Volume 8: Glass Chapter 704: Star God Abandons
February 14th, year 1 of the Pale Calendar.
The netherworld is dead silent, with only ashes left.
All the clan members and creatures from the Netherworld disappeared along with Madam Rose.
It is foreseeable that there will be no life here for a very long time in the future.
Because those ashes will eventually cool and turn into endless crystals.
The high concentration of pollution from King Cang is enough to corrode and destroy any life that attempts to exist here.
The Netherworld might be called the "Cang World" or the "Death World" by the mysterious world in the future, but Chen Lun didn't care about that...
The next morning after returning to Wonderland.
Chen Lun received a letter.
The messenger surprised him greatly, for it was actually a man-made golem with high-level strength. At the same time, it looked like a basketball-sized stone ball, made entirely of mythical stone, with turquoise crystals growing on the surface, and it wore a crystal mask.
The first time he saw the messenger, Chen Lun thought of Clarenso, the "God of Murals". As expected, this messenger was created by Mr. Jing Yao.
"Please give me something delicious, sir. I'm a little hungry."
The messenger of the god of the miniature mural spoke.
His voice was somewhat childish, and he spoke in the ancient Yanita language.
"Can energy crystals be used?"
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, finding it interesting, and began to communicate with him in the Yanita language as well.
"Yes, I like it very much."
The messenger floated in the air, nodding foolishly.
"I'd like to eat more if I can."
"no problem."
Chen Lun smiled.
He first took out a handful of finger-sized dragonite and azurite. The messenger accepted them all and swallowed them as soon as he opened his mouth.
Then he chewed, making a crunching sound and humming with satisfaction.
The strange thing is that even the energy of the azurite did not explode in his mouth.
Chen Lun could only attribute the reason to the particularity of the messenger himself.
He then "poured" a small pile of crystals into the air, using gravity to keep them afloat. The Messenger saw this and spun around in delight, like a ballerina.
Chen Lun then opened the letter with a smile and started to read it.
In his letter, Mr. Jingyao first congratulated Chen Lun for eliminating another old Seven Gods, and then conveyed a message on behalf of the Brilliant Queen... Jessica Philomena finally decided to give up the throne and offer up the authority of the stars.
"Oh, I guess it was the death knell of Madam Rose that frightened Him... Otherwise, how could the Radiant Queen give up so easily?"
Chen Lun had a hint of smile on his face.
"But it's good, it saves me from having to kill the gods."
In the short time it took to read the letter, the messenger had already eaten up the energy crystal that was several times larger than his size. Seeing Chen Lun put the letter away, he hurried over and spit out a ball of silver light from his mouth.
"Thank you for your hospitality, sir. I was planning to hide this thing secretly, but you seem to be a good person, so I'll give it back to you."
The messenger said seriously.
"Thank you, you are very honest."
Chen Lun couldn't help but chuckle.
Although this messenger had a status equivalent to that of a high-level mythical creature, his intelligence seemed to be only at the level of a child. After eating and completing his mission, he politely said goodbye to Chen Lun and immediately disappeared into the spirit world.
"Are you remembering your students?"
He looked at the place where the messenger disappeared and couldn't help but sigh.
Then, Chen Lun glanced down at the Only Divinity of the Stars in his hand and casually threw it into his mouth.
I thought to myself, 22 loads of firewood.
Among them, there are 11 parts of heresy, 5 parts of deep sea, 3 parts of flesh and blood, 2 parts of stars, and 1 part of conspiracy.
Then he opened the panel again and took a look.
The mission of becoming a god had already changed, and now it showed—
[True God Promotion Mission: Supreme Deed]
Current progress: 5/7 (The Dark Sun God "Mother" Galsworthy fell, the Conspiracy God "Old Man Buried" Bancrotoff fell, the Deep Sea God "Eternal Sleeper" Sebastian Pardo fell, the Flesh and Blood God "Lady Rose" Marialena fell, and the Star God "Glorious Queen" Jessica Philomena abdicated.)
"This leaves only Father Lie and Old Man Ni..."
Chen Lun's eyes were deep.
Needless to say, the next target is Montgomery!
…
…
…
Astral world.
The vast land is shrouded in the deep starry sky.
An extremely large sun emitting a dim light was hanging in the sky, and at this moment a hunched figure was walking towards them with a cane.
Tap, tap, tap…
The crutch hit the ground, making a dull sound.
The old man huddled in his ragged cloak hissed:
"Kingsley, you may be going crazy, but you are not deaf... I'm sure you heard the bells of Sebastian Pardo and Marialena's fall."
The astral realm was dead silent, with no response.
The scavenger sneered in a low voice.
"The King of Blue Clothes has inherited the unfinished great cause of destiny. He wants to take us seven gods as his prey, so as to complete the promotion ceremony and ascend to the throne of the new god... I have sensed that the position of Star God is vacant, and that useless person Jessica must have given up the fight. Next, it will be our turn."
The half-white sun was still hanging in the sky, emitting a dim light.
The entire star realm was silent, as if the old man was just talking to himself.
"Kingsley Wordswall!"
Montgomery shouted suddenly.
The roar echoed in the starry sky, creating waves of echoes.
There was a hint of anger in his tone, but even so, the sun remained silent.
"It seems that the pollution has muddied your brain! How can you still be the Sun God you once were?! You are just a piece of trash! A piece of trash waiting to lose control and go completely crazy!"
Montgomery cursed and raised his cane to the sky.
"Have you forgotten how Clave plotted against you in the past? Or have you forgotten where Matthew's Land went and how Andre died? It's all because of the Cangyi King, the heir of this Clave, that you have become what you are now... Now He even regards you and me as food for His promotion. Angela, Mia Mavis, and Conrad, the three true gods, will help Him. So, how are you going to deal with it?"
He said this with bursts of cold laughter.
“You can indeed be called the strongest, but you are just a poor fellow who failed to transcend the sequence. You only have authority and power, but you have to think twice before you take action, for fear of being contaminated and attacked. How pathetic, how pathetic, Kingsley…”
The silence remains.
No matter how Montgomery mocked and ridiculed, no matter how he tried to provoke the Suns, the other side remained indifferent.
A trace of gloom and unwillingness flashed in the scavenger's eyes.
Just at this moment.
His expression suddenly froze.
He raised his hand and saw that a circular mark on a small stone tablet emerged in the palm of his hand was undergoing a strange change. It twisted and slowly "folded" in the middle, and it turned into a Möbius strip symbolizing infinity!
Immediately, the infinity symbol suddenly lit up with a dazzling light.
Even the real Ni Weng, who was hiding in another place, felt extremely strong palpitations at the same time!
An invisible sense of destiny descended, enveloping Him like a shadow!
"Divination?!"
Montgomery was shocked.
He suddenly realized that the King of Cang Yi might have locked onto his true identity through the power of destiny, and might be about to take action.
Looking back.
At this moment, the incarnation of the scavenger seemed to see through the brilliant starry sky of the starry world and saw the lonely figure on the white throne of Tianyuan.
The two sides looked at each other, and the scavenger felt a burning pain all over his body, as if he was going to be burned to death in the next second!
"Damn it! Such a high position of power, even my resistance and power are unable to stop it, what kind of monster is the King of Cang Yi?! It has only been more than ten years, could it be that he has reached the level of Duke Huan Clough?!"
The ragpicker cursed inwardly.
He knew that if he did not do something, he would be the next true God to fall!
With the previous examples of the Eternal Sleeper and Lady Rose, He had no doubt about this.
The scavenger glanced and stared at the huge sun in the starry sky.
"You forced me to do this, Kingsley... Since I can't survive, then no one else can survive. If you don't take action, then you might as well die now!"
He suddenly raised his hand, and among the densely packed names on the stone tablet, the line with "Bankrotf" lit up dimly.
Immediately, a dim shadow of history appeared behind the scavenger.
An old man in a plain grey robe waved his sleeves. In the deep shadow, his grey palm passed by. The invisible but deadly force formed shadow lines full of murderous intent, layer upon layer, crossing the sun in the starry sky horizontally.
Buzz buzz buzz!
But in the next second.
Three figures in black robes and crowns suddenly descended from the sky.
It was the Dark Sun God who was promoted and was a follower under the command of the Fierce Father.
With murderous aura, they swung the shiny and sharp scimitars in their hands in unison, cutting out arcs in the dark night with twinkling stars.
The mythical powers of both sides collided in the starry sky, and a silent but mighty shock wave burst out in an instant, like a beautiful flash of cosmic light!
"You don't know your own limits."
The scavenger sneered.
He once again displayed the authority and power of the God of History and selected another one from the deceased gods recorded in the stone tablet.
The name "Galsworthy" then lit up!
Buzz!!
A dim light rose from the ground, distorting the vision.
Behind the scavenger, a lady wearing a spiked crown and shrouded in a black gauze robe appeared. The lower half of her face was also covered by the gauze, revealing only a pair of dark eyes that cast dead hatred towards the sun.
The lady raised her arm, extended her thumb, index finger and middle finger, and fixed them in front of her in a gesture similar to the letter "L".
A huge round of black flame directly surrounded the three Dark Sun Gods. At the same time, the lady raised her other hand and made a "7" that was completely different from the previous one.
Another deep black flame suddenly appeared from the edge of the starry sun, causing it to tremble violently.
It was as if the sudden attack of the Dark Sun power had become some kind of catalyst, instantly intensifying the original state of the Sun and causing it to completely lose balance - the originally half-white and half-black star turned completely black in just two breaths!
The sun, burning with rolling black flames, trembled violently, and then burst out from its body with dazzling white light like spears.
The three Dark Sun Gods groaned and retreated seriously injured.
In the dim light that symbolizes history, the old man in black robe and the lady in gauze skirt disappeared. When they finally left, they both still stared coldly at the sun.
The scavenger turned into nothingness in the strongest pure white light.
Montgomery didn't care that his avatar was destroyed. Instead, he laughed wildly and triumphantly. His voice echoed throughout the astral world and lingered for a long time:
“Hahahahahaha… Madness is the dawn of hope! Kingsley Wordswall! If you’re not crazy, how can I break the impasse…”
