Chapter 576: Declaration of war, declaration of war!
The [Time Barrier] did not last long. Apart from Archmage Muzel and Taisai in the city who had some sense of it, the only people in the entire Kovale continent who could sense the change of time were the gods who happened to cast their gazes towards where Mo Cheng was.
Some gods just took a look and then paid no more attention, while some gods tried to issue oracles to their churches or followers, asking them to slightly increase the threat level of the city in the desert.
Of course, some gods sensed something from the breath of stopping time and immediately became furious.
"Blasphemer!"
Deep in the Stokato Mountains, Elrod, the god of blood sacrifice worshipped by the barbarians, sensed Mo Cheng's breath at this time. From this breath, he sensed the scent of his own divinity.
The godhead was forcibly split in half by unknown damage.
"Find him, destroy his city, sacrifice all lives, and make that blasphemer's city wail in blood!"
The order of the blood sacrifice god Elrod forcefully penetrated into the brain of the barbarian priest. Following the priest's order, the barbarians began to roar fanatically, raised their weapons and gathered their men, and marched towards Mo Cheng's city.
They would drag the city into blood, destroy it and offer it as a sacrifice to their gods.
…
In the desert, a figure was flying backwards rapidly, faster than the speed of sound. Before Mo Cheng could even react, he had already smashed countless rocks.
"Ouch, what the hell!"
When Mo Cheng climbed out of the huge pit, he no longer knew how far he was from the city.
He pressed his sore neck, wondering if he had bumped into something before. "Although I know that my actions just now were excessive, this is also a bit exaggerated."
Mo Cheng was bounced out after the [Time Barrier] was lifted.
Although in the material world, the [Time Barrier] only lasts for a moment, but in terms of Mo Cheng's sense of time, he stopped the city for a full five seconds.
As if cutting the entire city off from the continuous time of the material world, Mo Cheng used his own strength to maintain the [Time Barrier] to resist the continuity of time.
Then when the [Time Barrier] came into contact, he was bounced out by the reaction force of the world.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have made the [Time Boundary] so big."
Feeling the pain in his body, Mo Cheng couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He had used the new power he had just obtained to the maximum extent, and his physical strength and magic power were almost exhausted.
Activating the active skill [Repair] of [Guardian Greaves], this holy weapon from the Almighty Sect immediately exuded a sacred aura. Along with the sacred and clear light, Mo Cheng's physical strength and mana were directly restored out of thin air.
At the same time, the aches and pains in the body were also repaired and eliminated. The brain, which had seemed a little groggy due to excessive consumption of mana, felt refreshed as if it had eaten a mint candy.
After experimenting with the [Time Barrier], Mo Cheng already had some ideas on how to use this new power.
The [Time Barrier] grants him five seconds of completely undisturbed output time, and this is not like a game, as outside the barrier there are skills such as [Meat Hook] and [Devil's Claw] waiting to support him at any time.
In fact, Mo Cheng felt that he was fully qualified to call himself "Seitaro". He had the purple back spirit, the five-second time stop, and even the punch power that could pierce the chest.
At this time, the system panel gave a prompt again.
["Faceless Void" template completed, detect the existence of Aghanim's Crystal, obtain the new skill "Anti-Time Travel"]
(Anti-Time Travel: Magic Crystal provides new skills
Time Walk can be used within 1.5 seconds of landing. When cast, it will reverse Time Walk and return to the last casting location. It will not affect health or trigger the Scepter effect.)
Mo Cheng stood where he was, then took a step forward. It was clearly just a normal step, and the estimated distance would not exceed one meter. However, when Mo Cheng's step landed, he was already a thousand meters away.
Taking another step, Mo Cheng returned to his original position as if it were an illusion.
The whole process seemed like some kind of magic trick, but only Mo Cheng, the person involved, knew that he had indeed taken a step across a distance of a thousand meters.
Mo Cheng did not stop there, because he seemed to feel something. He took another step forward, and this time he appeared only three meters away.
But in the original place, Mo Cheng was still there.
This is not a clone or an illusion. Mo Cheng can feel that when he uses [Time Travel], he appears in two places at the same time.
Every time you use [Time Travel], it's like there are two choices : one is to remain in the original place, and the other is to appear at the destination.
Just like [Schrödinger's cat], before Mo Cheng himself made observations and choices, he was in two states at the same time: [at the original location] and [at the destination].
“Am I the cat?”
Shaking his head, Mo Cheng did not think too deeply about whether he was the cat in the box. For him, it was enough to know how the skill worked and what its effects were.
As for the rest, he would figure it out sooner or later.
When Mo Cheng used [Time Travel] to return to the city, Margaret was looking for him all over the city. Before Mo Cheng asked, she pulled Mo Cheng to the palace.
Then in the hall of the Golden Palace, Mo Cheng found out why Misha was so anxious to find him.
This is definitely not good news - the Kingdom of Nabi officially allied with the Kingdom of Minangka and declared war on Andair, which only had one city left.
There is not just one piece of bad news. The Kingdom of Bezek has also declared war on Andair and has already gathered its troops.
The reason for the declaration of war was that the steel cruise ship of Viscount Nidas, an Aundair noble, attacked Napa Harbor. The hereditary Earl Mo Cheng of Aundair destroyed a unit of the [Flame Legion] and abducted nearly 100,000 residents of the city of Rothal.
The reasons given by the Kingdom of Bezek were very sufficient. Unless Andel punished Viscount Nidas and Count Mocheng and paid sufficient compensation, Andel would be the only one to be blamed for this war.
These conditions were simply beyond the reach of Andel at the moment, and Mo Cheng was too lazy to even look at what the other party's requirements were. Andel and Bezeko had disliked each other for hundreds of years, so one or two things wouldn't make a difference.
Mishas sat on the throne and smiled bitterly, "We are now discussing how to deal with this situation. To be honest, it is difficult for Aundair to withstand a war right now."
"No need to bother."
Mo Cheng pushed his glasses up with his fingers. "If they want to start a war, then let's fight. Just treat it as a test of the strength of the newly formed legion in advance in order to retake Fairhaven."
