Chapter 1964: They Are Called 【Night Watch】
Jialan's lips pressed together tightly. She grabbed Lin Qiye's palm, and a faint glow instantly flowed from her palm into his body.
Lin Qiye's expression was complicated. He looked into Jialan's eyes and said slowly:
"My life force has withered... Even if you transfer your 【Immortality】 to me to extend my life, once the effect of the 【Star Coins】 fades, my life force will still dissipate... Save your power for the battlefield. Without Qingyu, Zhai Ge, and Jiang Er, we can't hold off millions of Black Goat young."
"But... but what about you?" Jialan asked anxiously. "I don't want to watch you die..."
"I won't die."
Lin Qiye raised his palm and gently touched her hair. "This might be the last time 【Night Watch】 appears before the world... At least give our former selves a perfect ending, okay?"
Jialan stared into Lin Qiye's eyes. After hesitating for a long time, she finally loosened her grip on his palm...
"Will we meet again?" Jialan wiped the tears from her eyes. Her red-rimmed eyes looked seriously at Lin Qiye. "Not meeting again in memories... but truly meeting again, in reality."
Lin Qiye was silent for a long while, then hummed in agreement.
"We will."
Jialan glanced at the surging Black Goat young in the distance. A resolute look flashed in her eyes. She turned back, stood on tiptoes, and gently kissed Lin Qiye's lips.
"Then I'm leaving... You better keep your promise!"
She cast one last deep glance at Lin Qiye, then her figure swiftly crossed the shattered earth, like an arrow that charged into the black tide without hesitation!
The next moment, a visible shockwave erupted from within the tide. A massive number of Black Goat young were blasted to pieces by a single punch, instantly clearing an open space in the surging black tide!
A crimson-cloaked figure darted nimbly through, cutting path after path through the enemy ranks.
Member of 【Night Watch】 Squad, Immortal Fairy, Jialan!
Baili Pangpang fought seventeen Divine Corpses in solo combat, Cao Yuan battled two Cthulhu Faction gods alone, while An Qingyu, Jialan, Shen Qingzhu, and Jiang Er stood firm in the vast black tide, forcibly holding back the surging million Black Goat young on this single battle line!
Six crimson cloaks fluttered across the battlefield. Everyone's gaze was completely drawn to this sight. They watched in shock, yet also filled with confusion.
【Six crimson cloaks? What's going on?】
【Right, didn't the Night Watch say only two people can wear the Crimson Cloak?】
【Do you all remember, the Night Watch previously said that cloaks other than crimson are markers for special squads? Could it be that Commander Lin's Crimson Cloak actually represents a special squad too?】
【Was Commander Lin also a member of a special squad along with Mr. Shen? What happened to the other squad members? Why are there only two cloaks left in the Night Watch now?】
【What's this special squad called?】
【Night Watch... They are called Night Watch】
【Above post: Is that for real? An internal member of the Night Watch???】
【Night Watch... That's a nice name. By the way, ever since these people appeared, the sky turned to night】
【Why did the other squad members suddenly reappear? Where did they come from?】
【They're so strong... Every single one of them is incredibly powerful! Six people held back an entire army, especially the one stepping on a black hole, and that massive figure shrouded in black flames—feeling not much weaker than Commander Lin...】
【Speaking of which, where's Commander Lin? Where did Commander Lin go?】
【...】
While everyone was excitedly discussing those six cloaks, some people had already started searching for Commander Lin... Since they were originally all members of the same squad, why wasn't Commander Lin appearing?
Among the countless curtain fragments scattered across the sky, that aged figure who had been silently watching the battle finally moved.
He stepped forward, and his form instantly vanished from everyone's sight.
Before anyone could see where he went, within the black tide, a brilliant transformation magic radiance bloomed.紧接着，一个手握直刀，黑发红衣的青年冲天而起！
A young man gripping a Straight Blade, with black hair and crimson robes, rose into the sky!
Six pristine white wings spread open behind him. The elderly Lin Qiye had vanished, replaced by a young and majestic Lin Qiye!
When those six white wings unfurled, everyone watching the screen immediately cheered!
Commander Lin wasn't dead after all!!
And he was almost unharmed! He had been hiding within the depths of the Cthulhu Faction army this whole time, waiting until now to deliver the fatal strike!
True to Commander Lin's reputation—previously he held back the Cthulhu Faction army alone, and now he remains unscathed. If this isn't being invincible, then what is?
Torrents of belief power poured into Lin Qiye's body from the void. Endless divine might surged forth. Several golden blade lights swept horizontally, directly carving several ferocious gaps in the Cthulhu Faction army. Tens of thousands of Black Goat young were annihilated without a trace.
Within the black tide, Jialan, who was also fighting desperately, saw this scene. A pained look flickered in her eyes...
She naturally knew that Lin Qiye's current appearance was entirely an illusion created by the transformation magic... Beneath that magic's radiance lay still an elderly, dying form. The powerful combat strength bursting from that shattered body was already a last desperate surge.
Even so, Lin Qiye still held his hunched chest high and straight. Blade light from his hand疯狂宣泄而出，宛若黑色浪潮中的一尊无敌战神！
Lin Qiye的嘴角轻轻上扬，虽然身躯支离破碎，心中却前所未有的畅快。
这是失而复得，梦想成真；是深红舞台上独属于他们的最后绚烂！
Lin Qiye——夜幕小队队长，大夏守夜人第七任总司令。
混沌的脸色阴沉如水。祂掀开帘帷本欲摧毁Lin Qiye这根支柱，却不料一根支柱化作七根。预期的恐慌未至，信念反而更加坚定。祂的举动非但未成为压垮大夏的最后一击，反而成全了Lin Qiye。
祂死死盯着在黑色浪潮中厮杀的Lin Qiye，胸膛剧烈起伏，眼眸中怒火重燃。
"一群跳梁小丑……" 混沌冷哼一声，祂那黢黑的手掌骤然抬起，向那七道身影按去。 fierce as a war god in the black tide! Even facing his final moments, he had to bear Great Xia's sky on his shoulders, maintaining the Commander's image in everyone's hearts—that was their last hope. Seven crimson figures fought side by side through endless waves, and Lin Qiye glanced at the companions around him, his cracked lips curving upward slightly. Though his body was about to fall apart, his heart had never felt more at peace.
This was finding what was lost, a dream realized—crimson flames burning bright in their final, brilliant moment on stage. Lin Qiye, leader of the Night Watch Squad, seventh Supreme Commander of Great Xia's Night Watch. 【Chaos】 watched with fury building as the Cthulhu Faction forces remained pinned by those seven figures. The veil's purpose had been to let those pitiful insects witness Lin Qiye's collapse, yet instead of fear, faith only grew stronger. Rather than breaking Great Xia, 【Chaos】 had inadvertently elevated Lin Qiye to greater heights. Gazing at the battle unfolding, chest heaving with renewed rage, Lin Qiye continued pressing forward. "A bunch of clowns..." 【Chaos】 coldly snorted, raising that obsidian hand to crush the seven figures beneath it.
