——All the residents have died, which means that Su Lin had actually failed at that time.

Su Lin did not fulfill his wish to keep the other half of the people alive. Instead, as planned, all the people who went up died. They successfully saved resources and allowed the remaining half of the people on Praia to survive.

...Su Lin was the only one who survived among those who ascended.

Su Mingan had previously seen from Su Lin’s memory stone that the mermaid had blessed Su Lin with a body that was not troubled by poison gas.

Perhaps it was because of this that Su Lin did not die from the poison gas like other residents, but instead survived successfully and was favored by the gods, making him the most favored existence of the gods, the "despicable one in heaven", and the only person to come down from Yunshang City.

That way, it all makes sense.

Last night, during the night session of the fourth level, Su Mingan tried to change the situation by assigning different soldiers. He even allowed the red and blue sides to fight to the death, making the situation one-sided.

But the final result was that his contribution value did not meet the passing requirements, he failed and died directly.

After going back to the game, he also tried to "sell" some of the soldiers, but the selling prompt was "After the sale, the soldier will no longer believe in the Demon King, and all previous contributions will be wiped out."

He could only sell some of the soldiers he had just received, and this sale was useless.

He still couldn't guess that in the final level of "The Devil and the Brave", the "brave man" who would come up would be himself, the "despicable man", or Shelude and the others?

If the person who finally attacks you is you, how should you control the demon king to avoid passing the final level while avoiding killing yourself?

...This is a very troublesome problem.

He took out the blood bottle and filled it up, recovering the blood lost from using the teleportation pocket watch.

At the end of the fourth level, he had already expanded the Demon King's Castle to the highest level, just waiting for the final hero to come up. Presumably, the fifth level would be the final battle.

He waited for the night to fall.

…

Outside the southern city wall, temporary Soul Hunting Command Center.

Knowing that it was impossible to kill the Kraken King, everyone worked overtime to repair the barrier.

Under Ying's order, they are unconditionally collecting resource stones from the entire Praia to repair this last line of defense in order to hold out for a little longer, until the Siren King is unwilling to bother with them anymore, and until the Siren army retreats.

At this time, many people gathered here, some were pushing carts to move bricks, some were transporting the injured, some were delivering materials, and some were sitting on the spot to rest. This area was full of busy people, even residents without fighting ability were working for free, many people were so tired that they fell asleep, snoring.

With snowflakes and dust flying in the air... this campsite gathers many local residents, and even players who have received temporary tasks such as "moving bricks" and "delivering letters". Players will take on some simple errands here to get some meager points to buy blood bottles.

"Les, give me that bag of bread!"

"You are so stupid, can't you collect it yourself? The distribution point is over there, look, it's a temporary house that looks like a mound of earth." A carefree local male resident pointed impatiently, fiddling with his hair that had just been cut before the sea feast began, and chatted with the beautiful girl who was reading a letter next to him:

"Hey, Linda, you look really...smart today."

"You can't be carrying bricks here in a skirt, can you? Honey, I know that red skirt is very nice, but I don't want to get it dirty here... I think if we can survive, I might be able to wear that skirt and have dinner with you." The girl smiled at him with her hands covering her mouth.

"I feel like we can't hold on here anymore," the male resident said with a wry smile.

"——What nonsense are you talking about? I swear to God, even if my head is broken, this barrier will not be broken!" A strong man lying on rags next to him shouted: "It's okay that the Siren King is recuperating, but if she dares to come again, she will never come back! You might as well relax and lie here like me. Although the ground is a little cold, it's better than staying up all night..."

"But Lord Su Lin is dead." The smile on the girl's face disappeared, and her expression became a little sad.

She looked at the residential building that had been requisitioned as the temporary headquarters of the Soul Hunters: "Perhaps we shouldn't smile so happily. There's a funeral going on over there."

"It's a proper sacrifice, so there's no need to be too sad. At least, he bought us a chance to repair the barrier."

In the corner, a white-haired old man who was smoking a big pipe blew out smoke rings from his mouth.

His somewhat cloudy eyes looked into the distance, as if he was reminiscing about something:

“… More than sixty years ago, when I was still a child, I saw Lord Su Lin’s appearance. He looked no different from now… He must have made preparations when he came down this time.” As he spoke, his distant gaze gradually moved downwards: “He is a person blessed by the gods. Even if he dies, his soul will surely ascend to heaven. Perhaps, at some point, we will be able to see his immortal soul again… Ghost…”

The girl blinked.

Just as she was about to turn around, she heard the manly-looking guy next to her start screaming, his voice as tragic as a high-decibel soprano.

“Aaaaaaaa——”

For a moment, the screams merged into one, like a group of out-of-tune sopranos singing.

She turned back immediately.
