Chapter 1239: The a.s.sembly of the Strong Ones
Groups of people rushed toward the teleportation portal like a flood. There were initially many guards around the teleportation portal, but now it was empty because the soldiers who maintained order had withdrawn themselves.
The crowd of people pushed each other, shouting, calling, and crying intertwined. Everyone wanted to rush into the teleportation portal as soon as possible and leave this dangerous eastern continent.
Today was the last day before the teleportation portal would be closed.
Seeing that the light portal was gradually dimming, almost everyone’s eyes were red. They rushed forward desperately. Under the enormous impact, they trampled on each other. There was howling all over the field as blood flowed on the ground.
At this moment, what was crushed was not only life but also humanity.
In the end, the light of the teleportation portal was completely extinguished. Everyone’s hope was also extinguished.
On the other side of the continent, the Dragon Bright Empire general who commanded the soldiers to create despair, the Legion Commander Raymosad of the Human Coalition Army ‘Sea Soul’ Legion looked at the destroyed teleportation portal and remained silent. He knew the consequence of his order very well.
The Human Coalition Army’s highest commander, Lex the Great, understood the feelings of this old subordinate. He patted Raymosad on the shoulder and sighed, “It’s not you or us who are wrong, but this world and this era.”
Landbis and Sandro on the side also nodded. Although the Blue Glory Empire had been destroyed, Landbis still had loyal and famous generals like Sandro and Altos beside her, and she also had a large number of troops at hand. It was rare to have valuable experience fighting the Abyss. Landbis did not give up on the people at the last moment and fought a b.l.o.o.d.y battle with the Abyss. In the end, she successfully evacuated with most of the people, which made her prestige rise instead of drop. After withdrawing to the western continent, she still received considerable attention and became the first military advisor of the Human Coalition Army. Sandro served as the Human Coalition Army’s most important first commander of the White Sea defense line.
“Don’t blame everything on the era, because we are the ones who created this era.” A voice sounded behind him. Landbis looked at that person with a complicated look in her eyes.
If not for those changes, she had long been this man’s wife, but there was no ‘if’ in the world.
“Arthur…” Lex the Great’s gaze was also somewhat complicated. According to his strength, although he was the Holy Empire’s ruler, the Human Coalition Army Commander, he was not qualified to speak in front of this person because of his strength. He had far surpa.s.sed the level of ordinary creature. He needed to be looked up to. Only the few people at the peak stage could stand side by side with him.
Nonetheless, this man was his son.
“Call me ‘Chen Rui’, father.” Chen Rui smiled lightly, and he did not look at Landbis or Lex, but instead looked at the person beside him, “Maybe, what we can do is to create more hope with our own hands? Michael.”
It turned out that the one next to Chen Rui was none other than Michael, the leader of the 3 archangels who was rumored to have died following the White Cliff destruction some time ago!
Next to Michael was Gabriel. However, there was no Raphael anymore.
In the battle of the White Cliff, Raphael paid with his life to use the faith power acc.u.mulated on the White Cliff in order to trigger the outbreak of the Book of Creation. In the end, his soul and body were annihilated.
Of the 3 archangels, there were only 2 left.
Michael shook his head and said in a deep voice, “We can’t see anything other than hatred.”
This ‘we’ included Gabriel, who closed his eyes, always maintaining a kind of indifference as if she didn’t hear the conversation between the 2 parties at all. Chen Rui could vaguely sense that this indifference contains 2 completely different and complex breaths. On the one hand, it seemed to be a flame that might burn at any time. On the other hand, it seemed to be ashes that had already been burned out.
“Whether it’s hatred or hope, if the 3 rulers of Abyss really have the strength as you said, these are just bubbles.” The person who said this was another giant-level figure, Satan.
On the other side there were Zola, Catherine, Auglas, Paglio, Isabella… Apart from the missing Python, almost all the super powerhouses of the Demon Realm were gathered here. The same was true for the human world. With the lessons of the previous ma.s.s destruction of the eastern part, the super powerhouses in the human world all understood that this was a real critical moment of life and death. No one could stay out of it. Those who ignorantly think that these had nothing to do with their own wisdom and safety would only face a dead end.
With the lessons learned from the White Cliff, the dragons did not dare to neglect. They quickly evacuated from the Dragon Valley, came to Storm Island through the teleportation portal, and temporarily lived in the alchemy civilization ‘human world base’ originally built by Chen Rui. A large number of combat power, led by Pagris himself, came to the west bank of the White Sea.
The elf tribe and the hobbit tribe were severely damaged in the battle of the Blue Glory Capital. They reorganized their forces and dispatched 3 legions. The orcs tribe also sent the strongest Beamon Legion to join the army of the elf tribe.
As for the Demon Realm, the alliance of the 3 empires sent a real elite legion, with Catherine as the first commander and Gerant as the deputy commander, to the human world. The legion dispatched by the City of Stars far exceeded the previous one. The troops lost last time were also quickly remanufactured with various resources.
The destruction of the eastern continent of the human world was already unstoppable, and the Abyss monsters would definitely attack the western continent. The best barrier against the Abyss army was the natural barrier of the White Sea.
It was conceivable that there would be the most intense decisive battle at that time. Not only the Abyss monsters, but also the 3 rulers were likely to appear.
Michael did not refute Satan as usual, but he showed a sad expression as he said, “In terms of individual strength, we are indeed no match for the 3 rulers. In the battle of the White Cliff, Gabriel, Raphael, Raguel and I, with the help of the Holy Light Mountain’s faith power and the Book of Creation, went all out to activate the Great Bright Sword Formation against Sosbach, but we still failed in the end…”
“Even the Great Bright Sword Formation can’t suppress Sosbach?” Satan frowned, obviously knowing the power of the Great Bright Sword Formation.
“To be precise, it is the Great Bright Sword Formation in its incomplete form,” Michael said with a rhombus-shaped golden crystal full of cracks in Michael’s hand, “I asked Raguel to help me finish this sword formation at the cost of 1/3 of the power of faith I have acc.u.mulated in the Holy Mountain of Light. Unfortunately, it was not in its complete state at the time. It couldn’t even exert even half of its power, so it was finally defeated by Sosbach with the Red Flame Bow.”
“Wait a minute.” Satan narrowed his eyes, “If we can repair and complete this sword formation, maybe we still have a chance.”
Michael shook his head, “Even if it can be repaired, the Book of Creation that drives it has already fallen into the hands of the Abyss…”
“The Great Bright Sword Formation doesn’t have to be powered only by the power of creation,” Satan’s eyes shone brightly, “Don’t forget, there is also ‘destruction’.”
Michael’s eyes lit up, but Satan set his eyes on Chen Rui. Chen Rui understood Satan’s meaning and nodded, “I can give you that page of the Book of Destruction.”
What was needed most now was to strengthen their forces. Everything else could be ignored.
There was a gleam in Satan’s eyes, and he nodded.
The current elf prophet Kilanya frowned and asked Michael, “Sir Michael, I would like to ask a question. Is the Red Flame Bow you mentioned just now 1 of the 3 elf bows? In the elf tribe, the Red Flame Bow has been missing for a while, and only elf bloodline can activate it. Why can Sosbach use it?”
“It is indeed the Red Flame Bow. But it should have been corroded by the power of the Abyss. As for Sosbach… he appeared in front of us in the half-elf body.” With that said, a golden light flashed out from Michael’s finger, showing the appearance of Sosbach when he came to the White Cliff.
Seeing the half-elf, Kilanya blurted out, “Saul!”
“Who is Saul?” This time it was Chen Rui who asked the question.
Kilanya glanced at Chen Rui, “He is the husband of Empress Liv’s cousin, Princess Nancy, and the father of… Blanche.”
“Blanche’s father!” Chen Rui was taken aback. He remembered Blanche had said that her father went to the Nightmare Wilderness to search for the springwater of the Fountain of Vitality in an attempt to save the Tree of Nature. Unfortunately, he fell into the Nightmare Volcano, leaving no corpse left.
Unexpectedly, this dead ‘missing person’ had turned into Fear Lord and destroyed the Holy Light Mountain!
Blanche became Hatred Lord and her father became Fear Lord. Is there any connection or mystery here?
“By the way, the Red Flame Bow was also lost during that time…” Kilanya recalled for a while, showing a sudden expression, “Could it be that Saul stole the Red Flame Bow!”
“Ms. Kilanya.” Chen Rui thought for a while and said, “I also have a question, the Abyss… seems to be closely related to the elf tribe? When Michael and I fought against Quilliana, she happened to be in the area around the half elf’s cemetery. She also seems to have suffered strange injuries? Moreover, 20,000 years ago, Quilliana deliberately tried to open a portal in the elf tribe. She even consumed a lot of power to infect the Tree of Nature, creating a fallen chaos in the elf tribe?”
“The Abyss and the elf tribe are not directly related.” Surprisingly, it was not Kilanya who answered this question, but Satan, “It’s just because the Silver Moon Celestial Capital is located in a special location. This place… was a certain ‘battlefield’ back then. The Silver Moon Celestial Capital is located there by no accident.”
Chen Rui understood a little bit in his mind, and said, “So, the reason why the Silver Moon Celestial Capital is located in the Jade Forest Sea is that the Moonlight G.o.ddess deliberately set it up for some kind of residual power left over from the battlefield? So, the elf tribe has therefore become the focus of the Abyss?”
“If there is G.o.ddess’ blessing, this kind of problem will not exist. Unfortunately…” Kilanya sighed and did not stay on this topic. She changed her tone, “If it is confirmed that Fear Lord has fused Saul’s soul, then even if the Red Flame Bow is eroded by the power of the Abyss, it is fundamentally still the elf artifact, so it can be restrained in a targeted manner because we have 1 of the strongest 3 bows in our hands, the Moonlight Cloud Sea Bow. Although the celestial capital is destroyed, the artifact has its own power and has not been destroyed. When Princess Philly evacuated from the Blue Glory Capital last time, she went to the ruins of the celestial capital and found this bow.”
Michael nodded, then he shook his head again as he said, “That’s true, but Princess Philly’s strength is too weak to compete with Sosbach.”
“That’s right. The Moonlight Cloud Sea Bow is an inherited treasure of the elf empress. Generally speaking, it must be used by a real elf. Even the half-elf cannot exert its power. However, there is another kind of person who can use it.” Kilanya showed a confident look, and her eyes turned to Chen Rui, “That is, the person recognized by the Tree of Nature.”
