"With the four ultimate attacks on Qinggang, Qinggang will be unable to fight back."

When Qinggang began to be overwhelmed by all kinds of chaos and madness, it seemed unusually quiet high on the mountain.

At the top of the conference table, Black Bishop spoke in a low voice and coldly, "This is doomed..."

"Oh, in such a ridiculous world, there are still people who want to be saviors..."

"It's the most ridiculous thing."

"The people they save will become their burdens, and these burdens will become the power to destroy them."

"Domination, possession, greed, jealousy, these emotions will dominate the hearts of those who survive."

"It will not be like what is said in fairy tales. The rescued people will be grateful, moral and become partners of Qinggang."

"On the contrary, their unbalanced psychology towards Qinggang will only lead them to crazy, blind, and desperate attacks. Even if their final fate is to drag Qinggang to death together, they do not want to just survive and the other party becomes the savior."

"Heh..."

"Some people may think this is just the ultimate pollution madness."

"But in fact, there has never been any kind of pollution that can be achieved without inner traction..."

"They are crazy because they are crazy to begin with..."

"..."

After listening to his words, the researcher in the white coat did not feel the joy of victory, and his eyes were as dim as ever.

"Staff Hider and Pale Hand are inherently dangerous. We didn't dare to let them enter reality before, but now, for this last chance, we let them come to reality. There are two more uncontrollable ultimates in this world. They can indeed help us a lot, but if they seize the opportunity, I'm afraid our plan..."

"..."

"They're not going to get the upper hand."

Black Bishop interrupted him, seemingly confident. "After all, there are tyrants."

"Tyrant..."

"That is the incarnation of anger, a monster that only knows how to destroy..."

"..."

While saying these words, his eyes even shone slightly, as if the calmness in his eyes had been replaced by fanaticism:

"This is the most perfect plan..."

"Even a tyrant cannot solve the problems faced by Qinggang today. He is not good at solving problems at all..."

"Haha, I already understood it when you said the last chance."

"Yes, we should have done this a long time ago."

"The power of a tyrant comes from anger, and anger cannot solve any problems."

"We were really wrong before because we actually wanted to fight anger. How could this be successful?"

"We should channel his anger and give him more anger."

"The four ultimates attack Qinggang. Regardless of whether the tyrant comes back or not, Qinggang's plan will fail. The ability user who is trying to become the new ultimate will collapse, and the tyrant... haha, of course he will be angry, he will be more angry than ever before, but such anger will eventually crush him, and when the anger devours him, the world will be in chaos, and then..."

He took a deep breath and his eyes flashed wildly. "We have our last chance..."

"The only chance..."

"..."

"..."

"Fight..."

Looking at Professor Bai's firm expression, Mr. Su almost cried.

When it comes to momentum, philosophy, determinism, and research, you must be better than me...

But, I also have eyes!

He wished he could grab Professor Bai by the neck and shout, "Come here and tell me, what should I use to fight now?"

Panic!

Looking through Mr. Su's field of vision, all he could see was panic.

Around the Qinggang Spiritual Power Research Base, various testing instruments began to sound noisily.

Not only the detection equipment, but all sentries and detectives also sent back emergency reports.

The detection equipment is making random noises because all kinds of chaotic and strange spiritual powers have filled the surroundings of Qinggang.

It was as if a big net surrounded Qinggang, and the radiation of every spiritual power reached an unprecedented level. Each one could not be analyzed with the help of the automatic analysis function of the detection instrument, and could only make a squeaking sound, like a cry of panic.

"Alert..."

"Alert..."

"Request to start challenge mode..."

"A total of more than millions of people are pouring from the wilderness to Qinggang..."

"..."

Phone reports rang out one after another, and everyone who received the news was hoarse with fear.

An unknown number of Qinggang's emergency forces deployed on the periphery have moved forward.

However, no matter how meticulous and rigorous the deployment in Qinggang was before, from the beginning of the attack to now, all the reports received are: "XX department suddenly lost contact", "XX requested to retreat", "City Defense Department is waiting for the order to activate the electromagnetic gun" and other messages.

There would be a few gunshots rang out from time to time, but they would disappear immediately.

Perhaps Qinggang's military weapons are advanced enough, their quality is professional enough, and their armor is thick enough. But in front of those countless people, in front of the waves of lunatics who are not afraid of death, no army can resist.

Just like no matter how sharp the sword is, it can't stop the water of the river.

"Alert... alert..."

Minister Shen, who had just rushed to the side to direct, almost fainted after seeing the message from High Wall City.

He received images from high walls and peripheral observation points.

Under the red moon, rows of people gradually came.

The ground could barely be seen, and there were moving heads and scarlet eyes everywhere.

They were like a swarm of ants clinging to the ground, flooding the wilderness, and then swarmed towards Qinggang.

Even if there were troops resisting outside, they would be overwhelmed by them in an instant.

"Crazy... madman..."

Some veterans with strong nerves were so frightened by this scene that their bodies became numb.

It seems to recall thirty years ago, when Crimson Moon incident first appeared, and the wilderness was full of madmen eating people.

The crazy scenes today seem even scarier than they were thirty years ago.

The nightmare is coming.

The wilderness is full of man-eating madmen, and unreasonable madness begins to attack all rational existences.

High Wall City, there were countless people who were suddenly awakened from their deep sleep.

When Third Descent arrived, Qinggang did not feel this apocalyptic atmosphere at first, because the spiritual field of Kid and the reputation of the tyrant protected the residents of Qinggang. Therefore, apart from feeling a little strange that the city was tightly guarded and they were not allowed to go out and business exchanges were interrupted, they did not realize what the outside world was like now. Until now, they saw it.

"Report, violent incidents suddenly occurred frequently in the city, serious pollution is affecting the citizens of Qinggang!"

"Administrative Hall and electromagnetic gun defense mechanisms in each city are under severe impact..."

"..."

Another desperate news suddenly came. This made everyone in the base, whether they were researchers from Qinggang or other laboratory personnel from High Wall City who came over and decided to stay to help Qinggang, feel cold all over at this moment.

This sudden, bad news one after another directly destroyed their inner sanity.

He looked at the people in Qinggang with a somewhat vague look in his eyes, and there was a lot of discussion.

First, endless madmen are coming in the wilderness. They are afraid that they will arrive in a few minutes and no army can resist them.

Then in Qinggang City, riots broke out and affected various departments.

As for Kid, who is leaning on the stick in Qinggang, he is at the critical moment of the experiment and has no time to worry about anything else.

Most of Qinggang's ability users, or knights, have been scattered around the world to save people threatened by pollution.

Even the most terrifying tyrant team...

... They are all outside and have not come back.

... How to fight?

This is definitely not the level that some ordinary pollution can reach. The pollution that can cause such a large scene in an instant must be caused by a powerful creature in the abyss, or even an ultimate, or even not just an ultimate. How can we fight against this?

"Since Third Descent, what is the record of the fastest defeat of major High Wall Citys in the fight against pollution?"

"One minute and thirty seconds."

"..."

Someone asked this question and got a quick answer.

The record for the fastest time a city was destroyed and its entire population was contaminated was one minute and thirty seconds for a large city with millions of people.

So, what about Qinggang?

Even though Qinggang has a larger population and more rigorous foundations and defenses, the attacks on Qinggang are also more terrifying...

Facing the impact of the four ultimates, how long can it last?

Professor Bai took a deep breath, turned to look at Mr. Su and Minister Shen, and said, "Don't panic."

"I know you are very nervous now and even want to hit me."

"But please believe me, this time I did not deliberately suppress it for some kind of verbal effect."

"I didn't notify you in advance, and I didn't tell you first."

He whispered, "In the face of the ultimate attack, our troops and weapons may not be effective."

"Therefore, there is no need for the army to go up and die, and it is impossible for us to use weapons of mass destruction to kill homeless people in the wilderness on a large scale. After all, apart from being polluted, they are actually the same people as us."

"Weapons and armies don't work, so we have only one thing left that can fight pollution."

"Will!"

"..."

As he spoke, he took a deep breath, looked at the others with a smile, and said, "We have the strongest will."

"So I won't lose."

"..."

"You also said, you also said..."

Mr. Su rolled up his sleeves and shouted angrily, "Then tell me, how can we resist the will?"

Professor Bai calmly took a step back, looked to the west, and said:

"Look, isn't that already here?"

"..."

"Huh?"

Everyone was shocked, and then turned their heads blankly.

A cold and biting wind blew from the west of the base.

In the world under Crimson Moon, there seems to be an area where the night is getting darker.

It's so deep that even the light of Crimson Moon can't get in, so naturally no one's eyes can get in.

Therefore, everyone can only see the thick night coming from the west.

It seems slow, but it instantly covers the world, pouring in front of everyone in the base, and deep in the spirit...

... Then it felt like he was very familiar, invading the base and guarding every corner.

"Then... what is that?"

Countless people raised their heads high at this moment, but they only saw the thick night and nothing else.

Suddenly, an extremely harsh but unreal auditory hallucination suddenly appeared in everyone's ears. It seemed to be a combination of countless screams, including the screams of a dead pig that was pressed on the stage and had a large gash cut on its neck. There were also the cries of ignorant babies in the middle of the night. There were also sounds like a woman's lungs were almost bursting with fear, and there were sounds that sounded like the whole city was crying in despair...

These sounds seemed real and illusory, extremely clear but elusive.

Everyone stood up straight, as if frozen, not daring to move amid such chaotic sounds.

Thump, thump...

Everyone was afraid, inexplicable fear, even though they didn't see anything, their hearts were tightening with fear.

Everyone felt a hairy feeling in their hearts. They did not dare to stand on the ground, as if they were afraid that a snake-wrapped palm would emerge from the ground. They kept wanting to look behind them, worried that something behind them was staring at their necks. They did not dare to stay away from the people around them, for fear that if they turned their heads, they would be the only ones left. However, they also did not dare to get too close to the people around them, for fear that these people would turn into evil spirits in the blink of an eye.

Fear entered my mind from every angle and in every form.

It seems that fear does not need a reason, because what I see is fear itself.

Swish, swish, swish...

It is not only the people in the base who are afraid. It is even said that the people in the base feel fear only because they have received a slight amount of radiation. It is just fear. And in the place shrouded in the thick night, many of the madmen who are desperately coming towards Qinggang suddenly fall to their knees on the ground, with layers of blood stains wiped off their bodies, and their distorted faces like ice remain on their faces.

"Hehehe..."

Someone screamed at the top of their lungs, fell to their knees, and clawed at the ground convulsively.

The nails were broken piece by piece and dripping with blood, but they still didn't stop.

Someone's face kept twisting, and while running wildly, his movements slowed down, and a cry of pain came out of his throat. Then, as if he was forced to collapse, he suddenly threw himself at the other people around him regardless of everything, tearing the other person's neck to pieces with his sharp teeth.

Someone was trembling all over and fell to his knees.

He opened his mouth desperately, pulled his tongue, whined and howled, and then pulled it out...

Standing in Qinggang, I couldn't see so many details at all. I could only see patches of thick night pouring into Qinggang, and then there were large areas of madmen, shrouded in the night. I could vaguely see them falling down one by one, and the atmosphere of despair became more intense.

The strange night and the fear in the night even made all the "madmen" who approached Qinggang stop.

People with distorted expressions, who seemed to have no cognitive ability, stopped at this time, with dull expressions.

"Hehehehe..."

The dry and hollow laughter suddenly rang out, as if ringing in people's hearts, and was clearly heard by everyone:

"Kitty little kitten..."

"..."

Following the words, the surrounding chaotic murmurs and frightening auditory hallucinations suddenly disappeared completely.

There is only one sound left in this world, and that is the sound of your own heartbeat.

At the same time, the thick night sky suddenly turned upside down, covering every inch of space and every person. Even Crimson Moon in the sky was covered by the night sky. The bright red light flickered slightly, as if it was fighting, but in the end, it was still covered honestly, and all the light was blocked. The thick and terrifying night became the master of this night.

The gloomy and laughing voice slowly spread in the air, boundless, and swayed to the horizon.

"Shua..."

Among the crowd of lunatics, there were men in black robes covered in chains, and there were hooded men with pale palms.

There are also women in black palace attire wearing crowns of thorns.

They suddenly stopped in unison, raised their heads with cold expressions, and looked around the base.

Around the base, deep in the night, the thick night suddenly began to stir.

Finally someone saw the master in the depths of the night.

In other words, I have seen him a long time ago.

It turns out that all the darkness in the night is his body, and in this nearly infinite body, a black mask slowly rises, replacing the original position of Crimson Moon. Under the mask, cold eyes are looking directly at you all.

There seemed to be a smile in his smile, "One, two, three..."

"Three little kittens..."

"Guess how many of them will be wiped from this world tonight..."

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

Even if the three ultimates came, at this moment, there was a feeling of tension.

fear...

The only ultimate and most terrifying existence who will never hesitate to wipe his kind from this world...

At the same time, in Qinggang City, an old man wearing a priest's uniform was walking out of the library.

His dress seemed a bit strange in reality, but no one around him could see him. They just subconsciously moved out of the way when they approached him, and he seemed to be in a good mood. After Crimson Moon incident, Qinggang organized and collected old books from the pre-civilization era, which made him feel satisfied, and he also felt Qinggang's sincerity in pursuing the truth...

So he stood in front of the gate of Qinggang Library, sighing softly, and looked at the entire Qinggang, a city with a Main City and six Satellite City plus a base. He watched countless people go crazy, attacking and biting everything, and saw someone stopping them.

For example, the police are desperately setting up a cordon.

He was setting up a human wall and holding a reinforced glass shield to fight against the soldiers who were attacking the crowd.

For example, young policewoman is riding a shiny police motorcycle and directing panicked people to hide in underground bunkers...

For example, Teacher Lu is taking the children in the orphanage, locking the door tightly, and hiding in the basement...

Afraid, of course.

But those panicked young soldiers, whose palms holding the guns were already full of sweat, still rushed to the gathering place without hesitation when the assembly whistle sounded, rushing towards the crazy residents who suddenly appeared in the city.

Even though the panicked residents were so frightened by this sudden change that they rushed downstairs wearing only a mask, they still followed the guidance of the police and soldiers on the street and rushed to the underground bunker. Among them, there were people wearing boxer shorts who rushed over with kitchen knives and asked the soldiers and police if they needed help. There was also an aunt holding a basket of eggs picked up from nowhere and scolding angrily:

"What's the fuss about?"

"The price of food will increase again tomorrow..."

"..."

"..."

"In a confused era, the truth cannot be found, but there will always be someone who is closer to the truth..."

The pale-haired old man walked gently through the chaotic crowd, seemingly fascinated by the chaos in Qinggang.

"No wonder even Gui Ming would choose this place..."

He looked at everything around him with appreciation, at those people who believed in the chaos.

No matter the person who carries two kitchen knives and wears boxer briefs, he thinks he can chop a madman to death.

I still firmly believe that tomorrow will definitely come, but the price of vegetables will rise.

Or maybe it was the residents who, after hearing the police officers' instructions, tried their best to maintain order and got into underground bunkers.

He was even a little moved.

Whispering softly, his eyes gradually became firmer and he slowly opened his arms.

In the old body, he instantly felt that there were countless powers with similar characteristics to his own around him.

Then, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

The sound of flipping books resounded around him, and soon reached the ears of everyone in Qinggang.

A book with a sheepskin cover was opened behind him.

Then, Qinggang seemed to be affected by a mysterious force. All the books, including those used to pad the table legs, were opened at this moment. The invisible hand opened all the books in Qinggang with an unquestionable power.

At the same moment when these books were opened, the chaos and riots in Qinggang suddenly disappeared a lot.

On those who had been affected, endless worms suddenly raised their heads and opened and closed their mouthparts dully.

It was like opening a book, making it feel some kind of restrained power.

How to fight against the ignorant, unconscious, immortal bugs that devour everything and never have enough?

Just use the most true and practical knowledge that can never be learned completely.

"What are you..."

The arrival of reinforcements was even faster than the ultimate invasion, which made Mr. Su's body tremble with excitement and fear.

"It's inevitable..."

Professor Bai was also excitedly looking at the night that shrouded the base, with uncontrollable surprise on his face, and said loudly, "I have said before that as long as our beliefs are firm enough and we have the determination to support this world, then even the ultimate cannot shake us. Even the gods in our eyes will resonate with us and stand on our side!"

"The ultimate, after all, comes from the human heart..."

"..."

As he spoke, his voice involuntarily became louder, and he took a deep breath, as if his body was also expanding accordingly.

He even has the qualifications to look into the eyes of several ultimates.

"It is true that our strength in Qinggang is still very weak and our plans are not rigorous enough."

"But after all, we have the determination to do it."

"I'm doing my best to save the world."

"Then, when some people, those who have been saved by us, start to bite us out of greed, ambition and jealousy, we will naturally let them see our preparations and our attitude immediately..."

"Left hand fear... oh no, shock."

"The right hand truth..."

"This is our Qinggang's courage to fight against the world!"

"..."

Having said this, he turned around suddenly and looked at Midnight Court next to him.

At this time, Midnight Court has completely lost all traces of the past, and a new thing is emerging.

The white walls, the pointed roof, shiny things were flashing, and the crisp sound of chains was gently swaying.

Something extremely pure and extremely clear slowly formed.

"With deterrence on the left hand and truth on the right hand, naturally..."

Professor Bai paused for a moment, and then said in an excited tone, "Welcome to the light!"

"Swish" "swish" "swish"

Somehow, after hearing Professor Bai's words, Mr. Su and Minister Shen suddenly felt their scalps go numb.

It was not a tingling of fear, but a kind of excitement, even, touching.

A feeling that the logic deep in my heart has finally been rounded out.

With their status, they can't help but want to pick up Professor Bai, throw it into the sky, and then escape...

After all, now that he has such complete logic, he is even sure.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

So, this is actually Eclipse Research Institute, or the most important part of the information shared by the genius researcher, right? Is this the sincerity of Eclipse Research Institute? Eclipse Research Institute, who has already cooperated with Fire Thief, dared to hand over such an important plan to Qinggang because they had already arranged for Fire Thief to escort Qinggang?

Damn it, he must have known it for a long time, and he was just trying to show off here...

"Hehehehehe..."

Then before their idea came to fruition, a dry sneer suddenly sounded. It was obvious that in the thick night, there were faint eyes looking in the direction where they were, and a voice sneered, "Deterrence with the left hand, truth with the right hand?"

"I just want to ask, I helped with the intimidation, is there..."

After a pause, his voice became serious. "... are you paid?"

"?"

Professor Bai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He puffed up his chest and said confidently and proudly, "Follow the rules!"

"Rules?"

The night suddenly became much thicker, and a bone-scratching cold wind blew through everyone, making people's hair stand on end. It was as if there was an invisible big hand holding the person's neck, moving it gently, looking for the technique to completely extract the spine...

"This..."

Professor Bai His scalp felt numb for a moment, and his backbone and self-confidence suddenly collapsed.

Suddenly he nodded vigorously and said with a guilty conscience, "Yes, yes, there must be a salary..."

"No, no, it's not salary, it's sponsorship..."

"Sponsored..."

Come on, Juan Juan Juan!!
