Liming nodded, and this time he started to escape several times in a row. In particular, he deliberately passed by places where there were cameras on the street or outside some buildings, and was "accidentally" captured in a miserable state.
Finally, after Dawn escaped to a certain place, a dazzling light emanated from him, as if the sun appeared here and dawn came early.
A black figure, carrying a powerful black force, had its accumulated power actually eroded away by such strong light.
This revealed the true face of the man in black and prevented him from launching his next attack. Now, there was no need to attack anymore because the man in the golden light was no longer there. What remained there was just a virtual body that would disappear once its power was exhausted.
The man in black, who looked extremely like the Dark King, looked at the golden light with a calm gaze, like an emotionless robot. No, to be more precise, he was as indifferent as an emotionless dead soldier!
If the person escapes, we can't track his direction, so we can only give up.
The man in black looked at the light with his deep eyes, but they did not reflect any golden light and were still extremely deep. He turned around and disappeared into the darkness again, just as invisible and traceless as when he came.
The moment the man in black disappeared, his black mist and black hair also disappeared. However, the darkness between heaven and earth followed him like a shadow, and the man in black did not notice it at all.
The direction the man in black went back was the same direction the Osgers had just gone.
"Escaped."
When they returned to Osger, the man in black's voice reported back indifferently without any emotion.
"Actually ran away?"
Osger frowned unhappily, but he did not get entangled in anger at this moment.
"Let's go. All believers of light can only flee. That's enough."
141. That Person
Is this the first apostle?
In the dark sky, the dawn that turned into night followed Osger and his companions like a shadow. He clearly saw that the burly man seemed to be directing the actions of the SS-level man in black who was pretending to be him. He remembered it after thinking about it.
This person was the one he had gone to the Hero Association to inquire about information about before, and then a senior executive of the Hero Association told him that the First Apostle was from another city and was one of the top ten criminals.
The strength of this man in black is only super S level. It’s not that Dawn wants to find a fake, but his strength is not too weak. The identity of the person who can give orders to him can be imagined.
Liming did not take any action, but just kept updating. He had to find out the existence of the mastermind behind the scenes. As long as he found the person who could copy his dark power, the trouble in this city could be settled immediately.
"You stay here and I'll let you know about the arrangements later."
Osger said a word without even looking back, and left here with his wife, and as they left, there was a large shadow of the night, and the man who was very similar to the Dark King was also being tracked by the night, and no one could get rid of it.
Just as Dawn followed Osger to their base, somewhere in the distance was the place where Dawn had just burst out with the power of light, illuminating with infinite golden light.
At this time, the golden light that illuminated the world had faded, but the golden man in that golden light had not disappeared.
After the golden light completely faded, a bright clone of Dawn appeared solidly.
Leaving a dark mark on the super S-class man in black who was impersonating him, his original body followed Osger and the other man as they left. Now the light condensed into an avatar, and it was going back to the Hero Association to investigate the situation.
Even if the man behind this is caught now, this city will still need a major cleansing.
……
"Hey, look what we captured here!?"
A group of people were investigating the battle scene between Dawn and the black-clad assassin, seemingly looking for some clues.
At this moment, one person called the others over, and under their puzzled gazes, he excitedly opened a video on a laptop computer.
The video originally showed only some thieves, robbers, and gang fights. However, after a faint muffled sound, the people in the video looked at something nearby, their expressions gradually became panicked, and they began to flee in panic.
After that, there was no trace of the person in the video, but there was a faint golden light flashing. Soon, a ragged and dishevelled man with a mask on the upper half of his face appeared in the video. This person was the believer of light who appeared at the princess' election venue!
Although it only appeared for a moment, it was enough to conclude that he was being hunted. Even with the power of light, it was so difficult for him to escape.
"Will it be the king?"
These people were extremely excited when watching the video.
"He dares to hunt down and play with even the subordinates of the Goddess of Light so casually. He is undoubtedly the king!"
"The believers of light were hunted down like this, and the Goddess of Light never showed up. Does this mean that the Goddess of Light is really not here? The Apostles did not lie to us!?"
"Now that the Goddess of Light is gone, this city must belong to the king!"
"Quick, copy the video and go claim the reward! The video of the believer of light escaping will definitely be a good harvest!"
"Yep."
……
In the dark night, amid the loud noises and bursts of light, people have forgotten the time and are just wondering in which direction this chaotic world will develop. At this moment, a ray of sunlight rises from the horizon.
People surrounded by the city cannot see the distant light on the horizon. Only when reminded by others do they look up and realize that dawn is approaching.
In the area of chaos, there is an extremely quiet area because it is a ruin.
There are no corpses here, only piles of various broken items.
There was a man with one blue pupil and one red pupil in his calm eyes. The red pupil was clearly emitting scarlet blood light. In this dark world, it was like the pupil of a devil.
The breeze blew on his cheeks and ruffled the hair on his forehead.
He was wearing simple and ordinary clothes, sitting on the ruins. When the light on the horizon was dawning towards this side, he slowly stood up and faced the dawn breaking in the distance.
The sunlight shone on his body, and his red pupil flashed an even brighter red light at this moment, struggling in the last moment of the darkness, and then fading away.
When his blue pupils were illuminated by the sunlight, the originally dim light was gradually filled with strong light, and his blue eyes became as beautiful as gems.
Facing the sunshine, he is like justice under the sun.
He is the guardian of this city.
"The things you want to find out are no longer available based on current developments."
Next to the mountain of ruins, there is an old stone wall standing alone, which looks like it has been weathered for a long time. In the shadow behind the wall, there is a person who has never seen the light.
She spoke in a gentle and calm tone, with an extremely beautiful body outline in the darkness, as if she had long black hair. When facing the guardian, Qiming, she was calm and steady. At first glance, she looked like a mature and experienced female agent.
"Reason?" Above the ruins, Qiming stared straight at the dawn in the distant sky without looking back.
"They can't copy my father... they can't copy my power. All their research has stopped at the last point. They don't even know the true power of the Dark King. The power of the King is not something that people like them are qualified to achieve. Your expectations are just wishful thinking."
When the man behind the stone wall said this, Qiming did not react at all. He was so calm as if nothing mattered.
"That person, didn't he show up?"
When asked this question, a strange look flashed in Qiming's eyes. This was the issue he cared about most!
That man, the one who ruled his darkness, the one that even a blasphemer of darkness like him could not resist.
"No."
The person behind the stone wall responded seemingly calmly, but at this moment, she also felt a little lost.
She had been searching for the Dark King for an unknown amount of time but couldn't find him. She had heard the old man swear that he could make the Dark King appear, but until now there had been no trace or news of him.
She felt that this person's joy was in vain.
It’s been almost ten years.
She really wanted to take another look at that tall and warm man. She also wanted to lean on him again, and then kiss him, and then...
"There's none……"
Qiming was also a little disappointed after hearing the answer this time, but his emotions were more complicated, because even if he showed up, he seemed unable to do anything, and he would basically be beaten up again if he went.
The power of the king, after all, is now only about finding a way to obtain it, not possessing it.
142. Adults and Children
The power of the king, ah, the power that transcends all power. Whoever possesses this power will become a legend of a new era in the world.
Qi Ming looked at the distant horizon, recalling how he was beaten up again and again by that man, and slowly closed his eyes.
Before he obtains the power of the king, he will never be a match for the Dark King. Now he is calm and thinks clearly, but when night falls, he will become a devil that blasphemes darkness and will not be able to think as calmly and correctly as he does now. The final result will be that he will really meet the Dark King, and then bravely go up to him and have his legs broken.
Ugh……
Defeat the Dark King, usher in a new era of peace, and win the favor of the goddess. They are admired by countless people and become a fairy couple standing at the top of the world.
This goal is far away...
Seeing that Qiming fell silent, the figure of the woman behind the stone wall slowly faded until it disappeared.
She didn't want to waste too much time on this guy who wanted to defeat her father.
It was true that there was no chance to obtain the power of the king, but if there was, she would not tell Qiming because she wanted it herself.
If she had that power that sounds very, very strong, maybe she could help dad defeat that hateful goddess. Then she could capture that beautiful goddess and bring her home to lock her up as dad's concubine. Dad would definitely be very happy and would even pat her on the head!
Hehe...
As she was thinking, the girl who was dancing lightly on the ruins began to laugh secretly, and in the blink of an eye she disappeared in the clear morning sunshine.
……
"Alas, have you heard that the believer of light caused a big disturbance in Gaofengtai and defeated a dark apostle? After that, he was hunted down by the Dark King like a chicken. He may be dead now."
"Yes, I just saw a photo of the believer of light running away. His body was covered with marks of being broken. He was in great danger."
"Alas, I heard that some people from the Hero Association have captured some traitors, and all of them are safe. They are even more powerful than the henchmen of the Goddess of Light. I saw the latest news from the Association early in the morning, and they did capture some people."
"More powerful than the henchmen of the Goddess of Light? Well, let me tell you, I have heard through some channels that those heroes are of no use at all. The people they captured were captured with the help of the believers of Light. They just brought those people back. Now that the believers of Light are dead, they only care about themselves and take the people who were captured at the cost of their lives as their own. They are really a bunch of troubles. If the darkness had not ignored them, none of them would have thought of coming back."
"This……"
"Hey, you guys, is the believer of light really dead? He seems to be the only confidant of the Goddess of Light. It's unlikely that he died like this."
"You may not know this, but I found a large number of photos online. They are all photos of the scene where the Dark King passed by last night while chasing the believers of light."
"Hmm? Come on, show us."
"Come on, come on, don't be anxious."
"Hiss...these pits are several hundred meters in size."
"It's all in ruins. It seems that the Dark King really didn't let the believers of light go, and the goddess didn't come either..."
"This...what should we do?"
"Oh, it's over."
"..."
Dawn, dressed in white, flashed in a crowded place, eavesdropping on all kinds of things.
From what these people said, we can roughly judge that the Hero Association is boasting about its own achievements and restoring its morale, while the criminals are further spreading information that will cause panic after denying the Hero Association's remarks.
And now, because the criminals have more "evidence" than the Hero Association, and information that scares people always spreads faster than information that reassures people, and is more leading.
As this information continued to spread, the prestige of the Hero Association was once again attacked and questioned.
The vast majority of heroes come from ordinary families, and their families are also ordinary people. When something happens, the first thing they think of is not how to make the city better, but how to make their own family better.
For people who have experienced countless wars, their sense of belonging to any place or group other than their own home is only a faint and vague one.
People just want to have enough food and clothing and live in peace. They are so realistic and simple.
Thus, under the deliberate manipulation of some people, the people in this city began to become chaotic.
Having understood the current situation in Hopeless City, Dawn prepared to lurk towards the Hero Association.
What he is more worried about now is that the Hero Association will be like these people and collapse before the battle even starts. If this is true, even if he saves the situation in this city, this city will have no future.
"Nonsense! You're talking nonsense! You villains, heroes... heroes are not what you say they are. Heroes will defeat those bad guys and save us!"
At this moment, unexpectedly, a boy threw stones at those who talked about the hero's incompetence, shouting in dissatisfaction.
"Ouch, it hurts so much, Li Quan, look at what your child has done!?" Someone cried out in pain, covering a bump on his head.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the child is ignorant, I will go back and teach him a lesson."
"Bah, you are ignorant? You are still speaking for those useless heroes. I think he is just like you. You are useless and he follows suit. You can't even teach a bastard, you are useless... Ouch... Asshole, you dare to throw stones at me, I will break your legs."
"No, no, no, I'm sorry, brother. I'll go home and teach him a lesson. He won't dare to do it again next time."
"Get the hell out of here! I'm going to beat him to death."
The man roughly pushed the boy's father, who was trying desperately to apologize, to the ground, rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the boy aggressively.
"Asshole! Don't come over here! You bastard who always bullies my dad!" The boy threw stones at the man desperately.
