Lin Feng's POV

“Let me see that!”

The Captain moved instantly, lunging forward and snatching the badge from my hand. His confidence vanished as quickly as it had appeared.

His fingers traced the engravings, his face drained of that smug smile he had on a while ago.

Color fled from his skin, leaving behind something uncertain.

“This…” he whispered, his voice no longer carrying authority, only disbelief. “This is the Grand Elder’s seal…”

His hands trembled.

“Where did you get this? He’s been mis

  • Chapter 55: The Breath Of The Saint

    Lin Feng’s POVMeeting Junjie definitely opened my eyes more to just what nullities can do or perhaps what follows them. He'd be very useful to me. The days activities went on as usual, nullities working and all that, and when it was night, people began falling asleep. But I didn't.The clock struck midnight and the darkness was incinerated.I stood atop the rusted gantry of the main turbine hall, the skeletal metal groaning faintly beneath my weight as I looked out over the Scavenger Pits. The world below, usually drowned in shadow, decay, and a kind of oppressive twilight, was being peeled open.The sky was bleeding, a violent tear of gold had split the clouds apart, stretching across the heavens like a wound that refused to close. It wasn’t sunlight. It didn’t rise gradually or warm the horizon. It invaded, a harsh, artificial brilliance that carved through the toxic smog like a blade through rotting flesh. The stars vanished.And for a single, suffocating moment, the entire was

  • Chapter 54: The Clumsy Shield

    Junjie's POVLin Feng taking us, the nullities with him to live in the scavenger pits wasn't exactly something I had dreamed of. Back at the academy, I didn't get to see him on a day-to-day basis, but the few times I did, he looked like the damned of every one of us. I admired his perseverance because of what I saw him go through, the constant bullying and every other thing I saw him suffer, I would never have thought he'd have so much power eventually. The mud of the Scavenger Pits was a greedy mouth, and today, it wanted my left boot for some reason. Settling here, especially for me, hasn't been easy, but I manage and do my best. I stumbled, my arms flailing like a panicked bird, as I tried to balance a rusted sheet of corrugated iron on my shoulder. I am Junjie, the boy who could trip over a flat shadow. Among the Nullities, I was the bottom of the food chain, the weak link, the jester, the one who would likely be the first to die if the Empire ever decided to stop ignoring us

  • Chapter 53: The Ageless Maiden

    Yue’s POVThe smell that emanated from the Scavenger Pits was a thick, oily soup of failure.It clung to everything. The stench of decay wasn’t just physical, it was historical. Generations of discarded lives, crushed ambitions, and systemic rot had settled here, layering the atmosphere with something far heavier than mere pollution.Most people would choke on it, not me. I walked through battlefields where the ground itself wept blood. I had stood in courts where kings traded souls like coin. Compared to that… this was simply honest filth.Yet as I stood before Lin Feng, something else cut through the staleness of the Pits.A certain familiarity that's ancient.He stood before me like a fracture in reality itself, a silhouette of violet fire and charcoal-stained rags, his form unstable, his presence warping the air around him. The void clung to him like a second skin, leaking from the cracks in his body slowly, even though he was healing. To the untrained eye, he was exactly what t

  • Chapter 52: The Shadow In The Sun

    Lin Feng's POV It worked! “Yes!” I couldn't even hide my excitement that such a dangerous gamble paid off. I was glad and that gave me the power to keep pushing. The iron grate of the sewer exit hissed as it dissolved under my touch, the metal turning into grey ash. I collapsed onto the blackened soil of the Outer Wastes, the air finally hitting my lungs, not the sterilized, perfumed air of the Capital, but the thick, metallic scent of my home.The Scavenger Pits lay ahead, a jagged scar on the earth’s surface. To anyone else, it was a graveyard of industrial waste and broken dreams. To me, it was a fortress."We’re back," Shen whimpered, falling to his knees and kissing the soot-stained ground. He didn't care about the toxic runoff or the smell of burning tires anymore. It wasn't the Capital, and that was enough.I didn't join him in the dirt. I stood, my body still humming with that terrifying, unstable vibration. My vision flickered, the HUD of the Gacha interface glowing a deep

  • Chapter 51: The Shadow Fight

    Lin Feng’s POVThe girl with silver hair didn’t move to intercept us. She simply stood there, watching, more reason I had to believe it wasn't real. But for it to be shown to me, someone was definitely watching. Her presence pressed down on the world like a second sky, cold and suffocating. The light around her was sterile. Surgical. It erased shadow rather than illuminating it. I didn't even get to see her face properly. My Legion of the Damned, entities born from the deepest layers of void, twitched at the edge of her influence, their forms thinning, distorting, as if reality itself was rejecting them. But they had almost finished dealing with the Knights and there was now space to escape. She was a problem, not one I could solve right now, so I didn’t stay to ask for her name.My HUD was flashing a violent, rhythmic purple, pulsing in time with the chaos inside my chest. The air around me warped subtly, bending and stretching as if I were standing at the center of a gravitation

  • Chapter 50: Escape From The Capital

    Lin Feng's POV The Elder disappeared right after I said that, he was of no use to me anymore,at least for now. I turned to look at everyone below me. A very satisfying sight if I must add. But everything was getting boring quickly. I knew very well more of them would come to get me, and I was not sure I had enough juice for all that. I saw the enraged face of the elders present there, they couldn't seem to understand how a nullity such as me would do something so beautiful. I took in the air. The "Sanctified Mana" of the Capital was no longer a stinging nuisance, it was an active predator, hissing against my skin as I stood atop the ruined altar. Below me, the High Priests were screaming for a lockdown, their voices thin and shrill against the thunderous silence of the Void I had just exhaled.I looked down at Chen. He was a hollowed-out shell, his dress scorched and his eyes wide with a terror that screamed his physical pain. I didn’t feel the surge of brotherly protection I
