'What is going on?'

In the [Imperial Palace].

The existence known as the "Emperor of the End" by the outside world, even at this critical moment, his expression still appears very calm.

At most, there is a little bit of surprise flowing in my heart.

On the whole.

For the destruction of the world.

For the extinction of all things.

In fact, there were no overly strong emotions arising in His heart.

Even if... everything that perished actually belonged to His empire, it would still be the same.

To those things that were destroyed.

Although He felt it was a bit regretful, it was only a tiny bit.

Compared to those unimportant things, He cares more about the reasons behind the current situation.

That power that can destroy the world inexplicably in an instant.

Where does it come from?

What purpose does it have?

These are the key issues he is thinking about.

For a while.

Thoughts in my mind keep flowing.

Various speculations continue to emerge.

'Is it those restless guys?'

Regarding this speculation.

After thinking for a moment.

He denied it directly.

Those guys simply don't have the ability.

He knew this very well.

In other words, if they simply destroyed the world, those guys might be able to do it, if He didn't stop them...

But, if I want to do this without Him noticing...

That's totally impossible.

Those guys simply don't have that ability.

so.

His thoughts changed immediately.

at the same time.

His gaze also looked at other places in the air.

In this boundless chaotic void where all things have perished, even with wave after wave of nothingness blocking his vision, he still managed to see a large number of survivors.

In His perception.

The vast majority of those survivors are awakened ones whose strength has reached the [Transcendence Stage].

There are only a very small number of survivors who are the [Infinite Stage Awakeners] who are particularly powerful and have excellent luck among their peers.

As for the weaker ones, the [Infinite Stage Awakeners]...

Nine times out of ten, they were all wiped out.

Even the previous force had no ill intention towards any living being.

But as the huge destructive shock wave caused by the destruction of the world spreads wildly.

That power was like a weapon of mass destruction that attacked indiscriminately, directly causing devastating damage to the weak, wiping them all out...

It was also at this time.

He couldn't help but think.

If the target of that power was not the world itself, but Him, then how could He be safe and sound! ?

After thinking about it.

What He will get as a result is... it is still unknown.

Because He didn't sense the true nature of that power at all.

He has absolutely no idea about the other party's background.

Therefore, there is a natural lack of understanding of the dangers involved, and it is impossible to make a real comparison.

In His view, those guys who died before were essentially a group of weaklings who were buried by a landslide.

Although the power to destroy the world does not pose any direct danger to living things, the various phenomena caused by it are completely different...

It's like an earthquake.

Generally speaking, earthquakes are just earthquakes. As long as there are no collapsed objects or sunken terrain nearby, ordinary people will not be in any danger. The worst that can happen is that they will be shaken a few times.

therefore.

In many cases.

The damage caused by earthquakes themselves to living things is actually very limited.

However, the various phenomena caused by it are extremely lethal, and all kinds of collapsed objects can kill people in minutes.

And the same was true of the previous force.

In the eyes of [Emperor End].

The previous force actually had no intention of targeting any living being.

The other party's goal is absolutely the entire world itself.

Right now.

Various natural environments and natural factors.

All the dead people essentially died from the chain reactions caused by the destruction of various environments and from various phenomena when the world collapsed.

The reason why all the survivors were able to survive successfully was not because they were strong enough to successfully resist that force, but only because they resisted the various side effects caused by that force.

The actual gap between the two is difficult to measure.

It can be infinitely small.

It can also be infinite.

Like an ant being stepped on by a human but not dying.

Although there is a slight possibility that its shell is relatively hard.

But the greater possibility is that the other party did not step on it or did not step on it intentionally, which allowed the ant to survive by chance in the gap under the other party's feet.

Compared to strength.

It's more about luck...

That's why.

[Emperor of the End] actually had no idea of ​​the actual strength of that power.

Movements that He ignored.

Various activities when the world is destroyed.

It's just a minor side effect caused by that force.

He did not face that power at all.

certainly.

The same goes for the rest of the survivors.

Compared to the survivors, we are actually the ones who are ignored...

I was completely ignored by that power...

Think of this.

[Emperor End] also became more interested in things.

As for the destroyed world?

He thought the matter was harmless enough.

At worst, I can just spend some time to create a new one...

Anyway, the so-called world itself is not something that is too important...

but.

Although He was very calm.

I was so calm that I could just close my eyes and fall asleep peacefully.

But the rest of the survivors may not be so sure...

at the moment.

Faced with the sight of everything perishing, most of the survivors seemed very excited and even very irritable...

Rage is spreading in their hearts.

That was the raging anger of something important being destroyed unexpectedly!!

Their relatives and friends, their territories, their treasures...

Many things were destroyed in this sudden catastrophe.

Even those awakeners whose strength had reached the [Transcendence Stage] suffered actual losses.

The situation is equivalent to not only the dining table being overturned.

Even the house was set on fire.

so.

Everyone's mood is naturally known without asking.

Even those strong men who usually have the best tempers couldn't control their emotions.

certainly.

besides.

In their hearts.

There are also emotions such as astonishment, fear, hesitation...

Faced with the power that could destroy everything in an instant.

Deep down, all the survivors have no idea...

Because it happened too suddenly.

I still feel a little bit overwhelmed.
