Great, we're doomed now!

Would you join "us"?

Without sound or words, pure thoughts assaulted Ye Shou's mind. His conversation with the evil god caused numerous scenes of disaster to flash through his mind, as if they were about to tear his soul apart.

And this can't even be considered an attack!

"..."

How should I answer this?

Resistance is pointless. Not to mention that the giants have already weakened and declined without human support, even if they could gather light, would they necessarily be able to defeat the darkness before them?

Those golden rays deep in my memory are nothing but beautiful fantasies...

Survival is the fundamental pursuit of all living things, and for that, anything is permissible... Yes, fortunately, he already has a new entry, which allows him to embark on a completely different path...

He had absolutely no reason to face such a terrifying opponent!

He wasn't a saint or a savior; he was just a human being with normal emotions and desires, and he could feel fear too... so he should be allowed to escape.

I've done enough! But there are some things that are simply impossible to do no matter how hard you try!

Just take a step back, just nod, just...

Would you join "us"?

"I……"

Scenes from the past flashed before my eyes, and all my efforts vanished like smoke in this moment—

"roll!!!"

The timer on his chest pierced the darkness, shooting out a bright white light that made his eyes squint slightly.

There are many reasons to give up, but only one to persevere... Ha, you would never understand.

He was never a savior, but he was also never anyone's slave!

For oneself, for loved ones, for freedom, challenging the gods is just a common thing!

Ye Shou shouted, exerting all his strength to summon the light within his body, even though it had long been swallowed up by the surging darkness. But this was like human courage—

Whenever you take this step, a response is inevitable!

- Om!

A golden radiance began to spread from his chest, and silver-white light banished the shadows. Skipping the normal process, he forcibly transformed into the form of a giant of light, appearing particularly dazzling in the boundless darkness.

【…】

Gatanothor stared at the tiny light with disgust, and with the slightest movement of his body, a massive tide swept over him.

But at that very moment, a beam of intense light pierced through space from beyond the heavens, descending and enveloping Ye Shou. In an instant, everything around him blurred and blurred—

call!

Opening his eyes again, Ye Shou suddenly turned around, his body instinctively adopting a fighting stance, and even releasing ripples that flashed like lightning.

But looking around, it was no longer the despairing environment from before; instead, it was still in the sky, seemingly without having moved at all.

Looking again, Tiga and Camilla were also there, and Tiga was channeling light power into him, seemingly expending a great deal of energy. The timer on his chest began to flicker erratically.

As for the Dark Trio, they were ready for battle—but they were heading towards Ye Shou.

"This……"

"Don't you know what just happened?"

Hitler exclaimed dramatically, "You were radiating a dangerous killing intent, your eyes were bloodshot, and the red beam of your timer was practically overflowing. You looked like you were in a state of extreme madness... even darker than us!"

I'm really afraid you'll just start a massacre!

"..." Ye Shou was speechless, but he did not doubt Hitler's words.

Judging from Camilla's reaction, the danger just now was probably even greater.

He quickly realized that the light that had drawn his consciousness out must have been Tiga's help, and he couldn't help but look at him gratefully.

Thank you.

"It's good that you're alright." Tiga nodded slightly, then let out a long sigh of relief after withdrawing his beam.

"It seems that using the power of darkness in the face of the 'Heart of Evil' is suicide. The same attribute but a vastly different magnitude means it can only be a one-sided crushing defeat..."

Ye Shouxin reminded them with lingering fear, "You should also be careful."

The trio looked at each other in silence: they had actually sensed it too.

It's fortunate that they only turned evil and weren't corrupted and assimilated by Gatanothor like Golza and Melba. Otherwise, they would probably have to submit to Gatanothor, let alone fight against him.

(The bodies of ancient monsters usually have various spots and pits, which are signs of corrosion. This includes the later Gijera, whose roots were too deep and was corrupted by Gatan. In addition to being powerful, the evil god is also a source of pollution and has the ability to command.)

"No way...you guys are really planning to fight that thing?"

Hitler exclaimed in astonishment, pointing to the abyss below that devoured everything.

Unlike Ye Shou, he didn't have any actual experience of confrontation and didn't know Gatanothor's true power. But even from a distance, the purple giant didn't feel that this was an opponent he could fight.

What a joke! They couldn't even handle the existence of all the giants, and they think they can defeat it with just a few people?

"This planet is finished. There's no need for us to fight an enemy we can't possibly defeat for the sake of a lifeless planet!"

Faced with Hitler's words, everyone fell silent. The purple giant, seeing the heavy atmosphere, was puzzled. Looking around, he realized that not only Ye Shou and Tiga, but also his companions Camilla and Darramb were silent.

"No way! Hey, I won't do that!" Hitler yelled. "I'd rather wander the universe!"

"There's no way we can win... I don't understand."

Ye Shou stared at the abyss with lingering fear, as if he could still hear inexplicable sneers and noisy whispers.

It's impossible to say he's completely fearless; he knows very well how slim his chances of winning are, but some battles are unavoidable.

"All I know is that if I leave now, the Earth will truly become a den of demons... Will it be able to give rise to normal life 30 million years from now?"

Originally, after the extinction of the ancient world, there should have been violent crustal movements that cleansed everything and rebuilt the surface environment, and Gatanothor would have fallen into a deep sleep... But after what just happened, Ye Shou no longer dared to hope for such a development.

How Gatanothor will act is not something that can be controlled by external factors!

No one can guarantee that it won't suddenly change its mind, and the only way to ensure that things will continue as normal "30 million years from now," thus encompassing all possibilities, is—

"fighting!"

Ye Shou clenched his fist: "I choose to fight!"

"you--"

"If this giant creature were to rule the Earth, where would we go?"

Camilla interrupted Hitler, letting out a cold snort: "This planet belongs to me... My past is buried here, and therefore I will not allow anyone else to touch it!"

"Big Sister..."

"He's a formidable opponent, worth my full effort!"

“Even you…” Hitler stared in disbelief, looking left and right, then glancing fearfully at the ground, before finally gritting his teeth—

"...I still want to go to space."

"Suit yourself." Camilla glanced at him, then turned her back and refused to look at him again.

Hitler finished speaking but did not act. After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose to stay where he was—Darram patted him on the shoulder.

"This isn't the first time we've experienced a hopeless battle; rather, after so long, we've finally seen the true form of evil—"

The blackness on Darram was banished, and the giant of light, as if possessed by crimson flames, reappeared.

"I am the champion! All the cheers will return!"

Before the words were even finished, and before everyone had even made up their minds, the storm of crimson flames had already descended from the sky!

"Darram!"

Ye Shou and the others reacted immediately, and Hitler followed without hesitation, looking disgusted.

boom!

A massive fireball erupted within the abyss, whipping up towering flames and arcs of electricity, relentlessly bombarding the area. However, aside from being caught off guard and forced to advance a short distance at the beginning, it quickly unleashed a powerful counterattack, effortlessly shattering the flames and sending a figure flying out.

"madness!"

The long whip lashed out, skillfully catching Darramb and flinging the red giant into the air.

"Get back now—ugh!"

A tentacle shot out from the abyss with lightning speed, so fast that even the giant couldn't react in time, and it sent Camilla flying!

"Boss!"

"just!"

Tiga and Hitler exchanged a glance, then simultaneously crossed their hands in front of them, one rotating upwards and the other downwards. Ultimately, thick rays and condensed energy blasts shot out together, accurately striking the tentacles and exploding into blazing sparks.

"Did it... succeed?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shougang summoned the Sword of Baye Li without hesitation.

--call out!

The tentacles leaped into the air, leaving afterimages as they lashed out at the two giants, but were blocked by the golden longsword.

The tentacles circled around, and Ye Shou felt an immense force pulling at Baye Li. If he loosened his grip, Baye Li would slip away. He immediately exerted his strength, and ripples spread across the sword. A dazzling golden light exploded out, scorching the tentacles, which quickly released their grip, leaving behind a trail of green smoke.

"No way, it's just a tentacle... That should be its main attack organ, right?" Hitler looked at Ye Shou hopefully. He didn't know why he was asking for help from someone he didn't know very well, but he subconsciously felt that Ye Shou would know.

Ye Shou remained silent as expected—a sign that he knew the truth, but the answer was not pleasant.

In the original story, Daigo was flawless in his mindset during the final battle, and his power was enough to quickly defeat any monster he had encountered before, which can be said to be his peak condition... but he still had to fight a tentacle for a long time.

Although I knew the evil god was powerful, I only understood it more clearly after fighting him...

call out!

call out!

call out!

Five tentacles emerged from the darkness, each shooting towards Ye Shou and the others—it even deliberately matched the corresponding number!

"You absolutely cannot win this way!"
