I, the final BOSS of the beta test server!

Last took the things left by Dean Yin, including the pure white sacred grenade, and put them into his arms.

The appearance of this prop actually looks like two crystal clear chess pieces, as if made of crystal, and the style is exactly the same as the chess pieces in Last's memory in his previous life.

One is the "King" and the other is the "Rook" in the shape of a castle.

As long as you hold one of the pieces, you can use castling to exchange positions with another piece.

Of course, just like the rules of chess in Last's previous life, castling can only be used once in each game, and the substitute chess piece in Last's hand, as a disposable consumable, will also be scrapped after one use.

But even so, this is a good thing that can save your life at a critical moment and can be used as a Flying Thunder God.

Dean Yin kept this thing for himself, obviously considering its compatibility with the sacred grenade that Professor Barbarossa had previously given him.

Without this thing, given the killing range of the Holy Grenade, it is very likely that 800 enemies will be injured while 1,000 of your own people will be injured.

I can only say that Dean Yin really has his Tsunderemon firmly established.

……

There are many checkpoints outside the Mysterious Tower, but the interior is not under strict martial law.

After all, if there really were an intruder who could pass through the checkpoints outside and reach the interior of the Mystery Tower... then setting up security doors and passwords would be no different from just decorations.

Soon, Rast arrived at the entrance to the End Night World alone.

The entrances to other night worlds all look like doors, emitting light and shadows like ripples of water.

But the entrance to the Final Night World is a little different.

It was a huge black stone tablet.

It looks a bit like the Starry Obelisk standing tall at the gate of Starry University, but unlike the obelisk, the stone tablet in front of him seems more illusory and older.

The names of the night travelers were not written on the monument, but instead were covered by countless ancient and mysterious marks under the dim night sky.

It is the trace of the passing of time, with a vicissitudes and distant charm.

It seems that this stone tablet is really as defined by the night world, witnessing the rise, prosperity, aging and end of a civilization in the old era.

And it seemed as if——

The tombstone of that once glorious civilization.

Luster paused before the dark tombstone.

The dim night light that covered the tombstone briefly dissipated, and in the dim light, the clear tombstone reflected Last's current appearance.

He has an upright posture and an extraordinary bearing.

His handsome face has deep features and an indifferent expression.

Only the pair of eyes hidden under the dark hair looked clear and bright at first glance, like bright stars at the bottom of a lake.

But if you look more closely, you can see mottled cracks deep in the eyes...

It looks like a broken piece of porcelain, already covered with cracks inside, and only barely maintained in its entirety by glue.

"I never thought that just looking at some documents in the archives would affect my mental state to this extent."

Last looked at his reflection on the monument, where he had slightly removed his mask, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

If it were when he was trapped in Deep Blue Harbor, this mental state... basically meant that he was not far from returning to Canaan to see Xiao Ai.

But, for Rast today.

Even if he returned to that place during the gaps in the night world, Canaan might not still be the utopia that could heal all his wounds.

Just like the illusion in Dongshui Town woven by the blood mist based on his own memories.

Canaan really exists in the real world, and he can reunite with Xiao Ai in the real world, and they can even go to school and have adventures together at the Star University... After all, all this is just a wishful dream of Last.

And since it is a dream, there will be a day when you wake up.

"But even so, I have to uncover the truth." He whispered to himself.

Canaan disappeared from the present world, but the truth still remains in the gaps of the night world.

The truth about the person who planted the dream of being a shore guardian in my young heart.

And the truth behind being trapped in Deep Blue Harbor for three hundred years...

After saying this to himself, the ripples in the ocean of Rast's mind subsided in an instant.

He took a deep breath and calmed his thoughts.

In the reflection of the stele, the eyes were covered with a layer of gray mist, obscuring the sharp light.

Rast put on the flawless mask again, leaving no flaws in front of outsiders.

"Then let's make one final confirmation."

"Five one-time healing crystals, holy grenades, substitute chess pieces 'King and Rook', 'Iron Moon' emblem, 'Seven Realms' emblem, various alchemical elixirs, specially enchanted warheads... nothing was left out."

"My spirits are full and my physical condition is acceptable."

"All inherent skills have been cooled down. The original text of the Fool's Library has been confirmed to be correct. All historical data on the Sixth Era in the Arcana Tower database, including the various common languages ​​of that era, has been memorized."

"Ready perfectly."

He gently extended his hand.

Let his right hand touch the huge black tombstone.

The next moment.

Everything around, whether it was the flickering candlelight or the flowing breeze, was frozen in an instant.

All that remained was the increasingly dense night that emanated from the stone tablet.

It gently wrapped up Rast's body.

He entered the night world again.

The world of the final night, belonging to the Sixth Epoch.

……

"Ah, these ones always make Diao worry."

"With their talent, these guys could just sit back and level up in the academy...but they insist on being so pretentious, wishing they could spend the entire year immersed in the night world."

"Alas, there's no reliable news about this guy entering the Night World. I'm not in the mood to even eat dried fish anymore."

In the empty Mystic Tower, a silver light suddenly flashed by.

Dean Yin was suspended in mid-air, looking at the gradually dissipating night light beside the huge tombstone, and sighed heavily.

Although it said that it didn't like the scene of parting, it still followed secretly with an honest heart, and only showed up when Last entered the night world.

"Who should I ask for today's meal ticket... Tina or Shia?"

"But considering Little Tina's personality, she's probably either already in the Reverberations of History or on her way there... Little Xia should be guarding the Night World entrance at the border. It'll take several days to find her."

"What a hassle! It's so cold and I'm too lazy to go out, but there's no internet in the Arcanum Tower. Why not just sleep here and wait for that brat to come out?"

Just as Dean Yin rolled around in mid-air, bored, and began to wonder whether to return to the academy or simply go into hibernation mode right here...

A hint of suspicion suddenly flashed across its ruby-like eyes, and it looked towards the entrance of the Mystery Tower in the distance.

Relying on the instincts of a magical creature, Dean Yin sensed some familiar aura from that direction.

"Xia-chan?"

"Just when we were saying we were out of meal tickets, she showed up on her own?"

Dean Yin was delighted, but then he became dejected again.

Although it had been following Rast around all this time, it had no idea what was going on in the academy...

But Akxia came to the Mystery Tower at this time, obviously not to chat with him, nor to look up information.

It is very likely that Akxia is also here to challenge the world of the Last Night.

Although Akxia's long-stage "Death God" sequence is not as unique as Dean Yin's own sequence, there is no other like it in the world.

However, because advancement requires living with death, there are only a handful of extraordinary people who have reached the long stage of this sequence even in the entire history... The vast majority of extraordinary people who have set foot in this sequence have either become mentally disturbed due to frequent experiences of death, or died suddenly in various inexplicable ways.

Therefore, the knowledge inheritance of the Death God Sequence is also extremely incomplete. If one wants to be promoted successfully, they can only enter the night world with similarities.

The End Night World is the only night world with full sequence affinity. In addition, because of its higher rewards, powerful and confident night travelers like Axia often use it as their trial ground.

It doesn't matter. Even though I'm about to enter the night world, at least I can get some food tickets.

However, just as Dean Yin was shaking his snow-white tail and was about to go to Akshia to get some food and drink.

Its furry tail suddenly froze in mid-air.

"I'm so lucky! I didn't expect that following Sister Axia would lead me to encounter such an unexpected surprise."

The elegant and pleasant voice of a girl echoed in the air.

The next moment, Dean Yin saw a girl wearing a dress and with semi-long brown hair, who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, following Axia into the Mystery Tower.

She looked at Dean Yin, who was hanging in mid-air with a look of utter disappointment on his face, and a look of surprise appeared on his delicate face with a hint of childishness.

The girl lifted the hem of her skirt and gave Dean Yin an impeccable royal salute.

"Long time no see, Dean Yin."

Listening to the girl's innocent and pleasant voice that sounded like the sound of nature, Dean Yin's hair stood on end.

A silver light flashed in its eyes, and it was about to use its ability to run away.

But immediately afterwards, an ink-black liquid suddenly began to flow in the air around Dean Yin's body.

Although it is liquid, it reflects a metallic luster, reminiscent of flowing mercury.

The next moment, Dean Yin's body, which had half disappeared, reappeared and paused in mid-air.

And around it, the mercury-like liquid metal surface suddenly lit up one gorgeous alchemical matrix after another.

In the light of the alchemical matrix, black liquid metal aggregates and reconstructs.

Finally, it transformed into the shape of two small hands.

The mercury hand grabbed Dean Yin, who had a look of despair on his face, and brought him to the girl in the dress.

The girl in the dress stood on tiptoe and held Dean Yin in her arms, gently stroking his head as if he were a cat.

"Why did you bring Ophelia here?"

Dean Yin looked at Axia, who was watching everything happening in front of her with an expressionless face, next to the girl in the dress with a resentful expression.

"She said she was Little Tina's sister."

Axia tilted her head and replied with the help of the moonlight whisper: "And she also said that she is your friend, Cat."

"Friends are a thing."

Dean Yin's expression was exactly the same as the dried fish he had eaten not long ago, the same dead fish face.

Ophelia.

The second daughter of Emperor Aaron of Granville and the half-sister of Hiltina.

At the same time, because Hiltina refused to acknowledge her royal identity, Ophelia was also the only princess of the Granville Empire in the eyes of outsiders.

On the other hand, despite her young age, she is a rare genius in the field of mechanics.

The mercury hand that was transformed from liquid metal just now was Ophelia's masterpiece.

By utilizing the alchemical matrix's refining function, she can make the liquid immortal metal composed of thousands of particles materialize into various forms according to her wishes.

It can even temporarily obscure the laws of space.

Of course, if Dean Yin used all his strength, the liquid metal that blocked the laws of space in front of him would not be able to trap him.

However, it was obviously impossible for Dean Yin to use his full strength on a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old.

As a result, Ophelia, the second princess of the Granville Empire, became Dean Yin's biggest nemesis, an existence that he tried to avoid as much as possible.

"Little Snow Ferret, did that new student named Rust just enter the Apocalypse World?"

Ophelia gently touched Dean Silver's head with her mercury hand and spoke again in an elegant and innocent voice.

Dean Yin didn't care that Ophelia's address to him had changed from "Dean Yin" to "Little Ferret". He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You really came here for him."

"of course."
