v2 Chapter 896: the beginning of the war

On a desert island hundreds of nautical miles away from the festival island, Krosfia took Abner's letter from the magic wolf messenger, and after reading it several times, did she respond to Ms. Helen and "greedy" who were not far away. Ms. Ksenia said:

"He asked us to act in the early hours of April 1 to stop the 'Rose School' and the 'Nos Family' demigods who wanted to enter the island..."

Having said that, she paused, looked at Madam Greed again, and added, "You hide in the dark first, as a support... Don't take action unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Greed" Ksenia nodded when she heard the words, and she had no objection to this. After several months of subtle "hypnosis", she now almost regards Krosfia as the closest person, even the sisters in the clan can't compare with her.

...

At the same time, the "prophet" Thales, who is pretending to be a high-level esoteric order, and Isabella, the former Princess of Lenburg, who is looking for something on the "Golden Dream", feel that their "tower" is touched at the same time, and then received an oracle.

Immediately afterwards, the former quickly left the stronghold, flew to a small port dozens of miles away, and stopped one of the three major demon families who were going to sea, the Patriarch of the Belial Family, the "Whisperer", the succubus Yarubed? Beria.

"Beautiful lady, can you slow down your steps and have a romantic encounter with me?" Thales smiled and invited the other party.

According to the "prophecy" given by the gods, although the patriarch of the Beria family surrendered to the North family, his loyalty to it was not firm.

Yarubed sized Thales a few times with dazzling golden pupils, then nodded, seemingly satisfied with the appearance of the other party, then a charming smile formed on the corners of his mouth, and said in a charming tone: "It depends on Could you please make me happy?"

She didn't plan to work hard for others, but she didn't dare to go against the will of the North family, so she had to participate in an event she didn't understand at all.

But now that someone is blocking her, she has an excuse, and she is happy to "fight" in other ways.

Thales also showed a sincere and charming smile, and said to himself: "It will definitely satisfy you."

...

On the other side, Isabella asked "Lieutenant General Iceberg" Edwina to change her course suddenly, and after sailing for about an hour, she just blocked a ship nearly 200 meters long, and the front and back were high like a crescent moon. A route with huge ships painted with black tombstone sails.

That is the flagship "Death" of the "Undying King" Agaritu!

Just when all the crew members, including Edwina, were facing a big enemy, the "Death" suddenly turned and moved away from here at an unprecedented speed.

Run, run... The crew on the "Golden Dream" were a little sluggish for a while.

Soon, "Death" disappeared from their sight.

Seeing this, Princess Isabella couldn't help but sighed: "As expected of an Extraordinary of the 'Devil' pathway, I just had an idea when I was discovered by him."

"Agarito is never an enemy of a true demigod..." Edwina muttered to herself thoughtfully, then turned to her teacher, a hint of curiosity flashed in her light blue eyes, "Teacher , why did you block the route of the 'Death'?"

"It's just to let him take a detour, so that he can cross the 'Rage Sea' a day or two later... As for the specific reason, I don't know."

After all, the intention of the gods cannot be guessed at will... Isabella said silently.

Edwina looked at the teacher's secretive appearance, and roughly guessed the reason. After all, she had also received an oracle before.

"It won't be related to Abner again, will it?" This thought flashed in her mind, and Edwina gave an order without hesitation to let the "Golden Dream" sail at full speed and "bite" the "Death". ”, delaying it for a few more days.

...

In the early morning of April 1, the avatar "Owen" standing on the top floor of the manor looked at the dark red sea under the moonlight and waited quietly for something.

Soon, the calm water fluctuated violently, and in less than a minute, one huge wave after another slapped the beach and the port, and the water level rose rapidly with the arrival of these waves.

Just five minutes later, the seawater had soaked into the main building of Abner's manor, and it continued to rise.

But at this moment, the sea water quickly receded, and instead a sea monster larger than the main building of the manor appeared on the beach of the coastline.

This sea monster is blue in color, with black eyes all over its body, and shells with special "seaweed" appear in the void behind it, just like Abner on the fifth floor of the "Dreamland Labyrinth Tower". The "prophecy" scene seen in the Temple of Trials is exactly the same.

At the beginning, Abner didn't know what those shells with "seaweed" were, but now that I think about it, the eight achievements are its sublimated "learning space", and those so-called "seaweed" are actually the knowledge it reserves!

"It seems that my previous guess was correct. After being promoted to Sequence 4, the 'learning space' in front of the demigods may become part of its own incomplete mythological form...

"This sea monster has even revealed a part of its semi-mythical form, and it's in a really bad state!

"Fortunately, most of those 'shells' are still illusory, and they have only their shape, and their essence is not revealed much... Otherwise, those who witness it on the island are afraid that they will die or mutate on the spot.

"But even so, those low-sequence Beyonders and ordinary people who see it will be mentally and emotionally unstable."

Thinking of this, Abner observed the navy soldiers on the outskirts of the manor, as well as the pirates farther away, and found that they really started to get restless.

The first wave of "welcoming" the sea monsters near the beach was actually the slaves on the island... But since neither Abner nor Howl wanted the ceremony to be successfully completed, it was natural to deal with these soldiers who might become unstable factors first. and pirates...

And Abner has already confirmed that every one of them is worthless!

Only such a person will be regarded as a sacrifice containing the desire to "kill".

In this regard, although "Deep Sea Vice Admiral" didn't quite understand what the new supervisor of the Delian family was doing, he was happy to comply.

As for the sea monster, it doesn't care which one it "eats" first... so it's not alarmed.

Seeing that the sea monster was in place, the ceremony could begin. Abner looked down at the "Deep Sea Vice Admiral" Hal Constantine outside the manor, and then used his "manipulator" ability to "infect" the crowd. The restless mind of the navy made them instantly red-eyed and killed the pirates.

On the other hand, "Deep Sea Vice Admiral" Hal also ignited the impulsive emotions of the pirates because of the conflict between his subordinates and the navy, which he deliberately provoked along the way, and rushed to the navy one by one.

When the two parties were intertwined, and after the first deceased, or the sacrifice, the surroundings of the island seemed to be suddenly isolated from reality and merged into a layer of "shadow".

...

In an underwater cave outside the island, Abner's body hidden here opened the "Pure White Eye" and carefully "analyzed" the layer of "shadow" outside the island.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze, frowned, and said silently to himself:

"It turns out that the entire island was pulled into a layer of phantom projected by the 'shadow world'... It has been isolated from reality, but it is not completely isolated...

"In this way, if you want to get in, you just need to cross the boundary between reality and shadow, and it's not difficult.

"But thinking about it, I'm afraid it won't be that easy!

"Unless you use the corresponding authority or have the influence of the 'source quality' of the same person, it is difficult for an angel to come out even if he enters.

"It seems that my clone won't be able to go out until at least May 1st... After all, he doesn't have a 'Pure White Eye'...

"That's fine, the angels and demigods who came to help shouldn't go in easily, that is to say, no one knows what happened inside...

"At that time, if the 'Lieutenant Admiral Deep Sea' takes all the blame, I may not need to give up the identity of my Owen clone!"

As soon as Abner thought of this, a message came from the "Pure White Eye": "Lieutenant General of the Deep Sea" requested to use the "secret technique" to get rid of control.

After thinking for a while, Abner gave a positive reply, and then he took out the "stealing charm" made of Amon's "Insect of Time", and arranged a ceremony with this to Mr. Fool. Pray for a temporary increase in its power.

Klein, who had been waiting above the gray fog for a long time, did not hesitate to use the "wrong card" to leverage the power above the gray fog after seeing the expanding "Crimson Star" and bestowed it on the "Tower" On that spell, sir.

...

On the island, the "Deep Sea Admiral" finally completed the secret technique taught by the mysterious man before being pulled into the "Master"'s mind by the sea monster to preside over the "Deep Sea Festival" ceremony.

Immediately afterwards, an ethereal voice sounded in his ear, and the voice said in ancient Hermes:

"destiny!"

As the long and difficult ancient Hermes words echoed, "Lieutenant General of the Deep Sea" Hal suddenly felt a sense of relief, unprecedented relief.

No, it's not what he's done before, it's a feeling he can only have in the years before he sacrificed his hometown and town.

This is freedom! It turned out to be a success! Praise "Unknown"! Hal Constantine had a tear from the corner of his eye, but he wiped it away, and then ran toward the interior of the island without looking back.

When he did this, he had to stay away from the sea monsters, so as not to be caught again by the furious opponent, and to be affected by the inevitable war...

Second, he wanted to protect the relatives of "Ms. Longwei"! Although the mysterious man didn't ask him to do so, he got the powerful foreign aid this time through... In the words of the Great Emperor Roselle, he got it through the three "touching porcelain" Black Throne...

No matter what that being had to do with those three, there was nothing wrong with protecting their loved ones, and perhaps it would be safer to be with their loved ones.

Just as Hal ran to the inland town, the clone "Owen" who exchanged the "manipulated" fate to himself entered an illusory space in an instant.

He looked up and found that it was a city like a myth.

Then, without induction, Abner naturally knew the name of the city - "Laleye".

Abner twitched the corners of his mouth and said to himself: When the "God of Luck" originally put the characteristics of this sea monster, did he instill some strange knowledge?

Speaking of which, it's actually quite appropriate.

I remember that "Deep Sea Admiral" Hal mentioned that this sea monster is very good at dreaming... and "Lalaiye"'s nickname "Abyss City" also matches its identity that once contained the "Shadow World" brand... …

Before Abner could finish thinking, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. The city just now disappeared, and a small town took its place.

Obviously, the sea monster found out that his family members had been ripped off, and wanted to trap him in his own spiritual world~lightnovelpub.net~ so that he would be transformed by "pollution" like a "deep sea lieutenant".

In response to this, Abner calmly looked around, then shook his head and smiled: "Oh, Innsmouth Town... Do you want to trap me with such a scene?

"Well, if I didn't have the protection of the 'Unknown Land', I should have lost my mind by now, and I don't remember anything, then it's really possible to become its dependents in this town...

"It's a pity... tsk, I'm in charge of the "Necronomicon" of the traveler's predecessors, your characteristics should be related to me!"

...

Just when the sea monster noticed the abnormality in his mind, in the navy that was fighting against pirates, an officer's breath suddenly changed, and then his body swelled rapidly, with horns on his head and bat wings on his back, turning into a A huge monster with a height of four meters.

At the same time, everyone who saw him, whether it was a pirate or a navy, swelled up uncontrollably, and then his entire body exploded.

He... No, it should be said that after he completes his teleportation, he will reach out and grab Owen from the manor and Hal who fled to the town.

No matter who caused the crisis, as long as it is brought under control, there will be no problem.

But before his action was completed, he was surrounded by black mist.

Then, the demon saw a woman in her twenties. She had plump lips, dark gray eyes, a pretty face, and was wearing a rather distinctive skirt and armor.

"Tamara? Lyticia Tamara? You still exist?!" The angel of the demon pathway who came was incredulous.

The woman in the black mist chuckled, but said in a cold tone: "Long time no see, El North... You still look so disgusting."
