Chapter 326
In the dark of night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
The Luo Nika Duchy.
This was a night unlike any before.
At this moment, inside the resplendent Wang Gong, Luo Nika's prince was hosting a banquet, entertaining the palace nobles and ministers.
Not only the palace ministers, but everyone in the Wang Gong—from the prince down to the guards—was immersed in the banquet.
As for the reason for the banquet, even the maid who was closest to him did not know; she only knew that Luo Nika's prince was in a very good mood today, and the rest was completely unknown.
One had to know that the entire Yixiu Jiaer was currently affected by another world, and not long ago, Luo Nika's king had only just passed away.
At such a critical juncture, Luo Nika's prince could still be in high spirits; no one knew what on earth he was thinking.
Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and it was deep into the night. At this hour, on the walls of Luo Nika's Wang Gong, one by one, quite a few soldiers in the Royal Army uniforms were yawning, drowsy and half asleep.
"What rotten luck—how did it end up being our turn on watch? Otherwise we'd be eating meat and drinking wine right now."
"Stop talking, you're making my mouth water."
"Who wouldn't want to? This time the prince brought out a lot of wine!"
"Why do you think the prince suddenly wants to hold a banquet? You know everyone's worried about those Yijie people launching a surprise attack—is our prince's heart just a little too big?"
"……"
Of course, there were also a few bold fellows among the Royal Army.
"I heard the news spreading from those Yijie people—supposedly, in the world we live in, there seems to exist some powerful scattered fragment. As long as you get the fragment, you can apparently become an existence comparable to the Holy Ten Great Mages in one go. I don't know if it's true."
Leaning against the cold wall, a soldier said it offhandedly, but his face plainly showed how much he wanted it; the look of longing was almost written all over his face.
"Xie Er, that's enough of you—Holy Ten Great Mage? Just the other day I heard another rumor: that if you get all the fragments, you can grant that person any wish they want."
"Forget it. Something like that won't fall to us. Even if it exists, wouldn't those Yijie people know about it? Would they not come snatch it? Didn't you see that even the Fapingyi Society lost this war?"
"Those Yijie people are pretty powerful, but we're in our own world—our chances are always greater than theirs. Who knows, the fragment might be right under our feet."
"Xie Er, then you go look for it on your own. After you find it and become a master, don't forget us Menzhe Gang of brothers in hardship."
The guard named Xie Er looked at them, about to retort something.
Suddenly his eyes widened, the expression on his face gradually turning blank, then quickly the blankness transformed into thick shock, and finally he couldn't help but tremble as he spoke.
"Y-you-you… you guys… look… look quickly…"
"Look at what? What's there to see, in the middle of the night? Don't try to scare me."
Seeing this, the others were also stunned, but they still slowly turned around to look.
However……
The instant they turned their heads in the direction that guard was looking, their pupils also violently contracted in a sharp spasm.
Beneath the boundless starry sky, in the middle of empty air where nothing should be, a black hole suddenly appeared, and as time passed, this black hole was continuously expanding.
The appearance of this black hole was exactly the same as the spatial passage connecting to another world, as described in recent rumors.
"Another-world passage—it's appeared again?"
Coming back to their senses, the few Royal Army soldiers who reacted cried out in panic.
"Go tell the prince—enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Along with the panicked shouts, a large number of soldiers came running, but upon seeing the black hole in the sky, they too froze on the spot just like the previous soldiers.
"Another world has appeared again—those Yijie people have appeared."
"Damn it—how did those guys show up here?"
"Luo Nika is just a small country—why have those guys set their sights on this place?"
……
The appearance of the black hole plunged the entire Wang Gong straight into chaos.
Staring at the black hole in the sky, the guard named Xie Er couldn't help but mutter blankly.
"Why would Yijie people come here? Is it because a fragment exists here??"
At this very moment!
Swish swish swish!
A white figure walked out of the black hole and came to a halt in midair.
It was a man with Bai Fa and white skin, dressed in a plain shirt and trousers. With this man's appearance, the mages below rapidly gathered and launched fire attacks!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Violent explosions resounded through the night sky,
illuminating even the entire city where the Wang Gong stood. Countless people were startled awake from their dreams, then ran out of their houses, watching the eruption in the sky in fright.......
The rumbling explosions continued for a long time, only stopping their attack when their magic power was exhausted.
However, just when they thought they had dealt with the opponent, the crowd discovered that after the smoke cleared, the Bai Fa man stood in place completely unharmed.
"Hey, hey, hey—clearly I don't like fighting, so why are you still attacking me?"
"At least let me finish talking before you make a move. How were you educated? I feel like you're violating my right to speak." Boom—!
The instant the Bai Fa man opened his mouth, the next second, a gust of wind howled past. In the eyes of the many soldiers, a black shadow flashed, blood blossomed, and every guard standing on the city wall died.
"So delicious! Such a delicacy—no matter how much I eat, I can't get full!"
"More! More! More! More! More! More!"
Along with the words spoken, beside the Bai Fa man there appeared another short man with long dark-brown hair, his arms bound with paired blades, his mouth split almost to the back of his head stretching out a long tongue, licking the bloodstains left on the blades from killing the soldiers.
