Chapter 497: Chapter 85 - I Give You the Right to Choose (Part 2) (Additional update for Gu Zifengling Reward)_1

Upon hearing Victor’s response, Wen Yu nodded slightly.

"With such a large range, there’s a possibility of breaking this barrier."

After Wen Yu finished speaking, he waved his hand, interrupting Victor’s imminent torrent of questions. Then, Black Light surged from his body!

The next second, Wen Yu’s entire body transformed into a streak of pure darkness, appearing somewhat indistinct under the dim purple light of the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier.

"You all head back to the Red Stone Hotel first. Wait for me to deal with these Cannon Fodder Monsters, then I’ll rejoin you!"

Then, with a flicker of Black Light, Wen Yu vanished.

The battlefield near the Red Stone Hotel echoed with a continuous chain of screams, cries, and the clash of battle.

All Third-level and lower professionists and mutant beasts had largely been eliminated from this battlefield—either due to physical exhaustion, excessively severe injuries, or death in combat.

Undoubtedly, those who remained were the elite of the elite. It was they who ensured the entire battle situation didn’t collapse.

Andy forcefully swung his battle saber, letting out a roar as if to bolster his own courage.

The physical prowess of a Peak Level 3 professionist made this battle saber strike particularly effective.

Slicing a Low-grade Demon Fiend before him in two, Andy leaned on his battle saber, barely managing to straighten his body as he gasped for breath.

As a high-level professionist in Las Vegas, even a Peak Level 3 like Andy was struggling after more than a day of intense fighting. Physical recovery could be aided by medicinal potions, but no potion could alleviate mental fatigue.

Just as Andy was gasping heavily, a pale blue glow flashed past. Before Andy could react, it struck him squarely in the face!

It was an Ice Arrow.

The immense force, like a cannonball, slammed into Andy’s face, instantly blowing his head apart. Then the Ice Arrow exploded, flash-freezing the bowl-sized wound on Andy’s neck!

Afterward, Andy, one of the top fighters among Las Vegas professionists, collapsed silently to the ground and instantly turned to ash. The remaining energy in his body was completely absorbed by the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier.

Among the attacking Demon Tribe, there were not only massive numbers of Cannon Fodder Monsters but also assassins hidden among them!

This kind of scene played out every moment across the battlefield.

Gazing at the increasingly fierce battle below, Claus, standing on the rooftop, frowned as he rapidly considered solutions.

Unfortunately, in the face of absolute power, all plans were futile; they were merely delaying the inevitable.

"Karl."

Claus called out. A Middle Stage Level 4 professionist slowly approached from behind him.

"Go and deal with the problem in Eastern Sector Two. There seems to be a high-Level demon fiend hiding in the shadows there. Find it and eliminate it!"

"Understood!"

Karl nodded and leaped from the 15-story height. A loud CRASH resounded as Karl’s freefall impacted the ground, carving out a large crater. He then sprinted towards the designated Eastern Sector Two battle zone without pausing.

By the time Karl departed, Claus was alone.

Karl... he was the last powerful expert at my disposal.

So, if the battle line collapses again, who will step up? Me? Then who will oversee the entire situation?

Although the current battle situation didn’t appear disadvantageous, no one understood the specifics better than Claus.

Setting aside the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier, the Demon Tribe’s tactic of mixing Powerful Demons with their Cannon Fodder Monsters was like a blunt knife slowly carving away flesh, gradually eroding the defensive lines of the Humans and mutant beasts.

They held no advantage in terms of raw power, attrition versus reinforcements, or even on the high-end battlefields. The current situation was less like resistance and more like a death sentence with a temporary reprieve.

Just as Claus felt so stifled he could hardly breathe, the atmosphere across the entire battle zone suddenly shifted.

It was as if something unknown had suddenly mingled with the air. Lesser life forms might not have perceived it clearly, but someone of Claus’s caliber distinctly felt the atmospheric change across the battlefield.

What’s happening... Seeing this, Claus’s heart trembled. His first reaction was that the Demon Tribe had unleashed some new trump card.

The next moment, streams of pure black gas suddenly materialized. Like living entities, the black streams of gas slowly drifted. Then, more and more black gas emerged, until it blanketed the entire battlefield!

The entire battlefield seemed to be enveloped in a spreading black fog, which expanded rapidly.

Just as Claus was at a loss, the black gas, which had been drifting like fog, suddenly solidified. It transformed into countless sharp black threads that sliced directly through the numerous Demon Fiends on the battlefield!

In an instant, as far as Claus’s eyes could reach, whether they were Level 1 Cannon Fodder Monsters or Level 4 Powerful Demons, all were cut by the black threads formed from the black fog!

The next second, Demon Blood spurted in all directions, instantly staining the earth. Even the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier’s absorption power couldn’t process this sheer volume of Demon Blood in time!

"PHEW!"

Seeing this, Claus let out a sigh of relief. He felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. Gazing at the black fog still swirling across the battlefield, Claus muttered softly, as if to himself, It’s finally here...

The black fog was, of course, Wen Yu’s darkness.

Wen Yu had transformed his entire body into pure dark energy, then dispersed it into a black fog—this was to expand his killing range!

And this black fog was, in essence, Wen Yu’s body.

The sensation was extraordinary, as if he himself had become the sky blanketing the battlefield. Wherever the black fog reached, everything fell within his control!

However, this alone wasn’t enough.

Killing these numerous Demon Fiends, even in this state, would only provide more nourishment for the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier.

So...

"Pitch-dark World, activate!"

The next moment, the black fog enveloping the battlefield instantly expanded, transforming into a massive barrier that completely covered several blocks around the Red Stone Hotel.

The numerous Demon Fiends within the Pitch-dark World would continuously supply Wen Yu with inexhaustible stamina. Meanwhile, within this domain, various debilitating effects and corrosive dark energies would constantly erode the Life force of the Demon Fiends!

Wen Yu could also use domain-type powers!

Simultaneously, from within the enveloping darkness, a viridian vine suddenly emerged from the Pitch-dark World. Its tip split open to reveal sharp fangs. Like a streak of green light, it pounced on the Demon Group that had lost their senses in the darkness.

The Pitch-dark World, under Wen Yu’s refinement, had become an exceptionally powerful group killing ability, integrating both offense and defense!

Endless darkness shrouded the blocks around the Red Stone Hotel. The sudden pitch-black conditions caused nearly all life forms to erupt in panic.

After all, no one knew which side this unknown ability belonged to. The ongoing battle even momentarily stalled!

This lasted until a grand voice, like that of a Demigod, echoed throughout the Pitch-dark World.

"All professionists, head for the vicinity of the Red Stone Hotel immediately!"

Then, a similar Spiritual Fluctuation transmitted the same message into the minds of all mutant beasts.

The next second, the darkness thinned considerably—at least enough for professionists and mutant beasts to regain some visibility.

Of course, Wen Yu didn’t yet possess the ability to unilaterally lift vision restrictions for one side only, but that wasn’t important.

As Wen Yu’s words faded, endless darkness instantly wrapped around all the Demon Fiends within the Pitch-dark World. The darkness, like mist, seeped into their bodies.

Visibly, the bodies of countless Demon Fiends began to wither, as if an unknown force was constantly siphoning their Blood and Flesh Essence, slowly leading them to death!

The Pitch-dark World could also drain energy from these Low-grade Demon Fiends. Of course, this offered no improvement to Wen Yu’s upper limits, at best allowing the Pitch-dark World to persist a little longer.

The professionists and mutant beasts, their vision restored, retreated from the front lines in an orderly fashion. As Earth’s creatures withdrew, Wen Yu once again increased his power output, plunging the front lines back into absolute darkness.

In these conditions, the Almighty Demon Vine, which didn’t rely on sight to perceive its surroundings, seemed to be in its element. Its viridian tendrils rapidly spread, sucking Demon Fiend after Demon Fiend dry, leaving them as mere husks.

In a short time, the Almighty Demon Vine had provided Wen Yu with a significant boost to his physical attribute limits.

It had to be said that for the weak, war was a disaster, a cataclysm. But for a powerful expert, it was more akin to a Great Feast.

However, how long could this feast last... That... was not up to Wen Yu...

Once a large number of professionists and mutant creatures had gathered near the Red Stone Hotel, Wen Yu dispersed the dark energy in that specific area.

Light from the Purple Light Spawn and Grow Barrier once again illuminated the area around the Red Stone Hotel. However, this sensation wasn’t necessarily preferable to the preceding pitch-black state—after all, the darkness was his, while this purple light belonged to the enemy.

Claus and Victor were at the entrance of the Red Stone Hotel, managing the situation. Despite the brutal battle, a significant number of Earth’s creatures remained in Las Vegas. At the very least, the area around the Red Stone Hotel was crammed full, with many professionists and mutant beasts even having climbed onto the roofs of nearby buildings.

After a while, once Wen Yu had stabilized the situation within the Pitch-dark World, a thought flickered in his mind. His body instantly materialized from the darkness, and he strode towards the main entrance of the Red Stone Hotel.
