Chapter 1435: Chapter 1433: The Final Decision
[Inside London City]
By using “Artisan Power” to gather London’s ‘injuries’ together and deliver a world-shaking strike, the one responsible was none other than Feng B. Kreman, the Third Generation Blacksmith from [Sacred Tier].
The blacksmith’s agreement with the Black Tower was merely a standard task contract, differing from the Mother Entity as it did not contain any wagering elements.
As long as he could achieve the task’s objectives, the corresponding Holy Level World would receive an appropriate task reward.
This was unlike the other three worlds.
[Sacred Tier], which had prior dealings with S-01, knew very well what it was up against. If it weren’t for the binding stipulated by the Black Tower Treaty, they would have long abandoned all tasks related to the Demons… They were determined never to have any entanglement with these creatures that defied conventional values and level evaluation.
Thus, the Third Generation Blacksmith dispatched for the mission had already prepared for the worst-case scenario.
What he hadn’t expected, however, was to fall into a deeply passive situation so early in the war… Furthermore, he wasn’t entirely sure what he was facing.
Demon? Human? Or perhaps a monster from some unknown dimension?
Within the Iron Space, where external interference was completely absent, it was a one-on-one confrontation.
The Third Generation Blacksmith initially matched evenly against a human knight who called himself the [Great Demon]. But as the battle dragged on, the Great Demon’s condition began to shift increasingly toward abnormality.
The white muscles that had been growing wildly from the start gradually transformed into exaggerated and bizarre hyperplastic tissue.
Two structures resembling giant wings, yet also functioning as oversized palms, grew on his back,
A heavy white tail, measured in tons, thudded forcefully against the ground,
Various adaptable changes occurred across his body parts,
At one point, his body even grew a total of thirteen arms simultaneously, leveraging their strength without diminishing power to suppress the blacksmith,
And yet, physical hyperplasia was merely one characteristic.
What truly made the blacksmith wary was the “destructive nature” imbued within the Demon’s physique.
Attacks from the Great Demon carried a property of destruction capable of reversing the normal state of matter, inflicting direct damage even upon the blacksmith’s [Titan Body].
This was precisely why.
Under the Great Demon’s relentless assault, the blacksmith found himself without a single moment to catch his breath.
While the Mother Entity led a full-scale attack, the blacksmith was completely unable to spare any attention… Even the slightest distraction would result in the Great Demon fully suppressing him. He needed to ensure the King Level Balance stayed intact.
However.
Expending every ounce of effort to endure within the domain, the blacksmith was oblivious to the Balance outside already tipping.
Swish!
A familiar yet alien chop strike suddenly swept in from the outside.
The “Iron Space” was split open in a single strike from this astonishing force.
The blacksmith glanced at the supporting King Level human who had arrived, as well as the “Flowing Light Orthodox Sect” blade in his hand, and the situation became crystal clear… the worst-case scenario had unfolded.
Yet.
The blacksmith had already formulated his response plan well in advance within his mind.
“Artisan Perception”
As a Titan craftsman, he could rapidly sense and integrate inorganic materials, especially stone and metal.
In an instant, he grasped the current foundation status of London.
Simultaneously.
The reason he confined the Great Demon Leader to a fixed area was precisely to accumulate damage at a ‘specific point’ in the city, using it as the focal center to disrupt London City’s core.
Ignoring the Great Demon ahead of him and Marlon, who had just breached the Iron Space.
The blacksmith raised the tool in his hand that symbolized the companion artifact of Titan Saint Grade—”Adonom. Hammer of Creation”—and struck heavily at the cracked ground.
Infused with Titan artisan power, the hammer strike directly reached London’s foundations, synergizing with the blacksmith’s techniques to trigger all accumulated injuries across London.
Starting from this central point, earth-shattering fissures began ripping outward across the city.
Crust Penetration.
The once-unified London City split into four distinct parts, collapsing thousands of meters into a mining pit. The wars raging across various streets were forcibly interrupted… At the same time, the Black Dragon battling the Mother Entity in the subterranean palace was revealed.
However, Black Dragon Tepulo’s condition was even more dire.
Tentacles reaching into his core pierced through his body, his invaluable dragon scales torn away in vast swathes… Severe pain and polluting corrosion made the Elder Black Dragon dilapidated between his dragon form and humanoid state.
As the city descended halfway.
The Third Generation Blacksmith transmitted calmly, even with faint pride, to the Elder Black Dragon.
‘Old Black Dragon, our defeat is sealed!
I can no longer sense the Mother Entity’s presence here; there’s absolutely no chance of reversal… The restrictions imposed by the Land Deed and the unequal footing at King Level ensure that neither of us can escape.
Even if we manage to drag our final breaths back home, not only will the mission be a failure, but our world would face repercussions, possibly suffering degradation. We will be branded as sinners of our realm, forever unable to atone for our sins.
Having come this far, why not drag this entire army of Demons into destruction along with us?
When the time comes, our world might erect a grand monument in our honor, celebrating our heroic deeds for centuries. What do you say?’
‘Hahaha! I happen to share the same thought… As expected of the S-01 World, I’ve seen more in this lifetime than ever before.
Fortunately, the destructive energy accumulated within me has nowhere to vent. Let’s see who delivers better results.’
Within the Black Dragon’s body, countless devoured volcanoes erupted simultaneously, his external temperature skyrocketing by thousands of degrees Celsius, displaying an intensely unstable state.
At the same time.
The Third Generation Blacksmith encased himself within an absolutely sealed iron coffin, an immeasurable energy beginning to gather.
Whether it was the human Marlon and the Great Demon,
Or the Mother Entity as a Demon, everyone understood within this moment… Due to the drastic tilt of the Balance, the war had begun shifting toward an unforeseeable outcome.
Marlon shouted loudly, “This is bad! Great Demon, we have to figure out a way to get all the knights out of here!”
Simultaneously, the Mother Entity’s voice echoed across the falling London City through the Land Deed.
“All personnel must immediately move toward the nearest Dark Area within ten seconds!”
Yet.
While everyone attempted to approach the Dark Area.
The enemy forces amidst the collapse acted as though they had gone insane, abandoning all defensive maneuvers and charging forward like rabid beasts. Some even combusted their cores and spirits to achieve short-term bursts, determined to drag the Demons down with them even at the cost of their own annihilation.
Ten seconds later.
All friendly forces near Dark Shadows were enveloped in a layer of darkness, as the Mother Entity leveraged the power of the Land Deed to teleport them to the surface of the Mythical Celestial Body.
The celestial body was now hurtling at full speed toward the ground.
With so little time left to account for how many allies had yet to make the transfer, an extremely terrifying event was about to unfold.
“These lunatics actually possess such resolve… Sacrificing their King positions to perform a self-destruction at the rule level.”
Buzz!
Under the Mother Entity’s control, the Land Deed unfolded anew, fully enclosing the Mythical Celestial Body.
The impending explosion was something the Mother Entity had never witnessed before… But one thing was certain: this self-destruction would surely obliterate the entire planet.
Boom!
Bright light erupted from the depths of the mining shaft.
In an instant, the Endless Energy symbolizing Holy City’s pinnacle steam technology, designed to stabilize the Land Deed, went into overdrive and detonated in a flash.
The energy surge that spewed from the shaft collided with the Dark Barrier.
The Mother Entity, forcibly controlling the Land Deed, began to emit massive amounts of white smoke across her body, accompanied by screams at frequencies far beyond tolerable limits.
The Land Deed in her hands slowly vanished, and the barrier encapsulating the celestial body started to rupture…
