Chapter 2404: Light Angel

Click~

After the washroom door was pulled open, there was familiar white fog behind the door. Xia De reached out to touch the white fog—

【Outlander, please note. Message from "Father of the Infinite Tree": You are allowed to carry one extra relic this time.】

"Still 【Desire Perfume Bottle】."

He temporarily put all other relics on the floor, but "she" asked at this time:

【Are you sure you want to use this key now?】

"Yes, I can't sit at the table and keep consuming my spirit. This counts as a pre-war warm-up."

【Outlander, you have stepped into the "Corridor of Time."】

【Message from the ancient god "Father of the Infinite Tree":】

【Past · Sixth Era, Old Continent, City of the End · Tobesk.】

【Event: Tobesk, the Last Era.】

【Duration: Arbitrary (5/∞).】

【You have obtained extra information.】

【You have stepped into a non-existent history.】

【The figure of the Father of the Infinite Tree is watching you.】

【Note: During this exploration, you cannot leave the Saint-Trelan Square area.】

【Note: You are allowed to carry any casting materials into this period of time.】

【Note: Use the time key to defeat any strong enemy, and you can return to the "present" time.】

Walking in the white fog, Xia De returned to his dilapidated home again.

Carrying the pressure of facing a god-war that might not be winnable, the bad influence of the doomsday environment seemed to be weakened, but Xia De's mood did not get better because of this.

The location where he appeared was still Room 1 on the second floor of his home. After sitting on the sofa and covering his forehead for a while, he stood up, summoned the Yggdrasil Staff, used it as a crutch, and went to the first floor along the creaking stairs covered with black stains and mold.

Creak~

Pushing hard on the door that was stuck in the severely deformed door frame, the strong wind carrying sand hit Xia De's face directly.

The slight pain did not need to be cared about at all. After walking out of the door crack sideways, he looked up and narrowed his eyes to see the black sun flowing with fiery red lines downward from the sky full of yellow sand.

I don't know if it was because he had been exposed to too much special light recently, but Xia De's perception of light had also been enhanced a lot. The light of Moon Bay and the Gravel Gold Sand Sea was violent and aggressive, while the light at this moment only had decay and nothingness left:

"The light here is also going to 'die'."

Walking down the steps with half missing at the door, after taking out the silver pocket watch in his pocket, the palm-wide, glowing white flower-style rune string had already appeared on the ground under his feet. The wind blew away the sand, allowing Xia De to see the meaning of the runes. He held the pocket watch with his left hand, but did not read the meaning of the line of runes immediately.

【You are hesitating.】

"Yes. For some purpose, trying to seduce a girl to fall in love with me, this is not right."

"She"'s gentle laughter was still clear even in the sandstorm at this moment:

【Maybe you can convince yourself like this: everything is for justice.】

"But this is not my justice."

He stared at the runes under his feet with his head down, and only said softly after a while:

"Adele Isabella."

Stepping back two steps, in the soft white light radiated upward by the runes, the great witch of time who was slowly getting up while holding the hem of her skirt gradually turned from a phantom into a solid body.

The blonde witch's long dress was not the same one as last time, but it was also provided by Xia De. She looked up at Xia De, the tear mole at the corner of her eye becoming more charming because of her smile.

Adele Isabella endured the joy of reuniting with Xia De again and showed a gentle smile at Xia De:

"See you again, have you been doing well recently?"

She herself was only in her twenties, but she saw Xia De's troubled mind at this moment at a glance:

"Are you encountering difficult things? It doesn't matter, it's normal to not be able to learn the principle of regression for the time being."

She thought Xia De was troubled because of his studies, but Xia De shook his head:

"I have already mastered the principle of regression... I can't demonstrate it here, only the relic long sword can let me use that move. I am worried about other things now."

"Mastered?"

A slightly surprised expression appeared on the witch's face, but then she asked with some pity:

"Have you been doing very badly recently? If you weren't facing one enemy after another, you wouldn't have learned this move."

She did not doubt that Xia De was lying:

"Then what are you worrying about? Can I help?"

"I... I am facing a battle that might not be winnable at all... Let's solve this task first, Miss Isabella, after this task is over, I want to talk to you carefully."

The blonde lady nodded gently and wanted to take the initiative to retreat to the wall, but hesitated and opened her arms to hug Xia De:

"The only meaning of my existence now is to help you. So don't worry, I will listen to all your troubles, Xia De, I have always been here."

Only after saying this did she retreat to the wall and smile at Xia De. Xia De showed a slightly surprised expression, but soon nodded to her and walked toward the Saint-Trelan Square, which was half buried by yellow sand, while holding the long staff.

For a moment, Adele Isabella felt that what she saw was a martyr walking toward the end.

Lifting her shoes, footprints were left on the fine, wind-blown quicksand, and the black coat was casually thrown off to cover the footprints behind her.

Because he came with the mood of the prelude to the god-war, this time Xia De's expression was exceptionally serious.

And as he moved forward, a high and distant female voice came from the high sky. This voice was like a soprano in an opera troupe practicing her voice, and also like the prelude to some deep hymn.

It was just that no enemy appeared in front of him or around him.

【Above.】

"She" said softly, so Xia De looked up.

Under that dim yellow sky, a huge, pure white glowing figure gradually appeared.

The figure's body was extremely slender, with three pairs of huge white light wings spread out on its sides. The spread of the left and right wings even exceeded its body length, and the tail end below where the feet of this evil thing should have been was a slender tail.

It looked a bit like a dragonfly, but more like a humanoid angel. In addition to those six wings, countless pure white light spots around the body were densely scattered under the sky.

"Is this an evil thing that appeared because of the disaster of 'light' this time?"

The "angel" was at an extremely high position, so Xia De couldn't see whose familiar face it was, and could only roughly estimate its size to be about half the size of Saint-Trelan Square.

And it was not completely stationary. When it slowly "wriggled" and flew to the point where it just blocked the black sun with its own light, the two short hands below the tail end, which should have been fused with the middle pair of wings, pointed at Xia De below together.

Ang~

Accompanied by another cry, hundreds of light beams shot out from the dense light spots swept across the entire square from left to right.

In the yellow sand that was stirred up, the golden shield protected Xia De, who could not leave the square area, but those light beams just swept across once and disappeared without even touching the houses around the square.

The "angel"'s wings continued to flap, and a pure white light whip was thrown out by its right hand. Xia De did not intend to dodge at all, switched to holding the long staff with his left hand, and also threw out the 【Chain of Seven Sins】 with his right hand.

The pitch-black chain emitted a faint light in the sandstorm, and that light whip was actually solid. After the two came into contact, they were firmly bound together, and then the light that was enough to melt everything slowly dyed the rune chains on the Chain of Seven Sins with light:

"What?"

Ang~

After another cry, the angel held a light ball in its left hand and threw it to a higher place, and then the light ball exploded with light like the sun, illuminating the entire Saint-Trelan Square with special light even more intense than Moon Bay City today.

Isabella, who had experienced a complete doomsday, waved her hand to sprinkle a black curtain to block the light. This was something no one in the "Present · Sixth Era" could do, and even Xia De couldn't do it.

She looked at Xia De in the center of the square with worry, and Xia De indeed could not use dark arts because he could not carry the 【Calamity Card · Shadow of the Deep Sea】.

The witch wanted to help, but the next moment in that light, the dragon roar that she hadn't heard for a long time exploded in the strong wind—

Roar!

The white light all over the sky gathered in one place. Xia De, whose clothes were melted by more than half, whose hair was almost completely gone, and even whose surface skin was glowing, retracted the chain, and then threw a thunder spear toward the sky.

The thunder spear was scattered by the "angel" waving its long whip, and the Yggdrasil Staff held high at this moment gathered light due to the miracle of the dragon language spell, and then turned into a pure white great sword... That sword was much shorter than the staff.

【Outlander, do not continue to directly touch these lights, otherwise you will also turn into light.】

"She" in his ear reminded him softly. Xia De danced the great sword in his hand and collided with the whip that struck again. Because of the same light nature of the sword and the whip, the Yggdrasil Staff did not have any abnormalities this time, but Xia De was pushed almost to the edge of the square by the huge force:

"Miss Isabella, I need your help this time!"

He stated his request:

"This thing can fly, I can't deal with it myself, please help me."

Facing something he really couldn't defeat, Xia De never hesitated to ask for help. Besides, since the Father of the Tree allowed Miss Isabella to appear here, she could actually be considered a part of Xia De's power.

"Alright."

Looking at Xia De's body that looked like it was half "melted" with worry, the blonde witch took Xia De's hand and flew directly into the sky, not forgetting to remind Xia De:

"This thing is one of the most troublesome evil things in the doomsday era, don't expect any power related to light to kill it. Even if your moonlight is pure, it won't work, you need darkness... Do you have the power of 【Darkness】?" ===== CHAPTER 2405 =====

She led Xia De rapidly upward, approaching the "Angel," and did not forget to remind Xia De:

"This thing is one of the most troublesome Xiewu of the Doomsday Era. Do not expect any power related to radiance to be able to kill it. Even if your moonlight is pure, it won't work. You need darkness... Have you mastered the power of 【Night】?"
