Chapter 1529: Chapter 1077: The Last Assassin

"You shouldn’t have dispatched the Biomimetic Teardrop to the front line," Qiu Wentian whispered within the central throne room of Spirit Domain. "Now, it’s just you and me left as your guard."

As a friend, although Qiu Wentian was envious of Chen Yu’s physique, she stayed close by him at this dangerous moment.

Even as the defense line was in jeopardy, she didn’t waver.

Because she knew, while the line could stop enemy troops, it couldn’t guard against those assassins who appeared out of nowhere.

When Chen Yu had originally ordered Teardrop to support the front line, Qiu Wentian had voiced her opposition outright. Alas, the control of Teardrop laid in Chen Yu’s hands.

"Once the line collapses, the effect of Spirit Domain significantly weakens, and I won’t be able to continue summoning heroes with this power," Chen Yu responded wearily, "We must not let the defense line break. We can’t let all our previous efforts be in vain."

In front of her burned merely a misleading shadow of the Crying Hero.

Then, suddenly, he looked outside the room, being an Evil God, it was clear he had noticed something.

"This isn’t a good idea," the Crying Hero said in a low voice.

And in the next second, the specially-made door at the end of the room was violently blown open. The defense team and the Transcendents supposed to be stationed outside had already been silently killed, their necks slashed without even triggering an alarm.

After Biomimetic Teardrop’s departure, assassins from different races that had infiltrated the giant city amidst the spreading war found their way into the defense line, which now showed flaws as Black Palace players retreated, allowing them past the troops of the fifth and sixth Devil Kings, and around the disguise of the seventh Devil King. Finally, they infiltrated the core area of the Spirit Domain.

And they finally showed their fangs.

From different factions, yet with the same goal—to kill the woman trying to summon human powerhouses—was their sole task!

Divinities from all factions promised unbelievable rewards. Entire legions deployed in their cover, even the Annihilation folks shared technology that would allow them to avoid human detection and ease their stealth.

As long as they beheaded this woman, they would instantly rise to power!

The world governor of Annihilation Civilization, the holder of Chaos world, and the mystical inheritances of various races. These were only a part of the rewards!

Among these assassins was the Different Race player, Skull Crusher!

Clad in Annihilation’s optical camouflage armor, wielding a giant metal firearm, he burst into the room, exclaiming, "I reckon, this house is made of sand!"

This was no joke; Skull Crusher was a favorite of the Beastmen Divinities, and the Beastmen race possessed powerful reality-distorting abilities. His pronouncement, "I reckon," could truly affect reality, quite akin to "so be it."

As he roared these words, the room began to rapidly transform into sand, the reinforcement team arriving only to see collapsing corridors, and the ground beneath Chen Yu and Qiu Wentian starting to sink.

The nine assassins and Different Race players surged forward, grasping various weapons and firearms aimed at Chen Yu.

This was their unprecedented chance; human powerhouses were scattered, held up by legions and the Great Chaos Demon as well as the Divinities. That most troublesome Biomimetic Teardrop was finally gone—it was their best opportunity!

"That woman has only one player and one spiritual projection whose light is nearly extinguished, kill her!" Skull Crusher shouted, "Completely expel Li Ba!"

At that moment, the assassins were excited. After so much expenditure and sacrifice of many players, they had finally found their chance!

There were only two human players here now, but they were nine, including the powerful Beastman player Skull Crusher. Had Teardrop still been here, they might have hesitated. But now, they were fearless!

As for the spiritual projection, well... the assassins didn’t care. If it had been able to act, it would have already done so!

However, just then,

"All out of fuel and light?" The seemingly nearly burnt-out shadow suddenly spoke, "I was pretending!"

And under the stunned gaze of the nine Different Race players, the Crying Hero’s remaining left arm suddenly turned solid and fiercely grasped the nearest Skull Crusher! That grip, full of malice and despair, directly crushed Skull Crusher’s spiritual energy barrier.

Skull Crusher was petrified; how could he anticipate, even after burning to this extent, the Evil God had held back a move!

In urgency, he could only forcefully raise his hand, triggering the gun in his possession.

The powerful weapon from the Ancient Beastmen, the Beastman Plasma Cannon!

Dazzling plasma burst forth, its heat reaching millions of degrees, capable of destroying any material!

Yet, against an Evil God, a being with Black Mud Divinity, it was nothing!

The dazzling plasma instantly turned pitch black and reversed its course, smashing right back at Skull Crusher’s upper body, instantly vaporizing him with extreme temperature.

The mighty Beastman, God’s Chosen of dual Divinities, met his end by his own weapon.

The two players behind him were also annihilated by the plasma cannon.

And after this action, the Crying Hero’s arm also began to fade; his supposed weakness was indeed a ploy, but only partly so.

And the players from a Different Race, filled with a terror that engulfed their entire being, made the most insane move. They came here with only two possible outcomes.

Succeed and receive rewards from various forces.

Fail, and die at the hands of humans or their own Divinities.

Thus, after the Crying Hero made his move, the last player from the Blood Clan among the Different Race players resolutely pulled out their final plan to complete the Task, even if it meant certain death.

A massive missile appeared with a flash of spatial distortion in his hand.

"Take this, the Black Hole Bomb!" the Blood Clan player roared, setting it off directly.

This was a Black Hole Bomb that was already on the verge of exploding, stored in the player’s backpack.

At the instant it appeared, the Black Hole Bomb was activated.

Simultaneously, the Crying Hero’s ethereal left hand struck out with full force!

The Black Hole Bomb, while devouring everything in an instant, was smashed directly by the Crying Hero’s furious Divinity. Yet, the terrifying gravitational pull that could devour everything still exploded.

Almost instantly, starting from the central room in the Spirit Domain, all structures above, whether from human or Different Race legions, were devoured by the Black Hole Bomb. In the end, the Crying Hero could only control the position and range affected by the Black Hole Bomb, but couldn’t stop the explosion.

This disruption was noticed by the Demigods from the Different Race.

"The Black Hole Bomb has exploded; the Spirit Domain is shattered!"

"A weapon capable of killing Demigods should leave no survivors!"

"The plan succeeded! Li Ba has finally been permanently banished!"

Most of the Divinities rejoiced. However, when they saw the azure flames still burning in the void, they couldn’t help but feel a sinking feeling in their hearts.

That woman... she’s still alive!

"No need to worry, destiny has already been written," laughed the God of The Destiny Line. "Our lord has arranged the final assassin!"

And below the Spirit Domain, several kilometers deep into the Bottom Nest, Chen Yu struggled to climb out from the collapsed walls.

Exhausted, she leaned against the wall, gasping for air.

She and Qiu Wentian had used the Supreme King’s artifact, the Thousand Miles Button, just before the explosion of the Black Hole Bomb!

They were randomly teleported several kilometers away, escaping the reach of the Black Hole Bomb.

This was their last resort.

If all defensive lines failed,

then Chen Yu would directly use the Thousand Miles Button to escape the Battlefield, and summon help with her own strength.

Having lost the power enhancement from the Spirit Domain, Chen Yu found materializing the Crying Hero extremely exhausting. She could barely hear the Crying Hero’s voice and could barely ignite the Azure Flame.

But... at least the plan had succeeded.

Due to the Black Hole Bomb, many pipes and paths in the Bottom Nest had collapsed.

Fortunately, she was not crushed by the debris.

Now, Chen Yu looked around. Broken light tubes were flickering with sparks, dim lights were barely visible in the distance, and everything else was shrouded in darkness.

Currently, she must be somewhere below the Bottom Nest.

Forget the Different Race; even she didn’t know her exact location.

Here, she could safely summon human experts.

"This really turned out to be a blessing in disguise," panted Chen Yu, not knowing where Qiu Wentian had been teleported to.

But now, she probably didn’t need protection anymore.

However, just then, she eerily heard footsteps coming from deep within the pipes.

"So this is karma, this is fate... Destiny has brought you before me!" The figure slowly emerged, the dim dagger in his hand glowing faintly.

He... was the final assassin!
