At this moment, Alex and Aegis had blended into the crowd of shadows. They separated and moved back and forth in areas with the highest concentration of shadows. When Lucifer and Mason entered the steam bath, all they could see was a crowd of shadows moving about. The bright badges on them were blinding.Due to their dense arrangement, they couldn't temporarily distinguish any shadow without a badge. Lucifer spoke in a low voice, "Bring the others here."Although the map was somewhat blurry, when approaching, Lucifer could completely determine that Alex's location was in this steam bath. Mason immediately obeyed the order and left.Lucifer squinted at this chaotic crowd of shadows, also looking at his own map. He headed towards the red dot that seemed closest to him. This red dot moved in a regular pattern, which was why they couldn't see anything unusual. This map was indeed a significant help.Lucifer quickly merged into the crowd of shadows, smoothly moving closer and close
Alex and Aegis are hiding in a narrow alley in the city. Alex checks the paint on his clothes and then looks at Aegis, confirming that neither of them has revealed anything.If this were to happen and the guards appeared, they surely couldn't return to the hotel.If they dared to go back, they would likely become suspects and be apprehended. However, they still need the creature's secretion; otherwise, they won't be able to blend into the streets filled with these creatures tomorrow night.Perhaps the moment they step out, they will be surrounded and attacked by a city of monsters. Alex speaks in a low voice, "We need to go back to the hotel to get the creature's secretion."Aegis, understanding the situation quickly, nods but expresses some concern, "But the guards..."Alex shakes his head, "Act like a normal shadow, be cautious of Lucifer's team members."Those shadows without rank notes.Aegis solemnly nods, and the two of them slowly step out of the narrow alley and onto the st
Alex furrows his brow as he looks at Mason; this young man isn't bad, and his speed is quite impressive. However, in Alex's previous life, he never heard of a young man walking alongside Lucifer or creating some kind of reputation. Perhaps he kept a low profile, avoiding standing out, or maybe he died in some dungeon.However, that's not a concern for Alex at the moment. He looks down to the ground, and Lucifer and another person are getting very close. If they enter the range of his sword, they can be cut down, and that would be disastrous.Alex fires another shot towards Mason, who is flying towards Lucifer. This time, the gunshot directly hits Mason's wing. Mason jumps up immediately, releasing sharp feathers toward Alex. Aegis's shield continues to play its role.At this moment, an arrow suddenly shoots straight towards Alex.Alex opens his eyes wide, his body not responding due to exhaustion.The arrow even pierces through Aegis's shield and continues forward, finally stop
Lucifer blocked Alex's bullet and immediately continued to swing his sword forward in an attack. Alex swiftly evaded, leading their battlefield to a different location, far away from Mason and Aegis's battleground.Though Alex held a dangerous-looking gun, in reality, it only had a single bullet left. If he were to reload, he wouldn't have the strength and speed to contend with Lucifer even for a second!As they distanced themselves from Aegis, Alex suddenly halted and then launched an attack towards Lucifer. Lucifer reacted with incredible agility, immediately stopping and countering Alex's sword.The black flames on his sword suddenly surged intensely, making Alex feel like his face and sword were about to be seared. At that moment, Alex sensed a pungent smell, accompanied by heat spreading over his head.Alex instinctively widened his eyes and quickly stepped back. Despite the risk of burning his hand, he used it to pat out the flames on his head. Seizing the opportunity, Luc
In the meeting room of the authorities, everyone appeared in virtual reality images. Vanessa smiled and said lightly, "It seems that our new colleague has arrived. Surprisingly, he's a 17-year-old boy."Pausing for a moment, she licked her lips and smiled with a hint of playfulness, "But not bad-looking a rather cute appearance."Michael couldn't help but glance at her, his voice emotionless, "You should keep those thoughts to yourself."Vanessa chuckled, "I was just thinking, I can't travel from the Shadow Realm to Mystica just to flirt with him. Besides, the mist in the dangerous borders is thick. Or are you jealous, Michael?"Michael didn't say a word, but the emotionless expression on his face made it clear that there was no jealousy here.People always say he's an emotionless person, and that's not entirely wrong.At this moment, Moon suddenly spoke up, "How do you all assess Alex's strength?"Michael casually spoke, "It's challenging to determine the type of ability, but it's l
"If you remain silent, I won't proceed to the Mystica Tower anymore," Alex threatened.Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the book glowed slightly as if expressing dissatisfaction. Alex paid no attention to it. Finally, as if with no other choice, the book suddenly emitted a intense light, and when Alex opened his eyes again, he found himself inside the space of the book.The book showed signs of discontent, but Alex ignored it and asked again, "So, what is your purpose? Why do you want me to obtain the Mystica Tower key, and what is inside the Mystica Tower?"A line of text suddenly appeared above the book: "[You are the one I chose, that's why you were resurrected.]"Alex raised an eyebrow slightly at this, but he didn't feel much beyond surprise. He knew there was no free lunch in this world, and this book appearing and blessing him was not a natural occurrence.Remaining calm, he nodded and asked, "So, what do you want me to do?"Another line of text appeared: "[Help Lucife
Alex's recent collision had caused his Maybach to tilt to one side, but it still moved quite normally. Rolling down the street, it quickly arrived at Alex's mansion. As Alex and Lucifer stepped out of the car, they spotted someone standing in front of the gate. The person also heard the sound and hurriedly looked over. To their surprise, it was Aegis.Upon seeing Alex, Aegis immediately lit up with joy, wanting to rush towards him. However, upon noticing Lucifer beside Alex, he couldn't help but feel a bit hesitant."Alex, why are you suddenly with him?" Aegis paused, asking. Wasn't Alex afraid of Lucifer chopping his head off?Alex chuckled a bit, saying, "We're friends now. No need to be afraid."As Alex spoke, Lucifer, standing nearby, showed no mercy and stated, "Not friends."Alex: "..."Aegis: "..."Alex quickly moved past that topic, looking at Aegis and asking, "Why did you suddenly come here?"Aegis, with a somewhat tearful expression, replied, "You gave me your address
The next morning, Alex appeared at the entrance of the Mystica government center right on time, only to find Lucifer already waiting there. Lucifer even had a faint mist surrounding him, as if he had been waiting for a long time.Alex waved his hand, "You're here early."Lucifer didn't say anything, just spoke in a deep voice, "If you're here, let's go in."Without further words, Alex led the way inside. Everyone here was familiar with Alex's face. Upon seeing him, they offered a slight bow before quickly assuming their respective positions.No one seemed to question Alex bringing Lucifer here. As soon as they arrived at the president's office, Alex noticed a virtual screen lighting up, displaying a note indicating an incoming important call.Alex couldn't help but mutter, "Should I answer it?"Lucifer said nothing, just looked at him as if silently asking Alex to decide.Taking a deep breath, Alex reluctantly pressed the answer button. In an instant, everything around him began
Only to see the deity of apocalypse raise his hand, a giant dark sphere quickly appeared in the sky, then continuously expanded, growing larger by the day.Leo wasted no time.He raised his hand, the electricity in his hand seemed to have life, dancing incessantly, finally concentrating to attack the giant dark sphere.The thunderous sound echoed incessantly, and the dark sphere began to shrink, albeit slightly.At this moment, a dark chain suddenly plummeted from the sky at an unimaginable speed, heading straight for Leo.Leo quickly dodged but could not avoid the fate of being pierced through the shoulder.The darkness began to madly corrode his flesh, causing him to bite his lip to suppress the urge to cry out in pain.However, he showed no signs of stopping.Others, seeing this situation, also fervently attacked the giant dark sphere while quickly dodging the dark chains.They also realized that the dark sphere forming in the sky was even more dangerous than the two dungeons about
The God of Apocalypse realized that his heart was exposed, but he seemed to pay little attention to it.Either he was overly confident in his own power, or he was certain that Alex couldn't easily crush that heart.Indeed, if killing the God of Apocalypse were easy, the world probably wouldn't have required so many attempts to restart.The God of Apocalypse looked at Alex and Lucifer, his eyes full of interest. "Ha ha, it's almost like there are two chosen ones here. This last time seems more interesting, doesn't it? So the new dish tastes even better, ha ha ha!"After speaking, he raised his hand, and a massive dark energy immediately overflowed, resembling thousands of knives flying towards Alex and Lucifer.Alex wasted no time and swiftly dodged. But the dark energy didn't pursue him; instead, it all converged to attack Lucifer!Lucifer was enveloped in the dark energy, completely separated from Alex. He was trapped in a completely different space, fighting against entirely diffe
Michael seemed to sense something, lifting his head to gaze towards the darkening sky in the distance.Vanessa furrowed her brows, wasting no time to seize this opportunity to attack. She lunged forward, the darkness in her hand transforming into a sword, thrusting straight towards Michael.In the blink of an eye, she seemed on the verge of successfully piercing through his body. But at that very moment, a dazzling light with immense energy suddenly burst forth, exploding.Vanessa was almost instantly pushed backward by this immense force, flying five meters away and tumbling several times on the ground before managing to regain her balance.Her sword of darkness clattered to the ground as she grimaced, spitting out a mouthful of blood.Raising her head, she looked at Michael with a strange gaze. At this moment, Michael's entire being was enveloped in radiant light, with three pairs of bright wings behind his back.He seemed to pause for a moment, casting a glance at Vanessa.His g
The monsters were burned to ashes by Lucifer's flames, yet they seemed undeterred, leaping forward without fear. However, they couldn't hinder Lucifer from what he was about to do. Just as he lifted his sword slightly, the black flames on the blade surged even fiercer. The flames surrounding him were no exception, seeming to want to soar into the sky. Any monsters attempting to block Lucifer were hurled away, consumed by the scorching flames.Lucifer's power began to manifest. [The Judge of the Shadows]A scale appeared behind Lucifer, resembling a judge pronouncing the crimes of the sinners. Lifting his sword, Lucifer's flames gained immense power. They gathered more and more, ultimately forming into a giant fireball atop the blade. The dungeon spread its wings wide, emitting echoing sounds from within as if warning.Simultaneously, more and more monsters poured out from the dungeon as if attempting to drag Lucifer down to hell. But they, too, couldn't escape the fate of bein
At this very moment, in other regions, the war between humanity and monsters surging from dungeons was incessant.However, the battlefield in Celestria was arguably the most severe. A dungeon emerged in the sky, and simultaneously, statues of gods all over Celestria suddenly opened their eyes, their black eyes oozing blood.They flapped their wings, initiating ceaseless attacks everywhere. And Celestria was the only region where the inhabitants did not evacuate. Because of the lack of warning, most of them never anticipated an impending apocalypse.It wasn't until the statues of gods they had always revered and prayed to came to life, attacking them, and the dungeon in the sky opened, continuously spawning monsters, that they truly felt the despair.At this precise moment, those deemed abandoned by the gods, those tainted, emerged! Ron rallied others, "If you want to survive, quickly evacuate to the black market or find suitable refuge! Those with special abilities charge forward.
The monsters kept coming back to life, pouring out from the giant gate.Lucifer looked at them, then glanced back at Leo, his voice low: "Is this the apocalypse?"Leo pursed his lips, saying nothing.But having been revived once, he could clearly see this was only the beginning of the apocalypse. Until the traitor, who was also the medium for the god of the end, appeared, everything was just a prelude.No one knew Leo's thoughts and worries. Others just kept attacking, trying to stop these monsters from growing stronger every day.Leo's lightning shot everywhere, turning the monsters into ashes. Lucifer's fire blazed across the sky, twisting like snakes, devouring the slimy creatures.If hit by bullets, the pieces of their bodies could reassemble into weaker new forms. But with Lucifer's fire or Leo's lightning, these monsters could only meet one fate: turning into dust.But no matter how strong Lucifer's group was, their manpower was still too little compared to the overwhelming
Others remained vigilant as they peered into the mist.Vanessa, on the other hand, lurked behind them, akin to a true monster. Screams suddenly pierced the air, some filled with despair, as if encountering something utterly terrifying. Alex's wind blades wasted no time, either. They snaked around, swiftly severing the necks of those trailing behind. While these individuals might be skilled soldiers, they stood no chance against Alex's group. They might have the numerical advantage, but in such misty conditions, they would quickly become isolated, a moment when they would succumb to the stronger foes. However, at that moment, Cale's voice resounded abruptly, "More footsteps approaching, another army heading this way, extremely fast and numerous!" Upon hearing Cale's words, both Alex and Vanessa couldn't help but furrow their brows. Alex rolled his eyes, his tone grave, "They're intentional. Perhaps the apocalypse has begun to unfold in the capital. They're just buying time, del
Vanessa ascended to the position of President of the Shadow Realm at the young age of 17. She was the chosen successor after a period of turmoil within the Shadow Realm. At that time, not only did outsiders doubt her, but even those within the Shadow Realm harbored little trust in her. In the darkness, countless people looked down on her, waiting for her to falter from her high seat.However, no one dared to bully her because her external capabilities were truly formidable. In front of everyone, Vanessa always projected herself as a confident and generous person, radiating light wherever she went, seemingly unstoppable.Yet only she knew how fearful she truly was, how many nights she silently cried. And yet, in normal times, she always maintained a confident and generous demeanor.During one of the annual meetings among the regions before the advent of wireless communication devices, Vanessa remembered that Leo had invented the wireless communication device right after he assumed
Before leaving the Celestria region, Alex went to find Ron.By this time, the number of contaminated people had increased significantly, and they had even formed a separate organization.The visible surface was just a part of them; in reality, their numbers were much larger.Alex transferred a lot of light energy to Ron. With this, he could also help others alleviate the pain of contamination. After the apocalypse ended, as long as these people remained alive, their bodies would return to normal. If they couldn't return to normal, Alex could only think of ways to help them.Ron looked at Alex, grateful, and said, "You will surely win this battle."Alex looked at the reverent eyes of Ron's group, feeling as though he hadn't done much, yet he had become almost like a deity to them. It was a strange feeling, but Alex didn't resent it. If he received gratitude and respect, he could only try his best to live up to their expectations.They were now walking along the route to the border
