Two hours have passed since Alex was buried under the rocky ground, his body nearly exhausted. His legs were pinned down by the rocks, and the injuries sustained earlier were now worsening. If he hadn't quickly drawn a protective barrier to stop everything, his head might have been crushed by now. Blood oozed, clouding his mind, almost making his recollection of his previous life a blurry dream.In this life, would he die more senselessly than before? The thought made Alex appear colder. Eventually, he fell into a near-silent state, gazing at his watch—it was 7 PM, but the rescue team's sound hadn't reached him yet. It seemed they either couldn't find a clue to locate him, or they were still blocked by the thick layer of rock outside.At this moment, what stood between Alex and freedom was just a rock—not small, but not too large either. He could have easily kicked this rock away if he were uninjured and had enough strength. However, the current situation offered no escape."A
Alex's car swiftly moved along the road, almost non-stop day and night. After four days, he finally reached the Mysticus region. Alex looked at the thick fog in front of him with a serious expression. Whether it was due to his deep thoughts or not, this fog seemed thicker than he remembered.However, Alex couldn't afford to prolong his time; he had to get into this place as quickly as possible. Alex's car penetrated the fog, and the headlights couldn't pierce through it. Everything seemed even more mysterious and unpredictable in the dim light. Alex even mentally prepared himself to encounter a monster or something suddenly jumping out of the fog to attack him.But it seemed like luck was on his side. He managed to pass through the fog without any hindrance. Alex couldn't help but exhale, feeling like he had been overly anxious.However, as the car approached the city center, Alex realized that his concern might not be unreasonable.In the sky above the Mysticus region's city
Michael severed the connection, and Vanessa immediately scoffed before also cutting off the communication. The government president couldn't help but sigh, waving his hand, saying, "Alright, you two quickly go handle your own affairs."The remaining two also cut off contact as soon as he finished speaking. The government president looked deeply at the virtual screen in front of him, where the images were being projected—a post that Alex had uploaded.00:27:38:07Time continued to pass without any signs of stopping, but it seemed like there weren't many people paying attention to it anymore. Many people were still bustling on the streets, some finishing their work while others were just starting their shifts.Alex remained seated on the stone bench, and his position didn't change even a bit. He wore a dark blue hoodie, light-colored jeans, and white sneakers, with a bag slung over his shoulder, resembling a student. Indeed, he was only 17 years old.At this moment, a sudden voice
The sound of tall trees being violently felled echoed loudly, prompting others to quickly turn around.Only a haze of dust was visible, with trees in the distance falling, indicating that something terrifying was heading their way!The man who seemed to be leading the group almost instantly shouted, "Run!" Others, almost instinctively, lifted their feet and ran out of the dense forest. Fear and panic filled their faces.Tears streamed down some faces as they desperately tried to run forward. Yes, the A-level monster seemed terrifying, but they still had one chance! If they could survive for ten days, they would escape this place! This hope seemed to ignite a spark in everyone; they ran a little faster.However, they were still too slow compared to that monstrous creature. "Boom!" A thunderous sound echoed as something toppled the trees behind them. A large tree with a massive trunk fell directly, causing the tiny humans to scream and scatter. Some were too slow and were crushe
The sky plunged into darkness, leaving only the frantic countdown numbers; the air became increasingly tense, with no way out. Under the vault of the dungeon in Mystica, Alex sat in his usual spot, his gaze fixed on the top of the door frame, where the current number displayed was 03/10.Only three survivors remained, and the rate of destruction was no different from that of a Level A dungeon. Perhaps, in the early stages, for ordinary people, the dungeon level meant nothing. Regardless of entering any dungeon, death awaited them.At this moment, those who had been frenzied and violent seemed to have fallen silent. They sat slumped on the ground, tears flowing like rain. Those outside fared no better; many had returned to their homes, trembling under their blankets. However, they couldn't forget what the news had reported.Without someone entering the dungeon to complete the mission, the monsters inside would overflow and massacre the entire city! Imagining the monsters they ha
The man on the ground had barely time to react when the F-class monsters rushed towards him like hungry wolves. The creatures swarmed him, burying the man beneath them. They used their sharp fangs to bite and tear at him or employed their elongated proboscises to suck the blood and flesh from the man.As they dispersed, the man who had been screaming and pleading just moments ago was now reduced to a scattered pile of bones.The events unfolded so rapidly not even 10 seconds had passed; it was truly terrifying.Others could only see a dizzying spectacle. Some were so frightened that they collapsed, some vomited, and others, unable to endure, quickly fled towards the hilltop. The desperate screams and agonizing cries echoed everywhere, accompanied by the sounds of gulping and the shattering of bones.Those monsters roared triumphantly, chasing after those who fled towards the hilltop. Soon, they would reach the summit.The man who had been sitting on the ground witnessed this scen
Two weeks had passed, and during these days, major newspapers across the continent were frantically updating their news. And the main news, of course, was about the dungeons.Even more so, it was about the mysterious figure who had written the article predicting the dungeon explosion. It must be said that the article had many useful points, and the entire continent should be grateful to that person. However, deep down, people still harbored a lot of doubts and fears.The dungeons in Mystica, the earliest completed dungeon, were featured in the press, along with the mysterious teenager who single-handedly completed the dungeon task. Moreover, this teenager was still in Mystica. Combined with the mysterious post being made in Mystica, those in power were suspicious that this teenager was behind the article.However, ordinary people were unaware of this, as they quickly became attracted to something else. That something else was the completion of an A-rank dungeon in Celestria!This
Alex had just left the auction house when he found himself enveloped in a chaotic crowd with ear-piercing screams echoing everywhere. People were rushing and pushing each other, but Alex, being agile, swiftly maneuvered through the crowd, going in the opposite direction of the fleeing masses.It wasn't until he passed through the crowd that he finally saw what caused such fear and chaos. It was a gate. The gate stood tall in its place, and a countdown had already begun on top of it.23:57:45:03.There was one more day; this dungeon would open. However, people were still so frightened that they immediately ran away.Even those who were about to pass through this path instinctively turned and chose a different route.For a moment, within a radius of five meters around the gate, there was not a single soul.Alex: "..."It seemed people had not yet recovered from the shock of those early days. For these gates, a deep fear was ingrained in their minds. It might take a long time for o
Only to see the deity of apocalypse raise his hand, a giant dark sphere quickly appeared in the sky, then continuously expanded, growing larger by the day.Leo wasted no time.He raised his hand, the electricity in his hand seemed to have life, dancing incessantly, finally concentrating to attack the giant dark sphere.The thunderous sound echoed incessantly, and the dark sphere began to shrink, albeit slightly.At this moment, a dark chain suddenly plummeted from the sky at an unimaginable speed, heading straight for Leo.Leo quickly dodged but could not avoid the fate of being pierced through the shoulder.The darkness began to madly corrode his flesh, causing him to bite his lip to suppress the urge to cry out in pain.However, he showed no signs of stopping.Others, seeing this situation, also fervently attacked the giant dark sphere while quickly dodging the dark chains.They also realized that the dark sphere forming in the sky was even more dangerous than the two dungeons about
The God of Apocalypse realized that his heart was exposed, but he seemed to pay little attention to it.Either he was overly confident in his own power, or he was certain that Alex couldn't easily crush that heart.Indeed, if killing the God of Apocalypse were easy, the world probably wouldn't have required so many attempts to restart.The God of Apocalypse looked at Alex and Lucifer, his eyes full of interest. "Ha ha, it's almost like there are two chosen ones here. This last time seems more interesting, doesn't it? So the new dish tastes even better, ha ha ha!"After speaking, he raised his hand, and a massive dark energy immediately overflowed, resembling thousands of knives flying towards Alex and Lucifer.Alex wasted no time and swiftly dodged. But the dark energy didn't pursue him; instead, it all converged to attack Lucifer!Lucifer was enveloped in the dark energy, completely separated from Alex. He was trapped in a completely different space, fighting against entirely diffe
Michael seemed to sense something, lifting his head to gaze towards the darkening sky in the distance.Vanessa furrowed her brows, wasting no time to seize this opportunity to attack. She lunged forward, the darkness in her hand transforming into a sword, thrusting straight towards Michael.In the blink of an eye, she seemed on the verge of successfully piercing through his body. But at that very moment, a dazzling light with immense energy suddenly burst forth, exploding.Vanessa was almost instantly pushed backward by this immense force, flying five meters away and tumbling several times on the ground before managing to regain her balance.Her sword of darkness clattered to the ground as she grimaced, spitting out a mouthful of blood.Raising her head, she looked at Michael with a strange gaze. At this moment, Michael's entire being was enveloped in radiant light, with three pairs of bright wings behind his back.He seemed to pause for a moment, casting a glance at Vanessa.His g
The monsters were burned to ashes by Lucifer's flames, yet they seemed undeterred, leaping forward without fear. However, they couldn't hinder Lucifer from what he was about to do. Just as he lifted his sword slightly, the black flames on the blade surged even fiercer. The flames surrounding him were no exception, seeming to want to soar into the sky. Any monsters attempting to block Lucifer were hurled away, consumed by the scorching flames.Lucifer's power began to manifest. [The Judge of the Shadows]A scale appeared behind Lucifer, resembling a judge pronouncing the crimes of the sinners. Lifting his sword, Lucifer's flames gained immense power. They gathered more and more, ultimately forming into a giant fireball atop the blade. The dungeon spread its wings wide, emitting echoing sounds from within as if warning.Simultaneously, more and more monsters poured out from the dungeon as if attempting to drag Lucifer down to hell. But they, too, couldn't escape the fate of bein
At this very moment, in other regions, the war between humanity and monsters surging from dungeons was incessant.However, the battlefield in Celestria was arguably the most severe. A dungeon emerged in the sky, and simultaneously, statues of gods all over Celestria suddenly opened their eyes, their black eyes oozing blood.They flapped their wings, initiating ceaseless attacks everywhere. And Celestria was the only region where the inhabitants did not evacuate. Because of the lack of warning, most of them never anticipated an impending apocalypse.It wasn't until the statues of gods they had always revered and prayed to came to life, attacking them, and the dungeon in the sky opened, continuously spawning monsters, that they truly felt the despair.At this precise moment, those deemed abandoned by the gods, those tainted, emerged! Ron rallied others, "If you want to survive, quickly evacuate to the black market or find suitable refuge! Those with special abilities charge forward.
The monsters kept coming back to life, pouring out from the giant gate.Lucifer looked at them, then glanced back at Leo, his voice low: "Is this the apocalypse?"Leo pursed his lips, saying nothing.But having been revived once, he could clearly see this was only the beginning of the apocalypse. Until the traitor, who was also the medium for the god of the end, appeared, everything was just a prelude.No one knew Leo's thoughts and worries. Others just kept attacking, trying to stop these monsters from growing stronger every day.Leo's lightning shot everywhere, turning the monsters into ashes. Lucifer's fire blazed across the sky, twisting like snakes, devouring the slimy creatures.If hit by bullets, the pieces of their bodies could reassemble into weaker new forms. But with Lucifer's fire or Leo's lightning, these monsters could only meet one fate: turning into dust.But no matter how strong Lucifer's group was, their manpower was still too little compared to the overwhelming
Others remained vigilant as they peered into the mist.Vanessa, on the other hand, lurked behind them, akin to a true monster. Screams suddenly pierced the air, some filled with despair, as if encountering something utterly terrifying. Alex's wind blades wasted no time, either. They snaked around, swiftly severing the necks of those trailing behind. While these individuals might be skilled soldiers, they stood no chance against Alex's group. They might have the numerical advantage, but in such misty conditions, they would quickly become isolated, a moment when they would succumb to the stronger foes. However, at that moment, Cale's voice resounded abruptly, "More footsteps approaching, another army heading this way, extremely fast and numerous!" Upon hearing Cale's words, both Alex and Vanessa couldn't help but furrow their brows. Alex rolled his eyes, his tone grave, "They're intentional. Perhaps the apocalypse has begun to unfold in the capital. They're just buying time, del
Vanessa ascended to the position of President of the Shadow Realm at the young age of 17. She was the chosen successor after a period of turmoil within the Shadow Realm. At that time, not only did outsiders doubt her, but even those within the Shadow Realm harbored little trust in her. In the darkness, countless people looked down on her, waiting for her to falter from her high seat.However, no one dared to bully her because her external capabilities were truly formidable. In front of everyone, Vanessa always projected herself as a confident and generous person, radiating light wherever she went, seemingly unstoppable.Yet only she knew how fearful she truly was, how many nights she silently cried. And yet, in normal times, she always maintained a confident and generous demeanor.During one of the annual meetings among the regions before the advent of wireless communication devices, Vanessa remembered that Leo had invented the wireless communication device right after he assumed
Before leaving the Celestria region, Alex went to find Ron.By this time, the number of contaminated people had increased significantly, and they had even formed a separate organization.The visible surface was just a part of them; in reality, their numbers were much larger.Alex transferred a lot of light energy to Ron. With this, he could also help others alleviate the pain of contamination. After the apocalypse ended, as long as these people remained alive, their bodies would return to normal. If they couldn't return to normal, Alex could only think of ways to help them.Ron looked at Alex, grateful, and said, "You will surely win this battle."Alex looked at the reverent eyes of Ron's group, feeling as though he hadn't done much, yet he had become almost like a deity to them. It was a strange feeling, but Alex didn't resent it. If he received gratitude and respect, he could only try his best to live up to their expectations.They were now walking along the route to the border
