Chapter 1655: Chapter 697: Doomsday in the Apocalypse

Assist you in saving all of humanity?

Wang Tao looked at the bishop as if he were a fool.

If the bishop were at the Seventh Level, his words might have one or two parts credibility, but he’s only at Level 6.

The gap between Level 6 and the Seventh Level is like night and day. Even with Wang Tao’s strength at the Seventh Level, he wouldn’t dare claim to save the world, so how can he?

After all, there are already many Seventh Order Creatures outside, and without reaching the Seventh Level, you don’t even qualify to fight.

However, Wang Tao was quite curious about the bishop’s talk of “the power to destroy everything.” If the bishop was just boasting, it’s whatever, but if he really had some means, Wang Tao wanted to see them.

“What is this ‘power to destroy everything’ you’re talking about?”

Wang Tao asked directly.

“You don’t believe me?” The bishop clearly sensed Wang Tao’s skepticism and furrowed his brow.

“I believe you!”

Wang Tao nodded without hesitation.

“…Do you think I look like a fool? Since you don’t believe me, naturally I can’t tell you everything either.” The bishop shook his head in some disappointment, then looked at Wang Tao again and said, “I don’t have much time left. If you change your mind, you can come find me anytime.”

“Why do you have to ask for my assistance?”

Wang Tao was somewhat curious.

Could it be that this bishop can see through to his strength?

“Because you are at Level 6. Currently, besides you, I haven’t seen another Level 6 human. Having someone at Level 6 makes my plan more likely to succeed.”

The bishop explained directly without hiding.

“…”

It’s quite normal for the bishop to underestimate his own strength, but it’s surprising he hasn’t seen other Level 6 humans… It goes to show that this place is really remote, with very few survivors.

Wang Tao shrugged and said:

“But if you don’t tell me exactly how to achieve this, how can I trust you? You want me to trust you; you’ve got to give me a reason, right?”

“…Makes sense.”

The bishop furrowed his brow again, seeming a bit troubled. But eventually, he decided to reveal a bit to Wang Tao:

“There is a type of creature that is incredibly powerful, capable of destroying everything. That is the kind of power I’m talking about! If we can harness its power, we can break the current spiral of death and gain rebirth!”

“…Incredibly powerful creature, capable of destroying everything?”

Wang Tao furrowed his brow.

Could the bishop be referring to the Seventh Rank Destruction Level Creature? His description of “powerful” and “capable of destroying everything” fits those destruction-level magma monsters perfectly.

The problem is, it’s true destruction-level monsters can destroy everything, but how can they also grant rebirth to humanity? Humans are turned to ash by them; how is rebirth even possible? Reincarnation?

“I think I’ve seen the kind of powerful creature you mentioned, capable of destroying everything, but I don’t think it can grant us rebirth.”

Wang Tao said directly.

“Impossible, you couldn’t have seen it.”

Upon hearing Wang Tao’s words, the bishop shook his head vehemently without a second thought.

Wang Tao was surprised, how could this bishop be so certain he hadn’t seen it? So he said:

“Why is it impossible? The world is so big, anything could happen. I’ve seen plenty of creatures. You may have stayed here for too long and aren’t aware of how strong the creatures outside truly are…”

Wang Tao felt there was nothing wrong with his words, but the bishop continued to shake his head.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible! If you’d seen it, you wouldn’t be standing in front of me now!”

“Oh?” Hearing this, Wang Tao raised an eyebrow.

The bishop’s words meant that seeing such a creature would result in immediate death? Isn’t that still a destruction-level monster! Back then, if it weren’t for the Shadow Protection, he would have been killed instantly…

However, it’s normal for the bishop not to believe him. After all, those destruction monsters are indeed terrifying, and even now Wang Tao can’t defeat them.

Just as Wang Tao was about to describe those destruction-level magma monsters to the bishop, the bishop suddenly said:

“And at this current time, it cannot appear! Therefore, you couldn’t have seen it.”

Cannot appear?

Wang Tao shook his head; the destruction-level magma monsters have long appeared. It seems the bishop must have somehow gotten word about the destruction-level monster, but he hasn’t seen it himself. Makes sense; if Wang Tao could be instantly slain by them, the bishop wouldn’t stand a chance either.

“Then why don’t you describe its appearance?”

Wang Tao asked again.

But to Wang Tao’s surprise, the bishop shook his head: “I don’t know; I’ve never seen it.”

“…”

The bishop admitted directly that he hadn’t seen it, leaving Wang Tao somewhat flustered.

“You say at this current time, it won’t appear. Then tell me, when will it appear?”

At this time, Wang Tao had already lost interest in the bishop. The bishop’s plans for saving all humanity, Wang Tao begrudgingly disregarded as mere boastful talk.

But after chatting for this long, it wouldn’t hurt to hear what the bishop had to say.

Yet what the bishop said next left Wang Tao with a peculiar expression.

“When the first Seventh Level human appears in the world, it will appear! That’s why I say my time is running out. I feel I’m just a step away from Ascension to the Seventh Level! If I’m not prepared before Ascension, I may miss this opportunity! I only have this one chance; I must seize it!”

The bishop’s face was serious, his gaze firm, as if he wouldn’t stop until he reached his goal.

Seeing the serious bishop, Wang Tao suddenly laughed.

“Seventh Level, is this what you mean?”
