Let the night be quiet.
She did feel a warm current slowly flowing from Linna's body into hers, gradually restoring her health.
'This is just healing, there's nothing between us...'
Thinking this through the night, Ye'er gently closed her eyes.
With her back to Lin Nai, nestled in his arms, Ye'er felt a strange sense of peace and gradually drifted off to sleep.
......
I don't know how much time has passed.
The sky had turned completely dark.
The purple mist on the ground grew increasingly thick.
A black sun appeared in the pitch-black night sky, and darkness quickly spread across the earth, enveloping everything...
Meanwhile, as night fell, a strange purple plant began to grow rapidly underground.
The ceiling and earthen walls of the underground city gradually bulged up, as if something was wriggling inside.
Immediately afterwards, clusters of strange, purple fungi sprouted from the ground.
More and more purple mushrooms are growing from the ceiling and walls of the dungeon, like stalactites, covering the entire top of the dungeon...
......

"Um?"
Linna opened her eyes.
What's going on?
Night also woke up, her scarlet eyes flashing with coldness: "I knew it, it really wasn't that simple."
Linnaeus sniffed the air and seemed to detect a strange smell.
This smell made him feel that many of the monsters and undead in the Sea of the Dead seemed to be stirring.
After listening quietly to the sounds outside for a while, Ye'er whispered, "It sounds like someone's coming, and more than one."
Linna said softly, "Pretend to be asleep first, and see what they're up to."
Night: "Mmm."
The two closed their eyes again, pretending to be asleep.
"Knock...knock...knock..."
The heavy footsteps approached the tin shack where Linna and the others lived.
"Squeak..."
Someone opened the door to the room.
In the dim light, Linna and Yewan both quietly opened their eyes a crack.
I saw the young scavenger standing at the door.
However, the honest and simple smile was gone from his face; instead, he wore a blank and cold expression.
He stood outside the door, staring intently at Linna and Yewan, who were sleeping nestled together on the bed. After observing them carefully for a while, he seemed still uneasy and tentatively asked in a low voice, "Lady Linna?"
Linna & Night: "..."
After confirming that the two were likely unconscious, the young scavenger revealed a sinister smile: "I thought they were so powerful, but under the power unleashed by our Evil God, they're no different from ordinary superhumans, utterly vulnerable?"
'Lord Evil God? '
Lin Nai wondered to himself, what is that thing?
At this moment, the other residents of the underground town also gathered around and blocked the entrance.
The faces were grim and numb; all the men, women, the old and the children had the same expression, and they held weapons such as hoes, pickaxe handles and wooden sticks in their hands.
Linnaeus also noticed that there was a faint purple glow around the necks of these people...
'Demonic energy...'
At night, they sensed a large amount of demonic energy surrounding them...
Moreover, these demonic energies appeared suddenly, as if they had sprung up out of thin air.
"But, it's so strange."
A woman in her forties said, "Wasn't Linnaeus supposed to have died three years ago? Why did he...?"
"Heh, who cares?" another old man said. "Even if he's an imposter Linnaeus, he's still a superhuman! Superhumans are the dirtiest people in the world! Those creatures who spout righteous rhetoric but are actually hypocritical and heartless!"
"That's right, everyone should remember how we ordinary people were oppressed by superhumans back then, right?"
"Of course I remember! Especially those Night's Watchmen, always talking about protecting the city-state and its people. Hahaha, actually they're only talking about those extraordinary individuals with superhuman talents, while we ordinary people aren't even considered human in their eyes! Just a bunch of lowly worker ants! Just a bunch of tools to help them produce!"
"That's right, hahaha! I still remember when the monsters invaded, thousands of us were trapped in the building. One of the Night Watchmen, to protect a Level 1 Transcendent, chose to watch over a thousand of our lives die instead of saving him! That's how my son died back then, hahahahahaha... hahahahahaha..."
"Fortunately, the appearance of the evil god was enough to destroy these vile creatures!"
"That's right!!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"......"
Amidst the angry shouts, the purple light around the necks of these ragged underground townspeople shone even brighter.
Linnaeus looked closely at the purple glow emanating from the necks of the townspeople and discovered that it was actually a character.
A special demonic script, or rather, a symbol.
'Cursed Seal!'
Linna suddenly realized something.
This thing is exactly the same as the mark on Lieutenant Li's body when he turned into a purple monster!
"Alright, let's begin."
The scavenger youth waved his hand and said coldly, "Drag them out and offer them to the Evil God. Whether this guy is really Linnaeus or not, he is a genuine apostle. I have personally witnessed him using divine power. The Evil God will definitely be very happy. Perhaps he will even bestow more Purple Fungus as a reward! He might even agree to let us become true demon descendants!"
Upon hearing this, several people standing behind him showed excited and enthusiastic expressions.
It's as if becoming a demon descendant is a very honorable thing!
Several people came in, seemingly preparing to drag Linna and Yewan out.
However, at this time
Suddenly, Ye'er opened her eyes.
His scarlet eyes immediately swept over everyone present.
The terrifying aura and oppressive force rendered everyone immobile for a moment.
"you......"
The young scavenger's eyes widened.
"boom--!"
The tin house was instantly blasted apart by the demonic energy!
Screams and explosions mingled together.
Countless figures flew past, accompanied by pieces of sheet metal and planks blasted away by the explosion...
The entire underground city shook...
