Li Hao had seen it long ago. All the souls were being drawn towards the towering azure crystal tower in the center of the city square. To be precise, it was a massive energy body composed entirely of k23 crystals, identical to the immense power Li Hao had once sensed through Zhuang Zhou.

Clearly, Theseus's soul was currently in a chaotic state, not yet activated.

Just as Li Hao was about to mobilize his energy to attack, Romero quickly stopped him, "Attacking him is useless, and it will activate his unconscious retaliation. Nangong Yuhang has tried it, all kinds of attacks are ineffective. Mainly the scale is too large, the entire city and the soul are one."

Li Hao smiled. "Even if I can't beat him, I still have to try. Romero, I've always been grateful to have an opponent like you. I'll leave the rest to you."

Romero smiled, looking at everything before him. Actually, at this point, success or failure wasn't a matter of effort. It was time to fight. "Li-ge, we haven't lived this life in vain."

Li Hao nodded and patted Romero. The outcome of this battle was already out of control, and Li Hao couldn't even predict what changes might occur. But having come this far, he had to fight to the death. "Stay away from me."

Romero didn't hesitate and immediately went to the teleportation array. In case, and he meant in case, Li Hao really failed, humanity might have to start another interstellar survival.

Li Hao paused for a few seconds. He knew that the battle outside was still going on, with casualties every minute. He didn't have time. Countless images flashed through his mind in an instant: the laughter of a bunch of little rascals, fighting over food with Zuo Xiaopang, and A Youyou. His life was complete.

Li Hao's body turned golden again, and the terrifying energy released melted any souls that approached the golden light.

He had to succeed. No one could stop him. Whether Theseus was Blee or not, all the grievances would end with him!

The surrounding space began to collapse. In a daze, the vast Nemean Royal City began to shake, cracks appeared in the walls, the energy shield became unstable, and the azure soul crystal tower was also awakened. The immense power made Romero feel like he was about to be crushed, let alone Li Hao, who was deep in the eye of the storm. At this moment, it actually let out a wail, as if it were a living thing. It was no longer the gentle comfort that Romero had seen, but a hellish energy storm. Countless wronged souls rushed towards Li Hao one after another. The golden energy and the blue energy constantly neutralized each other, devouring each other frantically. And Romero also saw a huge figure on the crystal tower, a bald head with three eyes, but the body was formed by countless wronged souls. Countless heads stretched to infinity, an unparalleled soul strength.

Romero knew that this was the king of the Nemeans, Theseus. He also had a small part of his soul, and some memory fragments flooded in for a moment.

Theseus, the greatest king in the history of the Nemean civilization. He pushed his civilization to the extreme and discovered Kepler, a planet more suitable for the Nemeans. They implemented this great plan, teleporting the city to the Kepler planet.

The plan was successful, they did it. But during the teleportation process, the entire city was a huge whole, and all the Nemeans were linked together, with Theseus uniformly mobilizing energy. However, during this teleportation process, a mutation occurred. Theseus felt an immense desire. Somehow, his desire expanded to the extreme. He wanted to achieve something that no previous Nemean king had been able to do, to become a god!

He activated the soul-draining mode, absorbing everyone clean. This great king ultimately possessed godlike power, but this power had not been converted and purified, and it had completely broken through the limit of what the pure soul-draining mode could withstand, completely violating the law. This also filled countless fragmented consciousnesses with wails and resentment. The vast souls intertwined, and countless complex thoughts collided, leaving Theseus in a chaotic sleep most of the time. However, this Nemean king had indeed reached the peak of life. Even in this situation, he did not collapse, and found balance in the chaos. Over time, he slowly sorted everything out, guiding the earthlings to find a suitable vessel. One day, he would wake up again.

Li Hao also felt the same information. In the collision of souls, it was all clear. Li Hao could not allow this power to control his body.

All he could do was concentrate all his power and die together!

Every step was like bearing the suppression of countless souls. The wronged souls wanted to extinguish the golden light, and Li Hao walked towards the crystal tower step by step. There was no turning back, and he couldn't turn back.

Every step closer to the crystal tower, the pressure from the countless wronged souls increased. A normal living being would collapse instantly, but Li Hao didn't. He didn't know how many times he had crossed space. His soul had adapted to the pressure during constant wandering. There would only be destruction, no collapse.

The crystal tower seemed to sense the threat and wanted to influence Li Hao with various distracting thoughts, but it was useless. Li Hao's belief had never wavered. Everything he did, his life, was to guard what he wanted to guard in his heart.

Nothing else mattered!

Facing the huge soul crystal tower, Li Hao concentrated his mind and gathered his energy. All the power was concentrated together. The golden cells stopped devouring each other, sensed the threat, and gathered together to release power.

Let's end it!

Li Hao punched out with all his strength, directly hitting the crystal tower. Romero clenched his fists tightly, watching intently, the decisive blow of fate. Li Hao… punched in, breaking through the layers of resistance of countless blue wronged souls, and directly hit the crystal tower.

…

???

In an instant, something happened that made Romero feel cold from head to toe. The countless souls and the huge figure hovering on the soul crystal tower turned from attack to absorption in an instant, all surging towards Li Hao. And Li Hao couldn't react at all. In an instant, his whole body turned blue. Romero gritted his teeth, roared, and rushed up like a madman, trying to pull Li Hao out. After rushing out more than ten meters, he crashed into a wall, and an even more terrifying force directly blew him away. Liquid kept seeping from his seven orifices, and his body couldn't move. And the power of the soul crystal tower roared, as if it had found an outlet for ten thousand years, and poured into Li Hao's body frantically.

The most terrible thing happened. Romero was the only one besides Li Hao and Nangong Yuhang who knew the truth. He felt that from the beginning, Theseus had chosen two people, one was Li Hao, and the other was Nangong Yuhang. Even, Li Hao was Theseus's real target. It was a typical gu breeding, only the last survivor was the target. And Li Hao really did it, becoming the vessel that Theseus needed. This was definitely the strongest human. If Theseus really wanted to choose one, it would definitely be Li Hao. At this moment, Romero felt despair. Once Theseus "revived"...

The vast, unfathomable power only poured in at first. Before long, Li Hao's body formed a huge vortex, like a black hole, began to absorb frantically. And the energy of the blue soul crystal tower was being consumed at a geometric rate, directly being drained clean.

Romero stood there blankly, looking at the soul crystal tower that had turned milky white, and then looking at Li Hao on the ground...

Li Hao... moved a little. In an instant, Romero felt a chill, and his hands and feet were numb. He felt a higher being looking at him, this lower being.

This was not a higher or lower level in the sense of civilization, but a biological level.

Slowly, "Li Hao's" body swayed, and all the soul energy disappeared. Li Hao slowly sat up, looking at his hands, and then looking around... looking at Romero blankly.

That face revealed a smile.

Romero trembled all over, unable to move or not move. It was over... everything was over.

"Lower being, kneel down and offer your loyalty to your god!" "Li Hao's" voice was like a great bell, filled with majesty.

Romero laughed and spat, fuck you. Although he remembered Li Hao's instructions, he couldn't do it. He was a warrior, and the best end was to die in battle!

Romero roared and stretched out bone spurs from his arms, killing towards "Li Hao", "Go to hell!~!

At this time, Li Hao on the ground was startled, jumped up immediately, and quickly dodged, "Hey, don't fight, don't fight, we're on the same side, Romero, it's me, it's me, Li Hao, just kidding..."

Romero stopped, looking at Li Hao warily, "You, Li Hao?"

"As genuine as it gets, it's me, not Theseus, really, really!"

"Then let me ask you, when did we first meet?" Romero asked.

"Apocalypse, you scolded me the first time we met." Li Hao said quickly.

"That's not right, even if you invaded Li Hao's soul, you would have his memories," Romero frowned, "Tell me, what is Li Hao's biggest shortcoming, the one that those of us who are familiar with him think it is!"

Li Hao shrugged helplessly, "Stingy, actually that's your misunderstanding of me, I'm actually..."

Romero had already picked up Li Hao and patted Li Hao's back hard, "It's good to be stingy, it's good to be stingy!"

Li Hao was speechless. What kind of people were these? How could he be called stingy? That was clearly being frugal. Besides, he wasn't that familiar with Romero.

"Haha, what's the situation, does it feel like Theseus has become your tonic?" Romero looked at Li Hao. The powerful but very deficient feeling just now was gone. Li Hao was full of vitality.

"I don't know, I haven't come back to my senses yet. Damn it, could it just be temporary," Li Hao said. Romero was stunned, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Don't, don't, just kidding, it should be fine." Li Hao said, "But we should leave quickly, this place is going to be over."

The entire Nemean Royal City was collapsing. This great civilization that once ruled the earth finally collapsed after tens of thousands of years of lingering. Li Hao knew that no one could escape Blee's control...
