With the help of the Assassin Walker's camouflage, Baiyi and the others managed to avoid a small group of skeletons who were playing soccer. Logically speaking, the skeletons' vision and hearing had deteriorated significantly, so there was no way they would be able to see through the Assassin Walker's disguise.
It was true for a normal person, and the first few people managed to avoid it. However, when it was the Hitman's turn, one of the skeleton soldiers accidentally kicked the ball under its feet, which was another skeleton soldier's head, onto the Hitman.
The Hitman Walker spread his arms helplessly, as if to say, "It's all my fault." Then, two long-handled weapons appeared in his hands, and like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, the skeletons were dispatched.
Baiyi did not know whether to laugh or cry. The Hitman Walker's stealth was like the Fairy's Misfortune, Baiyi's Festival, and Mia's Cuteness. It was an inexplicable trait, and Baiyi had no idea who was so despicable as to impose such a trait on them.
"Let's just use my stealth method," the Hitman Walker said. The Hitman Walker picked up his two weapons and led the charge. The Lich Walker waved his green staff and commanded the small group of undead he had gathered along the way to follow the Hitman Walker.
"Hahaha! I like your style! " The Blacksmith Walker laughed heartily as he lifted his cosplay prop and leaped onto the back of the skeletal mammoth. Lady Assassin Walker was brought along as well. Baiyi and the Scholar Walker took to the skies, ready to seize control of the skies.
"If we're going to attack, then we need to be quick. The enemy could return at any time," the Blacksmith Walker said. The Book of Servitude in front of Baiyi's chest began to flip, and a fiery red formation appeared behind him. Then, he began to chant, "Only I know the secrets of truth. As I pray, my body descends to absorb the essence of the elements. From the Void, fire! Lightning! Fire! Purgatory from the Heavens! "
As he finished chanting, a huge amount of fire magic began to gather outside the enemy's castle, and finally condensed into a huge fireball that was spewing hot lava in all directions. It smashed into the defensive forces on the ground, and then broke into many smaller fireballs that rolled around, leaving trails of flowing lava. When it collided with something, it would break further and split into more fireballs, causing even more damage.
If one were to look from above, the wilderness outside the castle would look like a gray canvas that was randomly drawn by a child with a red crayon. In the end, the entire canvas was smeared with a dazzling red.
"Galaron's Abyssal Core?!" The Scholar Walker chimed in. "This legendary fire-elemental forbidden spell is extremely troublesome to prepare, and the materials required to cast it are extremely hard to come by. It has been a long time since anyone has used it. As expected of the Book of Servitude …"
Compared to other fire-type forbidden spells, this spell wasn't as powerful. It focused on physical and fire-based attacks, and getting hit by those fireballs was no laughing matter. At the same time, this spell had the widest range and duration of effect among all fire-type forbidden spells. The enemy would have a hard time dealing with the fireballs, and the lava would melt into the ground. Even after the spell's effect was over, it would leave behind an area of volcanic rock that was uninhabitable and unfarmable.
This spell, which mimicked a natural disaster like a volcanic eruption, was so vicious that it destroyed the surrounding environment. It was one of the most notorious forbidden spells in the world.
However, it was perfect for a situation like this. The lava that went deep into the ground would be able to cleanse the buried undead, so there would be no need to worry about enemies popping up from beneath their feet.
Baiyi's forbidden spell cleared the area, and there was almost no one left standing outside the castle. The Scholar Walker cooperated and cast an ice-type spell called Frozen Path, which opened up a path that led straight to the castle's gate. This way, the Voidwalkers could continue on their way.
"Tsk, this guy is so boring. He doesn't know the joy of battle at all!" The Blacksmith Walker, who was sitting on the skeletal mammoth and holding a bunch of cosplay items in his arms, grumbled to the Assassin Walker. But what about the Assassin Walker? She did not respond to him at all. Instead, she stared at Baiyi in the sky like a love-struck fool. She mumbled, "My idiot is so powerful …"
However, just when the Voidwalkers thought that they had won the battle and were about to pack up and return to the academy, something completely inexplicable happened. In an instant, the hellish scene around them disappeared without a trace. It was as if everything that had happened before was just an illusion that had been seen through by someone.
This strange scene caused everyone to stop in their tracks and stare at the scene in astonishment. Even the Voidwalkers had never encountered such a strange thing before. It was obvious that they had the upper hand, but in the blink of an eye, everything had gone back to normal.
Only Baiyi, who had come into contact with the Laws, understood what had happened. He said in a low voice, "The enemy used some kind of Law Power to teleport the sea of fire to another location!"
"What? How is this possible?! "The Lich Walker was the first to express his disbelief. The Scholar Walker chimed in," How is this possible? How could something like controlling the Laws be so simple? "
"Because it is so simple. The War God once told me not to overcomplicate the Laws. This is the most powerful force in the world, and when it is unleashed, it is as simple as this," Baiyi replied.
"But, isn't that the Arbiter of the Gods? Why would the people here know how to use it? Could it be a Lesser God as well? The God of Space, who keeps company with a pile of smelly bones? "The Blacksmith Walker asked.
"The God of Space is the chatterbox who gave me the Kitty Cat Maid, so I'm sure he's not the owner of this place. He may be a little tacky, but he's not that bad," Baiyi said. "I'm guessing the reason he sent me here to find the answer is because he wants me to help him retrieve the Arbiter's Arbiter's Authority. This guy really likes to play dumb all the time, and now he's falling for his — "
Before Baiyi could finish his sentence, another strange scene happened, and he could not finish his sentence. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from where he had been standing. His companions were nowhere to be seen, and he found himself in a grayish-white hall. In the middle of the hall was a throne made of skeletons, and sitting on it was a green-skinned man.
"Welcome!" The green-skinned man said. "We haven't had any new guests in a long time. I am the owner of this place. You may call me the Grandruler of the Netherspirit, or Your Majesty."
"Where are my companions?" Baiyi stared at the Grandruler and asked.
"My people are welcoming them with open arms. Heehee, they are very hospitable. But you, Hope, will be my guest," the Grandruler said calmly.
"You know who I am?" Baiyi asked in surprise. 'Am I really that powerful? Am I really that powerful? '
"My new servant introduced you to me, and you left a deep impression on him," the Grandruler said. A skeletal sorcerer emerged from behind the throne. Its eye sockets glowed with green will-o '-the-wisps, and it said excitedly, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Hope. I didn't expect to see you here. My name is Pagner. You can call me the Third High Reverend."
"Godsfall? No wonder … "Baiyi nodded." I was wondering why the Godsfall cult is so lowly. The First High Reverend was an Abyss Lord, and the Second High Reverend was the Fairy King. Their statuses were passable, but why did you end up being a skeleton sorcerer living under someone else's roof? You're getting worse and worse … "
"Hmph! Childish mockery! " The skeletal sorcerer shook its head. "Thanks to you, the Godsfall cult has fallen from grace, and we've been hunted down by both the Church and the rest of the world. However, it's a blessing in disguise. I came here by chance and met my new master, the Grandruler of the Dark Spirit! And now, you dare to come here to die? This is an opportunity bestowed upon me by the True God! Hahahahahaha! "
"Phew … Calm down. First, answer my question. There's a lady in your cult named Harllotte. Is she still alive?" Baiyi asked.
"High Deacon Harllotte? That's right. She's still alive, and she's living as a human. You still can't forget her. It looks like keeping her alive was the right decision. What? Worried about her safety? Want to know where she is? I'll be merciful, and I'll let you see her before your soul disappears. You'll be able to watch as her beautiful body is turned into an undead. Trust me, her screams will make you orgasm … "The skeletal sorcerer said with a smirk, as if its plot had succeeded.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken? I'm just checking to see if she's still alive. I'll take care of the rest. "Baiyi waved his hand dismissively." By the way, I'm sure you know me very well, don't you? "
"Of course I do. I know you better than anyone else in this world. Because of my hatred, I know you better than anyone else," the skeletal sorcerer replied coldly.
"Then you should know that I'm not a man who likes to waste my breath," Baiyi said, raising his right hand and squeezing it.
"Heehee! You want to kill me with that black flame of yours? You want to kill the Great Emperor's most loyal servant right in front of him? You're dreaming … Hold on, Your Majesty! No — "Before the skeletal sorcerer could finish his sentence, he was engulfed by the Black Void Flames.
When he was still human and the Third High Reverend, he had been very powerful. However, when he abandoned his dignity and power and willingly became a lowly skeletal sorcerer, he had lost everything. He was like a flea in front of Baiyi. He had lost all of the dignity and power he once had in the Godsfall cult.
Therefore, it was no surprise that he had been crushed to death.
"Interesting power. Very powerful." The Grandruler, who was sitting on his throne, watched the scene unfold in silence. He did not make a move. Instead, he nodded slightly, appreciating Baiyi's Void Energy.
"You didn't save him?" Baiyi asked curiously.
"He has already lost his value and completed his mission. To me, he is no longer of any use. Most importantly, he talks too much … You, on the other hand, I'm actually quite interested in you," the Grandruler said nonchalantly.
He was the Lord of the Undead. Feelings? Loyalty? What did he mean to him?
"What a coincidence. I'm quite interested in you, too." Baiyi clapped his hands and said, "How about this: we ask each other questions, and we both tell the truth. One for one, what do you say?"
"Fair enough. As the guest, you may ask your questions," the Grandruler said generously.
"Where are my friends?" Baiyi repeated the same question.
"You've wasted the chance I've given you. I've already answered your question. My men are receiving them now," the Grandruler replied.
'Tsk tsk, looks like they're in trouble. I wonder if they'll be able to handle it themselves? ' Baiyi thought to himself.
"Now, it's my turn. Who are you?" The Grandruler's question was straightforward.
"A Voidwalker. A survivor from the Banished Lands," Baiyi replied.
"Oh? I know what the Void is. Anyone who can survive in a place like that can't be a living being. No wonder you're able to roam freely in Duat, "the Grandruler muttered." Alright, it's your turn. "
"Do you control a Law Fragment? Or is it some sort of Law Authority? "Baiyi quickly asked the most important question.
"Are you talking about this?" The Grandruler opened his palm to Baiyi, but there seemed to be nothing there. There was nothing there.
Baiyi's expression immediately turned serious. He had come into contact with a Law Fragment before, so he could clearly sense that there was a similar Law Fragment in the Grandruler's palm! Unlike the reward that the War God had left behind for him, this Law Fragment clearly possessed the power of the Laws! All the strange things that had happened earlier could now be explained.
The Law Fragment that the Grandruler wielded allowed him to manipulate space to a certain extent. It allowed him to teleport Mard's village back to where it came from, make the lava disappear, and teleport him to this place.
It was just a Law Fragment, but it was so powerful. Compared to it, the War God did not look like a god who could control space at all. What else could the War God do other than increase the limit on his power output? Send your God's Messenger out to eat other people's rice?
What's more, you're a god who controls space, and you don't even know that you've lost a Law Fragment? You need someone to remind you? You need someone to run errands for you? You don't even need to move? What are you doing up in the sky? Licking the next Goddess of Beauty? Baiyi cursed inwardly.
