Inside the female giant's body, everyone was nervous and worried. When Yani activated "Crystallization" and the surrounding flesh and blood turned into sparkling diamond crystals, they knew that Requiem was about to explode.
"Oh no! Yani is in danger! "
Seeing the cracked and broken lines spread out in all directions like a spider web, Lin Xi's heart instantly jumped.
"Bang!"
Countless crystal shards rained down like hail.
Everyone fell to the ground.
Lin Xi opened his arms and hugged a falling body.
"Yani, she's not dead!"
Yani, who had always been dispirited and valiant, lay in Lin Xi's arms weakly. When she realized that the female giant's outer shell had collapsed and the girl's main body was fine, Dong Qing, who had a good relationship with her, heaved a long sigh of relief.
But …
Lin Xi's gaze froze.
Glimmers that were as bright as stardust seeped out from the girl's body.
Descended bosses, normal monsters, and mercenaries would not leave a corpse when they died. Instead, they would turn into light and disappear.
With a rare look of weakness, the golden-haired girl looked at Lin Xi and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. But in the next second … her body shattered like a bubble. Countless light spots quietly scattered into the air.
Lin Xi still maintained the action of hugging the girl, but there was nothing in his arms.
A crystal, fell on his hand.
Crystal.
It was the size of a palm, crystal clear, and the inside of it shone with a colorful light.
As a descended boss, Yani was killed by another boss, the Deathsinger. In theory, there should not be anything left.
But now, there was a crystal.
The teardrop-like crystal seemed to still have the warmth and longing of the girl.
Lin Xi was a little breathless. He held the crystal tightly and took a deep breath. Then, he kept the crystal in his inventory.
Because the Requiem Song had absorbed the Umbra Cloud's energy, the dark clouds covering the sky had disappeared, revealing a bright full moon.
Beneath his feet, the grayish-black scorched earth was filled with a rotten and dark aura.
Looking around, on the barren land, there were more than ten figures standing alone, their shadows hanging off each other.
Dong Qing, Ally, Wang Feifei, Ning Shuixin, and Su Hongying.
Xiao Qiang, Zhen Tian, Wang Wei, and the three members of the Beast Squad.
Lin Xi couldn't help but activate Hagi Hyuk and fly into the air to look into the distance. He discovered that Lu Zhou City had already been completely reduced to ruins.
"Dead, they're all dead …"
As he landed on the ground, his voice trembled along with his body.
The Luzhou colony was finished, just like that.
Zong Hou was dead, and so was Yanni.
Lin Xi could no longer feel the sorrow and pain in his heart. All that was left was numbness and indifference.
Millions of civilians, millions of people …
"Uncle Zong!
Zhen Tian and Wang Wei knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. Along the way, they had received much care from Zong Hou, and this time, they had survived under his protection. This uncle who carried the creed of knights and was worthy of respect had died just like that.
As a two-star talent, he had protected six people from the Forbidden Spell!
Shadow Island, Lord of the Undead, Karsus, was filled with displeasure. He had used the forbidden spell Requiem and borrowed the power of the Terminator's Hat, the Killer Book, and the Shadow Black Cloud. Yet, such a powerful spell had not been able to kill everyone.
As for the Undead Army, why did they die under the Requiem? It was nothing. The scorched earth was filled with the corpses of the dead. As long as magic was used to catalyze it, new undead would be born very quickly.
On the ground, Xiao Qiang turned around and looked at the people who were crying. "Don't cry … Men can only cry when everything is over."
"The Undead Army that surrounded us has disappeared. You guys should quickly escape. This is a good opportunity. Don't waste time with pointless sorrow. Being able to escape is the greatest reward for Zong Hou. Don't let the sacrifice go to waste. "
"Let's go together!" Old Cow wiped away the turbid tears at the corner of his eyes.
"Someone must stay behind to stop the pursuit of the Undead Army."
The earth moved, and the Undead Army started to emerge from the ground. These Undead Army did not survive the Requiem Forbidden Spell. Instead, they were summoned again by the spells of the Death Masters of the Shadow Island.
"Just now, when I saw the Forbidden Spell, I actually felt fear … As a man who dreams of becoming the strongest on Earth, I am so weak."
Xiao Qiang's voice was very calm, but it contained an unshakable determination. "This time, I will not escape. I don't want to live in shame and decadence for the rest of my life … Hurry, there are more and more Undead Army. If we continue to delay, we will be surrounded again."
Lin Xi also spoke. "Xiao Qiang is right. Hurry up and escape … Su Hongying, please take care of Ally, Wang Feifei, Ning Shuixin, and Dong Qing in the future."
"Father!" Ally grabbed the corner of her father's shirt.
The other women all had anxious and panicked expressions on their faces.
"Lin Xi, I will stay behind."
"Uncle Xiao, don't forget that I was the one who killed Hecarim and the other Bosses. Do you think Karsus, Hammerstone, and Mordor Caesar will let me leave alive?" Lin Xi smiled. "Moreover, Death Song can fly. You can't stop him."
He placed Mai Shiranui, who was in his inventory, outside.
"Don't worry, I might not die! Mai Shiranui and I have a connection. She will know if I am alive or dead. Hurry up and go! After leaving Luzhou, go to the Jinling colony. If I am alive, I will go there to find you. "
"I have Hagi Hyuk to fly. There is a high chance that I will survive. If you stay, you will have to worry."
Seeing that the girls were still dawdling, Lin Xi was angry. "Get lost!"
"Go!"
Su Hongying gritted her teeth and held Ally in her arms. Dong Qing also pulled Ning Shuixin and Wang Feifei. Mai Shiranui's body trembled. She looked at her master and said, "You must live!"
The Beast Squad, Zhen Tian, Wang Wei, Su Hongying, and the girls ran away. However, they stopped after running for a while.
They had earned a lot of points from killing the Undead for several hours. They took out all of them and exchanged them for two Dwarven Chariots from Hobbit 3. The girls took one, and Zhen Tian and Wang Wei took the other. They drove the chariot pulled by the Rock Goat and quickly escaped.
"Kid, why did you have to steal my limelight? Leave this kind of thing to a man like me." Xiao Qiang looked at the Undead that kept crawling out of the scorched land.
Lin Xi stuffed chocolate into his mouth. "Uncle Xiao, actually, you can escape … I think the Shadow Island's bosses won't be very interested in you. Leaving me here is enough."
"If I escape, how can I live up to my dreams?" Xiao Qiang shook his head and sighed.
"But … if I stay, at least I have a chance to escape … You will definitely die."
"In this world, who can escape death? It's fine to die. What's more, you can't be like a flame, releasing light and heat to the world. That's the saddest thing. Do you still remember what I said? "
Xiao Qiang's voice was a little low. He seemed to be reminiscing.
"When I was young, I had a once-in-a-lifetime dream. That was to become the strongest man on Earth. It was a ridiculous and childish dream to others, but even when I was 30 years old, I never forgot it. "
"Even if I can't achieve my dream of becoming the strongest on Earth, at least now, I can die on the path to becoming the strongest."
More and more Undead appeared. A dark aura spread out, and even the air became heavy. Looking at the gathering Undead, Lin Xi couldn't help but worry whether Su Hongying and the rest of the Beast Team could escape from Luzhou City.
The only thing that was comforting was that with Lin Xi and Xiao Qiang staying, there were no bosses on Shadow Island chasing after them.
A cigarette was passed over.
"This is the last one. Want it?"
Lin Xi waved his hand. Xiao Qiang put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it with a lighter, and smoked the wrinkled cigarette into ashes in a few puffs.
"Yani … Zong Hou, and the tens of millions of people in Luzhou City … I have to take revenge. I'm going to Shadow Island to find the Song of Death. I'll leave the Undead on the ground to you alone."
"Hey, kid, don't die before me. I'll look down on you if you do."
"You too."
"Hehe." Xiao Qiang stuck out a thumb and pointed at himself.
"You're a real man, no problem!"
Flesh explosion to strengthen the body.
Mastery!
He activated every muscle in his body and unleashed his special ability. The original limit of his body was 80%, but after being modified by the super potion, he could barely reach 100%. During the journey away from Luzhou City, he had unleashed his ability to 120%.
If not for Lv Lingling's high-level healing spell: Yuan Spirit Return, his body would have collapsed and he would have died.
Now.
Muscle explosion of 120%, 150%, 200% …
He squeezed out every bit of potential in his body. His originally tall and strong body expanded violently. His muscle fibers wriggled, twisted, and expanded like earthworms under his skin!
Muscle explosion of 250%, 300% …
"Ahhhh …"
Xiao Qiang roared in pain. He disregarded the consequences and activated Flesh Explosion to strengthen his body. Every inch of his skin and flesh was torn. It was as if he was smashed into pieces and thrown into a washing machine. The intense pain was comparable to the death of a thousand cuts for Jian Zhi!
His muscles grew at a crazy rate. His torso had already stretched to three meters tall. His muscle fibers were like steel wires twisting and turning.
Finally …
Muscle explosion of 500%!
Xiao Qiang, who had stabilized in this extreme state, no longer looked like a human. He had completely turned into a muscle monster.
The surface of his body, especially his shoulders and back, was covered with steel rods that were nearly half a meter long — a large number of densely packed root-like protrusions. They were the transverse growth of the biceps and latissimus dorsi muscles!
On his abdomen, more than twenty abdominal muscles were like grayish-white rocks entwined with steel cables. Both sides were spread out in arcs. Because of the compression, the muscle fibers were violently bursting out.
The five-meter-tall muscular giant looked like the mighty Giant God Soldier in Yu-Gi-Oh! But even if the giant god added up all the muscles in its body, it would not be as strong as one of the giant's arms.
"Now is the most glorious moment of my life!"
Feeling the destructive power in his body, Xiao Qiang raised his head, which was buried in the bulging muscles. Only his facial features could be vaguely seen. He roared.
"Guys on the Shadow Island, open your eyes and take a good look! I … Xiao Qiang, dream of becoming the strongest man on Earth. I will burn with brilliant flames at the last moment of my life! If you still have the dignity of a strong man, come down and stand in front of me! "
The thunderous roar echoed between the heavens and the earth.
