Rocot: Reborn

The black smoke had not yet dissipated. Under the city wall in the dark night, two resolute figures stood in the wind. Tian Leirou's eyes were firm, and Luo Kede's eyes were deep. And between them, there was a long silence between them...

Xavier's steps suddenly froze at the moment he was about to walk out. His pupils shrank to the thinnest line under the reflection of the fire. He looked at the outline of the pylorus, as if the breath of the abyss suddenly sounded above this world. His heartbeat accelerated, and this feeling was more suffocating than going to the darkest corner of the world.

Savile looked up at the city wall, and the positions of Rokod and Tian Leirou were very clear - this was a fierce duel between father and daughter, and neither of them would give up easily. But he knew that he could not just be a bystander.

"Lord Rocot, why don't you use Situna?" Xavier finally spoke, his voice cutting through the cold wind of the night sky, hoping to shake the determination of the former hero.

Rokod turned his head and looked at Savile, whispering: "Situna is too powerful. Once used, all creatures on this land will... You don't want to see that scene, young man."

Savile nodded. Although he understood, he still felt confused: "But, there has to be a conclusion, right?"

At this time, Tian Leirou's voice cut in again, "Enough! This is none of your business, Xavier. This is our fight, don't interfere."

The flame of her wand danced, and she roared like a wild beast, ready to attack again. However, at this critical moment, a strange silence suddenly enveloped the battlefield. Everyone's movements seemed to freeze.

A deep voice suddenly sounded, "You all forgot that the real protagonists of this scene are not you."

This voice did not belong to anyone on the field.

A figure emerged from the darkness, with steady steps, wearing a dark purple robe, looking at the city wall, like an ordinary traveler who came to watch a good show. He was a peeper, an observer from the dark, summoned by fate.

"Who are you?!" A light of vigilance flashed in Tian Leirou's eyes, and the firelight reflected the fighting spirit in her eyes.

The man smiled gently, "I am the traveler of destiny. I come from a world that you cannot see." The scepter in his hand slowly rose up, and the top emitted a light that was difficult to look directly at.

Luo Kede and Tian Leirou looked at each other, the former frowned, and the latter's eyes became more excited. The scepter passed through the air, leaving a dazzling crack.

"Stop it, everyone. Let's start the real game." The man's tone was full of confidence that he was determined to win.

During this unexpected episode, there was a sudden commotion in the open area under the city wall. Everyone looked at the ground in disbelief, as if a long-hidden secret was about to be revealed.

The fluctuations in the air became more and more violent, the ground began to crack, and an unprecedented force rushed into the sky, attracting everyone's attention.

The moment the ground cracked, they saw a dark tunnel deep underground. The dark clouds above were drifting, and the moonlight was sometimes visible. The gem inlaid on the top of the scepter emitted a dazzling luster whenever the moonlight illuminated it.

"This is..." Xavier frowned and looked at Rocot.

Roccod looked at the passage, his eyes calm but bottomless. "This is a gift from fate. Perhaps it is a relic of rebirth, or perhaps it is the beginning of destruction."

"Why do you always speak with mysterious meanings, Lord Rocot? Can you explain it more clearly?" Xavier felt his scalp tingling. Although he knew that Rocot had many secrets that he didn't know, every time he faced his unfathomable eyes, he felt a fear deep in his bones.

"The human heart is always contradictory, Savile. Being able to predict future actions can certainly avoid many difficulties, but it makes all surprises meaningless. Are you willing to lose your courage and the joy of adventure?" Rocot looked at Savile with a smile, his tone indifferent.

As they talked, dark clouds in the sky began to roll, lightning flashed, and a cold light pierced through the darkness and rushed into the cracked ground.

"It seems that whether we like it or not, a new journey has to begin..." Xavier gripped the hilt tightly and straightened his back.

At this moment, a dull thunder roared from the depths of the passage, and the shock wave was thrilling. Then, a huge shadow exploded from the passage, with flames of resentment burning in its dim eyes, and its sharp claws drew an arc in the air.

"Lord Rocot, it seems we have no choice!" Savile gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with determination. He knew that the next competition would be much more difficult than he had imagined.

Rokod looked at Tian Leirou on the city wall, a smile appeared on his haggard face, "This is our game, but who will come to see it end?"

The shaking in the city became more and more intense, and the white moonlight began to dim. When everything was so turbulent, only Rocot and his friends were quietly waiting for this gamble about fate.

The heavy city gates slowly closed under the gaze of Rocot and the others. The flames on the city walls flickered, as if swallowing a silent wail. However, this once prosperous city was swept by shock and fear in just one night.

"Lord Roccod..." Tian Leirou's voice was filled with a hint of doubt, "What's going on?"

Rocot did not answer, but just stared at the ground in the darkness, his eyes full of confusion and bewilderment. He knew that this earthquake was not caused by nature, but someone had used the power of chaos to shake the entire city.

"The city is being shaken by some force..." Roccod's voice was low, but enough to cover the surrounding noise.

At the end of their sight, a huge black shadow slowly emerged. It was as black as ink, and surrounded by a strange halo, like a black hole that could swallow everything.

"That is..." Xavier's voice was trembling, but his eyes were firm. He gripped the hilt tightly, concentrating all his strength on the tip of the sword. "No matter what it is, I will protect this city!"

Rocot did not answer. His face became unusually heavy in the dim light, and his eyes showed a deep fear. "Is this... fate? Or despair?"

Suddenly, the silent air suddenly cut open, and a black crack opened from the ground to the sky, and the threat full of terrifying power enveloped the entire city. The flames continued to spread in the air, and each line of fire was like a crack, and the ignited heat brought unprecedented terror to the city.
