Su Lu stood atop the cresting waves, a face formed of the water below, uttering the same words, his voice expanding over the entire city.
"And I!"
"Turing Arthas! I am your nadir!"
"I will destroy this world!"
"I hope, before that happens, you can stop me!"

He strongly suspected that this terrifyingly powerful newcomer was a madman worshiping those Evil Gods!
Only a madman could do something like this!
"Such a filthy human world..."
Su Lu's eyes swept over, gazing at the city resembling a war fortress nearby and the massive crowd of people frantically screaming and fleeing: "What is the harm in destruction?"
