A sword struck.
An extraordinary sword stroke tore through the Formless Hero's body.
The decaying, broken Formless Hero, long dead and long defeated, was severed at the waist.
It began to dissipate.
A cracked mouth with edges stuck together actually appeared on its featureless face.
It... made a humanlike sound.
"Thank... you... Train Conductor... I truly... never expected..."
"Have I finally... been freed from that war..."
The Formless Hero's body gradually vanished. At the end of the threads controlling it from above its head, the entity called the DF Wish-Granting Machine seemed unwilling to accept such an easy defeat and began frantically absorbing everything in Dongbo City, and even the entire Nation of Spirit Prayer.
"How pitiful... how lamentable... this failed attempt should finally come to an end."
Grayish-white snow mingled with Red Tears' Rain.
Strange ice fell to the earth, yet brought no sensation of cold.
"Thank... you..."
The sword had already been drawn.
One stroke of Red Tears ended the Formless Hero's existence.
No matter how the Wish-Granting Machine struggled, no matter how much energy it absorbed from the entire Nation of Spirit Prayer, it was all futile.
The moment it dissipated.
The entire world fell into deathly silence.
Beep, beep-
A light sound rang out in the air.
Silvery-white radiance fell from the shattered Wish-Granting Machine.
At Ye Qiyan's command, Eve brought WALL-E back from below, and Ye Qiyan gently stroked the little robot's head.
The system's Light Screen appeared before him.
