Chapter 301: The Harvest Begins
Chapter 301: The Harvest Begins
High in the sky, fragments of the blood moon occasionally break free from the heavens, falling towards the earth at intervals.
As time passes, the blood moon gradually fades, replaced by glimpses of scorching sun, colorful clouds, and dark moons...
Remember, this is the symbol of the Outer Deity.
The divine power of the Outer Deity is eroding this world, but as long as the barrier remains, it is difficult for the Outer Realm's evil gods to truly enter this realm.
A streak of light pierces through the dark clouds, trailing wisps of smoke as it arcs across the sky and lands on a mountaintop.
On the mountaintop, a person has long been waiting, and upon seeing this, asks, "How is it?"
"Connie doesn't intend to cooperate with the Holy Sanctuary. He seems to be a devout believer, adhering to the Knight's Code," says the Holy Messenger Congreve, with a hint of confusion in his voice.
"The rest is similar to the rumors. Despite consuming the Blasphemy Elixir, he retains his sanity and even harnesses the power of the Pale Wing to become a Third Circle, possessing strength beyond that of a typical Third Circle powerhouse."
"He's like the others in the base, firmly believing that this is due to the blessing of the Moon Goddess!"
"Congreve," says the High-Order Favored of the Creator, Upton, shaking his head slightly.
"You have doubts in your heart."
"Yes," Congreve regains his composure, his face turning serious. "The Moon Goddess has fallen, and there's no mistake about that. The World Will is awaiting a new master."
"Indeed," Upton's face reveals a hint of a smile. "The Outer Realm deities seek the origin of your world, which is why they keep sending their vassals. Aside from surrendering or leaving this world, you have no other choice."
"Connie is an exception, but his power is too weak to make a difference in the eyes of the gods."
"Yes," Congreve nods.
"So, what do we do now?"
"Unless a Demigod intervenes, it's difficult to have absolute confidence in defeating the Second Elder and the High-Order Favored. They are both incredibly powerful," Upton says, deep in thought. "Your Bishop refuses to leave the Holy Sanctuary, and our Divine Child is currently battling the Outer Deity's vassals..."
"Lure him to the Third Elder's side!"
"Alright," Congreve agrees, turning and once again soaring into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Soon after, his figure appears in a mountain valley. Complex patterns emerge beneath his feet, and he kneels, reciting a title:
"Moon Incarnation, Lord of the World, Father of All..."
"A loyal believer calls upon you..."
His voice is deep and solemn, as if trying to establish contact with a certain deity.
"Congreve."
A loud, majestic voice echoes from the void, reverberating in his heart and making Congreve's expression even more devout.
"Speak, how was your mission?"
"Father God," Congreve replies, bowing his head.
"Connie is suspected to possess the bloodline of the Pale Wing, which allows him to resist the effects of the Blasphemy Elixir and greatly enhance his strength."
"The Creator's vassals highly value the base occupied by Connie, as it seems to facilitate their extraction of Essence."
"Additionally..."
"As you instructed, I informed Connie that the Third Elder possesses the wings of the Pale Wing. He is already preparing to go there."
"Of course, he has a request."
"Oh!" The voice resonates.
"What is his request?"
"He... he wants to know how the Forbidden Knight can become a deity," Congreve hesitates before saying, "Connie believes the Holy Sanctuary holds the path to divinity."
Compared to what he said in front of the Creator's vassal, Congreve now reveals every detail without omission.
Only when mentioning the path to divinity does he pause briefly.
Others may not understand, but Congreve is fully aware that the Forbidden Knight has the potential to become a deity, and the Bishop is a prime example.
Although he is only a pseudo-god,
he is still a god!
"Haha..." The voice laughs heartily, exuding a sense of satisfaction.
"I never expected that in this world, there would be someone who shares my path. It's truly unexpected."
"I do possess the method to ascend to divinity, but it's incomplete, which is why I've fallen to this state. Wherever there are gods, this path is forbidden. Perhaps this is why Third Circle Knights are called Forbidden Knights?"
(End of Chapter 301)
"If he can deal with the Third Elder and help me kill this traitor, then I might consider making a deal with him."
"Yes, sir." Congreve replied.
---
After many years of modifications, the base was not impregnable, but it was much stronger than before.
There were over twenty second-rank blasphemy beasts and nearly three hundred first-rank blasphemy beasts, along with several dozen knights...
Karl had also set up numerous sorcery traps and barriers within the base, ensuring that even in his absence, a third-rank opponent would be trapped and killed.
Moreover, with the Flame Gateway, he could rush back at any time to take command.
Even if a demigod were to arrive,
they would still have to pay a heavy price!
"Third Elder?"
Karl smiled lightly.
"The Pale Wing's wings are definitely something we need to obtain, but that's not the purpose of this trip."
"Harvesting essences..."
"That's the real goal!"
His voice rose with anticipation.
"Josie!"
"Yes." Josie, who had been meditating with her eyes closed in the darkness, appeared with a bow:
"Prepare the flying carriage, and bring four second-rank blasphemy beasts and Hum with me."
"Yes, sir." Josie unconsciously raised her head, her eyes flashing with surprise, but she quickly nodded in agreement.
Soon,
a carriage flew out of the base, soaring into the sky and heading towards the Third Elder's occupied base.
At the same time,
Karl transformed into a phantom and flew towards the distance.
...
Ferdinand Dukedom.
Ever since Ferdinand was killed by Karl and Mewia, this place had become a battlefield for the gods' favored ones.
The outer realm gods consumed each other's power here, preparing for the upcoming battle to conquer this world.
A team of over ten people cautiously walked through the city ruins, constantly looking around.
"Brother."
The young girl in the team spoke softly, "How much further do we have to go to get out of here?"
"Not far now," the man in front replied.
"Just two more cities, and we'll be out of the dukedom. Then we can go to Prince Mewia's City of the Dead."
"That place no longer has Prince Mewia, but the vassals of the outer realm's evil gods." Someone whispered, "The evil gods' vassals won't tolerate knights."
"Not necessarily. If we switch our allegiance to the evil gods, we might survive."
"Pfft!"
"If it weren't for this chaotic era, and only by practicing the knights' breathing technique could we stay alive, do you think I'd want to cultivate?"
"I just want to live a peaceful life!"
"You think you can live securely under the rule of evil gods, but when danger comes, you won't even have a chance to resist."
"That's still better than this..."
The group began to argue, their voices gradually becoming louder.
"Shh!"
"Be careful!"
Suddenly, a middle-aged man stopped in his tracks, drew a broadsword from his back, and looked ahead with a serious expression.
At some point, the city ruins had become engulfed in thick fog, and heavy footsteps slowly approached the group.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
The ground shook violently.
Accompanied by a pungent stench, a massive and terrifying figure emerged from the mist, walking slowly.
"One-Eyed Giant!"
What appeared before them was a seven to eight-meter-tall one-eyed giant.
The giant held a huge wolf-tooth club, covered in blood and flesh, and its animal hide had not been washed in who knows how long, mixing with the stench of its body and the blood, forming a natural poisonous gas.
The dense killing intent surged, overwhelming the group, causing them to unconsciously retreat.
For over a decade, this area had been infested with all sorts of terrifying monsters, including man-eating frogs and packs of wolf demons...
Among them, the one-eyed giant was undoubtedly one of the more terrifying ones!
"Ah!"
Someone screamed and fled without regard for the others, triggering chaos within the group.
"Don't panic!"
"Together, we still have a chance!"
"..."
"Damn!"
