Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands-Chapter 493: I Want to Become the Lord of Mist Too (Supplementary Update)

At the moment they saw Bai Yan, everyone's doubts were answered.

Xiao Jinsheng synchronized with the timeline of the Mist Continent and realized that the Bai Yan appearing in the memories was the same Bai Yan as before.

Even the personality was exactly the same.

Therefore, the Terminal parasitized on Bai Yan, secretly healing by absorbing negative emotions.

Knowing that the world consciousness of the Mist Continent would soon fall asleep, the Terminal never forgot its purpose.

Once it regained its mobility, the Terminal started sneaking around to find the hiding place of the world consciousness.

This time, it took twenty-seven years, and Bai Yan, whom it had parasitized, had reached middle age when the Terminal finally found the location of the world consciousness.

Though searching for the world consciousness had wasted decades, there was good news.

By the time the Terminal reached the core of the Earth, the world consciousness was already asleep.

The ten Guards of the world consciousness were not on the Mist Continent because they had escorted the world consciousness to another world.

Having expended Strength, the Terminal discovered that once the Guards safely sent the sleeping world consciousness away, they would return to the Mist Continent and also fall asleep.

The Terminal knew its opportunity had come.

It withdrew from the Earth's core of the Mist Continent, hiding all traces of its presence.

Returning to Bai Yan, it lurked by her side.

It constantly waited.

Until another nineteen years had passed.

The Terminal beguiled Bai Yan and, using her Strength, prompted her to go to the Earth's core.

Having exhausted Strength, the ten Guards who traveled across the universe's time and space and just returned to the Mist Continent had no idea they were being lurked by the dark Terminal.

Previously, the Mist Continent was merely an ordinary world.

The life forms here were all ordinary people.

Thus, it was impossible for anyone to reach the Earth's core.

But the Terminal came, and it protected Bai Yan as she came.

When the ten Guards had just returned, the Terminal transformed into black mist and launched a sneak attack.

Following the Terminal's cue, Bai Yan went to grab an empty stone shell.

The Terminal's assault caught all the Guards off guard, leaving them powerless to resist.

All they could do before dying was activate the protection program of the Mist Continent.

Dense mist locked the entire Mist Continent, also sealing the Terminal and Bai Yan.

After the sneak attack, the Terminal hurriedly retreated to Bai Yan's body, teleporting her away.

The Earth's core completely collapsed a second after the Terminal and Bai Yan left.

Upon leaving the Earth's core, sensing the weakening control of the Mist Continent that belonged to the world consciousness, the Terminal finally dared to appear in its black mist form, spreading its arms and laughing joyfully.

While laughing, it felt the sinister gaze from behind.

The Terminal turned around and saw it was Bai Yan.

Bai Yan was now over fifty years old.

The walk to the Earth's core with the Terminal had exhausted her, leaving her gasping for breath.

She tightly clutched the stone, which had become an empty shell inside, and looked at the Terminal: "You promised that if I helped you, you would make me eternally young and immortal."

"Of course." The Terminal grinned eerily, its misty claw sliding under Bai Yan's chin: "We are partners, after all."

"Give me the stone, and I will fulfill your wish, making you eternally young and immortal."

Seeing the extending black claw, Bai Yan clutched the stone and shrank back: "You killed so many people just to snatch a stone?"

"You ought to tell me, what is this stone?" Bai Yan questioned.

Hearing this, the Terminal sneered: "It doesn't matter if I tell you."

Its gaze turned sinister, completely fearless of Bai Yan knowing the secret.

After all, dead people... keep secrets forever.

"This is the empty shell of the world consciousness." Having wandered the universe, the Terminal deeply understood the hibernation cycles of world consciousness, it explained: "The world consciousness sleeps and cycles at certain times, much like snakes hibernate and shed skin."

"This stone is nothing but the empty shell shed by the world consciousness, already useless."

"Bai Yan, give it to me." The Terminal reached out to Bai Yan again.

Bai Yan handed the stone towards the Terminal.

Just when the Terminal couldn't contain its excitement, Bai Yan reversed the stone and stuffed it into her mouth.

Though clearly a stone, it was exceptionally crispy upon entering the mouth.

Bai Yan quickly took several bites and swallowed everything.

"Are you insane!" The Terminal was furious.

It reached out to gouge Bai Yan's throat.

Hoping to make her spit out the stone.

Bai Yan struggled to resist: "I discovered you lurking in my body for decades, did you truly think I hadn't noticed?"

"If the stone were ordinary, would you have waited over fifty years just to steal it?"

"I'm just a person, how many fifties can one have?"

"I don't care, the stone must be a good thing."

So she ate it, and surely nothing would happen.

"Are you sick in the head!" The Terminal dug for a long time, but Bai Yan only vomited a mess, devoid of any stone fragments.

It knew the stone had already been absorbed by Bai Yan.

At this moment, Bai Yan's act infuriated the Terminal, slapping Bai Yan across the face: "Do you realize that this is just an empty shell, merely the garbage discarded by the world consciousness, yet before the world consciousness returns to the Mist Continent, it can be used to control the Mist Continent?"

"Isn't that perfect?" Bai Yan's eyes lit up: "I want to become the Lord of Mist."

"Do it, do it, you dream of nonsense," the Terminal mocked: "With one foot in the grave, do you expect to become a ghost then dream?"

Realizing its meticulously planned shortcut had been snatched by Bai Yan.

The Terminal was so angry it wanted to chop Bai Yan into pieces.

But it knew the Strength of the stone had already been absorbed by Bai Yan.

If Bai Yan herself embodied that stone.

It couldn't harm Bai Yan.

At least it couldn't kill Bai Yan.

Thinking about this made the Terminal even more furious.

A punch knocked the fifty-year-old Bai Yan unconscious.

It closely inspected the Strength converted by the stone.

Learning that the stone's Strength in Bai Yan was solely for resurrection.

With resurrection Energy calculated by the Superpower of the Interstellar World, it's exactly Twenty Four Stars.

Thus, owing to the stone, it would need to kill Bai Yan twenty-four times to successfully kill her.

Yet if Bai Yan died, its plans would be thwarted.

As the Mist Continent had activated Defense programs.

Without the empty shell shed by the world consciousness, it couldn't control the Mist Continent.

The more the Terminal thought, the more furious, the more stifled it felt.

Yet it was forced to consume Energy to seal Bai Yan, and then use the remaining Strength in Bai Yan to take over the Mist Continent.

With the Terminal's takeover, the Mist Continent's Defense programs were activated, and the apocalypse completely descended on this world.

The emergence of Zombies was the Terminal's attempt to feast and restore Strength.

The emergence of Superpower was the Mist Continent's self-rescue.

As the Terminal battled the Mist Continent's self-rescue program, Poisonous Fog and Fog Corpses also surfaced.

And the Terminal finally awaited the moment the world consciousness returned.

Even though it's trapped in a cycle of hibernation, the Terminal still couldn't act against the world consciousness, couldn't harm or kill her.

Thus, the Terminal thought of a good ally.

Bai Yan, sealed by it as a tool for Energy.

So it kept the returning world consciousness sheltered in the Terminal's haven, also leveraging the world consciousness's kindness to have her find the minimized Bai Yan.
