Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Absolute Moment, or rather, the Mutator's shortcoming was also manifest at this moment—the excessive dependence on items.

Zhou Baiyu seemed to have already seen his own dead end. How much longer could he hold on?

The blade that severed despair had become dulled, the spear that pierced fate had shattered, and the sword that punctured the night had decayed.

The objects on his body dwindled. So did his chances of victory.

The gap between him and the eternal darkness, the Night Demon, was just too vast... no matter how many tools he created, in the realm of dreams the eternal darkness possessed endless nightmare beasts.

Just when Zhou Baiyu himself thought that the light upon him would gradually fade away...

That light, far from fading, became brighter and more blinding!

High above, the vortex that had stopped spreading and even began to collapse, incredibly started to diffuse once more!

Only a moment was needed; the intense light surpassed all rule-based tools, vaporizing the surrounding nightmares one by one!

Zhou Baiyu turned back incredulously, his eyes filling with tears in an instant.

He witnessed a scene that he had thought impossible—an array of stars more splendid than any!

Minutes ago.

After seeing the sign of life emerging from death, Wuxin was the first to tear up his prison garb, bursting forth with light.

People around looked at Wuxin as if he were a fool.

But then another fool appeared; Xinkui also tore up his prison clothes, emitting his own light.

In the endless darkness, they were like two naive insects trying to illuminate the night with the light of fireflies.

"He hasn't lost yet! At least he has blocked off the Sea of Night for us!"

"Yun Duo, wake everyone up, you must wake them up, don't let Jiang Xianwu... guard the moon alone!"

Wuxin's words, like a light splitting the night, made Yun Duo finally remember.

All the words clogged by nightfall, the pent-up hatred for and dread of the night over the years, the mourning and grief for those lost, the yearning and longing for the light...

All erupted in this moment, along with the girl's unwillingness:

"Burn, burn! Don't just linger in this darkness anymore! I want to see the moon!"

"He's fighting desperately for us!"

What must Zhou Baiyu be feeling now?

Behind him were humans who, merely at the sight, were so frightened they couldn't see any light again, facing the vast darkness alone with not a single light shining for him... When Jin Yi failed, did he have similar regrets?

The thought made Yun Duo's heart fill with both sorrow and indignation:

"I can't accept this! I simply can't! I don't want to die without seeing what this world is like! Please, I beg you, believe in him, go and believe in Jiang Xianwu!"

The girl's mournful cry reverberated through the night, striking at the hearts of all.

As the figure in the sky continued to ascend against the current, more and more people, as if forgetting the terror of nightmares, tore off their prison garments.

Humanity's hope flickered like a candle flame in a snowstorm, threatening to be extinguished at any moment, but as long as the wick and the spark remained, it could always be relit.

Watching more and more people radiate light in the darkness, Luo Hui was shocked by "foolishness" for the first time.

Had these people gone mad? Did they not understand that the Sea of Night had appeared, that an invincible nightmare had emerged?

"Reason" kept telling him miracles might indeed exist, but certainly not for someone like himself.

But thoughts of his parents, his love, his friends, all the beautiful things in life surged uncontrollably before him!

"Damn! Damn! Why am I hoping for something that is bound to fail?"

Luo Hui, who prided himself on being cold-hearted, gazed at the brightening light, at the figure in the sky; for the first time... he felt his blood burning.

It was also the first time he tried to cast his reason aside, letting those potentially destructive lights shine unrestrained.

Scattered beams of light kept multiplying and seen from above the Sea of Night, what was initially a sea of darkness began to show a few firefly glows, then dozens of flickering candles.

Like the tough historical journey of human civilization through darkness, firefly glows, dozens of candles, to thousands of home lights, and even to a heaven full of shining stars, humanity's steps never cease.

"So, this is to grow out of death," Zhou Baiyu's eyes shone with tears, when the vortex finally converged into a "gate"...

He pointed at the eternal darkness sitting on the throne, overseeing the human world.

"Eternal darkness, your era will not begin, I will bury you along with your ambition and this expanse of night," Zhou Baiyu declared.

Countless nightmare beasts charged toward Zhou Baiyu, swept toward the crowd below the ground.

But it was all too late.

The eternal darkness on the throne finally rose, but even it could not extinguish these lights.

The moment Zhou Baiyu's figure turned ethereal, it became clear. It could not stop this human from leaving, and the next battlefield would be a confrontation with this human in reality.

For the first time, it felt fear.

The man's gaze was terrifying. What kind of look was it?

It was as if saying, do you want me to pull out my spine? Do you want me to burn my blood? Do you want me to tear my flesh? All is possible, but I must let the light dispel the darkness.

No one had ever dared to show such defiant eyes in the darkness.

But when someone did... the eternal darkness remembered a truth it had understood when it was weakest—
