In front of the throne.

The two corpses he had just killed, lying before the throne, glowed red.

Sam's expression changed for the first time.

He understood the other party's intention almost instantly—self-destruction!

These shadow soldiers came with the determination to die from the very beginning.

Their mission was not assassination.

Rather—mutual destruction!

"quick--!"

Sam was about to roar out, but it was too late.

He didn't even have time to think; he could only turn around abruptly and open his arms.

"boom--!!!!!"

The next second, dozens of violent energy sources detonated simultaneously!

The blinding white light instantly engulfed the entire palace, obliterating everyone present.

The terrifying shockwave, like a world-ending wave, tore the magnificent palace to pieces with overwhelming force.

The solid stone pillars turned to dust, and the magnificent dome evaporated instantly.

In that dazzling white light.

The audience only saw the guards who had just been fighting bravely, along with their proud Firefly mechs, being torn apart and devoured in an instant...

Life and death do not know.

The entire sky was reduced to a desolate, pure white.

The clamor and cheers outside the canopy also came to an abrupt end.

The universe fell silent once again.

All the viewers stared blankly at the white screen, their minds completely blank.

What happened...?

The dazzling white light lasted for more than ten seconds before slowly dissipating.

And when the sky became clear again.

The once magnificent palace, a symbol of Grammer's supreme power, is now completely reduced to ruins.

Broken walls and charred stones.

And... scattered, broken mech wreckage.

Those guards who had fought bravely not long ago, and were at the epicenter of the self-destruction, now lay silently in the ruins.

The Firefly mechs on the guards, who were on the verge of exploding, were shattered and flickering with dangerous electric sparks. They too fell into a coma, their fate unknown.

Isolde was also thrown by the shockwave from the explosion, crashing against the wall and falling to the ground a short distance away.

Her mech was also badly damaged, and blood was spilling from the corner of her mouth.

But at this moment, she wasn't concerned about herself.

She struggled to lift her head from the ground and reached her hand toward the throne.

"Your Majesty... Empress..."

Blood gushed from the gaps in her mech suit, staining the ground beneath her red.

Isolde struggled to get up, but eventually her arms fell limply to her sides.

The entire hall was eerily silent.

And in the very center of the ruins.

Everything except the throne... has long since turned to ashes.

Before the throne, a figure stood there as straight as a javelin.

...It's Sam.

He maintained his outstretched arms, like an insurmountable wall.

To prevent the Shadow Soldiers from self-destructing and harming Titania, he used almost all the energy in his energy shield to protect them.

As a result, his black combat suit became even darker and more tattered due to the blood stains.

The exposed skin was covered with hideous and horrific wounds, some so deep that the bone was visible.

Fresh blood dripped continuously from his body, pooling into a small puddle at his feet.

He was like a statue that stood firm amidst flames and bloodshed, tragic and magnificent.

"..."

The universe beyond the celestial canopy was deathly silent.

Everyone was so shocked by the horrific scene before them that they were speechless.

【Sam, Sam…】

No...no...please don't!!!

No! Why is this happening! Why?!

[Lu Li, Isolde, the Royal Guard...]

[Damn it! They were just trying to protect the Queen and fulfill her wish, what did they do wrong! Those bastards in the Republic Parliament! I'm going to kill you all!]

It's happening again... Can't Lu Li just have a happy ending? My heart is breaking, sob sob sob...

[Waaaaah... He... He's still standing...]

He used almost all his energy to protect the Queen... and he himself... he practically shielded himself from all the explosions...

My heart... it hurts so much... it hurts so much I can hardly breathe...

[It's a lie...this must be a lie...]

Seeing this horrific scene...

Countless viewers covered their mouths, tears streaming down their faces uncontrollably.

Luofu, Changletian.

On March 7th, she stared blankly at the screen, wanting to say something but unable to utter a sound.

Xing murmured, "How...could this be..."

Walter took off his glasses, wearily pinched the bridge of his nose, and let out a heavy sigh.

This is war.

It's either you die or I die... There are never any real winners.

Under the eaves.

Kafka's playful expression had completely vanished, and she stared intently at the image on the sky, her face expressionless.

The temperature of the air around Jingliu plummeted, and a thin layer of frost began to spread outwards from her center.

Her knuckles were white as she gripped the sword hilt, and the veins on the back of her hand bulged, revealing the turmoil in her heart.

Bai Heng bit her lip hard to stop herself from crying out loud, but her body was trembling uncontrollably, and tears had already blurred her vision.

"Fool……"

"You...big idiot..."

It's happening again...

Every single time... it's the same.

To protect others, they did not hesitate to put themselves in a life-or-death situation.

Lu Li stared silently at the blood-soaked yet still upright figure in the sky.

He wanted to tell himself that it wasn't him, that it was just a past life, and it had nothing to do with him.

but……

Lu Li looked at the blood-soaked figure in the sky and sighed inwardly.

What a... idiot.

……

And in the attic not far away.

Liu Ying stared blankly at the figure on the screen, whose face was pale but who was still protecting others with his life.

That face, that blood-stained and tattered combat suit...

The previously vague memories gradually became clearer.

Then... they slowly overlapped.

Really are……

"No……"

"This can't be real..."

Liu Ying bit her lower lip tightly, completely unaware of the metallic sweetness spreading in her mouth.

Because her heart... was aching so badly it felt like it was about to break.

……

In the sky.

The arriving cavalry and royal guards entered the ruined palace and began rescuing the remaining royal guard members.

But... no one dared to go up to the throne to check on Titania's condition.

Correct.

It's not that it's impossible.

Rather... they dare not.

because……

……

At the center of the palace ruins.

On the throne.

The explosion happened in an instant, and Titania had no time to react.

All she saw was Sam suddenly turn around and face her.

Immediately afterward, the energy barrier rose up again to envelop her, accompanied by a dazzling white light and a loud bang.

Then the white light and the sound of the explosion dissipated.

She... was completely unharmed.

but……

Titania stared blankly ahead at the blood-covered figure outside the blue energy shield, arms outstretched, facing her.

"Lu...Qing?"
