Chapter 591: 11.117 First Green Star - Punishment World: 'Purgatory' (14)
Silence ascended in the arena.
The scene of an angel with four wings digging into a player's heart shocked everyone to the core. They couldn't believe that one would die instantly like under the work of this pure and sacred-looking Archangel.
A scene of a white angel tainted with crimson blood was too contrasting to the holy image of an angel in the minds of the players. To think angels of this world killed humans like nothing. If not for their holy aura and white feathered wings, the humans would think of them as not that worse of a demon.
Yu Suya attacked Archangel Ming. She wanted to use her claws at him but she was dodging when she tried to kick him the flew away. She also wanted to take back the heart of Qi Yun which he took away but she couldn't fly as those angels can.
Qi Lanyu whose face is covered in tears as he cradles her brother's body close to her. Her cries were agonizing.
"Big brother? Brother, wake up. Wake up please~" said Qi Lanyu with a pleading voice as she cries out. She had totally forgotten about their special physique for the whole day.
Her cries were stifled when she witnessed her brother's empty chest and saw the majestic scene of his heart growing out and started beating even the open gus.h.i.+ng wound full of blood closes under her gaze. She was speechless in shock and astonishment.
Qi Lanyu's thoughts at the scene, 'The immortality for the whole day is real?!'
Yu Suya could fly and had no other choice but to control thunder falling from the sky to attack Archangel Ming.
Crizz~ Boom! Boom! Boom!
Tsk!
"Why couldn't I hit him at all!?" Thoughts of Yu Suya while attacking the man who killed her brother-in-law.
Yu Suya clicked her tongue seeing the stupid angel judge all her attacks. He wanted to increase the speed of her attacks when she saw him fly towards Lan She. Unlike when looking at them, he had a kind smile as he talks to Lan She.
Archangel Ming spoke, "Player Lan She, I have completed what you ask me to. The one you wanted me to meet is dead so this one thinks that there is no need for a War Angel like yourself to play around with mortals and other lower races than our Angel Race."
Lan She stared at him with contempt in his eyes yet a calm expression while Chu Mo sn.i.g.g.e.red at him and spoke out.
Chu Mo said, "Look behind, Dear Archangel~"
Archangel Ming look muddled at Lan She and Chu Mo's reaction but when he saw that Vampire Duke agape while staring at something behind him realized things aren't normal. He was only halfway to their side and behind him is the ground. When he turned around looming so confused a water whip suddenly wraps around his neck.
Whoos.h.!.+
He was dumbfounded not by the attack but by the face of the person who had attacked him. It was the very same player he had just killed a few minutes ago. Player Qi Yun, the Mermaid King.
Feeling the tightening water whip on his neck, Qi Yun covered in his own blood gave the Archangel a menacing gaze. The hole on his chest had closed up as if there were no wounds at all, if not for the hole on Qi Yun's clothes no one would believe this man. Everyone was stunned to see the Mermaid King alive. They had after all seen him get his heart dug out by an angel.
Archangel Ming exclaimed, "How are you still alive!?"
With a sullen look on his face, Qi Yun replies, "How dare you kill me, a.s.shole!? Don't you know how painful getting killed by getting your heart dugout!?" he was screaming with anger, sadness and disbelief.
Pulling the water whip with all their strength, Archangel Ming fell to the ground. Even getting other players involved and killed on the spot, Archangel Ming remained unharmed and covered in dirt. He also stood up removing the dirt on him nonchalantly. This last attack obviously did not affect him at all.
His expression turned a bit serious when he looked at Qi Yun and the other players that seems to be on his side. He slowly raised his hand and light appeared at the end of his fingers pointing at Qi Lanyu. Seeing this Yu Suya didn't hesitate to stand in front of her lover and Qi Yun did the same way while yelling at him.
Qi Yun yells, "b.a.s.t.a.r.d! What are you trying to do?!"
Archangel Ming used Holy Ray to attack. A laser or beam type attack with power enough to penetrate even steel.
"Holy Ray..."
To protect his siblings Qi Yun created a thick wall of water and froze it to ice. But unfortunately, it wasn't tough enough to block an attack from a DemiG.o.d.
Zane and An Yuan screamed, "Dodge it!"
It was already too late for them to dodge and Qi Yun had no other choice but to push down his siblings to avoid the attack. The holy ray penetrated his stomach leaving a huge hole with the burning scent of flesh.
His mouth was full of thick blood mixed with his mashed internal organs, Qi Yun died once again but this time he got used to it and died having to lose consciousness as his body regenerates at a fast rate which shocked everyone.
"He is regenerating!?"
"He is still alive after that!?"
"Impossible! What kind of skill is this!?"
"Hyper Regeneration!? But even for G.o.ds that is rare!!"
"How come a mortal that hasn't even reached the demiG.o.d level has such special skill!?"
Outside the barriers, the leaders of each race all watch the scene with disbelief. They knew that what Qi Yun is using is not a skill as they couldn't feel any hints of mana whenever his body regenerates. Plus even Hyper Regeneration couldn't revive a die. In short, what he is using is not a skill but a blessing instead.
Fallen G.o.d Lucien spoke, "No this is not a skill. I only feel divinity whenever that human player dies. But even the Ruler G.o.d doesn't possess such kind of blessing. This is another blessing from another True G.o.d that is not originally from this world."
"If that True G.o.d exists why did he get involved with these humans!? Isn't it more understandable if he looks for the people of our Empyrean Domain?" said Seraphim Xu.
"Most G.o.ds acts on whims. The more dangerous they are the more unpredictable they act."
"Seraphim Xu, you are not thinking of taking this Siren with you do you?"
"So what if I do?"
"What would happen to your legion if the G.o.d behind them made his move? Hahaha~ I guess your angel race would disappear then~"
"Shut up, Demon!"
"Either way, I do not think only that mortal has this blessing. I need to check." said the Fallen G.o.d Lucien as he tried to contact his servant the Vampire Duke and give his command through divine sense. Most G.o.ds can do such a thing and it is normal for them to give orders that way.
Vampire Duke Sylvie was watching the scene of an Archangel being played by human using numbers. He couldn't help but feels that it serves him right. In the first place, the Angel and Fallen races hated each other's guts. He didn't feel good with this angel being near him, he felt melting with how pure the holy aura emitting from him. Light is the weakness of his race after all.
Suddenly while enjoying the scene of the Archangel being thrashed, the voice of his Lord resounds in his mind.
{Duke Sylvie could you hear me?}
'My Lord? Yes, this servant of G.o.d could hear your voice.' responded Sylvie in his mind.
{This Deity had an order for you. Do you see those other human players attacking that Archangel? I want you to kill all of them at the same time. There is something this lord wanted to check about.}
'As you wish, my lord!' answered Sylvie to his lord's command.
Sylvie wanted to check on Lan She and Chu Mo if they were going to stop him if he join the fight. But when he turns around he only saw Chu Mo smiling at him with a knowing smile while Lan She was yawning as he took some sweets from his storage to eat. They clearly don't care about those players on the ground. As if they were only here to observe and watch that's all.
It left the Vampire Duke bewildered as, to why these two are acting like this. He truly could understand the meaning of their actions.
"You two wouldn't get involved with those humans? Aren't you're in the same team?" asked Sylvie.
Chu Mo replied, "Yes and No. Yes, we are on the same team and No, we wouldn't get involved with their fight. Moreover, no matter how much you struggle they wouldn't die at all. In the end, it would only be you guys who would get tired. So we don't have to get involved."
"We won't make a move unless your leaders made theirs. Go do what you were ordered," said Lan She. Secretly, he is using a hypnosis spell on him trying to loosen the seal in his memories. He wasn't proficient with such delicate repairing but he could do so slowly.
The vampire duke was shocked to hear the words Lan She had said, "You know!? How can you know?" unknown to him the effects of the spell Lan She cast on him are very effective. Chu Mo talked nonsense just to ensure the latter wouldn't notice what his lover had done to him.
Chu Mo just grinned and said, "Well~ we just know that's why."
The face of the Vampire Duke turned dark as he felt this couple is annoying intentionally, especially Chu Mo who even had the gall to grin at him like a silly dog.
"I hope you don't regret your words," said Sylvie.
He started commanding the lesser vampires that come with him. These vampires were only a ranker weaker than he does yet their strength is beyond what a normal Awakened player could have.
{Kill those players!} Ordered Sylvie while pointing at Han Ya and his team.
The bats surrounding him had all flown down targeting Han Ya and the rest. The first one to notice is not Han Ya who is the strongest in the group but instead Zane who wields the same power as the Vampire Duke.
Zane awakened his pureblood bloodline from the Blood Race. Since he was born as a vampire since birth his blood is purer than a converted vampire-like Sylvie. Even if the latter had the strength of a demiG.o.d, Zane can dominate his control over their race as he was their progenitor.
With crimson irises as if dyed in fresh blood, skin pale as white as snow, fangs that no humans should have, and strength beyond any humans. Zane glared at the incoming group of bats.
He only needs to utter one word for his race to perish. His words are absolute law for the Blood Race. To them, their bloodline would never lie.
{Peris.h.!.+}commanded Zane.
Kyakkkk~ Bang! Bang! Bang!
Those bats intending to attack them had all imploded by themselves. Whether it was against their will or not, no one from the Blood Race could deny the orders of their progenitor.
The vampire duke Sylvie wasn't the only one to see such a scene. Even the leader of the Fallen Race which Sylvie was into was shocked to see Zane's awakened form.
Even Seraphim Xu's face doesn't look good at this moment. As one of the oldest deities in the Empyrean Realm. He knew about a few unique existences that were outside the normal knowledge. He recognized Zane's appearance and knew that this wasn't a simple awakening a player would have. But a full awakening of bloodline, the kind which would allow one to receive a unique awakening.
"This human is a direct descendant of that incomplete being yet possessed the strength of a G.o.d," mumbled Seraphim Xu in astonishment.
Gritting his teeth together in anger, the Fallen G.o.d Lucien had spoken with a cold tone.
"The ancestral and the purest bloodline of all blood races. The most unique existence in the race of vampires and the being, the whole blood race is treated as G.o.d. Vampire Progenitor, Romanian Vlad III Drculea!"
