[On an Unregarded Stage, complete a Resounding Applause curtain call].
Chen Ling seemingly thought of something. Turning his head looking towards this deathly silent city sealed by ice, and the sky full of aurora constantly surging in the sky above it... Those were the souls of the Aurora City crowd engraved in the sky above, overlooking the great earth.
Unregarded... Resounding Applause... curtain call...
Curtain call??
A thought instantly flashed past Chen Ling's mind, his both eyes gradually lighting up!
"[Six of Hearts], what happened to you?"
Seeing Chen Ling suddenly stop his footsteps, the few Dusk Society members walking in front, one after another turned their heads looking over. They looked at that figure standing alone amidst the black snow, their eyes full of doubt.
"Various seniors, you guys go first." Chen Ling raised his head glancing at the sky full of aurora. "I... still have matters to do."
The crowd all blanked out, speaking in astonishment:
"You can't be serious right? In a while the Forbidden Sea Calamities are about to break the city. Is there any matter more important than life?"
"You are only Second-Tier right now, still not a match for those Calamities... After they enter the city, you wanting to go out again, will be even harder than ascending the sky."
Even these Dusk Society members whose brain circuits were different from ordinary people, at this moment also had no way to understand Chen Ling's operation. In their eyes Chen Ling was no more than Second-Tier. Not even enough for any random Calamity in the Forbidden Sea to slap with one palm. Staying behind at this time was no different from seeking death.
On the contrary it was [9] who shrugged his shoulders, spreading his hands saying:
"I say what are you guys panicking about... [Six of Hearts] staying behind, the one that should be afraid is the Forbidden Sea right?"
The crowd reacted over. Looking at Chen Ling with subtle expressions, suddenly feeling what [9] said was very reasonable... This kid was a "World-Ending" ah? If he really went berserk, afraid the entire Forbidden Sea would all have to suffer disaster!
"[Six of Hearts], are you sure?" Only Chu Muyun still wrinkled his brows. "You staying behind this time, will then truly be isolated and without help... No one can come to save you."
Chu Muyun had seen Chen Ling go berserk with his own eyes. He knew this matter was not as simple as other people thought. If the "World-Ending" power was not controlled well, Chen Ling would also die.
Chen Ling calmly nodded. "I am sure."
An Unregarded Stage, a Resounding Applause curtain call... In this world, perhaps only the current Aurora City could satisfy this condition. Changing to another way to speak, if he missed this opportunity, he would then never again have the opportunity for Advancement to the Third Tier.
Rather than cutting off his own path of Advancement, forever unable to return to the original era, it was better to gamble with his life and fight it out here!
The good news was, he already had 68% Audience Expectation Value right now. Exerting effort a bit more, he could then have one more life... He also wasn't completely without chances of winning.
Chu Muyun still desired to persuade something, a clear and cold female voice then transmitted from the very front:
"Let him stay behind."
The few people one after another turned their heads looking over, only seeing King of Clubs alone supporting an umbrella standing at the front, gazing at Chen Ling at the end of the team,
Fluttering black snowflakes sprinkled on the great earth between the two people. Their gazes crashed together,
"Whatever you want to do just go do it." She spoke anew. "We will wait for you outside the city for ten minutes... After ten minutes, no matter what the result is, we won't wait anymore."
Chen Ling blanked out for a bit. He originally wanted to let the other people go first. Didn't think King of Clubs was unexpectedly still willing to wait for himself... You must know, what was going to erupt in a while, was exactly the Calamity wave of the Forbidden Sea. Even outside the city it was unavoidable to be affected.
Chen Ling also no longer wasted time, immediately nodding:
"Many thanks to various seniors!"
He turned his head then towards the road just walked past, rapidly flying and skimming back!
"Tsk... This batch of newcomers, as expected are not simple ah." Looking at his leaving back figure, someone couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "Second-Tier then daring to face the Forbidden Sea head-on, this is even crazier than Nine of Hearts."
"Hey, if you talk about him then talk about him, why mention me?" [9] was unhappy. "I am a serious person okay?"
"...Right right right, you are a serious person."
"Let's go quickly let's go quickly... Otherwise in a while Calamities will bite our butts!"
The eight figures looked for a last glance at the direction Chen Ling left, straight walking towards outside the city.
...
Chen Ling fast walked passing through the street with heavy snow flying wildly. The corpses frozen to death on the roadside, already had a third of them being invaded and occupied.
Not only eye sockets, nostrils, both ears, even the skin surface all started growing out weird blood-colored flower bouquets. Those Curse Runes swimming on the sea surface, seemingly like crazy searching for physical bodies. It's just because the quantity wasn't many, they still hadn't entered inside each building, so victims were still a minority.
Speaking of which... that King of Clubs, how did she delay the Forbidden Sea Calamities for this long?
This doubt flashed past Chen Ling's mind. While running towards a certain direction, while jumping up to the high places of surrounding buildings, his gaze looked towards outside the city wall...
His pupils slightly shrank.
Only seeing outside the city wall, a dark red slashing mark pierced through the sky. Beneath the slashing mark, streaks of dark red faint light drooped down, like an incomparably huge red curtain being pulled up, separating Aurora City and the Forbidden Sea Calamities.
And at this moment, densely packed figures were currently from the other side crashing against this piece of red curtain. The surface of the curtain from time to time printed out different Calamity bodies, even having huge weird handprints. Following these things crazily crashing, the surface of the curtain also started appearing cracks...
She used a piece of curtain, then separated the city and Calamities?
This King of Clubs, after all was what kind of person??
Chen Ling's mind was shocked, but the footsteps beneath his feet actually didn't have a single bit of stopping. Within ten something seconds he passed through the street, arriving before that shattered city gate ruin!
Tan Xin whose whole body was blood was currently alone sitting in the ruins, gazing at the surging aurora overhead. Not knowing what he was thinking about.
He saw Chen Ling approaching towards here, doubt also emerging in his eyes...
"It's you?" Tan Xin's brows slightly wrinkled. "Why did you come back again?"
Time was pressing, Chen Ling didn't have time to explain to him, getting straight to the point asking:
"Give the Explosives Detonator for the 'Reappearance' plan to me."
Hearing this sentence, Tan Xin slightly blanked out. "What do you want to do?"
"The Forbidden Sea Calamities are about to attack their way in. Do you feel those souls drifting in the sky, hope to see their own physical bodies be treated as nutrients, breeding out millions of Calamity monsters?" Chen Ling raised his hand pointing at the sky full of aurora.
Tan Xin was stunned. He sized up Chen Ling for a moment, slowly again leaning back on top of the wall.
"You... plan to bomb flat Aurora City?"
"Right."
"The Detonator is not on my body." Tan Xin shook his head.
"Not on your body?" Chen Ling was stunned. "Wasn't it you who took it away?"
"It was me who took it, but at that time I was currently being encircled and suppressed by the Enforcers, and also needed to head-on battle Lord of the Aurora. Naturally impossible to put it on my body... Once they stole the Detonator away from my body, the plan would then completely fail."
"Then where is the Detonator??"
Tan Xin fell silent for a moment, slowly spitting out two words:
"Han Meng."
