Capítulo 1199: Chapter 591: The Attack! (Part 2)

If it were just a blood sacrifice, the Ye Boshous would not have been so shocked. They have fought the Chaos Faction before and witnessed many chaotic blood sacrifice rituals.

But now among those sacrifices, there are the distinctly characteristic Bloodsuckers and many Chaos believers.

“Are those Chaos believers… insane? They are so ruthless even towards their own people?” The leader of the Ye Boshou looked at the mass of corpses, somewhat incredulous.

When they sensed the malicious virus brewing on those corpses,

they directly set the ruins on fire.

Soon, Li Ye, who had returned to the fortress outside the ‘point’, received this news.

“Is it Yu Mian and the others? Emperor’s Fall found Yu Mian but also performed a blood sacrifice on many Chaos believers.” Li Ye looked at this information, and his heart sank.

“He truly is a complete madman!”

Li Ye carefully reviewed the intelligence, finding no Chaos Holy Artifact, no Chaos Demon General…

From this, it could be analyzed that ‘Emperor’s Fall’ actively found Yu Mian and those Chaos believers, but Yu Mian refused ‘Emperor’s Fall’ orders.

‘Emperor’s Fall’ had no hesitation, wielded his blade, and slaughtered a large number of Chaos believers, not only seizing the Chaos Holy Artifact but also using those Chaos believers as sacrifices for a blood sacrifice.

Yu Mian might have already died in battle, or perhaps fled with his team.

After all, ‘Emperor’s Fall’ also didn’t want to be held up, worried about being discovered and entangled by the Second Generation Champions.

Damn, too insane!

“Is this what I’ve become after being corrupted by Chaos?” Li Ye furrowed his brow.

As a result, Emperor’s Fall is likely to continue getting stronger… Li Ye instead hopes he becomes too aggressive and distorts into a Chaos Egg.

In fact, when Yan Shuang Dominator and others were escorted back to the fortress outside the ‘point’ by the receiving troops,

the existence of ‘Emperor’s Fall’ was no longer a secret.

A Champion twisted into a Chaos Chosen was extremely shocking to the humans, casting a complex look at Li Ye.

“The corrupted you are no longer you.” Cheese said, “That is truly the Three Gods’ Chosen. Cruel and belligerent, spreading plague and corruption, indulging every desire… even becoming a Lust Demon is possible.”

“We must prioritize taking him down. He may already have acquired the Chaos Holy Artifact… If given the opportunity, he will certainly summon the projection of Chaos Great Power.” Li Ye said after contemplating, “The only thing on our side that can deal with the Chaos Holy Artifact is the Old Mad King’s Biomimetic Tear Drop.”

“But if you use the Biomimetic Tear Drop to deal with the Chaos Holy Artifact, you’re not assured to deal with Emperor’s Fall,” Little Mad King said. “In a one-on-one, you’re not at an advantage. If he appears, you need to take me with you. Of course, the more you bring, the better. Try to arrange a gang up environment.”

“If he doesn’t have curse resistance, I can suppress him.” Doll said.

Having been promoted to Overlord, Doll’s strength is the top tier among Overlords.

If Emperor’s Fall has no curse resistance, then the outcome would be Doll suppressing him.

“Still too passive… And the Horror Demons definitely won’t allow us to gang up on him.”

Li Ye pondered and then asked, “How is the Heavenly Soldier Furnace?”

Cheese responded, “No problem, the warriors heroically guarded it… It’s already in operation, continuously producing Imitative Heavenly Soldiers. As soon as the number of Heavenly Soldiers increases, the situation will improve.”

“That’s all we can do…” Li Ye asked, “Have the means to dissolve the Abyss Dark Side been found?”

“Yes, but it’s difficult to achieve.” Cheese shook his head. “Actually, the tricolor moon we see at night is a part of the Abyss Dark Side. To dissolve the space distortion of the Abyss Dark Side, operations must be conducted at three specific locations within three layers of space simultaneously.”

“And up to now, we still cannot establish contact with the first time, although we did send one-way information through Taboo Items, they seem unable to cooperate with us to achieve this.”

“Moreover, we don’t know whether the Abyss Dark Side will be randomly shifted again after dissolving. Overall, the Abyss Dark Side segmented the battlefield and the enemy’s strength. As long as we hold the ‘point’, we have the initiative. No one knows now whether dissolving the dark side will be good or bad.”

Currently, the Heavenly Soldier Furnace is placed within the fortress outside the ‘point’, with hundreds of Spiritual Ability Users refining Heavenly Soldiers. A large number of elites gather here, ensuring the safety of the furnace.

Meanwhile, because the ‘point’ is crucial, Li Ye and others must stay here.

This makes the defense of the point very strong.

Doll, Little Mad King, Li Ye, and the still recuperating Yan Shuang Dominator.

There are four Overlord-level guards in total.

Actually, because of the isolation of the ‘point’ and the death of the Rakshasa King,

it is difficult for the Horror Demons to intervene on the third layer unless they are directly born within the third layer.

The original plan of humans was to occupy the ‘point’, then concentrate forces to clear the Fear Demons on the third layer.

Once the third layer’s space is deemed relatively safe, it would be repaired as a logistical hinterland.

By then, as long as the ‘point’ is in the hands of humans, the third layer can better shelter civilians, reducing the pressure on the shelters, and restarting all factories in a relatively safe environment. Support the frontline with weapons, ammunition, and even war vehicles.

This would be the formula for human victory, however, with the appearance of Emperor’s Fall on the third layer, everything fell apart.

Each shelter could only passively strengthen their defenses in response to the potential arrival of the Three Gods’ Chosen!

Meanwhile on the east front of the second layer.

The Mountain City Lord, Liu Bo, and Zhen Shan, the three high officials of the Giant City.

After a meeting, they all had bruised noses and swollen faces, which terrified the defenders, thinking an assassin had infiltrated the fortress.

In fact, the City Lord and Liu Bo got into a fight over the Chaos Contract, while Zhen Shan was caught in the middle trying to break them up.

But ultimately, the Mountain City Lord still compromised, agreeing to this crazy plan.

After all, the Champion had agreed, even signed the Chaos Contract in a cut-first-talk-later manner, leaving him with no other choice.

“What now? The real Emperor’s Fall has appeared…” The Mountain City Lord looked coldly at Liu Bo. “Did you consider this situation?”

“No. But at least Emperor’s Fall is locked on the third layer. And our contract is spreading in the second layer. As long as he doesn’t breach the point, he can’t affect our plans.” Liu Bo said, “The Champion, Doll, and that Little Mad King are all stationed there. Even with the assistance of the Second Generation Champion, it’s hard for Emperor’s Fall to come to the second layer.”

“But this also immobilizes the Champion and others. In the original plan, the Champion was supposed to come to the second layer to deal with the Nightmare King.” The Mountain City Lord frowned. “The Nightmare King’s next attack is very likely to be here. If our line of defense falters, the Beastman Army will overrun the entire second layer in an instant!”

“Indeed, the coordination between the Nightmare King and the Beastman Army is terrifying. But we are not without resources to resist. The number of civilians on our defense line has repeatedly decreased. With the advent of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers, the difficulty of consuming us is also significant.”

“Then, where will the Nightmare attack first?” The Mountain City Lord looked at the map in front of him and fell into thought.

…

Amid human concerns, three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, neither Nightmare nor Emperor’s Fall appeared.

This brought relief to the human side, yet also made them tense. So passive…

As the fourth day dawned, with the skies gradually darkening, the fortress outside the point remained brightly lit.

Humans acquired the Coordinated Pulse Array Technique and conducted numerous experiments.

If humans can fully master this technology and set up a few Coordinated Pulse Array Techniques at each shelter, their defenses will be impregnable.

As night fell, the warriors took turns standing guard.

Zhao Xiao was one of them.

As a Five Senses Spiritual Ability User, he was responsible for guarding a fortress line.

“I wonder if my little sister has gone back?” Zhao Xiao looked up at the eerie night sky, contemplating.

He felt a deep remorse towards Zhao Lin, all because of his blindness… causing her…

Racked with guilt, Zhao Xiao punched his own thigh.

The intense pain sobered him a bit. But soon, he found a strong drowsiness coming over him.

He bit down on his tongue without hesitation, trying to wake himself up, and shouted.

“Something’s wrong, there’s something going on!”

However, few responded.

Some staggered out of their rooms, only to quickly fall asleep on the ground.

Zhao Xiao was both shocked and angry because he noticed his own eyelids were involuntarily drooping.

A strong lethargy began to spread.

The pain of biting his tongue couldn’t fend off this weariness.

He decisively stabbed himself in the thigh, the sharp pain bringing him some clarity.

“Enemy attack!”
