I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

How are you doing?

Having just finished the battle, Qin Tianhai came to Mo Sheng's side, glancing at the Watchers' ranks, the sheer number of which filled him with despair.

Then look at Yanshan. The battle there has been going on for far too long.

It turned out that the remaining two Watchers realized that Yan Shan's fighting strength would not last long. They changed their mind about injuring Yan Shan and chose to avoid confrontation and wear him down.

Their method was somewhat effective; everyone else had finished their battles, and they had only lost two men so far, allowing them to continue fighting.

"That's enough for you guys. Did you really think you could hide forever?"

Yan Shan suddenly said coldly.

He has already locked onto them through detection and deduction, so no matter how they try to hide, it's useless now.

Many of the scales on the mountain unicorn's body were torn off, revealing the bulging, muscular muscles beneath. However, blood was seeping from these muscles, demonstrating just how brutal the battle had been.

The two guardians at the Void Realm actually complemented each other's abilities, burning their bodies and souls to unleash an attack comparable to a full-force strike at the Sequence Level, instantly shattering its scales and causing it considerable damage.

Its massive body crashed into the void beside it, creating a large hole. The space became chaotic, and two Watchers fell out from somewhere, appearing in the mountain qilin's field of vision.

"Oops!"

They were terrified, for they saw a claw shimmering with five colors slash down, leaving a dark spatial rift in its wake, and in an instant it grabbed their heads.

With a "crack," they followed in the footsteps of the others, falling completely silent, their deaths leaving not even ashes.

At the same time, the Five Elements Claws lost all their luster and shrank rapidly. The mountain qilin, which was more than two hundred meters tall, disappeared, and in its place appeared a towering figure standing in the wilderness, covered in blood.

"They won, they won... The Marshal won!"

The people cheered. Regardless of the situation elsewhere, the marshal always radiated a light that set him apart from others, illuminating the path ahead for everyone.

Unfortunately, humanity ultimately lost.

It wasn't that they weren't strong enough, but rather that the enemy had too many powerful individuals, overwhelming them with sheer numbers.

Now that things have come to this, they have no choice but to accept this humiliating and helpless outcome.

"Um?!"

"Look, the Marshal seems to have something to say!"

Everyone's attention turned to Yan Shan again. He tilted his head back, his lips, stained with dried blood, moved slowly a few times, his throat bobbing as he uttered a slightly hoarse declaration:

"next."

The sound wasn't loud, but it instantly resonated throughout the entire venue, making everyone's hearts tighten and their blood surge.

"...Let me do it."

Judging from appearances, Yan Shan was undoubtedly out of oil. Of the remaining twelve watchmen, one decided to go up and test him.

Without the usual question of whether it was a life-or-death battle, the Watcher simply concealed himself and pierced through from a tricky angle.

Knowing that it would be difficult to remain stealthy once he entered within a dozen meters of Yanshan, the Watcher did not hesitate and revealed his true form, his body engulfed in golden flames, unleashing the most powerful attack of his life.

However, Yan Shan did not make any move.

"Senior Yan Shan!" Mo Sheng couldn't help but exclaim.

She could clearly sense that there was no energy fluctuation on Yan Shan's body. He was clearly exhausted, yet he was still fighting on with all his might.

To everyone's astonishment, the opponent's blade was already close to Yan Shan, and people could even see it sever several strands of Yan Shan's hair. Time seemed to slow down instantly.

puff--

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh.

"?!"

The blade did indeed pierce through the scales' defenses and penetrate into the flesh.

Yan Shan's palm was held horizontally in front of him, and the blade pierced through it. The killing intent surged wildly, and the scales on Yan Shan's right arm all the way to his elbow shattered, bursting out a cloud of blood mist.

Did it really, really cause him harm?

He's only at the Qi Refining Realm! And his strength is far less than before, yet he actually broke through their defenses!?

The remaining Watchers' eyes gleamed with a shrewdness as they made some kind of plan.

The Watcher's first instinct was to press his advantage, but when he tried to pull out his sword, the blade stuck in Yan Shan's wrist and he couldn't get it out.

Yan Shan's muscles were bulging and veins were standing out. The blade rubbed against his bones, making a grinding sound that made people's teeth ache.

This was excruciating pain, yet Yan Shan didn't even twitch his lips. His expression was solemn and dignified, as if he had seen life and death many times. His other hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the Watcher's shoulder. Then, with a forceful push from his right hand, his bones shattered the blade, and he grabbed the Watcher as well. In an instant, the muscles in his arm grew larger.

sizzle-

Like tearing a rag, the watcher's body was ripped in two, and he died instantly!

Yan Shan closed his eyes. "Next."

"..."

Another watcher stepped forward and walked straight to within ten meters of Yan Shan, which was too close.

Yan Shan nodded slightly, and the battle began.

Swah——

The Watcher's position at this distance was clearly intentional, aimed at inflicting damage on Yan Shan in an instant!

Yan Shan's reaction time seemed to be a bit slow, and he was unable to block with his hand. The blade pierced his chest, and blood splattered.

Yan Shan grabbed the Watcher's wrist with his heavy hand, twisted his body forcefully, breaking off the blade. A section of the blade remained in the Watcher's body. Then, with brute force, he broke off the hand holding the knife and plunged it into the Watcher's own heart.

"Well......"

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, too fast to react. The Watcher's heart nearly burst open, his eyes filled with questioning and reverence.

"Next......"

"Senior Yan Shan..." Mo Sheng's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was tinged with sobs.

People who watched it were moved to tears; they felt a deep, heart-wrenching pain.

The marshal spent his entire life in battle, and even his son died young in the end times. Now, all alone, even though his life is nearing its end, he drags his frail body and continues to fight in a way that is almost self-destructive, just to win the hope of victory.

Another watchman stepped forward, his eyes filled with deep admiration; even they were impressed by Yan Shan's spirit.

Looking at the blood-stained figure before him, he asked with difficulty, "I want to know, what is it that keeps you going?"

Yan Shan's lips moved a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but then he changed his words at the last minute: "You will find out."

Having said that, the battle began. Yan Shan mustered the last bit of strength he had recovered from the two battles, roared to the sky, as if he had broken through time and space from ancient times, his whole body was dazzling, as if endless flames were burning, and he instantly engulfed the place.

As smoke billowed everywhere, Yan Shan's strong and powerful hands drooped limply, unable to hold on any longer.

"......"

After a long silence, the heart-stirring declaration finally came.

"Next......"

The crowd erupted in cheers.

"Good heavens! Who else can step forward to fight in place of the Marshal?"

"How unfair is this? So many people are fighting against one marshal, and even if they win, they will be infamous for eternity!"

People are saddened and curse the Odyssey, but all human suffering is essentially anger at one's own powerlessness.

They hated themselves for being so useless, unable to help, only able to watch helplessly as the marshal fought alone, his blood staining the sky in the end.

If no one were to replace him, people believed that the marshal would likely choose to die here in battle!

Tap tap...

Footsteps drifted leisurely from afar.

The haze was as red as blood, and the clouds rolled and swirled, stretching out a vast and desolate sea of ​​dark clouds against the desolate horizon.

Upon seeing this familiar scene, people couldn't help but burst into tears, their clothes soaked with tears, and a surge of sorrow welled up in their hearts.

At the edge of the horizon, two figures, supporting each other, stood out with their unparalleled beauty, dispelling the despair in people's hearts and bringing the dawn of victory.

Upon seeing the two people, Mo Sheng gasped in surprise, covering her mouth with her hand. Her eyes held shock, ecstasy, and boundless hope...

They're back!

Chapter 123 Killing the Enemy

At the edge of the horizon, two graceful figures, supporting each other, slowly approached. Although their steps were slow, with each step they took, a glimmer of hope shone through.

"We have not been defeated! There are still those who can fight!"

"Finally, the marshal no longer has to fight alone; there is someone who can take his place!"

"......"

People were moved to tears. After the extreme grief, this hard-won hope supported the backbone of the Chinese people and held up a new sky.

Upon seeing the figure with flowing silver hair, Mo Sheng could no longer control her emotions. Overwhelmed with joy, she burst into tears and nearly collapsed to the ground, her lips trembling as she murmured, "Mu Mu... I knew you wouldn't die so easily..."

When Mo Sheng learned that the Dawn had lost contact, she almost considered Mu Mu dead in her heart. After all, it was in the vast universe, and even if she knew that Mu Mu was still alive, there was no way to carry out a rescue.
