Chapter 1265: Chapter 1265 – Boiling
Chapter 1265 Boiling
Zhang Heng subconsciously reached for his waist, but it was empty. Only then did he remember that he hadn’t brought the [ hidden scabbard ] with him this time.
In reality, it wasn’t just the hidden scabbard. The travel bag that he had placed the props in earlier wasn’t with him either. He had practically walked here empty-handed, even though the fire had almost reached his bedroom, however, with his level of calmness, it was almost impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake. Furthermore, the starfish watch that had been on his wrist the whole time was nowhere to be seen. Zhang Heng had already realized that he was most likely in a dream.
Nyala totip had warned him that the amulet that Chronos had given him was gradually losing its effect, and he had started to reestablish contact with the master of underice city, in his previous dreams and subconscious, Zhang Heng had seen the half-man, half-fish, and half-frog monsters, as well as the huge shadow in the huge palace.
If the seaside town shrouded in haze represented the past, and the huge shadow imprisoned in the palace represented the present, then the scene Zhang Heng saw this time was undoubtedly the future.
The whole of Greenland was engulfed by the raging fire, and the residents of this place were also completely immersed in madness. They grabbed all the weapons they could grab, without hesitation, they turned their guns toward their neighbors, friends, and even relatives. They welcomed the arrival of the figure on the throne with murder and death.
Zhang Heng and his other self looked at each other for a moment. Then, his body moved again. He turned around and rushed toward a grocery store on the left.
Zhang Heng took off his shirt and wrapped it around his elbow as he ran. Then, he used his elbow to smash open the window of the grocery store and jumped in. He took out a fire axe and a hunting rifle that were hanging on the wall behind the counter. Then, he grabbed two boxes of bullets from the counter, and a skinning knife.

When he walked out of the grocery store, he saw a group of fanatics rushing out from the nearby buildings and surrounding him.
Zhang Heng’s expression did not change. Even though the number of fanatics in front of him was more than what he had seen at the art museum, judging from their attire, they should have been residents of the island not too long ago, their combat ability was naturally limited.
Zhang Heng held a fire axe in one hand and a hunting rifle in the other. He did not rush into the crowd. Instead, he used the surrounding buildings and his speed to engage the enemy in a skirmish, at the same time, he was approaching the figure on the throne.

The latter hadn’t made a move until now, but he still maintained his previous posture. Even his gaze shifted away from Zhang Heng to look further away.
Although Greenland wasn’t small, the number of humans living on it wasn’t large. This vast and sparsely populated land was obviously not enough to satisfy his appetite, especially since he had just escaped from the city under the ice, he had even changed into a new body and was yearning for more power. At that moment, his gaze had already crossed the vast sea and was looking at the American continent that was the closest to him.
On the other side, Zhang Heng had unknowingly left the fanatics behind by quite a distance. He did not intend to continue tangling with these people who had completely lost their minds, this was because the only way to truly end this was to get rid of the guy on the pile of corpses.
In reality, Zhang Heng might have chosen a more cautious way of fighting to find out what the other party was capable of, but since he knew that this was just a dream.., zhang Heng treated this battle as a preview. The most important thing was to gather more information and understand his opponent better. If nothing went wrong, he and the owner of the city under ice would have a fight, and it would be a fight to the death.

Zhang Heng jumped down from the roof of a coffee shop. At that moment, he was less than 20 meters away from the hill that the corpse was standing on. To him, 20 meters was just a blink of an eye, his left foot had already stepped on the back of a corpse. At the same time, he raised the shotgun in his hand again.
In the Chamber of the gun, the bullets had already been filled. Just waiting for him to pull the trigger, they would shoot towards the figure at the top of the pile of corpses.
But in the next moment, Zhang Heng suddenly realized that his body could not move.
That feeling was as if someone had pressed the pause button.
However, the only thing that stopped in the picture was his body. The Flames at the side were still burning, and the fanatics behind him were chasing after him while dancing wildly.
Then, Zhang Heng felt the blood all over his body boiling!
This was not a metaphor, but his blood was really boiling.
Like boiling water, burning every single blood vessel in his body, Zhang Heng had inhaled a large amount of radiation in the Chernobyl dungeon, however, even when his condition had worsened to the worst in the sterile ward, it was not as painful as it was now. Even sinking his perception into his subconscious was no longer effective.
The veins in Zhang Heng’s body bulged, but he couldn’t even move his pinky finger.
What made him even more desperate was that during this period, the figure on the pile of corpses didn’t even look him in the eye. It wasn’t until his body fell from the sky that the hunting rifle fell heavily to the ground, the other person on the pile of corpses finally averted his gaze from the west.
Still, he didn’t say a word.
He strode toward Zhang Heng, stepping on the corpses one by one. Just as he was about to reach for Zhang Heng’s chest, he suddenly stopped and frowned. This was the first time he had an expression on his face, and it was a little stiff.
After a pause, he finally gave up on the half-finished action and straightened up. He looked at Zhang Heng lying on the ground expressionlessly, as if he was sizing up a lamb that had been sent to the slaughterhouse.
It was not until he turned around to leave that Zhang Heng finally felt that he could breathe again. There were no more flames and corpses around him.
At that moment, he was lying on the bed in the hotel bedroom. The sheets were already soaked with sweat.
Was It really a nightmare? Zhang Heng looked at his right hand. The Starfish Watch had finally returned to his wrist. However, when he saw the time on it, Zhang Heng was stunned.
00:35. It didn’t feel like much time had passed, but he had slept for more than ten hours. Without realizing it, the starfish had already completed one round. In other words, he was now in his own world of stillness, this was probably the reason why the other him in the dream suddenly stopped and turned to leave.
te.
However, what caught Zhang Heng’s attention was that, unlike before, the time on his watch was not stuck at zero. In other words, his previous nightmare did not end immediately after he entered the world of stillness, it actually extended for another 30 minutes!

Seclusion
I look at the mountain of paperwork before me. I'm overworked. Slowly, my eyes fall shut. I'm so tired of this... A loud 'bang' caused by dropping off another pile of paperwork made me bolt upright. My maid stands before, scorn in her eyes. Annoyed, I wave her away—this is not the first time that that has happened. And she is not the only one who does that. 'Hated by my own people,' I sigh internally and rub my temples. This is not what my 'freedom' was supposed to look like. My eyes hover over the ring on my finger. I tried, you know? Right now, I only want everything to stop. Maybe read some books, eat something delicious, and nap as often as I want to. Wait...I am the matriarch! Hell, I can do whatever I want! Books? I can pocket whole libraries in my domain. Food? Also, in my domain. Naps? Well, there are many cuddly nooks in there. Sooo...my domain has everything I need—dunno why I never thought of this before.
