Even if the light in the City of Holy Light is dazzling and radiant, it cannot conceal the darkness in this world.
The glory of one city is far from enough for the whole world.
This is a miraculous city built on ideals, but the outside world is already in despair.
dark.
The world has long been plunged into darkness.
Ning Feng's eyes turned dark and deep, like an abyss that devoured the soul of the person before him.
Hurley: ! ! ?
Darkness, what darkness?
What is he saying?!
The terrifying aura lasted only a moment before Ning Feng quickly withdrew it, reverting to his previous gentle demeanor.
Guh.
Heli swallowed hard, surprised that the man who had always been quiet had suddenly changed.
Although it was their first meeting, the aura emanating from this man made Hurley feel both strange and familiar.
It's like...
Just like it!
Hurley was simply curious about what the outside world had become, but he never expected it would trigger such a change.
"You are……"
He only had time to utter that one shout before his voice abruptly stopped.
!!
The world before my eyes suddenly changed drastically!
Black, endless darkness!
Why is it so dark?!
All I could see was darkness, and a chilling aura began to fill my body.
Heli felt as if he had suddenly stepped into a cold, lifeless night.
It was filled with deathly silence and despair.
Where am I?
What on earth happened?!
"Who!? Someone, please save me!"
Fear gripped his heart, and Hurley cried out helplessly.
"My lord!"
Subconsciously wanting to ask the Lord of Holy Light for help, Heli raised his head, wanting to look at the blazing sun in the sky.
But this time, he did not see the warm sun.
"My lord! Please save... me."
There was indeed a sun overhead.
However, it was not the blazing sun he knew.
Instead, it was a black sun!
Like the eyes of an abyss opening, they were silently looking down upon him.
"Aaaaaah!!!"
...
...
Heli stood frozen in place, his eyes wide as if he had seen something unbelievable, while Ning Feng stood beside him, sighing in disbelief:

"I almost forgot why I came here in the first place."
Am I here to visit, having been invited?
Did you come here alone just to appreciate this city?
Or is it to understand the true thoughts of the Lord of Holy Light from these details?
No, none of those are true.
How the Lord of Light treats her followers is none of his business.
He came at the invitation and had no other purpose.
The outside world cannot change his mind, nor should it.
"If even I waver, what about them?"
If even the prophet closed his eyes to the dazzling illusion, what about those waiting behind him?
Ning Feng must not be misled by the beauty of this place.
Ordinary people deserve everything here; they are more entitled to it than others.
But not now.
Now is not the time.
Just as Ning Feng had once said to everyone in the Prophet's Council:
"You may fall on this road, or you may die in some unknown corner, where no one can find you."
"But do not give up, do not be sad, and do not despair."
"We will definitely achieve our goal!"
"You are pioneers, the goals that successors will strive for. Even if you fall, there will be successors to take over the tasks you have carried on."
Moreover, Ning Feng kept telling them:
"Don't worry about getting lost, I will always guide you."
“I am standing right in front of you.”
"Don't worry about being forgotten; I will remember each and every one of you."
“You will not truly perish, your deeds will not be buried, and your souls will be immortal.”
He said:
"I will carry you forward."
"Whether it's your soul or your ideals."
This was his vow.
However, placing all one's hopes on one person is abnormal and extremely irresponsible.
The world does not need a savior who falls from the sky.
No single savior can do everything, even if he possesses unparalleled power.
There are limits to individual heroism.
One person cannot save the world.
What's truly needed to save a twisted world is the collective effort of countless people.
This is definitely not something that one person, a group of people, or even a generation can accomplish.
This requires the hard work of countless people, a cause to which generations have dedicated their youth.
However, this endeavor also faces other risks in addition to the erosion of time.
As time goes by, successors may forget the original goals of their predecessors over a long period of time, and eventually gradually go astray or even go completely in the opposite direction.
Therefore, they need a guide to lead them forward.
A leader who can remain true to his original aspirations throughout this long period of time.
