The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Before leaving for the vacation, Klaus gave his team a mission to clear all 34 Tier 9 Forbidden Zones, all 6 remaining Badlands, and the various places where some of the most dangerous monsters and beasts are hidden.

Not all of the Tier 10 and 11 monsters and beasts live in forbidden zones; some live on the outside,

However, thanks to Abyss, they managed to locate them, so they were added to the list of threats they would be handling.

Of course, with someone like Skar, Nyxthar, and Veylor leading the mission, their speed was rather quick. It had already been six days into their mission, but they had cleared 8 Tier 9 Forbidden Zones.

The Tier Nine Forbidden Zones they cleared weren’t for the faint of heart. They were some of the most dangerous zones they’ve ever fought in. However, the team wasn’t weak either.

Additionally, the reason they were so dangerous was that Klaus instructed them to capture the Tier 9, 10, and 11 monsters and beasts alive.

Skar can tell which ones will resonate with Klaus’s blood well. Those ones were the only ones knocked out. They are potential powerhouses that Earth can rely on.

With Klaus being a transcendent, his Star Monarch bloodline became much stronger, so he knew even Tier 9 beasts had the chance of becoming Tier 11 if their innate talent was a little stronger.

So, after clearing 8 Tier Nine Forbidden Zones, they managed to gather 210 Tier 9s, 70 Tier 10s, 20 Tier 11s, and even a newly ascended Tier 12.

As it turns out, Abyss’s data wasn’t precise. Of course, he made them aware that his data was only 80% accurate.

The 20% refers to those who still managed to evade surveillance.

But even so, they managed to clear all forbidden zones in the Northern Union, and since the Badlands had already been handled, they were about to head to the Southern Union.

Currently, in Zyran City, the team is having dinner at one of the city’s largest restaurants. Of course, Zyran City is the food hub, so they managed to take over an entire restaurant, given their high numbers.

All of Klaus’s friends and their girlfriends, the Overlords, the Grand Elders, the Doom Guards, excluding Eren, the Beast Arm, the Ant Legion led by Ling and Zing, Tess, and Sura, were on the mission.

Of course, with so many powerful figures appearing all of a sudden in the city, they were bound to create a scene, so naturally, the media were already gathering around.

Meanwhile, inside the restaurant, Danny was making Klaus proud, for the food was being devoured by him the way Klaus would.

“I can’t believe you managed to eat 40 plates in less than 20 minutes, Danny. Where is the food going?” Kilian asked, watching as his friend devoured one plate after another.

Danny didn’t mind him; instead, he was more focused on the food.

He needed it for that is where he gains his stamina from. As a giant, food is something he cannot have enough of.

After a while, when the hunger subsided, he raised his head and looked at everyone. “No need to look at me like that. I know I am handsome; you don’t have to tell me with your eyes.”

Of course, Klaus rubbed off on him. His shamelessness mirrors Klaus’s. But he is indeed handsome to the point that one of the waiters was already eyeing him.

Naturally, the harmless Yasmin sat close to her man, making sure no vixen set their sight on her. It was safe to say she was failing, for among the ladies, she was the most harmless.

Lucy can heal, but she can also kill, giving her that natural warrior aura. But Yasmin isn’t like that. She is innocent and only took her life when her friends managed to subdue the beast.

Essentially, her nature is pure and innocent to the point that even after taking Klaus’s blood, her improvement ultimately contributed to her healing side.

She didn’t get a class that would allow her to kill. So her intimidating presence was just too inviting to the point that she could tell she was merely inviting more eyes to her man.

She knew she wouldn’t be the only lady in Danny’s life, just like how Mark already had the Zhou twins. But she wasn’t about to make just any lady get close to him.

‘I might as well get used to it now. Klaus already has over 20 ladies in his life, and they all get along. If I get selfish, one day when it comes to it, I will regret it.

But I won’t allow this vixen to get near him. She is not worthy. Danny deserves someone who can do what I can’t.’

With that mindset locked in, she began protecting her man as if her life depended on it.

“So, Veylor, are you like millions of years old? I mean, the way you describe it, you were from way back. How does it work anyway?” Overlord Dharma asked, sitting across from Veylor and Nyxthar.

Through the missions, they bonded with the team, and it was then that they revealed they had come from a very long time ago.

Of course, they said nothing about serving Klaus in that life, but they claimed they were asleep, and it was Klaus who had awakened them; that was why they became his subordinates.

Even so, Dharma still wanted to know more about how any of it works.

“You can say we are millions of years old. However, eternal sleep is like pausing your age and entering a sleep that can last for billions of years, provided your cultivation base is high enough to sustain you.

The first 100,000 years utilize the energy within your body, and then, from there, your cultivation base will begin to be devoured.

I was just a step away from becoming a demigod back then, but I woke up as a Peak Ascendant. Calculating and adding other factors, I have been asleep for roughly 35 million years.”

“Wow, that’s a long time to be sleeping,” Grand Elder Ylthia said, eyeing the handsome Nyxthar, who was clueless about what the woman was doing.

“To me, it was a quick nap. From the moment I entered sleep, nothing else happening around me mattered.”

“And how old were you before entering the eternal sleep?” Scarlet asked.

“670,900 years. That was how long it took me to become a Lord Immortal and start cultivating my divinity.”

“Wow. I can’t believe one can be that old and still look handsome,” Grand Elder Nyselle said, giving Veylor a smile that the Archer, unlike Nyxthar, knew what it meant.

Of course, as someone who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years and had broken quite a few hearts, he knew where this was going.

“Don’t worry, soon you will all be going into seclusion for thousands of years, just to learn a skill. Trust me, soon, the passing of time will be but a blink of an eye for you.”

“So, how old can one get before they die?” Daniel asked.

“Death by age becomes irrelevant after you become a True Immortal. After you get to that level, the only thing you should be concerned about is someone stronger than you coming for your head.

Even so, if your body is destroyed and your soul survives, you can reform a new body using treasures.”

Everyone became quiet, already anticipating when they would reach that stage. It is far in the future, but they know they will one day get there.

After dinner, they spent a few hours in Zyran City before leaving. Their next destination was the Southern Union, where more danger awaited them.
