Chapter 56: Starfire Hall

~7 min read 1,273 words

Top of the clock tower.

After watching the torch cut through the dark night sky until it disappeared, Xia Mingyu's expression became solemn.

He straightened his back and waited quietly.

One minute, two minutes... ten minutes passed, and there was still no change in the open space behind him.

Xia Mingyu: "???"

"Wouldn't it be that there is no one in the whole world who has the same will as me?" Xia Mingyu's mouth twitched.

He thought that after activating the ability, a group of muscular men who were eight feet tall and comparable to Lu Bu would immediately appear in front of him to help him with his great cause.

He even made a solemn appearance to leave a good impression on the muscular men.

"It's a bit too exaggerated to clean up the whole world by myself..." Xia Mingyu's expression couldn't hold up.

Shasha.

At this time, a cold wind blew in the middle of the night, making him shiver a little.

At the same time, after experiencing so many things during the day, he, who was already physically and mentally exhausted, felt a thick sleepiness.

"Go back to sleep first, and see tomorrow."

Xia Mingyu yawned and chose to go downstairs and leave.

Guest bedroom.

Xia Mingyu lay on the soft large bed covered with layers of silk quilts and fell into a deep sleep shortly after closing his eyes.

The room was so quiet that only his even breathing could be heard.

However, the body fell into a deep sleep, but the rhythm of the dream had just begun.

"What is this place?"

Xia Mingyu looked blankly at the magnificent hall in front of him.

The towering crystal dome was covered with countless exquisite murals, and the murals actually told of epic battles full of blood, fire, tears, and sad songs on Blue Star.

The degree of lifelikeness was as if it had been carved by the world's top masters who had spent their whole lives.

The ground was paved with cyan copper and iron, and twelve huge obsidian prisms rose into the sky. Each prism surface was shining with clear brilliance, and a torch was embedded in it, with transparent and bright candle flames burning at the top.

"Is this a dream..."

Xia Mingyu spread his palms and found that his body was not flesh and blood at this moment, but groups of burning flames.

He turned into a "fire" person, in the literal sense.

Not only that, in this magnificent hall, he even had the illusion of being in charge of everything.

As if the material composition, shape, temperature... and even the underlying physical rules here could be arbitrarily fabricated like plasticine according to his will.

"Want to try?"

Xia Mingyu snapped his fingers.

The next moment, countless murals on the crystal dome actually moved like movie projections.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of artillery fire was everywhere, and there was the deafening roar of planes passing through the sky.

Shasha.

The twelve obsidian prisms that looked incomparably hard were actually automatically increasing or decreasing in height according to his will.

"It's just like a god!"

Xia Mingyu exclaimed.

Crackle!

Just then, two more burning torches rose in the hall.

It was just that they didn't form a "fire" person like him, but quickly dissipated to reveal the two figures wrapped inside.

"What is this place?" One of the figures opened his mouth suspiciously.

That was a youth in his early twenties with a sword at his waist.

The man was tall and straight, his golden hair shining like sunlight, his beautiful eyes as blue as the sea, his soft and exquisite facial features, more like a statue carved by a god than a living person.

The white knight uniform on him had a noble temperament.

This was the first time Xia Mingyu had seen someone whose appearance was comparable to his own.

As for the other figure brought by the torch... it was quite different.

That was a giant man who was two meters sixty-seven tall, with skin slightly showing a copper color, wearing only a pair of linen shorts, and a bare upper body, barefoot.

His body was very, very strong. Even the strongest bodybuilder with full technology on Blue Star before crossing was like a chicken in front of him.

His chest was broad and thick, his muscles were distinct, each one as hard as bronze, his legs were like two giant pillars, firmly supporting his huge body, and his shoulders were even broader as if he could carry the entire sky.

And the most eye-catching place was that his skin, including his face, was covered with crisscrossing scars, some as thin as snakes, some as thick as gullies.

Some of these scars had turned white, blending with the surrounding skin, obviously old wounds from many years ago, and some still had faint pink, obviously wounds that had just healed recently.

It's hard to imagine how many tragic battles or beatings a person has to go through to be covered in scars.

"Hoo hoo..."

This giant man did not speak, just vigilantly looked at the hall he was in, and beast-like panting sounded in his mouth.

Soon, after experiencing the shock of the projection on the dome, the two of them locked their eyes on the burning "fire" person—Xia Mingyu—without exception.

Obviously, they both realized that the other party should be the culprit who pulled them here.

"What a terrifying pressure..."

The golden-haired youth stared tightly at the "fire" person, his expression nervous.

In his perception, the other party seemed to be connected to the whole world, and every move had the great power to shake the whole world.

Not only that, after coming to this hall, some of the gifts on his body seemed to be suppressed and extremely difficult to activate, and...

The golden-haired youth glanced at the giant man not far beside him.

He could be sure that the other party definitely did not carry any items to hide identity protection, but there was no protection above the giant man's head.

This meant that this magnificent hall even shielded the protection of the world for all wise creatures.

Since this was the case, the identity of that "fire" person was self-evident—an eternal true god!

Thinking of this, the golden-haired youth's pupils shrank sharply.

"Great god, may I ask why you pulled us into your kingdom of God?"

The golden-haired youth slowly walked to the "fire" person and bowed respectfully.

Once these words were spoken, the giant man's pupils also shrank sharply. He also walked to the "fire" person with iron tower-like feet and silently bowed his body to show respect.

"It's a bit exaggerated... actually mistaking me for a god."

Xia Mingyu looked at the two people bowing in front of him, a little helpless.

For a while, he didn't know how to explain it. Should he just pretend to be a god to command these two fierce men who looked very strong?

No, what he needs is not believers, but companions who live and die together.

"Immortal god, I respect your greatness and supremacy, but if you are asking me to become your believer, please give me the right to choose to refuse."

At this time, seeing that the "god" had not responded for a long time, the golden-haired youth bowed again and opened his mouth respectfully.

"Because I am already a believer of the God of Sun and Justice, and I have decided to devote my remaining life to the greatest and most magnificent cause in this world—pursuing justice."

He explained sincerely.
