Chapter 96: Epilogue
After Mu Sheng arrived at the scene, he instructed the boat crew to leave immediately; ordinary humans remaining along the coast were doomed.
Seeing it firsthand, one could understand just how dire the situation along the coast had become. The sky seemed to have countless holes, with rain pouring down relentlessly, and no light other than flashes of lightning and thunder. The sight naturally suppressed one's instinct.
Mu Sheng stood on the shore, and it wasn't long before the rainwater accumulated up to his calves. The surrounding buildings obstructed his view. Mu Sheng scanned the area, planning to head to the highest point to observe the situation.
His special physique allowed him to move without difficulty even in this near pitch-black environment.
The highest point in this city district had also been requisitioned as a shelter, accommodating many who hadn't had time to flee further away. Many others stayed in their homes, awaiting their final fate.
Mu Sheng took the elevator to the top and then walked up the stairs to the open platform. The surroundings were eerily empty; apart from the water, it seemed as if nothing else existed. No one noticed the anomaly with the young man—none of the rain that fell from the sky touched him, as if an invisible barrier separated him from the water. Only the wind made his loose clothing flutter, outlining Mu Sheng's slender figure.
Although he appeared fragile enough to be blown away by the wind, each step he took was steady. The accumulated water on the ground had already begun to drain before he arrived, revealing a clean surface.
Mu Sheng stood on the rooftop, looking towards the sea. It had completely lost its former grandeur and tranquility, now a dark and endless turmoil, angrily surging to destroy everything.
The loss of deep-sea treasures was one reason, but Mu Sheng also noticed a faint, elusive black mist not far off, furrowing his brow. More importantly, something was causing a commotion, stirring up the sea and making it lose its rationality under the shroud of darkness.
The closer he got to the darkest concentration, the more Mu Sheng felt a sense of being targeted and restricted—his own power waned as the opposing force grew, until only one side remained.
How strange. Was the "opponent" also a player?
But the system gave no indication or warning, and why would a player do such a thing?
The bracelet and tarot cards in his inventory suddenly lit up, dispelling the surrounding darkness as if providing a reminder and assistance. Mu Sheng held the light in his hands, stared at it for a moment, and asked, "System?"
There was no response.
Mu Sheng had no choice but to continue observing the scene:
Upon Mu Sheng's arrival at the scene, he instructed the boat crew to leave immediately; staying along the coast was a death sentence for ordinary humans.
Seeing it firsthand revealed just how dire the situation had become along the coast. The sky seemed perforated with countless holes, with rain pouring incessantly, and only flashes of lightning and thunder illuminated the darkness. The sight naturally suppressed one's instincts.
Mu Sheng stood on the shore, and soon the rainwater accumulated up to his calves. The surrounding buildings blocked his view. Mu Sheng surveyed the area, planning to head to the highest point to observe the situation.
His unique physique allowed him to move with ease even in such a nearly pitch-black environment.
The highest point in this city district had been turned into a shelter, housing many who hadn't managed to flee further away. Many others stayed in their homes, awaiting their fate.
