Chapter 493

~10 min read 1,872 words

A small amount of the gray fog shrouding the Fourth Era Trier had even spread to the wilderness, seemingly intercepting and stopping something.

Snarna, Dister, and other powerhouses in the hurricane all felt that high and terrifying aura, instinctively wanting to lower their heads to show submission. This was like the "Blood Emperor" Alista Tudor, who had fallen deep in the Fourth Era Trier, coming back to life, but not so crazy, not so violent, instead having more of a sense of hidden danger and calamity.

Resisting the urge to submit with all their heart and mind, and still retreating, the figure wearing blood-stained black armor was reflected in their eyes, as was the young man with long red hair and a bright blood mark bulging on his forehead.

Their spirits tightened, and a name simultaneously appeared in their minds:

"Medici"!

"Red Angel" Medici!

This was a king from ancient times, already an Angel of Kings as early as the Fourth Era, or even the Third Era destroyed by disaster.

And an Angel of Kings was an existence that transcended Sequence 1 Great Angels but had not yet reached Sequence 0 True God. They had either consumed multiple Sequence 1 potions or occupied key objects to become gods, but still lacked other things, unable to take that crucial step.

The "Red Angel" was one of the eight Angels of Kings who once followed the "Ancient Sun God," and died at the hands of Alista Tudor during the Fourth Era, allowing the latter to become the "Blood Emperor."

But this Angel of Kings did not die completely; he turned into an evil spirit in some hidden place, surviving in this way, and suddenly appeared a few years ago, becoming active again.

As angels of the "Hunter" pathway, Snarna and Dister were all very concerned about this matter, suspecting that Medici might have already obtained a "Conqueror" Beyonder characteristic, becoming a Sequence 1 Great Angel once again.

When plotting for Vonda Solon's "Conqueror" Beyonder characteristic, Snarna and Dister were all guarding against this king from ancient times participating as well. After Albus Medici reported his name, they were even more guarded, monitoring constantly. It was only after the action was forced to be advanced and the "Red Angel" showed no signs of entering the seal, and Albus Medici did not do anything abnormal, that they felt relieved.

But just at this critical moment, "Red Angel" Medici appeared!

He brought a terrifying momentum of conquering everything, flying magnificently from deep within the Fourth Era Trier, accurately grasping the opportunity, and striking Vonda Solon into serious injury with one blow.

Medici's gaze swept over Snarna and Dister with contempt, throwing the object in his hand toward the Calamity Giant Vonda Solon, who was struggling to get up.

That was a blood-stained umbilical cord.

As soon as this umbilical cord was thrown out, it burned on its own, emitting golden light, as if it had turned into a miniature sun.

In the mid-air of Trier on the ground, that "sun" surrounded by hurricanes, lightning, and heavy rain suddenly emitted dazzling light, breaking a crack in the disaster-like scene.

A chubby baby, seemingly composed of pure sunlight, flew out from the crack, completely turning into a golden sun, falling straight toward the Red Tianebao in the Erat District.

The burning sun tore through the sky, melting the spire, walls, and floor of the ancient castle, falling all the way into the depths of the underground labyrinth, falling into that coffin made of bronze.

Wherever it passed, all darkness retreated, and the withered, shriveled heart turned into ashes. Eloise Einhorn, waiting outside the underground palace, instinctively closed her eyes, her body trembling uncontrollably.

The "Hanged Man" in the high sky did not chase this sun that had begun to self-destruct, staying above the storm, watching the Red Tianebao, which had left a huge wound, not knowing what he was thinking.

Danitz, who was leading the team in the Erat District to fight against those mutated soldiers and the monster-like Carbonari army, was blinded by the dazzling sunlight and couldn't help but curse out loud.

The people and aliens around him had similar reactions.

Inside the outer seal of the Fourth Era Trier, the invisible flames burning quietly in the high sky suddenly appeared as a huge vortex, stained with a golden color.

That sun fell from the vortex, illuminating the entire wilderness and the entire Fourth Era Trier as if it were broad daylight.

It caught up with the burning umbilical cord, enveloping Vonda Solon, the Great Angel who had suffered heavy injuries.

Sunlight erupted, and there was no longer a trace of darkness. The Calamity Giant formed by the "Conqueror" losing control screamed, melting rapidly and suffering extreme purification.

The baby that had turned into a sun no longer existed; only the residual power was burning violently, emitting light and warmth.

Snarna, Dister, and other powerhouses all turned their bodies to the side, becoming like steel, resisting the impact of the sunlight.

…………

Inside the illuminated Fourth Era Trier.

The fiercely fighting Vazan Sanson and Lady Pualis closed their eyes at the same time, seemingly unable to adapt to the direct sunlight.

By the time their vision recovered, they had lost sight of each other, respectively located in places different from just now: one in a plaza with stone pillars, one standing on a collapsed black building.

"This..." The two blessed ones who had already come into contact with divine power were stunned for a moment, then immediately understood that this was the Fourth Era Trier being stimulated by the golden sunlight, producing certain changes, including changes in direction and spatial chaos.

…………

Gardner Ma Ding, wearing silver-white full-body armor, could already see the gray-white fog as thick as a wall, a burst of joy in his heart.

What he craved, what he wanted to get, was all there.

Suddenly, sunlight shone down, making the environment that was about to enter the dark night bright everywhere.

Gardner Ma Ding instinctively closed his eyes and slowed his pace.

He immediately heard a cracking sound.

That came from his neck.

Gardner Ma Ding looked down in astonishment, adapting to the sunlight as he looked downward.

Accompanied by a burst of intense and strange pain, he saw the distance between his head and chest getting further and further, saw blood spraying out from the break in his neck, staining a patch red.

He also saw his own white, blood-stained spine.

How could this be... Gardner Ma Ding flashed such a thought, both shocked and terrified.

He had always believed that he was the one who was favored, the special one, so under the gaze of the great will deep in the Fourth Era Trier, even if he entered the building at 13 Market Avenue, he only suffered slight pollution and could use a small amount of some power within the Fourth Era Trier, without turning into the terrifying monster like Olsen whose head and body were separated.

But now, his head was also dragging his spine away from his body, just when he was closest to that great will!

…………

"Lady Moon," who had brown wings and claws like a bird, fell down with flowing silver electric light.

She first went completely crazy, turning into a stunned monster—this came from the "Plague Storm" of the "Spectator" pathway—and then suffered nine attacks launched by the "Magician" from nine directions.

Sunlight shone down. While the "Magician" subconsciously closed her eyes, her right hand swept across the mid-air, causing the void here to bend and turn into a closed, dark sphere, protecting herself, "Justice," and "Lady Moon," whose life was flowing away rapidly, inside, bearing the subsequent mutations as a whole.

…………

Inside the sphere woven from thick black hair, Yu Jianna, Fu Lan Ka, and Anthony felt as if there were intense storms and various disasters outside, to the point that the ground was trembling and the sphere was swaying from side to side.

After the passage of slow time calculated in seconds, the snake-like black hair composing the dark sphere cracked rapidly, and a ray of sunlight shone in from the top.

In such sunlight, a phantom female voice seemed to ring in the ears of Yu Jianna and Fu Lan Ka:

"Reconcile with your mirror self..."

Accompanied by this sound, the fine snake-like black hair disintegrated completely, no longer forming a sphere, and hid back into the void.

And Fu Lan Ka and the others saw that there seemed to be an extra layer of dark glass around them, which shattered silently under the sunlight, falling off in pieces.

In the various buildings nearby, the lit lamps and the figures that appeared disappeared accordingly, returning to the silent state when Yu Jianna and the others first entered these ruins.

After Anthony adapted to the sunlight, he immediately looked at Lu Mi, discovering that the bulging veins on this companion's face had already faded, and the distorted expression gradually relaxed.

"Are you okay?" Anthony asked while using "Soothe."

After Lu Mi heard those roars, his mind was completely occupied by the sigh of the man in the dark room, no longer having the feeling that too much poured-in knowledge carried pollution, his head was about to be blown up, and his reason was about to be lost.

He quickly returned to normal, no longer hearing the sigh, no longer seeing the haggard man in strange clothes.

"I made it through." Lu Mi answered Anthony's question.

At the same time, he muttered in his heart:

"Was that the 'Celestial Master' the armored shadow spoke of?

"Using the 'Eye of True Perception' here is even more dangerous than outside."

Fu Lan Ka leaned over while picking up the "Torture" gauntlet and other items, throwing out a "Blood-Thirsty Arrow":

"What was wrong with you just now?"

"Aftereffects of using the 'Eye of True Perception'." Lu Mi took the "Blood-Thirsty Arrow," inserted it into his chest with a backhand, looked around, and said, "Let's quickly take all the items and transfer to another place."

He had used the "Torture" gauntlet earlier, hoping to attract the gaze of a dangerous existence in the absence of other methods, actively creating a chaotic situation to find an opportunity. But now, the Gardner in the mirror had been resolved; if they didn't transfer, they would face new dangers!

Yu Jianna didn't have time to think about what "reconcile with your mirror self" meant, re-packed the "Bone Flute" and "Wooden Box" and other items with that half-piece of blood-stained cloak, followed Lu Mi, Fu Lan Ka, and Anthony, bypassed the giant black pillar, and ran wildly in a randomly chosen direction.

…………

In the scorching sunlight, the purple flames serving as Vonda Solon's flesh and blood extinguished piece by piece, and the distorted faces representing different members of the Solon family disappeared one by one.

The "Red Angel's" body suddenly became huge, like a small mountain peak.

He held a giant sword condensed from purple flames, took a step, and slashed toward the dying Vonda Solon.

Snarna, Dister, and other powerhouses who had already recovered would certainly not give up just like that, making interceptions one after another.
