What Is Mo Yilai Trying to Hide?

The light collapsed.

It collapsed into the interior of the blade.

While passersby were already rushing towards their homes and surrounding buildings.

Despite his inner rage, the Xian Kui, who always kept his head up to the sky, calmly and coldly held his sword level.

His left hand slowly brushed across the blade.

The wooden sword she passed by gradually became covered with a dark and deep shadow.

It formed a stark contrast to its previous bright white color.

And from some unknown point in time, a barrier covering the sky appeared, creating a false sun.

Chase

Gradually, shadows began to appear...

The light gradually began to fade, as if the whole world had been plunged into darkness.

However, what replaced it was the dark sword energy covering the blade of the Xian Kui... making it appear even darker in the surrounding darkness.

The sun has set.

As she spoke, Xian Kui gripped the sword in both hands, confronting the "punishment" of the gods, gazing into the darkness within her grasp.

Or rather, it was the intense emotion that constituted this pure, pitch-black state, almost replacing magic and becoming the main component of the spell.

Anger, hatred, resentment, Sorrow...

These were things she thought she had completely forgotten.

"So, you've always been with me."

Chapter 698 What is Moerae hiding?

"Oh dear, that's no joke."

As he said this, Cong Yu narrowed his eyes, looking at the barrier in the sky and the gradually gathering light.

He had been in a good mood lately, but he felt that his good mood was about to end with Moerae's antics.

Miss Lin's expression was also quite bad.

"Damn it... Prototype Moerae-Zero!"

Miss Lin shouted angrily, though it didn't come out very well, but such a form of address would undoubtedly enrage Moerae.

Unfortunately, Moerae, who was inside her, still did not respond at all.

But there's no doubt that Moerae didn't leave.

He's just not talking anymore... Moerae has learned the lesson that the more you say, the more mistakes you make, and the less you say, the fewer mistakes you make.

However, there's no need to think of Moerae too rationally.

The anger he had previously inflicted on Moerae has now turned into revenge... though this revenge will ultimately be meaningless.

Thinking this, Cong Yu sighed and took out his phone, which had suddenly started ringing incessantly... Just as he had expected, everyone was asking him questions.

[Yaochuan Guang: Cong Yu- chan! Was that the attack from Mexico you guys were talking about before? I...]

[Cong Yu: Yes, don't worry about it, I'll handle it.]

[Yaochuan Guang: I think I can't stop him.]

[Yaochuan Guang: Oh, okay.]

[Yaochuan Guang: Little Lan and I went to calm the crowd.]

[Yaochuan Guang: Cong Yu- chan, be careful.]

[Yaochuan Guang: Be very careful.]

"..." Yaochuan Guang's concern made Cong Yu smile, but she quickly became serious.

After all, the situation is very serious.

[King Odin: I've seen Divine Art, will you stop it?]

[King Odin: Never mind, I will take action]

[Cong Yu: I'm using the Jormungandr Train to protect the city and the land, as a double insurance.]

[King Odin: Okay]

[Etzel: I can't be bothered with that--]

Etzel is like this; she still harbors resentment towards the provocation she suffered in Bright Moon Town.

That's just petty.

Cong Yu replied briefly, then prepared to summon the Jormungandr Train to cover the city.

But at that very moment...

An intense magical power suddenly emanated from a certain direction, and almost immediately... the sky turned dark.

No, it's not that time has flown by.

Cong Yu squinted, and amidst the gasps of the mortals around them, she and Miss Lin looked up at the sun in the sky, which was gradually being swallowed by darkness.

That was a false sun constructed by the Moerae followers' barrier.

However, could this eclipse-like phenomenon be a special attack, different from the one that occurred in Mexico?

Cong Yu frowned, sensing the source of the magic that was constantly tangling and twisting in the distance, turning the sun black.

Then, the corner of his mouth twitched...

Belongs to the Xian Kui?!

The moment they made that judgment, Cong Yu and Lin exchanged a glance, clearly thinking of something at the same time.

He realized Moerae's purpose.

"Fate's List?!"

"The Fall of the Xian Kui"

The two spoke in different voices, saying roughly the same thing... it was a list needed for the Human Survival.

The fall of the Xian Kui is undoubtedly a crucial element on the list, but the problem is...

Was Moerae acting a bit hastily?

According to what Moerae herself revealed, she didn't want to diligently ensure the survival of humanity, which is why she attempted to create something.

Although the extinction of humanity is equivalent to the extinction of Moerae.

Logically speaking, Moerae only needs to hold on for a while longer, until her flesh, bones, and soul are in their best condition before she is born.

At that time, she will create a "Paradoxical Existence," which is the concept that [she was born before humans created her in the future].

Then, she will no longer be bound to humans.

There is no reason to exert all efforts to preserve humanity's Fate at this moment... unless the Xian Kui doesn't fall into depravity, humanity is doomed.

But that's impossible.

Cong Yu still has a deep understanding of Fate at this moment... after all, he is the only one who is not affected or observed by Fate.

From an outsider's perspective, this is different from my previous understanding of the "Magic Girl Alliance Film" list.

Cong Yu knew the influence of Fate.

It's not something that's so straightforward.

Rather, it was a subtle, gradual process, even somewhat reminiscent of the butterfly effect... However, Moerae was unaware that he knew.

So...

Cong Yu: "It must be a smokescreen."

Miss Lin: "So Moerae was trying to force the Xian Kui to fall!"

"..." Miss Lin paused for a moment, then looked at Cong Yu, who was deep in thought, "What? An illusion? But it's not..."

Cong Yu shook her head at Miss Lin's words and said, "No, Moerae wants us to believe... that her goal is to force the Xian Kui to fall."

"Perhaps, according to the correct trajectory of Fate, the Xian Kui should have fallen at this very moment, but I think..."

"Moerae, who wants to break free from his Fate bound to humanity, may have some other motives, but I don't know what they are."

"Of course, it's also possible that..."

"At this moment, 'Xian Kui' has a reason why Moerae has to make her fall into depravity quickly... otherwise it might affect her plans."

"But I don't know the specifics."

Cong Yu's words made Miss Lin break out in a cold sweat.

Because she felt that Cong Yu's words had no basis... but although they had no basis, they were surprisingly reasonable.

But...

Miss Lin clearly remembered that Cong Yu had said something like he wasn't smart, but that his appearance was deceptive.

But now that I see him, isn't he just a monster with almost superhuman intelligence?

It's probably just a casual remark, and you foolishly believed it.

At this moment, Cong Yu looked around at the complete darkness, but did not release the thousands of Jormungandr Train.

Because he heard a familiar, chaotic shout in his ear.

[Oh! It's coming!!]

A good seedling is a good seedling!

[Source Darkness Apophis] shouted this, his voice sounding extremely excited.

I'm leaving now. Thank you for taking care of me during this time.

[Cong Yu! Although our time together wasn't pleasant, I'll still miss you. pat pat

I'm going! To be with that promising young talent!

That's mine! The Promised Land!!!

As Source Darkness spoke, Cong Yu truly began to feel a dark will gradually emerging from his body.

It condensed in the air into the shape of an extremely beautiful little snake, with half of its body already protruding from Cong Yu's neck, floating towards the distance.

[Goodbye! Out of gratitude for the friendship we've shared, when I World Destruction, I will destroy you and Yaochuan Guang last!]

Seeing the little snake bidding farewell to him, Cong Yu slapped it so hard it was stunned—"Smack!!!"

He then forcefully pushed it back into his body.

[Waaaaah! Don't you always complain about me?]

[They don't like me, and they won't let me leave... Imprisonment! This is imprisonment!]

[I get it, so you're a tsundere + yandere?!]

"..." It's so noisy!

Cong Yu thought to himself, picking at his ear in exasperation... However, this was the first time he had ever known that the Extinction Formula could actually detach from its host under extreme circumstances.

Fortunately, the Extinction Formula can only go elsewhere when one truly decides to Extinction Formula.

Thinking this, Cong Yu narrowed her eyes...

Something's wrong. Something's very wrong.

[Cong Yu: Have you made preparations for city-wide protection?]

[King Odin: Hmm, I have completed the protective spell covering the Bright Moon Province and am now heading towards the edge of the barrier.]
