If this continues, not only will the gods be destroyed, but the server of this game called the underworld will also be destroyed.

"How long are you going to keep acting like this?"

Roland sighed and cast a cold gaze at the people behind him.

"Since you are not dead yet, hurry up and act. If you continue like this, the gods and cities on the ground will be destroyed before us."

Hearing these words, Ota was the first to stand up, continuing with his cold expression, and pulling up the family member beside him.

"Indeed," Finn also held back the pain, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and steadied his shaking body again, "It is more valuable to die in battle with monsters than to die after being crystallized and shattered."

But compared to these top adventurers, the first person to come to Roland was the girl with hair as golden as sand.

"This sound is very painful..."

Ai Si lowered her eyes slightly, and her voice, which had usually been calm, was now a little sad.

She also looked at the beam of light, as if she could sense something.

"Ais, are you okay?"

Roland looked at Ai Si in surprise. He did not see any purple crystals on the exposed surface of her skin.

I was resisting because of my own strength, but how did Aisi do it?

Considering the immortal blood in the other person, as well as her abnormality when he heard the singing of Baozhu's fetus before, and the name "Arya" from Revis, Roland roughly understood who the Virus Queen, the spirit, was possessed by.

"Yeah," the perceptive girl noticed Roland's gaze and shook her head, "It just sounds a bit uncomfortable."

"Well, let's get started. What's next is undoubtedly the final battle."

Roland walked towards the place where the Piranha Plant had appeared without hesitation, and sure enough, he soon saw the stairs.

The final chapter of everything will be revealed at its exit.

In a mysterious space, a man in a white robe woke up with a gloomy face from a place that looked like a cockpit and was made of purple crystals and plant tentacles. After pulling out the tentacle that pierced his head, he pressed his head where the pain had not yet subsided, and made a resentful sound.

"Damn hero..."

Everything was going smoothly, but I didn't expect such a troublemaker to appear. Fortunately, I successfully initiated the revival ceremony, otherwise it would have been troublesome.

"Where on earth did he come from? How could such an orthodox hero still exist in this era?" the man in white robe said gloomily. "Fortunately, the spread of the Apocalypse virus went smoothly, and the materials for the ritual have been collected."

He looked at the purple crystalline powder floating in the air around him. This was the material transformed from the dead people. Unlike Revis, who was focused on doing things, he was more inclined to understand the nature and power of the virus itself.

When it comes to understanding the Apocalypse Virus, even the gods in this world would not be more authoritative than him.

"The materials for the ritual have been collected, and the carrier has been separated from the host. Soon, I will be able to wake you up."

The man in white robe looked at the huge amount of soul energy gathering in the air and gradually pouring into the pink-haired girl sleeping in the crystal, and talked to himself with longing.

Once these soul energies are completely injected into the crystal in front of them, the girl will be awakened. She will completely control the river of souls in the sky, allowing the apocalypse of the end to come completely and destroy this old world.

And he will begin to survive in the new world as a member and prophet of the new mankind.

If this is the ambition of that idiot Rui Weisi, then it should end here.

The man in white robe sneered at his dead companion and stared at the perfect face of the girl in the crystal.

His ambition does not stop there.

He wanted to become the god of the new world and guide the evolution of the new world together with her, whom he admired. However, it was impossible for him to make the Virus Queen make such a choice alone.

Therefore, when he discovered the external force, instead of expelling it, he cooperated with it and allowed it to integrate more deeply into the ritual.

Anyway, even if he did nothing, the sleeping virus queen would not be able to resist this essentially beneficial fusion. Why shouldn't he go with the flow and reap the benefits for himself?

"Hey," he frowned and said loudly in the empty space with a fearful yet eager tone, "I have done everything you asked. Now, it's time for me to get my reward!"

There was no echo in the silent space, but a huge emotion suddenly began to emerge in the gathering of purple powder.

That emotion was filled with hesitation and doubt, as if one had seen something incredible.

The moment he felt this emotion, the man in white robe, who thought that the other party was going to break his promise, became even more uneasy, and he roared angrily.

"You promised! That power belongs to me! You should also understand that you must hand over this power no matter what. Is there anyone else who can do this besides me?"

He opened his arms, exposing his distorted face completely, and stared into the blurry shadow in the air.

"Do you have any other more suitable options?"

And as his voice rang, the emotions in the air nodded as if they were reminded of something.

Then, a faint blue light bloomed out of nowhere, with a double helix structure as strange as genes, circling around each other like snakes, and then they rushed towards the body of the man in white robe.

“Ahhhhh——!”

The next moment, the tragic howling caused by pain sounded again in the silent space.

-

"According to the records left by Zeus's family that the guild provided us, the 59th floor should be a world of ice... Of course, at a time when such anomalies occur, this information cannot be fully trusted."

"Not only can we not believe it, but what on earth happened on the 59th floor? We are almost at the exit, but we can't feel any cold air at all. So, aren't our Fire Dragon Armor Cloths useless?"

Soon, some adventurers began to grumble at this anomaly, and received even more unpleasant responses.

"Do you think this is a good thing? It can cause mutations on an independent layer. It looks like this is going to be a tough battle."

"Hmm..." Finn breathed out, biting his thumb to suppress the uneasiness in his heart.

But suddenly, he saw Roland beside him stunned for a moment and revealed a serious expression.

He had never seen this kind of expression on Roland's face. Even when he was in charge of the expedition team, he always looked indifferent. Could it be that something unexpected happened ahead that made him show this expression?

"what happened?"

"It's not clear yet... But it seems that there have been some new changes."

But this time Roland had no intention of hiding anything, but his answer was still very ambiguous.

He looked at the back of his right hand. At this moment, it was aching again, just like the time when the Holy Grail had forcibly given him the Command Seal.

Roland also vaguely sensed that there was a strong soul fluctuation at the stairs ahead, conveying an emotion that seemed like longing, as if it resonated with him.

"Let's go then."

Finn didn't ask any more questions. With a determined look on his face, he walked out of the cave first.

The adventurers followed closely behind, facing the unknown with caution and anticipation. Then, the scene that came into their eyes made all words disappear except for exclamations.

There is no ice everywhere on the fifty-ninth floor, no biting cold wind, only a cave that is much larger than the fifty-eighth floor, and a purple oval sphere that almost covers the entire cave.

What was even more shocking was that the female monster with a huge plant lower body on the crystal's surface was very similar to the orb fetus that Roland and Ais had encountered before, except that it was far superior in both aura and size.

"How could that be...?"

"It's impossible..."

But the moment they saw the monster, none of the adventurers cared about the fact that the monsters here were also parasitized. They just stared blankly at the top of the female monster.

Looking at the girl with beautiful long hair, slim figure, green skin matched with a green dress, she has a breathtaking beauty that is not inferior to that of a goddess, but a lifeless face.

"The fairy spirit actually turned into that!"

That’s right, in front of that majesty, everyone knows the true identity of the female monster. It is the messenger who assists the hero, the darling of the gods, and the existence closest to gods.

Immortal essence.

Many people turned their eyes to Esther in Roland's hand, still unable to understand why the noble fairy would turn into a monster.

And why, at this moment, has she become an empty shell?

"What kind of existence can allow a fallen immortal spirit to leave its body... It's as if it has been sublimated..."

Uneasy whispers continued to be heard, but the adventurers still held their weapons tightly.

"In short, if we break the barrier, we can find the culprit and resolve the disaster, right?"

Finn narrowed his eyes, connected the previous clues together, and came to a conclusion.

"It seems to be true... Livilia."

Roland took over the conversation and called the magician beside him. After a quick chant, Livilia quickly released a magic spell to attack the barrier, but it did not leave any trace, and as she moved.

The soil outside the barrier kept churning, and many huge flower buds emerged from the ground, turning into carnivorous plants. Among their roots, there were also swarms of worms.

Everyone was not surprised by this result. They quickly picked up their weapons and prepared to face the tide of monsters. At this moment, an arrogant voice appeared.

"You stubborn idiots! I didn't expect you to actually come here..."

Above the purple crystal, a piece of crystal gradually became transparent, revealing the figure of a man in white robe, but compared to before, his right hand was covered with bloody crystal vines.

The vines growing out of the flesh and blood were still growing at a slow and steady pace, piercing into the body of the man in white robe. With the vision of the adventurers present, it was not difficult to see that in the crystal, the bright red blood was being ruthlessly drawn by the vines and flowing towards the arm.

But the man in white robe seemed not to see anything and was still shouting excitedly.

"But now, I have to thank you for your stupidity. After all, how can this power belonging to the new king be without witnesses?"

His mental state seemed to be getting more and more crazy, and he kept roaring.

"Next, witness my power!"

The man in white sneered, and as Roland looked thoughtfully at him, he raised his right hand and stretched it into the purple river beside him. The flying crystalline powder seemed to be inspired by something, gathered into a long stone, and then shattered with a loud bang.

But when the outermost layer of powder dissipated, he unexpectedly held a sci-fi cannon-shaped void in his hand.

The man in white robe raised the hand cannon and fired a shot in the direction of the adventurer. After directly shattering Livilia's attack magic, the remaining force actually left a big hole in the monster group.

“Hahahaha! This is the power of the void! The power of the king!”

Watching the purple-black bombardment continue to explode and spread, the man in white robes let out a triumphant laugh.

Then, his vicious eyes focused on Roland.

The two looked at each other silently, and then the man in white robe raised the muzzle of the gun again. Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

"It's your turn! Sword Hero!"

Faced with such a threat, Roland just shook his head helplessly and raised one hand.

In the huge cave, only his voice could be heard.

"This power is indeed amazing, but you are wrong about one thing. Although you can use this power, at best you can only be regarded as the outer packaging for storing gifts. This power..."

Roland's expression changed, and he released the protection of the horse spell, responding to the fluctuations and resonance in the air.

"——It belongs to me!"

Suddenly, a silver spiral quickly emerged from the white-robed man's right hand. After blasting the surrounding crystalline vines and the entire arm into pieces, it turned into a long rainbow and rushed towards Roland's raised arm like a young swallow throwing itself into someone's arms!

"no no……"

Not even caring about the pain in his body, the man in white robes with bloodshot eyes could only watch in despair as the silver double helix wrapped around Roland's raised right hand, tightly binding it, and then obediently transformed into a strange mark floating on the back of his hand, and then slowly disappeared.

This was completely different from the state he was in before when he accepted this power and was in pain and struggling. Every time he used it, he had to let the power of the void absorb his vitality before he could control it.

After the silver spiral broke away, the already unstable void in his hand turned into powder again, leaving the man in white robe no chance to even launch an attack out of anger.

"Hands, my arms...

He could only cover his broken arm and let out a heart-wrenching wail in Roland's direction.

"——My King's Power!"

Chapter 155 Let’s Count Your Sins

"That power should be mine! Why can you bear it?!"

The man in white robe let out an unwilling roar, completely unable to understand why things turned out this way.

"Maybe it's because, from the very beginning, it chose me."

Roland also looked at the seal in his hand, somewhat puzzled.

The Apocalypse virus has a collective consciousness. The first host will become the king, that is, the person with the highest authority named Eve. This virus itself has the mission of triggering the Apocalypse. In order to fully achieve this requirement, the existence of another power, Adam, is also indispensable. The two together will have the power of Genesis.

But the question is, why was I chosen?

Seeing the look on the white-robed man's face, Roland understood that he simply did not have the qualities to bear this power, and that this king's power could not have been given to him by the Virus Queen.

Obviously, all this was done by the second spirit behind the scenes, who packed the gift and presented it to him attentively.

Adam's authority is very dangerous. Even for the Virus Queen, this authority is independent. However, the second spirit inside still made such a bold choice even though he showed clear hostility.

This is really suspicious...
