The world-devouring dragon

Chapter 280 Maintaining dignity in the face of death

Around the world, JIWG-17976785 administrative district, somewhere.

The sky and the earth were dark, and the ground was shaking, but the lights in the villa were bright.

In the luxurious banquet, the cheerful singing and music stopped for a moment. Most of the people looked pale and frightened, staring at the huge darkness that was looming above the sky. Even with prosthetic eyes, it is difficult to see clearly what the huge twisted and wriggling darkness is, is it scales? Is it a figure? Or pupils?

Can't see clearly, and no one knows.

But among all the panic, there are still a few people who remain unmoved.

"Quiet, gentlemen and ladies, please be quiet."

In the bright banquet, a middle-aged man spoke.

His clothes are meticulous and his style is calm, which seems to prove the seriousness and seriousness of the owner of the clothes. His voice was steady, his tone was calm, and his sharp eyes like an eagle slowly scanned the people around him. The original exclamations and whispers of those who were stared at by him could not help but lower.

The people who were originally uneasy and fearful regained order under his gaze.

Then, the middle-aged man raised the wine glass in his hand and said loudly.

"Laugh, laugh! Joyous people, noble people, proud people, laugh, laugh, before this death comes, let us laugh. Ladies and gentlemen, let us remain decent in the face of death."

Along with his words, the music that had stopped suddenly began to sound. The cheerful tunes dispersed the confusion, and people started dancing again.

Everyone was dancing amid the spiritual energy fluctuations that were spreading due to happiness. This cheerful atmosphere was enough to infect everyone, except for the little girl next to the middle-aged man who was a little confused.

Children are so immature that they feel so new about everything. They have not yet become accustomed to this colorful world due to familiarity and have lost their keen insight. Therefore, in the eyes of the public, their subtle perception of spiritual energy is even comparable to those of demigods.

In the girl's perception, she can feel the happiness in the hearts of the guests. This happiness is so passionate, bright, dazzling and colorful, just like the beach in summer. However, in the deepest part of this happy ocean, she vaguely felt a kind of darkness.

Fear, despair, madness, hysteria...

The girl sensed all this, but it made her even more confused.

Why? Obviously everyone is so happy, why are there these dark emotions? Is all this happiness just an illusion?

"What's wrong, Sarah?"

Beside him, the man held his daughter's hand, lowered his head and spoke softly.

But holding the man's big hand, the girl felt something more. What the man's hand conveyed to her was not a sense of security, but forced calmness and fear.

Yes, her father, the middle-aged man who was encouraging just now, was actually very uneasy in his heart.

"dad."

The girl raised her head and said weakly.

The middle-aged man saw the girl's little thoughts and just said softly.

"I'm sorry for letting you see it. But, Sha..."

Touching his daughter's cheek with his hand, feeling the tenderness that had not yet grown up, the middle-aged man suddenly laughed.

"Laugh, laugh, don't show such a hesitant expression, Sarah, smile happily. Even if death is ahead of you, don't be cowardly, face it bravely, stay decent in the face of death, it's okay to cry when you look down. Looks good.”

The middle-aged man held his daughter's hand and began to lead her in the dance.

At the grand banquet, the music was peaceful and the atmosphere was joyful. People were dancing and laughing, but above this happy head, a deep and huge darkness was pressing down.

But, laugh, proud people, laugh happily, even if we cannot live, let us dance in front of death.

"Don't be afraid! Descendants of the earth, our homeland has arrived. Our flesh and blood will be destroyed, and our souls will be reborn in the father of the snake..."

In the chaotic city, under the impact just now, the self-discipline machinery here has lost its command, and a large number of people have broken through the stay-at-home order and are running like headless rats. Among them, there are some strange people standing on high places, constantly shouting.

The earth beneath your feet was trembling slightly, and at the end of the sky, the huge darkness was approaching.

If someone looks from space, they can see a huge and infinite snake gnawing at the ring world.

It opened its big mouth and gnawed greedily, swallowing lakes and oceans, mountains and canyons, forests and glaciers, whether it was cities or wilderness, everything on the earth was falling into its mouth.

The huge ring world is undergoing an unprecedented impact. This powerful force makes the entire ring world tremble. Many cities have been destroyed by the inadvertent movements of darkness before darkness falls.

This world with 20 billions of human beings has fallen into chaos.

And not far away, in a seaside residence.

An old man in gray robe silently watched everything in front of him, this crazy world.

At the end of the sea and the sky, dark clouds were gathering, thunder and lightning rolled, and the occasional flash of white light cut through the dim world, but it could only illuminate the even greater and terrifying darkness above the sky.

The darkness moved slowly outside the sky, its hugeness covering the entire sky, and above the entire sky was the faint darkness.

"Prophet, your subspace transmission channel is ready."

The old man was unmoved and just asked.

"Did everyone else evacuate?"

"Most of the demigods who are still stationed have now evacuated, and a few are preparing to evacuate."

Behind the old man in gray robe, a tall and thin officer said humbly.

After that, there was silence, and the officer who had not received the next order could only continue to wait.

Psychic warriors are demigods, but what about the psionic masters who teach these demigods? He is the prophet closest to God. Except for the legendary emperor, these psychic masters are gods in people's eyes.

But there are things that neither the emperor nor the psychic master can do.

The man in gray robe crossed his hands and pondered for a long time.

"I won't leave."

"What?"

The officer was surprised and said hurriedly.

"I've given up on 20 billions of human beings and watched them die, and I still have to run away to survive. Isn't it shameful?"

The man in gray robe was talking to himself.

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked up at the sky, where the huge and deep darkness was slowly falling.

He knew that the giant snake had swallowed the adjacent Ring World area into its belly and was about to reach this area.

"Prophet, you shouldn't blame yourself for this, you did your best."

The officer behind him hurriedly persuaded.

But the man in gray robe glanced at him. In the deep and dark pupils, the void was flowing, and the incredible spiritual world appeared before the officer's eyes, causing him to stop speaking involuntarily.

"No, kid, I deserve this."

After that, the old man in gray robe waved his hand, and the officer felt dizzy for a while. When he regained his sight, he and his colleagues around him had already appeared in the center of a bustling interstellar city.

For a demigod, it is really easy for someone to teleport away from the planet, unless it doesn't want to.

But now, the prophet doesn't want to.

He just looked at the too deep and dark thing above the sky and fell into silence.

"Believe, believe in yourself, believe in your own courage and wisdom, and fight with all your strength. Only in this way can the brilliant light burst out and hope to defeat the beast and defeat this fateful duel."

Many years ago, the emperor once said this to himself.

But later, the emperor who said such words was still seriously injured and defeated in the battle with the monster, fled back to his own time, and died of his injuries, which ultimately led to the collapse of the First Empire.

Even though the emperor said so, the masters still chose to escape, breaking with the Second Republic completely, distorting history, and creating the Third Reich - an empire that respects the emperor of the past time and space as its emperor.

Husoluan often comforted himself, even the emperor cannot defeat the monster, what can we do?

But he knew that he was actually just afraid. He was afraid of the monster.

Maybe it was when the emperor died, or maybe it was when he was infected into a snake man and created the earliest snake worshiping religion. The shadow and fear of monsters frightened him.

Ridiculous, even if I was rescued from the edge of snake transformation by the emperor, could I still not forget that fear? Is this also a psychic master?

Countless thoughts emerged in my mind and were silently examined by myself.

But in front of me, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the abnormal weather made the thunderstorms more intense.

"Boom!!!"

White light filled the sky and the earth, and roaring thunder sounded immediately.

His pupils stared at the furious sky and the dark sea. At the end of the sky, a huge body connecting the heaven and the earth was already looming.

"I've been afraid and running away for half my life, but now I suddenly don't want to run away anymore. Come on, let me see what you are."

He held the window edge tightly with both hands, gritted his teeth, and opened his deep and dark pupils, staring angrily at the darkness above the sky.

"boom!!!!"

Amidst the deafening thunder, huge darkness collapsed from the sky.

The big thing, the greedy thing, the thing he had feared all his life, had finally arrived.

And when the sky collapsed, in the city, someone drank the last drop of wine, then aimed it at his head, letting it explode into the last firework; someone was worshiping the sky, fearful and muttering words; Some people are smashing things with abandon, and some people are silently tidying up the room, walking into the sleep cabin as usual every day, and saying "good night" to the world before falling asleep...

There are all kinds of things in the world.

And at this doomsday moment...

On a small hill, a young man looked at the huge darkness above the sky. He clenched his baseball bat with both hands and made a batting posture.

And when the darkness collapsed, the young man swung his last stick with all his strength.

"Bang..."

The moment the boy was swallowed by darkness, he vaguely heard a crisp sound.

He hit the "ball".
