Collapse, harem after the end of the world

"It seems that Rita's death was a huge blow to you."

"Of course, the Prime Minister and I have been together for a thousand years. Isn't this a very normal thing?"

"But it seems that the blow you suffered is more than just this, right?"

Guanxing smiled calmly at this time, and then placed a chessboard in front of Adam.

"If you want to know everything, why not play this game of chess with me?"

Looking at the chess set up by Stargazing, Adam shook his head quietly.

"That's not necessary. I can't beat you."

Adam was very clear about his own strength in chess. Back in Hyperion, he had only briefly learned the rules, so he had no confidence in beating Stargazing.

"Sometimes, the purpose of playing chess isn't about winning or losing, but about something else. Captain, won't you play with me next time?"

Looking at the stars in front of him, Adam finally picked up the chess piece on the table.

"Come to think of it, in the three months since the Prime Minister's death, I've managed to do something that has eluded me for a thousand years. It's hilarious. Now, the Huang Empire is the only country left in the world."

"Are you happy then? You've accomplished your dream of unifying the world. This is what you've always wanted to do, right?"

Adam and Guanxing continued to move their chess pieces, but their attention was no longer on the chessboard.

"Happy? Perhaps. But if possible, I would rather the Prime Minister stayed by my side forever. Having gained the power of immortality, yet having to endure endless loneliness. This is the greatest sorrow in the world."

He didn't know if it was Adam's illusion, but at this moment, Adam felt the aura on Guanxing's body and began to become weaker and weaker.

"Have you not……"

Adam couldn't help but widen his eyes at this moment. Guanxing's hand holding the chess piece had even begun to tremble noticeably.

"Ahem, I didn't expect that I would fall into their trap in the end. Although I tried my best to clear out the spies in the palace, someone still got bribed?"

At this time, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Guanxing's mouth, and the soldiers around him nervously took out their weapons and prepared to move forward.

"Go back!"

However, the stargazing at this time drove away these soldiers.

"Have you been poisoned?"

Adam grabbed Guanxing's hand at this time and found that her pulse had begun to weaken.

"Yes, it's an unpredictable poison. Those two had already planned this from the beginning, trading their lives for mine. I didn't expect that you would save them."

"Since you knew it a long time ago, why didn't you raise your vigilance?"

Adam couldn't believe that with his stargazing wisdom, he could be poisoned so easily.

Unless, stargazing is done on purpose.

"Maybe I've simply lived enough. Or maybe I have no regrets now."

At this time, Guanxing's face began to become weak, and the poison had begun to spread in her body.

"For thousands of years, I have been trying to revive Xiao Te and find that person, but repeated failures have made me realize that I am not as powerful as I imagined. But today, I finally met you..."

"You've recognized me? When will it happen?"

Adam held Guanxing in his arms and kept trying to suppress the toxins in Guanxing's body with his own strength.

"Ahem, don't think I've been living in a fleeting moment for all these years. I've already sorted out the relationship between you and the captain. A normal captain wouldn't hold the Divine Fire Trial in his hands, right?"

"If that's the case, then you should live well, right?"

"Please spare me. When Rita left me, I had already planned to give up my life. I'm exhausted after a thousand years. Let me have a good rest."

"Please spare me. When Rita left me, I had already planned to give up my life. I'm exhausted after a thousand years. Let me have a good rest."

As the poison spread across Guanxing's face, her life force gradually faded away.

"Finally, I placed Xiao Te at the altar. If you have the chance... go and get him back."

After saying the last sentence, Guanxing's hand finally dropped.

And at the moment Guanxing died, something in Guanxing's hand began to flash with a strange light.

At the moment Guanxing died, time around him seemed to restart, constantly moving backwards. This strange phenomenon left Adam feeling incredulous, as if he were trapped in a vortex of time and space.

This was the first time Adam had experienced something like this.

The corpse of the stargazer in his arms began to dissipate, and the things that had happened in the Huang Empire over the past thousand years kept flashing before his eyes.

In an instant, it seemed to Adam that a thousand years had passed.

At this moment, a huge amount of information flooded into Adam's mind.

"what!!!!"

Adam felt as if a bomb had exploded in his head in an instant.

Around him, only the ring he had worn on his hand while stargazing was still shining.

"Hey, wake up, Captain!"

In the darkness, Adam seemed to hear someone calling his name.

"who is it?"

Adam opened his eyes in confusion, only to find that he was lying in a strange house.

What surprised him even more was that Guanxing was standing beside him intact, looking at him curiously.

“…What on earth happened?”

Chapter 432: Summer Returns?

"Stargazing?!"

When Adam opened his eyes again, he found that Guanxing, who was supposed to be dead, appeared in front of him again.

What’s different is that Guanxing was still wearing the clothes he remembered, instead of the gorgeous clothes he wore in the Huang Empire.

"Why are you here? Aren't you... dead?"

"I'm dead? What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you here? You should have gone back. Wait, it seems like something's wrong with you."

Guanxing looked at Adam with a strange expression at this time, always feeling that the person in front of him was unusually familiar.

This familiarity did not come from the captain, but rather from an old friend of his.

"Time has been reshaped. What on earth happened?"

At this time, Adam did not answer the question about stargazing, but instead looked at his hands in confusion.

Just now, he only remembered that after the ring in Guanxing's hand emitted a strange light, the time he was in began to rapidly move backwards.

And at this time, he felt that the world's oppression on him began to decrease to a certain extent.

"Wait, what are you talking about? Are you really the captain? Or are you actually..."

"I am indeed the captain, but... it's a bit difficult to explain. You can just call me Adam now. The previous captain and I have become one."

Adam tried to speak concisely to Guanxing, saying that there was something more important that needed to be taken care of at this moment.

"It's really you?! You're back?"

Hearing Adam's tone, Guanxing realized that Adam was really back.

The assassin who had protected her a thousand years ago actually returned to this world.

"But...how could you?"

"We'll talk about the details later. At this point in time, the Wutou have already returned to this world. I'm afraid there are more than..."

Adam quickly opened the door at this time, and the strange sky in the distance made him feel bad again.

"What's going on?"

Guanxing also saw the situation outside at this time. Judging from the direction, this should be the direction of the Huang Empire.

What happened to the empire while he was away?

At this time, Adam felt the flow of energy in the air around him. In addition to the terrifying power of fire, there were two other forces flowing in the air.

If Adam's premonition is correct, it is likely that not only the Huo Dou but also the two strange beasts that had been killed before have appeared in this world.

"If we don't hurry, Rita and the others will probably be killed. Stargazing, let's go."

"Rita is going to be killed? What's going on?! Please explain it to me clearly!"

A huge amount of information flooded into Guanxing's mind at this time, and even she was unable to process it for a while.

For the stargazers, Adam, who had disappeared for a thousand years, unexpectedly reappeared and merged with the captain.

Even now, the imps and other strange beasts have reappeared, and Adam now says that Rita is in danger.

This is too much for stargazing to handle.

"I'll talk about the details later! Just follow me first!"

"wait!"

Adam said as he took off with Stargazing.

........................

When Adam returned to the Huang Empire with the stargazing, Rita, as the prime minister, also noticed the unusual scene in the sky above the Huang Empire. Facing the dazzling sunlight, she looked up at the sky, her heart filled with doubts and anxiety.

At that moment, Rita was presented with a scene she had never seen before. The sky above the Huang Empire was divided into three distinct realms, each with a creepy and eerie atmosphere.

The eastern sky was dyed red by a blazing crimson flame, the raging flames curling up into violent tongues like a roaring beast. The flames spread like a raging tide, dancing like sparks, and exuding a scorching energy that was suffocating.

The western sky, however, was a stark contrast. Hail rained down from the heavens, chilling every corner. It was the height of summer, yet it felt like a world of ice and snow. The biting wind condensed into hailstones, relentlessly battering the ground. Like blades, the hailstones fell with a chilling chill, accompanied by a crackling sound, enveloping the earth in a blanket of ice.

The northern sky was even more terrifying. A terrifying gale swept in, violently devouring everything. Endless black clouds rolled in, accompanied by the howling wind, swallowing everything in its shadow. The howling wind uprooted trees, ripped off roofs, and tossed people to their knees. The entire north seemed to be plunged into the abyss of storm, and everything was in chaos.

Even Rita, who had lived for thousands of years, had never seen such a strange scene.

The weather began to change drastically, something that had only happened when the strange beasts first descended.

"A strange beast has arrived? Could it be because..."

At this moment, Rita suddenly had a bad feeling.

Could it be that the disaster of strange beasts that has disappeared for thousands of years is about to come back to the Huang Empire?

Could it be that the disaster of strange beasts that has disappeared for thousands of years is about to come back to the Huang Empire?

Just as Rita began to worry, a big hole suddenly appeared in the eastern sky, and then a huge beast claw appeared.

Just as Rita began to worry, a big hole suddenly appeared in the eastern sky, and then a huge beast claw appeared.

"It's Huodou!"

Rita was all too familiar with the scene before her. Sure enough, the strange beasts, which had disappeared for so many years, had begun to descend again. Her heart was pounding, and she quickly made a judgment. This wasn't just a simple abnormal celestial phenomenon; it was a sign of the strange beasts' return!

The beast's claws were getting closer and closer, and a huge figure appeared in the sky of the Huang Empire. It had a burly body and a ferocious face, and its eyes revealed endless ferocity and brutality.

Just like the Huo Dou a thousand years ago, as soon as it appeared, the entire Huang Empire was plunged into a hot atmosphere.

"Master Prime Minister!"

Faced with this terrifying beast, the ministers around were at a loss as to what to do. They looked at the prime minister, who was the only one who knew about the beast after thousands of years of experience.

"Assemble the troops! Everyone, listen up! We must hold out until Master Stargazer returns, no matter the cost!"

At this moment, a look of worry appeared on Rita's face.

The evil spirits have returned to the world again. Has there been any problem at the Stargazing Site?

Chapter 433: Fighting, Wuxiang, and Yama

With the appearance of the Huo Dou, the entire sky above the Huang Empire seemed to be torn apart by an invisible blade. A scorching heat filled the air, making people feel as if they were in the crater of a giant volcano. The city's buildings, streets, and people's homes were engulfed in flames, and the raging sea of fire engulfed everything.

Standing tall atop a massive building, the ghoul's presence resembled a bloodthirsty monster, destined to bring destruction and death. His every move was accompanied by a monstrous fire, as if his very body were the source of the flames. Anyone who approached him, or even considered resisting him, would be consumed by his fiery power in the next instant, reduced to ash.
