Chapter 487: Chapter 285: The Sun and Moon High in the Sky, the Prince Patrols the Heavens!_2
Otherwise, once discovered, severe punishment is inevitable.
"So, the Blood God Pope is hiding somewhere in the mountains outside of Daxuan City?"
Seeing the address on the intelligence, Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised.
Daxuan City is only a few thousand kilometers away from Wuyou City, and with his current power, he could reach it in a few breaths.
And because Lu Yuan paid promptly, he was kindly reminded by the other party.
"Here’s a piece of advice: unless you’re desperately poor or have a vendetta, it’s best not to target those Evil God Cultists."
"They have all been blessed by the Outer Realm Evil God. Ordinary simulators who acquire their items not only can’t use them but also risk being polluted and corrupted."
"Moreover, if you recklessly approach them, you might even attract the attention of the Outer Realm Evil God."
To many King-Sealing Giants, these Evil God Cultists are like a hot potato.
Killing the Evil God’s subordinates brings no benefit and only stirs up trouble.
Thus, as long as the Evil God Cult doesn’t operate on their territory, they’d turn a blind eye and avoid meddling.
Only the Night Watch Department would bother with such thankless tasks.
"Thank you, elder, for the reminder. I will definitely act cautiously."
Lu Yuan hasn’t changed his mind.
Other King-Sealing Giants avoid Evil God Cultists, fearing to get entangled in cause and effect.
But Lu Yuan doesn’t care.
The Scripture of Celestial Prison Suppression he cultivates is the First Technique of the Ten Thousand Worlds.
Cause and effect do not attach, reincarnation cannot touch.
No beginning, no end, only I am eternal.
Any Evil God’s subordinate, any fanatic follower who dares to oppose him, will all be suppressed and killed!
The transaction is over.
To be on the safe side, Lu Yuan also purchased several reconnaissance puppets in the mall.
After completing all this.
He exited the Simulator Forum without delay, ready to set off for Daxuan City immediately.
At this time, it was already deep into the night, and the outside world was engulfed in endless darkness.
Wuyou City, shrouded by the Orbit Array, was bustling with people, full of peace and joy, appearing as a haven on earth.
"Stay in the city; I have something to do outside. I’ll be back soon."
Lu Yuan instructed briefly, then transformed into a ray of light, vanishing from Wuxin and Lucia’s sight.
He traveled extremely fast, capable of crossing thousands of kilometers in an instant.
As for the black mist, considered a nightmare to ordinary people, it posed no threat to him.
With just the faint golden glow emanating from Lu Yuan, he could dispel all darkness, keeping it at bay!
In fact.
From a certain perspective, the threat posed by these black mists is less than the Dark Origin of the Profound Realm.
After all, the Main World is guarded by the Will of the Heavens, no matter how harsh the environment, it can never be too dire.
However, as countless planes were devoured by darkness, the black mist in the Main World has been gradually strengthening.
If a few months ago, ordinary people could physically resist the black mist for a while after nightfall.
Now.
Any ordinary person leaving the protection of the Orbit Array is doomed either to die or be injured.
Even many Tier One Simulators find it difficult to ensure their own safety against the black mist!
"The Will of the Heavens is correct, darkness is spreading, and our time is running out."
Lu Yuan felt a bit heavy-hearted.
With a sweep of his divine thought, he found that outside Wuyou City.
Many small towns were ten rooms empty out of ten, all turned into desolate Cities of Death.
Now, within a thousand-mile radius.
Only Wuyou City and Daxuan City remained as human settlements!
And the situation in Daxuan City was also grim.
As the Blood God Pope was on the brink of falling, many powerful dark creatures gathered here like sharks scenting blood.
This caused the defense pressure on Daxuan City to rise dramatically, with the city in constant danger of being breached and people perishing.
Many simulators and the wealthy and powerful class had already fled to the Prefecture City, guarded by a Town General.
Leaving only some low-level simulators and over a million ordinary citizens to await their doom in the city.
The dark creatures, having smelled the scent of food, surrounded the city from all directions, ready to throw a grand feast!
They gathered to form a Dark Tide, tirelessly assaulting the Orbit Array of Daxuan City.
Under the assault of the Dark Tide.
The already dim guardian barrier became increasingly precarious, developing numerous cracks.
The within-city simulators could only exhaust every effort, sparing no cost in striving to maintain the array’s operation.
"Where is the Lord City Lord?"
"Damn it! Why is there a Fiery Sun level dark creature here?"
"Reinforcements! We need reinforcements and supplies!"
"It’s useless, stop resisting, the Lord City Lord has secretly headed to the Prefecture City, we’ve all been abandoned!"
A simulator laughed bitterly, slumping to the ground, eyes filled with despair.
The city’s powerful simulators had all left, leaving only the small fry like them.
How long could they hold against a Fiery Sun level dark creature?
Half an hour?
Two hours?
Even if they survived the night, so what?
Without backup and supplies.
They saw no reason or hope to continue fighting.
Going to the Prefecture City for refuge was even more impossible, lacking connections and background, they couldn’t even enter the gates.
Let alone fleeing the city, which would spell death for their entire clan.
"Maybe we can go to Wuyou City."
"No, Wuyou City is thousands of kilometers away, it’s too late."
"Forget it, I’m tired, let destruction come early."
Despair and panic spread among the crowd, with more and more simulators giving up the struggle and resistance.
Some even resorted to destruction, actively breaking the Orbit Array, letting Daxuan City lay bare before the Dark Tide.
Simulators unwilling to wait for death fled the battlefield, seeking their own paths.
All the ordinary people with sallow skin and bony frames stepped out of hiding, standing numbly in the streets, quietly awaiting death.
Death is indeed terrifying.
But more terrifying is a life worse than death, devoid of any hope.
Many had lived in this earthly purgatory since birth, having had enough of everything.
Thus, when death finally descended.
They showed no fear but rather a calm appearance, with even a slight sense of relief.
Lu Yuan felt unspeakable heaviness and complexity witnessing this scene.
When he recalled the Cities of Death that he saw along the way, it became increasingly terrifying to think about it.
Similar scenes likely played out countless times in various places.
Compared to the fiefdoms and major cities under the Royal Blood Families, with populations in the hundreds of millions, these peripheral towns seemed insignificant.
Even if they perished.
It would merely be another City of Death, another casualty statistic.
Moreover, in this end times where life is trivial.
The vast majority of ordinary people died silently, unnoticed by anyone.
"Boom!"
A giant humanoid dark creature, like a colossus, emerged from the depths of the black mist.
Standing over a hundred meters tall, its eyes glowed with a bloody light, towering over all the populace and simulators inside Daxuan City.
Eyes cold and indifferent, as if gazing upon its food!
Amidst all the despairing gazes.
The dark creature’s face twisted in a vicious grin, suddenly extending a giant hand to grasp the citizens within the city.
But in the next instant.
An extremely radiant and brilliant divine light burst forth from afar, illuminating all of Daxuan City as if it were daylight.
And that seemingly invincible dark creature, along with all the black mist, was severely damaged, letting out a series of shrill wails.
Immediately after.
Strands of black smoke rose from their skin’s surface, their bodies melting away like spring snow under the fierce sun in an instant.
A Dark Tide was thus utterly eliminated!
Then a young man stepped across the sky, appearing in everyone’s sight.
Behind him, a bright moon and a Fiery Sun rose, surrounded by countless stars, making him appear like a god.
Sun and moon high above, standing as a king patrolling the heavens!
This is the true combat power of a Town General!
