Squeak—
From the Rain Curtain ahead came the excruciating sound of steel bones grinding and bending, as if twisting the spines of those who listened.
The sports car had already retreated to the maximum distance, with the ceaseless Flowing Gold River just ten meters behind them. Just one more thin layer of Rain Curtain and the heavy burden of time would instantly crush their souls.
The most terrifying monster was time, omnipresent, relentless, chewing up all beings, devouring civilization.
In the Void Realm Map, only three colors remained: the green safety zone where Ash was, the "Dead End" red zone smeared by the Heroic Soul Army, and the golden zone of the Flowing Gold River.
Although they were promised time to love, the Empress' Soul didn't grant them enough space. With the Heroic Soul Army pressing in, Ash no longer had any room to maneuver.
Ten meters behind the Rain Curtain, the fierce and horrifying Heroic Soul Army, preparing for their supper, was poised to strike.
