The Last Chance
Chapter 66 The Last Chance
"Everyone, please calm down, we still have hope!" the gray-haired man said.
According to reliable sources, anyone who is a descendant of an ancient king can enter the Abyss of Death. The people of the Dangerous Village are immune to attacks from the undead because they are descendants of an ancient king.
The Abyss will destroy everything and stop any creature that dares to invade the tomb, but its tomb gates will be open to the people of the Danger Village.
This is probably why the Black Church wiped out the people of Weiju Village; anyone with Weiju Village blood can enter the Abyss of Evil.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gazes toward them, their eyes clearly gleaming!
Seeing that everyone had placed their hopes on him, Fang Gu remained silent for a moment before saying in a somewhat uncertain tone, "I can try. After all, I am a sinner who has slaughtered my own kind. If I can create a little opportunity for the millions of people in this city, I don't care about my life."
Fang Gu acted with great righteousness.
"I'm very happy to hear you say that," Han Ji said, also very pleased.
As Fang Gu finished speaking, Zhang Xiaohou and the girl who saved him also spoke up.
Both of them shared the blood of Weiju Village and expressed their intention to travel together.
To be honest, Mo Fan was a little annoyed when he heard that Zhang Xiaohou was going to the Abyss of Fiends.
But when he heard Zhang Xiaohou's heartfelt words, he realized that Zhang Xiaohou, without even realizing it, had already transformed into a true 'mage'!
Since he was going to die anyway, Mo Fan thought that he might as well try relying on the Earthly Sacred Spring in his body, so he said, "I'll go too. I've drunk from the Earthly Sacred Spring before."
Sha Yuan!
It was a place teeming with tens of thousands of dead souls, and no one knew how deep or unfathomable it was.
No one knows whether jumping in there will actually be any harm, but these people are willing to go in together.
Even the several high-level mages present felt a sense of respect for these young people.
"But how do we get there?" Fang Gu asked.
"Hmph, do you think we're just decorations!" Zhu Meng blew his beard and said domineeringly.
"We'll fight our way through for you!" Du Xiao stepped forward as well, speaking with unwavering resolve.
"I even made a bet with Li Yujian that whoever kills fewer ghosts before they die will be their errand boy in the underworld. Now it's good, there's some hope. Let's kill!" Judge Shi Zheng was quite a bold person.
At this moment, several high-level mages spoke up simultaneously.
They might not be able to wipe out all the undead here.
But they can still forge a path through it.
"good!"
Han Ji suddenly perked up and, looking at the group with slightly excited expressions, said, "Give the corpse of Shanfeng to Lu Huan. To prevent Salang from harming them, I will personally protect these few until we reach the Abyss of Fiends!"
Han Ji's tone was cold and sharp, as if he were reminding the 'Sarang' hidden in the crowd.
The gray-haired man was somewhat stunned when he heard that Han Ji was going to take action personally.
With Han Ji taking the lead, almost all the high-level mages expressed their willingness to open up this path.
As for the crazed deacon Mu He, he had already been hung on the city wall.
Killing this kind of person is far less worthwhile than letting him watch this crisis pass!
Of course, if we fail, then we'll all die together!
……
At the city wall exit, Gojo Satoru was supported by the Imperial Guard Mage. Most of the space and chaos power in his body had been drained by Sha Yuan, and his combat strength was less than 40% of his peak!
"This Abyss of Evil is truly terrifying!" Gojo Satoru clutched his chest, staring intently at the distant void.
If it weren't for the sudden eruption of that strange power hidden within his body, being sucked into the Abyss of Evil would have meant certain death.
Without saying much, the guard mage led Gojo Satoru to the door and then flew back to his original position.
Before long, groups of military mages gathered at the entrance. Gojo Satoru, seeing these people, asked in surprise, "What's going on? Are you trying to leave the inner city barrier?"
Han Ji, Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, and the others were also surprised to see the person standing in front of them.
"Kid, you actually broke free from the pull of the Abyss of Evil!" Zhu Meng exclaimed in shock.
"I was lucky, I almost really died," Gojo Satoru said with a wry smile.
"It's good that they're alive." Han Ji nodded, then looked at Military Commander Yaoting and asked, "Yaoting, is this all the men you can draw from your army?"
"That's all. We need to leave a group of people behind in the inner city. Otherwise, if we break out of the city, the safety barrier will be destroyed, the undead will enter the city, and the result will be the same," Yaoting nodded and said.
This is the largest number of military mages that can be drawn from the roster at present.
There might still be Black Vatican members in the city right now, so we can't send all our personnel out at once. Otherwise, it wouldn't make much sense for Sha Yuan to go there.
However, even with these people, the chances of successfully breaking into the Abyss of Fiends are not very high.
"I have a plan, but it will involve significant sacrifices. Of course, this is entirely voluntary," a judge suddenly said, stepping forward.
The presiding judge was named Shi Zheng. His proposed plan was for him to lead a group of ordinary people to act as bait to help the main force deal with the undead army.
Upon hearing this proposal, the senior executives immediately rejected it.
But Shi Zheng insisted, saying, "I said it's voluntary. Gather volunteers now. Whether there are any or not, we have to get there. Time is of the essence."
"How could anyone possibly be willing to do something like this?"
"The common people are weak and unlikely to join, and besides, they are not mages after all."
"."
The group started muttering amongst themselves, one after another.
Shi Zheng insisted, "If we have it, we have it; if not, we'll just set off."
He made the suggestion, and Shi Zheng also expressed his willingness to lead the team himself.
He wasn't afraid of death; he just hoped that his death would be meaningful.
……
During this time, Du Xiao told Wu Tiao Wu about what everyone needed to do. Wu Tiao Wu was stunned when he heard that they were going to attack Sha Yuan.
A moment later, the group entered Anyuan Gate. The golden barrier had become much darker than before, now appearing as a brownish-gold color. They could see the miasma exhaled by tens of thousands of undead surging like a raging tide, crashing against the golden barrier and the inner city walls!
The city walls were constantly trembling, and the golden barrier was shaking from wave after wave of undead attacks.
Gojo Satoru also joined the escort team.
In fact, Han Ji and the others did not want this young man to take another risk, but they could not persuade Gojo Satoru to insist on going.
As they emerged, a large force, mainly composed of men, arrived at the North City, led by military mages.
It was completely dark, and the dim lighting barely allowed them to make out their somber faces. They moved slowly, and some even had blank expressions, like a group of death row inmates walking toward the guillotine.
They were all ordinary people, without a trace of magic about them.
Upon seeing these ordinary people here, Mo Fan and the others inquired why there were so many ordinary people.
Military Commander Yaoting also gave them an explanation.
This explanation immediately put a heavy pressure on Mo Fan and the others.
Everyone has the right to choose to live, but also the right to choose to die.
