Chapter 364: Chapter 288 No Chance to Start Over_1

"Senior, should we stop that person?" a native warrior asked before leaving; the person he referred to was Zheng Yichen.

"Normally, we would definitely stop him, but now we can’t." The elder shook his head. They were now in a situation where a single move could affect the whole situation. How could they possibly stop Zheng Yichen?

It would be a blessing if that man didn’t cause them any trouble.

Even according to their observations, although Zheng Yichen was currently slaughtering, those he dealt with were all driven mad. It was better to eliminate those who had gone insane rather than let them run amok; even if this would result in many deaths, fewer people would be affected later on.

However, through his observation, the elder noticed that Zheng Yichen seemed to be accumulating something while he killed. Before there had been no suitable reason for such actions, but now there was, and his movements were especially decisive. Judging by his methods, he was like an Evil Fiend that slaughtered life to obtain blood.

Yet in terms of conduct, Zheng Yichen was much more reserved compared to an Evil Fiend.

However, judging by the way Zheng Yichen was currently taking action, he was still a ruthless person. They needed to extend extra thanks to Zheng Yichen on their side. If not for what Zheng Yichen had done, it would have been impossible for them to uncover this conspiracy. By the time the sky cover had existed longer, the hidden mole would have initiated the plot when the time was right...

By then, there would be no room to maneuver at all. Let Zheng Yichen go in contact with that anomaly if he wants. The situation couldn’t get any worse. The sky cover was accumulating power swiftly; in fact, it already had enough power to unleash an attack that could cover the anomaly, but their initial plan was to be cautious, wanting to accumulate even more power.

The power for an attack was sufficient, but the sky cover’s limit was far from being reached.

Even if the anomaly showed some changes later, as long as the attack from the sky cover was effective, it would still be within an acceptable range.

"My power has already been severely polluted, and I cannot help you with anything. You can only rely on yourselves." The elder suppressed his expression, trying to appear as normal as possible, "There’s no time to lose; you better leave quickly."

This group of warriors left with heavy hearts. The Three Glory warriors could be said to be the top scorers in this world. The Three Glory, corresponding to the three suns in the sky, would be recorded as long as one could reach such a level.

But this doesn’t mean that Three Glory warriors are the strongest. Three Glory is not the limit but the perfect score. The elder who had spoken to them just now belonged to those ’restricted’ by the score limit. Although he was of the Three Glory, he was powerful enough to kill any of them with a single slap.

Such a powerful expert of the Three Glory had been polluted by the Black Light. The Black Light could even spread continuously to other normal elders through the nodes of the sky cover...

The previous death of a powerful expert of the Three Glory meant that this world would take at least a hundred years to recover, but at least it could slowly recover. However, if these elders perished, it would be equal to breaking the backbone of the high-end fighting power of this world.

There would still be warriors as strong as these elders in the future, but they definitely couldn’t be replenished within a hundred years.

Top-end fighting power is like a nuclear bomb; its mere existence, even without taking action, deters others. Now, as their world faced invaders from an alien world and Boundary Breakers who had tricked them, without sufficient high-end fighting power, even if this crisis was resolved, what would they do when these enemies returned?

Try to make contact with Dusk? Have some shame—besides, with the truth and lies so intertwined, they couldn’t be sure if Dusk was truly unproblematic.

On their way leaving, they were attacked. The attackers didn’t care at all about those two Boundary Breakers, focusing solely on wiping them out.

This attack resulted in further casualties on their side. Those covering the rear gave up on themselves and were completely corrupted by the Black Light. In their madness, they blocked the attackers.

"Damn it! What in the world is happening? What stupid things did we do in the past!" In a small grove, a Three Glory warrior clenched his fists. The attack had exacerbated their already exhausted state, and they were all aware that this attack wouldn’t be the last. They had to be careful, or the next one would come soon.

The mole’s status turned out to be much higher than they anticipated, especially when they witnessed some details as their rear guards fell. The attackers, except for a few who weren’t affected by the Black Light, had all been influenced.

Those who were influenced weren’t Boundary Breakers or anything like that. They were traitors!

"Now is not the time to discuss right or wrong. We need to bring the people to the corresponding place." A younger Three Glory warrior said, their Light type power could heal. Even after those two Boundary Breakers had their limbs chopped off, they could still live well. As for being polluted? Non-natives fear the pollution; it’s meant for them!

Another Three Glory warrior said, "Right, by the time we gathered together, those ’investigation authorities’ conducting the probes had already faced problems, hadn’t they? Since they could take such actions, they definitely considered all possible aspects, while we were manipulated unknowingly."

The unsuspecting fell to the cunning. The information provided by the investigation authorities, along with the ’facts’ they observed while acting upon the investigation results, made them quite convinced of some of the findings.

Therefore, the most important thing now is to take these two Boundary Breakers to an important node area that maintains the sky dome, to allow the senior there to dig out enough information.

"If you’ve rested enough, let’s hurry up and go, walking so slowly will kill us!" A female Three Glory powerful expert slashed her own arm, black blood spurting from the wound, yet even that could not lighten the black spots on her body.

...

In the military camp, the blood mist surrounding Zheng Yichen gradually dissipated; the battle was over. He glanced at those who, out of fear, had forgotten to escape—those unaffected by the Black Light were simply because they were ordinary soldiers with no special powers.

But even ordinary people could be affected; they were just lucky not to be.

His gaze lingered briefly before he left without a word. There were more places waiting for him. This was a good opportunity, a chance to collect the essence of life and demonic thoughts. Even though these people were victims, once the victims turned into zombies, they became wandering disasters.

They weren’t zombies, but that kind of contamination from the Black Light was equivalent to zombies for the creatures of this world; getting hurt by them would mean contamination, and they themselves were also mad and irrational.

In that case, he might as well do the world a favor and clean up these pests.

"Damn it—what kind of evil force is this Proxy Agent!??" a Boundary Breaker who was monitoring Zheng Yichen’s situation felt terrified, not only by the slaughter Zheng Yichen showed but also by the aura he emitted.

He knew the art of Qi Observation, which allowed him to observe the ’aura’ of a target from a great distance. After observing, he almost fainted from the intense ’demonic’ aura before he changed his approach to discover more information.

As Zheng Yichen killed, that ’demonic’ aura also intensified, and the longer he watched, the more his head buzzed, feeling as if he was being tempted into demonization.

Isn’t that why Proxy Agents are dozens or hundreds of times more troublesome than Dusk mercenaries?

This guy was killing those mad soldiers en masse, collecting their blood and the growing demonic thoughts, like someone stacking kill bonuses on their gear, and what concerned him more was that it seemed there was no limit to the layers on that gear.

If Zheng Yichen kept cutting down like this, could those old guys really stop him? No, the question was, would those old guys still dare to stop him?

If he genuinely solved the anomaly issue, it would render all their previous preparations wasted. The sky dome wouldn’t disappear because of it, but even if the sky dome’s outbreak affected all life in this world, plunging them into chaos without any resistance, futile efforts to uproot this world would still be in vain.

As for a comeback? It’s not impossible, but that’s not going to be a short-term matter anymore. Dusk might be deteriorating but it’s not for show, and after this failure, it would be like this world had been vaccinated. Any behavior related to breaking boundaries would trigger Dusk.

The threshold for this trigger has been pushed down to zero... Manipulate? The moment you try to manipulate, Dusk hunters will come here immediately, and they even don’t need to manipulate anything; they arrive in a ’breaking through boundaries’ manner, a method that under normal circumstances, would never catch Dusk’s attention.

But with the ’vaccine’ in this world, there is no such thing as an advantage of entering first. Unless there’s a numerical overrun, with Dusk’s interference, there’s no hope of completely shattering this world’s boundaries.

Thus, the chances of a comeback are too slim, and that short period of time means waiting for two or three hundred years.

He cannot be allowed to continue his slaughter.

The Boundary Breaker wanted to pass on the information to other allies, to have them think of a solution, but at that moment, he suddenly felt a chill as a meteor-like brilliance shot from afar in an instant: "What is that???"

The attack was released by Zheng Yichen; it was a black spear wrapped in light, but the problem was that the light clearly belonged to this world, so how could Zheng Yichen generate such a strong Light-type power?

This thought flashed through his mind, then his brain turned to chaos amidst severe pain, while the black spear with light continued its relentless flight toward more distant places, turning everything in its path to dust.

Zheng Yichen, sitting emotionlessly on the motorcycle, took out a new amulet from the storage and hung it on himself. The projection of the artificial intelligence Lilith appeared, peering out with just half a head as if hiding behind a door to secretly watch him.

The current Zheng Yichen, compared to his original self, while still the same person, exhibited abnormal changes in mental fluctuations, and through energy monitoring, Lilith also captured an ’obscure’ energy entwined around Zheng Yichen.
