From that moment onwards, from the borders where the flames of war raged to the heart of hell that was constantly changing, the entire sky had become a battlefield for the Sword Saint and the Heretic King!
Even the air of nothingness had turned into formless blades and swords in the turbulence caused by the collision of Supremes. The turbulence swirled rapidly, forming a cruel domain like a meat grinder.
Not a single bird could rise above the clouds six thousand meters above the ground.
This change was enough to shake the entire battle. It was unavoidable that the Ascendants who were fighting each other were distracted.
It had nothing to do with concentration. It was just an instinct in a chaotic battle — who could let such a sharp killing intent fly past them without being moved?
At that moment, the monk hidden in the shadows opened his eyes.
The radiance of the 'Enlightened One' appeared in his pitch-black pupils.
Charles Bennett!
Golden Dawn, Primordial Road, Tier 5 Solidified One — the manifestation of hell's essence and original darkness, Abyss of Nothingness Abu Su!
"Now is the time!"
No matter how the situation changed, the Solidified One who had never wavered raised his hands and quietly put his palms together.
Pop!
As if a bubble had been popped, the entire battlefield suddenly shook.
It was as though nothing had happened. There were no loud noises or tremors, nor were there any signs. However, when all the Ascendants felt the chill behind them and turned their heads, they saw that … the mountain-like Bechymos had already vanished without a trace!
Along with Huai Shi who was above their heads.
On the empty land, there was only darkness and shadows of nothingness left. It could not be touched or interfered with, like the most distant mirage.
It had been swallowed.
In Sumerian mythology, the miracle known as the Origin of Genesis had reappeared here in the form of a calamity!
The height of the heavens had no name.
The richness of the earth has never been given a name!
The Spirit of the Abyss, Abu Su, was the manifestation of this vast primordial emptiness!
Now, the prison that sealed time and space had been created once again. The endless space was nested inwards without any gaps, forming an eternal labyrinth.
Even the Tier 5 Chronos and Vice-Headmaster Isaac couldn't break free from such a seal when they raided the Ivory Tower.
After hiding for a long time, Bennett took advantage of this rare opportunity and made a ruthless move!
In the blink of an eye, Bechymos' connection with the outside world was severed. Together with Huai Shi, they fell into the darkness of the Abyss.
In the deepest part of the labyrinth, Bennett looked down from the void.
His face was expressionless.
The monk who had once been praised as the one closest to the Enlightened One did not hide his killing intent and decisiveness at all.
The labyrinth of space and time closed inwards, rapidly squeezing and eroding all space. The primordial water manifested from the essence of the Abyss was like a strong acid that corroded Bechymos' existence, trying to completely dissolve it in the darkness!
But soon, his eyes went blank for a moment.
Under the corrosion of the poison of inception, Bechymos, which was originally as huge as a mountain, actually began to shrink rapidly … Like a balloon that had long since run out of air, the halo dissipated without a trace. It no longer had the mighty battle formation it displayed in the outside world.
Its stomach was completely empty. All of its reserves had long been emptied!
It was just for show!
Now, after being completely beaten back to its original form, it had turned into a silly dog the size of a calf. It tried to dog paddle in the poisonous waters of the Abyss, clinging onto a huge rock that had yet to dissolve, and shaking its wet butt.
It was shaking!
Bennett woke up from his stiff state. He suddenly looked to the side of the huge dog, as though he had understood something.
"Huai Shi!!!"
Amidst the corrosion of the endless surging poisonous waters, a tape recorder fell out from under Huai Shi's butt. As it rapidly dissolved, it was still playing nonstop lines such as "Gaia may be big, but we have nowhere to retreat. Behind us is the Realm of Discovery."
There were also several notes that could help actors deepen their memory …
As for Huai Shi, he didn't seem to understand the situation at all.
He was still grinning foolishly.
He wriggled a little in the poisonous pool, raised his hand, and scratched his itchy butt.
And so, behind his corroded pants, a glittering golden tail was revealed … swinging nimbly with the wind.
What the hell!
Under the broken disguise, four monkey-like faces appeared from the front, back, left, and right of the head. When the eight hands pulled out their own hammers, tridents, holy bottles, sharp swords, treasured sabers, and other weapons … even the most obtuse person should have understood.
How was this a tool of Celestial genealogy?!
This was clearly India's living miracle, Hanuman!
It wasn't just Bechymos. Even the Sophora poems were f * cking fake!
But it was real!
Amidst the gale that blew against his face, a horrifying realization and conjecture emerged in Bennett's mind.
Where the hell did he go?!
.
Two days ago, when the final communication was completed and all the plans were arranged properly, Liz, who represented the American genealogy, asked a final question.
"Since everyone has a clear division of labor and has their own tasks, what about you?"
She stared fixedly at her old rival in the projection, smelling an even more familiar scam from that familiar face. "Huai Shi, what are you going to do?"
"Me?" “
Huai Shi smiled and winked at her.
"I'm going to send them off."
It was as though everyone was playing a game together.
Some were the mid laner, some were the support, some were the jungler, and some were the flank … Some were in charge of leeching, some were in charge of snatching creeps from their teammates, and some were in charge of AFK.
And since there was always someone who had to send them off …
Then, why can't this person be me?
.
Presently, when Bechymos was shrouded by the Shadow of the Abyss, it was almost impossible to distinguish between the front and back of the Shadow of the Abyss.
At the very back of Inferno, the place that was currently the most defenseless and isolated from the world.
In front of the gate of that pale white city, someone took off the disposable invisibility cloak made by Vulcan, the God of Fire, raised his head, and flashed a hearty smile at the city gate that was close at hand.
In that instant, all the projections in the gloomy palace turned their heads abruptly. Amidst the ear-piercing alarm, the scene from the gate was revealed to everyone.
Even Aleister, who had been maintaining his calm all this while, turned his head abruptly and frowned.
Dumbfounded.
In the image, the Ascendant, who now represented Celestial genealogy, smiled reservedly, as though he happened to pass by on his way back from grocery shopping, relaxed and happy.
He raised two fingers.
As though he was knocking on a door, he knocked twice in the air.
“Konckkonck~”
Just like the opening of those old jokes and skits, he used the onomatopoeia of knocking on the door as a greeting to his opponents within the city.
Dong dong dong dong!
Someone was knocking on the door!
Meanwhile, the masters within the gate were stunned on the spot, looking at each other in dismay. In this brief moment of deathly silence, no one asked a question. Only a crisp voice filled with enthusiasm and anticipation spread in the silence, anticipating a response.
Who?
Who's outside the gate?
Of course, it's fate, my friend.
It was as though a mocking tone rang out in the illusion, conveying this contemptuous laughter to everyone's ears in a soft whisper.
Now, your fate is knocking on the door!
At that moment, in the image, the gentle smile could no longer conceal the ferocious malice. The hatred and anger hidden under the handsome appearance gushed out like a torrent!
Under Hillghost's open lapel, in the crack on his chest, the blood of Gaia, which was generously given by the Russian Federation genealogy, once again appeared with a magnificent light.
But this time, the dazzling light was no longer gentle. Instead, it surged like a raging fire, violently igniting him, engulfing him, and enveloping him in flames!
The pain of his soul trembling spread.
Huai Shi couldn't help but bend down, open his mouth, and roar.
A familiar voice rang in his ears once again.
It was a question from his soul.
Huai Shi, what do you want?
"I want to become … what I used to be!"
Huai Shi covered his twitching face and squeezed out a happy smile. Just like that, he allowed the uncontrollable power to tear his body apart. Darkness gushed out, burning his body from the inside out.
However, within the surging flames, a hoarse voice reverberated.
"I will become the embodiment of the utopia!
"I will follow the departed pioneers —"
It was a shattered soul burning in the endless flames. It was a declaration to the sky, the earth, the endless world, and the enemy in front of it.
"I will continue this hatred once again!"
The endless flames dissipated at this moment, and in their place was a crack that led to hell. Endless darkness gushed out, and in the darkness, the dead monsters screamed.
Despair, resistance, struggle, killing, sacrifice, and even giving up everything …
Born from the deepest hell, born from the cruelest battlefield, transformed from countless frozen souls, and returned from death and oblivion!
It had once again descended on this long-lost world!
At that moment, the sacrifice and exchange finally ended.
On the chessboard, Huai Shi's trembling cards were completely torn apart by an invisible force.
But then, the shattered cards reassembled under the catalysis of Gaia's blood. The borders around the constantly changing cards turned from silver to gold, and then the resplendent color of diamonds appeared. Finally, they lost all color and condensed into a lightless pitch-black.
Judge Huai Shi had disappeared without a trace.
Now, there was only … endless darkness that soared into the sky!
The torrent raged, whipped the earth, and tore the sky apart. In the end, in the rolling darkness, the upside-down emblem of the utopia was ignited once again.
The silent monster woke up from its deepest dream. Its scarlet eyes were like burning stars.
It made a final declaration to the trembling mortal world and its former enemy.
It told them:
"I am … Nautilus!"
Now, a brand-new record of events shrouded in pitch-black flames descended onto the chessboard. Under the protection and pursuit of endless calamities, it revealed its name.
[Inquisitor Nautilus]
After seventy years, the judgment from the utopia returned from the deepest part of hell!
