The Power of Supreme Spatial Access, Developing a Big Shot's Authority Fragment (Conclusion)

The colossal Sphinx began to slow down.

Then he stopped. Like a lion pursuing his prey, Sphinx strode through the air. He was going to ram the world.

Everyone closed their eyes at that moment.

Cheng Yu immediately asked the system,

(System, is there anything in the shop I can afford right now that continuously replenishes my life force at super-high speed?)

The system immediately replied,

"Yes."

Like a gambler, Cheng Yu said,

(Get me one!)

"OK, your item has arrived. Please check."

(Good. Now work with me.)

"I'm all ready on my end. By the way, what are you planning?" (‧_‧?)

Cheng Yu smiled.

(I'm going to "eat" this guy in one bite. This time, I'll get it all done in one go. Once I've digested him, I should be able to push for Gold, right?)

"Whoa! Ambitious! Otherwise, you'd be taking a huge loss this time."

Cheng Yu's eyelid twitched. Just how expensive an item had this bootlicker bought him?

But as Sphinx grew larger and larger in his sight, Cheng Yu knew he could not back down now. He took out Yog's authority fragment.

Then, Infinite Technique, Final Devour!

The instant Cheng Yu's life force was drained dry, a vast surge of life force poured into his body, then vanished. It poured in again, then vanished again.

This cycle repeated, while a black line appeared before Cheng Yu, growing longer and longer.

Until Cheng Yu could no longer see where it ended.

Human society descended into utter chaos. Everyone had seen Sphinx's charge. What do you think humans would do when the apocalypse arrived?

Perhaps a small number would hold fast to humanity's finest qualities, confess to those they loved, or spend their remaining time beside their families.
