Conclusion
The Sunfall much faster than expected, and now the world was truly changing color; gravity, temperature, space, perception, and everything else were distorted.
The Cyclops roared madly. Half of its originally sky-blue body was now nearly black, and half of its wings of light had turned scarlet. The other four giants all returned to the Cyclops's side.
The next moment, the Sunfall, unleashing terrifying heat and radiating light. A massive amount of energy radiation filled the entire space, and the terrifying impact was enough to destroy everything. Faced with such a move, everyone could only pull out their most trump card to save their lives.
Countless ghostly shadows shot out from Chi Baishu's body, and he immediately transformed into a unique state, as if he were in another space, where all impacts and energy radiation would pass through his body.
On the other side, Ding Yuan's body was constantly flashing with various colored lights, which were frantically superimposed together. His whole body turned into an abnormal red color, and he scattered various things, such as cards or small objects, in his hands, activating layers of armor and shields.
Under these circumstances, Hu Wenxu no longer maintained his human form, but transformed into a monster. His lower body became tentacles, his waist became an octopus-like head, his eye sockets became empty, and countless eyeballs flew out. His right hand transformed into a cluster of tentacles, on which countless tiny, indescribable things were wriggling.
Behind those eyeballs were countless tiny tentacles that surrounded Hu Wenxu, connecting with each other to create layer upon layer of barriers. The tentacles on Hu Wenxu's body also wrapped around him, transforming him into a fleshy mass with countless tentacles bound together.
There was no sound, or rather, the sound was masked; there was no light, or rather, all that could be seen was light. Lu Li's body was bombarded by endless light and heat, and he continuously absorbed the shadows generated by them to maintain his body. At the same time, he used various techniques to refine the outer layer of himself into a defensive tool.
All the states that could be enhanced by itself were activated, and all kinds of protection were also activated. Boundless power was shining, raging, and venting its anger and terror. Even time itself seemed to be distorted at this moment.
It's unclear how much time passed before the apocalyptic scene gradually faded. The entire Dreamlands was filled with high temperatures and various forms of radiation, and even space itself was distorted. A ray of light disappeared, and Chi Baishu's corpse fell out of the unknown space.
Without any protection, the corpse was quickly roasted to a crisp in this environment. Under various distortions and radiation, something resembling a spirit or a vengeful ghost crawled out of the body. This twisted creature recklessly absorbed the radiation and high temperature in the space, and its body lit up with lines like lava.
The one-eyed giant roared, puffs of white smoke billowing from his throat. The Sunfall attack was the kind of move that would inflict heavy damage on both sides. Although he, as the one who initiated the attack, did his best to redirect the power elsewhere, his body still suffered considerable injuries.
Pustules sprouted on the Cyclops's body, and three beams of light appeared, indicating the existence of three beacons, especially the largest one. The Cyclops roared angrily.
Some ashes began to fall. Previously, there were no other physical objects in the Dreamlands. These ashes were actually all the remains of Lu Li and his companions. With the roar, the condition of the remaining three players was also revealed.
Ding Yuan's entire body was charred black and covered in pustules, but his body was constantly emitting a red glow, continuously repairing itself and preventing him from dying immediately.
On the other side, a thick layer of dead ash was shaken off, revealing Hu Wenxu's condition. If his original appearance, though transformed into a monster, still retained some human form, then he had now completely mutated into a monster.
A mass of pinkish, rotten flesh, like a melted candle, with hundreds of tentacles writhing listlessly on it, and countless eyes blinking on those disgusting chunks of flesh.
Furthermore, numerous tiny, wriggling, invisible worms emerged from this mass of rotting flesh, constantly altering Hu Wenxu's form. After his layer of ashes was removed, the pinkish rotten flesh quickly transformed into something resembling a green fungal carpet, making Hu Wenxu appear as if he were completely decayed.
"Hmm? This is Green Decay? You're not a zombie after all." Nyar's cheerful voice rang out, surprisingly showing some interest in Hu Wenxu's condition. "Do you believe in Glaaki?"
"No, I was just tricked by the guy on the other side." Hu Wenxu writhed, and all sorts of ominous auras emanated from his body. Then, his body, which looked like it was rotting and melting, began to shrink and was finally enveloped by a layer of human skin. After twisting and turning, it transformed into human form.
Meanwhile, in the distance, where Lu Li, countless plumes of black smoke drifted away, and a gigantic black egg Present Sight. Then, it cracked open with many fissures, and a dark shadow rushed out from within, transforming back into a shadow giant much smaller than before. "So the being that was the source of the healing potion was called Glaaki?"
Back in the Merfolk instance, Lu Li's healing potion was an enhanced version, without the effects of other contaminants being removed. The only person who used that enhanced version was Hu Wenxu, who was unlucky enough to be tricked by Lu Li.
Hu Wenxu is currently undergoing a transformation into an undead slave of Glaaki, or what Nyar calls a zombie. Once transformed into a zombie, he will be completely controlled by Glaaki.
Hu Wenxu is currently in a state of "Green Decay," a condition typically associated with zombies. He has become sensitive to sunlight and is starting to be damaged, with his body turning into a green fungal carpet. However, through other means, he has managed to control his condition and has not completely become a zombie.
This injury nearly disrupted Hu Wenxu's balance, almost turning him into an immortal zombie, with his body once again exhibiting Green Decay and other reactions.
"Interesting fellow. If you'd like, I can help you get out of this situation," Nyar said cheerfully, his tone very persuasive and sincere.
"I refuse." Hu Wenxu refused outright. He understood perfectly well that in the end, he would always be the one who suffered losses by making a deal with such a being.
"Alright, alright. Although one beacon has died, my invasion has accelerated because the Cyclops' body has also been damaged. So you need to hold on for another minute and a half, and I can seal off more of its abilities."
Just as Nyar had predicted, in the next minute and a half, the Cyclops's originally sky-blue body turned completely black, and its wings on its back were dyed red.
A crack appeared above the Cyclops's head, and a figure emerged from it...
