Millennium Witch

Book 2: Chapter 120: The Hive

Among Zero, Lianna, and Firefly, Zero was undoubtedly the backbone and primary decision-maker. If she continued to refuse to wake up, even if Yvette explained everything to Lianna and Firefly, she would still have to repeat it all to Zero afterward.Considering that the official forces would likely not overlook Shalin Town during their search and might already be on their way, Yvette thought of a plan.

She instructed Lianna to hold Zero in her arms and then reached out.

When Zero opened her eyes, filled with murderous intent, Yvette maintained her position and began to explain their current circumstances.

At the end, she added apologetically, “I’m sorry; I seem to have become the catalyst for this…”

“No, no, no! You can’t blame my sister!” Lianna quickly shook her head. “The ‘General’ was already planning to collaborate with Black Tower Pharmaceuticals to capture us. You just pushed them to act from the shadows into the open!”

Then, after a moment of thought, she added, “Actually, this is better, right? Because now they’re in the light, and we’re in the dark.”

“True,” Firefly chimed in from the side.

“So, I came here hoping to take you away and hide somewhere else. Since the enemy is using official forces to track us down, it’s only a matter of time before they find this place, and they might already be on their way now,” Yvette stated, looking at Zero. “What do you think?”

Zero smirked, “What’s there to leave for? Can’t we just kill them all?”

“But those are the Holy Spirit Sect, the government of Rusted Bone, and even Black Tower might show up,” Yvette reminded her of the current situation.

“Kill them all.”

“Even if you could kill them all, it would only bring more repercussions. The army of New Eden would come here, Black Tower and Lin Tuo’s armed forces would arrive, and the Black Tide Federation might also come…”

“All. Kill. Them. All!” work of veins, exuding an oppressive atmosphere.

Navigating through a section that reeked of decaying kitchen waste, Yvette ascended a sticky, dirty iron ladder to reach a cheap convenience store. While Lianna went off to select daily supplies, Yvette waited at the entrance to conduct transactions with digital currency; Zero waited nearby as well.

Standing idly in the narrow corridor, Yvette glanced at Zero, who appeared lazy and perpetually smiling. Curiously, she asked, “What have you experienced before arriving here?”

From the perspective of an older sister, it made perfect sense to inquire about her younger sister’s ordeal. However, the underlying intention was to understand why Zero had transformed into this anti-human persona, which would also help Yvette comprehend her own nature.

Zero glanced at her, a slight grin forming on her lips, but she remained silent.

This clearly indicated she didn’t want to talk. Yvette thought she could ask Lianna later. However, given that Lianna had seemingly always played the role of a protected one, her information might not be complete… Yvette mused, and then heard Zero suddenly speak, “Do you want to know why I want to kill you?”

“Why?” Yvette looked over.

“I won’t tell you,” Zero replied, wearing a malevolent smile on her exquisitely beautiful face.

Yvette didn’t get angry. Although that statement seemed like mere provocation, it actually transmitted a clear signal: Zero truly harbored the intent to kill her. Given Zero’s penchant for casual murder, this had to be genuine.

But why did she want to kill herself? If this was for the same reasons she had with others, did she really need to draw attention to it specifically with her?

Or was Zero’s killing intent toward her based on entirely different motivations?Volume 2,
