Chapter 1042
Author: Marina Vittori
That night, Dustin and Natasha sat by Haley's bedside in one of the wards of East Swinton Hospital. Their hearts ached for her as they watched her sleep.

She had just gone through an operation. All her injuries had been treated and bandaged. Dustin had even performed acupuncture on her to ensure that her blood circulation was fine.

Though she was no longer in danger, the shock of the accident was still traumatizing for a five-year-old child.

"Don't worry, Haley will be fine." Dustin held Natasha's hand to comfort her.

"Those beasts! They didn't even spare the child!" Natasha hissed through clenched teeth, furious.

"I will get to the bottom of this. I will not let whoever is behind this off!" Dustin was dead serious.

Whatever he did should not implicate those around him. They had crossed a line now that both Natasha and Haley were harmed.

    Inside a temporary camp in Reedcrest, thousands of civilians huddled together in cramped conditions. Many were wounded, and countless others showed signs of plague infection. When the zombie horde had attacked, there hadn't been time to deal with the outbreak. Saving lives had come first. Though the horde was eventually wiped out, the damage caused by the virus was far from over.However, the plague remained the biggest threat. With the crowd in chaos, it had spread like wildfire. Infections had climbed from hundreds to thousands, even under Grace's containment efforts. Without the medication keeping it under control, the outbreak would have been catastrophic.Even so, Reedcrest was doing remarkably well compared to the other three cities. Those three had already descended into chaos. Even without the threat of the zombie virus, it would take time to restore any kind of order.Dustin rode a trail of golden light back to the temporary camp. He saw Grace kneeling inside the tent,

    The gates of the Nether Crypt rumbled open, and a tall, white figure emerged through the widening gap.Dustin stood with his hands clasped behind his back. Golden radiance swirled around him, turning the night sky bright as day. The black mist seeping through the doorway instantly dissipated when it touched the glow."Trying to run?" His voice cracked like thunder through the passage. "When you massacred tens of thousands of innocent people, did you think this day would never come?"A vicious gleam flashed in Lucan’s eyes. He hurled the human skin upward and shouted, "Crimson Rite—unleash!"The strip of human skin expanded in midair, swelling into a massive red curtain. Twisted human faces writhed and screamed across its surface, stretching the flesh as they clawed from within.At that instant, the Cryptbound Twelve struck in unison.Bone blades, whips, and spears tore through the air as twelve blurred shadows—each one howling with razor-sharp force—charged toward Dustin."Child

    Sloan tunneled through the muddy underground using the earth-shifting technique. Even though he'd found good cover earlier, the altar's destruction still affected him. Now, his energy was a chaotic mess, and every breath sent fresh pain lancing through his torso.But he had no time to worry about his injuries. He raced toward the Nether Crypt at maximum speed. The grand elder had to be warned. They need to relocate their base.Hidden beneath the gnarled roots of a 1,000-year-old banyan tree, the crypt's entrance would stay buried forever unless one knew precisely where to look.Sloan tunneled at full speed, burning through his internal energy reserves as he drove forward. After 15 relentless minutes, he finally reached the Nether Crypt entrance.He flicked three bone talismans from his fingertips. The banyan's root system parted slowly like snakes, revealing a pitch-black passage. As soon as he slipped inside, the soil behind him churned violently and sealed the passage shut.Sloa

    Golden radiance flared around Dustin, making him look like a blazing sun hanging over the swamp. Faced with Gore's crimson cage, Venom's vortex of hexspitters, and Grinder's hail of bone needles, he didn't back down. Instead, he stepped forward with a smirk."You really think these cheap tricks are going to work on me?"Before the words fell, Dustin spread his arms wide open. In that instant, countless threads of golden light burst from his body, spreading outward in all directions like an enormous radiant web.As Gore's cage began to close in, the golden threads whipped through the air and coiled around it. The seemingly indestructible blood tendrils shredded like brittle strands under the golden light.Seeing that, his face twisted in shock. He tried to retract them, but the golden threads seemed almost alive as they raced along the tendrils toward his arm."Damn it!"Gore's face turned pale. He desperately channeled his internal energy to sever the blood tendrils, but it was

    After the zombie virus crisis had been resolved, Dustin's hatred for the Skull Covenant had reached its breaking point. Plague, scarlet mist, zombie virus—each one a ruthless attempt to wipe entire cities off the map.Despite his best efforts to save lives and thwart their schemes, tens of thousands of civilians still died in the chaos. All four major cities across the Ashen Coast had also suffered varying degrees of devastation.They couldn't afford to wait for the next attack. If the Skull Covenant struck again, who knew how many more innocent lives would be lost?The best approach now was to eliminate the root of the problem. They had to completely eradicate the Skull Covenant and restore peace to the Ashen Coast.Dustin barely had time to catch his breath after returning to Reedcrest. He went straight to find Grace."I've got good news and bad news," she said the moment she saw him."Let's hear both," he replied."The good news is, my people found the Skull Covenant's altar.

    The earth shook as the white figure slammed into the ground with a thunderous crash. Golden winds whirled around him like a protective shield. The zombies charging forward slammed into an invisible wall, and their gray-green bodies exploded into chunks. Dark brown fluid mixed with bone fragments splattered across the city wall, filling the air with acrid, white smoke."It's the powerhouse!" someone shouted from inside the courtyard.The terrified civilians who had been cowering moments before suddenly burst into wild cheers. They all remembered what had happened during Thornwick's scarlet mist crisis. A mysterious white figure had appeared like something out of legend, clearing all the deadly mist and saving their city from certain doom. With the zombies closing in on the walls, the sight of that familiar white figure felt like seeing a savior."He's here at last," Matthias muttered.He tightened his grip on his blood-slicked saber and watched the white figure cut through the z
