Chapter 216 Killing the Tri-Angel
Chapter 216 Killing the Triad Angel
After dismissing the night patrol servants, Evan led Bernadette directly to the house, which had few decorations.
Viscount Pound had squandered all of the family's assets. Evan hadn't planned to move in, so there was no furnishing. The house was essentially just an empty shell.
However, it was precisely because the house was empty that it was clear the servants who remained had diligently tidied and cleaned the house, which made Evan nod in approval.
It's not without reason that aristocratic families have hereditary servants; at least in terms of diligence, these servants are much better than outside hires. Even if the master doesn't come for a long time, they don't slack off in managing the house.
After passing through the living room, Evan looked around and found the entrance to the basement. He then led Bernadette down a staircase into a very spacious basement.
There were no gas pipes around, so there was no dedicated light source. Evan simply condensed a ball of fire in his hand to illuminate the surroundings.
Although the basement didn't contain much, just some miscellaneous items, it was still nicely decorated, showcasing the wealth of the Pound family back then.
After searching the walls for a while, Evan found a gray-white stone door in the corner that was almost blending into the wall.
Evan took a deep breath and nodded to Bernadette. Bernadette understood and took out a phantom hat from the void, put it on her head, and then disappeared, disappearing without a trace.
The mystery reappears – the invisibility hat.
Seeing Bernadette disappear, Evan took a deep breath, then mustered his strength and pushed open the stone door with a slightly heavy scraping sound.
By the light of the flame in the assistant's hand, they could see the passageway behind the door paved with dark blue stone slabs.
Several wooden doors on both sides and at the end of the passageway have rotted, but they still look barely usable.
Without hesitation, Evan walked straight to the end of the passageway and forcefully opened the heavy-looking black double stone door once again.
The grating, tingling sound of friction rang out again, and specks of spiritual light emanated from behind the door, reflecting countless interwoven auras. At the same time, what was illuminated by the light was countless slippery, venomous snakes, their scales of various colors gleaming coldly, constantly writhing, sliding, and mating, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.
The opening of the stone door alerted the venomous snakes to Evan's presence, and they began to slither towards him.
The original form of the witch was a beautiful woman with snakes for hair, symbolizing ultimate misfortune and calamity. So even though he knew these snakes posed no threat to him, Evan still felt nauseous and unconsciously took two steps back.
She turned her face away, unable to bear looking at him.
But Evan quickly reacted, flames erupting from his entire body. He pressed his hands down, sending the flames rushing towards the swarming snakes like a translucent red river with a hint of blue light, engulfing all the snakes.
The terrifyingly high temperature directly burned all the snakes it touched to death, charring them until they were dry and crackling, and finally turning them into very small black powder.
Thanks to Evan's precise control, the flames did not spread to other places, and because the flame temperature was so high, they burned exceptionally thoroughly, so there was not even a trace of odor.
Stepping on the black powder formed by countless snake-like creatures, Evan entered the spacious hall behind the stone gate.
The style here is consistent with the outside passageway, with dark stone slabs dominating the floor and walls. Eight massive columns, each requiring several people to encircle, stand tall, and from the high dome hang numerous metal rods carved with various patterns—41 on the left and 40 on the right.
Each.
An upside-down candlestick, asymmetrical decorations—any normal person would feel uncomfortable with these; it's practically driving someone with OCD crazy!
Although he already knew what he was going to see, Evan still couldn't help but complain in his heart after seeing it with his own eyes.
Skipping half a meter above the ground and looking down at the two enormous, iron-black thrones, Evan arrived at the seven stone gates at the deepest part of the palace.
Although Evan knew that there were no mistakes in the content of "Lord of Mysteries", he was cautious by nature and still followed the steps in the original work. He opened three doors from left to right, and then opened three more doors from right to left, witnessing the true character of the Six Gods.
There is a quiet and beautiful goddess of the night, a lush and gentle goddess of the earth, a majestic and solemn god of storms, a handsome and energetic eternal sun, a war god whose decay cannot be concealed, and a god of knowledge and wisdom who is full of wisdom and remains strong even in old age.
After confirming that all the descriptions were identical to those in the original work, Evan waited patiently before pushing open the stone door in the middle.
Even with just a crack, Evan's spiritual senses began to frantically warn him. An image automatically appeared in his mind: behind the stone door was another passageway, at the end of which was a blood-red door. The blood-red door was opened a crack, and through the crack, he could see a black iron-backed chair behind it.
A man dressed in blood-stained black armor sat quietly and deathly in a high-backed chair.
As the view drew closer, Evan saw things more clearly. Just then, the man who had been looking down suddenly raised his head. His young, handsome face bore patches of rotting bone, and his eyes were cold and ruthless. He smiled and said:
"The blood of Einhorn, isn't that my blood too?"
At the same time, Evan sensed the strange activity of the City of Calamity on his body. The monsters in the city were all lying prone and trembling, while the storms and meteorites in the sky, and the volcano in the center of the city, seemed to have come to life and became extremely violent.
Evan felt an unparalleled urge to merge with the being behind the door, an urge that far surpassed the attraction he felt during the day when the Augustus family unleashed the sealed artifact.
This also made Evan realize instantly that the evil spirit behind the door had at least been corrupted by the City of Calamity, and could even be said to have some authority over the City of Calamity.
Evan tried his best to suppress the disturbances in the City of Calamity, but with little success, because this was the most fundamental aggregation, which even a true god could not stop.
Under the influence of this unparalleled power of convergence, the blood-red gate at the end of the passage gradually lost its original suppressive effect and slowly but firmly opened amidst a chilling sound.
When the crimson gate opened more than halfway, Evan seemed to hear a shattering sound; the ritual seal that suppressed the evil spirit had completely failed.
Sodrak Palace, Queen Backlund.
The crown, which had just been placed on the sealing altar and was covered in rust and blood, suddenly emitted a thick, bloody red light and began to spread wildly in all directions, turning all the sealed objects around it into its "servants" and attacking the hall. Only a few sealed objects survived, but they were struggling to hold on amidst the rampant red light.
Just then, Augustus I, an archangel of sequence 1, suddenly appeared on the sealing altar and began to suppress the restless crown.
But this crackdown was different from the past. The Bloodstained Crown resisted fiercely, and it seemed as if it had come back to life. The two sides were locked in a constant tug-of-war.
Outside the city of Saint Milon in the Fusak Empire stands a snow-capped mountain that never melts and often experiences extreme weather. This is the sacred mountain of the Fusak Empire, the "Twilight Temple," second only to the Church of the God of War, and a holy place in the hearts of the Fusak people.
At the summit of the snow-capped mountain sat a middle-aged man, eyes closed in meditation, legs crossed, clad in armor. Before him stood countless stone sculptures of warriors, standing tall and reverent in the wind and snow. Suddenly, he abruptly opened his eyes, a flash of fire passing through them.
Turning their heads to look south, the stone warriors beneath them seemed to come alive, mimicking the same action.
On the coast of the Sunia Sea, shrouded in thick white fog, lies a magnificent and vast port. Countless massive ships with sails are moored there. This is the base of the Sunia Navy Fleet of the Fusak Empire, which poses the greatest threat to the coast of the Kingdom of Rune. The naval warships here bear the crucial mission of severing the connection between the Rune mainland and its colonies during wartime and supporting the army's attack on the Rune mainland. Therefore, seventy percent of the Fusak Empire's navy is concentrated here.
In the port area, there was an unusually tall office building. In one of the luxurious offices, a man who looked to be in his thirties was reviewing documents. Suddenly, he turned into a bolt of lightning and appeared on the port's tallest building, the Church of the War God, looking towards the Kingdom of Rune to the west.
In the Republic of Intis, on the outskirts of Trier, in a lavishly decorated villa, a pure and innocent young girl with a sweet smile awakens in a man's broad chest, looking eastward in confusion.
Evan was unaware of the outside world's reaction after the seal was broken; all he knew was that he was in the greatest crisis since his transmigration.
The young, cold-blooded angel in iron armor that he had just seen under his spiritual warning vanished the moment the seal shattered.
Without the slightest hesitation, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards him, determined to cut him down with his sword.
Just as Evan, the lord of the City of Calamity who was not even a demigod, was about to fall under his sword,
He became incredibly ethereal, and a flash of cold, violent lightning passed over his body, but no blood spurted out.
The lightning-struck Aiwen transformed into a cluster of flying, transparent bubbles, which, illuminated by the flames engulfing Soren Einhorn Medici, shone with a dreamlike quality.
But soon the bubbles scattered in the air regrouped and formed a human figure, from which Evan, who had just turned into bubbles, reappeared.
The mysterious reappearance of the mermaid.
"A spy? A sage!"
Seeing this, Soren Einhorn Medici, who was holding a longsword, couldn't help but whisper something.
Only the mysterious reappearance of an angelic being can influence the decisive victory.
As Evan re-emerged from the bubbles, he did not hesitate to release the suppression of the City of Calamity and fully encouraged Soren Einhorn Medici, who had just dispersed into flames and was preparing to carefully deal with Bernadette and find an opportunity to escape, to move closer to his location.
Having experienced what happened during the day, Evan had already discovered a way to use the aggregation effect to deal with extraordinary individuals of the same path.
All the flames shot uncontrollably toward Evan, but in each flame, the figure of Soren Einhorn Medici appeared.
At the same time, the entire underground hall was filled with iron-black smoke, severing the connection between this place and the spirit world and the astral world, and interfering with the actions of the angels lurking in the shadows as much as possible. This is the authority of the "War Bishop".
Since escape is impossible due to the aggregation effect, then we must focus all our efforts on eliminating this kid with the bloodline of the Evanhorn family, completely connecting him to the City of Calamity, and seizing full control of the City of Calamity. Only in this way can we have any chance of survival.
He even turned the tables on the angel who had been searching for secrets, whom he had been unable to find.
Soren Einhorn Medici knew very well that he had reached a point where he had to fight to the death.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to fight to the death to kill Evan, Bernadette, wearing a mask, appeared beside Evan. The moment she appeared, the mask on her face emitted a faint white light. Under the illumination of the white light, the entire underground hall seemed to have undergone a long period of cleansing. The well-preserved Quaternary relics seemed to have become even more ancient, and the pervasive smoke seemed to have "died".
The flames rushing towards Evan instantly seemed to turn into flickering candles in the wind, only able to reassemble in the air, revealing Sauron Einhorn Medici as suddenly appearing unusually aged. Even the longsword in his hand became rusty, as if it could break at any moment.
Facing the former Angel King, Bernadette showed no contempt or carelessness, and immediately unleashed her strongest form.
The attack of "Pale Death" is not easy to withstand. Even though Sauron Einhorn Medici and others were once powerful angel kings or archangels, they dared not take it head-on.
Not to mention the evil spirits that now only have a status but no extraordinary characteristics to support them; their attack on Evan just now has already released their accumulated power.
Just as a mouth appeared on the rotting, bone-revealing left cheek of the evil spirit, as it opened its mouth to say something, Bernadette didn't give it a chance to speak. A phantom identical to herself appeared on her body, then she closed her eyes and lay down on the illusory coffin behind her.
The mysterious reappearance of Sleeping Beauty.
This stems from the fact that not many people know the fairy tale of Emperor Roselle, so the effect is very powerful.
Soren Einhorn Medici, already weakened by the direct impact of Pale Death, felt an overwhelming exhaustion and his eyes involuntarily closed as he drifted off to sleep.
Bernadette, seeing that this situation showed no sign of stopping, directly conjured a long spear in front of her.
The spear has a very ancient design, with a gleaming cold light emanating from its tip. From the tip to the end of the shaft, there are clusters of dark red blood, as if they were the blood of some great being.
The mystery reappears—the Spear of Longinus.
The moment the spear appeared, it startled Soren Einhorn Medici, whose eyes had been closed. He sensed the aura of destruction and the taste of death emanating from the spear.
It wasn't just him who felt this way; Evan, standing next to Bernadette, felt it even more intensely, so intensely that the City of Calamity within him became even more violent, giving him an impulse to wield a spear and ascend to heaven to slay the gods.
That's what Evan thought, and that's what he did. The instant the spear took shape, Evan mobilized the power of the City of Calamity to unite with himself, connecting with the "Bonaparte's Steadfastness" existing in the Sodrak Palace, and temporarily became the "Iron-Blooded Knight" with its power, flames shooting into the sky erupting from his body.
Not only red flames, but also the black flames unique to witches; the two flames blended together without the slightest conflict.
Instead, it was unusually harmonious and transformed into colorless flames, enveloping Evan's entire body.
Evan stepped forward and grasped the spear that seemed capable of destroying the heavens and slaying gods. His empty, colorless eyes looked at Sauron Einhorn Medici, whose expression had already turned solemn. He then mobilized the power of the City of Calamity with all his might, creating an unparalleled attraction between the two.
Faced with the powerful force of aggregation, Sauron Einhorn Medici had no way to avoid it and could only grit his teeth and transform into a bolt of lightning wrapped in a tattered longsword as he charged toward Evan.
Using this attraction as a starting point, Evan thrust his spear at him.
Wherever the spear passed, several black rays of light emanated from its tip, shattering the surrounding space. The powerful force generated by the shattering of space, in turn, reinforced the spear.
The spear clashed with the blood-red sword, shattering the surrounding space. The sword broke and then vanished.
The Spear of Longinus pierced Sauron Einhorn Medici's chest with unerring accuracy. Colorless flames flowed from the spear into his body, instantly creating countless cracks, making him appear as if he had been shattered and then pieced back together like a sculpture.
Just after Evan thrust out that shot, he felt the excitement of the City of Calamity, and an unusual sense of satisfaction, as if his own flaws had been made up for in that instant.
The Spear of Longinus vanished after striking its target, and Evan fell from mid-air, landing on a net woven from many green vines.
Evan was in very bad shape. The God-Slaying Spear was not easy to wield. Even though he was burdened by the City of Calamity and the spear was very compatible with him, he was still injured by the destructive aura it carried. His whole body was covered with black patterns, and he couldn't help but cough up blood.
The blood he vomited was filled with the stench of blood and rust, and it even corroded the vine bed he was lying on.
But even with his body in this state, Evan paid no attention, instead urgently calling out to Bernadette:
"He's not dead yet! He can be resurrected!"
For high-sequence extraordinary individuals on the Hunter Path, as long as the Legion exists, they themselves will not die. There are no soldiers here who can die in place of Sauron Einhorn Medici, but they are intertwined and mutually govern each other, so they can be considered to have three lives.
Faced with the threat of the Spear of Longinus, in a life-or-death situation, Medici and Sauron worked together to subdue Einhorn as a subordinate and then pushed him out to his death.
Bernadette was unaware of the details, but Evan could sense that he had only killed a part of the evil spirit.
Bernadette had assumed that Evan, wielding the Godslayer Spear, had completely finished off this terrifyingly powerful evil spirit and was preparing to cast a healing spell when she heard Evan's shout. Only then did she realize that the cracks on the evil spirit Sauron Einhorn Medici, who resembled a shattered ice sculpture, were indeed dissipating.
So without hesitation, she immediately extended her right hand, half-clenched it, and brought it to her lips. At the same time, a dark, ancient horn instantly condensed in her palm, looking extremely heavy and powerful.
Mystery reappears—the magical horn.
A deep, resonant sound rang out, and the space shattered wherever the sound waves passed.
The horn of destruction once again shattered Soren Einhorn Medici's body, making it even more fragmented than before, but ultimately it was not destroyed.
Under the blessing of the City of Calamity and the protection of "Bonaparte's Fortitude," Evan, through "Weakness Observation," saw that the "fire" within Sauron Einhorn Medici had been extinguished by half again, and then shouted:
"He's not dead yet, finish him off!"
Even if Evan didn't shout, Bernadette wouldn't stop. Her eyes gleamed slightly as she stretched out her fingers and waved them in the air, conjuring a materialized message that rolled towards Medici, preparing to inject the corrupting information into his body, polluting and destroying everything that was the foundation of this evil spirit's existence.
Bernadette didn't have Evan's "weakness observation" and didn't know how many times the evil spirit before her could resurrect.
However, she possesses the "Prying Eyes" unique to those who seek secrets, and she also saw that Medici's greatest weakness as an evil spirit was that the source of her power was not extraordinary characteristics.
Once the information she wove entered his body and cut off his source of power, no amount of resurrection methods would be of any use. Sure enough, when the information woven and manifested by Bernadette was injected into Medici's body, his spirit-like body actually produced flesh and blood, and Medici was actually transforming from an evil spirit into a human.
The reason Medici was able to exert power second only to angels despite only having a rank is mainly because his evil nature allows him to draw power from the spirit world.
What if it's no longer an evil spirit, but becomes a living, breathing person?
Originally, evil spirits could not become human, but angels who could see into the human realm had the ability to add their occult knowledge into the information flow of the other person, thus transforming them.
Bernadette removed Medici's evil attributes, added some information, and transformed him into a human. It wasn't required that he necessarily become human, but as long as this trend was present, Medici would naturally be unable to obtain power from the spirit world. In addition, Bernadette has not removed the mask from her face until now, making Medici's face look increasingly old.
"snort!"
Just as Medici was about to die, a cold snort came, and the faint white light emanating from the 'Pale Death' on Bernadette's face disappeared instantly. It was as if the mask had encountered some kind of natural enemy, and all its effects were sealed.
Evan sensed that the seed planted for him by the true creator, which was attached to the outer edge of the City of Calamity, had suddenly mutated and split in two.
Part of it continued to attach itself to the outskirts of the City of Calamity, while another part appeared in mid-air, writhing and growing wildly. Almost instantly, it transformed into flesh and blood the size of an adult, covering Medici, who had become a living creature but was also extremely aged due to losing his identity as an evil spirit and being unable to resist the 'Pale Death'.
Bernadette and Evan sensed the dark, filthy, and corrupt aura emanating from the flesh covering Medici, and a single thought flashed through their minds—the true creator.
