"Cough cough cough..."
Han Meng wiped away the fresh blood at the corners of his mouth. His gaze swept past all around. The shattered windbreaker had already been dyed with mottled blood color.
But along with the Grey Intent in the sky gradually permeating, colors other than black white and gray were all erased. Han Meng only felt his eyes blur. For a moment he already couldn't distinguish clearly whether what was on the ground was his own blood, or snowflakes fluttering down from the sky.
In this piece of gray world, one after another monsters that seemed to only exist in black and white films, resembling tall city walls surrounded by his surroundings,
The fluttering heavy snow was like blurry noise points, silently flashing in this oppressive world.
This wasn't Han Meng's first time seeing the Gray World. Even if verging on a desperate situation, his expression was also still calm. He knew he mostly couldn't escape this calamity. Since it was like this, he could only risk his life to fight it out. At least pulling a few more Calamities to die together.
He first confirmed the condition of his gun for a bit, subsequently tightly holding the gun handle, vigilantly looking at every surrounding Calamity...
Rustle—— Rustle——
The rustling footsteps of leather shoes stepping on the accumulated snow, broke this dead silence that made one suffocate.
Noise point-like black heavy snow, silently fluttered down in the withered and silent world. A figure supporting a black umbrella, walked over from the Unregarded frost and snow small path.
The black umbrella brim shielded half of his face. Han Meng could only see clearly the solemn Suit on his body. Along with his approach, the surrounding Calamities stirred restlessly, seemingly currently judging whether that human had threat or not. Preparing at any time to smash his corpse into ten thousand pieces together!
The nation solely belonging to the Forbidden Sea, how could it allow having humans existing alive within it?
Right when the Calamities' low roars gradually rang out, that figure walking over supporting an umbrella, slowly lifted a hand, feeling towards his own chin...
Sizzle——!
The instant when he tore down the face skin, a smear of piercing scarlet replaced the Suit, fluttering and dancing amidst the piercing cold wind!
That was a big red Theatrical Robe. Its color was just like the fangs of some kind of fierce beast, tearing open a corner of this gray withered and silent world. Its brightness and showiness, seemingly were warning all living creatures approaching it... Danger! Danger!!
At this moment, all Forbidden Sea Calamities were all stunned. They subconsciously retreated backward. Making way for a road for that slowly walking scarlet figure...
That figure just like this calmly passed through the Calamities' encirclement, stopping footsteps before Han Meng's front.
The black umbrella brim slowly lifted a corner.
"Looks like, I came just right."
Han Meng saw Chen Ling's face beneath the umbrella, slightly blanking out, his expression somewhat complex: "Why are you still here? The Dusk Society people, haven't they all already left?"
"I stayed behind having a bit of matters to do."
"What matter?"
Roar——!!!
Chen Ling just desired to say something, that colossal giant holding the long stick, seeing the surrounding Calamities all had no reaction to Chen Ling, stubbornly glared its eyeballs. Angrily roaring anew towards Chen Ling!
Terrifying Oppressive Aura accompanied its roar like a wild wind suddenly descending. A burst of foul stench of rotting Seaweed sprayed surging out from its mouth. This giant Calamity exposed fangs towards Chen Ling!
This roar, made the other surrounding Calamities all look dumbfounded. They still hadn't had time to have any movements,
Chen Ling's palm holding the umbrella suddenly clenched tight!
"Shut Up!!!"
Chen Ling's both pupils shrank beneath the umbrella brim. He crazily glared at the giant. The angry roar resembled thunder!
The next moment, densely packed red pupils opened from nothingness, dyeing Chen Ling's pupils also with a trace of red intent. Like countless malevolent mocking monsters staring fixedly at the giant. A wisp of terrifying to the extreme Aura, surged out from this gaze!!
These two words instantly suppressed the giant's angry roar. An invisible air wave crazily expanded with Chen Ling as the center. Panic and fear emerged in all Calamities' eyes!
[Audience Expectation Value +3]
The giant was stupefied. It blankly clenched the long stick, scared by those numerous eyes that flashed past to retreat half a step... At the same time, ten something Curse Runes Seaweed rapidly tied onto its body, pressing its whole person down on the ground. The great earth emitted an array of rumbling!
That even more colossal Seventh-Tier Seaweed Calamity, deadly pressed down on the giant, its gaze looking towards it as if saying:
You fucking seeking death ah?! What did you provoke him for????
At the time in the Winter Sea, this Seventh-Tier Calamity had already suffered a loss. It deeply knew Chen Ling's body had great terror. Fundamentally not daring to provoke him the slightest bit... Just happened this silly big guy couldn't understand the situation. Biting the bullet only knowing to be reckless, almost scared its soul off.
And Han Meng at the side, similarly was also intimidated by the imposing aura Chen Ling unintentionally emitted just now. He blankly stared at the Red-Clad Figure before his eyes, seemingly thinking of something...
"World-Ending..." Han Meng muttered to himself.
At this moment, Han Meng finally connected everything together... His memory once again returned to that rainy night. He detected the fluctuation of a "World-Ending" level Calamity at District Three's Mass Grave Mound. At that time he thought the Calamity Pointer had a malfunction, but looking at it now, it wasn't so...
On that rainy night, District Three truly crawled out a "World-Ending"!
Moreover that "World-Ending", actually had always been exactly before his own eyes.
Chen Ling didn't hear Han Meng's murmurs. He withdrew his gaze from the giant's body. The countless pupils behind him also disappeared following it... As if everything that appeared just now, was merely an illusion.
"Where did I say up to?" Chen Ling recovered his senses asking.
Han Meng looked at him complexly. After being silent for a long time still spoke, "Said up to... why you stayed behind."
"Oh, I plan to blow up Aurora City." Chen Ling directly asked. "The Detonator is at your place, right?"
Han Meng blanked out. Only then did he know Chen Ling thought together to the same place as himself.
"Right... But, wanting to detonate the Explosives in all regions of the whole city in one breath, one must detonate it at a high enough place, otherwise the signal has no way to completely cover."
"High enough place huh..."
Chen Ling looked towards the distance. Beneath the gray sky, a tower flying a kite was currently standing not far away. But at this time Aurora City almost everywhere was Calamities. Even the outer surface of the tower, lay several catfish-like monsters.
"Me going is enough, you give the Detonator to me." Chen Ling extended his hand.
Han Meng glanced at the Detonator in his hand. After short hesitation, shook his head.
"No, I'll go. Right now the Explosives reserve inside Aurora City is too much. Once detonated, it's impossible for anyone to survive. Aurora City has already disappeared. I am the last Enforcer in this city. This originally should exactly be my mission.
As for you... you don't belong here, isn't that so?"
Chen Ling's brows slightly raised up. "You plan to perish together with the Calamities in this city?"
Han Meng didn't answer. He only silently gazed at the aurora overhead. But his look had already explained everything... He and Tan Xin were the same. Ever since deciding to execute the "Hand of Salvation" plan, he hadn't planned to leave alive.
"I feel it's inappropriate." Chen Ling shook his head. "You still give the Detonator to me."
"Chen Ling, you don't need to persuade anymore, my mind is already decided."
"...I'm serious."
"Me too."
Seeing Han Meng completely not wavering. Chen Ling just like this gazed at him for a long time. Helplessly long sighing a breath...
