Nusa's laughter stopped abruptly, and his gaze from under the bamboo hat turned to Qin Chuan with suspicion and uncertainty.
Qin Chuan seemed to be recalling something, his tone carrying a hint of faint emotion:
"You remind me of someone, well, a distant relative. She always thinks that no one can kill her or destroy her because she has many clones and her soul is scattered among countless creations. She's always running around causing trouble."
He suddenly stopped there and didn't continue.
These nonsensical words stunned Lena and Pan Zhen, who were both in a state of rage and helplessness, and also aroused Nusa's suspicion.
Unable to contain her curiosity and anxiety, Lena asked, "What happened to that person afterward?"
Qin Chuan glanced at her before slowly continuing, "Later? Later, she felt emboldened once again and was gloating when I, following the connections of all her clones, locked them all down in an instant."
His tone was so calm, as if he were simply saying that the weather was nice today:
"Originally, based on what she did, she should have been completely destroyed, body and soul. However, since we are related, I ultimately showed mercy and did not kill her completely."
"That……?"
"I simply wiped away all her memories and drained all her strength, allowing her to start over and become a 'human' again."
Qin Chuan clapped his hands lightly, as if brushing away some dust:
"Now, she lives an ordinary but happy life, which is perhaps the best ending for her."
After speaking, Qin Chuan slowly turned his gaze to the imprisoned Nusa. His gaze was calm and unwavering, yet it sent a chill through Nusa from the depths of his soul, a chill he had never felt before!
"As for you," Qin Chuan tilted his head slightly, his tone still calm, "we have no family ties, nor any past relationship."
Nusa felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!
Qin Chuan's unspoken meaning was crystal clear: if even the being with countless clones had ended up like this, then Nusa's fate would only be worse!
"No! You can't..."
Nusa screamed in terror, wanting to activate the life-saving means Karl had given him.
But it was too late.
Qin Chuan didn't even make a move, but the invisible power that enveloped Nusa's entire body suddenly changed!
It was no longer confinement, but a sudden, incomprehensible compression and annihilation!
"Snap—"
Like the soft sound of breaking glass, Nusa's powerful clone puppet, along with its strange battle suit, metal hat, and void blade, collapsed and disintegrated instantly, turning into the most primitive particles and dissipating into the air, just like a sand sculpture being crushed by an invisible giant hand.
However, to Nusa's utter shock, the destructive power did not dissipate with the disappearance of the clone!
It seems to possess a kind of "conceptual" quality that transcends space, acting simultaneously and synchronously along a causal chain that connects all "Nusa" existences, a chain that mortals and even current superhuman technology cannot comprehend!
Inside the dark and silent main hall of Death Song Academy.
Death God Karl stood before a massive desk, upon which countless light and shadow data floated, displaying the dramatic changes taking place on the planet Lieyang.
Snow stood respectfully to one side.
Suddenly, Karl paused slightly and looked up.
Before his and Snow's eyes, space rippled slightly, and Nusa's figure appeared, staggering.
This is his true form; he has just returned from a spatial jump point and is about to report the situation to Karl.
However, before he could even speak, his face still showed a hint of frustration at the thwarted mission.
Without warning, Nusa's true form trembled violently, and his eyes instantly lost all their luster, becoming completely empty.
His body, starting from the most basic particle structure, began to collapse and dissipate silently, like sand blown away by the wind!
There was no energy explosion, no painful screams, and not even the slightest resistance.
Right before the eyes of Death Karl and his chief steward Snow, Nusa, one of the Four Horsemen of the Styx, a symbol of war and slaughter, possessing countless means of self-preservation and feared by countless civilizations, was utterly and completely annihilated.
It was as if he had never existed.
Snow stood frozen in place, his body trembling slightly beneath his hood, utterly silent.
In terms of strength, he and Nusa are evenly matched, but in terms of survival ability and the degree of unpredictability, Nusa is undoubtedly superior!
But how could someone as powerful as Nusa die so mysteriously and completely? And right in front of Death, Karl?!
Karl stood quietly in place, the shadow under his hood concealing his expression, but a very subtle disturbance appeared in the originally calm and flowing void energy around him.
He remained silent for a long time before slowly letting out a low sigh, a sigh that carried an undisguised hint of astonishment:
“Incredible. This is completely beyond the scope of the Great Clock’s analysis; even the void cannot define this power.”
"The Blazing Sun's plan has undoubtedly failed." Karl's voice quickly regained its calm, but the meaning behind it was extremely profound. "It seems we need to adjust our expectations. Next, we can only wait and see what changes Hua Ye, and the alliance between the Taotie and the Triangles, can bring."
The hall fell silent again, with only Snow's heavy, suppressed breathing remaining.
Chapter 38 Your King is Back!
The complete annihilation of Nusa did not alleviate the imminent crisis facing the Sun Star.
On the contrary, as Lena decisively used the complete Tiger Talisman to shut down the Yuan Cauldron and cut off the channel for plundering the star's core energy from Earth, the already collapsing balance of Lieyang Star was completely shattered!
In an instant, the entire planet let out a mournful cry of unbearable strain.
The earth trembled violently as if in spasm, and bottomless rifts spread at an alarming rate. Fiery lava, like the uncontrolled blood of a planet, gushed wildly from the wounds, shooting straight into the sky.
The sky was dyed a suffocating, ominous dark red by thick smoke and blazing fire, and a scorching storm, carrying ash, howled and raged, as if the death knell was tolling.
The remaining half of the planet is disintegrating at a visible rate, and the countdown to destruction has begun.
"Wu Zhao!" Lena ordered methodically, "Immediately issue orders to all departments! Transfer all civilians to the Fangtian Giant Ships in various locations! Hurry! We don't have much time!"
Her eyes reflected the burning world, filled with determination and anxiety.
However, to her surprise, although Wu Zhao's expression was as solemn as iron, he did not appear overly panicked.
"Sister Na, as early as the beginning of the Heavenly Dao Project, Commander Pan secretly issued a secret order, instructing all settlements to prepare for the evacuation of all personnel at any time."
She replied respectfully but quickly:
"People from all over the country and almost all important strategic materials should have already boarded the ship in an orderly manner. The Fangtian ship has entered the final standby state and is waiting for your highest order to set sail."
Upon hearing this, Lena abruptly turned to Pan Zhen, whose expression was complex, his brows furrowed with exhaustion, yet also hinted at a sense of relief and relief at having anticipated the worst.
Pan Zhen met her gaze, and slowly, heavily nodded, his voice hoarse and low:
"This old minister has made two preparations. If the Heavenly Dao Plan succeeds, all the better; if it fails, preserving the last spark of the Blazing Sun Civilization will be our only goal. However, this old minister never expected that this moment would come so quickly..."
His gaze swept across the ravaged land, his eyes filled with endless reluctance and sorrow for his homeland.
Upon learning that the people had already begun to evacuate, Lena felt a little relieved, but as she watched the land beneath her feet, where she was born and raised, rapidly heading towards destruction, an indescribable deep sadness and immense powerlessness still surged into her heart like a tide.
Leaving their homes and families, wandering aimlessly, their future uncertain...
All these burdens almost crushed her young shoulders.
Just then, Qin Chuan gently placed his hand on her shoulder, offering his strongest support:
"Lieyang, there is another option."
In an instant, Lena's hopeful gaze and Pan Zhen's sharp and probing eyes were all focused on his seemingly ordinary yet unfathomable figure!
Qin Chuan continued, "In recent days, my understanding of spacetime has improved. Although I am far from being able to easily reverse the entire river of time and rewrite established facts, it is still possible to relatively 'freeze' the spacetime of a local area and greatly slow down its decay and collapse process."
He pointed to the earth beneath his feet, which convulsed and trembled as if a giant beast were in agony:
“I can try to construct a spacetime singularity field to ‘freeze’ the collapse process of the core of the Sun Star at this very moment. Of course, this is not without cost; it requires a continuous and enormous amount of energy to maintain, at least a stable and continuous supply of stellar-level energy.”
His gaze swept over Lena and Pan Zhen, whose eyes had suddenly burst forth with astonishing brilliance, and offered an even more exciting possibility: "In the future, when my understanding of time and space advances further and I gain insight into its deeper mysteries, it may not be impossible to reverse time and space and restore Lieyang Star to its former completeness."
These words completely moved even someone like Pan Zhen, who had weathered countless storms and whose will had been tempered to be as firm as a rock. His mind was shaken.
He took a step forward almost without hesitation, and knelt down on one knee in front of Qin Chuan, bowing his head deeply, performing the highest level of salute and submission in the blazing sun!
"Mr. Qin Chuan! On behalf of the entire Lieyang Civilization, Pan Zhenjin expresses his deepest gratitude to you for your selfless and righteous assistance in rebuilding our civilization!"
Pan Zhen's voice was filled with unprecedented excitement and sincerity, even trembling noticeably from the overwhelming sense of hope:
"All the previous offenses, schemes, and even armed conflict were Pan Zhen's fault! It was Pan Zhen's willful actions that nearly led Lieyang into an abyss of no return! Pan Zhen hereby apologizes to you, sir! If you impose any punishment, Pan Zhen will accept it without complaint and will bear it all!"
A man's knees are worth gold, let alone a high-ranking and powerful guardian like Pan Zhen, who has been proud for thousands of years.
But he bowed willingly and without hesitation!
For the survival of the Lieyang civilization, for this last ray of hope, what do personal honor and dignity matter?
"General Pan Zhen, please rise. I understand that we made different choices based on our different positions in the past. He is our hero, and I am his enemy."
Qin Chuan readily accepted Pan Zhen's bow, then reached out and gently lifted him up.
"You have devoted yourself to the survival of the Sun, even resorting to risky and radical measures. To the people of the Sun, you are indeed a qualified guardian. But to Earth, your actions can be described as aggression and harm. Now that we are no longer enemies, let's put these old scores behind us."
His gaze swept over Lena and Pan Zhen, and he slowly extended his hand, palm up, as if cradling the future of two civilizations:
"Is the Lieyang Civilization willing to set aside past grievances, join hands with the Earth Civilization, forge an alliance, develop together, and face that so-called ultimate fear together?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Lena stepped forward and placed her warm hand firmly in Qin Chuan's, her eyes shining with determination and hope, and said resolutely:
"I'm willing! Lieyang is willing! This is the best future!"
Pan Zhen also took a deep breath, nodded solemnly, and said with the solemnity of a vow:
"The Lieyang Civilization wishes to form an eternal alliance with Earth Civilization, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses, sharing weal and woe, and advancing and retreating together!"
Thus, the 1,400-year-long feud between Earth and the Sun finally came to a complete end, turning hostility into friendship.
What followed was a natural progression.
Under Qin Chuan's guidance, Pan Zhen poured his vast and boundless stellar-level energy into the profound and stable magic array that Qin Chuan had drawn using the laws of space and time.
Qin Chuan stood at the core of the array, using his exquisite and miraculous control over spacetime to transform this immense energy, enough to illuminate the starry sea, into invisible yet incredibly resilient spacetime shackles, deeply embedding them into the turbulent core of the Blazing Sun Star.
The scene of the raging eruption and the earth cracking seemed to have been paused. Although the planet was still broken and devastated, the destructive and irreversible trend of collapse was forcibly contained and frozen!
The planet Lieyang was frozen in its final moments before destruction!
All the Sun People who evacuated to the giant ship Fangtian clearly felt this miraculous change; the despairing tremors of the planet ceased.
The immense joy and unbelievable cheers of survivors instantly shattered the previous silence and fear, resounding throughout the giant ship.
The crisis on Lieyang Star has finally been temporarily resolved.
