Chapter 1428: Chapter 1428 – The New Legend (End)
A powerful and terrifying aura rose into the sky, causing the surrounding space to distort!
This was the terrifying power of Cthulhu, and this power originated from the fear of the unknown!
It looked so unstoppable, as if it was despair itself!
The gods outside the villa had already proved that even if they joined forces, they would not be a match for this power. With this power, ‘Zhang Heng’had regained control of his body. However, at the next moment.., the Fishbone bracelet hanging behind the door suddenly trembled.
Then, from somewhere far away, came a whale’s cry!
The Whale’s cry was drowned out by an indescribably terrifying aura. It seemed extremely small, but it did not disappear. It was like hope itself.
“Zhang Heng”‘s body was once again pinned to the ground, but this was not something that truly baffled him, what truly baffled him was that he realized that a part of the power in his body had actually flowed to an unknown place.
He could clearly feel that in that place, a brand-new but familiar soul was being born!
But How was this possible? !
The human soul that had appeared in this world by accident had been completely destroyed by him when he descended into this body, just like a glass that had been restored to its molecular state, logically speaking, it should not have been restored.
But now, this incredible thing had indeed happened to him.
Even though he had only taken over this body for a few months, “Zhang Heng”felt that he had already adapted and familiarized himself with this new body. However, at this moment, he realized that he had no idea where the new soul was located.
He wanted to make a move, but he was unable to do so. Therefore, he could only continue to release that unmatched power, trying to destroy the new soul directly through the pressure. However, as he continued to increase his power.., “Zhang Heng”was surprised to find that the power he had lost was also increasing.

In fact, the power he released was like nutrients, constantly supplying the new soul and helping it complete the whole process of breaking the shell.
After 132 days of destruction and darkness, Zhang Heng opened his eyes again.
However, this was not the world he was familiar with.
He realized that he was standing on a burning street, just like in the dream. Everything he saw was burning crazily, and the remaining humans were laughing maniacally, killing each other for fun, it was as if they were not in hell, but in heaven.
On the hill of corpses sat another him, like a ruler of the world, looking down at him from above. There was a rare look of mockery in his eyes, as if he was saying that it was too late.
Zhang Heng frowned. Did something go wrong with his previous plan? Did the little girl who was responsible for sending the USB to Han Lu fail to complete her mission, or did the god of fiction fail to place all the key items that triggered his rebirth in place, or did his novel not catch on as quickly as he had expected? Or did something go wrong in some other place that he had not thought of before.
Zhang Heng did not have time to think about it because he saw the remaining survivors, the half-human, half-fish-frog-like divers, and the smaller version of Cthulhu’s star minion swarming toward him, just as Zhang Heng was about to turn around to face the enemy, he realized that his body was frozen in place like he was in a dream.
Zhang Heng closed his eyes as if he had accepted his fate and the world’s fate.
However, he suddenly said, “It seems like you really can’t do anything to me. If it’s only an illusion of this degree, why don’t you just admit defeat?”
As he said this, the corpses and monsters around him had already disappeared.

Zhang Heng opened his eyes for the second time and realized that he had returned to the underwater palace. He stood face to face with the black shadow that was as large as a mountain and faced the terrifying aura.
At that moment, the world became extremely quiet. It was as if there was only one person and one monster left.
“I used to think that you grew up because of the fear of swallowing humans. It wasn’t until I saw you, no, our creator, that I realized what really made you,”Zhang Heng said as he looked straight at the monster in front of him.
The monster in front of him seemed to have not heard him. It dragged its huge body and walked toward him step by step. Its thick tentacles dragged on the ground and emitted a terrifying sound that reverberated above the palace.
However, Zhang Heng, who was in front of it, did not run away nor was he prepared to fight.
“The life of despair and loneliness is the most terrifying thing in this world. “However, don’t worry. Unlike the other people in this world who don’t understand you and only want to destroy you, I have no intention of killing you. Moreover, the life of despair and loneliness can not be killed, just like you can never kill me completely because Hope has always existed. So…”
Zhang Heng paused and continued, “Next, I’m afraid we’ll have to share this body and spend quite a bit of time together. Currently, you can use 24 hours for about 23 hours and 50 minutes, and I can use the remaining 10 minutes. Don’t look so sad. On the bright side, at least you won’t be as lonely as before.”
When the monster heard this, it stopped in its tracks.
Even though it remained silent, Zhang Heng seemed to know what it was going to say, “Are you trying to say that 10 minutes isn’t going to change anything? That You’re going to destroy the world while I can’t control my body? “Unfortunately, since you have my 10 minutes, your original plan can’t go on.
“In my next 10 minutes, I will take you to a new world. All the characters there are already in position, but the final boss position is still vacant because they can’t find a powerful character, and this final position is tailor-made for us.”
Zhang Heng seemed to have thought of something as he patted his head and added, “Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention, although on the surface our time allocation is 23 hours and 50 minutes versus 10 minutes, in reality, my day has 48 hours, so strictly speaking, our time ratio is 23 hours and 50 minutes versus 24 hours and 10 minutes.
“This is much fairer, and in this case, my day is 10 minutes longer than the average person’s. I don’t have a problem with that. Also, the flow of time in that world will also be slightly different from the real world. I hope you won’t be too surprised when we go in later.”
“Alright, that’s all I have to say. There are still a lot of things I need to do. I need to make sure that you can’t escape from that world. I need to help the other guy appease the old and New Gods that were tricked into that world. After that, I need to prepare for the game world to be opened again to welcome players. After all this is done, if there’s still time, I’d like to use the rest of my time to meet some old friends.”
After saying this, Zhang Heng closed his eyes again. “Next, let’s write a new legend together.”
