NOVEL NEXT Chapter 341 He's Already Dead
At this moment, after learning that name, Xiao Yi suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart.
It was as if... he had retrieved the last piece of the puzzle that made up his past life, making his life up to now complete...
At this moment, in Xiao Yi's heart, there truly was no longer anything to doubt, he could now focus solely on accomplishing his final purpose of returning to Blue Star.
Perhaps due to the clarity of his visualization, Xiao Yi even felt that his ability had somewhat improved from before, regaining some of his original strength.
"Thank you, Muyao..." Xiao Yi said to Luo Muyao, "This name... I remember it."
"No..." Luo Muyao was still smiling, she said, "I don't understand... why you are thanking me, but now is not the time to continue talking about these things..."
"Alright..." Xiao Yi nodded, "Soon... I will end all of this."
"Since that's the case, then I won't keep you any longer, go on..."
"Okay..."
Xiao Yi nodded, then without saying anything more, he turned and left.
He had already instructed those people to take good care of Luo Muyao, at least she was safe here for the time being.
But he could not guarantee her safety afterward, as those monsters were still roaming the world, and one might breach this place at any time.
This was the same for everyone around the world.
The only way to ensure absolute safety was to exterminate all the enemies... unfortunately, Xiao Yi was currently unable to do such a thing, his only option now was to head to the Tower.
Therefore, understanding this, Xiao Yi's steps were incredibly firm, and he did not look back even once.
Watching Xiao Yi's departing figure, Luo Muyao softly and slowly said,
"Goodbye, I wish you a safe journey..."
Luo Muyao slightly opened her mouth, as if wanting to say something more, but hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not speak.
...
With that, Xiao Yi immediately embarked on the road to the Capital of Dragon Country.
Since the Tower had appeared from the Capital, the entrance to the Tower must definitely be there... that's what Xiao Yi believed.
So, after asking others for directions, he immediately set off.
Also, thanks to the well-developed infrastructure of Dragon Country, with several expressways leading directly to the Capital, Xiao Yi could thus reach the Capital at the highest speed.
"...speaking of which, the closer I get to the Capital, the larger the Tower seems to become, is this the so-called principle of perspective? And this can also indirectly confirm that I am indeed approaching the Tower..."
Looking at the Tower that almost filled the entire sky, Xiao Yi slightly furrowed his brows.
Still unsure of what he would encounter inside the Tower... it was better to remain cautious.
"Sigh... should I consult with someone before entering the Tower to see if anyone knows about it?"
Xiao Yi remembered that there was also a human settlement in the Capital; just uncertain if anyone was still alive there.
If the Tower had emerged there, given the size of the Tower, it probably almost destroyed the entire city.
Under such devastating destruction, whether anyone could survive was indeed a question.
"...Hmm, speaking of which, Old Xu seemed to be in the Capital... He probably hasn't just passed away, has he?"
As for the best person to discuss this with, Xiao Yi first thought of Xu Yingguang, although since then, Xiao Yi had not been able to contact Xu Yingguang.
Xu Yingguang... might really be gone.
"Sigh...No, I shouldn't jump to conclusions like that, making it sound like I'm cursing him. I'd better get to the Capital first and look for people... Based on my understanding of Old Xu, he doesn't like being uninformed and would have set up a network of intelligence as soon as possible. If he's still alive, he would surely have surveillance points set up all over the city, and he would contact me the moment I enter the Capital."
With this thought, Xiao Yi immediately increased his speed, speeding along the deserted road.
It wasn't long before Xiao Yi arrived within the bounds of the Capital.
Upon entering the Capital, he was indeed attacked by many monsters that seemed to be left behind in the area, but for Xiao Yi, that was hardly a trouble; he quickly cleared those monsters.
However, upon entering the Capital, every road was clogged with vehicles, and even the sidewalks were no different, with no space left to allow another car through.
Xiao Yi, having no other choice, had to abandon his car and proceed on foot.
But luckily, since he had now arrived at the Capital, near the location of the Tower, there wasn't much need for a car anymore.
And that so-called Tower, at this moment in Xiao Yi's eyes, almost filled the entire sky, the entire sky was covered, with only a circle of the horizon on the sides emitting a faint light, the whole Capital was without any other light source, all was dim.
"This is truly a classic apocalyptic scene..." Xiao Yi remarked, "It's a pity that what's floating in the sky isn't an alien fleet or something, just a Tower, it feels somewhat off..."
From this, Xiao Yi finally realized, the Tower wasn't rooted on the ground, but floating in the sky, hovering over the Capital.
