A different world game? A different world game!

Three massive, purplish-black crystalline scythes, composed of pure destructive energy, tore through the dying twilight.

The void is destruction, and void creatures are born with the characteristic of destruction.

This attack, carrying an aura of annihilation, mercilessly struck down at the collapsed Old Jack and the unconscious Ella.

Time seemed to freeze.

Old Jack's cloudy eyes reflected the approaching shadow of the Death Scythe, and behind him, three cold, despair-inducing triangular heads—the Breakers.

Dying?

I don't know if he can be resurrected.

Can a body that has been contaminated or damaged be resurrected?
What about big trees?
These questions cannot be answered.

But in any case, I hope my soul will not be captured by the void and become one of them; I hope my soul can return to the torch.

At the very least, one should not be a part of the void.

Just as the scythe was about to touch flesh and blood.

Om-!
A pale golden light wall, not dazzling but incredibly solid, seemingly embodying the very concept of "immovability," instantly rose before Old Jack.

The surface of the light wall is covered with fine, orderly inscriptions, like the most solid rock layer deep in the earth, carrying an eternal and unwavering will.

The power representing the rules shone brightly above, without any attempt to conceal it.

when!when!when!
Three deafening, ear-piercing bangs exploded.

The powerful and heavy scythe of destruction slammed into the wall of light, sparking blinding energy sparks and the sizzling sound unique to void erosion.

The power that was strong enough to cut through space only left three violently flashing dents on the wall of light, and then, like a raging wave crashing against a reef, it was firmly held back and could not advance an inch.

This was a devastating blow, yet it was all in vain.

It was as if time had been stretched out in an instant.

"boom--!"

A thick beam of light, composed entirely of blinding holy light of order, pierced through the core of a triangular structure suspended by a boundary-breaker without warning, like a comet tearing through the night sky.

The light arrow brought not an explosion, but absolute "purification".

The triangular core, which was gathering power, was like snowflakes thrown into molten lava; before it could even scream, it crumbled and vanished inch by inch in a burst of incandescent light.

The massive Boundary Breaker froze, as if its backbone had been removed, and crashed heavily to the ground, sending a cloud of amethystified soil and low-level crystal-footed insects flying.

Under the power of the world, it quickly vanished, crumbled into ashes and disappeared, leaving only a gift from the world.

boom!boom!
Following the beam of light were two muffled, heart-stopping impacts.

A short, stocky figure, like a mobile fortress, charged into the battlefield with the force of wind and thunder. A heavy steel flail, wrapped in scorching alchemical flames, slammed into the lower limb joint of another Breaker.

“Ha! Try this, you purple rotten stones!” Baron roared.

The crystal armor covering the armor cracked and shattered under the combined assault of the dwarves' brute force and the high temperatures of alchemy.

At the same time, a ghostly figure flashed past the third Boundary Breaker with a shrill whooshing sound.

But it didn't react at all.

Two beams of poisonous, eerie blue light precisely struck the energy node at the tail that supported its body, unleashing a small patch of corrosive, deep purple toxic mist that instantly weakened its stability and energy intensity.

The smoke and dust dissipated slightly.

Amidst the dust, five figures stood firmly before the dying Night's Watchman, like divine blades cleaving through a torrent of filth.

Directly in front, the tall warrior Cedric holds a massive tower shield engraved with intricate runes in one hand, the very embodiment of that immovable barrier.

His face, as resolute as a rock, was expressionless, only coldly scrutinizing. The lingering purple light eroding the shield was being rapidly erased by the inscriptions of order.

A moment later in mid-air, the elegant elven ranger Isabella slowly lowered the longbow that radiated a divine light from her hand.

The bowstring of the longbow was still trembling slightly, and her sharp eyes were locked on the remaining two boundary breakers, without a trace of emotion.

On the left stands the dwarf Baron, his heavy armor gleaming coldly in the setting sun, his power flail wreathed in flames and steam, like an enraged furnace god of war.

The orc Lydia on the right was a blurry figure, her dual short blades shrouded in a chilling, poisonous mist, like a shadowy cheetah poised to strike.

At the very back, the Holy Light Priest Oliver, dressed in a simple white robe, radiated a warm and powerful light.

A phantom scepter made of pure holy light hovered above his head, dispelling the increasingly heavy and despairing sense of emptiness on the battlefield.

"Hold on, Hamton's Watch! You've done a great job!"

Oliver's calm and powerful voice, blessed by the Holy Light, rang out, carrying a warm current that soothed the soul.

His staff pointed at Old Jack and Ella, and a warm, golden light, like the rising sun, instantly enveloped them.

Divine Resurrection! Healing Prayer! Purifying Light!
The light of the high-level holy light spells layered upon each other, and powerful life force flowed into the parched and dying bodies of old Jack and Ella like a sweet spring.

Old Jack's collapsed sternum bones were restored and healed under the guidance of holy light.

The terrifying corrosive wound on Ella's shoulder hissed under the burning holy flames, the vicious purple color quickly faded, and new flesh healed at a visible speed. Her tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and a trace of color returned to her pale face.

Oliver's treatment was precise and effective, not only saving the body but also powerfully dispelling the invading whispers of the void.

The intense pain receded like a tide, leaving only a feeling of exhaustion from surviving a catastrophe and an unbelievable warmth.

"You held your ground, sealed the breaches, and showed us the way."

Cedric's deep voice carried a steely approval. He tilted his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the two men. His eyes held the highest affirmation for a warrior, brief yet powerful.

"Now, leave this to us."

Old Jack vaguely heard these words, forced his eyes open a crack, and then closed them tightly.

The two surviving boundary breakers did not seem to be deterred by the instantaneous demise of their companion.

They possess intelligence, but only capable of destruction, devoid of emotion.

They know no fear, no fatigue, no death.

The blood-red light flashing on their triangular bodies focused on the newly arrived "Guardians" squad, and a chilling will that froze the soul emanated from the space.

It is not spoken, but a whisper directly imprinted on the spirit, like a soft murmur from the void.

"Order...the struggle of ants, futile, the world will eventually return to nothingness...merging into us to attain eternity...annihilation."

The voice was hollow and indifferent, as if stating a predetermined and unchangeable physical law, carrying absolute negation and a cold allure.

"Nirvana?"

Cedric took a sudden step forward, the massive tower shield slamming heavily onto the ground, a visible golden force field rippled outwards, instantly dispelling the unsettling whisper.

His voice, booming like a great bell, echoed clearly across the battlefield surging with energy: "Annihilation is not our end! Your so-called 'eternity' is nothing but a complete denial of existence!"

“What we protect is the ordinary life on this land, the harvested grain, the warmth of the hearth, and the laughter of children! In the name of the ‘Immovable Barrier’, we declare—this path is blocked!” Isabella’s long, elven ears twitched slightly, her eyes showing no anger, only a chilling coldness like a deep pool.

"Void is nothingness, merely a worm of destruction, laughable and pathetic."

Her slender fingers rested on the bowstring, and a pure arrow of order condensed at her fingertips. The arrowhead pointed directly at the core of a Boundary Breaker, and she coldly declared: "In the name of 'Demon-Slaying Arrow Heart'—Purification Begins!"

Before the words were even finished, the battle had already broken out again!

"Dwarves only believe in the 'logic' of the weapons in their hands. I'll smash your disgustingly glowing stone body to pieces!"

Baron roared, slamming his fully armored feet into the ground, and his power flail lashed out like a raging serpent.

His target was not the Breaker's true form, but the low-level void creatures that were surging in like a tide once again.

Swarms of crystal-footed insects and screeching insects.

As the flail slashed, flames erupted forth, the surging alchemical flames pouring down like a crimson tsunami, instantly burning large swaths of writhing, filthy purple moss into charred, black smoke-filled ashes.

"Burn you disgusting reptiles to ashes!"

Lydia's figure had long since disappeared from the spot, leaving only a barely perceptible distortion.

The next instant, she appeared where several clawed war beasts were pouncing on Old Jack and Ella.

Her twin blades moved so fast they were nothing more than a net of deathly blue light, striking with pinpoint accuracy. Each swing was accompanied by the shattering of the crystal joints of the clawed war beasts and their mournful screams.

Like an invisible barrier, it intercepts and dismembers any low-level monsters that slip through the net, ensuring that Oliver's treatment is not disturbed.

The two surviving Boundary Breakers sensed a tremendous threat.

The black hole at the center of the triangle spun wildly, gathering terrifying energy. With its crystal armor stomping heavily, it charged towards Cedric and Isabella with the force to tear through space.

The massive, crystalline scythe tore through the air, carrying with it a deadly purplish-black storm.

"barrier!"

Cedric gave a low shout and raised his shield to meet the attack!

The enormous tower shield no longer seemed to be a weapon, but rather a manifested wall containing the rule of "immovability".

boom! boom!
The two Breakers' full-force slashes collided with the tower shield once more! This time, Cedric did not withstand the attack head-on. The angle of the tower shield adjusted extremely subtly at the moment of contact, and the flowing order runes on the shield surface suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light.

The terrifying kinetic energy and tearing power contained in the giant scythe were transformed and guided the moment they touched the shield, like a raging mud ox entering the sea, accompanied by an even stronger golden light rebound.

The two menacing boundary breakers were as if struck in the chest by an invisible giant hammer; their massive bodies suddenly choked, and their charge came to an abrupt halt.

He lost his footing and was forced back half a step, causing even the core of the triangular body to shake violently.

The ground beneath Cedric's feet suddenly cracked open in a spiderweb-like pattern, but he himself remained completely still.

Just as the boundary breaker was disrupted by the backlash,

call out--!
A holy arrow, thinner and more concentrated than before, seemingly capable of piercing through everything, vanished silently from Isabella's bowstring.

The space itself rippled along the trajectory of the arrow.

No! It didn't disappear! It broke through the limitations of space!
Before the core of a triangular prism that had been knocked back, the arrow seemed to have been waiting there all along.

puff!

A slight piercing sound was heard.

The arrow, imbued with the power of the "Demon-Slaying Arrow Core" rule, easily tore through the fragile energy shield surrounding the Breaker's core and plunged with unparalleled precision into the rotating black hole at the center of the triangle.

This time, there was no deafening roar, only a crisp sound like shattering glass.

The core suddenly dimmed.

The triangular body stopped rotating, and the purplish-black energy film on its surface withered and shriveled like a deflated balloon.

The massive body stiffened for a moment, then its internal structure began to disintegrate uncontrollably, dissipating into large swaths of purplish-black energy mist.

Isabella's second arrow was another instant kill.

She is known as the "Demon-Slaying Arrow," and her attacks are highly effective against disordered energies.

Therefore, every attack that hits the core of her body can cause fatal damage.

Her teammates also recognized this, so they created opportunities for her to hit the target with a single blow, deciding the outcome of the battle.

The last Boundary Breaker let out a silent shriek, seemingly realizing the gap between the two sides.

The red light on its triangular body suddenly became unstable and violent.

It stopped attacking and instead frantically plunged its twin scythes into the earth, while the holes in the surging energy membrane on its body surface simultaneously emitted blinding purplish-black light.

"It's sacrificing its core! It's detonating itself to stabilize and expand the rift!" Oliver's keen mental power instantly detected the chaotic energy fluctuations, and he shouted a warning.

The other two level 10 Night Watchers also reacted extremely quickly.

"Barron!"

Isabella shouted sharply, and her longbow instantly pointed at the self-destructing Boundary Breaker.

"understand!"

Baron reversed the flail, abandoning the burning of the smaller monsters, and the thick flail, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom and alchemical flames, slammed into the joints of the self-destructing boundary breaker, attempting to break it.

Lydia approached like a ghost, her twin blades flashing with a deadly blue venom, aiming for the foot joint that supported its body.

However, the boundary breaker was determined to self-destruct.

It ignored physical attacks, and its entire energy collapsed towards its core in an instant.

Boom——! ! !
A tremendous explosion occurred, ten times more powerful than the one Old Jack and his friends had witnessed before.

Clearly, it did not simply detonate itself; as a boundary breaker, it inherently possessed limitations in the destruction of space.

The death of the boundary-breaker had already had a significant impact on the surrounding space.

The fact that more void creatures are pouring out from the torn spatial rift at this time is proof of this.

Its self-destruction this time caused destruction to space, and the energy it had just accumulated made its power far exceed expectations.

A massive, purplish-black energy mushroom cloud shot into the sky.

The devastating shockwave, mixed with spatial debris, spread wildly in all directions.

"The fortifications will stand forever!"

Cedric roared, and the massive tower shield once again burst forth with unprecedented light, forming a gigantic golden barrier spanning tens of meters, forcefully blocking the direct onslaught of the destructive shockwave.

Isabella's arrow and Oliver's Holy Light Shield precisely covered themselves and their two teammates, weakening the aftershocks. (End of Chapter)
