Chapter 1382: Chapter 1380: Unstable Factors
Northside City Wall.
The branch leader of the Night Church – Bishop Ilombi was in charge of its defense.
The enemy’s first wave of vanguard troops did not include any with a Mythic Body.
Full of confidence, Bishop Ilombi, leveraging the geographical advantage provided by the City Wall, coordinated all the forces of his order to bombard the approaching enemy troops with Black Magic.
It was very effective at first.
But soon an anomaly was detected.
A strange ‘chanical individual’ withstood all Magic Damage; no form of attack affected it, not even when an Instructor sacrificed himself to grow a massive Tentacle from his belly to pierce the enemy, the machine remained indifferent.
It made its way directly to the base of the City Wall.
The next second, a huge explosion that shocked the entire city occurred.
The North Gate, which could withstand the impact of Myth, was blown to pieces, and the structure of the surrounding hundred ters of the City Wall completely collapsed.
Amidst the smoke and ruins, Bishop Ilombi, still in shock, intended to inform headquarters of the intelligence. The next second, his head and Body were completely annihilated, leaving only his twitching lower legs on the ground, which eventually turned into a pool of Black Water.
…
[Night Church – Headquarters]
Father Lysos, while monitoring the situation in the north through the ‘Eye of London’, experienced magnetic field interference and was unable to see the specifics.
The War had just begun.
Apart from the King Level warfare breaking out in the sky, the siege had just launched its first wave of attacks, and the enemy’s Mythic Body forces stationed at the ‘Space Gem’ had yet to act.
Lysos did not quite understand why the North Gate was breached.
“Could it be… Great Demon’s speculation was accurate.
Is there a King using disguise techniques we can’t identify, secretly moving in the dark? That’s the only possibility; otherwise, the gate could not have been breached in re minutes.
We must uncover and comprehend this King’s Powers.
Otherwise, the possibility of us ‘conservatively’ holding out until the arrival of reinforcents is nearly zero.
Moving ahead with the next step may lead to losing everything; soone must fill the gap caused by this accident.”
The usually calm Priest switched his umbrella to a Staff mode, ready to visit the site personally to investigate.
Suddenly, in the darkness, a twisted Whirlpool not belonging to the Demon World erged, and out stepped a man with a burlap hood, whose joints were all twisted.
The Worn boxing gloves on his hands were particularly conspicuous.
This man was a Demon who, in the previous London ga, completed the Upgrade with Han Dong and others, touched the Vortex miracle and successfully entered the Mythic Body, the strongest warrior under Father Lysos’s command.
He had discarded his birth na, now known only by the codena ‘Big Z’.
In essence, he was exceedingly loyal to the Demons, or more precisely, absolutely loyal to the Priest.
He was once the champion of free fighting in London City, later beca a homicidal maniac due to his bloodthirst, and ultimately found redemption before the Priest.
Even though he was completely altered by the ‘Vortex attribute’ of the Holy Level World as a Demon, his heart still belonged here, unswayed by the brainwashing that ca with the Miracle.
Big Z’s unwavering loyalty was also a major reason for the Holy Level World’s disastrous defeat; they thought they could turn Demons to their own use, but they were unwittingly handing over a great gift.
“Father, I will investigate this matter… even in death, I will bring back valuable intelligence.
You are pivotal to this battle; you must remain here!”
While the Priest nodded in agreent, a special black candle held by his tongue was passed to Big Z.
“Light the candle in a critical mont; it might just save your life.”
“Thank you, Father.”
The mont he received the candle.
Whoosh!
Leaving behind only a spiral footprint on the ground, Big Z moved at top speed towards the North Gate.
Relying on the ‘Vortex Deity’ to realize the Myth Construction, which was not low in quality, Father Lysos even entertained the idea of training Big Z to beco the leader of a special forces unit to further expand London City’s sphere of influence.
‘Domain expansion – reincarnation’
Within the area Big Z stepped into, all matter around, even the most basic air, started to twist.
It was a distortion that transcended conventional matter, capable of affecting the flow of material and exerting a certain degree of twist on ‘ti’… his own strength was not weak at all.
A shadow flashed.
Big Z had already appeared amid the ruins littered with City Wall debris, and where his gaze fell, there were no survivors, not even many bodies to be seen. Mostly it was personal belongings scattered about, as if the bodies had evaporated.
“Hm?”
Big Z’s current vision is sowhat similar to Han Dong’s Demon Eye, where the whirlpool’s spiral effect can enhance the focus on a particular point to the extre.
The spot under his gaze flashed with a gleam of tallic luster.
Whoosh!
With extrely twisted movents of the feet executing a super-fast turnaround, his agile steps allowed him to close in on the object that his vision had detected.
“What is this?”
Standing in front of him was a ‘chanical individual,’ battered beyond recognition.
Various cables were dragging on the ground, and the right arm was nearly detached from the body, hanging in the air by a single cable.
Drip-drip-drip~ ‘Machine oil,’ akin to human blood, was continuously leaking from the deteriorated chanical body.
The tal components embedded within were slowly falling off.
Despite this, it still held in its hand the head of a Demon freshly severed, effortlessly crushed.
At first glance, the chanical life’s broken state appeared as though it resulted from a fierce battle.
But upon closer examination, it beca evident that the machinery was disintegrating on its own,
even so seemingly intact parts spontaneously cracked, and perfectly connected tal conduits also snapped off by themselves.
It was more like a performance of ‘supercharged overload.’
Sensing Big Z’s arrival.
Clack-clack-clack~ The chanical being, in an extrely exaggerated form, twisted its incomplete head 180°.
Machine oil incessantly flowed from its damaged eye sockets, and its mouth still held several wires jumping with electric arcs.
An intermittent electromagnetic sound emanated from within its oral cavity:
“Hmm… Saint Grade? Not quite… Your body bearing both Demon and Saint Grade attributes, how peculiar… Your existence could mislead our soldiers, must be eradicated.”
The seemingly barely ambulant chanical life expelled an extrely fearso laser beam from its mouth, obliterating everything in its path.
Big Z’s domain had no effect, and he could only rely on his body to forcibly dodge.
He couldn’t completely evade, and half of his arm exposed in the beam was annihilated in an instant.
“King Level! And very strong!”
As the burlap sack on Big Z’s head twisted into knots, and he attempted to retreat at full speed while reporting to the Priest.
Hum!
An invisible domain had already spread, with no change to the surrounding scenery.
Within his consciousness appeared sothing akin to a system prohibition sign [BAN].
It was like a ban program forcibly implanted in Big Z’s brain, prohibiting any action related to escape or communication, whether directly or indirectly related, all would be forbidden.
“What kind of power is this?”
The chanical life had raised its right arm, with a ball of annihilation energy accumulating in its palm… completely locked on, no chance to dodge.
At the brink of life and death, Big Z’s loyalty far surpassed his fear of death. Even if he had to die here, he aid to inflict damage on his opponent.
‘Ti Distortion’
Since the domain was ineffective against the machinery, he used it on himself instead.
To distort his own ti, providing an acceleration effect.
A spiraling palm, urgently twisted, struck the chanical individual’s surface before the energy could fire off…
Bang-clank-clatter!
chanical fragnts scattered wildly, and the annihilation energy that was about to fire from the palm ceased as the entity disintegrated.
Staring at the spilled machine oil and completely shattered chanical remnants on the ground, Big Z couldn’t figure out what had happened for a mont… he certainly didn’t think his attack had killed the target.
Instead, that recent strike pushed the machinery’s endurance beyond its overload limit.
Surprised, he quickly relayed the information back to Father Lysos.
However, not long after.
A similar annihilation explosion to that at the northern gate occurred on the southwest side of the City Wall, with the wall once again destroyed… a similar invasion occurred once more.
“The chanical individual self-destructed due to overloading its actions; appearing weak but possessing King Level power, could it an…”
A terrifying conclusion was reached in the mind of Big Z.
Father Lysos ca to the sa conclusion.
“This is troubling.”
