Light Fortress-Chapter 1470 - 201: Doomsday (Part 3)_2

The [Truth. Extinguishing Candle] and [Achilles’ Heel] require a constant drain of spiritual power... He needs to hunt Xiao down thoroughly; there’s no time to waste. The few seconds spent transforming Adam’s Soul Spirit was the utmost mercy he could afford. At this moment, the entire volcano was in turmoil, like a heartbeat beneath the ground sensing fear the moment the arrow was shot.

Something is about to emerge.

Gu Shen’s face was emotionless. He stood atop the mountain, once again drawing his bow and nocking an arrow, without any deliberate aim.

The thick ash from the mountain obscured the view.

That was unimportant.

The [Achilles’ Heel] had already given this arrow its correct trajectory and answer.

"Whoosh—"

"Boom!"

A slender silver gleam gathered at his fingertips, shot out!

The next moment, a kilometer-high scarlet wave of fire erupted from the foot of [Tanyao] Mountain, as if something had been blown apart, blood gushing out from the explosion!

"Not dead yet..."

Gu Shen redrew the bow and nocked another arrow, his expression remaining calm, undisturbed, but these two shots already consumed eighty percent of the spiritual power in his Heart Lake!

"Then continue."

He stood at the mountain top, aimed at [Tanyao]’s fissure, and released the third shot—

In the vision of the [Achilles’ Heel], the "scarlet point" indicating the weak spot of Blood Fire had significantly dimmed after the last shot.

The third shot exploded!

"Rumble!"

This time there was no surging wave of blood, only a heavy, dull echo splashing from the fissure.

After this strike, Gu Shen’s spiritual power was already running dry.

In the vista of [Achilles’ Heel], the weak point of Blood Fire no longer shone brightly... this at least indicated that Xiao’s true form was severely wounded.

"It should not be dead yet, but I can’t just leave it at that."

Gu Shen decisively dispersed the [Extinguishing Candle].

The moment the silver bow vanished, the auxiliary field of [Achilles’ Heel] disappeared as well.

The world in Gu Shen’s eyes reverted to normal, no longer the strange structured world where the weaknesses of all things floated...

He promptly sat cross-legged, facing the scorching breath of [Tanyao]’s mountain mouth, and began to recover his spiritual power.

The present situation was simple.

The three long-range shots from the [Truth. Extinguishing Candle] essentially resolved this battle.

Just like when Zhou Yu was shot dead years ago.

This is a supreme weapon capable of killing enemies regardless of level; the only way to resist and confront it is to produce a "Fire Seed Level" divine artifact of the same level and specification.

Xiao was very unlucky.

He could only consider himself unfortunate.

But Gu Shen knew, although the three shots from Extinguishing Candle shattered the Blood Fire, the creature must still be alive... the resilience of Blood Fire’s life force was unmatched by nearly any ability.

So this time Gu Shen was not going to give Xiao any chance to counterattack.

He is now sitting at [Tanyao]’s summit, partly to guard against the Blood Fire’s true form from escaping, and partly because... he needs to gather the spiritual power for the fourth shot of the [Truth. Extinguishing Candle].

Diving deep underground next, no matter what situation arises, there will be no surprises. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The explosive blast of the fourth Candle shot will bring an end to all battles!

At this moment, [Tanyao] is in its final silence... the earth quivers, countless Beast Spirits have already breached the urban area, rushing towards this place.

Gu Shen knows.

This is Xiao’s final resistance.

Next, an uncountable number of Beast Spirits will pour onto the mountain, and he needs to resolve everything before that.

It’s not impossible for Xiao to dismantle the "Sangzhou Cave" for survival.

There’s not much time left for him.

...

...

"Sir Su Ye, currently the Source Tower is in the final stage of evacuation."

East Cave, E2 District.

Responsible for the actions of the Vermilion Bird Envoy District Law Enforcers, Du Hu stood atop a towering tower, overlooking the entire city area gripped in turmoil.

After the second Beast Tide, the Vermilion Bird Divine Envoy did not return to the district.

Following the results of the World Conference, Mr. Tianshui urgently launched a call-back—

The remaining three Divine Envoys all chose to depart from the Sangzhou Cave.

Now, the Red Dragon Envoy handed the control of Vermilion Bird’s Law Enforcers and the final garrison tasks to Du Hu...

In this night of torrential rain and the Beast Tide’s pounding.

This Hidden Child planted by Light City, could finally perform Spiritual Link recklessly; his subordinate Law Enforcers had already been dispatched, and the Source Tower was unconcerned with the survival of ordinary citizens. At this moment, most of East Cave’s urban areas were empty.

"The final order from the Red Dragon was to open the city gates."

Du Hu spoke calmly, "Perhaps that is an order from above... But to me, this command seems strange, because opening the city of East Cave will lead to a surge of extraordinary people in the S12 District, which is the last garrison area of East Continent. Central City and Changye should both be planning to rescue the native Transcendents of Sangzhou Cave."

This should have been Light City’s responsibility!

"North Continent... East Continent..."

Su Ye stood at the base of the city tower in West Cave, surrounded by silence, in a night of rain here as bright as day.

A blazing sphere nearly a hundred meters large hovered over the W9 District.

The sphere seemed like a sun.

On this final pitch-black night, this sun condensed under the rain of the Ice Sea—

The silence was because every living being around had been killed.

The "sun" absorbed the scarlet blood energy.

Su Ye walked slowly towards the next city district, having already sent the evacuation signal to his subordinates. Light City, having lost the Holy Book, was unable to find the culprit, could only retreat, and announced the failure of the faith transformation mission for Sangzhou Cave.

The only thing he could do.

Was to lock the city gates, making those damned "marchers" shut up.
