a little annoyed, but she had to agree. “Bring one back for it!”

The little flame swayed and reluctantly agreed.

In the next second, the pitch-black bookstore returned to normal.

A kitten was lying on a towel at the door.

Its mouth was drooling.

It was waiting, looking forward to tonight’s meal!

… … … … ..

The demons of the Poison Valley on the 489th level of the Abyss plane were walking in this plane as usual, with the sound of the abyss worms gnawing and breathing.

That was an unowned abyssal plane.

Because of its original lord, the Flame Demon, Tarnhem had been missing for many years.

But there was no sign that it had fallen.

Moreover, this broken place was too remote and barren.

The other lords who could occupy this place were unwilling to come, those who thought about it did not have absolute confidence (in the Abyss, once a Lord began military conquest, then his sworn enemies would take action and stop him in every way possible. Other than bloody battles, the nature of the demons was internal strife!)

Thus, the layer of the Abyss became the paradise of Tarnhem’s subordinates.

They each occupied an area and attacked each other in the name of Tarnhem.

Many ambitious people from other layers of the Abyss also came one after another and joined the civil war in the Poison Valley.

That made the already barren plane even worse. Eventually, no demon lord would be interested in it.

However, the demons living here were very satisfied with the current situation.

They even felt that the current situation couldn’t be any better.

Without anyone controlling them, everyone could freely choose their way of life.

They could eat whenever they wanted and kill whenever they wanted.

That was great!

However…

At a certain moment, the entire poison valley seemed to sense something.

Countless demons raised their heads and saw the eternal gray sky of the valley of poison. It seemed to have been dyed red by something.

Waves of tremors that came from the depths of their souls made the demons panic.

In the entire plane, the countless abyssal worms began to scream crazily.

Finally, the sky was completely dyed red!

A spark appeared on it.

Then, it rapidly expanded to the entire sky, and the entire world was burning at this moment!

The great ruler of the past had descended!

That place had become his dining table!

All the demons of the poisonous valley, including the Abyss Worms, would be brought to the dining table by him, slaughtered and eaten!

… ..

With a revolver in her hand, Ran Bing walked into a broken cabin inside the spaceship.

When she walked in, the lights inside the spaceship that had already crashed suddenly lit up.

They lit up the damaged cabin.

Dozens of people struggled, maintaining their expressions and footsteps when they were alive.

But they had already become stone statues.

The kind that would shatter into dust with a light touch.

At the end of the cabin, there was a touch screen that was controlled by the commander.

Ran Bing walked in front of it.

The touch screen seemed to be still intact.

When she approached, the device was activated.

The electronic signal of the snowflakes appeared on the screen.

Buzz Buzz Buzz… Buzz Buzz Buzz…

There seemed to be a blurry sound coming from the screen.

“What… is that?” Someone exclaimed!

Buzz Buzz Buzz… Buzz Buzz Buzz…

“What…”

Buzz Buzz Buzz…

“The spaceship has been invaded… monsters… Buzz Buzz Buzz… Buzz Buzz Buzz…

Amidst these sounds, a vague scene flashed across the screen.

On the side of the blue planet, huge tentacles were extending out!

It was the same scene as what Ran Bing had seen in the bookstore!

Buzz Buzz Buzz… Buzz Buzz Buzz…

“Krill…” a voice was heard in the background, shouting in despair, “We shouldn’t have gone far in the first place!”

“The voice of that four-star Admiral?” Ran Bing thought.

Then, she turned around.

She raised the revolver in her hand.

Bang!

A bullet penetrated the thick cabin door and shot a huge scarlet beast to the ground.

The murmurs by her ear returned.

Amidst the buzzing noise on the screen, she said softly in Ran Bing’s ear, “The K’n-yanians were here before!”

“Where?” Ran Bing asked.

Just like before, she did not get an answer.
