Chapter 348: WAR

~7 min read 1,285 words

Klein looked at the two Demigods amidst the dust and directly pulled out a pile of Paper Figurine to scatter them.

These Paper Figurine were all characters from magically altered Dark Fairy Tale, such as the Black Witch, the Headless Horseman, the Werewolf, and so on.

These fairy tale characters transformed from the Paper Figurine were all villainous roles in the Dark Fairy Tale written—or perhaps even customized—by Klein, possessing incredible abilities.

"Awoo!" The Werewolf did not run up to give Zatwin a claw strike, but instead let out a howl toward the sky.

Suddenly, it was as if a phantom projection of a Red Moon had appeared.

It was also at this moment that Cattleya, who had not yet made a move, suddenly took out a scroll and tore it open directly.

Starlight erupted from that scroll, dripping and gathering into the phantom Red Moon in the sky.

The Sequence 5 of the Seer Pathway is "Astrologer," which can borrow the power of the stars to enhance the power of the Red Moon.

The blood-colored moonlight gained substance and spilled onto the battlefield.

After setting the plan to hunt the Demigod, Klein and the others naturally would not recklessly charge in; they had long since conducted a key analysis of Zatwin's potential weaknesses and made targeted preparations.

Every Beyonder of the Prisoner Pathway carries a powerful and terrifying Curse; this kind of Curse can only be suppressed, not eliminated.

Zatwin, who was confronting Sharon, paused abruptly and was directly wrapped into a ball by the dust controlled by Sharon; the dust suddenly solidified, turning into earth spikes that pierced through the person inside.

Sharon looked sharply at Zatwin, her figure beginning to fade as she established another kind of Hidden connection with Zatwin's body.

"How... are you able to resist the Red Moon!?" Zatwin looked up at Sharon, discovering that her state had not changed at all, and his expression became distorted.

Yet this Demigod also reacted at the critical moment, suppressing his own Curse, and his "Wraith" form turned into a spirit body, dodging this strangulation.

"Crack!"

The most important things on Sharon and Maric were actually the Dream Badge they wore, which directly helped them suppress the Curse while also preventing the influence of the Red Moon.

Even their ability to advance in a short period of time had a great deal to do with these badges.

This is a special skill of the "Puppet," equivalent to an upgraded version of "Wraith Possession."

Zatwin glanced at the Red Moon hanging in the air, feeling extremely wary; he only felt his sanity evaporating, constantly sliding toward a dangerous situation.

"Red Moon!"

At this moment, Zatwin's head also felt as dull as wood.

This weakness of the Red Moon was provided by Sharon and Maric, and this is also the common and greatest weakness of the Prisoner Pathway.

This is also the theoretical foundation of the Temperance Faction; unfortunately, Zatwin was a pure member of the Indulgence Faction and would never think of controlling his desires or enduring the Curse on his body.

At the same time, the Black Witch and other Paper Figurine driven by Klein, Leonard's natural spirits, and Maric all entered the dust storm to deal lethal blows.

If this state were maintained for too long, he would even lose control and become a pile of rotting flesh.

At the emergency moment, a bolt of scorching white lightning suddenly erupted from Zatwin's body.

Now, the appearance of this Red Moon was directly causing his state to plummet rapidly.

This bolt of lightning slithered like an electric snake over Zatwin's body, directly breaking Miss Sharon's control.

And the awakened Zatwin directly used Mirror Jump to distance himself from the powerful attacks of several Sequence 5s.

As a "Puppet" himself, he knew how to most quickly break free from the state of being controlled.

"The coordination on the other side is very good; I am truly... in some... danger..."

Zatwin directly disengaged from the Mirror Jump state, his joints all over his body feeling like a rusted machine, full of sluggishness.

"Not good... it's... 'Puppet Master'..." Zatwin's gaze locked directly onto Klein.

At this moment, the threat Klein posed in his eyes was no less than that of the Demigod Sharon.

His sluggish right hand lifted, pointing at Klein, intending to resist.

But with his Spirit Body Thread under control, he clearly could not dodge Sharon's control once again.

In just an instant, he felt a familiar sensation fall upon his body; his eyelids became even heavier, as if he had become a real Puppet.

The combination of Spirit Body Thread and Wraith Possession was too perfect; under dual control, even a Demigod would find it difficult to break free for a time.

He even found it difficult to trigger the Demigod-level Sealed Artifact on his body again!

"Could it be... that I will really... die here?!" At this moment, a thought flashed through Zatwin's mind.

He had underestimated a group of fully-equipped Sequence 5s.

His fate was already sealed the moment he did not leave after discovering that Sharon had advanced to a Demigod.

A single Demigod, Sharon, could pin him down, and the remaining Sequence 5s only needed to output their best to have a high probability of keeping him here permanently.

As for that "Red Moon," it was an even greater killing move, weakening him without letting Sharon be affected.

Every step thereafter pushed him toward the Abyss.

In West Balam, Azik Eggers, who had awakened the Undead Army, seemed to have returned to his time as an Administrator in the Fourth Epoch, when all of Balam under the Underworld Emperor had to crawl at his feet.

"Kill!" A trace of indifference flashed in Azik Eggers's eyes; he looked toward the Star Plateau and waved his hand, manifesting an Underworld passage that landed directly in the heartland of the Rose School of Thought!

Boom!

This was an infinitely tall Underworld Gate, breaking the barrier between the Real World and the Underworld, sending the terrifying Undead Army into the battlefield to launch a terrifying war.

One could imagine that if this army had truly set foot on the land of the Northern Continent at the end of the Fourth Epoch, it would certainly have been a terrifying wave of death.

"Die!"

Boom!

The sky over the Star Plateau suddenly plunged into gloom and darkness, and a giant hand reached out from the depths of the plateau to grab at the Underworld Gate.

The appearance of the Undead Army directly alarmed the "Divine Sin" of the Rose School of Thought!

Such an army could not be allowed to land on the Star Plateau!

The power of the "Divine Sin" fell upon the Undead Army, spreading at a terrifying speed and beginning to erode those skeletons into "Living Corpse."

The Sequence 6 "Living Corpse" of the Prisoner Pathway is also proficient in necromancy and controlling Living Corpse.

When this ability was used by the "Divine Sin," it underwent a qualitative change, as if it were some kind of "Authority."

He is competing with the "Death Consul" for control over this Undead Army!

This is very difficult, but it must be said that this is a very effective method; the Undead Army about to land on the Star Plateau from within the Underworld Gate has all begun to stall.

Some of the undead walking at the very front have already been affected by the "Divine Sin," becoming Living Corpses and pouncing on the undead beside them.

But the Undead Army was forged by the Underworld Emperor; how could it be so easy to deal with?

"War!"

Azik expressionlessly chanted this word in Giant Language.
