Doomsday Code

Chapter 978 Emerging from the Abyss

Looking at the soul-like object in his hand, Chen Cheng took a deep breath and then swallowed it.

There was no other way; Chen Cheng couldn't find a suitable container to contain him, so he had to use his own body as a container, otherwise this soul-like thing would immediately disintegrate.

When Gust came to Chen Cheng, he had no more tears left to shed. His life had been given to him by Kui Niu, so from now on he would take Kui Niu's place and fulfill his duties and life.

After listening to Gust's explanation, Chen Cheng did not rush to tell him that the bull might be able to be resurrected.

Firstly, this matter is still just Chen Cheng's own idea, and many aspects are not yet mature.

The second reason is that what keeps Gusteau alive is to take Quein's place and fulfill his life's obligations and destiny.

He wanted to live on in place of the bull, to become the continuation of the bull's life.

Otherwise, given what he's been through, he would have already suffered a mental breakdown and gone insane.

Moreover, there is the more realistic pressure from other kingdoms. The death of Kui Niu is undoubtedly a major blow to Chen Cheng's restoration group, and if Gust can gain Gust's support, it would be a way to make up for it.

Therefore, both for public and private reasons, Chen Cheng would not refuse Gust's request.

"From now on, you must take good care of his tribe, just like Kui Niu."

When Chen Cheng thought of the Minotaur race, he felt a mix of emotions.

He hadn't figured out how to explain things to the Kui Niu tribe when he got back.

It was Chen Cheng who insisted on going beyond the Great Wall. Now that he has led his men out, and they have returned without even a complete corpse, all the responsibility lies with Chen Cheng.

"His Majesty."

Gust knelt on one knee and bowed to Chen Cheng.

At this moment, he took the place of Kui Niu, fulfilling the promise Kui Niu made to Chen Cheng to protect him.

At this moment, Ge Long spoke up:

"Stop arguing here and let's leave first. Now that the abyss problem is solved, the outside world will probably be in turmoil. If we don't take this opportunity to leave, we might get trapped in this little world."

Ge Long's words also served as a reminder to Chen Cheng and the others, as they had come to this new world through a spatial rift in the abyss.

Now that Shen Zhi Nian is completely gone, those spatial rifts will probably begin to heal.

Without those spatial rifts, if they want to go back, they'll probably have to wait for this world to reconnect with the present world, and the time that will take is an unknown quantity.

Meanwhile, the Great Wall is currently under military pressure from the five kingdoms. His real purpose in going beyond the Great Wall is to first resolve the threat posed by the orcs to the Great Wall, and then contend with the five kingdoms in the north.

At this moment, the Great Wall Army needed them, and he couldn't be trapped here for too long.

Chen Cheng activated his administrator privileges and inspected the ruins. However, reality was harsh; these ruins were part of a system that complemented the new world outside, and now only these array machines remained.

There were some special mechanical puppets before, but unfortunately they were all destroyed.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything good from here, Chen Cheng reset the system to automatic operation, summoned a spatial vortex that would allow them to leave, and then logged out of the administrator account.

After crossing the spatial vortex, everyone found themselves on a precipice.

However, the scenery here is no longer the forest cliffs where they were before, but a place where extreme cold and extreme heat coexist.

Snowflakes fell from the sky, while lava flowed beneath the cliffs.

Just when Noah and his companions thought their world had suffered a major catastrophe, Gust immediately recognized that this was the northernmost point of the world.

The cliff they stood on was not a mountain cliff at all, but the edge of an abyss.

However, the abyss was no longer an endless darkness; it was now a massive geological fault line, with flowing lava visible below.

This is enough to show that the abyss has truly disappeared, and the chaotic space that was before has finally calmed down.

The mission that the orcs had upheld for thousands of years had finally come to an end.

Gust knelt on the precipice, watching the snowflakes fall and the lava churn, and he burst into hearty laughter.

But as he laughed, he started to cry.

Chen Cheng did not go forward to comfort him, but waited for him quietly.

Upon seeing the outside world, Ge Long revealed her dragon form, soaring through the sky and letting out a high-pitched dragon roar.

She then landed in front of Chen Cheng, looked at him, and said:

"Don't forget our promise. If you come up with a solution, come to Dragon Island. I'll be waiting for you there."

Without giving Chen Cheng a chance to remind him, Ge Long flapped its wings and soared into the sky, flying south like a gust of wind.

Watching Ge Long disappear into the distance, Chen Cheng wanted to tell her to wait, because she couldn't fly over the Great Wall.

Seeing that she had disappeared, Chen Cheng stopped talking and let her experience some setbacks.

However, the dragon didn't fly very far before flying back directly.

Chen Cheng wanted to ask her why she had returned, but Ge Long spoke first:

"Watch out, a very strong human is coming."

Not long after she finished speaking, Chen Cheng saw a sword flying over from the horizon.

When Ge Long saw the sword, he immediately became wary.

Upon seeing the sword, Chen Cheng smiled and called out:

"General Ye Rong."

As Chen Cheng finished speaking, the sword in the sky transformed into a beam of light and landed in front of Chen Cheng. It was none other than Ye Rong, the current commander of the Great Wall Army.

"His Majesty."

Golong never expected that such a powerful human would be Chen Cheng's subject. It seems that the empire that guy Lyca created over the past thousand years has really made a name for itself.

Dragons are not interested in domination; they are more interested in becoming powerful.

"Ye Rong, what brings you here? How is the army doing now? Have the five kingdoms made any unusual moves?"

When Ye Rong heard Chen Cheng's question, he recounted everything that had happened after Chen Cheng left the border.

Then Ye Rong asked again:

"Your Majesty, where is that fool Kui Niu? Why haven't I seen him? Is he trapped? I'll go and rescue him right away."

He had sensed it when Chen Cheng used the small wooden sword he had given him, so when he didn't see Kui Niu, he assumed that Chen Cheng and his group had encountered a powerful enemy and that Kui Niu had chosen to stay behind to cover their retreat.

Even now, Ye Rong never imagined that Kui Niu would die like this.

This cannot be said to be because he was arrogant. Rather, it is because to kill a legendary-level person, unless there is an absolute crushing of power, or if they are of the same level, it would require several legendary-level people to join forces.

The pinnacle of power in this world is the legendary level, and gods only exist in legends, so Ye Rong never expected that Kui Niu would die like this.
