A World on the Brink of Destruction!

The land on the verge of destruction.

Those cracks opened up the world on the surface, and the seawater, life, everything was being rapidly swallowed up by the cracks.

The truth of the world...

"Rat, what are you waiting for? Run!"

Zane's voice came from behind, but Rat stood there dumbfounded and motionless.

Where to?

Zain paused.

Yeah, where to?

Even the majestic and sturdy Mithril City were torn to pieces by the great power of heaven and earth. The whole world is on the verge of collapse. Where is there any safety?

A massive crack stretched to Rat's feet, and lava from deep within the earth was churning out.

The prophecy has come true.

Rat stared at the crack in front of him, his expression gradually becoming numb.

"They're all waiting for me to save the world... They're all waiting for me..."

"Why?"

Why don't they go themselves?

"What ability do I have to save this world on the verge of destruction? What right do I have to save the world?"

Rat knew he didn't have that ability.

But everyone is looking forward to it!

"You are the savior!"

"That's what they all say!"

Them?

They're just forcing them into this situation!

They're just forcing someone to step in and save them!

An unprecedented sense of depravity surged from the depths of his heart, Heaven-Reversing Sword in Rat's hand fell to the ground.

A voice was calling to him, urging him to give up resistance and embrace the abyss.

"Come on, my good child, come back to my embrace."

"Don't be afraid. Death is not scary. It is the inevitable path of every life and the end of every life."

"Don't be afraid, death is warm and peaceful, my child, you will never be so tired again."

The Mother Star whispered, comforting her child like a mother.

There is nothing to fear, it is just death. Face it with equanimity, and returning to your mother's embrace is an unparalleled happiness.

Rat took a step toward the crack in front of him, and just as he was about to fall into it, Jena and Zane rushed over and grabbed his hands!

"Ratt!" x2

Rat remained expressionless upon hearing this. "I felt my mother's call. I am a part of my mother's body."

"I want to return to where I belong."

Seeing that the two men couldn't hold onto Rat, Wang Haonan stepped in!

He pulled Rat out of the room. "Perhaps those people imposed a heavy burden on you, but your life doesn't belong to anyone."

"You don't have to fight for them, but you do have to fight for yourself."

"Without needing to prove anything to anyone, without needing to meet anyone's expectations, have you abandoned everything? Is death all that's left in your heart?"

"I know you are by no means a coward. You have your own ideals. Sitting and waiting for death is not in your nature. Even if the outcome is destined to be failure, would you be willing to give up without even trying?"

Rat slowly turned around. "... What should I do?"

Wang Haonan picked up the Heaven-Reversing Sword, "Do you still remember Xiduo's prophecy? Your final destination is not here."

The Extreme Dark Hell?

"But..."

Rath looked around and saw that there was no way out and little time left. It was too late to set off for the Extreme Dark Hell now.

"We don't have time."

"Time is like water in a sponge; you can always squeeze some out if you try," Wang Haonan said, handing the Heaven-Reversing Sword to him.

"At least, you're still alive, aren't you?"

Rat took the Heaven-Reversing Sword and asked, "Who exactly are you?"

"If you care about this, then there might not be enough time," Wang Haonan.

"Let's go, I'll walk this last stretch of the road with you."

"Why?"

"Because protecting you is my mission."

Arthur, watching the two still talking, couldn't help but urge them, "Can you two hurry up? I'm fighting all these tentacles by myself!"

That's what they say, but nobody knows how far this place is from the so-called Extreme Dark Hell!

No one has ever actually reached there. The current situation is that there is no way to go unless they can fly there!

"Roar!!"

Just then, a dragon's roar suddenly came from beneath the Great Volcano of Mithril City!

The earth trembled once more, and then the volcano erupted!

Sizzling lava shot into the sky, and in the flames, a dark red dragon's figure tore through the heavens and instantly descended before Rat!

Upon seeing the red dragon, the dwarf craftsman beside him collapsed to the ground.

"The legend... that legend is actually true?!"

"Tiamat is actually imprisoned beneath the giant volcano!"

Tiamat, one of the two offspring of the legendary dragon god.

His elder brother is the righteous dragon god Bahamut, while Tiamat is the evil dragon god, whose body is dark red.

His limbs and wings were wrapped in scorching hot chains made of an unknown metal that could not be melted by fire or rusted by water.

"The Legend of the Twin Dragons tells of Tiamat being killed by her brother, whose dragon corpse was imprisoned beneath a volcano by chains sent from the heavens..."

Yes, almost everything that's a legend is true.

Because there has never been a legend without a basis in reality.

Tiamat was imprisoned beneath this great volcano. Due to the violent eruption of her Mother Star, the earth cracked open, and Tiamat was able to break free from the chains that bound her!

What he sensed first was a descendant with dragon blood!

Tiamat descended from the sky and landed in front of Rat, the heat emanating from its breath enough to cook raw meat perfectly in an instant.

"Dragonkin?"

"Looks like it's you. What a disappointment!"

"I've waited tens of thousands of years, only to have you as my descendant. Tens of thousands of years of patience, just to create this result?!"

Ancient God?

There's no mistake, the dragon-shaped life form before us has reached the fifth rank, it's a true Ancient God!

Even more obvious is that Tiamat is furious right now!

Its anger was like the fires of hell; it felt that Rat was far too weak!

"I'm really sorry, this is all the strength I have."

Rat looked directly at Tiamat.

Tiamat bared her sharp teeth and roared at Rat!

"Damn it!!"

"Now that things have come to this, it's too late to say anything. Just come with me!"

With that, Tiamat grabbed Rat and tossed him onto her back!

Where are you taking me?

"Go to the Extreme Dark Hell, return to my territory!"

Tiamat was about to leave when Jena, Zane, and the others surrounded her.

"Let's go too!"

"You?"

A bunch of rotten apples and rotten shrimps.

Well, even insects aren't entirely useless.

"Then stop talking nonsense and come up here yourself!"

Tiamat gave a shout, and Zane, Jena, and Lady Red Duke all climbed onto his back.

As for Wang Haonan...

He has disappeared.

Arthur swung his sword, severing the attacking tentacles. "Shall we go?"

009 gritted his teeth and said, "You go with them!"

"And what about you, boss?"

"I'll find a suitable way to fly back to Earth."
