Chapter 46: Chapter 44 The Whisper that Corrupts the Mind_1

Jiang Chen, through Laila’s transcendent ability, communicated with Zero for a while, deepening their bond.

Then, he continued to train the Seed of Flames’ transcendent ability.

After testing, the Seed of Flames module that was absorbed for the second time almost amounted to a +1 enhancement, and its power was greatly increased.

The speed of this enhancement nearly caused the gentleman in the tailcoat to lose his eyeballs in shock.

If the flames Jiang Chen used yesterday were from the Seed of Flames...

Then today, it could almost be called the Parent of Flames.

“Is this the power of a Tian Qi Knight?”

“In just one day, he has gained almost double the growth.”

“No, it might not be growth.”

“Since he can stand against the end, he must inherently possess a power comparable to the gods!”

“Perhaps, when he first arrived, he was just not well adapted to the real world, and much of his power diminished. Now it is recovering as time goes by...”

The gentleman in the tailcoat felt a stir inside.

In fact, although Jiang Chen’s performance in the last two days was very strong, when compared to the abyssal creatures, he still seemed a bit inexperienced...

If dealing with that Decaying creature already required some effort, how could he confront the owner of the tentacles that span worlds?

Afterward, Jiang Chen asked him about methods to develop transcendent abilities.

Although he did not refuse, his heart grew more worried and concerned.

This so-called Tian Qi Mecha Knight did not seem as strong as he claimed. Could he really stand against the end...?

Now, all these concerns vanished!

The Seed of Flames yesterday, the Parent of Flames today...

In a few more days, wouldn’t that make him the ancestor of flames?

With just his crazily growing flame ability, he could burn away all the monsters in the world and completely incinerate the end!

Thinking of that scene, the gentleman in the tailcoat breathed a sigh of relief, as the despair in his heart gradually faded.

With the improvement in his mood, the whispers that echoed in his ears these two days and the illusions that appeared before his eyes also quickly dimmed, greatly improving his state.

Feeling all this, the gentleman in the tailcoat became even more joyful.

He thought for a moment, then called out to Jiang Chen.

“Lord Tian Qi, some things have happened in the refuge these past two days, I think I should inform you...”

“Hmm?”

Jiang Chen stopped practicing.

“It’s not such a big deal, it’s just some mental attacks from the monsters,” he said.

“Moreover, these monsters can only attack those in poor mental states and those who are panicked; they aren’t very powerful on their own.”

Jiang Chen first reassured the gentleman in the tailcoat and appropriately embellished the details.

The latter indeed sighed in relief.

For Transcendents, mental attacks weren’t incomprehensible; it was the complete lack of understanding of what was happening that caused greater fear.

Jiang Chen continued.

“Secondly, the end will last ten days.”

“During these ten days, the monsters of the abyss will cleanse this land, destroy the civilization above, and let everything return to chaos.”

“Correspondingly, if you can survive these ten days, you will welcome a new world.”

The end will only last ten days?

Two days had already passed?

The gentleman in the tailcoat showed a look of surprise, and his last bit of whispering and daze dissipated at the side of his ear.

For people in the midst of the end, the most painful and desperate thing was not knowing what the future held.

Some people even entertained thoughts of self-destruction.

But as long as they knew the specific end time, they would have more hope, more expectation, and could hold on better.

“Finally...”

“Today is the third day, and more powerful monsters will emerge from the abyss.”

“Install a recording device outside the shelter, so those inside can watch me defeat the monsters.”

“This way, they should feel less despair.”

What better way to bolster morale than to witness firsthand the terrifying abyssal monsters being easily crushed and killed?

The tailcoat-clad gentleman nodded vigorously.

“I understand!”

The Steam World had already created devices similar to surveillance cameras—

In fact, the pilots of the steam mechas used similar devices to observe the outside world from inside the mecha.

The gentleman in the tailcoat, along with the professors, took apart a steam mecha, modified the equipment a bit, and successfully built a large surveillance system.

And multiple monitoring screens were installed inside the shelter.

Busy with all these tasks, evening came.

Yet the survivors didn’t feel the slightest bit sleepy.

They gathered in front of the monitors, watching with anticipation.

Until the power was connected, and the screen lit up.

A warrior holding a pale blue lightsaber, clad in purple and white Mecha, stood silently in the midst of flames.
