1162. Upper Ranks of a different Faction

There were no golems to broadcast this battle. Nobody wanted Chrona to hurry back, or Spatia to hurry up. While the group that had left Urth to level up took care of the upper ranks of the demons, Seth was left to deal with the upper ranks of a different faction.

“I would not have thought that you would be the one to open the door for me,” Seth greeted their informant with ...

1161. People are Flooding

---A few minutes earlier---

The quiet sound of fists clenching and teeth grinding could be heard across the southern wall of Delta. The men standing here, looking in helpless fury as their home was destroyed, were the last remaining soldiers of Chrona, who were left to guard the city wall until Spatia arrived.

Maybe it was wrong to call them the last remaining ...

1160. This arrogant little-!

“This arrogant little-!” Ichabot Longbottom cursed at the announcement that just echoed across the city, He knew it. He knew Minas Mar were just a bunch of power-hungry tyrants. He never liked their conceited leader.

“Quick, activate Iego! Strike both parties down!” he declared. Under the influence of Chrona's new representative he had managed to claw his way back into ...

1159. Yellow Jack

---Delta---

Quick steps echoed in the decaying streets of the demon district. However, the excitement of the hunt only soothed his boredom slightly. His sharp eyes watched the little mantis demon sprint through the alleys, knocking and trying to open random doors.

All of these houses were long abandoned. Bragmomal’s subordinates had no interest in living in t...

1158. An example

“We've been had...” Fin mumbled disappointed.

The Lords of Minas Mar, the Team Captains, and co. were assembled in the meeting room at the top of the ancient magic tower. Leana had called in an emergency meeting. The Peddler of Ruin had finally revealed why he earned that nickname.

A god had been born and a legend had appeared on Urth. With this Urth's grac...

1157. Schemes in Delta

---Delta, Two days after the Final---

His heart pounded like crazy, but he knew of the importance of his mission. This was their only chance to secure the document, as everything was being prepared for the evacuation from Delta. Crouched, he silently snuck along the corridors of Chrona's embassy.

Tonight was the only chance when all documents were stored togeth...

1156. Somewhere Else(31)

---Far North of Delta---

The heavy steel door slammed open, letting a ravaging icy wind, blow snow inside the concrete corridor. A massive man bent down to step through the door and escape the blizzard outside. His heavy boots made loud noises as he stepped on the steel grate floor, announcing his return.

He stomped down the corridor and entered a small room to...

1155. Viper Dart- Award Ceremony

---A few hours earlier---

“I have just the right thing you need!” she exclaimed, before vanishing to the back of the shop. Tano'Mol had still not returned from Thres yet. In actuality, there had been no more contact from Adam for the past weeks. Another point they had not yet the time to worry about, just like the situation in former Gamma...

Luckily, Sandr...

1154. Putrid Edge

After the tournament, there was a lot of stuff for Minas Mar to do. The Pythian Village had suffered a lot of damage. Although it was not as great of a concern to Minas Mar, as the place was not meant to be permanent in the first place, they had to prepare emergency shelters.

There were still many guests without the permission to enter Little Gamma, who wished to stay and watch...

1153. The Prize

During the tournament, Seth had taken on two contractual obligations to make items. He promised Nam to create an item to help him, in exchange for his service and the blueprint for said item and the other was the grand prize of the tournament. Of course, the former had to wait until the winner received their prize.

“You want what?” the blacksmith asked again to make sure he...

1152. Ponze

If there was no way out for him, he would at least make his enemy's victory as bitter as he could. This was the decision Porco Bello made, moments before he concentrated all his power and fired a suicide attack into the ground. He decided to destroy as much of what they tried to protect, as possible.

The Flame of Burning Skies had eaten away too much of his strength to take dow...

1151. The Pig, Lyca, and Bazilith

He roared in rage as his enemy was once again shattered but quickly reformed itself. The great demon had quickly realized that he was actually fighting a golem, but it didn’t help soothe his anger. Again and again, he crushed the moving amor, again and again, it started rebuilding itself!

Porco had unleashed his full power to deal with the weird warrior quickly and to take re...

1150. Amazon Delivery

Just a moment ago he was glad that Python had taken her fight elsewhere, and now the whole city suddenly rocked like there was an earthquake. The arena just shook a little, but the scenes of the city were different, where some buildings hit by the shock wave simply crumbled away.

“Guys, what is going on there?” Seth asked through the comm link, forcing his voice to stay cal...

1449. Foundation Shattering

---Northwest of Python, a little earlier---

The beast charging at her with shit propulsion, Porco Bella, a being close to becoming a legend with a level of at least 170+, was suddenly forced to throw himself to the side. Embarrassing and clumsy, the massive boar rolled on the ground to get away for the stream of fire that had suddenly aimed for its head.

For th...

1148. Small Fist Pump

While everyone looked on in shock, still processing what just happened, Seth couldn't help a small fist pump when nobody was looking. Python not only epically stopped Yoma Ma, but she also did so outside the city. Whether this was sensible consideration or coincidence, didn't matter.

Despite seeming slow because of her size, Python was moving at an incredible speed. By the time...

1147. Ascension and Fall

Yoma Ma stood in the center of an ice field. Spikes of frozen water, up to 30 stories high, surrounded the place where he fought the shield of the Pythian Village. The twilight right after the sunset, when the first stars appeared and reflected in the ice, made it look almost ethereal. The barrier was sturdier than he expected, but it finally shattered.

Seeing the carnage insid...

1146. Cut Strings

Covered in emerald aura, the glaive bit into the torrential wind blade. For a moment both powers wrestled to gain the upper hand, but ultimately it was a simple attack struggling against an intelligent opponent.

Before the glaive could sustain any lasting damage, the Emerald Mountain Emperor angled the blade and deflected the mighty attack straight up in the air. The maneuver s...

1145. Super Ebola

Mina knew what she had to do. She had seen the power of the Saintess in the arena. The extreme adaptability of Gatris that was supposed to drive the opponent into despair, to crush their spirit until they accepted her mercy.

What was needed in this case was not overwhelming power, but a single quick and powerful attack that could end everything in one go. Mina had just the perf...

1144 On the Streets- Frozen Decay.

---Eastern Part of the Pythian Village---

Dust Crunched under his heavy boots as he reached the place Luf told him about. Looking around, he frowned grimly and slightly disgusted. The whole street was filled with withered bodies. Seeing the scene and connecting it with the crunch, made a shiver run down his spine. Maybe all the dust here was the bodies of victims.

1143. In the Skies(3)

The battle in the sky was now in full swing. On one hand, the two fleets had finally engaged in combat. the cultivator ship were firing formation cannons and energy weapon of their own, facing the beam of Epsilon.

While the ships were locked in aerial battle, they were surrounded by a cloud of individual combats. Many of the weaker cultivators had descended to the city, either ...

1142. Eclipse of Mercy

Mina had separated from the others, earlier and headed west. As the night fully descended, she abandoned the Alpeka and prowled the city on her own, traveling through the all-encompassing shadow of the night. The main battle happened in the distance, with the explosions and noise of battle only serving as a dampened background noise.

Luf had told her that the Saintess of Gatris...

1041. On the Street- Rooftop Conclusion

“This guy is really tough, contrary to his looks,” Marcel exclaimed half joking and half annoyed through his gritted teeth. He and Elza had started fighting together after her powerful entrance. His three original opponents had quickly fallen, but the man the ice queen had thrown over here was like a cockroach.

“Are you jealous? I'm used to jealousy. Not everyone can be s...

1140. Overload

The air was hot and heavy, It was hard to breathe, but the technicians did their best, running around the shield bunker, replacing foci, and cooling down formation lines.

“We can't manage for much longer! If we don't deactivate, the formation will melt, and the generator overheat! Everything here may explode!” a technician cried out to the golem standing at the control pane...

1139. On the Streets- Puppet Theater

“Fin, Bulko, Lyxiss, go to the north. The Golems report a huge number of unknown creatures rampaging over there. Mina, please go northwest. The Saintess of Gatris was seen going rampant,”

Luf distributed the remaining members of Yulcat's Fur to the hot spots on their map.

The super secretary with the moniker of the Wise was acting as the focus of the command center di...

1138.On the Streets- Hail Road

“Two to go”, were big words he came to regret. After killing his original opponent in a surprise attack, he now found himself to be the main focus for the two newcomers, and neither of them was weaker than the swordsman cultivator.

Since their comrade was dead, he now faced both of them at the same time. Maybe it wasn't the best idea to get rid of the weakest threat... but ...

1137. On the Streets- Blaze Road

A stream of fire shot through the gap between buildings, covering the whole street, not leaving any room for escape. Yet, when the flames subsided, there was a streak of road, untouched by the terrible flame.

At its tip stood a tall, lean man, wielding a sword. It was covered in a blue sword aura. He had split the attack, leaving him completely unharmed. Marcel had tried to end...

1136. On the Streets- Harsh Words

In the dim twilight of the setting sun, several adjacent streets had turned into a scene from a horror movie. Lifeless bodies suspended in semi-translucent goo, sticking to the pavement and buildings along the street.

Slimes, thousands of them, had flooded the streets and apprehended everyone who resisted. In the center of the calamity spanning several blocks was a short, quirk...

1135. On the Streets-Lunacy And Madness

“Haha! The Alliance leader slew the beast!” “The Snake is gone!!” “Once the leader is here, he will squash those ships with a flick of his wrist!” Cheers could be heard above the city. it was a wave that propagated through the crowd of cultivators after some saw the victory of the immortal.

Despite defending themselves against a deadly hail of artillery, the swarm o...

1134. In the Skies(2)

In the sky, the reinforcements from the arena engaged the swarm of cultivators.

Sickle and blade collided, spraying sparks everywhere. The dashing-looking cultivator already had a hard time fending off the attack from the flying striker, he couldn't even react when Bercy leaped off the mount and kicked him in the face with a satisfying crunch, turning his shapely nose into a sw...

1133. In the Skies

Dumm Ting was still on the main barge of the Silk River Sect, when the shield suddenly appeared again above them, throwing the cultivators in slight confusion. What was happening? Didn't they destroy the barrier? He gritted his teeth, had the Silk River's plan been foiled?

No, even if they managed to reinstate the barrier, they were already inside. Although Yoma Ma was probably...
