章節 183: A Tomorrow Without You

"You're...still here?" I couldn't help but murmur as I stared at Song Qian Long's weak body, lying on the ground. Mei Mo was nowhere to be seen, but...he was still here.

By this time, everyone else had also come back to their senses. The Midnight Syndicate members, having lost their main force - the monsters - attempted to retreat, and our own army confronted them. The other Golden Monarchs all stared at the scene in shock, clearly surprised by the fact that Song Qian Long's body was still somehow here...with the exception of Li Hai Tang, who appeared to be unconscious.

"This shouldn't be...possible..." Mayor Zhou murmured to himself. "When your core shatters, your body is the first to disappear..."

Then, suddenly, I heard a few faint words from none other than the man himself, lying on the ground weakly.

"I...conserved...a little bit...of my core...so that...I wouldn't...die...instantly..." he explained quietly.
