Chapter 2147: 2144: Reunion

Capítulo 2147: Chapter 2144: Reunion

Goodman placed his palm on the wall of the ice cave,

and, with a digital separation of time, easily arrived at the dark side of the Earth, separated by the smallest unit of time in the [The Final North Continent].

One by one, the rulers stepped out of the caves,

either wrapped in protective suits, carrying huge beehives—the ‘beekeepers’.

Or a woman with a single purple wing, quite charming in appearance, ‘Lady Nobility – Indira’.

Or a man dressed in psychiatric attire, constantly stuffing pills into his mouth, haggard and pale, ‘Patient Zero’.

And so on… A total of eight [Queens].

These people were all renowned strong individuals, the Black Tower highly valued them, each corresponding to exceptionally comprehensive research materials, and could extract ‘out-of-control products’ beneficial to the Black Tower’s development from them.

They also attended the recent “Brain Ring Conference” as committee candidates.

However,

the most troublesome among them is, naturally, Goodman and Hidden Brain as [Kings].

Even when compared within the committee, they rank among the foremost strong individuals.

Goodman’s “comprehensive index” had been able to rank within the top five among the committee early on, and with the absorption of the “Brain Remnant Pages”, he now firmly ranks in the top three.

As for Hidden Brain,

his comprehensive strength is a mystery,

he has never showcased his own strength anywhere, nor participated in direct combat… he is often the mastermind behind the scenes.

It’s said he was captured and imprisoned by B.B.C because he got too bored outside, wanting to find a more perfect brain in the Black Tower’s World Zero.

During his imprisonment,

many employees and out-of-control individuals who had accidental contact with him unfortunately lost their minds.

Since the committee’s establishment, he has been the president’s most trusted “deputy”,

privately dubbed the “Brain of the Out-of-Control Ones”, playing a key role in integrating and supervising thought in joint escape and subsequent actions.

“What a beautiful ice plain world… Unfortunately, the demons employ a ‘time segregation’ approach on this planet, rendering this frozen tundra equivalent to being ‘half abandoned’.

Otherwise,

the restrictions here wouldn’t merely be two [Kings].

I hope enough ancient demons remain here, my ‘brain library’ could use some expansion.”

Saying this,

Hidden Brain lifted his barrel-shaped robe.

Brain armadas flew out one after another from within, numbering in the tens to hundreds of millions.

And every brain released had its “restrictions and bindings” lifted, allowing them to self-construct according to their form in life.

The brains generated dense neural tentacles, weaving a body.

Finally forming various “brain corpses”,

regardless of gender or race, all were bald,

with the ‘Brain Seal’ representing Hidden Brain’s domination etched on the back of their heads.

They also uniformly wore black barrel-shaped coats similar to Hidden Brain’s,

With a command from Hidden Brain, the brain corpse army spread out in a net shape, immediately embarking on a carpet-style search, exploration, and invasion of the entire Terminal North Continent.

Soon they found something odd.

Hidden Brain quietly said:

“Just as I predicted, due to this world being separated on the dark side, many regions have become deserted… But not to the extent where no lifeforms remain.

Based on the residual traces left between the glaciers,

it seems they were alerted to our arrival in advance and underwent a large-scale migration, concentrating all remaining forces.

Let’s move now.”

Ten powerful king-level out-of-control individuals followed behind the brain corpse army, each deploying different detection methods to preemptively guard against impending danger.

Tracing the migration routes left on the glacier surface, they reached the highest peak of the terminal north continent along the equatorial line—[Ikirs Big Ice Mountain].

Under Hidden Brain’s control,

the brain corpse army kept several kilometers away from the glacier, arranging themselves equidistantly, enclosing the glacier.

Using shared visual images between the brains, detailing every aspect of the glacier was relayed to Hidden Brain,

The discovery naturally included the [Polar Natives] concentrated within the glacier through the “Great Migration”.

However,

What intrigued Hidden Brain even more was what lay beneath the glacier, or rather, what was dragging it.

“It seems there’s something big underneath dragging this kingdom-level glacier, and it’s doing so effortlessly… What a huge physique, I wonder if its brain is equally large.”

While everyone focused on observing the glacier,

Goodman had already used the continuous radar brainwaves from the “Black Mountain Base” to capture a trace of Han Dong’s presence, confirming he wasn’t at the glacier,

but deeper within this world’s territory.

Upon receiving this information, Hidden Brain suggested:

“Is Mr. Goodman’s target not on this glacier? Why not leave the general attack on the big glacier to us, and Mr. Goodman can directly handle your personal matters.

Once you’ve dealt with your target, return to support us.

Anyway~ my ‘sub-brain’ is installed between your brain, we can communicate at any time if needed.

Of course~ If Mr. Goodman is in danger, I can also transfer through the sub-brain to provide available support.”

Goodman couldn’t be bothered to say much more,

since Han Dong is confirmed to be here,

his stiff office worker face displayed an extremely incongruous smile.

Marching with a briefcase, ignoring the intense cold emitted by the big glacier and the hidden danger, he forced his way across… Any obstructive attacks falling upon him were either dodged in advance or effortlessly resolved with one hand, posing no threat whatsoever.

Watching as Goodman departed,

Hidden Brain sensed that something was slightly off.

‘The actions of these guys are a bit odd, the obstructive behavior just now seemed rather perfunctory… as if deliberately allowing Goodman to pass, perhaps wanted to use Goodman’s connection with that boy to lure him into a trap?

However, even if Goodman loses his head and takes the bait.

It’s not easy to defeat him.

You demons better work hard, it would be best if you fought Goodman to the point where both sides are severely damaged, then I might have a chance to obtain Goodman’s uniquely high-grade brain—the [Black Mountain Base].

Let’s play with the forces around the glacier for now, let these queen-level ones take the lead, I need to preserve my brainpower, and then slowly gather the leftovers later.’

With a command from Hidden Brain, the brain corpse army immediately applied pressure to all the regions of the glacier,

The eight queen-level existences quickly followed suit,

…

Bypassing the glacier, Goodman naturally sensed something was amiss.

Even so,

his speed did not decrease at all.

Soon he reached the edge of the [Great Rift].

He could now clearly capture Han Dong’s presence, and could even simulate Han Dong’s specific situation of standing on the edge, falling downward.

“Are you trying to lure me into this sealed area? Such tactics are too crude.”

As Goodman fell, he retrieved a “crowbar” from his briefcase.

With each curse barrier corresponding to the [Seven Curses], he struck heavily… A strike exceeding the rule level directly shattered the layers of curses.

When he broke through all curses, descending to the very bottom… the scene before him left him stunned.

Han Dong was not hiding, as he had imagined.

Instead, with a ‘special posture’, he appeared openly in the center of the pool, more like he was awaiting Goodman’s arrival.

Using radar scans from the Black Mountain Base,

Below, there was only Han Dong, no ambush forces, nor any traps at all.

The bare-chested Han Dong,

sitting cross-legged in the pale white pool center,

his back was connected by dense white roots, linking every deep root in the underground area,

each root wriggled as if alive, delivering the most primitive and chaotic nutrients to him.

When his eyes opened, a light misty white liquid swept across before him.

“Finally arrived, Mr. Goodman…”
