Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 832: Chapter 388: Victory and Elegy (Part 2)

In that instant, countless beings of the Yunling Civilization wailed.

Outside the fissure, Li Yelai only then raised his long spear.

It was impossible to clearly see what was happening within the fissure.

But he could sense a gaze piercing through from that distant future.

The gaze swept over the battlefield, witnessing the blood-drenched Wilderness Ranger fighting fiercely, alongside the powerful humans battling shoulder to shoulder.

Eventually, the gaze settled on Li Yelai.

In that moment, on the blank mask deep in Li Yelai’s consciousness, the markings of the Blood God and Plague Father Divine Chosen surfaced, two forces slightly fluctuated.

Yet the Master of Green Flames was indifferent, instead laughing: “You’re quite remarkable…”

Then, the gaze lingered on Mr. Shadow within Li Yelai’s consciousness.

In that instant, the two mighty beings looked across the millennia at each other.

“Mimicry… I see…” said the supreme being from afar, emotions indistinguishable.

“You’ve come too late, or perhaps too early,” Mr. Shadow coldly replied.

Their conversation was cryptic and incomprehensible.

And in the next moment, a blood-soaked figure emerged in the fissure, the Governor from the future reversing upstream.

With the plan almost completely destroyed, he still paid a great price, reversing the current, intending to forcibly intervene.

He must act, even if it means death, and complete part of the goal!

He aimed to sink the entire Immortal Palace! To win a sliver of survival for his civilization, for his people!

However, the royal who wielded the sword was faster in pace than he.

In his moment of appearance, immediately severing his head.

“No!” the Governor roared in defiance, his head fell into the river of time.

Yet his headless body still lived, seemingly wanting to fight further. But multiple chains descended, completely pulling his body into the river of time.

The Governor who planned the invasion history perished in the river of time.

Though he fought for the future of his civilization, he completely buried its future, with him and the million elite troops lost, their civilization would face even greater Calamity. Yunling was merely an alliance, absorbing several Forbidden Zones into its coalition.

With his passing… the alliance’s existence was in question.

He had not even considered a successor, for he never imagined he would die…

With his demise, the price of crossing the river of time became apparent, and the powerful Yunling beings who invaded this side of the world started being strangled by chains.

And the royal who wielded the sword stood within the fissure.

For reasons unknown, a dying human strongman on the battlefield saw the figure in a daze.

Struggling, he spoke: “Did our sacrifice… have an effect?”

“Your sacrifice was not in vain, humanity will endure!” She declared firmly, entwined by countless chains: “I swear on the Human Emperor Sword!”

The treasure sword in her hand trembled slightly, seemingly agreeing with this statement.

“That is good then…” The human strongman closed his eyes contentedly.

The next instant, she unsheathed her sword from the fissure, snapping the large branch of the Time Tree in a moment.

With the branch breaking, the speed at which the massive fissure healed drastically increased.

Then, she set her gaze upon Li Yelai, appearing somewhat astonished.

“Calamity… or…” Her surprised voice barely fell.

When the fissure was fully healed.

Everything happened too quickly, so fast that the distant human army couldn’t react.

However, the broken Time Tree, and the completely healed fissure filled the human strongmen with exceptional joy.

The plan had succeeded!

The human Sharp Blade Force destroyed the Time Worm, closed the fissure!

“Charge! Cover them!”

“Hold on a little longer, they will soon succumb to the price!”

“Hahahaha! They are all heroes!”

“Humanity forever!”

The human army roared, launching a fierce attack on the Yunling Army being obliterated, intending to buy time for Li Yelai and others deep in enemy lines.

Actually, when the fissure closed, Yunling Civilization had already completely lost hope.

They launched a desperate charge, only to be ensnared and obliterated by chain after chain appearing suddenly along the charge path.

At that moment, the excruciating wails of millions reverberated throughout the Immortal Palace.

…

Elsewhere in the world, the Book Holder watched the changes in the Book of Destiny, remaining silent for a long time.

In the records of the Book of Destiny, three anchors will appear.

Each anchor will bring forth a powerful future civilization.

This is the script written by the Book of Destiny, which indeed brings great trouble to humanity.

In the script, humans suffer heavy losses facing the assaults of the three civilizations, exerting all efforts to destroy one of the anchors before retreating to the entrance of the Immortal Palace.

Then, the defense line is torn apart.

Retreat continues to the Lava Mine City until Forbidden Zone and Chaos enter the scene.

During this period, many humans and strong figures from the Forbidden Zone perish.

But it also births eighty-three figures endowed with fortune, several of whom will rise to King in the future.

Just sacrificing some humans can give birth to several strong figures with King talent. Isn’t this very worthwhile?

Humans so lack Kings, and just at the cost of eight million lives, can birth so many Kings. Isn’t this a good thing?

The golden era of humanity will be even more brilliant!

If given the choice to the high-ups of Giant City or Forbidden Zone, they too would be tempted!

Alas, just like Disaster Fog No.71 at that time.

This calculation once again encountered unexpected events.

One of the anchors didn’t even manifest a crack before being destroyed violently. That strong civilization didn’t even show its face before being pushed back.

The other two were also obliterated amidst strange variables.

Some who were supposed to die survived, and some supposed to rise as strong figures fell into obscurity again.

This is truly a nightmare…

“This time, it’s an even more intense change than Disaster Fog No.71,” someone said.

“Could it be the Witness? Some Wilderness Rangers have entered.”

“So foolish, why can’t he understand us? We’re the ones working for this world!”

“That traitor… Letting him live was the greatest mistake!”

The Book Holder slowly shook his head: “It’s too late to say anything now. Destiny has shifted again, let’s proceed to the next step. This time, even the Master of Green Flames intervened. The moment He appeared, the future civilization had no hope left. But… Why did He appear? Investigate, use all our power to find out what happened at that time?”

“Yes!”

….

On the other side, inside the Immortal Palace.

After the last Yunling soldier was obliterated.

The Human Army erupted in thunderous cheers.

At the same time, countless people shed tears.

This war, humans won with difficulty but lost too many comrades.

In a certain position.

Political Commissar Zhao Ling, watching the cheering companions, shed tears in pain.

Only to be mercilessly mocked by his comrades.

Then, they stepped forward and patted his shoulder.

“As long as you’re alive, our Sixteenth Legion won’t vanish! Live for us!”

“On this honorable battlefield, dying and resurrecting, fighting alongside you again, is my honor!”

“The Sixteenth Legion, we’re counting on you, Commissar!”

The warriors comforted Zhao Ling, and then, turned to ashes…

On the other side, inside Giant City.

Zhang Zhong, hurriedly sent back to Giant City, watched the crying little girl before him.

Sighing, he said: “Alright, don’t cry, don’t cry.”

“I… I won’t eat… so many things anymore. Please don’t leave, okay!” The little girl grabbed onto Zhang Zhong’s clothes, crying loudly.

“I’m really helpless with children.” Zhang Zhong looked at the snot on his clothes and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

“You’re still too young, stay in Giant City and study first. When you’re older, there’ll be Rangers to teach you.”

“If you don’t want to be a Ranger, that’s okay too. I have a good relation with the Night General Captain of City No.3, he’ll take care of you.”

“Even without Spiritual Talent, he’ll arrange work for you.”

“Don’t cry.”

Before turning to ashes, Zhang Zhong patted the girl’s head.

“We will meet again…”
