People in peacetime always like to imagine that heroes will appear in works of art to break the originally peaceful and boring daily life.

But after truly experiencing darkness and the absence of light, where even breathing a breath of fresh air without radiation is incredibly difficult, you will understand...

Hero, this word only exists in the fantasy of works of art.

When Lin Chen was born, it was just a few years after the end of the War of Destruction. The sky was obscured by radioactive dust, a heavy pollution that even nature could not purify. Most of the land in the world lost its sunlight, the temperature began to drop, and the Little Ice Age arrived.

What troubled the remaining humans at that time was the subsequent great famine, high-concentration radiation pollution, and a sharp drop in surface temperature. No crops could be grown normally, and the mutated animals and plants in the wild were inedible. Even eating a little bit would be highly poisonous and fatal.

Therefore, most of the remaining humans who survived the pollution, radiation and cold could not survive the digestive function of their stomachs. Scenes of cannibalism and using bones as firewood were not uncommon in those years.

But fortunately, compared to some of his peers who were eaten, Lin Chen was extremely lucky. He had the protection of his grandfather and father and was qualified to live in an underground radiation shelter, so no matter how chaotic, dark, terrifying, or inhumane the outside world was.

He may have heard of it, but he has not experienced it personally.

But Lin Chen's life is definitely not good. Not to mention compared with the old humans in peacetime, even compared with the current residents of Luogong City, the gap is too huge.

In the underground shelter, although Lin Chen did not have to worry about the threat of death day and night, the quilt he slept on was just a patched shroud, and the food he ate was made of inferior materials and had no taste.

As for water?

Naturally, the water was contaminated. In such a harsh environment, even a little purification was a blessing. If you didn't drink it, you'd die. If you drank it, you might survive. Many residents of the shelter suffered malignant mutations from drinking contaminated water, ultimately dying miserably in pain and suffering.

His mother is one of them.

His father also suffered from the illness caused by long-term radiation pollution and died of brain cancer just a few years after humans stepped out of the ground to explore again.

There were not many families that survived in the shelter. Most of them were like him, with only one or two members left, or all of them died. The causes of death were all strange, but most of them were caused by radiation contamination and food shortages.

But even so, we are much luckier than the 99% of humans who died on the surface.

After Lin Chen walked out of the surface, he encountered a mutated and terrifying monster during an exploration of the ruins. When he was about to die, he awakened the Force and became one of the first new humans to awaken the Force and break free from the constraints of the original life structure.

But the price was that his friends and his lover all died in that exploration of the ruins.

Even after so many years, the smiles of friends and lovers from those days still resonate before my eyes. Not the miserable moments of being devoured by monsters, but the moments of exploring and having fun together when we were young.

"Is this a quick tour before death?"

The memories of the past kept replaying in his mind. Lin Chen thought a little tiredly and tried to support his arms, but when he looked, his hands were empty, without arms or legs.

After the body was broken many times, the soul suffered irreversible trauma. Even the underworld had reached a limit and could no longer easily heal the body.

Now, only half of his body has healed, and the other half is still struggling to stir up the flesh and blood, trying to reunite.

but...

The purple-eyed troll is too powerful!

It’s so powerful!

Powerful beyond imagination!

After Bai Shiying left the escape passage, Lin Chen and others began to use the core tower's defense matrix as a final means of fighting the enemy.

But he is no match at all...

The Purple-Eyed Troll uses some special secret technique or treasure to maintain its strength at the thirteenth ring for a long time, which is equivalent to the fifth level of the Nether Realm.

This level is already at the high level of the Nether Realm. Even Bai Shiying, who has the concept, was suppressed by it, not to mention Lin Chen who is only at the second level of the Nether Realm.

Because the Nether Realm has the characteristic of immortality of the physical body, the difference in strength is not as obvious as that in the Void Realm, but this is only limited to the first level.

The fifth level of the Nether Realm is three levels higher than the second level of the Nether Realm, and the difference in strength is more than dozens of times!

If Lin Chen had wanted to escape, he would have had a chance to do so, but he chose to fight for humanity, just like when he was young and first ventured into the ruins for humanity, and just like when he became a ghost and established Luogong City.

Every choice Lin Chen makes is to protect humanity and work for the revival of mankind.

This world needs more human heroes.

He chose to stand up. He is not the first and will not be the last.

When Fengchuan Hall was robbed by foreign trolls, he still chose to live and die with everything here, buying time for the residents of the fortified city on the surface to escape.

Relying on the last matrix in the control tower, the three trolls were restrained, but even so, their bodies were still broken and their souls were worn away.

Even the subordinates at the beginning were turned into ashes along with their conceptual weapons under the terrifying weapons of the three trolls, leaving no complete corpses.

But even if they died in battle here in the underground where there was no sunlight, none of the high-ranking officials of Luogong City surrendered, and none of them fled.

Just like the choice Lin Chen made.

“Hehe…” Seeing Lin Chen struggling to stand up, the purple-eyed troll just laughed strangely and uttered a faint mocking sound: “Humans on Earth are ultimately just low-level creatures. Being destroyed by higher-level creatures is simply in line with the laws of nature.”

"If you're unwilling to accept this, you can only go to hell and regret your own weakness... Oh, and your soul will soon be completely shattered. You won't even have the chance to go to hell, haha!"

At the end of his words, he actually burst into laughter.

To be honest, the Purple-eyed Troll was very annoyed. When he first encountered the white-haired woman, he was delayed for a long time. Later, the other party escaped with great difficulty. He had one less tough opponent, but he encountered a fearless Force user like Lin Chen again. With the help of the defense matrix, he was restrained for a long time and almost exhausted the power of his amplified secret treasure.

Now that he could finally kill the other person completely and grind the soul of a Netherworld Force user, how could he not be happy?

Bang——

But at this moment, a blood-red shadow fell from the sky and landed directly on the laughing purple-eyed troll, knocking his huge body off balance.
