The youth stood clad in black battle armor, positioned above the colossal head of a lion.
Beneath the sun's glow, the youth's raven-black hair shimmered with an unusual luster, his handsome face sculpted as if from white jade.
At first glance, he was so ethereally beautiful, he seemed not of this world.
The only imperfection was that the youth's eyes were closed,
Leaving one to wonder what kind of brilliant eyes such a handsome, unearthly youth possessed.
The survivors, drawn by an inexplicable, majestic voice, had completely forgotten their earlier apprehension within the safe zone.
They couldn't even hold onto the shock they felt moments ago upon seeing the Beast King slain and its head tossed before them.
All gazes and thoughts were now occupied by the youth before them.
They felt an overwhelming urge to draw near to this youth, as if he were the entirety of the world.
"Sigh..."
A sigh echoed through the gathering, and the youth slowly opened his eyes.
Strangely, the survivors approaching from all directions, at that very instant, seemed to see the youth's eyes.
No!
In that moment, everyone was seen by Chen Luo.
The demonic patterns within his True Sight spun slowly, filled with the colors of a galaxy. Chen Luo looked at the entranced crowd with a hint of helplessness.
The next moment, a white light, originating from Chen Luo, swept outwards in an instant.
"Sixth Law! All Purity!"
As the white light passed, the infatuation in people's eyes and the grime on their bodies gradually dissipated.
The disheveled survivors, their bodies unkempt for over a month, were cleansed anew.
Their spirits, naturally ensnared by Chen Luo's life force, were also instantly purified.
The survivors, their eyes returning to normal, felt their bodies refreshed and looked at the youth in the center with astonishment.
"He's the one who killed the Beast King? What was that light just now? My body suddenly feels so light."
"What happened to me just now? My mind couldn't think at all, I just desperately wanted to get closer to that youth!"
"No! Look at the information on your panels! This youth is!!!"
*Clap, clap.*
Crisp claps of applause sounded from in front of everyone.
Chen Luo gazed at the attracted survivors, nodded, and said,
"I am Chen Luo, and I came in response to your distress signal."
"The Beast King that has plagued this place has been slain by me."
With that, Chen Luo stomped his foot, and a glaze-like flame suddenly ignited.
The lion's head, charred by heavenly lightning, instantly turned to ash.
Chen Luo stepped onto a staircase formed by the glaze-like flames, descending step by step.
His battle boots landed on the seemingly solid steps of glaze-like fire, and it felt as if they were stepping into everyone's hearts.
The terror of the Beast King was something everyone present understood well.
The undead were a nightmare that the survivors within the city could hardly resist.
Hundreds of safe zones within the city had been destroyed by the undead invasion.
Within these last few safe zones, many were merely refugees who had survived repeated undead assaults.
Yet, the undead that had once rampaged through the city, when they gathered all their strength,
Still could not withstand the silver flames spewed from the Beast King's mouth.
The charging undead legions were utterly reduced to ashes by the burning silver fire.
After that, the humans who should have been slaughtered by the undead became livestock penned by the Beast King.
But this terrifying Beast King, less than a minute after its roar, was already headless.
The power of this youth before them was already beyond their comprehension.
...
And after the name Chen Luo appeared, no one doubted the veracity of this power.
This name had appeared several times in world announcements at the beginning of the doomsday game,
But in the subsequent half-month, this name had not appeared again.
Faced with the daily survival crises, most humans had no time to remember a name that had vanished.
Until a month ago,
During the system settlement on the morning of the fifteenth day of the doomsday,
The name Chen Luo was forever etched into the hearts of everyone in the world.
Humanity's true strongest,
An abyss dweller whose depths were incomprehensible to the common person,
A supreme being suspected of suppressing the undead race,
The true driving force behind the world's ascension,
From that moment on, the name Chen Luo, in the hearts of all humans, became synonymous with the ultimate strength.
As Chen Luo's gaze flickered slightly, it lingered for a moment on a young man wearing glasses in the crowd, before he spoke again,
"The Beast King is gone. I have come to take you all with me to rebuild our homeland!"
*Boom!*
The clouds were violently torn apart by a colossal shadow,
A translucent, massive pyramid stretching for hundreds of kilometers, suddenly charged from the sky.
Yet, this terrifying momentum went unnoticed.
People simply stared blankly at Chen Luo.
Since the onset of the apocalypse, the word "home" had been so distant for everyone.
Having been killed, penned,
Fleeing for their lives, almost everyone present had witnessed loved ones perish before their eyes.
But Chen Luo's words carried tangible power,
And a thought flickered through people's minds,
Following the youth before them,
Perhaps, in this doomsday, a new home for humanity could truly be built once more.
