Chapter 179 179. The 13th Beam of Light Rises
[The midnight phantom that appeared in Cloud City earlier was due to this, but it was only a phantom. While living beings and extraordinary beings in the present world could step into midnight through it, things within midnight were still restricted and could not leave.]
[But as long as the transformation continues, sooner or later, Midnight and Cloud City will merge into one.]
[However, you are too much of a variable, disrupting His plans step by step. From the beginning to now, you have caused His plans to fail at least three times!]
[Remember that fragment? It didn't belong to Midnight. It was something He had snatched from the sky to prepare for this day. He relied on it to tear open the passage between the present world and Midnight. However, you snatched it away, preventing the crack from widening further.]
[You even managed to seize control of the Cloud City Mist with the fragments, preventing his plan from being fully successful. You also killed all the fake archbishops he fabricated, and now he has no choice but to use the Blood Eye to change the arrangement.]
[It must have taken quite a bit of effort to temporarily create these blood eyes that could break through midnight and the present world.]
[Who would have thought that you would be able to sever these eyes that do not exist in this world, disrupting His remedial measures once again.]
Xu Zhi looked innocent: "What should we do then?"
[He can't do anything to you for now. In fact, because of your disruption, his plans for Yuncheng have probably become a mess.]
If he fails to allow Midnight to fully descend upon the world, he will lose a powerful aid, which will be extremely detrimental to his plan.
So, next, He will probably tear the crack in the seal of the small alien. After all, time is running out, and you possess the ability to sever the Blood Eye. He has no time to change his plans and can only widen the crack to allow as much of the Midnight Breath as possible to infiltrate the living world.
Xu Zhi frowned. If the other party really did that, she probably wouldn't be able to stop it.
The narrator seemed to see clearly what she was worried about.
If He truly resisted the rules of midnight and tore open a rift, He must have made up His mind to fight to the bitter end. There was no need to stop Him. The backlash from simply opening the rift would be enough to injure Him.
[And what He wants to do, even if the impact of some injuries might be enough to cause failure, at that time, He will definitely not have time to care about you.]
"Is this what you mean by avoiding the peak?"
【No. 】
The narrator retorted.
[His plan hasn't been going smoothly so far, but this won't change His purpose. The plan has already begun, and even He can't stop. Once discovered, He won't have a second chance.]
If you are discovered, there will be no second chance.?
Xu Zhi felt that this was a bit strange, as if this supreme being was just trying to find opportunities in the cracks.
[When He swings His sword towards the sky, whether He succeeds or fails, that will be His weakest moment!]
[As long as you seize that opportunity, you will have the possibility of defeating Him.]
Although Xu Zhi was concerned about the narration,
"Are you okay?"
Xu Zhi watched the battery level of the game console drop as the narration's words emerged, just like a leaking battery. She couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Not great, but that’s okay.
The narrator obviously won't use words like "I'm fine" to comfort people, but will directly say that he is indeed not feeling well.
[If you sense a strong aura approaching from the crack, have the small alien species leave immediately.]
[Don't waste cores. Save as many as you can. You'll need them later.]
【Remember these words I have spoken, especially when He comes.】
After saying this, the narration disappeared again.
As the moment got closer, the narrator began to ignore the hidden backlash and tried his best to tell Xu Zhi some information, as if it would be too late if he didn't say it now.
For several days afterwards, Xu Zhi called for the narrator but it never appeared.
Xu Zhi wasn't sure if it was the backlash from what he had said, or some other reason?
After the second beam of light appeared in the Federation, it was as if a switch was turned on. The subsequent beams of light appeared much faster, and there were even two beams of light appearing at the same time.
When 12 beams of light appeared, the Federation had completely changed.
The sky is no longer bright, and the sun hanging high in the sky has been dyed red by the light column. The people of the Federation are not unfamiliar with this red sun. It appeared once more than half a year ago. It only appeared for a short while that time, and it brought the archbishop who made the Federation anxious. Now that the red sun hangs high in the sky for a long time, what will it bring?
The sea level rose, plants withered, animals went crazy, the temperature dropped, the [Cup] attribute pollution in the air was everywhere, and even ordinary humans began to go crazy.
Not to mention that some weak supernatural power users even triggered a small conflict of supernatural attributes in their bodies simply because of the overly strong [Cup] attribute energy in the air.
But more importantly, the number of believers is increasing rapidly, but they no longer kill humans, but instead strangely control their behavior.
It's really incredible that these brainless creatures can control their desires.
And Yuncheng seemed to be a pure land. There was no pollution of the [Cup] attribute here. Although some of it was mixed in the fog, it was much better than the outside world.
Even though he knew that Yuncheng was not a pure land and would not be spared after everything started, Xu Zhi still offered a high price to sell tickets to Yuncheng.
She needs the core.
Now Xu Zhi’s core reserves alone even exceed the federal inventory, but she continues to make money, as if she will never be satisfied.
The people in the Federation don't even understand this. The end of the world is coming, and you have collected such a huge number of cores by yourself, which you can't use up at all, and you don't share them with others. Are you going to hold on to them?
In their eyes, Xu Zhi has become the ultimate example of a miser.
What will the atmosphere be like before the end of the world?
Today's Federation seems to have illustrated this point very well. The rich have moved into Cloud City, the "Noah's Ark", and the poor who stay in the Federation either pray for the Federation to do something, or pray to God to save the people, or simply start squandering money before the end of the world really comes.
An extremely sad and depressing atmosphere of madness spread throughout the Federation. More and more people turned to believe in the [Cup] attribute, so many that the Federation could not control it. Logically, there should be a lot of violent conflicts and bloodshed in such a situation, but surprisingly, these seemed to occur only in small quantities between ordinary people and extraordinary people without the [Cup] attribute.
The atmosphere in the Federation is not good, but things in Cloud City are not peaceful either.
Zhong Lingfan was running around in various laboratories. Shen Jinwen wiped the knife beside him and looked at his hometown with longing. Although Lin Zizhen looked anxious, his eyes were firm. He had finally lived a decent life and didn't want to die in a disaster.
Xu Zhi leaned on the little alien, stroking the little kitten in her hand. Since waking up, the kitten no longer maintained its arrogant look and was willing to cuddle with her.
She had done almost everything she could, but the connection between [Authority] and the fragments was still not smooth. There was always something stuck there that prevented her from making any progress. Xu Zhi sighed, feeling a rare sense of helplessness.
As another day passed, it was time for the sun to rise, but the sun of the Federation never rose again.
What rose up was the last and 13th beam of red light.
