Chapter 859-End - Elope to Arcana Land (The End) (1/2)

“Impossible, impossible! Activate self-destruct sequence! Activate self-destruct sequence!”

Saiki shouted in horror like a lunatic. The golden battle armor that he had been relying on refused to respond to his instruction. When the truth dawned on him, it brought him fear and confusion.

Meanwhile, the mechanical tentacles wrapped around Xiao Luo’s body were gradually loosening their grip.

“It seems like you still do not get it,” Xiao Luo said with a cynical smile.

“I do not get it?”

Saiki looked aghast. Then he shouted at Xiao Luo, “What is it I am not getting?”

“You are not the one controlling the system. The system is the one controlling you. It means you are just the system’s puppet. After you merged with the system, the system has become dominant,” the bleached Xiao Luo said.

Puppet?

The system became the dominant one?

It was as if a bomb just exploded in Saiki’s head. A humming sound was ringing in his head. He suddenly could not think properly and laughed hysterically. “You Xiao Clan garbage! What nonsense are you spouting? If I am a puppet, then would it not make you a puppet as well? You are a pot calling the kettle black. Are you not ashamed?”

“Sorry, but I am afraid I will have to disappoint you again.”

Xiao Luo sneered at him. The white armor covering his body shattered into countless fragments in an instant, revealing his original human form. His clothes were in tatters, but the powerful aura radiating from his body made it hard for one not to be in awe of him.

“You…”

Saiki opened his eyes wide and found it hard to believe that Xiao Luo could switch forms with such ease. Could it be that it was not the system’s consciousness, but his instead?

Xiao Luo smiled wryly and said, “I am essentially different from you. You wholly rely on the power of advanced technology. But I can achieve my current cultivation level because I rely on my strength and perseverance, strengthening myself one step at a time. The system was only an assistant from the start to the end. I guess it is the difference between the Ultimate Martial and the Ultimate Tech. The former focuses on improving one’s ability, and the latter relies more on advanced technology. Technological products are an external force. There are bound to be hidden dangers or repercussions if one relies on external forces all the time.”

Saiki’s body was trembling a little, for he felt that what Xiao Luo just said made sense. Whatever was happening to his body proved that the system they had created was the dominant force. If they continued to develop it, then it was highly possible that in the future, all the people from Ultimate Tech would become puppets. They would live with no freedom and be under the control of the system.

“The host is dying. Unbind, unbind now!”

Suddenly, the robotic system signal was beeping in Saiki’s head. It was trying to abandon him while he was down.

Saiki’s pupils shrank, his eyes filled with despair. In the next second, he gave a self-deprecating smile and said, “F*ck your mum!”

He was not scolding Xiao Luo, but the almighty combat system that the Ultimate Tech had invented.

The golden armor disappeared, eventually condensing into a golden dot that flew off into the universe.

Saiki, having lost his armor, was naked. Forget the fact that one could not survive in outer space without a spacesuit. With the bleeding hole in his chest that Xiao Luo created when he pulled out his heart, Saiki was going to die for sure.

“Ahhh!”

Saiki screamed bitterly. All the capillaries in his body burst, turning him into a bloody mess in an instant. His eyeballs were protruding. Blood was gushing out of his mouth, nose, and ears. He then stopped struggling and became a bloodied corpse in outer space.

“Without the system, you are nothing at all.”

Xiao Luo lifted his head slowly, then shot a crimson-black energy ball at Saiki.

BOOM!

Saiki was completely obliterated.

The battle had ended. Xiao Luo locked onto Earth’s Xiahai city and headed there at the speed of light.

…

Su Li was standing at the top of a dilapidated building in Xiahai with her beautiful face tilted upward to look into the sky. Her eyes were like crystal-clear water. Her skin was snow-white, and her long black hair flowed gently with the wind over the back of her long and slender body. Although she had been through a battle and her body covered with dust, it still could not hide her elegant and majestic aura.

Suddenly, a pair of hands stretched out from behind and hugged her around the waist.

It shocked Su Li and she immediately turned around. When she realized that the man behind her was Xiao Luo, it completely surprised her.

“Did I scare you?” Xiao Luo asked.

Su Li’s beautiful eyes turned teary and red. She shook her head and plunged into her husband’s embrace, hugging him tightly.

The Four Kings from the Holy Land of the Light Clan continued to look up into the sky. They wondered how the battle had gone and if Xiao Luo might have won. It was not until they saw their Holy Lord hugging a man did they eventually look away from the sky.

“F*ck, is that not Xiao Luo? When did he get down there?” asked the King of Thunder, blinking his eyes in disbelief.

“He completely avoided our detection. He seems to have become even stronger,” commented the King of War as he struggled to swallow his saliva.

King of Thunder scowled. “You big idiot, don’t you get to the point? The most important thing now is to find out who won. Is it the alien race, or is it Xiao Luo?”

“Can you not see him and our Holy Lord hugging? Is the result not obvious enough to you?”

The King of Blades gulped down mouthfuls of alcohol, then laughed happily. “That is great. Only a man like him is worthy of being with our Holy Lord. Haha, haha…”

King of Swords said nothing. After regaining some of his True Inner Force, he grabbed onto Curisa, who had lost an arm, and headed back to Arcana Land.

…

The news of the defeat of the alien race spread quickly all over the world and everyone celebrated the victory.

The rebuilding of their homes came right after. For the first time, humans united as one and worked hard to rebuild Earth. The Sky Eye of Hua Nation and the Hubble Telescope of America, which both survived the devastation, found a UFO near the sun. After comparing it with the spaceship that the alien race used to invade Earth, they confirmed the UFO was indeed Saiki’s spaceship.

With Earth’s prevailing level of science and technology, it was impossible to bring the spaceship back.

Xiao Luo took the initiative and brought the spaceship back to Earth. Behind Saiki was the formidable Ultimate Tech. With the Earth’s coordinates in the universe exposed, the only thing they could do was to prepare themselves and upgrade their technologies before the enemies came again. Without a doubt, Saiki’s spaceship could aid in advancing Earth’s level of technology.

In the Law of the Dark Forest, you could not always ensure that you were the hunter, but you had to make sure you were not the hunted!

…

A while after the battle, the sky was blue again, and white clouds floated in the sky. The warm sun was shining warmly on Earth.
