Trial Cleared! Kannaal City Was Doomed to Perish...
(Thank you all for your votes. The top ten at the end of the month will receive three extra chapters.)
The three quickly climbed the city wall. Although the wind and snow had stopped, the entire city was still shrouded in darkness.
Cheng Shi looked out from the high wall and soon saw a cluster of black dots appearing in the dark shadows. The dense, ant-like black shadows were clearly individuals. And at this time, there was probably no one else but the Kannaal City World Destroyers, who was feared by the people of Rosna.
He frowned, seemingly feeling that these World Destroyers had arrived too quickly.
The Trials was given five days, and this was only the first day. These Believer of [Annihilation] had already gathered on the outskirts of the city. If time hadn't been reset once, allowing Cheng Shi speed up the process, how could they have found the [Gift of Scars] amidst the encirclement of the World Destroyers, and how could they have grasped the true meaning of this Trials in the midst of a war that destroyed cities and nations?
The plot seems to be developing in a slightly strange way.
Cheng Shi pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and casually asked:
"Where did those two Believer of [Annihilation] go?"
Da Yi was taken aback, scratched his head, and recalled:
"The Disciple of Silence was as timid as a mouse, and found a basement to hide in until the Trials ended."
"Doom Herald is quite bold, running up to the city wall and singing for half a day, but in the Storm, his singing..."
Just then, Da Yi's expression changed. He stared blankly out of the city, his eyes wide, and said:
"Grandma... you mean, the song of Doom Herald attracted the World Destroyers ahead of schedule?"
Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that this situation was indeed possible, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why these World Destroyers arrived so quickly.
But no matter how fast they went, it was too late, because the Trials had already been completed quickly.
These are the people of Rosna in this city... perhaps, no one will stand in their way anymore to protect them from the World Destroyers outside the city.
Da Yi nodded in sudden understanding, then pulled out all the iron spikes and said eagerly:
"My lord, although these iron spikes ravaged by war can be driven by the power of Faith, they still need to be fed by war. I haven't encountered a large battlefield for some time now."
"Since we bumped into each other today, and you were here too, I thought..."
Cheng Shi was taken aback, and then suddenly realized that Da Yi's ability to use [war] methods was not because he had received His attention, nor because he had used the power of [chaos] to simulate the splendor of [war], but because of a set of weapons?
Are these iron spikes so useful that they can simulate the power of Faith?
Could this be the same battlefield that Ji Yue collected?
Won't holding it in your hand every day get contaminated by the power of [war]?
I think he's probably already corrupted. This personality... well, it's very "warlike."
However, he also wanted to test the mettle of the World Destroyers outside the city. Since the Trials was over and everyone could leave at any time, there shouldn't be any major danger. So he smiled slightly and said only one word:
"Go."
Da Yi's face lit up with joy. He bowed in greeting, turned around, and jumped down from the high wall. Using the shadows of the pine trees outside the city, he rushed towards the endless stream of World Destroyers approaching from afar.
Soon, a commotion could be heard from afar, and before long, sporadic shouts and curses echoed back. This Assassin, in the midst of chaos, was just like a soldier in war, leaving behind only sprayed blood and pieces of flesh wherever he went.
From this perspective, these World Destroyers don't seem to be too strong.
Just as Cheng Shi and Qu Yan were thinking the same thing, Da Yi's figure retreated in a disheveled state. He suddenly darted over the high wall, then, his face covered in blood and looking embarrassed, spat out:
"Damn it, there were experts inside! We almost got killed!"
Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow, surprised but remained silent. He didn't know enough about these World Destroyers to answer any questions, so pretending to be profound was the best choice at this moment.
But to his surprise, when Da Yi saw Ultraman's expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he started to imagine things again.
He remembered that when he asked why they didn't kill the group of World Destroyers, the adult had said, "It's not that simple." Now it seemed there was more to the story!
And if an Emissary can say such a thing, then... there must be another Emissary on the other side, right?
Da Yi was instantly terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. He looked nervously at Cheng Shi, about to speak, but saw Cheng Shi gazing intently into the distance outside the city.
Da Yi and Qu Yan followed the adult's gaze and saw that the World Destroyers suddenly dispersed, creating an open space in the vast snowfield. In that open space, two people were standing one in front of the other, clearly communicating with each other.
The man in the open space, who was in charge, had obviously also seen Cheng Shi and his two companions on the city wall. He frowned and said in a deep voice:
"The Rosna have found help. Who are they?"
The subordinates behind the leader stepped forward respectfully, bowed their heads, and replied:
"They are probably some stubborn rebels, who are not enlightened and cannot embrace the tide of destruction. They are all pitiful people who do not receive the attention of my Lord."
"Why don't we lend them a hand and bring the will of Annihilation into this Decay city, turning them into cosmic dust, Lord Herobas?"
Herobas nodded expressionlessly, then waved his right hand and commanded, "Give the ignorant enemy the punishment of Annihilation!"
As soon as the words were spoken, countless World Destroyers raised their hands and unleashed the power of [Annihilation] towards the distant city.
After feeling the entire space being pulled apart by Annihilation, Cheng Shi felt a jolt in his heart and realized he couldn't stay any longer.
"Let's go, there's no need to get into a conflict with him."
After saying that, he waved his hand as if to say goodbye, and then left the Trials directly.
Upon witnessing this scene, Da Yi and Qu Yan exchanged a glance, and simultaneously thought of one person—no, one "He"—the Emissary of Annihilation, the "Hand of Purity," Herobas, who had never shown his face.
So He was actually the leader of this group of World Destroyers!?
The two were shocked and quickly followed Cheng Shi out of the Trials. Not long after the three disappeared from the city wall, the capital of Rosna, which had stood for a hundred years, was gradually dragged into the world of [Annihilation] and completely disintegrated into the dust of the universe.
