A Night of Desperation-Chapter 589: Pack up 1

In the factory, Yu Hong looked up at the gentle sunlight outside.

"Such warming sunlight, I wonder when I’ll ever see it again...."

This time, he did not hide anymore. The primary reason was that the Great Annihilation was approaching. He couldn’t take everyone here with him, but before leaving, he could give them a gift.

Gulp.

Yan Wei’s face turned pale as she backed away step by step until her back was against the wall.

"You... who exactly are you...!?"

She vaguely sensed a familiar tone in his voice. This manner of speech was very much like the mentor who had once guided and betrayed her to this point. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"You’ve done well during this period. After I’m gone, you’ll have to manage the situation yourself."

Yu Hong’s face quickly transformed, clearly revealing the familiar face of her mentor.

"Mentor....!" Yan Wei was stunned, "It’s really you..."

Yu Hong did not respond but rather made his immense body quickly vanish, leaving behind only a two-meter-tall human figure like before. He walked slowly out of the door and exited the factory.

His true body, due to its collapse, had to constantly appear outside.

But to avoid arousing the enemy’s suspicion and to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, he used an Illusion Technique to set up a false body in front of his true self, hiding himself behind it, ready to strike at any moment.

As soon as he stepped out the door.

Several Black Armor Yinluo people suddenly appeared outside.

Five in total, formed into a simple array, surrounding Yu Hong at the center.

Among them, a prince was also in the formation.

"Among these people, which one is the inducement point?" Yu Hong transmitted in a low voice.

Yes, the other reason for his impatience was to delay the arrival of the Source Disaster’s Great Annihilation as much as possible.

According to senior Su Dan’s method, as long as the inducement point was found and either removed or destroyed, the Source Disaster’s intrusion time could be greatly delayed.

At first, he thought the inducement point must be on a human from Flame Star. However, upon closer inspection, he found that none of the slightly famous people on Flame Star were it.

The inducement point is characterized by immense influence.

After secretly inspecting, he confirmed that Yan Wei was not it, and neither were the leaders of various countries. So, it seemed highly probable that the inducement point existed among the Yinluo people. If not, then it must be in other regions of this universe.

That would be beyond his concern.

"Not sure, let’s check it out. If we can’t find it, we’ll just leave." Quan He transmitted, "After all, we only need to verify if the inducement point is truly effective. Whether we can extend the vitality of the humans here depends on their luck."

Quan He was also open-minded. After all, they were merely passersby;they couldn’t carry or take responsibility for the fate of billions of people here.

"But are you sure you want to cut the knot quickly?" Quan He hesitated to ask.

"Yes, there’s no time. We’ve been here for some time already. The initial objective has been achieved, there’s no point in staying any longer." Yu Hong answered calmly. It was still critical to escape for their lives.

"Understood." Quan He comprehended. "You should handle the immediate situation first."

"Mm."

Both were Immortal Dao Cultivators. Despite the content of their telepathic exchange seeming ample, it was completed in merely two seconds. Now, Yu Hong refocused on the five individuals in front of him.

The leader among them, the Yinluo prince, stepped out of the formation, slightly ahead of the rest.

"Yan Wei, stop hiding, come out."

In the factory, Yan Wei slowly walked out, her face pale, eyes complicated as she looked at Yu Hong’s back, then shifted her gaze to the prince.

"Your Highness, you shouldn’t have come...."

"Are you rambling nonsense because you know you’re about to die and have become delirious?" The prince said coldly, "Although I don’t know how you killed Tren, now, with five against one, you stand no chance."

"You overestimate me...." Yan Wei shook her head, her gaze fixed on Yu Hong. "From the beginning, I have always been just a puppet...."

Now she understood. All the previous puzzles were finally solved. Why there was always a continuous strong dark force in the Moon Palace supporting her to attack the Yinluo people.

Now it seemed that it had always been this mentor orchestrating everything...

The prince and the others noticed Yu Hong at this point, this seemingly insignificant tall human male.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a black laser shot out from one of the Yinluo people’s shoulders, hitting Yu Hong squarely.

This was an ambush!

While everyone thought the prince was about to question Yu Hong and converse with him, the swift and precise ambush of this laser was unexpected and struck Yu Hong right in the forehead.

They had been alert and cautious as soon as Yu Hong appeared and stood nonchalantly within their encirclement.

After all, until now, no ordinary human surrounded by the Yinluo people had remained so composed.

Thus, they knew this person had to be problematic!

But despite hitting the target, Yu Hong had been distracted. This laser shot pulled him back from his distraction.

In the moment he walked out, his Divine Sense recklessly spread, encompassing the nearby two Yinluo motherships floating above Flame Star.

He was calculating the total number of Yinluo people on Flame Star.

Most Yinluo people, due to their disdain for living too close to the lowly humans of Flame Star, chose to stay in their three motherships.

This made it easier for Yu Hong to scan now.

"Seventy-one thousand four hundred and fifty-two in total." Yu Hong said.

"What!?" The prince was the first to grasp the meaning of Yu Hong’s statement, "How do you know this number!?" His eyes flashed blue, his voice becoming grave.

This was indeed the total number of Yinluo people currently on Flame Star.

"Time is running out. Could I ask you to hand over all your Life Armor?" Yu Hong managed a slight smile.

If he wanted to gather them all, it was essential to drain every bit of life force from the Armor. The vitality Agrius bestowed was abundant, but no one ever felt it was enough.

Therefore, his true intention was to take as much as possible.

The only restriction he faced was the storage capacity for vitality. But with Agrius having demonstrated it, it was straightforward to learn by following suit, and his current body could bear it regardless.

"Is this guy mad!?" an Yinluo person scoffed with laughter.

But in the next second.

Poof!

A black spear instantly pierced through his heart from behind.

The spear tip penetrated the chest armor, carrying remnants of blood and flesh, then swiftly retracted.

The Yinluo person stood rigid, his eyes quickly dimming from green.

"What... is... happening...!?" He kneeled, clutching his heart, helplessly collapsing on the ground, gradually losing his breath.

Standing behind him was another Yinluo person in formation.

Not just that, two other Yinluo persons mysteriously began to lift black spears and started savagely attacking each other.

Judging by their stance, it was as if the opponent was their mortal enemy, fighting with full desperation!

The prince, upon seeing the lasers fail, felt an immediate rise in his heart rate. Now, witnessing this scene made him involuntarily step back two paces, loudly ordering his subordinates to stop, but to no avail.

"Don’t be afraid." Yu Hong’s silhouette vanished, reappearing suddenly at his side.

"You still have value. For Yinluo people, if you are willing to cooperate, I don’t mind sparing your lives."

"Arrogant! What position do you represent to say such words?" Though the prince was terrified, he couldn’t help but retort upon hearing this.

"I represent myself." Yu Hong was unwilling to waste words.

Now, he no longer suppressed his control.

The Qingyuan Heavenly River Miao Technique automatically operated, and immediately a gray vitality mist began to rise from the three Yinluo people surrounding the prince and Yan Wei.

As the mist flew out and integrated into Yu Hong, their bodies became increasingly emaciated and frail.

Their armor rapidly dulled.

In less than three seconds, the three collapsed lifelessly to the ground, their armor also turning completely gray and lifeless.

This scene made both the prince and Yan Wei shiver uncontrollably.

Without any movements, just standing and speaking a few words caused the four elite Yinluo Special Forces, capable of destroying a small country, to lose vitality and collapse on the ground with seemingly damaged armor.

"Let’s go, lead the way. To your mothership." Yu Hong lightly patted the prince’s shoulder.

The prince began to tremble unconsciously. He very much wanted to refuse, but didn’t dare.

The ordeal his subordinates had just faced rendered him incapable of making any rash decisions.

’Right, the mothership! The mothership has high-intensity fire control systems surrounding it. As long as we enter the zone, we can use death rays to instantly deal with this guy!’

A rapid burst of thoughts brought a solution to his mind.

"Can you tell me who you are and what you want?" he asked, trying to suppress his fear.

"You can call me Mentor, the true leader of the Moon Palace in the shadows. As for what I want?" Yu Hong chuckled. "That depends on what you have...."

Whoosh.

The two soared skyward, heading toward the Yinluo mothership.

Yan Wei hesitated before quickly leaping toward another distant point, sensing that something significant was about to unfold.

With the armor unusable and his eyes strained from overuse, Instantaneous Movement was unlikely. So, he had to resort to other tools—there was a light helicopter stationed at the other point, which might keep up with the Mentor’s duo.

In the sky.

Yu Hong followed the prince, flying swiftly.

Soon, they approached the Yinluo Linglong mothership.

The massive mothership resembled a continent, hovering motionlessly above the Linglong Capital.

"This area is already a no-fly zone. Inside the mothership are my two brothers, even for me, entering here will inevitably provoke them into action. To secure the throne and eliminate competitors, they’d gladly take any chance to kill me. So threatening me further serves no purpose." At this point, the prince had discerned Yu Hong’s strategy, explaining hurriedly.

Yu Hong floated in the sky, observing the dense array of Yinluo armored troops swiftly emerging around the massive mothership.

He soon realized the prince wasn’t lying.

"No worries, just lead the way." Yu Hong was unconcerned.

The prince dared not say more and could only watch helplessly as dozens of Life Armor figures from the mothership flew towards him and the person behind him.

But....

Swish swish swish!!

In the next second, this group of Yinluo armored figures unexpectedly flew past them, then paired off, beginning an insane slaughter among themselves.

Their eyes steadily transitioned from blue and green to red, swiftly targeting their comrades with full force, even resorting to self-sacrifice by triggering explosions while holding a colleague.

Enormous flames erupted continuously in the sky.

The entirety of the Capital below remained in a state of intense shaking.

The authorities had long been alerted but dared not approach upon seeing the Yinluo forces mobilize, resorting to deploying helicopters to film from the periphery.

"This....!!?" The prince looked at the continuously exploding Yinluo armored figures, feeling the coldness intensify in his heart.

From his vantage, he could see countless gray mist constantly emanating from the Yinluo figures, converging towards Yu Hong.
