chapter-1185
"These annoying Nox bastards. Why do they have to keep pulling bullshit like this?"
A red-haired man appeared from thin air as if he'd been waiting for his cue.
"I guess you never learn, huh."
All eyes turned to him.
"This universe…is not yours to swallow."And he vanished again.
His speed was untouchable.
In but a single second, he made his way through the entire battlefield and pulled every powerful enemy into a group.
Once he was done, he flew up into the air and held his arm out.
"Feel the weight of your sins."
VOOOOOOM!
Every Nox he touched spontaneously combusted. Black and red flames danced around their bodies in proportion to the weight of their sins and burned them to cinders.Cries of agony filled the air.
These flames didn't just target the physical, but the ethereal, this was pain they felt in their souls.
And the Supreme Hedrick was fighting wasn't excluded.
"AAAHHHHHHH!" He roared as his body was engulfed in a wall of flames ten times his size.
Hedrick backed off warily, his eyes filled with bafflement.
"Don't worry about it," the red-haired man said.
"These flames only harm evil. It won't affect you even if you walk into them right now."
The strange yet familiar man spoke with certainty.
Alexander, who appeared once before to save Rose and her group, showed his face again.
But this time, his role wasn't so significant.
He glanced into the atmosphere.
"Hmm, they should be here in a few minutes, so I guess my job is to just take care of the most important parts."
His body flashed away amidst the silent battlefield.
There were still enemies remaining, but even they were frozen in shock.
Elizabeth Golden was in the greatest stupor.
Just a second ago, she felt the cold embrace of death grabbing hold of her.
But now, she was…fine?
That man not only saved her, but used a strange white light to heal the injuries on her body.
That man…
…just who was he?
'Now isn't the time to be dwelling on such trivial facts.'
She was certain.
'Astoria's plan…it worked.'
"Men, raise your swords!" She yelled with every ounce of her being.
"Victory is ours!"
Her words served as a wake-up call.
Right, with such an immense turn, where the majority of the powerful enemies were eliminated…
"VICTORY IS OURS!"
"VICTORY IS OURS!"
"VICTORY IS OURS!"
Their blood boiled with relief and excitement.
They picked up their swords and faced the enemy.
This time, they would not be beaten back like dogs.
This time, they would obliterate those who dared step foot on their land!
***
Alexander moved from battlefield to battlefield after that.
But instead of completely solving the problem, he did the bare minimum necessary before moving on.
Long Chen and Aishia, Rose, Ruyue, and Elena, and the squads led by them and their fellow leaders all met him and received his aid.
Their individual situations were quelled to a point where their current forces could handle them.
Perfectly.
Exactly to that level with no deviation, almost like the work of a god.
Alexander didn't wait for their thanks or questions. After settling those situations, he moved to the Golden Dragon Estate, his eyes cold.
'There isn't much time left.'
He had to rush.
Because out of all these battles, perhaps the least intense one was the most important.
Deep in the Golden Dragon Estate, only a few hundred meters from the hidden bunker where Tian Tang and the Golden Dragon Emperor were, a battle was taking place.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bursts of black mana covered the air, and were just as soon slashed away by arcs of grey light.
"You are good, but this is not nearly enough to stop me!"
A Nox being with draconic horns and a mad grin on his face raced through the air like a comet, his fist outstretching into a heavy punch that landed on Su Ren's blade.
BOOOOOOOOM!
"KEUK…!"
Su Ren coughed several mouthfuls of blood as he was thrown back.
He regained balance in the air and planted his feet on the ground, digging them into the ground to halt his momentum.
The corpses of his squad were already decorating the earth. He was the last one left.
They barely made it in time, but as they'd expected, the enemy this time was a Supreme.
Su Ren couldn't fight him alone.
He never had that kind of power.
However…
"DAMMIT!"
He roared and slashed his twin blades through the air, their paths like twisting dragons as they enhanced each other's power and created a whirlwind of power that roared towards the enemy.
This power was not his.
It was the power granted to him by the sacrifices of his comrades.
They combined their mana upon death to both seal the Supreme's Time Laws and boost Su Ren's strength as much as possible.
The amount of agony they must've gone through to do so…
He refused to let their efforts go to waste!
"YOU WILL DIE HERE!"
He didn't care about his injuries.
His team was willing to end their own lives to give him a chance. He wouldn't let a little pain stop him now.
He approached the Supreme in but an instant, his swords flurrying into motion.
Even for a Supreme, they were hard to track.
'What a tough guy!'
That Supreme, named Drago, was considerably talented in physical combat, but even he was having trouble dodging all of Su Ren's strikes.
They were impossible to predict. The paths of his two blades interlapped in a way where they hid each other's true intentions, and that dangerous mana he wielded was dangerous for any Nox being they could reach.
"Khhh!"
Drago winced through his teeth as cuts piled up on his body.
"Human, you are good, however…"
He grinned madly, spreading his arms and leaving himself open.
Clang!
"…your skill means nothing in front of absolute power!"
BOOM!
Su Ren's blade struck his chest with the sound of metal clashing against metal. In that moment when the shock traveled up his arm and stunned him, the Nox named Drago slammed his fist into Su Ren's skull.
Crack!
His bones definitely shattered that time,
It was hard to think with his vision blurring like so. The world started spinning ever so slightly, but it was more than enough to impede his perception.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
He didn't get the chance to reorient himself. Drago approached in that split second and let loose a barrage of blows that each held power that felt nuclear.
Su Ren's bones shattered and shattered. Even the pieces that survived were shattered further into dust.
He had the motivation to continue fighting, as did he the mana, but with a body like this, how could he?!
"RAAAAAAAAAH!"
He roared. It was guttural with such a broken body, but he roared.
If he couldn't use his body, his mana would have to do!
It manifested outside of him. He closed his eyes and used his awareness to see instead.
The manifestation he created was a Blade God, a mirror of the epithet he was granted.
"I…WILL NOT…FALL!"
His role was the most important.
If the Golden Dragon Emperor's slumber was interrupted, the final piece supporting Beast Emperor Star would crumble.
At that point, it wouldn't matter what they did.
Because the world itself would crumble!
This was Su Ren's last struggle.
He could only put his everything into it and hope it was enough to take down the enemy.
But…
"Phew…!"
A relieved sigh rang out.
"It looks like I'm not too late."
A familiar red-haired man appeared again, ready to save the day.
With so many encounters like this, one had to wonder…
This man named Alexander…
…was he an envoy of Fate itself?
