Apocalypse Chaos - I am the villain

Chapter 158 Painko\'s decision...

That\'s right, where was Painko?

Rayze was surprised to see that there was no one in front of him. There was just empty space filled with flying snow generated from the wind from his fist.

However… Where was Painko?

In just a fraction of a second Painko suddenly disappeared, and this confused Razye.

It was as if… Painko had never been here.

However, there were still traces left in the snow that proved that Painko had been here.

So… what happened?

Rayze didn\'t understand. He stood still and looked at the snowflakes flying in the air for a while, then he suddenly turned his head back.

The thing he feared the most had happened.

"The egg… where is the egg?" Rayze muttered.

He trembled as he looked at the rock, the egg was no longer there, only a large block covered with snow remained there.

"What the hell? Where is the egg?" Rayze shouted: "AAA!!!"

He frantically rushed towards the stone, and searched around in desperation. He turned over all the soil around the stone but he still could not find the egg.

Rayze didn\'t understand what he did wrong, nor did he understand what was going on.

He didn\'t understand why he kept failing even though he knew the future.

He was even almost killed by a Zombie Hunter, but now he was even more pathetic.

The egg was in front of his eyes, Painko was also in front of him, but in the end both of them disappeared as if they had never been here.

Rayze held his head and screamed: "AAAA!!!"

His screams echoed throughout the forest, like an animal caught in a trap.

Suddenly, Rayze sensed danger, and he immediately turned around.

What caught his eye were two red eyes similar to neon shadows in the sky.

Those two eyes floated in the air, hidden behind the trees in the forest.

The pitch-black darkness made those eyes even clearer and a hundred times more terrifying.

Rayze felt the threat coming from that eye because he knew clearly what he was facing.

"Burial Catfish." Rayze muttered.

Just as he predicted, those red eyes slowly approached him.

Rayze frowned, and shined the flashlight towards those eyes, and a giant catfish appeared in front of him.

The catfish was about 5 meters long, and it floated in the air, its eyes were also like neon light bulbs.

Its two long whiskers waved continuously like snakes looking for prey.

In his previous life, although Rayze had never faced this monster, he knew it very well.

About 10 kilometers east of this forest is a cemetery. That cemetery happened to be located on an underground river, and of course, that river originated from this forest.

This catfish followed the flowing water to the cemetery area, then... it ate the corpses buried underground, near the underground stream.

When the apocalypse arrived, this catfish evolved, it did not turn into a Zombie but it became a monster that possessed the ability to control gravity.

Don\'t think the fish was useless. On the contrary, The Burial Catfish possessed incredible strength and intelligence comparable to humans.

There was once an army that consisted of 1,000 evolved humans and 10,000 soldiers; they were all equipped with countless weapons to destroy it.

Even though they won, almost no one from the army survived.

If the catfish had grown stronger humanity might not be able to resist its strength.

Rayze swallowed.

When facing this monster, Rayze felt that his chance of surviving was lower than facing a Zombie Hunter.

"Run! I have to run!" That thought appeared in Rayze\'s mind.

That\'s right, he didn\'t dare to fight this monster, the lesson he learnt from fighting the Zombie Hunter still lingered in his mind.

"Damn it!" Rayze silently scolded, then turned and ran away.

However, the Burial Catfish certainly wouldn\'t let him run away that easily.

It opened its mouth, and in its mouth appeared a ball of air twice the size of a Tennis ball.

Rayze never turned back, he used all his strength and speed to run away.

Just two seconds later, the Burial Catfish shot out a ball of air from its mouth.

BAM!

A terrible explosion rang out, as the air ball was fired, a? shock wave was also generated.

That shock wave quickly swept around, and blew away all the snow and rocks like a hurricane.

That ball of air seemed to tear apart the space it passed through, and it rushed like a bullet towards Rayze.

At this moment, Rayze\'s intuition was telling him that something fatal was right behind him.

Rayze gritted his teeth, pulled out two daggers from his pocket, then turned around and threw those two knives towards the air ball.

BOOM!

Another explosion rang out, the sound was so terrible that its sound spread over 5,000 miles away.

The terrible explosion sent all the soil and rocks shooting straight into the sky, and the surrounding trees were also blown away by the air pressure generated from the explosion.

If viewed from a distance, there was a dome-shaped flow of air pressure generated from the explosion, that flow of air pressure quickly spread around, and affected a range within a radius of 500 meters.

Rayze felt that he was under extreme pressure. The surrounding space was like a giant hydraulic press, as it crushed his body.

He felt his body being crushed, and tears continuously appeared on his body, and blood flowed out like a stream.

Razye couldn\'t bear it anymore, he spat out a mouthful of blood, then he was blown away by the air pressure.

…

Elsewhere, Hikaru once again appeared about 1,000 meters away from where he discovered the egg.

In a dark cave, he threw Painko onto the ground like a bag of cement.

Painko lay on the ground huddled, he was so scared that he was shaking.

Hikaru smiled and then used the Haunted Cloak to cover his body, before kicking Painko\'s butt.

BAM!

Of course, Hikaru didn\'t use too much strength, he only lightly touched Painko\'s butt.

However, that was enough to startle Painko.

Painko raised his head, at this moment, facing him was another person. The person was wearing a black jacket with a hood covering his face.

"You… who are you? Are you an accomplice of that person just now?"

"I…. sorry, please, forgive me, I don\'t know what I did but please let me go."

Painko trembled as he spoke, his voice filled with fear.

Hikaru used the same voice he used with Rakan. It was a type of voice that sounded like 10 people speaking at the same time, so it was very difficult to discern whether the speaker was male or female.

"Don\'t worry, I came to save you and give you a chance to survive in this world."

"Heh?! What do you mean… You…"

"You watch a lot of anime and manga, right? Even though this is not an Isekai, this is an apocalyptic world, do you want to continue being a useless fat guy?"

Painko was startled when he heard that, that\'s right, he didn\'t want to continue being a useless fat guy.

He didn\'t want people to look at him with disdain.

He wanted everyone to look at him with admiration, respect, or... fear.

Painko lay on the ground, his fists clenched so tightly that they turned white.

"Good, but before helping you, I need to…" Hikaru did not finish his sentence, as he placed a stone in front of the cave entrance.

Everything in the cave fell into darkness, and Painko could not see anything.

BAM!

Immediately afterwards, a terrible explosion rang out, followed by an earthquake-like tremor.

Painko was scared, he clutched his head and lay on the ground, as tears flowed from him like a child.

More than a minute later, everything gradually became quiet again. And suddenly, the cave was illuminated.

Painko tried to open his eyes. After his eyes gradually adapted to the light in this dark cave, he saw a torch planted on the ground in the middle of the cave.

The mysterious person stood near the cave entrance, which was blocked by a giant stone.

Painko recalled what happened just now. Although he couldn\'t see clearly what was going on, he could see that this mysterious person had carried that giant rock and put it in front of the cave entrance to block it.

At this moment, memories of isekai manga suddenly appeared in his mind.

"You… are you a god? Are you going to give me any system or super power?" Painko suddenly felt a little happy, as he quickly asked.

"Don\'t rush, there\'s something I need to tell you."

"I… I am listening… say it." Painko suddenly knelt on the ground, his face filled with excitement and respect for Hikaru.

Hikaru felt a bit amused, however, he still tried to suppress his laughter and said: "First of all, that young man just now is your enemy in the future."

"What? My enemy in the future. But… how does he know that I am his enemy in the future?"

Hikaru smiled and said: "You\'ve read enough manga and novels to understand what\'s going on, right?"

Painko was startled, he rummaged through the memories in his head, then said: "Could it be that... he came from the future, then... came here to kill me?"

"That\'s right." Hikaru nodded.

Painko trembled, however, he was not afraid but felt extremely jealous: "Why? Why does he have such a good opportunity? Why don\'t I have that chance? Why?!"

"That\'s why I\'m here."

Hearing Hikaru\'s words, Painko bowed his head on the ground further.

BAM!

He slammed his head so hard that his forehead bled. However, Painko did not feel any pain, he raised his head and looked at Hikaru with eyes full of determination: "Please, give me strength, superpowers." , or a system, or whatever the hell it is."

"I don\'t want to continue living like this anymore. I want to become stronger."

"I don\'t want to live like a mouse like this. Please…"

Painko cried as he spoke, as if the pain and frustration he had endured were now flowing through his tears.

"Don\'t cry, making you stronger is the reason I\'m here. Will you accept all the pain to change your fate, even... if you may die?

Painko smiled painfully: "My life, whether before or after the end of the world, is no different from hell..."
