Chapter 348 - 237: Embrace (1)
"What happened to him?!" Cassie exclaimed, holding Engma close beside her. As a half-blood, she had no tolerance for such dramatic transformations — her greatest fear was these tangible undead.
Moreover, this was someone she knew.
"Death cyst, he’s under the control of that merciful father... He can no longer be considered human." Liu Jin looked at Zhao Konghe, who was confronting Malin, his expression grave: "What’s going on here? His father was just killed; why would he be infected by the death cyst and come here? What on earth is happening to his family?"
"So, is he dead?" Engma asked, comforting Cassie while looking toward Liu Jin and Cohen.
"He hasn’t died, he’s obtained eternal life," Cohen said and then let out a cold laugh, "This is exactly what the followers of the Evil God love. Zhao Konghe’s body is already dead, but I believe his soul is still trapped within it, harboring resentment towards Malin... There was a moment when I thought any one of the five of us could be a traitor."
"He’s still alive?" Cassie asked, looking at that... she was unsure whether she should describe it as a body or a corpse.
"Yes, death cyst. It’s a so-called ’blessing of Chaos’ unique to our world. The so-called blessed one is fortunate because they will continue to exist in this eternal form," said the child of the Vanter family with a mournful tone.
"Exist? He’s already speaking in Whisper of the Soul for God’s sake!" Cassie pointed at her former friend and whispered loudly.
"Exactly, this is the true face of the Father’s blessing. They appear to be dead, yet they exist in a state that is alive. Their bodies decompose, but never perish. This decay, yet unspoiled body becomes a perpetual prison for their souls which are tormented forever, their will continuously in agony, until one day they degenerate and are beyond redemption," Cohen said, frowning as he looked at the scene: "They’re about to make a move."
Cassie raised her head to observe the standoff between the two.
