Night Queen Lilith

"Hahaha... You really have some nerve."

"Even Herta wouldn't dare be so rude to me if she stood here."

"In my eyes, you're nothing more than a slightly larger ant."

"Letting you live this long was already the height of my divine mercy."

"Now I've changed my mind. You aren't worthy of becoming part of my collection..."

An unrestrained smile spread across her flawless, white-jade face.

Lin Chen sensed that the witch before him was finally about to get serious.

Of course, that was exactly what he wanted.

Provoke the enemy, destroy the enemy, conquer the enemy...

Yes, a concise and perfect trilogy of conquest.

After activating that [Universal Countermeasure Card].

Lin Chen's desire for conquest seemed to have grown much stronger.

Meaningless destruction wasn't his goal.

Eternal conquest was what he wanted.

From the uncanny witch's words, Lin Chen could roughly tell.

Her strength was probably no less than Herta's.

Thinking of how Herta herself had gone out of contact.

Lin Chen suddenly felt that perhaps, beneath the unseen black waters.

The world under this endless starry sky was already seething with turmoil.

"Farewell, human ant named Lin Chen."

"I, Night Queen Lilith, have decided to personally ferry you to the far shore of the Voidsea Dreamscape."

"Now, in the name of Eternal Night, I grant you annihilation at the end of time!"

Disjointed syllables tumbled out in rapid succession.

Accompanied by deep tolls that shook the starry sky.

Lin Chen saw it clearly.

The hour hands in the uncanny witch's beautiful crimson eyes spun at an unbelievable speed.

The crescent-moon markings also filled out into perfect circles in an instant.

Boundless darkness descended, completely swallowing everything in sight.

Amid fleeting glimpses, Lin Chen saw the silver-white fragments of the Space Station around him.

They all lost their color in an instant, decayed, and finally crumbled into dust.

[Extremely localized, targeted rule-form strike detected.]

[Lord of the Stars-class attunement shield deployed. Unified field defense rate: 100%.]

The next moment, the system's cold, mechanical voice sounded in his mind.

It brought heartfelt relief to Lin Chen, whose vision had gone completely black.

"Night Queen Lilith, huh..."

"I was just worrying about what to call you after I turned you into a specimen."

With a wave of his hand, he tore through the endless dark void before him.

Crossing the distance in an instant, Lin Chen appeared before the witch Lilith.

And flicked her smooth, white-jade forehead.

"You... You... You're still here?"

"That's impossible..."

"Under my decree, even an Emanator of the Sin God would struggle to escape..."

Shock filled her beautiful crimson eyes.

The witch Lilith's alluring, shapely figure flickered away.

In an instant, she moved beyond Lin Chen's reach.

"Tell me, Lilith, is that all you've got?"

"If that's the best you can do, come quietly and be my specimen!"

"I'll be sure to admire your remains."

He folded his arms across his chest.

Watching the uncanny witch retreat for the first time.

Lin Chen felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Yes, this was what conquering everything felt like.

An uncanny deity calling herself the Night Queen? So what?

With the [Universal Countermeasure Card], she still had to submit to capture.

In the vast, lonely depths of the universe.

Watching Lin Chen stroll through the sea of stars as though he were walking through a garden.

March 7th and Asta were momentarily at a loss for words.

But in the way they looked at Lin Chen.

There were now subtle feelings that had never been there before.

"Mr. Lin Chen... He really is dependable..."

Gazing toward Lin Chen, Arlan spoke softly as well.

If Herta Space Station still had a future.

Then all its hopes seemed to rest on Mr. Lin Chen.

Faced with that unimaginably powerful, uncanny vortex.

All they could feel.

Was instinctive fear and trembling.

"Stop spouting whatever you please."

"I admit, you've certainly made me see you in a new light."

"However, that still won't change the inevitable outcome."

"This entire star sector beneath our feet is already firmly in my grasp."

"Now... I'll show you what the true Eternal Night Dreamscape is!"

Ethereal, distant bells rang out.

Across the boundless sea of stars.

With a wave of Night Queen Lilith's hand.

Endless black ripples spread through the once tranquil, vast depths of the universe.

From behind that beautiful, aqua-blue planet.

A pair of hands reached out, blotting out the heavens.

Because he was in low orbit around Azure Star.

Lin Chen couldn't even see the full form of whoever those hands belonged to.

He could only vaguely make out a silhouette that seemed to merge with the night.

Its shapely curves seemed identical to those of Lilith before him.

The only difference was.

A pair of bizarre, twisted wings completely obscured his view of the starry sky.

The uncanny ripples flowing through the dark depths of space.

Were almost identical to the lines around the clock tower in the ancient book.

"Asta..."

"What in the world is that thing? Isn't it way too big?"

Bound by an uncanny, invisible force.

March 7th could only lift her head slightly.

As she looked at the dark humanoid apparition, larger than Azure Star itself.

The pupils in her beautiful amber eyes suddenly constricted.

Beads of sweat were already streaming down March 7th's forehead.

"I don't know either..."

"I'm afraid Azure Star is in trouble."

"Madam Herta..."

Asta shook her head gently, her face filled with terror and helplessness.

The uncanny creation before them already defied all common understanding.

Could an individual life-form this enormous really exist in the universe?

Widely read and knowledgeable, Asta.

Had witnessed stars dying and neutron stars collapsing into black holes.

Yet she had never seen anything so indescribable.

"Mr. Lin Chen..."

"I'm afraid I won't have the chance to fulfill my promise to you."

His heart had been burning with fervor all this time.

Arlan had been filled with confidence and hope for Lin Chen.

But now, he too felt his vision darken.

With something like that appearing, he had no idea how Mr. Lin Chen could possibly win.

Even imagining it felt utterly impossible.

Lin Chen surveyed the surrounding cosmos in silence.

Although everything happening before him had somewhat exceeded his expectations.

And left him deeply shocked.

He wouldn't show the slightest panic in front of Lilith.

"Countless lives, countless desires and dreams-all are mine to use."

"Beneath the starry sky where darkness descends, I am the ruler of the Eternal Night Dreamscape."

"Though the moment of true perfection has yet to arrive."

"It is time to harvest a few souls from this little corner of the stars."

Disjointed syllables exploded in Lin Chen's mind.

Lin Chen could faintly sense the pride and satisfaction in Lilith's thoughts.

Her true form, powerful enough to tear planets apart, had been revealed.

The advantage was hers.

Lin Chen could fully understand the uncanny witch's state of mind.

If he had strength like that, he wouldn't be able to help being arrogant either.
