Chapter 1149: Swallowing the Forbidden, Abandoning the Human Form
Chapter 1149: Swallowing the Forbidden, Abandoning the Human Form
At the Dashaun Delegation's Residence, all the Security Personnel were mobilized. Besides protecting the Residence itself, they were also on guard to prevent the Dashaun gathering place from being attacked again during the city's turmoil.
The City Guard Hired from the Central City also gathered here, patrolling the main streets leading to the gathering place.
They were indeed doing their job for the money, and even though the commotion in the Sealed Hall area was significant, they paid no attention to it.
After realizing how severe the situation was in Weizhou Central City, Chen Chuan moved to the rooftop of the Residence.
Looking up, he saw that the outlines within those light bands had become somewhat fainter. The effects of this ancient ritual were hard to define, but it was certainly preventing anything from the other side from entering this world.
With that mental force barrier, there shouldn't be any issues.
He then looked toward the direction of the Sealed Hall. The height of the Residence building allowed him to see some things. A fog enveloped the entire area, with a hazy light floating above it. The sky was dotted with twinkling lights, which were likely battle airships.
The deployment of so many airships indicated a very urgent situation.
At that moment, his third eye between his brows flickered. Using his Heaven Eye, the fog almost instantly became transparent. The Ceremonial Field revealed itself as large, shimmering light spots, surging from the ground and spreading to the sky, standing out prominently in the darkness. It was like an aurora from another world, making the neon lights seem dull in comparison.
He could now see three major impact points. Two of them had more active field collisions, while the third was relatively quiet, as if waiting for the other two to resolve.
He focused on the northern direction. After mastering the two major techniques, his perception of certain things had become exceptionally sharp. He easily sensed that the entity he had found in the Sealed Hall the other day was being blocked there, and his gaze deeply fixed on that spot.
If any other entities escaped from the Sealed Hall, he wouldn't intervene much. However, as a member of the Purity Sect, he wouldn't allow them to wreak havoc outside.
Once these entities from the other side break free or escape the ritual's constraints, they would immediately tear open a rift, causing more destruction than the sacrifices of the New Light Sect. And once the energy from the other side flows in, their power would be far greater than what was seen here.
Now, it was a matter of whether the arrangements at the Sealed Hall could handle it. If they couldn't, he wouldn't let the situation go unchecked.
At this moment, a notification sounded in his dimensional device. Xie Team Leader's voice came through: "Director Chen, the first delegation has sent a message for you. I've drafted it into a message for your review."
Chen Chuan waited a moment and saw a message appear on the dimensional device's screen. It was from the first delegation, informing him that they had received a security assistance request from the Federal Executive Hall, hoping he could help defend the Sealed Hall if possible.
The message also provided the identities of the three prisoners about to break out of the Sealed Hall. The Federation wouldn't give this information, so it was likely the work of the intelligence department.
He knew the identities of two of the prisoners well. When he saw the identity of the last one, he raised an eyebrow.
No wonder the Federation's executive branch had intervened so quickly.
This was the Former Federal Executive, declared by the Federation to have died from a relapse of old injuries sustained during his term. He was a significant figure in the Federation's history books, with a statue in the memorial hall.
Now, this executive had escaped and actually swallowed a Forbidden Relic, turning into a monster before being imprisoned. This would severely damage public perception and the Federation government's image, and it had to be suppressed.
He could help with this. He had already planned to do so.
Moreover, the first delegation would definitely not let him do this without compensation, which made him quite pleased.
He tapped his dimensional device and reconnected with Xie Team Leader, saying, "Team Leader Xie, I've decided to accept the first delegation's commission and assist in the defense."
Xie Team Leader's steady voice came through: "Director Chen, be careful."
Chen Chuan responded with a nod. His cloak fluttered, and under the influence of a force field, his body slowly rose into the air, then vanished in a flash.
In front of the Sealed Hall, Rossard faced his former superior. He said solemnly, "Sir, when you were imprisoned, I was on the front lines. When I returned, I heard that you had died of illness. I didn't believe it.
He looked at the figure in front of him, as if searching for that familiar feeling, "Sir, as a Gou Dou Jia, even though you were injured in battle, how could you be defeated by illness? Even if you had mutated, that would have been more believable.
It wasn't until I continued my investigation that they couldn't hide it anymore and told me about this."
He sighed, his eyes becoming complex, "Sir, you shouldn't have taken that thing."
Looking at the figure with the countless arms moving behind it, he spoke with great determination, "If you were like this, I would have voted in favor back then."
Cavinton emitted a low, chuckling laugh: "General Rossard, you are as straightforward and persistent as ever. Just like when I planned to attack the East Tower Fortress, only you dared to voice your opposition. A person like you would never understand."
Rossard frowned: "Understand what?"
Cavinton said: "After I became the Chancellor, I reviewed the old archives and learned some things..." At this point, his voice grew even lower, "We are destined to lose, so I must take this step."
He then raised a hand to stop the question Rossard was about to ask, "You don't need to ask what that is, nor try to persuade me. Dayer, you've never been an ambitious person. Although you are a good commander, you are not suited to be a politician. Knowing certain things would only bring you more trouble. Just lead your troops well and don't think too much about it."
And I...
He slowly straightened his back, "As the Chancellor, I must consider many more things."
Rossard remained silent for a moment before speaking: "Sir, I have heard this kind of talk from you many times before, but I know you. You are a person with a strong drive for advancement, your greed is endless. You became Chancellor only to become more powerful. To achieve that, you would spare nothing. So I can't be sure if what you say is true. I can only express my doubts."
At this, Cavinton suddenly became angry: "Don't judge me with your shallow understanding! Everything I do has its own reason. If I continue to be trapped, I will never be able to prove my ideas. You will only blame me for being wrong!"
Now that I have come out, it's my turn to prove it!
Also, let's end this conversation. I know you want to delay, but do you think this little time will make any difference? What can you change?!"
As his emotions intensified, his voice turned into a roar, echoing around the room. A white light appeared around him, a dazzling and shimmering light band.
Rossard's orange-yellow aura also spread outward. He clenched his fist and said, "Sir, I was inferior to you in the past, but now..."
In the next moment, he instantly appeared in front of Cavinton and threw a punch. Cavinton tried to dodge to the side, but his body only moved slightly, as if it were rusted and stuck. The punch, wrapped in blinding light, struck his chest and abdomen, creating a large hole!
Cracks instantly spread from the injured area, and a surge of energy clashed within, causing his body to bloat as if it were inflating. His arm behind him shattered into pieces.
Rossard looked up, his eyes meeting the bloodshot, grayish-white eyes of Cavinton, and said, "Sir, you are too weak."
Inside the White Rock Long Hall, the Managers watched this scene through Alura's Aetheric Field, their excitement growing.
Rossard, a veteran Fighter who had been active on the battlefield since the early days of the Federation, possessed an extremely powerful burst of energy and attack, earning him the nickname "Cannon." Even a Federation artillery piece was named after him!
Now, his strength had grown even stronger, and even a Throne Fighter like Cavinton could not withstand his single punch.
Of course, this was also because the former Chancellor's spirit was completely sealed by the combined effects of the rituals and relics, leaving him with almost no active abilities. This made the battle seem already over.
Len then glanced at the other two areas. Mr. Weiss from the Stellar Academy was suppressing the entity on that side, but the Aetheric Field there was more chaotic, making it difficult to see the details.
As for the Former Emperor, there was no significant movement yet, and the situation seemed better, but he had a nagging feeling that he was overlooking something.
"Truly remarkable."
Cavinton looked at his easily penetrated chest and the shattered Spiritual Flame, showing a look of surprise and admiration.
"But Rossard, do you remember what I said? You need to completely and thoroughly eliminate your opponent, because even if they fall, they can still fire a fatal shot at you."
After throwing his punch, Rossard was about to attack again, but he couldn't. When he made contact with the other, he felt a mental force seeping into his body.
This made his mutated tissue stiffen, temporarily preventing him from mobilizing his internal power.
He knew this must be the mental pressure of a Throne Fighter. Any Fighter who hadn't reached their level could be paralyzed by their mental force.
When they appeared on the battlefield, no Fighter below their level could match them. They were the true rulers on the throne!
However, Cavinton was already severely weakened, and his mental power was suppressed and concealed by the rituals, making it inactive. How could he still do this?!
