Selene and the others were concentrating on intelligence, so it was understandable that they were trying to be very careful. That was the reason why the troop divisions and their distribution were so even.
Still, not everything was going unbelievably well. It had been exactly three days since Jas and the others had started clearing the huge city to the east.
The northern continent had been cleared, and the casualties were enormous. Almost two hundred thousand soldiers had been sacrificed to clear the continent.
The only reason for such a quick clearing was that the person who had managed to choose the God of Mischief Loki was on the northern continent. The old man had led an army of almost four hundred thousand with his own hands and managed to clear a continent, if not a huge one, in just a week and a half.
The eastern and western continents were close to being cleared, though close to being cleared did not an cleared. Hundreds of thousands of demon beasts and hundreds of ancient monsters still existed on these two continents.
The real trouble was in the southern continent, the continent where the Mountain Empire and other settlents were located.
Even though Perseus, Theseus and others were trying to help the continent, for so reason, the biggest influx of monsters was happening to this continent.
On top of that, the king himself, the reason why all the soldiers ca to this floor, was absent. They couldn't get any orders from Jas. Of course, it didn't take long for Selene and the others to inform everyone where Jas was and what he was doing.
The stress on everyone was only increased by the fact that help was needed on the outside.
Even Selene thought that she should get up and help Jas, but there was nothing that could be done, it was already a great danger for a goddess who had climbed to the 150th floor of the tower to co here, that is, to the 37th floor, the pressure on her was increasing every minute, she could not try to fight on top of it, that is, she could not get into a big war. After all, Selene had been assigned to protect the imperial palace and its contents.
'Lady Selene, you have visitors. They want to speak to you specifically, my lady.' Cordelia said suddenly, and with that, she caught Selene's attention.
Selene acknowledged Cordelia with a wave of her hand and summoned the visitors to the throne room.
Four n entered, wearing robes and their heads covered by the hoods of those robes. Yet Selene recognised them instantly. At last,t the expected had happened. At la, st the most arrogant and honourable race in the tower had shown their faces.
'May we know the whereabouts of Umbra, Lord Umbra, great goddess?'
Selene looked at the person at the front of the quartet rather puzzled when he asked this question and then asked 'Lord?', she did not expect such a word from them.
'You know who we are, let us protect him, we have already learnt...what happened, he is the emperor of our race whether he wants to be or not.' the robed person said and with that, hat an energy ca into Selene's face.
Every single person in the throne room was trying to understand what was going on but couldn't, but the fact that Selene was smiling like that ant that everything was fine.
'In the east of the empire, in the house of the duke of the east, in the city of the crow. He is trying to purify the city, you will find him there.' Selene said and then turned to Cordelia and said, 'Bring this master a map of the empire.'
Cordelia suddenly gave orders to several people took four maps and gave each of the four a map.
As the four of them quickly left the throne room, loud noises began to rise from outside and the voices began to fade away incredibly quickly.
Cordelia moved forward to ask the question that was on everyone's mind, the sun was setting and the last light of the day was coming in through the windows.
'My lady...who were those people?'
Selene's smile widened when Cordelia asked that question and then she turned to Cordelia and replied, 'Vampires.'
-----
Jas and the others had finally made it to the north side of the city. Each of them could see what was there with their naked eyes. They ca across a neat-looking king but an evil-looking person with crimson hair.
This person had two horns like other ancient demons, but he didn't have any wings.
Stay connected through empire
A ssage ca from Nyx himself, [Be careful Jas...This is an overpowered one. If such a ssage ca from Nyx, every single one of them had to be true, and that was what made everything dangerous.
Jas shook his head and then, thanks to the Void Pen, managed to tell the others, 'I got a warning from Nyx, no matter how angry we are, we need to be careful.'
Just then he was greeted with another ssage:
[Help is on the way Jas, hang in there.]
This ssage was from Selene herself. Even though Jas was surprised by this ssage and questioned who would be stupid enough to co here after all the intelligence, he still wanted all the help he could get right now.
'COMING!' Chao suddenly shouted, and with that, the ancient demon that had been standing still suddenly appeared in front of Jas.
Before Jas even realised what was happening, the ancient demon's fist appeared right in front of his face and Jas was hit incredibly hard in the face.
Jas had passed through the streets and buildings for almost a hundred tres. The impact of the attack on his face was so huge that there was simply no way to describe it easily.
[Auto Heal (Unusual ) ability flickering!]
[Auto Heal has reached its usage limit!]
[Ability level increases! The Tower grants you a new ability.]
[Healing of the Blood Lord (Legendary ) has been delivered to you by the tower's self!]
Jas barely opened his eyes as he sat up and read the ssages in front of him one by one. he could feel his rib cage cracking, and his left arm was directly broken.
[Healing of the Blood Lord(Legendary )
A direct evolution of the auto-heal ability. It allows the user to recover quickly from caustic, poisonous, striking effects.
The user will now be able to heal fractures and cracks automatically.
The user's severed body parts will be able to regenerate, even if it is INCREDIBLY slow. This will be an incredibly stamina-intensive process].
After a succession of system windows, Jas realised that the cracks in his body were starting to heal.
With each passing second, they were decreasing.
He suddenly stood up and looked at the ancient demon attacked by the trio of Ariel, Chao and Bai Fang. His anger was evident on his face.
Suddenly, he leapt forward and used dark steps and transition skills at the sa ti without even thinking twice. With that, his speed stat had surpassed the number 1000 for a few seconds. This was a number equivalent to a low-level god.
After reaching hyper-speed, he appeared in front of the ancient demon who was trying to avoid the trio's attacks and hit the ancient demon's face with his fist as hard as he could.
The acceleration from its speed was so huge that a sound that broke the sound barrier rose into the sky and a huge impact scattered around.
The ancient demon itself flew even further than Jas, passing through buildings and not stopping.
Even if every single person watching what was happening was surprised by what was happening, they couldn't even speak or praise Jas because of his facial expression, a strange creepiness could be said to describe Jas' facial emotion.
After this, the ancient demon ca back to the field and pointed at Jas, his face sared with blood.
'I'm going to take your life.' the ancient demon suddenly said, and Jas, hearing this, made a sign to the trio around him as if he realised that they had to use everything they had, and with that, everyone waited, ready to do anything.
Ariel imdiately activated her Lord's Knight ability, Chao completely transford into a Gryphon, and Bai Fang equipped his blades.
Jas instantly dispersed 8 Sacred Fire as much as possible and held the Godly Sword Lun, along with the huge energy dispersed by the colourful flas that spread almost six hundred tres.
He instantly activated his Aura of Chaos ability and strengthened the statuses of all his allies by 50%, weakening the opponent by 10%, and strengthening himself by 100% on top of that.
Jas now had a status point ranking that was even higher than the status points of soone ready to cross the 75th floor. This ability would only work for a minute, so they had to be quick.
Now their main battle was about to begin...of course, they thought it was the main battle, it was a pity that they did not know the truth.
