Chapter 869 Ending 3
"Why are it them...?" Tao Nai turned his head to look at the big screen, listening to the system counting Ji Xiaoyue and others' names one by one.

[Confirm the target, activate the enhanced self-defense mode, strangulation countdown: 300 seconds, 299 seconds, 298 seconds...]

Tao Nai quickly got up from the ground, came to the operating table, and tried to continue saving the situation.

[Ding——Illegal operation detected, reducing the strangulation countdown time by 30 seconds, 245 seconds, 244 seconds, 243 seconds. ]

Listening to the system's endless countdown, Tao Nai cursed fiercely.

"Taonai, calm down first." King's voice sounded deep in Taonai's mind at this time.

"But Sister Xiaoyue and the others are dying. It's all because of me. If I hadn't done so much unnecessary work, they might not have died." Tao Nai's eyes showed deep despair.

She could clearly see it all, but she couldn't stop it. She could only watch helplessly as her companions were forced into desperate situations.

There are only three minutes left and they will all die.

Like Chu Ye, she couldn't save anyone she cared about.

"Taonai, could you please not be so cowardly? This system relies on killing people to gain resentment, which proves that the system will kill your companions sooner or later. Death is death whether it is early or late. If this is the case, what else do you have to worry about?" Seventeen's irritable voice sounded in Taonai's mind.

Tao Nai seemed to be enlightened. He raised his eyes to look at the screen in front of him, hatred brewing in his dark eyes.

It was the system that put each of them in danger. They were like pigs raised by the system. They would die sooner or later. In fact, they were destined to be killed.

They have no right to choose, and death is their final destination.

If that’s the case, why doesn’t she take advantage of this last bit of time and drag this damn system to hell with her?

Thinking of this, Taonai cheered up and looked at the densely packed pipes on the ceiling.

Numerous pipes almost covered the entire ceiling, and resentment flowed through them, passing through the pipes all the way to the rooms deep inside.

The system is collecting the resentment generated after the death of these players, which proves that this resentment must have some very important function.

Thinking of this, Taonai quickened his pace and ran along the pipe towards the depths of the room.

At this moment, she was extremely anxious, so she even ran faster.

Feeling that her current running speed could easily break the Guinness World Record, Tao Nai felt the power of the black relics spreading throughout her body. She knew clearly that it was the power of the black relics that was improving her physical fitness and helping her to rush forward.

Or it could be said that these originally dangerous black relics suddenly surrendered and began to willingly allow her to manipulate them.

Enjoying this feeling, Taonai took a deep breath and continued to rush forward.

Finally, a burst of light came from the front of the deep corridor, and then the scenery suddenly became clear, and a huge dial appeared in front of Taonai.

The huge dial is five stories high and presents a perfect circle. At first glance, the golden dial looks like it has gone through many traces of time. There is no hour hand, and the second and minute hands on it seem to have no strength and are turning slowly.

When Taonai stood still, the resentment of those players after their death came down through the pipes and was all integrated into the dial.

In an instant, a ray of blood appeared, like thin clouds of smoke merging into the dial and becoming hour hands.

After sensing the existence of the hour hand, the originally feeble minute and second hands began to move rapidly. The energy generated merged into the ground and slowly spread out.

Taonai felt the strong wind generated by the turning of the hour hand and accurately felt the power of the black relic generated by the rotation of the dial.

The power of the black relic was transmitted through the ground.

Looking out the window, Tao Nai saw a gloomy sky and a familiar scene before her eyes. Not far below the window was the ghost market. And where she was was the entrance to the underworld.

She had never been to the entrance to the underworld before. This was the first time she knew that there was a control panel at the entrance to the underworld that controlled everything in the dungeon. Everything in the live broadcast room of the underworld actually served the huge dial in front of her.

The resentment will form the hour hand, helping the minute hand and second hand on the dial to move together. The movement of the dial can release the power of the black relic, thereby nourishing the entire underworld.

But she always felt that something was missing.

Come to think of it, come to think of it! What crucial thing had she forgotten?

She heard a crisp sound like a bottle breaking deep in her mind. The suppressed memories in Taonai's mind were like a wave at this moment, awakening all her sealed memories.

She had seen countless tragic scenes before people died.

Everyone will die, but very few people can die of old age.

She has seen all kinds of abnormal deaths, accidents, illnesses, and even suicides.

Without exception, the painful struggles these people experienced before their deaths would be absorbed by the ground and transmitted to her the moment they stepped into the underworld.

She must devour the negative emotions of these people, just like swallowing salty, bitter memories, completely digesting the memories and pain of these people's deaths, and finally transforming them into the power of black relics to nourish the entire underworld again.

She devoured for so long that from the dead thing at the beginning, she slowly gave birth to emotions and self.

That was the spiritual wisdom condensed from her dissatisfaction, and she had her own soul.

But her body was out of control, and she was still trapped here, constantly spinning, constantly devouring, and constantly converting energy.

For the sake of the entire underworld, she must continue to experience pain and torture and continue to pay.

But she was so tired. She had done nothing wrong, but she had to experience the death of others since she was born, and even have to experience again the injustice that these people had suffered.

In the end, these people left behind all their negative emotions and stepped into the underworld, and she could only swallow all the bitterness silently.

Why?

Is it because she was born to be the hour hand on the dial?
The dormant memory was completely awakened, and Taonai finally understood.

She is not a person, but a clock hand, a pointer that has been guarding the entrance to the underworld and moving around on the dial day and night.

She purified everyone's resentment except her own.

She has seen too many deaths. Death has been the only thing that has accompanied her throughout her life since she was born.

She hated it, resisted it, and didn't want to continue living like this anymore.

So she took the initiative to leave, even if it meant her death, she would not look back.

Tao Nai finally stopped feeling the headache. She raised her head and looked forward, and saw her other six personalities standing beside her.

King, Seventeen, You, Little Star, Yuanyuan and Sister Zhang.

They are all there, they are all the fragments of her body that were shattered when she jumped from the dial.

After many years, she finally remembered everything, including things about them.
