Chapter455: Hope Comes from SacrificeElder

Astra's guess was correct; that terrifying and powerful presence was indeed the Dark Overlord. The first wave of the apocalypse created an immense amount of death.

Although this death could not construct a stable passage for the Dark Overlord to descend directly, it was sufficient for the Dark Overlord to project his power into the world of the Shelter Game.The Dark Overlord's immense power quickly strengthened the already weakened dark forces.

However, the enhancement of dark power was not good news for Elder Astra. His moment of clarity lasted only a few brief seconds before the surge of dark power twisted him into a grotesque and terrifying monster.

Meanwhile, Irving's companions within Hope Ark also felt the resurgence of dark power, leading them to decide to seal off Hope Ark.

"The dark power is increasing again! We must seal Hope Ark; only then can we ensure our chances of survival!" James shouted to everyone.
