Chapter 1634: Chapter 1634: Death of the Bishop
He Ao watched the elderly in front of him, his expression unchanged.
He gripped the spear, using his Divine Sense to control his clothing, changing direction and charging towards the elderly in the sky.
At that mont, a fiery giant hand reached down from the sky, appearing almost instantly by his side.
The speed of the hand was incredible, about to grasp him in an instant.
He quickly increased his altitude to evade the grabbing hand.
But just then, fiery serpents suddenly erupted from the blazing gigantic body, attacking from all sides, entwining toward He Ao’s body.
He Ao lifted his head, staring at the enormous head ahead.
From this distance, the head towered like a mountain, just this single head was almost as tall as the over one-hundred-ter-tall figure he had seen before.
The two eyes of the head now resembled suns, suspended high in the sky, burning fiercely.
Yet the flas were calm and solid, devoid of any emotion.
The real Finn was not dead, still preparing to ‘welco the new’ in the outer space.
The dancing tongues of fire aid to construct a burning cage to enclose He Ao.
He Ao did not know how the elderly ‘drove’ the silhouettes of these children, but it was clear this driving was unnatural, he could not truly control the children, only drive them to attack He Ao.
Without ‘consciousness’, even such a massive figure was sowhat sluggish in action and reaction.
But even so, the power of this Finn silhouette was still too strong.
At this mont, He Ao was not truly flying. He was lifting himself with psychic power, although his speed far surpassed the sprinting speed of a C-level Transcendent, it was still slow compared to the Fla Giant before him.
Luckily, Finn was still ‘alive’ in the outer space, He Ao prevented those school workers from attacking Finn.
If Finn had reached the inner world first, He Ao might have faced a powerful silhouette filled with rage and aggression.
In that situation, he really would have had no chance.
He Ao further accelerated his body, gripping the spear, charging out from the encirclent of flas before they fully ford a cage.
In that instant, he was already less than twenty ters away from the elderly standing on the Fla Giant.
Given his current speed, a distance of twenty ters would vanish in a flash.
But at that mont, a hand appeared nearly simultaneously before him, striking his body.
Boom—
Even though He Ao tried hard to dodge, the edge of the palm still brushed against his body, and the raging flas instantly engulfed him, the scorching heat drying his skin.
His figure was knocked flying by the collision, the spear he held tightly flew out of his hand.
Behind the hand, the elderly standing on the shoulder no longer showed shock on his face, only a slightly mocking smile remained on his lips as he watched He Ao being swatted away.
But soon, that smile froze on his face again.
The spear, now free from He Ao’s control, spiraled through the air, and unerringly headed straight for the elderly.
Perhaps the Fla Giant’s hand had also hit the spear, accelerating it, the spear’s speed was so fast that it was too late for the elderly to dodge.
At that mont, the elderly understood, ‘Loren’ had intentionally hit it, using the giant’s strength to kill him.
He desperately tried to move backward, but his speed compared to the swift spear was as if standing still.
Boom—
Just as the spear was about to reach the elderly, a giant hand erged from the void, swatting the spear aside.
“Well done, Finn!” A sheen of sweat appeared on the elderly’s rigid face as he looked at the emotionless gigantic head, “You should protect the headmaster!”
And at this mont, He Ao, who had just been knocked away, stabilized himself in mid-air, looking at the Fla Giant in front of him.
Fell into brief silence.
The giant in front of him was too strong.
This strength isn’t technique or conscious prowess, it’s purely a power tric.
For a mont, He Ao felt like he was facing a strong entity at the Incomplete Angel level.
This was certainly not Finn’s own strength but ca from the power constructing this anomaly.
The force above Angel directly infused Finn’s ‘silhouette’ within this space, under a certain rule, into a power beyond limits.
The spinning spear circled in the sky, He Ao gazed at the elderly holding the Crystal Ball.
No matter how he calculated, he was still just a D-level Martial Artist, although very close to C-level, but still a bit away, and under this space’s rules, his strength was still restrained.
The surrounding sky grew increasingly dim, an invisible distortion spread from the edge of space-ti.
The twisting flesh writhed beneath his skin, there was still a portion of his restoring power left.
He had been testing the limit of Super mory Strength this body could endure.
Perhaps because of the anomaly rules affecting his body, this body’s ‘resistance’ had increased a bit further.
He could attempt to activate Super mory, instantly elevating this body’s strength to B-level.
He estimated that under the unresponsive sluggishness of the fiery silhouette, B-level speed should barely be able to dodge the attack.
However, this would consu all remaining restoring power he had.
aning, he would only have a fleeting chance, if he failed in that mont, either getting captured or reset, he might be permanently trapped.
He Ao lowered his head, glanced at the rubber band wrapped around his wrist.
Then he raised his head again, gazing at the Fla Giant ahead.
He took a deep breath, his entire body suddenly propelled forward like a streak of light, streaking across the sky.
The twisting flesh churned beneath his skin, purple brilliance completely overshadowing his pupils.
The invisible pressure spread across the world.
The elderly watched He Ao charging, unconsciously shouted, “Stop him.”
The blazing Fla Giant lifted its hand, reaching for He Ao.
The speed of its palm was extrely fast, reaching He Ao in an instant, but in that mont, He Ao suddenly extended his hand, barely keeping up with the hand’s movent, braving the raging fire, grabbing the edge of that palm, and forcefully flung himself off it.
Instantly, He Ao’s figure shot past the Fla Giant’s giant hand like a streak of light, rushing toward the elderly behind the hand.
This ti, he once again saw the tense expression on the elderly’s face.
But in that very instant, intertwining flas erupted before the elderly, blocking He Ao’s path.
?
The power tric was just too strong.
The twisting flesh beneath He Ao’s skin cald down, his remaining restoring power was down to the last wisp, far from enough to support another B-level power release.
And now, the Fla Giant’s hand, having missed its grasp, flipped around, reaching for him from behind.
——
Surface space.
Finn, sitting quietly amidst the unmoving people, lowered his head and pressed his chest.
An inexplicable tension and panic spread through his heart.
His hand tightly gripped his wrist, holding the slender rubber band.
No!
Thin flas erged on his wrist, wrapping around the slender rubber band.
——
He Ao gazed ahead.
The enormous flaming serpent coiled around halted for a mont, failing to form a complete shield.
The hand reaching for He Ao from behind paused at that mont.
A faint burning sensation ca from He Ao’s hand, and the rubber band always worn on his wrist now glowed slightly with flas, burning in the darkness.
The Fla Giant watching him seed to have a certain glimr in its eyes at this mont,
Finn?!
He Ao was slightly taken aback as he noticed the glimr.
But his actions didn’t stop.
The rubber band coiled around He Ao’s wrist burned out almost in the blink of an eye, and the brilliance in the Fla Giant’s eyes vanished in that instant.
But at this mont, with the speed being what it was, this brief pause was enough.
In an instant, He Ao’s body passed through the gaps of the flaming serpent, reaching the elderly in front of him.
“Protect !” the elderly standing on the shoulder shouted fiercely.
The coiling flas reignited, wrapping towards He Ao from behind.
But by then, He Ao had already approached the elderly.
The elderly was currently standing on the shoulder of the Fla Giant, but there were no flas around him to protect him.
The elderly watched He Ao approach, glanced at He Ao’s weaponless hands, sneered and quickly retreated.
The surging flas unfolded like a rushing fierce tiger behind He Ao.
Whoosh——
At that mont, with the whistling wind, the spear spiraling in the sky cut through the firmant, bypassing the still-unfolding flas, flying in front of He Ao.
Bang——
He Ao caught the spiraling spear, his whole body propelling forward.
Most of Vestara’s Spear cannot be infused with Divine Sense, but there is an exception: the place where the spear shaft connects with the spearhead allows a bit of Divine Sense to penetrate.
And it was through this bit of Divine Sense that He Ao continuously guided the direction of the spear.
This spear was also his ‘backup’ plan, and if he failed to breach the defense, he would draw the sowhat sluggish Fla Giant’s attention while the spear circled back to see if it could wound the elderly, creating an opportunity.
But due to the actual ‘Finn’s’ intervention, at this mont, both he and the spear had crossed over.
He Ao grasped the spear, his body spinning abruptly along the spear’s montum, like a long rainbow piercing the sky, traversing the firmant.
And the elderly standing in the sky, seeing this scene, did not hesitate and abruptly leapt back, trying to rge into the darkness and shadows, attempting to distance himself from the child in the sky.
But his speed was too slow.
Puff——
The star-like spearhead sliced through the sky with no pause, piercing through the elderly’s body.
With greenish shimring blood splattering amidst the flas, the flas opened in the sky paused, and the fla hand striking back also stopped.
Everything in the world seed to stop at that mont.
The director raised his head, gazing at the thin face of the boy beside him, holding the crystal ball tightly, sneering, “You won’t kill , because if I die, you’ll never know what truly happened.”
Puff——
He Ao suddenly exerted force, pushing the spear further forward, the powerful vibration erupting within the elderly’s body, tearing him apart.
The elderly’s gaze contracted, his eyes wide open as he looked at He Ao, then he laughed, “You are blinded by rage.”
But the response was rely a slender hand reaching out.
Twisted flesh wriggled beneath the palm’s skin, as if so terrifying life was crawling beneath the flesh, threatening to tear it apart and descend upon the world at any mont.
An invisible pressure descended upon the firmant.
The elderly’s pupils suddenly contracted, he wanted to break free, but it was too late.
The hand was already pressed against his cheek.
A faint purple glow covered He Ao’s eyes, and the last vestiges of restoring power entwined around him dissipated completely at that mont.
The elderly had a strong sense of caution, superficial mind-reading yielding no information.
But He Ao no longer had ti to interrogate, so he chose the most brutal thod: unleashing as much mory as possible through the resistance created by the anomaly and the last of restoring power.
mory.
This was the true domain of ‘Super mory.’
As the purple glow seeped into the elderly’s body, fragnts of broken mories unfolded in He Ao’s consciousness.
This bit of Super mory strength only allowed He Ao to read limited mories, so he sifted through to pinpoint key tifras.
This elderly initially was just an ordinary person caught in an anomaly; in his youth, he joined the Abnormal Association and worked there for so ti.
Later, during a mission, he was trapped in an anomaly, and on the brink of death, he pleaded to the anomaly for a way out.
Then he encountered the anomaly explorers of the Anomaly Sect who ventured into this anomaly.
He claid to have received guidance from the anomaly, that these sect mbers ca to save him, and he managed to deceive these anomaly sect mbers into believing he was an emissary of the anomaly.
Later, he led these anomaly sect believers out of the anomaly but did not return to the Abnormal Association; instead, he genuinely joined the Anomaly Sect, becoming a Deacon.
In the depths of his soul, he truly believed the anomaly was a ‘Divine Being,’ and indeed, he was saved by the anomaly’s ‘guidance’ back then.
Equally, he didn’t mind exploiting his ‘faith’ and the Anomaly Sect to accumulate his own wealth and power.
He himself was a D-level Transcendent, once possessing a Talent Sequences owned by He Ao, ‘Assassin.’
He had chances to ascend to C-level early on, but he didn’t choose to, fearing the dangers of the Transcendent, instead preferring to exploit the ‘risk-free’ anomaly power.
He wasn’t originally from Xiluo City, about ten years ago, he was appointed as the Bishop of Xiluo City.
This was the second-in-command within the Anomaly Sect; a bishop typically oversaw all sect support of a city, and above a bishop, the Anomaly Sect only had one position of Archbishop.
And the Archbishop was singular.
The establishnt of this orphanage, the collection of orphans, and the fire at the orphanage were all instigated by that ‘Archbishop’s’ orders.
