Chapter 207 - Reunion After a Long Separation

“Good! I look forward to your performance!”

The Protoss nodded and agreed to Vincent’s request. He snapped his fingers on his remaining three arms and sent Vincent away in an instant.

Vincent once again experienced an illusory feeling around him. By the time he regained his sight, the Protoss was no longer there. In front of him was the entrance to Black Hole Zero of the Human Race!

“I’m finally back!”

Vincent muttered and sighed as he walked towards the entrance of the Black Hole with a tired look on his face.

After calculating the time carefully, Vincent realized that he had been taken away by the Protoss for nearly a month. During this period of time, Vincent’s physical and mental strength had been greatly exhausted.

The exhaustion of his physical body was repaired by psionic power when he charged out of the toxic abyss. However, the heavy fatigue and powerlessness in his mental strength made him feel like he could be crushed mentally at any time.

When a person is feeling helpless, the first thing that they want to do is to return home and see their own family.

“Vincent!”

Suddenly, a slightly trembling voice sounded behind Vincent.

Vincent turned around and saw Angelina and Avril looking at him with travel-worn eyes. They were both filled with shock and joy.

“You guys…”

Vincent smiled happily. Suddenly, his eyes went black, and he fainted.

He was already on the verge of collapsing. When he saw the people he trusted the most, he instantly gave up on his defenses. Intense fatigue surged throughout his body and he fell asleep.

In his sleep, Vincent walked through countless broken worlds and faced countless enemies.

In the Black Hole world, there was a Monster Horde, the strange and changeable Phantom Race, the brutal and violent Demon Race, and the powerful and terrifying Protoss Race that made people feel powerless.

Vincent suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep. He saw himself lying in Angelina’s arms, while Avril lit a bonfire beside him. She looked over quietly at him.

“You’re awake!” said Avril happily.

Vincent shook his head to wake himself up. He turned to look at Angelina who was sleeping soundly behind him. He whispered to Avril, “Hmm, why are you here? Didn’t you retreat back to the Human World?”

Avril pursed her lips and said, “We temporarily retreated to Black Hole Zero and then we re-entered the Black Hole world to look for you. We circled around here for a month, but we still could not find any traces of you. Originally, we wanted to return to the Black Hole today and look for you using another way. We didn’t expect you to appear. What happened during this period of time?”

Vincent sighed and briefly recounted what had happened.

“Now, I have obtained the Hand of God. Although it is a form of strength for me, it has also become an invisible threat!”

Vincent looked at his left arm and sighed with worry.

Avril mustered up her courage and sat beside Vincent. She held Vincent’s palm with both hands and comforted him, “Don’t worry about things that haven’t happened yet. Our mission is to protect the current Human Race, isn’t it?”

Vincent looked at Avril. Ever since he heard the conversation between her and Angelina, he had already understood her feelings. After hearing her comforting words, he did not know how to reply. He gently held Avril’s hand.

Avril no longer had her usual valiant bearing. She lowered her head and said softly, “Vincent, I definitely did not say those words to disturb you and Angelina. But I was afraid that if I don’t say it during that time, I won’t have the chance to say it again!”

“I know, I know!” Vincent nodded and responded softly.

Avril and Vincent shook hands quietly. Neither of them continued because they still had to consider a more important matter, and that was Angelina!

“The two of you can finally be true to each other!”

Suddenly, Angelina’s voice sounded, causing Vincent and Avril to panic and turn their heads awkwardly.

It turned out that Angelina had already woken up. She had only been pretending to be asleep to give them a chance to reveal their true feelings for each other.

“Angelina!” said Vincent softly. However, he was interrupted by Angelina’s raised hand.

“There’s no need to explain. Sister and I have already made a decision. From now on, we will accompany you to wander around the Black Hole world. You must be responsible for us!” said Angelina.

Vincent nodded and reached out his other hand to hold Angelina’s palm. He stroke it gently.

Angelina and Avril were nestled in Vincent’s arms. The three of them sat quietly in front of the bonfire and looked into the distance at the endless Black Hole world.

Vincent’s state of mind that had been in a state of chaos for a long time was finally calmed down by the company of the two beauties. At that moment, he had a new understanding of the future dangers and countermeasures.

With these two beauties by his side and the humans behind him, Vincent knew that he could not retreat!

The next day, the three of them ate some simple food and resumed their journey!

“Vincent, do you think that the current Phantom Race is no longer a concern?” asked Angelina.

“Yes, restrictions have been imposed on the Black Holes in the Phantom world. Phantoms who are above level 10 will not be able to pass through the Black Hole unless they break the restrictions of the Protoss!” said Vincent.

Avril asked, “Since you made a deal with the Protoss, why didn’t you just ask him to close the Phantom Race’s Black Hole completely, or make sure that no one can come out?”

Vincent replied, “After all, the Phantom Race is the most powerful neighbor of the Human Race. Having a strong neighbor on the side will give the Human Race a sense of danger. It will make the Human Race more united. At the same time, it can also motivate the Human Race to become stronger. However, we cannot let the neighbor’s strength far exceed ours by several times or even dozens of times. If that happens, there will be a danger of destruction!”

Angelina and Avril nodded together. Vincent’s long-term consideration for the future had always been above everyone else. Therefore, they would always support Vincent’s decision unconditionally!

After walking for more than half a day, a Black Hole suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.

“There are traces of monsters gathering here. It seems like this is also a world that has been invaded by monsters!”

Avril pointed at the empty space in front of the Black Hole.

The monsters that were previously gathered by the Phantoms had been wiped out by the Protoss. However, Vincent and his team could still estimate the strength of the world behind the Black Hole through the traces left behind by the monsters in front of the Black Hole.

Vincent nodded and said, “The two of you stay back. I’ll be at the front. We’ll go in and take a look. If there are still monsters attacking inside, then we’ll lend them a hand. If there’s already a Monster Horde inside, then we’ll go and look for a possibility to cooperate!”

“Okay!”

Angelina and Avril nodded together. They slowed down and stood in a triangle formation along with Vincent. They then walked into the world inside the Black Hole.

Vincent carefully watched the world in front of him go from darkness to light. Rows of huge black muzzles appeared in his field of vision. It was as if he had arrived at a world of firepower that was made with steel and firearms.

“Intruders detected. Everyone on high alert. Prepare to lock onto the target and begin the attack!”

Suddenly, a mechanical voice sounded, echoing throughout the entire world.

All the giant cannons were aimed at Vincent and the other two girls. A large amount of light began to gather within the cannons. They were still charging up their energy.

“Be careful!”

After seeing this, Vincent did not dare to be the slightest bit careless. He raised his left arm high, turned around, and used his right hand to protect Avril and Angelina.

“Boom!”

Countless huge cannons erupted at the same time. It was as if the entire world had sunk into a pool of lightning. Just the intense sound of the cannon fire was enough to kill monsters below level four.

The laser beam shot towards Vincent like a pillar. The energy-gathering cannon poured down like rain on where they stood earlier.

After a series of explosions, the entire world sank into the billowing thick smoke. The ground cracked, as if it was a purgatory.

After the smoke dissipated, there was only a golden disc left behind. The intense bombardment destroyed everything else.

“Whoosh!”

The golden disc suddenly turned and kept shrinking in the air, revealing Vincent and the other two. In the end, it returned to Vincent’s golden left arm.

“Vincent, what do we do now?”

Angelina looked at the terrifying firepower of the steel fortress in front of her and could not help but asked Vincent nervously.

Vincent moved his restored left arm and said, “It’s okay. Although their firepower is terrifying, their power is only average. They are not able to threaten our safety yet!”

Avril held the hilt of the knife on her back with both hands and asked in a deep voice, “If they launch an attack, should we retaliate?”

“Let’s wait and see. Be careful!”

Vincent stopped Avril and told her not to be impulsive. They then walked forward and raised their hands high.

“We are not invading monsters. We are envoys from the human world. We come with sincerity and peace. Please believe us. If there is an opportunity, I think we can cooperate to resist the threat of the Black Hole in the future!”

Countless cannons moved along with Vincent’s movements, but they did not launch another attack. It was as if they were observing Vincent’s intentions.

“The target’s strength has not been detected. It is an unknown threat. Please determine its danger level!”

The mechanical voice sounded again in the steel fortress, and then there was a moment of silence.

Vincent quietly observed the situation around him, and suddenly thought that this might be a defensive fortification that was remotely operated by an intelligent system. In reality, there was not a single native life form within!

“Rumble!”

Suddenly, the main gate of the steel fortress slowly opened, and all the cannons were raised one after another, displaying a peaceful side.

A floating robot flew out from the fortress and made a series of sounds.

“Welcome to Esville. Before you harm our world, we will treat you as friends from another world!”
