Chapter 529: 529
Don’t Live Anymore

The mighty, bottomless River of Origin flowed toward the unknown, deep, and dark land.

In the thick and heavy liquid elemental flow, explosions and booms were constantly blooming. Water splashed and elements were exploding. Terrifying behemoths were fighting under the quiet water surface. From time to time, broken flesh and blood would surface, but they would soon be assimilated and eliminated, and intense aftershocks would flow.

“Madman!”

The furious sound waves rumbled under the water.

The silver locusts turned into sharp spikes and attacked the beasts in the water.

The mutated dragon’s painful roars tore the river apart.

At this moment, Tricia’s entire body was soaked in the river, swimming rapidly along the River of Origin. He wanted to find the Ascension Point and accept the upgrade promised to him by the gods, but this process was full of difficult trials because a madman from Aurora was chasing him relentlessly, biting and chasing him like a mad dog.

The metal spikes formed by the Graywind Bugs were extremely sharp, and with the enhancement of mysterious elements, they were even faster and sharper. The continuous attacks could not cause any substantial damage to Tricia, because the severe injuries would be instantly healed by the surrounding pure liquid elements. However, the pain could not be blocked.

This pain was like being repeatedly cut into pieces.

“This is meaningless!”

“Human!”Tracy roared. You’re doing something useless!”

” It’s meaningful to make you feel more pain before you die.”

The human voice sounded both distant and near.

The two figures shuttled and chased each other rapidly in the vast and mighty river.

They had no idea how long they had been swimming. They had no idea how deep they were, how long they were, or where they were. After all, under the water, vision was meaningless. They were surrounded by bright purple. They were only moving along the river, chasing and killing. That was all.

Faith, willpower, protection, ambition… Everything gradually dissipated in the constant pursuit and biting, leaving only the purest, most original, and only one goal.

Tracis wanted to reach the end point and complete his upgrade before the Dragon God allowed him to ascend to heaven.

This was his only goal. For this, he had given up his dignity, his pride, and his glory as a dragon. He had killed his companions. He had nothing left.

The so-called rebuilding of the dragon race’s glory was nothing but empty and laughable words.

In the end, it was only doing this for itself. It had given everything it had to get results.

As for Kant…He wanted an answer.

Ah Xing’s fall into the river was the last straw that broke his defenses. Before that, he had been at a loss for a long time in exhaustion and sighing. The fate of the Fire Stealer, the whispers of the Doomsday Voice, and the coincidences made him wonder if his life up until now was a pre-arranged script. He had once flatly rejected the gift of the Doomsday Voice. That terrifying and great thing had once told him that fate could not be changed, so he saw the outlines woven by fate, layer upon layer. It was like a net.

No matter how he struggled, it was meaningless.

Just like when the Sound of Doomsday sent the Graywind swarm to him, he had flatly rejected it, thinking that he could control his own fate…But now, he chose to accept it.

It was like fate.

It was as if he had also accepted the demon’s gift. The mysterious elements lingered around him, and he could easily sense every fluctuation and characteristic of this mysterious substance. He even suspected that even without the extraction of the Fire Stealer’s power, this energy was completely harmless to him… It was exactly the same as the Graywind swarm.

They were all gifts from Doomsday Sound.

It wanted him to fulfill his mission…The curtain of the setting sun was lowered.

Therefore, he prepared these gifts that had already been priced.

He also knew that these gifts would eventually fall into Kant’s hands.

Now, everything was meaningless.

Because he had accepted it. He had accepted his fate. He only wanted an answer now.

He believed that the answer was at the end of the river.

Ah Xing.

Please tell me that it was all worth it.

He had to say that.

After all, you left your seed here many years ago, and we met many years later. Now that I’m here, you’re back. If all of this had been planned out, it would definitely have been meaningful. You wouldn’t have disappeared just like that. You must have been waiting for me, right? Right?

I won’t blame you. Even I can’t resist, so how can you?

I only hope that you are alive.

After all, after accepting those disgusting bugs and this demonic substance, I did as it wished and followed its destiny…He has to give me some face…

I just want you to live.

Otherwise…

“Don’t stop me! Humans!”

Kant was like a maggot in his bones, chasing after him. Tracis had lost count of how many times he had been skinned. His body was pierced, his scales were torn, and his limbs were cut off. The Skyquaker was like a mad dog that did not know fatigue, commanding the swarm of bugs to bite him crazily, even if it was all meaningless.

Tracey’s anger turned into shock and anger, and from shock and anger to fear.

Because he realized that the other party was slowly turning into a pure and fierce beast.

The other party was just like him. He was also longing for the end of the river and was also looking for something.

And if this Skyquaker couldn’t find what he wanted, he would completely complete the craziest and fatal transformation…And that moment was the most despairing and terrifying doomsday for him.

It was useless to counterattack because the other party’s methods were far more brilliant than his.

Tris did not even dare to stop. If he slowed down even a little, Kant would command the swarm to cut off the mighty River of Origin and banish it to that terrifying alternate dimension.

Therefore, the Aberrant Dragon sadly discovered that someone as powerful as him, who had been summoned by the Dragon God, was about to receive the gift of upgrading. At this moment, facing the final obstacle on the road to upgrading, he had to use words to make the other party retreat.

“Kang De from Skyquaking! There’s no point in chasing me! Do you know how many meaningless hours we’ve spent here? Do you know what kind of strategy and plan I have prepared?”

The spies and arrangements from before were his handiwork. After realizing the threat of the people of Aurora, he was already prepared to gain an advantage from the outside.

He had wanted to tell Kant about his plan after he had won a great victory, so that Kant could enjoy his final moments of pain.

But now, he had no choice but to reveal his current plan in exchange for the other party’s distraction or even retreat, because he really had no other choice.

“You saw the corpse of Occhiwill, didn’t you? And Lester’s, you saw Luz’s appearance after the sacrificial ritual, right? It committed suicide in front of you! There was also Hardconte. Other than Vines, the other dragons were actually still alive! They were reborn and offered me the purest loyalty. Together with me, they worked for the Dragon God’s great plan!”

“Do you know that the moment the River of Origin was awakened, they were all awakened! I ordered them to return to the surface along the way they came. As vanguards and messengers, they announced your conspiracy, greed, and sin to the whole world. They will provide the most perfect confession. The diplomatic mission found ancient ruins and divine materials underground. You wanted to take them all for yourself, so you killed the dragon!”

” Their mission is to constantly spread chaos and hostility, so that Goethe will be surrounded by enemies from both sides and face immense pressure. From there, the forces of interference from the outside world will break through the line of defense that you have set up, allowing the essence and experts of the various races to penetrate deep into it, accept sublimation, and be used by me! Do you know the current situation?”

“Are you going to continue wasting time here with me, or are you going to return to the surface and deal with the questions and difficulties of the various races? The elves and the empire will not sit idly by if the dragons make a move. These short-lived species have always liked to play tricks. They are used to letting the enemy’s internal chaos rather than rashly interfering with external forces. Can you imagine the pressure Goethe is under?”

“Do you know what kind of foolish actions the countries that fear the threat of the Forbidden Spell will do if you don’t show yourself in the outside world? Are you sure you want to stay here and kill time with me?”

“Retreat! Kant!”

” Let me accept the upgrade ritual, let me complete my upgrade, and let you solve your problem. Then, we’ll have a fair battle. The outcome will depend on the Dragon God’s will!”

“This is good for both of us! At least it’s better than now!”

He felt that he had already used all his speaking skills to the limit.

But the response was a cold rejection.

“I think it’s good now.”

Violent silver spikes split the water waves and shot out.

It was incomprehensible, completely incomprehensible.

Even though Tris was corrupted and his way of thinking was inclined towards madness, he still could not understand Kant’s way of thinking.” Are you not going to care about Goethe anymore?” he roared. You can’t kill me! Just like how I can’t kill you! We don’t know when this road will end, but Goethe can’t wait any longer!”

“Your friends, your wife, the people you care about, the people you fight for, the people who trust you, they will be isolated and helpless. Without your help, how can they resist the pressure and even attacks of the other countries? Under such circumstances, those who continued to trust and support you would be in an even more miserable situation! There will even be people in Goethe who will criticize and oppose you! Just imagine what would happen when he saw it! Are you sure you want to sit back and watch this happen?

Bleeding, death, Goethe turning into ruins, guarding is meaningless…”

Kant’s hoarse laughter interrupted Tracy’s speech.

“So?”

The Fire Stealer’s voice echoed in the chaotic river.

“What so…”

“Ah Xing is inside.”

“What inside…”

The Fire Stealer’s laughter became colder.

“If I leave now and you take the opportunity to pull away and reach the end ahead of time and kill Ah Xing, what should I do? I will kill you at all costs to vent my anger. I will kill every single dragon. I will do whatever it takes. My actions will definitely be criticized, feared, and uneasy by the various countries. They will treat me as an enemy and attack me. Then, I will fight with them. This is the result it wants!”

The voice of the Fallen continued to ring out.

“But Tina and the others are on the surface! If I chase you to the end and save Ah Xing, but it’s too late when I return to the surface, Goethe is destroyed, Tina and Hong San are dead, what should I do? Of course I want to raze the Empire, Sunset Moon, the Council, Dragon Island, and everything! This is also the result it wants!”

The earthling’s voice grew louder and louder, and his laughter turned into wild laughter.

“Or rather, both! I chased you to the end of the origin and saw the dead gorilla. I returned to the surface and saw Goethe in ruins. This is the result it wanted!”

“This is f * cking fate, do you understand? This was what fate was! It’s not that the outcome is destined, but that you don’t know what choice you make to lead to that outcome!”

” Which one is the script? Which one is the destiny it mentioned? There must be a reason for me to bring down the curtain of the apocalypse. If this is the f * cking reason, then what should I do?”

“How should I choose?”

“What can I do? What choice can I make? Ah Xing had one life, while Goethe had many lives. It was very simple, right? But I don’t want to choose. What do you want me to say? What do you want me to do?

I don’t f * cking want to choose. I shouldn’t have come to this sh * tty world, I shouldn’t have stayed on this planet. If you ask me what I should do, then I only have one answer left!”

Kant’s voice turned into a hysterical roar, causing the mysterious elements to roar like a tidal wave.

“Don’t f * cking live anymore!”

A violent explosion erupted underwater. The bubbles that exploded pushed forward an unparalleled force. The massive swarm of Graywind worms swam around underwater like a school of silver fish, protecting Kant as he advanced forward.

The straps that bound the curtains were slowly loosening.

“I just addressed Princess Tina as Mistress.”

Red Maple Lucerne, the former Aurora Embassy, a manor. Hong San walked in front of the neat army formation, talking to familiar faces.

“Do you know why?”

“Because she is on our side.”

” When I selected you to join the army, I had already pointed out to you the situation that we would be facing today. His Highness’s great cause and ambition would certainly encounter endless resistance. In the foreseeable future, we would face more responsibilities, pressure, and even sacrifices. You should be mentally prepared for this.”

” Now, it’s our turn to repay Your Highness ‘kindness.”

“Today, we will welcome the actual battle.”

Today, the entire city of Lucerne was under martial law. The entire Gladiolus Legion had been mobilized to block the streets and enforce martial law. The frightened and panicked people looked through the window slits and saw strange alchemy chariots galloping and roaring on the streets. Soldiers with strange weapons either followed behind the chariots or sat in the chariots.

The cavalry of the Gladiolus Corps sealed off the street while the Valentan Guards carried out their mission. The roaring armored vehicles broke through the tall and unique doors and rushed into the quiet manor. They shouted and issued an ultimatum. After being rejected, the Shilka River self-propelled artillery followed up. The four 23mm artillery shells that were released to the level interweaved into a long river of flames that had been enchanted with mysterious elements. From left to right, they cut through the four-story luxurious building.

Magic Defense, Elemental Barrier, Energy Shield, all of them were reduced to dust.

“Charge: treason.”

In the most prosperous tavern street of the commercial district, the demonically modified green-skinned war chariot roared past, flattening the wooden shacks and clearing out a wall. The drunkards, spies, and even bosses who were shivering and crying loudly were dragged to the wall. Hong San waved his hand indifferently.

Four groups of Valentan Guards set up.50 heavy machine guns.

“What are we doing?”

The gathering in the manor of the great noble was wiped out. Amidst the bloody corpses, Hong San calmly said to the trembling question of the old noble,” His Highness has fought for Goethe several times, killing hundreds of thousands of people belonging to Sunset Moon and his servant army in exchange for Goethe’s independence and peace. You didn’t see a mountain of corpses, but only saw His Highness ‘kindness, kindness, and benevolence, so you thought that you were lucky and looked down on him, so I…”

He pressed the rifle in his hand against the other party’s forehead.

“Let me show you my saber.”

After the rumors and turmoil, Tedarell’s response exploded like a blazing fireball. Faced with questions, reprimands, and dissatisfaction, the ancient family that ruled Goethe for hundreds of years responded with brutal suppression.

The waves seemed to have been suppressed by blood, but the undercurrents were even more turbulent. The conspirators were brewing a second wave of counterattack.

A giant dragon had officially entered the Goethe Sea.

Then, it was a dynasty warship.

Not long after, the fleets of the various countries that were wandering in the outer seas of Goethe marched straight in.

The coastal defense fleet of Blue Wave Province did not stop them.

The encirclement of Goethe was shrinking.

Kant and Tracy reached the end of the River of Origin after a bloody battle.

P.S. 1: Sigh, I finally managed to push forward to the original outline…Do you know the content of the outline that you made previously? The mysterious element was highly infectious and corrosive. The initial spread of the element had occurred when the two named Scout Mages encountered the flock of birds. It then gradually spread to the Investigation Corps, even the capital of the Blue Wave Province, and even to other countries through trade routes. This was the reason why the fleets of various countries had pressured and besieged Goethe. They claimed that Kant had leaked the demonic substance, and then all kinds of preparations were made.

P.S.2: The storyline for this part was completed last year.

[PS3: after the new year, I’ve been reading the news for the past few months and almost peed my pants.]

Ps4: What else can I do? He could only slash…Forget it, I’ll finish writing this paragraph first. After I’m done, I’ll tell you all about my mental journey in detail…

P5: I think that slow typing isn’t a bad thing. (Distant)
