Just as Gardner was immersed in his own world, sacrificing himself and Katis, Yun Shuchang finally stumbled and arrived at Margaret's side.
"team leader!
!
Losing her balance, she fell right in front of Margaret.
winter.
Ignoring the legend above her, Yun Shuchang used the momentum of her forward momentum to crawl to Margaret's side, who was collapsed on the ground, and called out in a hoarse voice:
"Margaret! Hey! Are you alright? Can you hear me?"
How is the situation?
Actually, there's no need to ask for the answer at all.
Without even touching her, just by looking, Yun Shuchang could understand exactly what kind of terrible state Margaret was in.
The Margaret before me was completely different from before. Her once strong muscles were now completely withered and shrunken, and her skin was loose and wrinkled. She was just a withered figure supported by a skeleton.
It resembles withered straw.
This is the backlash after the burning bloodline was forcibly stopped.
It condenses everything in the future into a single moment; while gaining power, the corresponding price is equally cruel.
Legend is truly an insurmountable barrier.
Seemingly finally regaining some clarity after being shaken, Margaret moved her head with difficulty, her lifeless eyes looking in the direction of Yun Shuchang.
The child's eyes were completely unfocused; she asked almost silently:
"Is it... comfortable?"
"It's me! Captain, are you alright!?"
He's still conscious! There's still hope!
After a pause, Margaret didn't answer, but her lips moved slightly:
"Hurry up..."
Forget about me, get out of here quickly, don't let my sacrifice be in vain.
As long as you survive, I have not failed.
"Leave? I'd like to leave..."
Yun Shuchang gave a wry smile, looked up at the sky, and saw the figure falling in their direction.
"But it seems it's too late."
Although this is the final outcome, at least we are together.
Thinking this, Yun Shuchang looked around trying to find Jiang Wan, but after looking for a long time, she couldn't find her anywhere.
No?
"Did you manage to escape in the chaos?"
OK.
It's good that they were able to escape.
As if all the power had been drained from her body, Yun Shuchang let out a breath.
"You must survive."
She gently embraced Margaret's upper body, letting her neck rest comfortably against her chest.
"Only the two of us old maids are left; the young girls are all safe."
It's at least safer than the two of us.
"Walk……"
Walk?
"I'm not leaving anymore. This is how it is. I can't just leave you alone, can I?"
Having given up struggling, Yun Shuchang, completely exhausted, hugged Margaret, intending to simply wait for the final outcome, but suddenly heard Margaret's faint voice in her ear.
She is saying:
"With little fish..."
Hurry up.
Yun Shuchang: !
In an instant, it felt as if lightning flashed through her previously powerless body, causing Yun Shuchang's tired eyes to widen suddenly.
What?
Is Chu Yu not in a safe place?!
Yun Shuchang had always thought that Chu Yu had reached a safe place and was waiting for them, but she never expected it to turn out like this.
If Chu Yu isn't in a safe place, what about Jiang Wan? Did she manage to escape?
despair.
Are we really going to accept this kind of death?
Is this our destiny?
...
...
Cough cough cough!
His limbs also twitched to varying degrees, and fine lines appeared on Gardner's aged body, as if it were about to break.
Ignoring the central tank pointing its cannon at him, he was lost in his own world, reciting with deep emotion:
"Souls accumulated here for hundreds of years, the fresh flesh and blood of tens of thousands of extraordinary beings, the lives of two legends..."
He kept coughing up blood, but Gardner's eyes did become brighter and brighter, almost like two searchlights.
"Everything is ready!"
He sang aloud:
"I offer the blood of this lowly servant as a sacrifice to you in my heartfelt prayer!"
Card!
Above his head, crimson clouds rose from the sky, and a massive vortex began to gather.
"Wake up!"
Come back!
"My lord!
!
But right after Gardner roared, nothing happened in the sky except for the blood-red clouds that still lingered.
Um?
Startled for a moment, Yun Shuchang looked at Gardner, who was still waiting in the sky in his pose, and sneered:
"Pshaw! What's this? Nothing happened, did it?"
But the very next moment after Yun Shuchang finished speaking...
Card!
A loud bang echoed through the sky!
Soon, the blood-red clouds began to tremble violently, revealing a terrifying phenomenon.
In the center of the sky, a huge hole was torn open, revealing the dark starry sky behind it, twinkling with countless stars.
From the moment the sky shattered, a terrifying aura emanated from above.
Majestic, ancient, indifferent... that aura of being high above, looking down on the world.
It is undoubtedly from the gods.
Guh.
"A deity... has descended?"
Holding the captain tightly, she looked up dejectedly at the scene that seemed like the end of the world.
"impossible……"
