Chapter 107 Dawn

In his predicament, Suren suddenly saw a glimmer of hope for breaking the stalemate.

He turned his gaze towards the ghost lady who had suddenly floated out.

He had been fighting with his nerves stretched taut and had almost forgotten Pestoya.

Because he hadn't seen her in a long time, and had never seen her use any combat abilities, Suren had simply thought of her as a talkative ghost lady.

Moreover, top-tier professionals usually didn't leave obvious weaknesses in their domains, and this kind of sonic domain was also fatally harmful to spiritual entities.

Just now, she had also been hiding in the runic umbrella and hadn't come out.

Suren subjectively assumed that she shouldn't be good at fighting, so he didn't expect her to be able to help.

But clearly, Pestoya was not affected in the slightest at the moment.

Suren thought that he had comprehended the Domain of Death and was about to show off his skills.

But at this moment, a dramatic scene unfolded.

He just watched Pestoya float out, and then, this ghost lady floated towards the Alchemy Sanctuary as if no one else was around.

Strangely, the legendary hunter, Maria, searched around with her stern gaze, but seemed not to see her at all.

Seeing this, Suren wasn't too amazed yet.

He figured that Pestoya had fused with the Divine Fire, so it was normal that others might not be able to see her.

Then, an incredible scene unfolded!

This ghost lady just swaggered into the Alchemy Sanctuary without being hindered in the slightest.

Suren's doubtful expression froze on his face.

He was even more surprised to find that after Pestoya went in, the spatial fluctuations immediately disappeared completely!

Without Suren having to think about what had happened, he watched the ghost lady float out from the window, holding a huge space gem in her hands.

"She... she destroyed the space array?"

Seeing this, the corner of Suren's eye twitched violently, and his thoughts seemed to stutter.

If it were so easy to destroy, he would have teleported in and destroyed it long ago.

That teleportation array was protected by top-tier magic restrictions; even top-tier professionals couldn't break it in a short time!

And you just took down the core space stone of the teleportation array like that?

It was so easy that Suren felt that his actions of risking his life to stop the teleportation several times just now seemed... like a clown was himself?

But if it was so easy to destroy the teleportation array, why hadn't she taken action before?

…

Although Maria couldn't see Pestoya, she could see the huge space gem floating in mid-air!

This legendary hunter knew that there was an expert nearby, but no matter how she sensed, she just couldn't find them.

Now she saw the teleportation array being destroyed and the space gem "floating out".

While shocked, the killing intent in her eyes burst out like lightning, and she rushed over with a whoosh, wanting to snatch the gem back.

A super-long-distance space teleportation array, especially one that teleported an energy body of the level of an Outer God, required a space gem that was a treasure of the highest grade. Even the Luying royal treasury couldn't find a second gem like it!

Seeing this, how could Suren let her have her way? He pinched a warlock seal, and his whole body teleported over at the same time.

How could legs be faster than space teleportation?

He took the space gem into his storage space first.

Maria's face changed drastically, but she also knew that the matter had reached this point, and she had to kill the guy in front of her first.

This legendary hunter changed her move and sang a sharp ballad.

Suren knew that the woman would definitely not let go of such an attack opportunity, and he had originally planned to withstand this blow head-on.

But at this moment, he found that the world in his eyes was obviously different.

He clearly saw the "fluctuations" of the sonic art.

No longer was it the completely traceless killing move from before; this sonic art stirred up visible ripples in the air.

"Huh?"

Suren was both surprised and delighted in his heart.

It was really true that reaching a certain height made the world seen in one's eyes different.

The sound waves that he couldn't sense at all before now manifested as wave patterns, and the threat was instantly reduced by more than half.

Because the trajectory of snatching the gem had been predicted, it was impossible to avoid.

Suren's body had already instinctively entered a defensive state.

As he activated his Overlord Qi, the black "domain field" surrounding his body automatically enveloped his whole body.

He was mentally prepared to be seriously injured and fall to the ground, but an unexpected scene happened again.

"Puff," "puff," "puff"...

Several crisp sounds of clothes tearing and muscle tissue being lacerated rang out.

Suren stood in place, looking at himself who hadn't fallen, also full of doubt.

It wasn't that he was surprised that he had been hit,

but that he was amazed that he had been hit and was still standing?

A seventh-tier art hitting him only caused a slight sting?

While feeling incredulous, his eyes shone with brilliance, and he exclaimed in his heart, "I... I blocked it?!"

Before, being attacked by sound waves was like being thrown into a meat grinder, with both soul and body being completely crushed in all directions, and the slightest carelessness would result in a shattered end.

But just now, only a few sharp syllables had penetrated the domain field like sharp knives and pierced through the runic golden body.

After a rough estimate, the damage reduction was over 90%!

For his current physical fitness, what was a few stabs?

Experiencing the defensive blessing of the Domain of Death for the first time felt great!

…

Not having been at too great a disadvantage in the confrontation for the first time, Suren wasn't in a hurry to teleport away.

As long as he could stand his ground, what was there to fear?

"What kind of domain field did I comprehend that's so strong?"

A thought flashed through Suren's mind, but the movements of his hands were not slow at all.

He ignored the woman and teleported into the Alchemy Sanctuary.

At this moment, in the dim teleportation array, the situation of that stone tablet seemed a bit awkward.

It couldn't run away; it was just a lump of stone, without hands or feet, and couldn't do anything to Suren.

Originally, this stone tablet was also fatally dangerous; it had condensed on it the terrifying Disaster Faith Power of that Outer God.

This was a divine power that humans couldn't bear at all.

The closer one got, the more dangerous it was.

Even if a top-tier professional came, they would instantly hear indescribable whispers and suffer mental collapse under the attack of this faith power.

Just this point alone meant that ordinary people couldn't destroy it.

But because of Pestoya, this faith attack had no effect on Suren.

At this moment, he looked at this stone again, and his gaze gradually became unkind.

…

Just as Suren approached the stone tablet, urgent warnings came from the Dawn members in the communicator.

"Everyone be careful, those Outer God believers are going crazy and are starting to break out desperately!"

"That Outer God is also abnormal, it seems like it's going to fight to the death!"

"Suren, it should be coming for you, be careful!"

"..."

Not only those believers, but the main body of the tentacle sea giant was also fighting desperately.

Before, it had been under siege, and seeing that it had no advantage, this Outer God had been mostly in a defensive posture, wanting to exhaust Grandmaster Pierre to death.

But now that the object of its divinity was threatened, it had to fight desperately.

At this moment, the battle entered its most tragic stage.

Knowing that there was no time to delay, Suren drew out the Dragon Slayer Dagger, wanting to give this stone tablet a stab.

But unexpectedly, a red light suddenly appeared on the stone tablet, rapidly forming a magic shield.

The shield light was as piercing as an array of light, forcing Suren to be unable to approach.

That Outer God was using its last means to prevent outsiders from approaching.

This wasn't a magic shield in the conventional sense, but a protective layer of high-density faith power, which even teleportation couldn't bypass!

And the sharpness of the Dragon Slayer Dagger was purely physical attack, which required close combat.

Seeing this, Suren frowned.

Before he could think of a way to break the situation, the four or five hundred farm residents in the sanctuary looked over with empty eyes again, opening their mouths to sing again.

Suren had learned his lesson before.

This song was a big move that couldn't be listened to.

He also guessed that Maria O'Casey had brought these civilians here, probably with the intention of moral blackmail?

Believers could be killed without hesitation.

But these innocent civilians were mostly old people, children, and pregnant women...

Anyone with a little conscience wouldn't be able to bring themselves to act.

Or perhaps, killing them was itself a trap?

Suren had thought about several possibilities in his mind before.

The best response was to ignore them.

But if he ignored them, these people would "sing" again.

Suren thought of a compromise between killing and not killing.

Seeing that these people were about to sing, he grabbed with his five fingers in the void, and transparent threads surrounded his fingertips, instantly spreading throughout the sanctuary.

These were all ordinary people, and the threads easily pierced their skin, like silver needles piercing their nervous systems, depriving the nerves of control over the body.

You can use spells to control their minds, and I can use physics to control their bodies.

This move directly paralyzed hundreds of people on the spot.

Now, even if they wanted to sing, they couldn't open their mouths.

While controlling these people, a thought flashed through Suren's mind, and he quietly pulled a thread, changing the angle of several pieces of glass in the Alchemy Sanctuary.

The reflection on the glass reflected the main battlefield in the far distance.

There, the flares illuminated the night as if it were day, and several tall figures were still fighting fiercely.

Just then, a high-pitched song came in again.

The black crow on his shoulder crowed, and Suren's pupils shrank violently.

A deadly crisis that made his scalp tingle struck, and he teleported out of the sanctuary like lightning.

In that instant, hundreds of people in the room exploded with a bang, their flesh and blood flying everywhere.

The explosive power of the corpse explosion technique wasn't strong, but the blood and flesh strangely permeated the ground, lighting up a mysterious nine-pointed star magic array.

…

"The flesh and blood curse of the Black Witchcraft lineage?"

Hundreds of meters away, Suren looked at the sanctuary shrouded in blood and recognized the origin of the art, his brow slightly furrowed.

Even from such a distance, an evil aura that made him feel suffocated and nauseous assaulted him.

This was a curse technique of around the eighth tier.

Suren estimated that if he went in now, he would probably turn into a pool of pus.

Just in this instant of teleporting out,

without any time to breathe,

the crisis struck again!

Suren's pupils shrank violently, and he raised his hand, and four terrifying wax figures and a pile of puppets had already protected him on all sides.

Before, it was because his main body couldn't stand in the sonic domain field that he didn't have the intention to fight head-on.

Now that the threat wasn't too fatal, he immediately had the idea of trying out the "Songstress Witch" Maria.

Since this woman's sonic domain wasn't fatally effective against him, it was hard to say who was better than whom in other methods.

Just as the puppets were summoned, a beautiful melody entered his ears.

In his vision, a large-scale sound wave attacked again.

"Bang," "bang," "bang"... a series of explosions rang out.

All the ordinary puppets exploded into dust.

Suren wasn't surprised at all.

He just wanted to test the shortcomings of puppets in battle against this type of professional, thinking of engraving relevant runes in the future.

Even the gargoyle's hard body was like plasticine, and the silver body was deformed in various wavy ways.

The four-element puppets also failed to maintain their solid state for long and disintegrated into elemental bodies.

Not only the puppets, but ordinary threads easily collapsed in the sonic wave environment; only a few black threads entangled in the Domain of Death could be used normally.

The only one that remained intact was the wind elemental wax figure that contained the complete soul of young master William!

"As expected, it can use the domain of wind..."

Suren muttered in his heart as he watched.

With a seventh-tier combat-capable elemental wax figure, he was even more confident.

Although the four elemental wax figures were four independent existences, their auras were already connected, and the elements complemented each other.

If one didn't perish, the other three couldn't collapse either.

Behind "Young Master William," the phantom of the [Faux Servant Wind Witch] rose, its power astonishing. As the Domain of Wind opened, the sound of howling winds echoed near the entire sanctuary.

Wind blades were like knives, everywhere.

Even Maria, strong as a seventh-tier legend, had to be cautious in the face of the four elemental wax figures, and she gathered her domain defense.

Suren controlled the elemental puppets to besiege and kill in various ways.

Being too famous wasn't a good thing; all kinds of information were known by others.

In addition to sonic methods, this among the top ten legends also had a flying needle trump card that controlled sound-sensitive metals.

One hand controlled sound waves, and the other pierced the brain with flying needles, almost certainly killing.

Unfortunately, with precautions, the threat was much lower.

Moreover, Suren also had the Two-Way Crow.

Lord Crow had collapsed several times following Suren before.

But now that Suren could stand his ground, this silly bird had also learned to be smart, turning into a cloak and hiding in Suren's Domain of Death, not coming out.

With it around, almost all physical methods were not much of a threat.

…

As a legendary hunter, Maria's methods were endless.

The two sides fought back and forth, fighting lively.

But in the short term, neither had the ability to kill the other.

And various messages were constantly coming from the communicator, saying that the Outer God was fighting desperately, and the battlefield was normally transferring here quickly.

Suren was also a little headache.

It seemed that the situation had stalemated again.

Although his life was not in danger, he couldn't kill Maria, nor could he do anything about the stone tablet.

Suddenly, he thought of Pestoya.

This ghost lady had been floating beside him since she destroyed the teleportation array and hadn't taken action again.

She seemed to be focused on listening to a concert, her expression enjoying. From time to time, she also coveted Maria's body, probably thinking about how to make her into a doll.

It had to be said that Maria's singing voice was really good. It was the kind of wonderful experience that could make people reach soul resonance and feel physically and mentally happy when they truly listened.

But now the situation was urgent, and it wasn't the time to listen to songs.

Huh…

Why was she still so calm?

During the gaps in controlling the puppets to fight, Suren suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Pestoya, have you always had the confidence to deal with this woman?"

Pestoya glanced at him and responded, "Yes, these sound waves have no effect on me."

"Then why didn't you take action before..."

Suren's eye twitched slightly as he listened.

He had been risking his life to try to keep that Outer God, not thinking that it was originally very easy.

Pestoya said, "Because Sister said to wait a bit."

"Senior Sister said?"

Hearing this, Suren knew that there must be some hidden reason in this matter.

But his expression was also slightly strange. This ghost lady didn't have any physical objects, even her clothes were幻化的 (huànhuàde, illusionary), let alone a communicator.

When did she say it?

Pestoya seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and said directly, "I can sense what Sister is thinking."

Suren asked in surprise, "Telepathy?"

Pestoya blinked her eyes, "Yes… after fusing with the Divine Fire, I can sense some of the thoughts of the people around me. Although I'm not very skilled, communicating with Sister is still very smooth."

Saying that, she also added playfully, "I can also sense Mr. Suren's thoughts. So, you better not have any strange ideas usually."

Suren rolled his eyes: "..."

This ability was even more evil than mind reading, a bit like the ability of a god to listen to the hearts of believers?

But hearing these words, his mind suddenly became active, and he thought of other things.

In fact, from the beginning, he felt that something was wrong.

Faced with the Outer God [Sea Giant Clarence], a civilization-disaster-level threat, it seemed a bit too childish if Senior Sister's backup plan was just his small sixth-tier self.

Now looking at Pestoya, he understood everything.

Mr. Mirror was probably the alchemist with the most experience in fighting gods in this plane.

Moreover, she also understood a not-low level of the laws of destiny and would definitely not have failed to think that the faith stone tablet would escape or something.

A sixth-tier, at least Suren who hadn't comprehended the domain field just now, would definitely not be able to stop it.

So, Mr. Mirror's "backup plan" was definitely not just himself.

Just as this thought flashed, Pestoya obviously understood again and said, "I could have taken action earlier~ But Sister told me to delay for a bit, and I also knew that Mr. Suren's state of comprehension just now was very rare, so I didn't disturb you."

"..."

Suren smiled wryly in his heart as he listened.

No wonder Pestoya only took action "coincidentally" at the moment when he felt he was about to die; so that's how it was.

But it was because of her "hands-off approach" that he was able to grasp that rare near-death feeling because of his repeated brushes with death before.

Saying it this way, Suren knew that Pestoya had helped him a lot in the shadows to master the Domain of Death.

…

Moreover.

Suren felt that he probably didn't need to worry about that stone tablet.

Soon, he knew why Mr. Mirror had Pestoya delay.

Because at this time, a familiar person appeared out of thin air in his senses.

"Pandora?"

Suren sensed that familiar soul fluctuation and immediately knew who it was.

A figure rushed out of a mirror.

Suren had seen Mr. Mirror use this trick in Cadrant Port before.

No matter how far away, as long as there was a reflection in the mirror, one could directly transmit a person from the reflection.

This was also why he instinctively thought of pointing the glass mirror in the sanctuary at the battlefield before, just to make it easier for Mr. Mirror to come over.

Taking another look at the two red moons in the distant sky that were still dazzling, it was naturally Pandora's mirrored clone on that battlefield.

Pandora teleported over and went straight for the stone tablet in the sanctuary.

She was an alchemical homunculus, and it seemed that she wasn't affected by the curse at all.

Suren also breathed a sigh of relief as he watched.

He couldn't do anything about that stone tablet, but this one could!

This was the Tsukuyomi Great God who specialized in stealing faith.

That stone tablet gathered super terrifying faith power, which was poison to humans, but to her, it was the best tonic.

Although her tier wasn't as high as the [Sea Giant Clarence], some of her methods were not inferior.

With Pandora appearing here, all the clues were connected.

Suren now had a very clear idea in his mind, and a wonderful idea even emerged: Sir Isaac once captured a real god; could it be that among the abilities that the alchemical demigod left to his daughter, there was a "god-slaying method"?

Mr. Mirror + Pestoya + Pandora = God-slaying?

This was very likely.

Mr. Mirror bore the great ambition of the rise and fall of the plane and civilization and must have mastered some methods to deal with Outer Gods.

And Pestoya and Pandora, one restrained souls, and the other absorbed faith, both were methods aimed at gods.

Having figured this out, Suren finally felt that the pressure that had been weighing on his heart and making him unable to breathe had disappeared.

Just as Pandora rushed into the sanctuary, a majestic faith power erupted.

He seemed to hear screams in his ears, as well as the indescribable whispers of that god.

This was the last resistance of that stone tablet; its faith power was being stolen and was rapidly collapsing.

Seeing this, the "Songstress Witch" Maria rushed over, wanting to stop her.

But how could Suren give her the chance?

He used all his means to stop the woman outside.

When Pandora began to absorb the faith power of the stone tablet, the Outer God in the distant battlefield also went completely crazy.

Suren watched in the distance, a red parasitic mass like a torrent rolling over.

That indescribable great terror gradually approached, and Suren's scalp tingled as he watched.

It frantically wanted to approach the sanctuary, wanting to take back its "divinity."

However, Mr. Mirror and the others also followed closely.

Just then, Suren suddenly heard someone chanting incantations.

…

The old and distant chanting echoed throughout the entire Lunden City.

It was the final farewell that the great alchemist made to this world.

"Following the law of equivalent exchange of all things, praising the glory of the original creator, using alchemy to witness the miracle of creation…"

This sentence wasn't a spell.

Alchemists never needed any magic spells to cast spells.

This was just the common belief of all alchemists.

From the first day of becoming an apprentice, everyone would learn to recite this spell, which was more like an oath, from their teacher. From then on, they began to embark on the path of seeking the truth of this world.

This sentence seemed to have magic power; it allowed alchemists to find the direction to move forward when faced with confusion.

At the end of his life, Pierre, the warlock who stood at the pinnacle of the plane, recalled the memory of when he first stepped into the field of alchemy as a child and recited this spell representing the truth of faith.

At that time, he already felt that alchemy had infinite attraction.

The process of seeking the truth was like peeling away the veils of the world one by one; it was really so beautiful and beautiful.

Now, looking back suddenly, he could already glimpse the appearance of the truth, and he increasingly praised the miracle of the creator.

Alchemy was great.

Because of this, he wanted it to continue to shine brightly.

Grandmaster Pierre condensed his last art and raised it forward: "Divine Art Forbidden God Chains!"

The body of the fire giant turned into cold fire chains, locking the ugly monster in place.

The "torrent" stopped its momentum, and the fire giant's aura became lower and lower.

Suren watched from afar, his eyes already full of respect.

That old man burned his candle to the end, bringing the last ray of light to the world.

At the same time, a mirror light flashed, and an additional figure appeared outside the Alchemy Sanctuary.

From then on, no one could stop Pandora from stealing faith.

The blood color of the red moon in the sky became lighter and lighter.

Before long, the will of that evil god finally completely dissipated.

Without the control of the evil god's will, the believers and twisted monsters in the city instantly lost their lives and fell down in large numbers.

The bloody world disappeared, and the people who survived the disaster felt like they were in another world.

Unconsciously, the fish-white cyan clouds had already lit up in the sky, and the first ray of dawn shone into the city.

Only then did people realize that dawn had arrived.

The darkness was expelled, and hope-filled light gradually appeared on those frightened faces.

ps. Asking for a wave of guaranteed monthly tickets for August, the beginning of the month is very, very important, thank you everyone!
