Looking at the girl with sincere eyes under the moonlight, Anvis sighed softly.
He stood up slowly, walked to Claire's side, and looked at the vast land beneath the towering terrace of the Silver Palace, shrouded in the darkness of night.
"So, where is my family? Where are my friends? Where are the people I hold dear?"
"……will die."
The girl's voice was still ethereal, but its meaning was particularly cold and ruthless.
"Not just them, but all people, and the entire human civilization will perish in darkness and despair."
"Perhaps you want to take one or several beings you value with you to the future, but the power contained in the time ball is limited. The more beings you bring, the stronger the power, and the length of time you can travel is limited.
will be shorter.
Taking your sister as an example, assuming you only take her with you to the future, the furthest time you can cross will be reduced by at least 40%. If so, I am not sure that you will be able to reach the end of the dark age.
By the way, you don’t have to think about me, my form of existence is quite special and I have my own way to travel to the future.”
"..."
Listening to Claire's words, Avis fell into silence again.
Then, facing the endless darkness ahead, the young man with black hair and black eyes suddenly smiled.
In fact, he had no choice from beginning to end.
It is nothing more than observing and recording the way people in this world struggle and resist when facing the dark doomsday, and then summing up the experience and returning to the original timeline to carry out more fully prepared resistance and struggle.
Claire's suggestions only gave him an extra layer of insurance against complete failure.
"It seems that I have no choice..."
The young man's voice was very soft, floating in the night wind, as if he was mumbling to himself.
"Yes, you have no choice."
Not knowing the decision in Anvis's heart, Claire nodded, then, she looked at the purple moon in the night sky and said casually.
"Did you know that millions of years ago, the Purple Moon Amys of the High Elves era was not like this? The butterfly-shaped purple moon sea was not originally on that side."
"Yeah, of course I know."
Looking up at the high night sky, Anvis smiled.
"Do you still remember the little adventure we had in the first class at the Pamir Academy of Mysteries and Relics? In the historical fragment scene we participated in, I also saw the Purple Moon of the High Elf Era.
Millions of years have passed, and even Amys hanging in the sky is no longer what it used to be. The existences living on this land have also changed from the ancient high elves to today's humans."
As he said that, Anvis seemed to suddenly remember something and changed the topic.
"You know, besides me, other ninth-level people in this world are also planning to break through to legend.
For example, the Marquises of the Empire used war turmoil as a cover and ritual condition a long time ago to secretly carry out a large-scale plan. Behind this, there were even traces of the intervention of ninth-level beings from the Federation.
In your opinion, will they succeed?"
"You should know that this is a meaningless move."
Claire shook her head.
"With incomplete rules, there is no way to break through to legend in this world unless they can make the rules complete again. But even if they do, you know what that will mean."
"So, is there another possibility?"
Staring at the distant sky, from Anvis's perspective of fate, the originally peaceful web of fate on the continent suddenly began to surge violently, and the fate lines of countless people were simultaneously involved in the whirlpool of fate.
"What if they took refuge in a certain dark existence?"
As Anvis finished speaking, as if to prove something, the originally dark sky in the distance suddenly lit up with multiple huge magical lights that shot straight into the sky.
However, the color of this magical glow is an extremely ominous blood-red color!
"Take refuge?"
The side of her face was illuminated by the dark red light in the distant sky. The half-elf girl was stunned for a moment, her ice-blue eyes blinked, and her expression looked a little more confused.
"What do you do when your breakfast comes to you after you wake up?"
"Breakfast..."
Anvis looked at this scene noncommittally and did not comment on anything.
There is no fool who can break through to the ninth level. It is impossible for the marquis to do something that is destined to death.
As for being deceived... it is indeed possible, but to say that ninth-level beings don't know anything is to underestimate the world.
Even if they don't know the truth of ancient secrets, they will definitely grasp clues related to it during the exploration process. No matter how cautious you are about such a major matter that involves your own future and life.
…
At this moment, unlike the two people on the top floor of the Silver Palace, this shocking incident has touched everyone's nerves.
Ross Territory, Cedar Bastion, Triumph City... Tonight, these areas were all illuminated by huge magic arrays with a diameter that covered the entire surface of the earth. Bright red and ominous mana streams were flowing chaotically from them.
In many prosperous main cities and villages, countless indigenous people and players were alarmed by this huge change, stopped what they were doing, and looked blankly at the sky.
If a spellcaster looks down at the entire empire territory from a very high position, he will be able to find that there seems to be some special and mysterious connection between the positions of these giant magic circles distributed throughout the empire.
And all the locations where the magic circle is arranged have one characteristic: they have all been battlefields that have experienced fierce and bloody battles, or they have been cities that have suffered massacres in the war!
With the movement of the magic circle, the sky-high blood energy and unconscious soul fragments suddenly appeared, and then were swept in by the power of the magic circle.
At the same time, under the influence of the power of the magic circle, the space in the surrounding area suddenly distorted like ripples. The strange field began to rapidly expand to the surroundings with the magic circle as the core.
In these areas, the dream world and the material plane present a special overlapping state, and there are even strange beings in dreams appearing and wandering in these areas.
If Anvis were here, he would be surprised to find that the area expanded by these magic circles is the [overlapping area] that spread in the Yaer continent in the previous life!
Some professionals who were alerted by this incident tried to destroy the magic circle, but were immediately killed by the blood armor guardian who came from nowhere. The blood and soul also merged into the magic circle, shocking others.
Dare to act rashly.
At this time, in the Elfenian Territory near the imperial capital, in an ancient underground cave that seemed to be naturally formed, a group of incarnations of the imperial marquises had gathered here.
In front of them, a huge dark pyramid was located in the center of the cave. At this moment, the surface of the pyramid was glowing with dark red and chaotic light, flickering rhythmically like a heart.
