An even more ferocious power has descended!

The air before me was no longer shattered, but instead directly annihilated, creating a hole leading to a deeper void.

The end of the hole was no longer a monotonous darkness illuminated by purple flames.

Instead, one can vaguely see distorted and bizarre architectural outlines and an atmosphere full of malice.

This might actually be the shelter's real hideout!

But Night Child didn't care.

"Ha, well hidden, too bad it's useless."

The silver-haired girl held that terrifying orb of 400,000 units of spiritual energy in her hand.

Like a thug wielding a demolition hammer, he stepped into a new void rift.

Night Child's voice was filled with absolute confidence and anticipation, like a villain wielding an axe to smash open a door and enjoy the heroine's wailing.

That's not actually the case.

She's the embodiment of justice this time!

You run, I chase; you can't escape even with wings!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The leader of the sanctuary led Byron into the “true sanctuary” that he and his many companions had painstakingly built, which they considered the final bulwark.

"You're back..."

Nothing gives the shelter leader a greater sense of security than the peace and tranquility of the world!

So quiet, so monotonous, so unchanging.

It was practically born to reject all change!

As long as he stays here, nothing will change, and no disaster can affect him.

Survival was his primary obsession.

It doesn't matter if the source of the disaster comes up.

As long as you avoid it, as long as you dodge it, you will definitely find a glimmer of hope.

In the eyes of the shelter leader, it would be foolish to confront a monster destined to destroy everything.

The voice in his head can no longer seduce him!

The shelter leader threw the unconscious Byron to the ground.

He needs to calm down now, to banish the panic from his mind, so that he can think about his next plan.

The primal fire growing within Byron has reached its full potential.

It was time for him to dedicate himself.

The shelter leader had originally intended to give him a ticket to escape the disaster.

It's a pity he didn't know how to seize the opportunity.

People with different principles cannot work together.

Since that's the case, we can only burn him to ashes to complete the construction of the shelter!

By then, the shelter space will be completely independent and no longer dependent on any main space.

Even if the original world is destroyed, it will surely survive.

However, the next second...

The false sense of security provided by shelter spaces hasn't even warmed their hearts yet.

A suffocatingly terrifying pressure and a blinding white light of destruction followed immediately.

They forcefully poured into this absolutely forbidden space!

The barriers of space vanished silently like fragile soap bubbles, revealing the churning nothingness behind them.

The silver-haired girl, holding the miniature sun-like orb of destructive light in her hand, stepped inside with an almost godlike indifference and curiosity.

Her terrifying pressure of 40,000 units of spiritual power instantly engulfed the entire shelter space like a tangible tsunami.

The omnipresent aura of "source fire" in the air shrank and dimmed.

The shelter leader's brain went blank on the spot.

This is unreasonable.

That's impossible!

No one can enter this world without his permission!

Why is that?!

"Oh? What a strange place."

Night Child tilted his head curiously, his violet eyes sweeping over the distorted land.

What comes into view is an indescribable architectural silhouette.

They seem to be built from solidified nightmares.

Crooked and twisted, it exudes a nauseating, sticky malice.

The space itself was filled with a kind of filthy resentment, as if it were soaked in countless dark sediments.

"Pfft..."

A scornful laugh shattered the deathly silence.

Night Child had already guessed some things.

This is probably the ultimate result of the many bad things the shelter has ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ done in the shadows all this time.

It doesn't look like the world of the living, nor is it a place where humans can survive.

Within the area swept by his mental energy, Night Child also sensed some repulsive auras.

They are probably the core members of those shelters who like to hide.

They were hiding in this filthy place all along?

That's totally in line with their style!

"Hahahaha! This is the'shelter' you've painstakingly built over the years, hiding like rats in a sewer?"

Night Child's voice was clear and crisp, yet it carried a chilling coldness that echoed in the oppressive space.

Every word is piercing to the heart.

Every word struck the leader's heart like a whip.

"I thought it was some amazing plan, like you were going to create a new world or something."

Night Child's tone was full of disappointment.

"After all that, isn't this just a giant garbage dump?"

"Tsk tsk, you guys really know your place, you know what kind of people you are, even the'shelter' you created is so 'well-matched'!"

Logically speaking, villains die from talking too much.

But Ye Tong isn't a villain.

Now that we've reached the enemy's doorstep, we have to unleash a torrent of trash talk and taunt them.

First destroy their spirit, then take their lives!

One combo is just right!

Night Child ignored Byron, who was lying unconscious on the ground, and focused his gaze on the shelter leader, whose body was as stiff as a stone statue.

"The leader of the shelter? You don't seem like much. Do you have any last words?"

The voice in the shelter leader's mind was still screaming.

【Accept me! Hand it over to me! It is not yet powerful enough to be unstoppable; destroy it before it grows strong enough! Destroy it! Do not run away, coward!】

"Shut up! You're crazy!"

Under immense pressure, the shelter leader's breathing seemed about to stop.

He could feel that the world barrier he considered absolutely safe was as fragile as a paper toy in the face of the being that had descended at this moment.

The destructive aura emanating from the orb of light floating in her palm was enough to destroy everything he had painstakingly built!

No!

There is still hope!

This world was created based on his power.

You could say he was the heart of the shelter.

Now he is the master of the sanctuary, wielding unparalleled power. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Long ago, he abandoned his human body and merged into the world of the sanctuary.

The purpose is to break free from one's own limitations and pursue a greater sense of security.

As the Sanctuary world grew stronger, so did his power.

Logically speaking, even if he openly and legitimately occupies land and reigns supreme in the outside world, even the strongest superhuman in the Dragon Kingdom would be powerless against him.

After all, they can always escape back to their safe house.

You can even forcibly drag enemies into the Sanctuary world to fight on their home turf.

The leader of the shelter always considered himself to be one of the strongest individuals.

But in some ways he is not strong enough.

At least they are not strong enough to ignore the calamity of the equality of all beings.

From birth, he was an anomaly, someone whose will to survive outweighed all other desires.

Ever since the superpower within him transmitted "fragments" representing the truth, and the awakening of an external consciousness, his life has been ruined.

"I will live! I will drive you out! Destroyer of the world!"
