Chapter 99 – Eternal Night is Coming


Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Silver flapped his bony wings and stood respectfully behind Ye Shuangluo.

After the Rakshasa Spider Queen died, the four Asura Spider Kings followed her to their deaths.

As soon as they perished, Silver immediately flew to Ye Shuangluo’s side, awaiting the next command.

Ye Shuangluo pointed to the gathering of “Eternal Night” faction players and issued an order.

“Silver, kill them all.”

“As you command, my king.”

A cruel smile appeared on Silver’s face. He had noticed earlier that this group of ants dared to ambush the king.

If it weren’t for those damn spiders holding him back, he would have torn these ants to pieces long ago.

Whoosh!

Silver swiftly flew towards the shore, the massive sound of his movement causing some players to cover their ears.

“Damn, isn’t that the Soul-Eating Ant King? How did it become his summon?”

“Don’t be afraid, it’s just a summon. He’s not a Charisma-specialized player, so the summon can’t be that strong.”

The “Eternal Night” faction players quickly regrouped after the initial panic, with support players supporting and ranged attackers attacking.

They looked at Ye Shuangluo standing on the sea and began to speculate. That move just now was strong, but it probably had significant limitations, maybe leaving him weakened after using it.

Otherwise, why would he only send his minion to fight and not join in himself?

Thinking this, they instantly calmed down.

At this moment, in their eyes, both Ye Shuangluo and Sarchi were like meat on a chopping board, ready to be handled at will.

But soon, they realized things weren’t as simple as they thought.

Just as they began to engage in battle, the system’s prompt sounded immediately.

[The enemy has activated a special skill, you need to make a Will Judgment.]

[… Judgment Success *16 (Judgment Failure *52)]

Players who succeeded in the judgment had nothing to worry about, while those who failed fell into an illusion.

In the illusion, a towering Ant King stood atop a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, staring at them with blood-red eyes.

The Ant King was a hundred feet tall, and they were truly ants before it.

As they were grabbed by the Ant King and thrown into its mouth.

The illusion ended, and they escaped, but all fell into a state of “Confusion” and “Fear.”

[Confusion: Any skill targeting an enemy may fail, with a chance to attack allies.]

[Fear: Movement Speed reduced by 20%, Attack Speed reduced by 25%, Will and Mental attributes significantly lowered.]

Rip!

Silver cruelly tore off all four limbs of a sniper player and then crushed his head with a stomp.

This brutal and bloody scene made some female players’ stomachs churn uncontrollably.

“Don’t panic! Maintain formation, keep attacking! Tanks, get up front and taunt!”

Bang, bang, bang!

Silver charged forward through a hail of bullets, grabbing a male player with a shield.

This time, he didn’t kill the player serving as a tank immediately but used his body as a shield and weapon, blocking attacks and smashing enemies.

“What the hell is with this ant, triple damage judgment!”

[Physical Damage 458 + Soul Damage 50 (Soul-Eating Power) + True Damage 50 (Killing Power. Weak)]

Under the triple damage judgment, squishy players were slain in one hit, and even tanky ones could only withstand two hits; the third would evaporate them instantly.

“Where are the control players! Use control skills, all of you!”

“Stop shouting, we’ve used all our control skills, we can’t control this ant.”

Countless spears, energy nets, and light swords hit Silver accurately, but they didn’t slow his killing speed at all.

Notably, he roared at the players he killed while continuing his slaughter.

“Damn ants, how dare you ambush my noble king, I’ll crush you all!”

In just five minutes, half of the “Eternal Night” faction players were dead. The player in charge of commanding looked at the health bar above Silver’s head in despair.

“We’ve hit him with so many attacks, why isn’t he losing health?!”

By now, over a hundred Wraith Soldiers had gathered around Ye Shuangluo, with [Wolf Feast] emitting a dangerous glow.

Sarchi watched the massacre of the “Eternal Night” players who had pushed him to the brink and couldn’t help but swallow hard.

He realized that the evaluation might have been too kind to him; given the current situation, it was clearly a 19-to-1 scenario, and he’d be cut into nine pieces within a minute.

The bespectacled player commanding suddenly turned his gaze to Ye Shuangluo and shouted to the players beside him:

“No matter how strong the summon is, if we kill the master, it will die too. Cover me! I’m going to take out the master of this ant.”

He activated his speed boost and charged towards Ye Shuangluo.

He originally thought the ant would do everything to stop him, but it suddenly stopped attacking and stood quietly.

Too smooth, the ant didn’t even try to block him.

When he saw the young man looking at him with a faint smile, he realized something was wrong, but it was too late.

Countless chains made of ice elements surged from the seabed, binding him tightly.

Squelch!

[Mortal Kill] pierced his body entirely, and in the next second, countless ice elements froze him.

[Ice Seal], activated.

Ye Shuangluo’s Ice Seal was different from Lesbos’s; the latter required physical contact and took a long time to succeed.

His was different; it could seal the enemy immediately upon hitting.

And it didn’t require physical contact; he could activate it by stabbing with a knife.

Silver couldn’t help but sneer at the bespectacled player’s fate, taunting:

“What are you, to dare ambush my king? Do you know, my king’s power surpasses mine a hundredfold.”

They had just witnessed Ye Shuangluo splitting the sea with one slash, and even the Sea of Fallen Gods hadn’t recovered, so they believed Silver’s words.

“These damn natives, aren’t they ready yet!”

“We shouldn’t have trusted them; they’re just a bunch of monsters without a moral compass.”

The remaining players cursed while desperately resisting Silver’s attacks.

Ye Shuangluo stretched lazily on the ice; this one-sided massacre had shown him Silver’s combat power.

He should stop holding back and join the fight.

Summoning [Wind Spirit Wings] again, he flapped them slightly and returned to the shore.

Seeing Ye Shuangluo arrive, Silver immediately knelt on one knee, apologetically saying:

“I’m useless, taking so long to end the battle, making you join the fight personally. Please punish me.”

“No worries, I just felt like stretching my hands. There are 14 players left; let’s see who kills more.”

“Yes!”

An excited and cruel smile reappeared on Silver’s face.

Squelch, rip!

The sound of blades tearing through flesh and limbs being forcibly torn off echoed continuously on the battlefield.

In just a minute, only one fire mage with a staff and a red robe remained on the battlefield.

Ye Shuangluo stepped on him, about to finish him off, when a system prompt suddenly sounded in his ear.

[World Quest: Eternal Night Descends has been activated]

The fire mage could clearly hear the system prompt too, and even though he was on the brink of death, he laughed loudly.

“Hahaha, you damn natives, you’re so slow.

Hahaha, do you see? Even if you kill us, what can you do? You can’t win this game.”

Ye Shuangluo frowned, grabbing his neck and lifting him, about to ask what was happening.

Rip!

The fire mage’s heart was pierced by Silver’s bone whip, transformed from his exoskeleton.

“My king, I killed eight, so I win.”

Ye Shuangluo: …
