How strange.
The situation isn't right.
As the Soul Shrieker observed the Bannacle-ending Hound, it was doubtful.
During the previous battle, this Black Dog's body was filled with the ancient and powerful power of Death.
But now, not a single strand of power of Death could be sensed from Black Dog's body.
— — what exactly is this guy thinking?
Staring closely at him, the Soul Shrieker recalled the past of the seven Holy Churches.
After the change of eras and countless hardships, the seven Holy Churches had already become empty shells, manipulated by entities from the Abyss to control the entire Strife Zones.
The remaining Demigods of the Holy Churches never had any objections to this.
In fact, for the sake of survival, they would choose to obey and cooperate.
But now, at this very moment, the Bannacle-ending Hound of the Holy Church of Death had awakened the power of the Death God.
It managed to nullify two of its attacks in a row.
The Soul Shrieker was becoming more and more cautious.
「「 It seems you have become an enemy worthy of me taking seriously 」 the Soul Shrieker's male voice spoke.
Following that, its female voice shrieked: 「 Let us fight to the death! Let the eras decide whether their leader will be an ancient Deity from the distant past, or the vast and boiling [Chaos]! 」
The Soul Shrieker stared closely at Black Dog as its presence slowly rose.
— — -it was preparing to fight to the death!
— — however, the Soul Shrieker found it strange that as its presence rose, Black Dog's tail was clamped tighter and tighter.
It seems it was also preparing for its final battle.
The Soul Shrieker slowly displayed a cruel smile.
Very well, come, let us have a frenzied battle!
Black Dog immediately noticed the change in its attitude.
Black Dog smirked, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth: 「 Very well, let me tell you, the power of a Deity is not something you can fight against 」
It prepared to attack.
Recalling the two battles from before, the Soul Shrieker couldn't help but cautiously assume a defensive stance.
Following that, as if feeling annoyed by its own reaction, the Soul Shrieker roared: 「『Death cannot stop my path, and neither can you! 」』
It quickly strode towards Black Dog.
Seeing that, Black Dog suddenly shouted:
"Wait!"
The Soul Shrieker didn't understand what was happening and paused.
Black Dog stared at it and said hatefully, "Despicable bastard, how dare you send people to destroy our temple during our final battle!"
The Soul Shrieker was surprised.
Black Dog angrily shouted: "Soul Shrieker, you're not a true warrior, you're trying to chase me away!"
After that, its body quickly shrank and turned into a Black Dog.
Black Dog didn't stop and hurriedly headed towards the Strife Zones.
Its speed was extremely fast, as if it was rushing with all its might.
From the looks of it, it seemed to be in a hurry to save the temple.
Several breaths of time later.
Black Dog was far away.
The Soul Shrieker stood still for a few moments.
What was going on?
I … didn't send people to destroy the Shrine of Death …
Just as it was about to give chase, it immediately stopped.
Why would I chase it?
Wouldn't it be a waste of my time to chase after him and fight him?
What does what happens in the Death Shrine have to do with me?
The Soul Shrieker slowly regained its senses.
It turned around and looked towards the Mystic Zones' direction.
Now, there was no one to stand in its way.
「『We've wasted too much time, I need to hurry up! 」』
The Soul Shrieker muttered.
Roar — — -
Amidst the reverberations of the void, a shadow the size of a giant galaxy slowly approached it.
The Abyssal Behemoth.
Its speed was the fastest within the Abyss, capable of traversing several worlds at once.
The Soul Shrieker leapt onto the Abyssal Behemoth's back and quickly left this area of the space vortex.
Black Dog was heading in the opposite direction.
Only when he noticed that the Soul Shrieker wasn't chasing after him and instead sped up did he sigh in relief.
This was too dangerous, it's fortunate that I wasn't eaten in the end.
「 Hmph, fool, I still managed to escape with my life 」
Black Dog coldly said.
His tail was raised high, happily swinging to both sides.
For some reason, his tail suddenly stopped.
Black Dog sighed and muttered: "Hah, this is all I can do, I hope that Anna and the others will succeed"
…
Let's rewind time a bit.
The Bramble Bird Kingdom.
The royal palace.
Inside a certain spacious room.
A man opened his eyes and sat up on his bed.
He paused briefly.
"My wounds have all been treated …"
"It seems someone saved me at the very last moment"
The man fell back down, using his hands as a pillow behind his head and spoke with a troubled tone: "For an existence like me to be saved by someone … how shameful"
"— — -should I kill this person who saved me, or should I think of a way to repay him?"
"How troublesome"
The man muttered a few words, then slowly picked up a fragrant scent.
He suddenly noticed that he was hungry.
The man stood up, got off the bed, and looked around.
The carpet was soft and luxurious, as soon as he stepped on it, he could feel the faint aura of life spreading from his feet to his limbs.
On the opposite side of the bed, there was a long table made of pure gold. A sumptuous feast of steaming hot food was placed on top of it.
At the corner of the table were two pairs of black-rimmed glasses, as well as a letter.
The man walked over, took the letter, and read it.
What was written on it was:
"Your glasses are broken, so we've made a new pair for you according to the same ratio. Although the material is a bit different, the effect is the same, I hope you don't mind"
"Your injuries are very serious. Please rest well. If you need anything, just ring the bell on the table, and a servant will come to listen to your orders."
The man put the letter down and picked up a pair of black-rimmed glasses.
This was his original pair, not only were the lenses broken, but the frame was also twisted.
— — -when I saw someone wearing glasses, I thought they looked good, so I had Magic Dragon buy one for me.
— — -who would've thought it would be broken so quickly.
The man picked up the other pair of glasses.
This was a perfect pair of glasses, light, sturdy, clear, automatic dust removal, and was also resistant to all five elements.
"Tch …"
The man put on the black-rimmed glasses and sat down in front of the table.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, the man felt even hungrier.
"Anyway, let's eat first, if the food is good, I won't kill you"
After saying so, the man began to eat.
At first, he ate very slowly, but not too long after, his eating speed was like a tornado sweeping through the clouds, quickly sweeping away every plate of food.
"Ah … how delicious"
"The energy contained in this crab is exactly what I need"
"Ah? So this is the legendary Star Sea Lobster? Last time, Magic Dragon actually said that we didn't have enough money to eat this, really … "
"Delicious, delicious!"
The man couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
— — -don't be ridiculous, this is the richest country in the 900 million World Layers.
How could the food prepared by the ruler of this country possibly be bad?
The man happily finished his meal, then tried drinking a type of bubbling black liquid.
"Ah, this black bubbling liquid, why does drinking it make me feel happy?"
The man smiled and put the glass down.
He was very satisfied with this meal.
The man thought for a bit, then took out a book from the void of space.
"After I fell unconscious" the man said.
The book opened by itself.
Page after page of vivid and lifelike drawings entered his eyes.
The wooden arm grabbing him, the Bramble Great Tree ship, the conversation between Gu Qing Shan, Lola and Lin, as well as everything that happened afterwards were all displayed on the book.
The man stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and recalled something.
"The Book of Prophesized Destinies once told me to find this person, who would've thought that we would meet again in the form of saving and being saved"
He sighed emotionally.
The book continued to flip.
The man was engrossed in reading the situation on the page until he reached the last page.
The last page depicted the scene of Gu Qing Shan's group leaving the room, about to step onto the ceremonial platform.
In fact, when the man was reading this page, the ceremony in the palace had also reached this point.
Gu Qing Shan and Jang Young-ho were disguised as guards, walking together with Ye Fei Li on the ceremonial platform.
The man put the book away and rubbed his chin.
"I've lost too much of my power, the only thing left is the Book of Prophesized Destinies"
"That World Destroyer's drink should be able to directly heal my wounds, although I'll need to drink a lot, there's nothing better than this drink"
"How ironic, a World Destroyer awakened a Mystic-type ability specifically for helping others — — was it because of his own wish?"
The man muttered.
All of a sudden, a dignified voice resounded from the sky outside:
「 Empress Lola, the True God is waiting for you in the Holy Church of the Strife Zones 」
The Divinities had arrived.
The man sat there in thought for a bit, then slowly stood up.
His figure flashed and disappeared from the room.
