Yun felt helpless and desperate. Now N'Zoth, Azshara, and Neptulon had all left, and even the system that had always supported him no longer cared about him. The enemy he faced at this moment was Aman'Thul! He had only taken action twice in the history of the game, and each time was earth-shattering: the first time he instantly killed the terrifying Y'Shaarj; the second time he successfully sealed the dark titan Sargeras. Thinking of this, Yun couldn't help but shudder. Perhaps he would soon become the target of Aman'Thul's third attack. However, Yun racked his brains and couldn't think of any way to resist such a powerful enemy.

With a confused heart, Yun slowly emerged from the water. Looking around, the boundless sea was surging, but this magnificent scene could not stir up any waves in Yun's heart. At this time, he had lost all desires and swam to the shore like a walking corpse.

When he looked up, he saw a pass surrounded by cliffs not far ahead. The pass seemed familiar, but Yun's thoughts were already in a mess, and he had no time to think too much, so he dragged his tired body straight into it.

After entering the pass, Yun found that it seemed quite desolate and deserted. He looked around subconsciously, and the sense of familiarity became stronger and stronger. Unconsciously, Yun came to a huge house and stopped. At this moment, a soldier on guard noticed Yun's figure and walked up to him and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" Hearing the question, Yun came back to his senses a little and answered casually, "I'm just a passerby." After that, he fell into silence again.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle, get out of here quickly!" The soldier waved his hands seriously and shouted to drive Yun away.

Yun paused for a moment, a hint of doubt in his eyes: "But... isn't this a hospital? I remember it very clearly." He couldn't help but ask.

"What hospital? There has always been only a barracks here! Stop talking nonsense and get out of here!" The soldier urged again impatiently, his tone becoming increasingly harsh.

Hearing this, Yun nodded tactfully and replied, "Oh." He said no more, turned around and left quickly.

Looking at the somewhat familiar pass in front of him, memories of the past flooded into his mind like a tide, and Yun Qing couldn't help but recall the scene of himself fighting bloody battles here.

This is Ian's fortress. When Yun first arrived here, he had only cleared one or two dungeons. At that time, he was still at a stage of half-understanding of various skills, but even so, he was still full of ambition and firmly believed that he could make a name for himself in this land.

But now, after years of baptism and countless life and death tests, Yun's state of mind is very different. The sharp edge he once showed was gradually replaced by restraint, replaced by a calm and vicissitudes of life. He shook his head with deep emotion, secretly sighing at the ruthless passage of time.

Yun wandered aimlessly in the fortress. Unconsciously, he walked in front of a statue. The statue was not tall and majestic, but it was carved very finely and realistically, showing a fierce scene of a warrior bravely killing the enemy.

Yun stared at the statue, feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart. At the same time, he was sure that he had never seen it before. After all, this was the place where he arrived at the fortress by carriage, and at that time it was just a large open square, and there was no such statue.

Yun slowly approached the statue, stopped and kept his eyes on it for a long time. He seemed to be lost in thought, his expression a little dazed.

"Do you know him?" A slightly low voice suddenly came from behind. Yun couldn't help but be slightly startled. Then he turned around and saw a tall young man standing quietly beside him, staring at the solemn statue in front of him.

The young man was wearing a slightly worn-out armor, covered with mottled scratches and rust, as if he had been through countless fierce battles. His once handsome face now looked very haggard, and fatigue was clearly visible on his face. His golden hair had not been washed for a long time and was stuck together by dried sweat, forming irregular shapes.

"I don't know him." Yun shook his head, his eyes fell on the young man's tired face, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart.

"Then why are you here?" The young man then shifted his gaze to Yun, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"I was just passing by here and saw this statue so I stopped to admire it." Yun smiled slightly and explained in a relaxed tone.

"He is a true hero!" The young man's expression became solemn. He pointed at the statue with admiration in his eyes.

"Hero? Who isn't a hero?" Yun shrugged disapprovingly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said with a bit of sarcasm.

Hearing Yun's words, the young man's face instantly darkened. He frowned, raised his voice and retorted: "No! He is the hero! Back then, the enemy came like a tide, and it was he who stood up and led everyone to fight bravely. In the end, he resolutely gave up the opportunity to retreat, delayed the main force of the enemy, and bought precious time for the reinforcements arriving from the rear. It can be said that without his heroic sacrifice, this fortress would have fallen into the hands of the enemy long ago. He deserves to be a hero in our hearts!" When he spoke of the emotional part, the young man's eyes were slightly red, and his voice trembled unconsciously.

"Oh? Is he alone?" Yun raised his eyebrows with interest, his eyes fixed on the young man in front of him. He knew very well that the person represented by this statue was of great significance to this young man, but at this moment, Yun deliberately wanted to tease him.

The young man's face tightened and he was about to retort angrily, but when he heard Yun's next words, he swallowed back the anger that was about to come out of his mouth.

"This... of course not!" the young man replied through gritted teeth.

Seeing this, Yun smiled slightly and continued to ask, "So those people he brought with him have already retreated? He was left here alone?"

"Of course not!" The young man couldn't help but raise his voice, "They are all well-deserved heroes!"

"Oh? Really?" Yun raised his lips slightly, looking at the young man with a hint of teasing, "If that's the case, you have been thinking about him. What about the others? They also have their own families, but why did they die so quietly and no one knew about it?"

Yun's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the young man's heart hard. For a moment, the young man didn't know how to respond. He just trembled his lips and muttered to himself: "They...they..."

Seeing the young man like this, Yun did not give up, but pressed on, asking: "Are they the only ones who made sacrifices? What about others? When the Naga tribe broke through this place, how many brave and fearless warriors fell on this land? Don't those people deserve to be called heroes? And those who retreated to the rear to build a second line of defense, can their contributions be easily ignored? And those doctors and civilians who worked tirelessly from all directions to support, aren't they heroes?"

"They...they...how do you know so clearly?" The young man was a little confused at first, but then he realized something was wrong and looked at Yun with vigilance.

"Tie Edamon," Yun said with a smile.

"Who are you?" Tieu suddenly drew out his sword and put it on Yun's neck, saying with a vigilant look on his face.

"We haven't seen each other for so many years, and this is how you treat your old friend?" Yun smiled as if he didn't see the sword.

"Friend? Who are you?" Tieu thought for a moment and still stared at Yun.

"Have I changed so much?" Yun said with some self-mockery.

"Tell me who you are quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless." Tieu felt that there was no energy fluctuation on Yun's body. Logically, he should be worse than him, but Yun's expression made him a little worried.

"You are so ungrateful. If I hadn't led the Naga away back then, would you still be like this?" Yun said without any concern.

"You led away...you are...Yun?" Tieer widened his eyes with a look of disbelief.

"Have I really changed that much?" Yun continued.

"Are you really Yun?" Tieu looked at Yun in disbelief.

"Can you take me for a visit?" Yun said with a smile.

Tieu put down his sword and looked for a long time before he realized that it was indeed a cloud.

"Okay... okay..." Tie'er's brain froze for a while, and he mechanically took Yun to a tavern nearby.

When they arrived at the pub, the waiter brought two large glasses of wine directly. Yun felt a little strange, but he picked them up and started drinking. It tasted like cheap beer, but Yun swallowed it anyway. This feeling made Yun feel much more comfortable.

"How come you are here?" Thie'e finally recovered from his shock. He stared at the figure who suddenly appeared in front of him with wide eyes and a look of disbelief.

"Why can't I be here? I just have nothing to do, so I just want to walk around." Yun answered casually. As he spoke, he raised the wine glass in his hand and took a big gulp of wine. The slightly sour wine slid down his throat, making Yun feel like he had found the taste of life again.

Tieer opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know how to describe Yun at the moment. After all, according to common sense, with Yun's current identity and status, he really shouldn't appear in such a place.

"No matter what I have become, I am still a human being! I also have friends and have been young." Yun said calmly, as if he had seen through what was in Thiae's mind. Then, he drank the wine in the glass again, and with every sip of wine, the deep fear of Aman'thul seemed to gradually dissipate.

"Ah... I didn't expect you could drink this kind of wine." Seeing this, Tieu hesitated for a moment, then picked up the wine glass and took a big sip, exclaiming in amazement.

"Huh, why can't I drink? You are the second young master of the Damon family. Even you can drink, so am I not as good as you? Do I have an extra head than you?" Yun raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and continued to tease Tieer.

"Haha, this is called seaweed wine, a specialty here. It's in the sea area in front, there is lush blue seaweed growing, and only here on the entire coast can you find this kind of blue seaweed. This is the wine brewed with this blue seaweed. When I drink this wine, I can remember how helpless I was when facing the Naga. This motivates me to train harder. I want to protect my family." Tieer took another sip.

"Protect your family?" Yun was a little surprised.

"Everyone in the Damon family is my family. They choose to work on the Damon family's land, so I have an obligation to protect them." Tieu took another sip of wine.

"But your ability..." Yun said to Tieu, somewhat shocked.

"I can exercise my abilities, but I cannot shrink my heart. This is my mission, which was determined when I was born." It is rare for Thieu to say so much.

"Isn't this fate? Don't you think this is a kind of shackle? Haven't you ever thought about breaking free from it?" Yun was a little surprised.

"Fate? Whatever you do is not fate? Protecting them is fate, dying on the battlefield is fate, and living a life of idleness and waiting for death is also fate. Fate is fate. It doesn't mean you can blame it on fate if you do something you don't want to do. I know you are in a high position now, and sometimes you do things that are bound to make you feel uncomfortable, but that is your fate, a fate you cannot escape. Don't blame it on fate. Those are all excuses you make for yourself." Tieu said, looking at Yun who was obviously worried.

"Fate is also destiny?" Yun suddenly understood.

"What you have walked is your fate. No matter what happens, it is your own doing. No matter what happens, as long as you move forward, you will not go wrong." Tieu took another big sip.

"Just move forward, why think so much? Just don't care who did it." Yun also became interested and shouted loudly.

"Who cares who he is? Just do it." Thieu also replied.

This statement immediately received a response from everyone in the tavern.

"Fuck him! Fuck him! Fuck him!" Waves of shouts rang out in the tavern. Yun was also infected and started shouting too. His fear of Aman'thul had completely disappeared.

"How is it? Are you feeling better?" Tieu said while hugging Yun's shoulders.

"Well, fuck him." Yun said viciously.

"Yes, you are the strongest person in the continent, what are you afraid of? Go and fight him." Tieer was also infected and said loudly.

"Okay, I'll go and beat him, it's no big deal." Yun said loudly.

"Who are you going to kill?" Thieu asked casually.

"Aman'thul," Yun replied.

"Amansur? Never heard of it." Thieu said indifferently.

"Well, just an old guy, the strongest Titan in the universe." Yun said lightly.

Thiae smiled and was about to say something, but his smile suddenly froze and he looked at Yun in disbelief.
