Chapter 488 Evaluation

The battle to recover Midnight City officially came to an end at the moment when Ledesma's heart burst.

His body was lying quietly on the ground, blood flowing from under him, spreading silently around him. The four powerful lights of the lamp were still focused on Ledesma's body, illuminating his last moment's expression. On that face, there was unwillingness, fear, anger and many other things.

If history can be preserved, then in this vast area, the name of Ledesma will be remembered and will be circulated among a few historians. For such a hero who has established the Blade of Destruction from scratch with more than a dozen partners, established the Midnight City that has both hell and heaven, and is only one step away from standing on the top of the king of the Great Lakes Western Regions, any history textbook involves this area, his position is indispensable.

As an engineer, Ledesma's greatest contribution to the times was to rebuild the water purification factory in Midnight City and based on this, it built the first and only indoor farm in the area. These two facilities combined together allowed hundreds of thousands of people to survive. Under the rule of the Blade of Destruction, people still need to struggle to survive, but at least they can survive by making efforts.

But Ledesma's luck was not good enough.

If it were in the old era, he might have had the opportunity to become a great man who was not inferior to the most famous presidents in federal history. However, unfortunately, he grew up in this era, a turbulent era that subverted all common sense.

The only reason for Ledesma's failure is that he is not capable enough and has not been able to find a strong enough partner or guard.

In turbulent times, strength is the only rule.

When Ledesma died, no one of his soldiers tried to stop them. Before Su Terror's ability, everyone understood that any stop was just a waste of his life.

Not only was there no one saving Ledesma, but there were many smart people who had long captured the boldly captured person and escorted him to Su.

This is a young man under thirty years old. He is a civilian in terms of clothing. His messy hair and a beard that has not been trimmed for a long time blocked most of his face, but his eyes with Latin blood have a light that is inconsistent with his down-and-out appearance. He also has a second-level power ability, and he can be regarded as a good player among civilians and even in the army, but it is far from the elite bodyguard of Ledesma. Moreover, he does not have weapons in his hand.

An officer handed the man's old-fashioned camera to Su in favor. Through the black LCD screen, Su could see the moment he held Ledesma's heart in the air. He had to admit that the timing of this photo was completely a stroke of magic.

After looking at the photos, Su looked at the man who was forced to kneel on the ground with great interest. He was looking back at Su, with a little fear in his eyes, but more excited.

"Your Excellency, do you want to smash it?" the officer asked.

"No." Su stopped the officer who was eager to flatter and asked the man: "Why take a picture?"

The man immediately straightened his chest and shouted: "This is a moment of history, and it is my responsibility to record it!"

"Is that true?" Su smiled, returned the camera to him, and said, "Then, save it well."

After saying that, Su walked towards the official residence of Ledesma.

The man held the camera in surprise and shouted to Su's back: "Hi! Is that the case? Don't you want to leave a few more photos? Hi, listen to me, let me take photos for you, you will be remembered by people hundreds of years later!"

When Su's figure disappeared completely in the gate of the Ledesma official residence, the officer kicked the man to the ground with a fierce kick and said with gritted teeth: "Photo? My *** photo! Make me look like a clown! Get out of here before Lord Su has changed his mind! Let me see you next time, I will break your bones!"

The officer kicked the man hard with heavy military boots, making him pale and he rolled and crawled away. The officer seemed to remember something and shouted at the back of the Latin man: "Boy, keep your camera!"

At this time, Su was already standing in the luxurious office of Ledesma, admiring the furniture, oil paintings and accessories inside. Medilly and Sylvanas stood in front of the window, holding everything that happened outside in their eyes.

Seeing the Latin man running away with his camera in his arms, Sylvanas couldn't help but snorted and said, "I'm another guy who wants to speculate! But he's really brave."

"Well, he has a lot of ideas and is willing to take risks," Medielli agreed, and added: "If his potential is not only third-level, I think he will get a chance."

Sylvanas's face showed disgust: "He is simply a shameless guy, even worse than the warriors outside! Is the master really planning to recruit those people? They are not trustworthy at all and may be betray at any time!"

Medilly looked at Sylvanas with a child's expression, and said with a faint smile: "Wait, why not? As long as Su's power is still there, these people will never dare to betray him. We started with the 'blood bullet' and rushed all the way here, just to let the fiercest group of people in Midnight City understand that our power is not something they can compete with. As for this city, as long as the people in this city can have food and survive, it will be the same if anyone rules."

Sylvanas disliked Medierli's eyes very much and argued: "But why do we have to rely on strength and terror to maintain rule? Can't people obey because of gratitude?"

"Because Su has no time, and people's desires are endless," said Medierli.

With the assistance of the former guard of Ledesma, the process of receiving Midnight City was very smooth. Ledesma's death made the senior officers of the army understand how pale and powerless the weapons they rely on were in front of Su, and wisely gave up the idea of ​​trying to fish in the water. Lola, who had the strongest individual combat power among the five-man committee, surrendered very simply after learning about Ledesma's death.

What surprised Su was that he actually met Victor. Victor stayed in the dark and humid water prison for a month and was still alive, which was a miracle. However, he also paid a heavy price. The torture of the harsh environment made his ability to reach the sixth level have now deteriorated to the third level. Even if he recovered in the future, it would be impossible to reach the original height. The other two members of the committee died in chaos as early as when Ledesma seized power. Victor was captured by Ledesma, but unexpectedly, Victor, who had always been with Ledesma, said that he would not cooperate with him, so he was thrown into the black prison. Ledesma looked forward to him being able to surrender, but what was waiting for was Su's return.

When Su asked why Victor refused to cooperate with Ledesma, his answer was that he firmly believed that Su would return. In that case, he would definitely die in cooperation with Ledesma. If he refused to cooperate, Ledesma might not kill him. Hearing Victor's answer, Su just smiled, and then let him rest with peace of mind, promising that Midnight City would be handed over to him to manage after Victor recovered.

It took a whole day to initially stabilize the situation of Midnight City. When the night fell again, the midnight city, which dragged away the body and washed away the blood, began to be noisy and prosperous again. In the midst of alcohol and confusion, people soon forgot the war during the day and devoted themselves to endless carnival as before.

In the office of Ledesma, Su stared at the gradually noisy Midnight City, suddenly sighed and said, "Stay here for two days at most, and we will go back to the Iron Gate."

"So fast?" asked Medielli in surprise.

Su nodded and said, "Well, you know, I'm going to be a father soon. But that little thing... If I'm not by my side, it's really unreliable. If I stay here for a longer time, I'm worried that something will happen to Li."

Behind Su's invisible situation, Medierli made a face, but his tone was serious: "We should go back soon."

Su who always monitored the surroundings with panoramic views certainly noticed Medierli's small movements, but he just regarded this as the naughty girl.

The night falls.

Under the same night, ice and snow can still be seen everywhere in the mountains in the northern part of the mainland. Three bonfires are burning at the foot of the snow peaks. On such a cold night, the beating flames cannot actually bring much warmth to the people next to you.

Oberen sat by the bonfire, flipping through the book of Revelation by the fire.

"It says, I exist in the past, the future, and I am in the present. I have died, and have been resurrected, so forever. It says, I hold the keys of many worlds to open the door to that world..." Oberen read softly, and the pleasant voice fluttered with the night wind, and his own power reconciled with the sound of the reading, rising and falling gently like a tide.

His voice was not loud, but this power-containing voice could be heard far away, not only Aaron, who was sitting next to the same fire, but also Persephine and Elena, who were a distance away.

This moment was quiet and quiet, as if the battle that had just ended had never happened.

The soft and beautiful verses seem to drive away the cold in the night, but the content of "Revelation" is unique. Every time I hear Oberen's verse, the people who listen to it always feel inexplicable, as if they touch the edge of a mysterious world. However, no one will interrupt Oberen's verse at this time, because his voice can give people real peace. He does pour all his mind into this seriously worn-out verse. On the other hand, this is also a way for Oberen to practice and gather strength. As pages of "Revelation" turn, his power grew slowly but firmly.
