Chapter 222: Descent!

Chapter 222 Descent!

Arnold walked down the deserted street.

He toyed with the anti-magic shackles, looking up at the Star Demon Eye appearing in the sky.

Arnold revealed a smile, "He succeeded."

Bang!

The anti-magic shackles fell to the ground.

Arnold walked towards the city outskirts, away from Maple City.

This city was about to be destroyed.

Walking to the city gate, he suddenly stopped.

"Oh, almost forgot."

"I seem to have a daughter here?"

"Delice..."

Arnold shook his head, continuing towards the city outskirts.

"Seventeen years of kinship, this is also my offering to Lord Yubis."

He revealed a smile, striding towards the distance.

The guards at the gate were all shocked by the scene in the sky.

Along the way, it seemed no one noticed Arnold's figure.

Inside the City Lord's residence, Delice stood by the window, gazing at the Star Demon Eye in the sky, her eyes trembling.

She felt as if she were being watched.

Not just her, everyone felt they were being stared at by the Star Demon Eye.

Bodies stiffened beyond measure, difficult to move.

Torresta stood on the seventh floor of the Mage Tower, watching the scene in the sky outside.

A voice came from the darkness behind him.

"What happened outside? I feel a terrifying aura."

"You didn't happen to summon an Evil God, did you?"

"Anyway, you're going to die soon, let me out quickly."

Torresta quietly watched the Star Demon Eye, seemingly unaffected.

He turned to look at the darkness.

"Don't think about it, if Maple City is destroyed, you'll be buried alongside it."

Hearing this, the voice in the darkness not only didn't get angry, but secretly rejoiced.

"Finally know what place this is!"

"Next time, when seeing that kid, tell him to come to Maple City to find me."

"Someday, I will leave this damn place!"

Torresta left the seventh floor.

Harros looked at the Star Demon Eye in the sky, cursing under his breath.

"Bullshit god-sacrifice ritual, had to make such a huge commotion?"

Lilia looked up, stunned in place.

Harros waved his hand, power wrapping around Lilia.

She finally came to her senses, recovering her ability to move.

"What the hell is that thing?" Lilia asked in terror.

Harros said casually, "Evil God from beyond the heavens."

"Forget it, let's hurry and leave this damn place."

Shadows surged from Harros, sweeping up both of them, fleeing rapidly towards the distance.

Levi looked up at the Star Demon Eye, feeling his neck getting a bit sore.

Watching for so long, he also figured out something.

Isn't this thing just the stars hanging high in the sky within the Dream World?

When Levi first saw the one hundred and eight stars in the Dream World sky, he felt the stars looked like eyes.

Now it seems, this damn thing really is eyeballs!

"Is this thing Yubis?"

Levi thought in his heart.

But if the Star Demon Eye is Yubis.

Then what was that black claw that tore apart the Evil God projection just now?

Ots lowered his head, saying, "Do it."

The clergyman picked up the Holy Light Crystal, walking towards the light pillar.

He threw the Holy Light Crystal into the light pillar.

Instantly, the black light pillar bloomed with holy radiance.

The Star Demon Eye sensed something, shooting a beam of black light down from its eye.

As the Holy Light Crystal was thrown into the pillar, the power of the Star Demon Eye was gradually expelled from this world.

Everyone recovered their ability to move.

Levi looked up, a figure emerging within the falling black light.

Seeing that figure clearly, his pupils contracted sharply.

"Tier! Why is it him?"

An Evil God statue over six meters tall emerged in the black light, barely discerning that the statue's face bore seven or eight parts of resemblance to Tier.

Tier slowly opened his eyes.

The void faded, the world returned to perception.

In the instant of death amidst the explosion, his consciousness was carried away by a force. Always wandering within the void.

Until now, he finally returned to the world.

Tier became the vessel for the Evil God descending upon the world.

He could recall memories before death, but remained unmoved, as if losing all emotions.

The only thought in his heart was to let the Great Holy Spirit descend.

He lowered his gaze, diving toward the clergyman atop the altar.

The black storm twisted in his hand, morphing into a massive greatsword.

A single slash cleaved the air.

A hundred-meter span of black blade energy smashed into the earth.

The clergyman's complexion shifted abruptly, terror etched upon his face.

Such horrific power sent shivers of dread through him.

Otto stepped forth, face grim, drawing the sword from his waist.

He stomped the ground fiercely, leaping upward to intercept the descending black blade.

"Shatter!"

A wisp of cyan light flickered across the heavens.

The cyan blade shattered the black one, both energies detonating into gales that swept the surroundings.

Every professional upon the altar was blown away.

Countless ordinary folk nearby toppled over in waves.

Li Wei looked up, watching Otto's silhouette descend slowly.

He knew the extent of Otto's strength.

A Fifth-Rank Great Sword Master!

Yet, Tier had already seized the Evil God's power, becoming its incarnation.

Even a Fifth-Rank Great Sword Master seemed pitifully weak before him.

A mere slash of energy drawn carelessly by Tier.

Required Otto to exert every ounce of strength to break.

"Dark Storm!"

Tier lifted his left hand, black lightning bursting from his palm.

Thunderclap!

Black lightning struck mid-air, wind elements gathering wildly to coalesce into a dark storm.

Terrifying black lightning flashed incessantly within the swirling darkness.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The dark storm plummeted toward the crowd, engulfing the entire field.

Should this strike land, likely no ordinary person here would escape unscathed.

"Divine Sanctuary!"

The clergyman activated the altar's defenses.

The magic array carved upon the altar erupted with all its energy, instantly forging a colossal magical barrier.

"Hurry, get inside!"

Soldiers shouted urgently, driving commoners into the magical barrier.

There was no time to flee; the barrier was their sole path to survival.

Boom boom boom!

The dark storm clashed against the magical barrier, which shook violently under the impact.

Otto had barely touched ground before charging skyward once more.

"Wings of the Wind Sprite!"

Comas cast a spell, granting Otto a pair of wings.

Otto glanced down once, then launched himself at Tier in mid-air without turning back.

Upon the ground, all did their utmost to halt the dark storm.

To stop the Evil God Tier.

Feeble professionals could not meddle in this fight, only gazing tensely at the sky, praying for triumph.

Tens of thousands of civilians flooded the altar, rendering it unbearably cramped.

Li Wei stepped out from the altar.

Those nearby saw this and immediately squeezed in, occupying the space Li Wei had freed.

He stared at the sky, eyes heavy with gravity.

Otto was no match for the Evil God Tier.

While battling Otto, the Evil God Tier could still command the dark storm to assault the altar.

His aim was not to destroy the altar.

He merely wished to slaughter everyone.

To sacrifice them to the Evil God.

To hasten the Evil God's arrival.

Without assistance, Otto would inevitably fall.

If Otto lost, everyone else would perish as well.

Li Wei was the only soul present capable of intervening in this battle.

Yet he possessed but a single opportunity.

Failure meant being hunted relentlessly by the Evil God Tier.
