"Have you discovered something?" Agu An smiled, his expression unreadable.
Garen did not respond.
In truth, the moment Agu An appeared, Garen had sensed that he might not be a physical being. This intuition was unfounded; if Garen had not reached Legendary Apex, he might not have been able to perceive the signs. Yet even so, Garen remained uncertain. It was only just now that he noticed the increasing white in Agu An's hair.
Garen gradually realized that this was not ordinary white hair; more accurately, it was a spreading aura of death.
In simple terms, Agu Anan the Great's vitality was waning.
"My time is running out... I have spent too long in a stalemate with Eternity, but each time I merely addressed the problems it caused without ever taking the initiative."
Garen paused at these words, then felt a sense of acceptance wash over him. The life of any being is finite, even that of Agu Anan the Great. The fact that he had survived through the entire New Era was itself a miracle.
"Five years ago, I made thorough preparations and went there," Agu An said, gazing into the distance. "But I lost... The spread of Eternity exceeded my imagination, and to this day my physical body remains trapped there."
Garen fell silent for a moment. "So you..."
"I am merely a shadow."
Garen did not speak further; the mysteries in his heart had finally unraveled. Yes, the essence of this Cataclysm was indeed the upheaval of five years ago when Agu Anan the Great's physical form was imprisoned in the realm of Eternity. No one in this world could stop Eternity's advance... thus disaster had arrived.
But this could not be blamed on Agu An. As he said, his life was nearing its end; if he were to truly die of old age, then Cataclysm would inevitably descend as well.
He was simply...
The struggle before death had failed.
Moths Flying to the Flame was indeed heroic, but it also carried too much helplessness and regret.
Garen looked at the other person and said, "So you want me to inherit your will?"
"Yes, in this world and beyond, you are the most suitable candidate," Agu An nodded without hesitation. "Your sense of justice, your bravery, your yearning for life is the strongest I've ever seen."
With the current situation unfolding, Eternity's unknown plans were in motion, and it was foreseeable that Cataclysm was approaching.
Having Garen inherit the Emperor's will to take over Agu An's responsibilities might not be the best solution, but it was the only way Unique could block Eternity for now.
Garen calmly replied, "I refuse."
"Why?" Agu An was taken aback by Garen's rejection, momentarily stunned.
He had returned here using shadows because he was certain that Garen would not shirk this mission. Despite the warrior becoming lonely and despondent after weathering storms, there was no denying that the flame within him still burned brightly.
Agu An believed he would never misjudge a person, so he felt even more confused at this moment.
"This world needs a transformation."
Garen took a deep breath and clearly stated, "Not just a cycle of doing the same thing."
Agu An frowned and said, "Your perspective is good; I agree. But the current problem is how we escape from Eternity's Torrent. It's no longer about how to eradicate it... no one can do that."
Garen replied expressionlessly, "Constant delay and destruction are no different."
"The question is, what can you do?" Agu An pressed his fingers against his forehead. "If you're referring to those warriors in the wilderness... at first, I might have had hope for them, but the moment they turned to stone, that hope shattered."
"Perhaps..."
Garen remained noncommittal as he stood up and walked down the mountainside.
Agu An lingered at the summit, watching Garen's retreating figure and feeling a sense of loneliness emanating from him, which only deepened his confusion.
He found it hard to believe that Garen would refuse him at this moment. After all, this was no time for jokes; every second of delay could bring immense danger to the world. As he had just said, the issue was no longer about how to eradicate Eternity, for that was something no one could accomplish.
The urgent matter now was how the world could survive under the Eternal Cataclysm.
After seven days had passed, Dead Man's Gorge had nearly vanished. Bodies and remnants had been swept into the clouds, and the landscape lay shattered beyond recognition, with only a small portion remaining that revealed the land's original form. Suddenly, it was a chasm.
Garen stood at the edge of the cliff, gazing into the darkness at the bottom of the abyss. Deep down, he knew that this was where Agu An had just mentioned—the Ahn'Qiraj wilderness—where hundreds of comrades lay in eternal slumber.
Javon, Zhao Xin, Shyvana, Poppy, Vayne, Brandwein, Fiona... and the heroes of the League of Legends formed by various alliances from Valoran.
If he had agreed to Agu An just now, it would have meant abandoning his own life. He would lose his freedom and personal pursuits, dedicating his entire existence to opposing Eternity, just like Agu An.
And those Super Warriors in the abyss would be left behind forever in eternal sleep.
This was something Garen could not accept.
Yet the arrival of Cataclysm and the destruction of the world were equally unacceptable to him.
When all options in a dilemma lead to no solution, then the significance of that dilemma ceases to exist; it only matters how you choose.
How to Choose.
This was not the first time Garen faced a question of fate.
But it was the first time he encountered a situation where any choice would lead to destruction.
Suddenly!
The last fragment was swept away, and the dark clouds dissipated in an instant! Sunlight poured down through the gaps in the white clouds, bathing Garen in a comforting glow.
Boom!
The blood within Garen surged.
Boom! His Golden Fighting Qi roared in response.
Boom! The Emerald Battle Aura erupted alongside it.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bervant's Power, Seidonton's Power, Rune Power, Sinful Power... all these forces reached their peak at this moment, like a sharp arrow shooting toward the sky!
At the same time, great turmoil erupted across the Godeyas Continent.
In front of the human royal palace stood Philip the Great, Black Dragon King Rednor of the Fallen Dragon Clan, elders from various tribes of the Summit of Ten Thousand Mountains, prophets from the Dark Court and Holy Court Elves...
All the world-class powerhouses, or those who were just a step away from being world-class Legendary Apex warriors, turned their gazes toward the east.
Yes, another Legendary Apex had been born!
Unlike ordinary legends, in a certain sense, the Legendary Apex is equivalent to a world-class powerhouse. The gap between the two does not stem from the aspect of strength, but rather from their understanding of Essence and the world.
At this moment, everyone felt that the "newcomer" from the East was anything but simple. He had not demonstrated any knowledge of the laws of Essence, yet his power was already infinitely close to that of a world-class strongman.
Many powerful individuals were lost in thought; some hoped that this newcomer was not from the enemy camp, while others revealed a fighting spirit, eager to test their mettle. Even the queen of the Dark Court Elves showed a flirtatious glint in her eyes...
But in the next moment,
everyone's expressions changed!
Shock...
Shock! Shock! Still shock! It was as if they had witnessed the most incredible event!
In the sky above the East, a Crystal Greatblade coalesced!
Immediately after... the aura of the Legendary Apex suddenly diminished by half. Just as it had reached its peak, it plummeted down.
It was as if it had fallen...
