Outside the carpet shop, countless Cairo jas are coming, the car is buzzing, and the colorful spots are flashing, and the worn car outer skin is wailing in the bumps and howling.

"Woooooo!"

The sound of flutes sounded again, and they were like a group of old hyenas, bursting out the last madness in their lives.

Cairo is old, and Cairo of this era is heading towards the end of a city's life, without an economy, no abundant resources, and no other source of income.

The weak country makes it extremely slow and poor in its development and almost exhausted.

However, the arrival of Charles and the other two made a new vitality for the city to settle in. No matter how dilapidated the equipment or how decadent the city is, many people live in a daze like zombies. When danger comes, there will still be the last part of people who muster up the courage to face it directly.

Dozens of prisoners have gathered here. They are wearing old-fashioned uniforms that look like the previous world, but they seem to be particularly suitable for the city. The dim color is accompanied by the wind and sand on the ground, making them almost integrated with Cairo.

These inspectors were holding big pagers and stared at the shabby store nervously. They put their hands on the pistol at their waists, looking alert.

The wind and sand whistled by, and the smoke and dust were rolling up on the ground. This carpet shop, which rarely comes and goes, became lively again due to three unexpected visitors... but it may not be the kind of lively the owner wants.

"Housein, are you here?"

"It's already in place, it's already in place."

More and more people gathered, but more and more people did not bring them a sense of security, but instead made them more nervous.

After all, except for the first wave that arrived and had direct confrontation with Charles and the other two, most of them only heard the situation on the scene through the communicator.

This obviously cannot make them truly understand what they are facing, nor can they face it with peace of mind.

And it is obvious that the chief or deputy chief behind him doesn't know what to do, otherwise they wouldn't just order these prisoners to gather outside and do nothing.

This remote and dilapidated shop was gradually surrounded by the inspectors who were still coming, holding old-style dilapidated pistols in their hands, with a nervous expression and without saying a word.

The atmosphere around became heavier, more tense, and even... almost still.

Still... No, it seems that time has really been slowed down at this moment, including the observation outside and the scorching sunlight from the sky.

The sun shines directly down the sky, and they fall at a speed that humans cannot capture, and come to the ground lightly and ethereally, penetrate the soil layer by about a few centimeters and then gradually dissipate.

Of course, there are also lucky lights that do not stop there. They luckily encountered the hole that Eric penetrated. The ground was not their end, but deeper underground.

Their long journey, calculated over light years, can continue for a distance of more than ten meters, gradually penetrate into the underground space, and finally... fall to a surface of a somewhat dirty gold soaked in soil.

This is where the apocalypse is buried.

And just as Eric and Charles were quarreling above, a steady stream of sunlight penetrated, falling one after another to the surface of the gold, they were cut off by the gold, dissipated, and then... merged into it.

A trace of golden smoke, like mist, rose on the surface of the gold, and from a distance it looked like gold was melting.

But this is not actually melting, but the consciousness converter that has been silent for many years has been reawakened, and the sunlight is converted into energy and begins to flow again inside it.

Rising, rising, the white smoke is getting more and more brighter.

The golden light emerged from the gold and gradually became richer, from the beginning to the dullest light, and now it was even more dazzling than gold, like a real golden light.

As Charles said, as long as enough sunlight is allowed to touch the apocalypse, he will be awakened, and after being awakened, he will naturally come out by himself. At this time, the apocalypse is in a state of awakening, but I don’t know when it will be...

Darkness, the sudden arrival of darkness suddenly broke all this again.

Although Charles and Eric above seemed to have been arguing for a long time, it was actually only half a minute. After the argument was fruitless, Charles decisively controlled Eric.

The cone gold fell again along the hole under the control of Eric. The moment it entered the hole, the entire hole dimmed again, because the light was cut off, so darkness occupied the place again.

But...it's only the second half.

Conical gold is like a bottle stopper, instantly cutting off the water-like light, and the entire hole is dug through the conical gold. As the conical gold returns to its original position, the entire light will naturally be re-blocked.

Even more.

After all, the soil will loosen, and the rolling soil will easily shrink the holes that have been dug.

The boundless darkness once again enveloped the pyramid that had been silent for thousands of years... As the light disappeared, the apocalypse seemed to have lost hope of recovery again.

But...the light has not completely disappeared.

Or, there is still a small section left.

The cone gold appeared very timely. As the light became more and more intense, the entire converter was obviously in a state of full activation, but I didn't know how long it would take to activate. In this state, the apocalypse could completely recover at any time in the next moment.

Then…conical gold appears at this time.

The light was cut off, but the light behind the conical gold could no longer shine. There was still a small section of light that entered the hole before the conical gold appeared, although it was only a few beams.

But even if there is only one ray of light, it is extremely important for a converter driven by sunlight as energy.

Under Eric's control, the cone gold finally stuck in the half of the hole, stabilizing and blocking all the remaining light.

But neither Eric nor Charles can see it, or all humans cannot see it, only creatures that can be captured by dynamic vision can see it... Even as the cone blocks the remaining light, there are still the last few rays of light that have entered before, falling vertically in the first half of the cone.

They are the last remaining light in the cone-shaped golden stage, falling on the surface of the gold like a moth to the flame, absorbed by it without rejection.

One strand after another, one stroke after another.

A golden luster emanates from the surface of the gold, and keeps jumping as the sunlight falls, becoming more and more prosperous, like the buds of the tree of life that is about to explode, but...

It ended abruptly.

All of this stagnated with the dissipation of the last ray of sunlight. The light leaped on the surface of the gold twice, and then stopped emitting. The golden, foggy luster gradually dissipated. The light dissipated, and the gold returned to darkness. The surroundings became calm and cold again... just like the past few thousand years...

Charles, who was controlling Eric above, waited quietly for a few seconds, then breathed a sigh of relief, and then he let go of his control over Eric directly.

After staggering for a moment, Eric stood back on his body, and he did not try to re-take the cone gold as it made no sense.

Even if it was done quietly, he could not hide it from Charles in front of him, because Charles did not observe with his eyes, but with his thinking.

Eric, who had regained control of his body, had a bad expression. In any case, even if he did not consider Charles's side that he emphasized that he would no longer invade others' psychological bottom line, the matter of controlling his mind without any scruples, simply being easily invaded by Charles' mind, which made Eric very uncomfortable.

His mental ability is really too powerful. He must find a way to fight against it, otherwise...

Eric suddenly stopped his thoughts because he was not sure if Charles was still looking at him.

In order to divert his attention, Eric listened for a few seconds and then shifted the topic.

"It seems you succeeded."

Eric's tone was faint.

"He didn't wake up."

"So, now you're going to talk about something."

Charles was a little helpless, and even shook his head in awe of disappointment.

"Eric!"

He spoke sternly. By controlling Eric before, he knew very clearly, or saw what was going on with Eric, he actually met the president of Destiny Card Company in private.

In a sense, they are the leader of their enemy, the leader of the aliens!

And what the enemy said... he actually believed it.

"It won't be a good end to work with them."

They are all adults, and Charles will not argue with Eric about cooperation or not. He is ready to explain his point of view from another perspective.

"But working with them will lead to a good end?"

Eric's point of view is obvious. He still maintains the theory of ordinary people's threat. Both of them use them, but obviously the referents are different. Charles is talking about the aliens, while Eric is talking about ordinary humans.

"Don't be naive, Charles, when we get rid of the enemy, they will turn around to deal with us in the next moment."

Eric's tone was disdainful.

“Eric…”

The two started arguing again.

But what the two people above didn't notice was that just as they were in a debate again, the gold converter below, which had been buried for no reason, suddenly had an abnormal movement again.

In the darkness, there is no abnormal movement under the light.

It was a foggy luster that suddenly appeared, floating on the surface of the gold converter.

In fact, it is inconspicuous. Compared with the light that emerged when it was constantly irrelevant under the sunlight, it still illuminated the entire darkness in an instant.

Because as the sun was cut off, the place had fallen into a cold darkness again, with no light, no temperature, and it seemed that there was only a dead silence.

So this sudden ray of light is like the hope that suddenly appears in the endless night. No matter how small it is, it is enough to make anyone notice it instantly.

What's more, as this ball of light emerged, more and more light began to condense on the surface of gold, and invisible energy began to flow again, as if the golden luster of liquid was dispelling the darkness again.

The next moment, a pair of pale and scarlet pupils suddenly opened in the darkness...

"Listen to me, Eric."

"Things have not reached that irreversible level. Our first consideration is to defeat the enemy, rather than to fight another battle next."

"Hmph...that's not something we don't want to fight if we don't want to fight."

"If you drag the apocalypse into the opposite side of humanity, then the conflict will inevitably explode completely..."

"boom!"

Above, Charles was still persuading Eric with great thought, but before he could finish his words, a violent vibration suddenly emerged from the feet of the two.

Moira, who had just gotten up and came to Charles, staggered, but fortunately, Charles pulled her and she did not fall again.
To be continued...
