Chapter 966: Chapter 127: She Will Not Abandon a Single Subject (Part 4)

A few seconds later, this pitch-black domain expanded to five kilometers!

Fisher’s Spiritual Sound was transmitted to the forefront of the breakthrough squad.

“Everyone, I am ‘Living Fish’. Now…let me bring up the rear.”

This was a hard battle Lin Lin had never experienced before.

Even though he possessed the famed blade gifted by Osmond, which could carve out a path in the mountain of corpses and sea of blood time and again, he could not see the glimmer of “survival”.

Living Fish rejoined the squad, and became stronger!

In this desperate situation, it was an incredibly encouraging piece of news. However, Lin Lin knew that this encouragement would not last long; in the previous fierce battle, the captains’ spirits were already exhausted.

Not everyone possessed Fisher’s “bloodline”. The number of these bone-winged creatures remained endless.

Even the captains had exerted their full strength, let alone the already injured team members.

This Black River had probably only been crossed halfway.

Every minute and every second became extraordinarily tormenting…

At this moment, the breakthrough squad had fallen into despair. Someone voluntarily suggested to stay behind, and without Fisher’s abilities, staying behind in such circumstances meant sacrifice… A mournful silence pervaded the bottom of the Black River. Updates are released by novel※fire.net

No one chanted the name of Her Majesty the Empress.

It was not because they did not believe in the Empress.

On the contrary, it was precisely because the Transcendents who stepped into this river were the pillars of the North Continent, the absolute vanguard.

They were already aware of Her Majesty’s “situation”… Over the years, Her Majesty had remained on the second floor of the tower, no matter what happened, never appearing. This decision led to rampant speculation across the Five Continents, with rumors swirling furiously.

The appearance of the Super Large Disaster Realm at Moon City Fortress, Her Majesty ordered Rusty Bones to guard it.

The emergence of the Duolu River Disaster Realm, Her Majesty entrusted it entirely to White Lizard and Purple Rain.

During the most challenging times for the North Continent, even the Angel Envoys scarcely showed up…

Her Majesty must have encountered “difficulties”.

Her Majesty the Empress was supporting the entire Central City on her own, the furnace operating constantly. She provided warmth to the entire North Continent, while the land of the North Continent was draining and squeezing her, confining her to the tower.

The reason they fought desperately at the Duolu River this time was because they guessed that the potential “energy” at the Duolu River was exactly what Her Majesty needed most at that moment.

A familiar voice echoed in Lin Lin’s Spirit Sea.

It was Zhong Yuan’s voice. At that moment, the blond man engaged in fierce battle in the squad did not glance in Lin Lin’s direction at all. He seemed entirely immersed in the fight, but the Phoenix Ring had exhausted its reserves, spewing only weak flames…

“Don’t look at me, just focus on forging a path… I have a question for you.”

Zhong Yuan continued fighting fiercely.

His spirit was worn to the extreme, but the question he asked left Lin Lin slightly taken aback.

“Will Her Majesty the Empress come?”

Having known each other for many years, they were thoroughly familiar with each other’s backgrounds.

But Lin Lin had never told Zhong Yuan about his true origins… Not because he didn’t trust Zhong Yuan, but because some secrets simply couldn’t be spoken. As life’s best “opponent”, he didn’t want his fair competition with Zhong Yuan to become tainted by some unchoosable special identity.

“Why… would you ask me?” Lin Lin’s voice was hoarse.

In that brief instant, countless scenes flashed through his mind, recalling the details of his interactions with Zhong Yuan, wondering if there was something he missed, overlooked…

Zhong Yuan smiled lightly and said softly, “It just seems like we’re all going to die, so I couldn’t help but think, you share the surname Lin with Her Majesty the Empress, what if you are somehow related? Could we rely on that connection to survive?”

Lin Lin was silent for a moment.

“Her Majesty the Empress will come.”

He smiled, his voice very certain, “Whether I share the surname Lin is not important… She will not abandon any of her subjects.”
