Free Web NovelA howl of agony rolled out like a giant whale from the abyss.
That pale light instantly veiled the last area of the Leviathan, and the curse chains, weakened, shattered everywhere. The massive flesh-and-blood body, like an aircraft that had completely lost power, twisted and accelerated as it plunged toward the ground.
Boom—
The entire First Chamber trembled.
Everyone struggled to stay on their feet.
The surrounding flesh walls kept collapsing and cracking, like you’d slit open the belly of a whale packed with swamp gas and organs. Vast gouts of blood and mangled meat blasted outward.
Everything around them was dissolving!
Everything was being destroyed!
And from the rift, the pair of eyes that stared at Lynn filled with murderous intent in an instant.
Crack—
A thunderous snap.
The teeth that bound her arms were suddenly torn apart by that overwhelming force, but just as her hands were about to break free, Lynn’s massive, dexterous tongue—like a tentacle—instantly wound around her arm again.
This time it wasn’t just the tongue. Black chains clinging to his tongue coiled as well!
Clack—
The tongue and chains tightened in an instant.
[Ping! The Fallen Angel's anger toward you +5]
[Ping! The Fallen Angel's anger toward you +6]
At the same time, Lynn’s expression turned cruel, mocking. The huge tongue sneered coldly:
"Matriarch… is about to blow!"
Boom————
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the power contained within the Leviathan triggered a chain reaction. Distorted, blinding energy burst from every part of its body. Countless cracks spidered across it, and dazzling light swept through the entire First Chamber in an instant.
Amid that ravaging radiance,
the only thing visible was Lynn’s enormous tentacle stretching toward Hei Xianyue and the others at the same moment. His timing was perfect; he had almost instantly wrapped the long tentacle around those girls and yanked them toward him.
He intended to use the undying curse to take the hit for everyone!
Outside, the enormous Leviathan began to disintegrate mid-fall, before it had even completed its descent.
Boom—
A massive energy fluctuation swept the battlefield in an instant, forcing the four Root-level beings to resist the terrifying shock.
"Damn it!"
The Desire Mother Tree braced rigidly against the titanic energy streams. The enormous Flesh Tree Realm was blown apart into tatters in a heartbeat.
The Leviathan’s fall would, without doubt, inflict a critically detrimental effect on the entire conflict.
And that meant, unless that Cyber Ascender was suppressed by curses in advance, they could no longer hope to win this war.
Her gaze flickered, and she immediately wrapped herself in thick flesh-and-blood vines.
But that was never truly her aim.
What gave her pause was that, as one of the Leviathan’s creators, she felt no emotional fluctuation from the Flesh and Blood Dominator amid this violent explosion.
It was as if the Leviathan’s destruction was not unacceptable to him.
Her eyes wavered.
Almost at the same time, the Dominator’s hoarse voice echoed into her consciousness.
"You’ve already cracked the external structure of the Colossus's Tower, haven’t you, Mother Tree?"
The Desire Mother Tree, enduring wave after wave of assault, flashed back:
"No. I could not possibly have the energy to crack the tower’s inner structure while fighting at such intensity."
But the Flesh and Blood Dominator, as if not hearing her reply, rasped:
"Is that so? Mother Tree, you should see the situation clearly by now. I’ve already lost one Leviathan, which means we’ve lost a Root-level combat asset. But I can leave at any time—you cannot. You descended with your true body."
"So if you want to live, ensure our victory as much as possible, or at least a draw. The tower in your hands is our only chance to reverse the tide. It’s up to you whether you seize it."
The Desire Mother Tree hesitated: "What do you mean?"
The Dominator’s enormous eyeball rotated slightly, his filthy will rolling out like thunder as he transmitted his thought.
"Remember those favored ones we forced into that tower before? Whatever happened to them will also happen to every living thing present here. The only thing we can be sure of is—"
"Until that brain fully awakens, the Dark World will not completely lock onto her, which means at least for now—"
"Her stature, at least in this stage, surpasses ours."
…
Boom—
A tremendous roar swept the dark skies.
Countless chunks of flesh rained down like a bloodstorm, falling in all directions and striking the ground like shells.
The earth was pocked with craters. Directly beneath the colossal Leviathan, a vast hollow had been blasted out.
Sir Aiwen gritted his teeth and withstood the violent shock.
He abruptly mobilized his psychic energy and craned his head toward the explosion in the high sky. When he saw it, his pupils constricted in an instant.
"That is…"
High above, among the swirling debris of the disintegrated Leviathan, floated a large, cracked chamber that had not been shattered by the Leviathan’s explosion.
Countless black plumes fluttered around that chamber,
coalescing into a vast, illusory wing.
It was as if the flurry of feathers had, at the critical moment of the blast, blocked the Leviathan’s horrific energy leakage and protected part of its internal structure.
And the section left relatively unscathed was precisely…
the First Chamber where Lynn was.
Inside the suspended First Chamber, Lynn suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing the surroundings clearly, he immediately understood what had happened.
"Go!"
With almost no hesitation, Lynn dispelled the Death Bind chains that had been cast on him, then used his massive head to violently smash against the cracked First Chamber’s outer shell.
"As expected of the Matriarch, unbelievably strong! Truly too strong!"
Lynn swept up the Silver Fantasy from within the flesh and Hei Xianyue and the others, and burst out of the First Chamber, plunging directly into the black plumes spiraling around it.
He squinted his enormous eyes, which had clearly grown heavy with seriousness.
He had underestimated the Fallen Angel behind the Plague Doctors. He never expected that, in such a short time since waking, she could react so quickly—forcefully transmitting power and yet still managing to protect the area they occupied.
