【S-119 Blood Skull Vengeance Description, Effect: Burn your own life and essence blood, offering them to the blood skull to obtain temporary, overwhelming power!】
【Description: Burn life, ideals, soul... everything just for vengeance!】
This was the description of this S-rank Containment Object in the game 《Old Ones' Awakening》.
Currently, Liu Yun was the only one in Dawn City who could withstand its backlash.
And unleashing this was her desperate, life-risking move!
The immense pressure made everyone in the camp below unable to even lift their heads, let alone stand.
Before her, the colossal golden heavenly soldiers lit up simultaneously.
An almost blindingly white light erupted, as if intending to incinerate everything.
Countless golden arms raised at once, giant palms pressing against the red wall of wind, pushing forward.
It was as if they wanted to violently level the restricted zone before them!
“This...”
Standing in front of the console, Xie Xuan's eyes widened behind his glasses.
Even as someone who had seen his share of the world, he was utterly shocked by Liu Yun's power.
Furthermore, he found it hard to comprehend why Liu Yun had suddenly gone mad, acting as if she had witnessed something precious being destroyed before her eyes, her emotions completely collapsing.
With his younger brother still inside, Xie Xuan quickly called out,
“Prophet Liu Yun! What are you doing?!”
“You might end up killing everyone like this!”
Liu Yun turned a deaf ear. A mist of blood even erupted from her body!
The blood mist seeped from her pores, condensing into red threads in the air before being absorbed by the crimson skull.
Immediately, her power surged to a whole new level.
“You're insane...”
Xie Xuan muttered.
The heavenly soldiers continued their advance.
The wall of wind was forced back continuously.
Challenging a natural disaster with the strength of a single person!
...
Within the red soil.
Invisible pressure squeezed inward from all directions, causing every corner to tremble.
The wind pressure suddenly intensified.
The howling red wind swept past like knives, stinging everyone's skin as if it wanted to scrape the flesh right off their bones!
Many students who had already lost their minds and were on the verge of aberration were swept into the air, creating a chaotic dance of demons within the space.
On the other side.
Zhulong, dragging his battered body, was fighting for his life against Hong Jiu, Xiao Xinghan, and Xie Jin.
The moment space began to fluctuate violently, he was instantly taken aback.
Both of his heads looked up toward the sky simultaneously.
Then, he began to laugh.
“Hahaha!”
He spread his four arms wide, as if embracing the raging wind.
“As expected of Prophet Liu, to possess such power! Are you trying to ascend to Sainthood?”
“Did something upset you?”
He lowered his heads, his faces filled with manic excitement and the mockery of a dying man.
“It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!”
“Let's die together!”
“Together, let's offer all of this as a gift to the Mother Goddess!”
From the ground, from the corpses, and from the twitching bodies of the aberrations, massive quantities of red threads erupted.
The wind howled, the thread-like blood vessels danced wildly, humans and aberrations spun through the air, screaming and roaring...
It was like hell on earth.
...
The horde of aberrations had gone completely mad, pouncing on anything in sight.
Many of them roared, swarming toward Bai Feifei and Wan Qianhong in dense crowds.
With Wan Qianhong's fate unknown and Bai Feifei in a daze, He Jinfan was the only one standing guard beside them.
He had some decent strength after all; while he couldn't defeat Zhulong, holding off the attacks of these aberrations was not a problem.
In the gale, He Jinfan's robes rustled loudly. Controlling Dahei and utilizing his seemingly endless supply of weapons, he fended off the monsters.
He gritted his teeth and held the line, unable to retreat, cursing under his breath the entire time.
“What a mess...”
Sinking Black, where on earth did you go? Have you still not finished things up?!
I'm not going to be able to hold on much longer!
He was truly out of options.
If he ran, he felt it would be highly inappropriate. Wan Qianhong's selflessness had made him feel ashamed of his own posturing.
At a time like this, running away would be too shameless. He couldn't bring himself to do it.
But if he fought, his strength was insufficient. All he could do was protect the two behind him for now.
...
And behind the protective space He Jinfan maintained,
Bai Feifei crouched beside Wan Qianhong, utterly at a loss for how to save her.
Subconsciously, she frantically called out to Xu Mo in her mind.
Xu Mo remained silent for a long time before finally responding.
“Sigh,” Xu Mo's voice sounded somewhat helpless. “There's really nothing that can be done.”
Looking at the tragic state of Wan Qianhong, he felt a twinge of sorrow.
This Group Leader Wan had constantly opposed him in previous game cycles.
Yet this time, because of Bai Feifei, she had helped so wholeheartedly, leading to her dying a more tragic death than ever before. It made him sigh.
“Liu Yun outside seems to have gone mad too. She truly cherished this disciple of hers.”
“As for you, the best option is... to run.”
“Run?” Bai Feifei froze, her voice filled with bewilderment.
“Yeah.” Xu Mo's voice grew a bit colder. “For the current you, that's the most logical choice.”
“Your physical state can't hold out much longer. Can't you feel it?”
“What, want me to step in? When I make a move, it's usually not to save people~ Or perhaps you can think of a way yourself?”
Bai Feifei's eyes glazed over as she looked into the distance.
Her gaze swept past the madly pouncing aberrations, past the red threads dancing in the sky, and past the two-headed, four-armed monster.
She looked at Hong Jiu and the others who were still fighting for their lives on this hellish battlefield, at the fallen Wan Qianhong, at the crowd on the verge of aberration, and at the raging illusion.
She suddenly felt so incredibly weak...
Memories of her journey flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern.
She was the one who had claimed she wanted to save Dawn City.
The Old-Timer had long warned her that there was no hope, telling her to just treat it as a game and leave.
Yet she was the one who wanted to change history.
But now, after all this struggling, was the only result to subject everyone to even more horrific agony?
She truly could do nothing.
Could she only beg the Evil God at critical moments?
Then, she raised her head and stood up unconsciously.
Xu Mo said nothing, waiting quietly. He had a faint premonition that this situation might just be the catalyst Bai Feifei needed!
The power within Bai Feifei's body was surging.
At that moment, her heart began to beat furiously.
The Heart of the Real World within her chest.
Thump— Thump— Thump—
Each beat sounded like a drum in her chest, accompanying her restless soul.
At her chest, the illusory heart also began to glow.
A white light spread from her chest, surging through her meridians into every part of her body.
Just like the violent black when Xu Mo transformed.
This was Bai Feifei's own white!
A blazing, pure light that seemed intent on illuminating all darkness.
From the moment she stood up, she had felt an itch in her throat.
It was as if there were words desperate to escape her lips.
He Jinfan turned around, and seeing the white light emanating from Bai Feifei, he was startled.
“Wait, you are...”
Bai Feifei took a deep breath and took a step forward.
A stream of pure white energy surged from her heart, washing over her exhausted and battered body.
Bai Feifei opened her mouth and resolutely chanted her own Word Soul:
【The day gave me sincerity to pierce through falsehood!】
Rate on N.U.
