I, the final BOSS of the beta test server!

Gray felt the blood flowing in her veins stop along with her own heartbeat.

She raised her head stiffly.

Then, he saw the distant sky outside the royal city.

The young man bathed in the dim light, walking towards him step by step.

"for……"

"What……"

Gray's trembling voice was drowned out by the strong wind that blew across the wasteland.

The world became silent, leaving only the king of the underworld who reigned over the world in the blazing skylight.

"Little Grey."

This was a name that Gray was extremely familiar with, but hearing it at this moment, it made the girl feel a slight chill in her heart.

It was not until this moment that she realized the source of the abnormality that had been constantly emerging in the depths of her soul but had been ignored by her.

Since arriving in the capital, he had only activated the backtracking twice.

However, the degree of wear and tear imprinted on his soul far exceeded the value of "twice".

"game."

The young man's voice fell from the distant sky to the earth.

It was like a declaration, and also like a judgment.

"It's time to end..."

Chapter 148 I Come From an Era Where the Shore Guardians Have Long Been Forgotten by the World (6400)

Present world, Mystery Tower, Epoch Hall.

The light curtain spread out like water waves, rippling out layers of ripples, and reflecting everything that was happening in the night world at that moment.

The young man stood in the distant sky, looking down at the earth with a majestic gaze.

It was clearly morning, but the frozen dusk overshadowed the blazing daylight and obscured the entire sky.

And on the wasteland.

The gray-haired girl looked up at the boy in the distant sky, the expression in her beautiful emerald green eyes completely frozen.

She didn't run away, nor did she activate the time rewind function again. She just stood there in a daze.

"Wow, this guy Rust's aura is quite intimidating..."

"He housed the divine authority, one of the three elements of godhood—the Death Star Cup. He also ascended the throne of Hades in three years, embracing the Star Cup and the faith of countless dead within himself."

"This guy's current status is probably already at the peak of the sixth level... No, considering he is in the underworld, the average peak sixth level is probably not as good as him."

Looking at the figure high in the sky on the light curtain, Dean Yin grabbed a small dried fish with his furry claws and put it into his mouth, while pointing at the light curtain.

The authority of the Death Star Cup, the bonus of the imperial domain in the royal city, and the ability to control the power of the remaining body of the God of Death.

With these three factors combined, if Rast could truly obtain the Holy Grail, which is another key to becoming a god... then maybe he could even defeat the weakest legend.

Thinking of this, Dean Yin couldn't help but look stern.

The furry white tail swept across, gathering all the grilled fish and large bottles of happy water on the picnic blanket.

This little guy has such strength, he won’t come to snatch food from me, right?

On the side, Ophelia looked at Dean Snow Ferret, who was breathing heavily on the picnic mat because he was lost in the fantasy of protecting his food. The metal incarnation of immortal mercury couldn't help but reveal a helpless expression.

Even though my age might be older than the entire history of Fanxing University, I still have to maliciously act cute and young in front of me...

Haki Mink, you guy...

Ophelia felt that she had been hanging out with Dean Yin for too long, and her clever little head, which was enough to deal with the nobles in the imperial capital and even gain the upper hand, was about to be assimilated into a mess by this ferret.

"Little ferret, you think too much."

The mercury avatar, which had taken the form of a young girl, raised his forehead in a humane manner. "Unless it's a Night World-certified extraordinary item or emblem-based costume issued as a mission reward."

"Otherwise, everything we obtain from the night world will be nothing more than phantoms in the echoes of history, and cannot be brought back to the real world."

"Whether it's the Death Star Cup obtained in the Night World, the power of faith from the Old Age, or the remains of the Ancient God... they will all vanish into thin air when Rast returns."

"As the director of the Institute for Magical Creatures and a professor at Starry University, I believe you, Dean Yin, should be aware of these matters..."

"and--"

Ophelia narrowed her eyes, and the wine-red eyes simulated by the mercury incarnation stayed for a moment on Dean Silver, who was lying on the picnic blanket and wagging his tail innocently.

"I don't think that given Mr. Last's personality, he would be interested in Dean Yin's pet food."

Frankly speaking, even Ophelia sometimes couldn't tell whether the ferret was deliberately pretending to be stupid and cute, or whether it was really its nature.

Dean Yin was certainly a little afraid of her because he couldn't see her inner heart, but, wasn't it the same in reverse...

Even Ophelia, the second princess of the empire, could never understand the details of this talking ferret - its existence may be even older than the establishment of Star University, and the origins of Dean Silver have never been recorded in the intelligence database of the Mystery Tower.

A magical animal that can perfectly master human language and emotions, a lifespan that seems eternal, a unique "moon" sequence... beneath Dean Yin's silly and cute ferret exterior, there are too many mysteries and mysteries lurking.

Starry University and the Granville Empire observed Dean Silver for hundreds of years, but their only reward was confirmation that this ferret indeed harbored goodwill towards the humans of this world...

Another thing is that it is probably really lazy. It has stayed at the Starry University for hundreds of years and is too lazy to even move from its nest.

However, even so—

Dean Yin also has a corresponding number in the taboo list of the Mystery Tower.

0-03 Moon Beast

It's not the Level 1 Taboo Index that represents the potential to rival legends and a promising future, but rather Level 0.

Its existence itself is equivalent to a legend.

……

"So that's how it is. I almost forgot."

Dean Yin tapped his head with his furry tail. "After all, ferrets also age. When they are old, their memories cannot compare to you young people who have mechanical databases to assist you."

"However, since this guy can't bring out the Star Cup, I feel relieved."

Dean Yin patted his chest with his little paws as if he had breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought I was about to be bullied by Last and become his real pet ferret—"

"I've lost my freedom. From now on, I can only eat and sleep, sleep and eat every day... Although I have endless dried fish to eat, I can no longer breathe the fresh air of the outside world."

"Thinking about it now, I still feel a little scared."

Why do I feel that you don't seem to be afraid at all, but rather a little bit looking forward to it...

Do you even feel a little regretful that your pet was not really bullied and trained to be a servant who only asks for food and clothing?

Ophelia glanced at Dean Silver, who was lying on the picnic mat with an innocent look on his face, and finally looked away.

Whether he is pretending or acting in his true colors, this ferret has literally become a spirit.

It is indeed a fantasy to think that you can find out Dean Yin's background with just a few words.

The conversation is concluded.

Inside the Mysterious Tower, the attention of the man and the mink once again fell on the light curtain, the real-time live broadcast of the Era Echo Night World.

In the light curtain, the young man shrouded in a dim halo stood alone in the distant sky, like a king ruling the world.

In fact, he is indeed the king.

He is the lonely king admired by all spirits in the underworld.

"However, becoming the King of the Underworld, ruling over the life and death of all beings, and stepping onto that lofty throne... also means that you will embark on a lonely road from now on."

"No, it's not because I'm lonely as the King of the Underworld in the Night World."

"It's because you have been alone since the beginning."

Dean Yin stared at the young man in the distant sky on the light screen.

The playful and lazy look in those ruby-like animal eyes faded a little, and a slight ripple appeared.

It is a "moon beast" that grows by feeding on human emotions.

Because of this, despite the wall separating the real world and the night world...

But at this moment, Dean Yin briefly caught a glimpse of Last's true inner world.

The solitary figure of a lone king in that high tower was not a disguise... it was also the embodiment of his inner self.

Compared to the peaceful, approachable and easy-going Rast in the present world, he is now closer to Rast's true spiritual landscape.

"A heart that remains unchanged despite thousands of ridicules, and the loneliness that arises from it."

"Then who was it that made you understand what love is for the first time?"

Dean Yin murmured something.

"Little Tina, Little Xia..."

"It's still the person you mentioned before, that person in Canaan—"

"Or..."

Dean Yin's beastly eyes slowly locked onto the girl with confused eyes in the distant sky within the light curtain.

"It's this little girl called Gray."

Dean Yin's whisper was not heard by Ophelia who was standing beside him.

But at the same time, the wine-red eyes of Ophelia's mercury incarnation were completely locked on the gray-haired girl in the light curtain.

Through the live broadcast on the light screen from Last's first-person perspective, Dean Yin and Ophelia both knew what the girl had done.

Her name is Gray, and she comes from the Shore Guardian organization of the Sixth Epoch.

Moreover, it seems that there is some extremely special emotional entanglement with Rast in the remnants of previous history, which is difficult for outsiders to explain.

That's why she traveled thousands of miles to the royal city of Paradise, the site of the holy ceremony.

He is willing to risk his own life to stop Rast from taking possession of the Holy Grail.

And, from the perspective of an observer.

Ophelia made some even more shocking discoveries about Grey.

"A long stage in the Fate sequence that can interfere with fate and the flow of time."

"Although a professor at the Ruins Institute had long ago predicted the existence and general capabilities of the Destiny Sequence... I never expected to actually witness it in person."

"Going back in time, overturning everything that has happened, having the possibility of repeated trial and error in countless timelines... For a human to possess such near-godlike power is truly a bit too shameless."

"Furthermore, this girl named Gray seems to possess some ability to simulate other people's Sequences and Night Blades and imitate them—"

In the eyes of Ophelia's mercury incarnation, several micro runes used for detection, analysis and recording were slowly rotating.

Although it was just a few glimpses of the live broadcast from Last's perspective.

However, relying on Ophelia's mental power as a genius mechanic and analysis assisted by artificial intelligence, she was able to perceive the full picture of what was happening in the night world at the moment based on the only information she collected.

She exchanged glances with Dean Snow Ferret beside her, and both had similar associations.

Rast's ability——

That is Night Blade, who was registered as "Copy Eye" at Star University.

It is so similar to the ability displayed by the girl named Gray at this moment. Both can perfectly simulate and replicate different types of sequence abilities and night blades.

"I knew that this guy, Last, was trying to trick me. His copy eyes can only imitate fake skills..."

Dean Yin curled his lips and said, "This guy is already immune to the reversal of time, and he's still using this copying eye to copy the eye. He's really treating his teacher like a fool."

It felt that it had been fooled before, but it had no evidence. Now Dean Yin felt that he seemed to have finally found evidence.

"But, is this little girl named Gray scared silly?"

It looked at the scene in the light curtain and swung its tail in confusion:

"Why are you just standing there and giving up resistance?"

Dean Yin just complained a few words, but found that the little princess next to him did not keep up with his thoughts.
