The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 886 - 568: Collapse and Disintegration

Useless.

The elite troops on this battlefield were positioned at the forefront. These powerful units, originally used to repel Night Watcher raids, were reduced to molten slag by the first dive of the Void Manta Rays.

These Void creatures, with wingspans exceeding twenty meters, dove down from the clouds, their translucent membrane wings glimmering with the blue light of spatial rifts at the edges. Below their flight path, the Ratman Heavy Armor Legion was like wheat being harvested by an invisible scythe, and where they were cut, their crystallized flesh sprayed purple starlight.

The spiritual waves spread from their concealed mouths, and these mental impacts imbued with the Power of the Void were absolute predators to these long-corrupted rats.

Resistance?

No, they had no room for resistance at all, not even the strength to retaliate.

"Where are those damned followers? Where are those damned muscle brutes?"

A Rat General stood on a high platform, shrieking madly as he watched the distant decimated frontlines.

"Gone, they ran away!"

Even faster than the cowardly rats retreating.

Even the most foolish Rat General knew they had been abandoned and deceived.

"For the Evil Rat!" The death squad captain's roar was suddenly cut short. Under him, the spider-like Void Combat Beast leaped five meters before the Crystal Scorpion's tail stinger pierced through the air. The Purple Crystal Poison quickly infected him, and his formidable strength was advancing him toward a Void Combat Beast.

"The Evil Rat watches over us! For everything, for a greater race!"

The High Priest of the Evil Rat stood at the highest point on the battlefield, atop a platform constructed of scrap metal and wood, and initiated the grandest ritual.

To the north of the plain, thirteen green pillars of fire suddenly ignited. Within the Summoning Array of the Mutated Clan, three Corrupted Minotaur Demons tore open the spatial veil.

Their horn-bound chains dripped with mucus. Yet in the Void Combat Beast formation, six-legged Crystal Behemoths stood up and directly refracted the demons with prisms on their chests—the instant the purple light swept over them, the Minotaurs' flesh melted like wax, revealing crystal clusters madly proliferating on their bones.

The lower-level demons were completely outmatched, while the Void Power Warriors traversed the battlefield.

The Plague Clan's ultimate trump card exploded on the western side of the battlefield. As the rotting chanted the detonation of two hundred infected corpses, an ink-green plague cloud engulfed an entire Void Combat Beast.

This time they finally achieved some results, with the extremely potent plague greatly corroding the blood and surface of Void Crystals. Many Combat Beasts were damaged to their core and began to crumble on the spot.

The rats traversing the battlefield and observing the battle situation noticed this, finally finding a weakness in the Void.

However, it was too late.

"Crush them! Crush them all!" The Engineering Master screamed, activating the underground drills.

Six garbage drilling machines, built from Magic Power and various discarded machinery, burst from the earth, only to collide head-on with the crystal surge rushing from the Earth's core—crystallized vines wrapped around the iron behemoths, and the drills, with a teeth-grinding screech, turned into blooming metal flowers, the Ratman pilots inside crystallizing mid-air.

The power of the Void was rapidly solidifying and spreading in this region, and wherever it passed, the ground ignited with a green hue as the Void eroded.

The Legion of Void Power Warriors finally descended. These Purple Crystal Giants, ranging from several to over ten meters tall, caused tremors with each step.

Their crystal heads emitted spiritual pulse waves, a force utterly irresistible to the rats.

The formation of Evil Rat Guard squares fell en masse under these pulses, small crystal prisms protruding from their orifices.

A Rat General clad in Elite Blessed Armor tried to slash the giant's ankle but was casually kicked aside, riddled by shattered crystals.

The plains began to be dyed by the Void.

The Protective Array, jointly chanted by the Ratman Priests, vaporized the instant the Void mycelium spread over it.

The Purple Crystal Wilderness expanded at a rate of one hundred meters per second, converting any flesh it touched into semi-transparent crystal. The charging Armored Rat Demons had front claws of iron blades, but their hind legs had already turned into eternally frozen running sculptures.

As the last three Rat bat squadrons dragged flames and plummeted to the crystallized earth, a purple dawn rose on the eastern horizon.

And this, was merely one of the battlefields in the southwestern front.

The Void creatures attacking here were only one-third of those spread from the Gate of Void.

By noon, the seventh legion of the Ratman Empire was no more. The plains, once covered in rusty iron and corpses, now stood as an endless crystal forest.

Countless Ratmen, maintaining their last moments of struggle before death, became the eternal trophies of this Purple realm. The wind passing through the crystal clusters emitted a hum, like the Void's final mockery toward the defeated.

When creatures from all worlds walk here, these trophies will become nightmares, having been crystallized and infected by the Void.

They have already become part of the Void.

"The Void channel has been cut off. Our forces are intensifying efforts to contain their further spread."

A Combat Master reported to Kana about the current situation, but his face still could not hide his concern.

"Close the net, don't let these Void creatures escape. Destroy them all in this purple forest, let it become their grave, just like these invading rats.

Intruders deserve to die together."

Kana's words were indifferent, yet this calm and emotionless tone rather stabilized the mood of the Combat Master in front of him.

"Understood!"

The Night Watchers, who had been observing and preparing on the outskirts, began to take action.

"It's our turn to move, let these Void creatures experience our might, destroy them!"

"Come on, we can do it."

"Don't let the recent battle crush our spirit; compared to the rats, these Void creatures are our true enemies."

"Charge!"

The Night Watchers of each unit were inspired, beginning to clear out the spreading Void creatures.

It was visible that all combat members were from the United Army of Night Watchers. Other soldiers were positioned elsewhere to establish defense lines and outposts, not permitted to go to the front lines to battle the Void creatures.

Otherwise, they would be as defenseless as these rats, utterly powerless.

Kana stood at the highest point on the battlefield, where a Rat Priest once stood, now a viewing platform constructed from blood and metal.

The entire crystallized battlefield was in full view.

Behind Kana stood important commanders of the Night Watchers and some department members.

Among them were many members who had never truly witnessed the vast power the Void displayed on a large battlefield.

"Are these Void creatures' mental impacts so deadly to ordinary creatures?" A Combat Master looked on in dismay.

The Tower Master was also silently watching the scene, where the Abyss and Demons seemed insignificant before these Void creatures.

Red Serpent spoke with a calm face: "In other words, only those Night Watchers capable of resisting these mental impacts in terms of spirit can avoid being crushed in battles against the Void."

The blessing bestowed upon the Night Watchers, granting them immense physical strength, allows them not to fall behind these tireless Void creatures."

When he learned of the blessings of the Night Watchers, Red Serpent originally thought these beings, born for war, were a terrifying force.

When he finally saw the scenes of the Void wreaking havoc in the world, he realized that Night Watchers, whom he had once regarded as mere weapons of war, were the only ones qualified to resist.

"It seems those old things up in the sky should make a choice; this scene is... truly shocking."

Wolf Lord murmured to himself.

Not to mention the Combat Masters and Tactical Masters, those once-less-than-Legendary "ordinary people."

Even these already Legendary strong ones, who had glimpsed the existence of the Void from beyond the world, were shocked by the power of the Void truly rampaging in the world.

Alyris looked at Kana.

An inquiring gaze in her eyes.

Is this one of your purposes too?

Kana just smiled.

Perhaps it is.
