Free Web NovelChapter 965: Chapter 837: Incoming Attack
The deep darkness, here there is no concept of sky, overhead is pitch black.
Longbei and Meizike moved forward, stepping on shattered earth, the cracks on the ground were so obvious, yet their feet could truly feel the solidity of this earth.
Perhaps this is no longer earth, but the last remains of this world fragment, once part of a complete world’s corpse fragment.
A bolt of lightning appeared out of the darkness.
The flashing light illuminated the darkness.
This kind of lightning struck continuously around Longbei and Meizike as they advanced.
Lighting up the deep darkness for them.
But eerily, although the lightning struck, there was no thunder accompanying it.
All that existed was the silence merging with the darkness.
With the occasional flashes of light, there was nothing in the deep darkness.
Only at the far end of their vision, that white mist wall.
In the deep night, the faint glow emitted by that white mist wall was so conspicuous. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"How did this world fragment end up like this?"
Longbei couldn’t help but ask as he looked around, though he didn’t expect an answer.
He was asking himself.
The corpse of this world fragment was too clean.
And his voice did not pass through the air, but directly entered Meizike’s ear through his Magic Power.
"Just like white bones." Meizike, walking beside Longbei, also couldn’t help but say.
His voice didn’t sound out either, but directly appeared in Longbei’s mind.
This space had no medium for sound transmission.
Hearing Meizike’s words, Longbei quickly nodded: "Yes, just like the white bones after a person’s death, the flesh, and all organs have turned to dust over time."
"So it’s very strange, although the Mist randomly grabs world fragments, it wouldn’t grab such a ’fragment of bone’, right?"
This was the part that Longbei couldn’t figure out.
The Mist would randomly snatch up those broken world fragments from the starry sky.
Though most of these world fragments are in a state of death, to describe it as a corpse.
At least these fragments still have flesh.
But the fragment they were in now was just bones, truly useless.
Calling it a world fragment, it was more like an aimlessly drifting meteor in the starry sky.
There was no air, nothing related to the world existed, causing even normal sound to not be transmitted. freewebnσvel.cѳm
This was the question Longbei pondered upon entering this world fragment.
Although he rarely thinks.
Since the first world fragment they experienced was a Death World, the fragment had no value, so they leisurely took a tour, explored, and left.
This was the second world fragment they had ventured into.
It was right after Kane had just sent a message.
"Could it be that the Mist made a mistake when grabbing it?"
The lightning struck again, its light illuminating the look in Meizike’s eyes as he glanced at Longbei.
Seeing Meizike’s gaze, Longbei could only shrug his shoulders: "Alright, alright, I was just casually saying that, but I really can’t think of a reason."
"Was it after being grabbed that it became this way?"
There was a hint of doubt in Meizike’s voice.
This was what he thought might have happened.
Hearing Meizike’s words, Longbei couldn’t help but start thinking.
The surrounding lightning’s flashing light illuminated their thoughtful faces.
"It might really be possible when you put it that way."
But their conversation ended there because they had already crossed this completely dead world fragment that had become a meteor.
They arrived beside the Wall of Mist.
The two of them didn’t say much, directly passing through it, returning to the Mist.
Before leaving, Meizike had already conjured a marker and tossed it into the air of the fragment.
As they entered the Wall of Mist, the darkness behind them was engulfed by the pouring mist.
As for why this world had become this way, the two didn’t further discuss it.
Because there were too many possibilities.
...
At this moment, within a world filled with bones.
Lilulu shimmered with rainbow light, her entire attire transformed into the Queen of a Fairy Tale World.
The Magic Staff in her hand had turned into a majestic Scepter embedded with various Gemstones.
A luxurious Queen’s Crown adorned her head.
She waved the Scepter in her hand, and dense rainbow-colored comets began to fall from the sky with her motion.
They landed among the heaps and heaps of bones below.
As the rainbow comets descended, these bones gathered together with each comet to form a giant skeletal Giant.
Once gathered, they began moving around, with more and more bones converging onto them as they moved.
These skeletal Giants multiplied and soon filled the entire area.
And below the area, a deep depression began to appear, revealing the land beneath.
Surrounding bones continued to slide upwards, gathering on the skeletal Giants one by one.
Until a golden glow flashed from below.
"Hee hee! Lilulu found it."
With the appearance of the golden glow, Lilulu instantly appeared above, her Scepter waving as a shining object flew out from the depression.
The skeletal Giants also began to collapse.
Condensed into numerous small skeletal peaks surrounding the area.
The item flashing with golden light is a statue resembling a totem.
Engraved upon it are countless incantations, seemingly chaotic yet somehow orderly.
After acquiring this item, Lilulu stepped out of her Fairy Tale World Queen image, appearing beside Kreya not far below, amidst a flicker.
At this moment, beside Kreya was a kobold evil spirit, resembling a mummy.
This evil spirit had reached a golden pinnacle in strength, just a step away from divine ascension.
However, cloaked in black and white flames, the spirit showed it was completely under Kreya’s control.
"Did you get it?"
Upon hearing Kreya’s question, Lilulu nodded and handed over the totem statue.
Kreya examined the totem statue in her hand, looking it over: "This should be it. It feels like a divine artifact. Let’s have Kane identify it later."
Saying this, Kreya picked up the pager at her waist and sent a message to Kane.
Then she tossed the statue into the guild’s warehouse.
Looking at the kobold beside her, Kreya conjured black and white flames in her hand and casually swung them in a semicircle.
A door of death, made from withered bones and various skulls, materialized from within the black and white flames.
With a creaking sound, the door opened.
The mummified kobold evil spirit entered, bewildered.
Kreya closed the door, and the black and white flames ignited, causing the door to vanish from the spot.
Clapping her hands, she said, "This world fragment is dealt with. Though it’s a fragment of a Death World, the gains are not bad."
Saying so, Kreya glanced at the colorful magic stone in her hand, which was one-third complete.
This was the spoils obtained from eliminating the mummified kobold earlier.
That kobold was already preparing for divine ascension, hence the acquisition of one-third of the colorful magic stone energy after defeating it.
Yet, since it was merely preparing and not a complete ascender, the harvest amounted to just this.
But to have such gains in a piece of a Death World fragment already counts as good luck.
Not to mention acquiring a divine artifact, though its attributes and usefulness in tri-colors are unknown.
"Indeed, Lilulu and Sister Kreya’s luck isn’t any worse than Kane’s alone, hehe."
Thinking of their gains, Lilulu cheerfully remarked.
Kreya ruffled Lilulu’s head with a smile, conjured an array in her hand, and then a fog ball appeared, which she tossed into the sky.
Inpouring mist enveloped them.
...
Kane looked ahead.
The sky there had turned into a stinking cloud of fog, emitting a ghostly green and sallow hue.
The stench in the air became increasingly pronounced, already at a point where filtration was necessary.
The ground, gritty like sand, swept by gales, blew the stench towards Kane.
A mask resembling a gas mask appeared on Kane’s face.
Yet his eyes remained fixed straight ahead.
Huge footsteps sounded from afar.
The sound grew ever closer.
An enemy, having long locked onto Kane, was rushing towards his position.
Yet Kane maintained his normal pace, continuing forward.
Just then, the beeping sounded in his mind.
Hmm?
The beeping again.
It’s likely Kreya and the others.
Thinking this, Kane stopped, retrieved the device at his waist, and flipped through it.
The earlier beeping was from Longbei and the others.
It seemed to be sent to everyone, displaying the bizarre situation they encountered at their second world fragment.
A totally useless world fragment?
Never mind, not the right time to ponder now.
Then he looked through the recent message from Kreya and the others.
Nice, not bad indeed.
After separating, did Lilulu and Kreya’s luck also surge?
It must be Longbei passing the bad luck; wonder what his expression would be seeing this message.
Too bad it can’t be witnessed live.
In the shattered Death World, acquiring a divine artifact and an enemy on the brink of ascension.
And a former Evil God at that.
Seems I need to step up too.
Smiling, Kane returned the device to his waist.
The footsteps grew clearer at his ear.
Boom! Boom!
At this moment, Kane raised his head, his eyes, through the gas mask, seeing far ahead.
The smile on his lips faded there.
Dark green mixed with sallow poison clouds drifted overhead.
Various bizarre flying creatures in the toxic clouds twisted and hurtled towards Kane.
Below, multitudes of deformed, pus-oozing monsters sprinted towards Kane en masse.
The enormous figure causing all this had appeared at the horizon’s end.
