Unyielding souls, fallen souls, steadfast souls, loving souls... Eternal Night has arrived, and Black Mist has swept away all light.
At Dawn Pass, three beams of light pierced the sky and illuminated the earth.
In the Ruined Pass, countless robots were already lined up neatly.
At Canghai Pass, two major Evil Cults joined forces, standing atop the pass and gazing at the turbulent undercurrents beyond the walls.
At the Sinful Pass, countless Eerie Monsters bowed their heads in reverence.
The decisive battle has begun...
In the Black Mist, a figure held an umbrella. With each step he took, the light reflected from the sky was completely absorbed into the endless darkness, and behind him seemed to be a place of annihilation.
Li Chen gazed at Huizhou City and murmured, "Like light, like the sun, like dust, like a boundary, it has finally come to an end."
A loud bang suddenly rang out.
At the city gate of Huizhou City, accompanied by an angry shout, three beams of light shot into the sky.
"The Fallen Li Chen."
"Today you will surely be killed by us."
Before anyone could react, the blazing sword, burning fiercely, hurtled towards Li Chen at incredible speed.
But Li Chen didn't even look up. Just as the sword was about to reach Li Chen, it suddenly began to corrode and finally turned into a cloud of ashes and scattered.
Several more attacks followed in quick succession.
All of this was to stop Li Chen from moving forward. He was like going against the current, not caring how strong the storms ahead were, calmly walking through this turbulent life.
In the sky, Light Fiend, Yan Qing, and Dunhuang all looked grim. Despite being from the same Wasteland Realm, their attacks couldn't even break through Li Chen's defenses.
They were completely crushed... not in terms of strength, but in terms of ability. Li Chen had long since acted without restraint, each move swift and decisive, quickly shattering everything in his path, because he knew that Forbidden could suppress all other abilities.
But they didn't know.
I thought it was Vector Manipulation capability.
Dunhuang's tone was somewhat somber as he said, "Light Fiend, all the people in the city have been evacuated. The Four Passes are now facing a crisis. We need to gather our strength for another battle against this Eerie Lord. But his advance will not stop. If Huizhou City falls, then Raccoon City will be next, and then he will gradually erode the entire inner road."
"Yu Qingnian led the way to the Ruined Pass, and the other Supreme Beings have all made their moves. If no one can kill the Eerie Lord, then the Human Race will perish at his hands."
"He's clever. He skillfully used the Eerie Tides to disperse most of the Human Race's fighting force, and even the Evil Cult had to join the war." As he spoke, Dunhuang turned to look at Li Chen hadn't attacked them, and his words abruptly stopped.
He was the only one visible, walking alone in the Black Mist.
His goal was too clear... He completely ignored them, as if they were invisible.
Light Fiend, his body wreathed in rays of light, remained silent for a few seconds before replying, "Perhaps. This is the final battle between Human Race and the Eerie Monsters. Regardless of victory or defeat, in reality... Human Race is already annihilated."
"We're just struggling in our death throes."
"Countless lives have been lost, darkness has enveloped the earth, and Eternal Night has arrived. Even if we stop Li Chen, how will we deal with those boundless Eerie Monsters?"
"We've always been at a disadvantage. The day you let Li Chen go, you already had your choice in your hearts, but now it's just to prove something to the world..."
"Your hearts can't lie to me."
"You can't fool him."
Light Fiend Fury gazed at the city behind him with a complex expression. He had already made his choice, but was it truly the right one?
That's no longer important.
What he wanted was that glimmer of light, that ray of brightness.
Even if he were to radiate a final ray of light before his death, he wanted to show the world that the most desperate era had not yet arrived.
They still have a chance.
Light Fiend took a step forward, the void suddenly stopped, and countless light particles wrapped around his body, gradually growing larger and larger, forming a giant of light. The wings that spread out behind him were like a sun, shining on several cities.
Many people in those cities who were waiting to die smiled as if they had seen a final Dawn.
But this might be the last glimmer of light.
It could go out at any time.
Looking at Li Chen's shadowy figure, Light Fiend said, "I came to this world not to reproduce, but to see how flowers bloom, how water flows, how the sun rises, and when it sets, to experience interesting things, and to meet unforgettable people."
"Perhaps this world is indeed in ruins, but it is still my home... Li Chen, have you found your home?"
"Have you found your home?"
"Blindly pursuing the truth, you have already fallen into eternal darkness."
Li Chen paused for a second in his calm steps, looked at Light Fiend, and said in a slightly cold tone, "Home... tell me, what is home?"
"My entire life has been nothing more than a tiny pawn in your hands, and now that I've overturned the chessboard, you're trying to morally blackmail me?"
"How did you view me when my strength was not equal to yours? How did you torment me?"
"The world curses me and slanders me, and I have no words to respond. I did something wrong, but why are they already afraid of me before I have even grown up?"
"Why? Because they are human, and I am a monster?"
Tell me why?
"I saved the world, yet the world sees me as a demon. Is this your doing?"
"If a sigh or an apology were enough, then how much have I given up and abandoned in order to climb to this top..."
There was no one behind me anymore.
Light Fiend fell silent... Just as he said, if the balance of power is not equal, they won't even give him the right to speak; the weak are not worthy of having a voice.
He understood that Li Chen couldn't turn back.
Even if Li Chen were willing to return to the Human Race now, how could he face the people who were killed by the Eerie Monsters? Was he supposed to tell them that Li Chen had reformed?
That's utter nonsense.
As he said, if an apology were effective, the world wouldn't be so dirty and wretched.
Words are sometimes the most powerful weapon to touch people's hearts.
Light Fiend looked at Dunhuang, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "Old Man Dun, after today's battle, I won't have any more wine to drink."
"Go to Sword Mountain and find Sword Elder; he has a lot of wine hidden away."
"Radiance takes the lead!"
With a burst of laughter, his figure shot towards Li Chen like a beam of light.
Yan Qing said solemnly, "He's going to his death, fighting for the last glimmer of hope, and also buying time for the border."
Dunhuang fell silent... Gazing at the charging figure, a sense of sadness welled up in his heart.
Human Race are truly a race plagued by numerous disasters.
