The roars of the monsters and the sounds of the battle were faintly discernible.
The beautiful and sorrowful melody and the singing that was getting louder and louder echoed in the sky above the city. It was like a declaration of war against an unfortunate fate.
As Cyber listened, he gradually began to sing along. His eyes were in a trance, and he was faintly dazed.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. At the same time, he clenched his fists.
Although his heart was still filled with doubts about the past of these elves.
Although there were still many unanswered questions about what happened in the past two days.
But at this moment, Cyber had made up his mind. No matter what … he must save these elves!
Although he was a fan of leisure, he was never a fan of the plot.
But at this moment, for the first time, he strongly hoped that these elves could be like his companions in the Elven Forest. They could enjoy the warm sunlight and eat delicious food.
It was said that singing was the best way to convey emotions.
He could feel the bitterness and pain of these elves from their songs. He could feel their hope for a better future, and he could feel their devotion to the goddess …
Such an existence deserved to be saved.
"But … what should I do? Why haven't I triggered the mission yet? "
"System, even if there is no reward, hurry up and trigger the mission to save them. Hurry up and point me in the right direction!"
Cyber shouted in his heart.
However, when he focused his attention on the game system, he still looked like he was half-dead.
For a moment, he even had the impulse to commit suicide and re-enter the game to see if he could return to normal.
But when he thought about how he could return to this elven city after being resurrected, he could only suppress his temper and endure it.
At least … he had to wait until the Black Tide passed.
At least … he had to wait until the elf named Gando brought him to the temple!
Perhaps when he went to the temple and revealed his identity, everything would be solved!
And when he logged out of the game and uploaded the automatically recorded video to the official website, he would definitely receive the help of other players!
At this moment, Cyber did not want any reward.
But at this moment, accompanied by the sound of a string breaking, the singing stopped abruptly.
Cyber was slightly startled. He looked at Dolly, who was playing the harp. Dolly suddenly curled up and trembled.
This frost elf coughed violently. Every time he coughed, he would spit out black liquid, and the sarcoma on his face trembled as though there were countless worms under it.
He clawed at the ground, his sharp nails digging into the floor. The pustules on his head cracked and yellow pus flowed out continuously.
"Daddy!"
Estelle grasped Dolei's clothes tightly, looking nervous and worried.
But this time, Duo Lei suddenly pushed her to the ground.
He was very strong and pushed the elven girl more than a meter away.
"Don't … Don't come near me!"
He growled in pain.
Cyber's expression changed.
Just as he was about to stand up, he suddenly felt something burning at his waist.
He subconsciously looked down and saw that it was the silver dagger given to him by the old elf, Gando.
At this moment, this dagger made of mithril was shining with a silver radiance.
It was a Mithril weapon with the [Purification] effect, which would naturally change when it got close to a corrupted Abyssal creature.
This was a warning.
Cyber was slightly startled and suddenly looked at Duo Lei, only to see that there was a black mist rising from his body.
Cyber couldn't be more familiar with that aura.
"The power of the abyss …"
He murmured with a grave expression.
This taciturn frost elf was quickly being corroded by the power of the Abyss, quickly falling into depravity and corruption!
At this time, he suddenly understood the meaning behind Gan Duo's words before he left.
Duo Lei's expression was painful.
He let out a beast-like roar, and his eyes were gradually dyed with a layer of red.
The aura on his body continued to rise, becoming more and more dangerous …
"Daddy!"
Estelle got up from the ground and looked at Duo Lei with panic in her eyes.
Hearing her voice, Duo Lei's eyes flashed with a trace of clarity.
He looked at Estelle with guilt and said with a hoarse voice:
"I'm … Sorry …"
"Estelle … I can't go stargazing with you anymore."
Then, while panting, he looked at Cyber who was standing at the side.
"Kill me."
He clenched his teeth and said with a hoarse voice while trembling.
Cyber opened his mouth and his mind went blank.
"Kill … I-I don't want to become a monster …"
Duo Lei's voice trembled.
The sarcoma on his face wriggled more and more, and a demon-like tail grew out from his back.
Cyber held the mithril dagger tightly, and his vision was a little blurry.
He grabbed Duo Lei's shoulder and said loudly:
"Duo Lei, hold on! I'm … "
He wanted to say "I'm the Goddess' chosen one".
However, he couldn't say it.
His words were drowned out by the noise.
It's the system!
Cyber was furious.
Damn the system!
Damn it! Of all times to block it, why did it have to block keywords now!
He took a deep breath and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Duo Lei:
"Kill … me."
"This is … the fate … of each and every one of us."
Duo Lei panted heavily and said with a trembling voice.
Cyber was silent.
He knew.
After fighting with the demons for so long, he understood the corruption of the power of the abyss very well.
Once the corruption started, it was irreversible.
Until … he became a monster that lost his mind, or a completely crazy demon.
Slowly exhaling, Cyber said in a low voice.
"I understand."
After saying that, he sniffled and endured the slight pain in his heart. He stabbed the mithril dagger in his hand into Duo Lei's chest.
"Father! No! "
Estelle let out a cry of surprise.
Duo Lei twitched a few times and looked at the elven girl with a slightly sentimental gaze.
He grinned with difficulty and smiled slightly. His ferocious face faintly showed a different kind of gentleness:
"I love … you, Estelle."
"Don't cry, you have to be strong."
Then, his body began to emit a bright light. The ferocious sarcoma and demon scales began to fade quickly, and his body also began to fade rapidly …
"Daughter, please …"
Cyber heard Duo Lei say something with a hint of pleading in his ear.
He opened his mouth slightly and wanted to answer, but Duo Lei's body turned into countless flying photons with a bang and disappeared in front of him.
Like fireworks blooming in the darkness, illusory and beautiful.
"Father —!"
Estelle let out a heart-wrenching cry.
She rushed to the place where Duo Lei disappeared and desperately wanted to grab something, but she couldn't grab anything.
On the ground, only the clothes left behind by Duo Lei's disappearance were left.
Estelle trembled as she picked up the broken clothes.
Her expression was filled with sadness.
The elves' song was still floating in the city, as if they were telling something.
Estelle knelt on the ground and looked at the flickering lights outside the window. Her eyes were hazy.
She opened her mouth softly and continued to sing along with the ethereal song.
Her voice was sad and sad.
The mithril dagger in Cyber's hand was thrown to the ground.
He looked at the girl who held the broken clothes and sang. He listened to the mellow song and was speechless for a moment.
When the girl finished singing, she looked at the clothes in front of her and said silently:
"I know …"
"I knew this day would come from the beginning …"
"Father just went to accompany mother …"
"I will live strong …"
"I will live strong …"
"I will wait until the day Mother Goddess revives …"
"I will not cry …"
"Father … Father just returned to the embrace of Mother Goddess …"
"Just like mother …"
"They … must be living happily in the kingdom of Mother Goddess …"
"They … must be in the sky, looking at me and encouraging me …"
"I will not cry …"
The girl's voice became softer and softer.
Looking at her thin and weak body, Cyber's heart couldn't bear it.
He didn't want to tell the girl that in the game's setting, every soul contaminated by the abyss would completely lose the chance to return to the kingdom of Mother Goddess and would be purified into nothingness.
Looking at Estelle who knelt on the ground with a sad expression, Cyber's chest surged with a hint of impulse.
At this moment, he felt that the girl's figure faintly overlapped with his sister in reality.
He couldn't help but walk forward and embrace Estelle. He patted her back gently:
"If you want to cry … just cry."
The girl's body trembled slightly.
She slowly raised her head and looked at Cyber with her misty eyes. Then she murmured:
"No, father will be disappointed …"
Looking at Estelle who was holding back her tears, Cyber took a deep breath and said:
"He won't."
"I'll block it for you. He can't see it."
The girl trembled slightly:
"Really … can't see it?"
Her voice was faintly trembling.
"Really."
Cyber said softly.
An unprecedented gentleness.
The girl was silent for a moment and started sobbing softly.
Gradually, the sobbing turned into a heart-wrenching cry.
She grabbed the corner of Cyber's shirt and burst into tears.
The girl's tears were buried in her sorrowful and persistent singing. It touched the softest part of Cyber's heart.
He hugged her tightly. Unknowingly, his eyes were also blurred by tears.
"I will save all of you …"
"I will definitely save all of you!"
He shouted with a firm voice as tears flowed down his face.
Then, he suddenly raised his head. His eyes were red. He held the girl with one hand and clenched his other hand into a fist. He raised it high and roared at the rolling clouds outside the window:
"I — — Cyber Shadow!"
"My … daughter …!"
His body trembled as if he was trying to break free from some kind of restraint.
The familiar feeling of confinement came again. Cyber's body was faintly surrounded by golden light.
His expression became ferocious, but his gaze was unprecedentedly firm.
He opened his mouth slightly and veins popped out on his face:
"My … daughter …"
His voice trembled as if something was stopping him from continuing.
However, Cyber didn't give up.
He struggled. The light on his body became brighter and brighter. It transformed into golden lightning and kept revolving around his body.
The anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger …
The light became more and more dazzling. Cyber felt his consciousness become more and more blurred …
But at the same time, he felt the power in his heart grow stronger and stronger!
At this moment, he felt that he could do it.
He took a deep breath. His eyes were bloodshot. He clenched his teeth and shouted again in a trembling voice in the dazzling golden light.
"I swear …"
"Goddess …"
"I swear in the name of the Chosen One —"
"I swear!"
He finally said the words he wanted to say.
A resplendent pillar of light shot up into the sky from Cyber's body.
Following the beeping of his friends' notifications, his vision … fell into darkness.
