I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1621 - 1147: Bereft of Defiant Resolve

The sudden red alert completely dispelled Zheng Yichen’s thoughts of petting the fox. He immediately left the area he was in and came to the outside of the Firmament Wheel.

The sky approaching night was now completely dark, not the kind of darkness that comes with nightfall, but a colorless darkness.

"Is this the influence of the Dark Ring?" Zheng Yichen looked at his outstretched hands, in this dark environment even his hands were invisible.

Even Zheng Yichen, without special vision, could not see his hand at arm’s length in normal vision.

All that emitted light was swallowed by darkness, and everything fell into silence. In such an environment, even direction couldn’t be normally distinguished.

"Again?" Without any hesitation, Zheng Yichen immediately used the Alien Phenomenon manifestation to disperse the darkness enveloping Hazy City. Even so, many people inside Hazy City were severely affected mentally.

The darkness was not Oblivion, but such things were residues after World Destruction, akin to ashes left when a world burns out.

The ashes laden with despair had a severe impact on ordinary people.

Crunch, crunch—

A sound of compression resounded, reminiscent to Zheng Yichen of the process of a monster devouring its prey.

"What’s going on?" Julie and others also came to Zheng Yichen’s courtyard. The moment darkness covered Hazy City, they reacted and tried to disperse the darkness, but the result wasn’t very good.

Julie, through a curse technique, plundered part of the darkness and obtained some remnants of ashes. Recently, she researched a curse that could curse the world, which allowed her to deepen the curse intensity on the world.

It’s something good for her, but using such things brings intense backlash unless she could ignore the Chaotic Sea Water like Zheng Yichen, the backlash could then be ignored.

Now she can only withstand the backlash and reduce some of the impact.

She hadn’t gathered much of the dark remnants when Zheng Yichen already dispersed the darkness.

"I don’t know, did you hear any sound?" Zheng Yichen asked Julie and the others.

Julie shook her head, "No, what kind of sound?"

"The kind of sound when Tanshia Firlo gnaws on stones."

"I’ve never gnawed on stones!" The small white dragon, maintaining its dragon form, loudly refuted. Near Zheng Yichen’s home, not only was there a small white dragon, but the four green dragons had also resumed their dragon forms.

The presence of the True God intimidated the unruly existences within Hazy City.

"It’s just a form of expression."

An earth-yellow figure flickered and arrived. Du Gang, the Proxy Agent not good at speed, seemed to have mastered a new power, compensating for his lack of speed.

Arriving here, Du Gang said in a deep voice, "I asked the Dusk nun, the World Barrier of this world is entwined with the remnants of World Destruction, and the World Barrier will be weakened or even removed by these remnants."

"Is this considered Breakworld?" Lin Yaoyao asked in confusion.

Du Gang shook his head, "No, the Boundary Breakers haven’t implanted a Boundary Breaking core in this world. The remnants of World Destruction directly make contact from outside and are considered a man-made natural disaster..."

Natural disasters are likely brought by the Boundary Breakers, but the method used by Boundary Breakers completely bypassed Dusk’s protective mechanisms.

They haven’t implanted a Boundary Breaking core inside the world, nor have they inserted one into the surface of the World Barrier. They simply gathered the remnants of World Destruction.

By fundamentally weakening the World Barrier, even if someone stepped up to solve the problem, there would be no target to address the issue unless they could cleanse the Remnant Ashes of Annihilation widely.

"Feeling indignant?" Wu Lingluo, still maintaining her demonic beast form, asked Zheng Yichen.

"Indeed." Zheng Yichen nodded, he did a lot, but the enemy directly used larger external tricks to cause trouble.

He was confident in eliminating various hidden dangers within the world, so the enemy understood this and simply acted from outside the world.

"Things can’t always go your way. How long has the Boundary Breaking Organization developed? How long have you grown?" Wu Lingluo seemed to be very open-minded, gazing at the pitch-black sky, under the guise of destructive darkness, the whole world became lifeless.

"This counts as my native world, forget it... we’ve come this far, I want to see what more the Boundary Breakers can do—let’s go to Dusk."

The Firmament Wheel fully spread out, lighting up several light screens before Zheng Yichen: "Do you want to go or stay?"

"Go to Dusk?" Ahn Longling realized something and immediately asked.

Her sister couldn’t ask this question; Ahn Qi didn’t have the adaptation to Dusk and just ignored anything related to Dusk.

"The World’s Barrier has been weakened, possibly even shattered; if you want to avoid this crisis, it’s best to go to the Dusk Territory."

"Got it." Ahn Longling’s efficiency was high, as for the issue of being too far from Zheng Yichen, that wasn’t much of a problem. The range can be directly ’teleportation’ by the Firmament Wheel.

As for who to take away, it wasn’t difficult to solve. After Zheng Yichen talked to her, a projection of Lilith appeared to connect with her.

As for her sister without Dusk adaptation, she could just be taken away directly.

"A calm judgment, indeed. Let’s move quickly," Wu Lingluo smiled, "The rest can wait until Dusk."

If the world’s barrier is truly removed, then the one responsible for all this must be prepared to take over this world.

The complete merging of two worlds—let’s not even mention the shockwave it will cause—there’s bound to be one less Dusk.

Our world being swallowed means our Dusk is very likely to be replaced.

This is very disadvantageous for us. Trapped in the Great World and situated far from Dusk, it’s predictable what Zheng Yichen will face as a major adversary of Dusk.

They aren’t afraid of dying, but there’s no need to waste their preserved chances. It’s best to go to Dusk Territory. If their Dusk is replaced, they’ll be moved to the newly established Dusk Territory.

"Your big wheel has true foresight," Julie remarked, looking up at the giant Firmament Wheel in the sky, now replaced by the Fantasy Great Array Formation.

The Firmament Wheel manifested by the Fantasy Great Array Formation synchronizes with the original, connected through the Dream Realm. Everything transferred can sync within the Firmament Wheel.

"Initially, I just wanted to prepare a well-functioning logistical base."

Julie nodded with a light chuckle, "I understand, fighting alone all the time isn’t a good feeling, and Dusk seldom gives us a chance to team up."

Proxy Agents always act alone unless executing an Extermination Order.

They can train Dusk mercenaries to act with them. As for the merit points the Dusk mercenaries might lack, Proxy Agents can provide them. Yet, the biggest issue remains the growth speed of the Dusk mercenaries.

Zheng Yichen has grown to such an extent in three years, Liu Hongzhao and the rest haven’t been cultivating as long as Zheng Yichen, but they initially received far more resources.

Even now, it’s difficult for them to serve as a mainstay in high-end battles that Zheng Yichen participates in.

Of course, if they’re not at Zheng Yichen’s level, then they are top-tier themselves.

"This world is truly plagued with disasters... No, ever since the Boundary Breakers learned of this place, the outcome was already set, wasn’t it?" The bartender, who arrived at some point, had a slightly melancholic expression.

He waited until Zheng Yichen’s conversation was nearly finished before joining.

"So you’re planning to relocate your base?"

The bartender smiled wryly, "We’ll see. Although it might seem opportunistic, if we’re to face the Great World head-on without Dusk, we can only give up."

The bartender’s message was clear: if this world’s Dusk is replaced and they are moved to another Dusk without Hazy City’s environment, then there’s no need to pursue so many endeavors.

As things stand, if they transfer to another Dusk, it’s likely one native to the Great World. Why stay here then?

They can’t even exit the doors; it’s better to change locations sooner.

This sudden change caught them off guard, with many things not yet transferred.

If the native Dusk isn’t replaced, they can still try to do something.

"Then let’s wait and see." Zheng Yichen stood at the entrance of Dusk Territory, looking through the annihilative darkness that seeped into Misty City World, towards the sky where the Alien Phenomenon manifestation had dispelled the initial darkness, with the Holy Domain’s protection preventing further annihilative darkness.

"I’m going out to take a look!"

"Eh, eh? You were quite calm just now. Why so excited now?" Julie promptly blocked Zheng Yichen, "You’re so heated up, should I take you to cool down?"

"...Considering the timing, let’s discuss that later."

"Then collect more Remnant Ashes of Annihilation," Julie suggested, seeing Zheng Yichen’s resolved attitude and didn’t press further. She lightly licked her lips, "If you gather enough, I might help you cast a dangerous curse on this world. With your help, the curse will surely be powerful!"

"What do I need to give in return?"

"You definitely won’t lose anything," Julie said enthusiastically, giving Zheng Yichen a push out of Dusk Territory’s entrance, "Hurry up, I’m waiting for your good news."

Collecting Remnant Ashes of Annihilation isn’t difficult; her curse technique can extract them. Zheng Yichen isn’t skilled in curse techniques, but his willpower interference allows him to directly affect reality, also acquiring the necessary components.

"Understood. Do any of you need anything?" Zheng Yichen asked the others.

"This darkness likely won’t bring anything else, right?" Wu Lingluo lightly rubbed her tail against Zheng Yichen, "Can you come back?"

"I also have preserved chances; this thing takes away the sense of bravely facing death."

"Hahaha, it does take away the grand sense of facing death, but it makes people unafraid of dying, bold enough to do things usually requiring facing death head-on."

If they have the courage to face death, then having fearlessness toward it gives them nothing to stop them!

If Zheng Yichen used his preserved chances to cause trouble, he’d be the most dangerous one.

"I’m just going out to take a look. Maybe there’s some good news. I’ll bring back what you want right away."
