The sweat is mine, but the numbers are all theirs.

Lu Yuan didn't know what had happened. With his current abilities, he probably couldn't help. He could only try harder to become stronger... even stronger.

Only in this way can one stand out.

At that moment, a white flame residing on his body, radiating an aura of eternity, trembled slightly and appeared before him.

Boom! As flames exploded, the six-winged pure white angel slowly revealed itself, its wings spreading out to show its slender and perfect body.

Resurrected.

But this also means that she died once.

"Did something happen?"

Chi Hui's eyes remained indifferent, showing no emotion whatsoever at the sight of any death. "Total annihilation."

Lu Yuan immediately became serious. Ever since he learned that the signal was blocked, he had been thinking of having Chi Hui act with Hong Xinglong and the others to ensure that some information could be transmitted.

After all, according to them, this gap in the fourth line is extremely important and may determine the fate of the entire third line of defense.

If this place is breached, countless more people will die.

I never expected the information I heard to be so... terrible.

Hong Xinglong was a level 100 powerhouse, only below the throne, and the other team members were all powerful combat professionals above level 95, yet they were all wiped out in less than half a day.

"Just how many demons are there?"

"A king of a different race, and tens of thousands of abyssal demons? This is just what I've seen; the actual situation may be far more complex."

Retaking the front line is far more difficult than defending it, and given the current state of Tianyuan Town's defenses, there is virtually no hope of retaking it.

There simply aren't enough combat forces available to mobilize.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sighed and could only report the information and let the tall guy figure out a solution.

All he can do is try his best to become stronger.

Lu Yuan pulled the six-winged angel away and gave her the Holy Source Fire Pattern.

Sensing the familiar aura, Chi Hui raised his eyes, but remained indifferent and aloof, for he was, after all, a supreme god.

It's almost impossible to elicit any reaction from her.

"Do you recognize this thing?" Lu Yuan asked.

Chi Hui, seated on the chair, gently spun the fire patterns.

The moment they made contact, the Sacred Source Fire Pattern flashed with intense light, completely different from when it was in Lu Yuan's hands.

It seemed as if it had received a response, or perhaps it was surrendering.

"I recognize its superior power, the sacred light fire of the Angelic Temple of Light. When I went to exchange it, they refused and even wanted me to join them."

"You didn't join?"

"Of course, does a filthy temple even deserve my participation?" Blazing Light said casually. "When negotiations broke down, we started fighting. Those despicable fellows fought against me using the Holy Light Fire."

A power comparable to the supreme god? And even the once-powerful Blazing Radiance desired it? That must be incredibly strong.

No wonder he reached the super-rank level with only lower-level power.

Those 300,000 contribution points are definitely worth it!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan urged, "Then quickly absorb this Sacred Origin Fire Pattern and comprehend and master it."

A hint of disdain flashed across Chi Hui's face. "If it were the Holy Light Flame, I might be interested, but this? It's no match for my End Power at all."

He's not good enough for her.

Lu Yuan remained expressionless. "Suck it quickly."

Chi Hui snorted arrogantly, "I won't inhale!"

What a disobedient god! He's giving me a real headache! Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and grabbed her Yu Yi.

Then...

"Will you inhale? Will you inhale? Will you inhale?!"

Lu Yuan was simply rebuking the six-winged angel, telling her to absorb the Holy Source Fire Pattern.

Hey hey hey hey!

The six-winged angel cried after being scolded, its lovely eyes filled with lovely tears.

"I, I'll inhale..."

"Do you know you were wrong?"

"Yes, I understand..."

"Then quickly admit I'm wrong, say it a thousand times!"

Lu Yuan used the same trick again, making the eternal six-winged angel sing the song "I was wrong" once more.

After repeating "I was wrong" ten thousand times, the six-winged angel sobbed, "I...I'm done talking..."

"Alright, then hurry up and absorb and master the Sacred Source Fire Pattern."

The six-winged angel's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at the sacred runes in Lu Yuan's hand that resembled flowing flames, and she said tremblingly, "Then, then give it to me."

"When did I say I was going to give it to you?" Lu Yuan toyed with the Sacred Origin Fire Pattern. "This is a good item that cost 300,000 contribution points. You should at least say 'I was wrong' 20,000 times."

"I'll think about it and see if I should give it to you."

"You, you bad guy!!"

Why are you swearing? What a terrible god!

It is unknown how much time passed.

Just as the six-winged angel was about to fall asleep, she finally absorbed the Holy Source Fire Pattern, which, through evolution, merged with her Eternal Flame.

This instantly amplified the power of the Eternal Flame by countless times, and also gave it a purifying property, capable of purifying everything and causing the target's power to continuously drain away.

Furthermore, the rebirth effect of Eternal Wings has become even more terrifying, increasing from four times to six times the increase in all attributes!

A six-fold increase in attributes after dying once? Isn't that outrageous?

Even Lu Yuan, who was used to seeing strange numerical mechanics, was furious.

I coaxed the six-winged angel to sleep.

They quickly woke her up again.

……

The atmosphere at the Southern Xia General Headquarters was heavy and oppressive.

"The fourth line has fallen. Judging from the fact that it has been stuck there for so long without breaking the signal blockade and no one coming out to send messages, it should be true."

"Just now, Lu Yuan, a first-level student of the Divine Sparrow, also sent a message that Hong Xinglong and others who led the team to the fourth front were all wiped out."

What are your thoughts?

Deputy Commander Zhou thought for a moment, "Lu Yuan is someone the Crimson Lotus Throne values. Although I don't know how he found out, there's absolutely no need for him to doubt it."

"Therefore, it is certain that the fourth line has now become a huge hole and must be plugged immediately."

The commanders exchanged bewildered glances, then asked, "Who should we send?"

Or rather, do they have any other people they can send out?

With the throne exposed on all sides, there was no way to spare it to deal with the alien king of the fourth front.

Xu Feng rubbed his temples. What worried him most right now wasn't even the Fourth Front.

He has remained silent ever since reading Honglian's last words.

The law, assimilation.

Why is there no solution...?

This is something that most throne holders don't need to worry about, because the laws they master haven't reached that terrifying level, so there's no question of assimilation.

I can't hold on any longer.

Xu Feng closed his eyes. He didn't know what would happen, nor did he know what the right thing to do was to take the next step.

Just then, a commander cried out in alarm, "No, this is terrible! The fifth line has been attacked from the rear by a large number of Abyssal Demons, we... we can't hold it!"

"Six, the same goes for the Sixth Front!"

"Where did they come from?!" He understood as soon as he said that.

The one they were just discussing how to deal with... the Fourth Front.

Every few minutes thereafter, news came that a front had been suddenly attacked, or even... directly breached.

"Commander-in-Chief, what... should we do?"

Seeing pairs of eyes looking at him, Xu Feng felt a deep sense of powerlessness and sighed.

"Activate all teleportation arrays across all fronts and retreat to the fourth line of defense."

With this hole in the fourth line, it will be extremely difficult to hold the third line of defense when attacked from both sides; the price to pay will be too high.

They...can't afford it anymore.

"Yes."

All the commanders spoke in low voices.

If you can't hold on, retreating will only push you step by step toward collapse.

The possibility of this war is becoming increasingly slim...
