Chapter 539: World 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Within the dark and gloomy Eternal Night Palace.

The yellow light by the wall dimly lit the round, spacious passage, which had two huge pillars textured in golden circles.

There were a pair of triangular mirrors every few meters on the ceiling in the passage that was at least ten meters wide. The shiny mirror had reflected everything within the corridor.

Ding!

Suddenly, a single note of the piano echoed through the passage. The key was pressed again and again, like an anxious heart beating incessantly.

The piano notes gradually climbed higher, from the deepest area of the Eternal Night Palace. The spherical melody traveled like a ripple.

The notes were random and out of rhythm, nor was it pleasant to listen to. It was rather painful to the ear, as countless sharp short, tones blared.

A person in black robes slowly traveled down the corridor with a wheelchair.

The actions he took beneath his robes were slow. There was a white haired girl, in full armor, in the wheelchair with her eyes closed. Her pale skin was slick with sweat.

"What a beautiful melody…" The person who was pushing said softly.

"You have a very unique sense in music." The girl in the wheelchair tried her best to laugh.

"What kind of emotion do you need to produce such a strong melody? I’m really curious." The person pushing the wheelchair said.

Their figures inside the mirror were slightly bent, and what was strange was that the reflection of the person who was pushing the wheelchair inside the mirrors, kept disappearing and reappearing. It was as if the girl was moving the wheelchair on her own.

As the wheelchair moved forward, a white light appeared in the distance. It was the only exit from the Eternal Night Palace, and the final passage to arrive in the outer world.

A deafening roar of a crowd cheering traveled from the outside, accompanied by the din of a master of ceremony doing an introduction.

An ocean of heads was looking inside, and there were even two rows of beautiful ladies throwing flower petals out from a basket. Two sacraments were guarding the entrance with a silver robe and white gold flower chaplet in their hands. It was the reward for the champion.

The man pushing the wheelchair wiped the sweat off the girl, smiled gently and pushed the wheelchair forward.

Creak…

The wheelchair was moving out of the exit, slowly but firmly. At the same time, the girl’s face turned very pale.

"Welcome the honored Eternal Night Palace Master, the King of Ender! Her Majesty Serena!!"

The master of ceremony’s voice was choked with passion, and the girl’s pupil shrunk as she saw each pair of eyes in the sea of people focused solely on her.

She opened her mouth and tried to speak, but strangely, only kept opening her mouth wider and wider. Suddenly, a pool of viscous blood gushed out and kept flowing out from her, onto her chest, and subsequently to the ground.

In that instant, the crowd went silent. Then, a sharp scream broke the silence.

The blood kept flowing out from the woman’s mouth, as if there was an endless source within her. The ground was stained crimson as it spread around her, congealing into a pool.

Now, the screams had erupted across the plaza, as emergency response units came rushing into the pool of blood. As their feet stepped on it, they, too, joined the screaming, as they seemingly disappeared into the pool. Their lower bodies corroded and dissolved into the pool of blood. After a few steps, they would tip and disappear completely.

Ding ding ding…!!

Bell tolls joined the chaotic symphony of noise, as the whole kingdom was slung into a state of panic.

"Her Majesty has been assassinated!""Help!!" such were the screams that permeated the kingdom, as teams of guardians quickly gathered together and flew out of the Eternal Night Palace. They were the Ender Kingdom and multiple countries’ elites.

Boom! Boom boom!

The hot air balloons’ baskets in the sky exploded one after the other. Whatever sounds the occupants had produced, only silence remained. Only the balloons themselves could take their space, in serenity, on top of a bed of chaos.

From a bird’s eye view, the small pool of blood in the center of the Monolith City spread outward at great speed. From the size of the nail, its liquid tendrils extended into the size of a palm, then to a basin, and further and further beyond at an alarming speed.

Whatever living being that was stained by the blood, be it a commoner or a totem user, immediately melted like a burning candle. What was their being was now thick, red, blood.

The pool of blood continued its crusade across the city, chasing the countless fleeing citizens in every direction. An unlucky soul would find himself beneath the feet of the tsunami of bodies, and then, as he tried to get up, in the pool of unstoppable blood. Every corner of the city; merchants, alleys, shops. None were spared from the chaos.

Screams penetrated whatever order sound had tried to form.

And it was at this moment, that three white lights flew inside the city.

"Gentlemen, do what you do!" A girl’s voice emanated from one of the light orbs.

"The queen is too kind!"

"This is what we should do!"

"We must save Her Highness!""Her Highness is already dead!""Impossible!"

The second wave of white lights floated on top of the sea of blood, all at least form four totem users from multiple countries. The tri-country alliance, together with the King of Ender’s plan, the whole line up was almost filled with the elites from the Eastern Continent.

"Stop arguing!" One among the three lights from the first wave shouted deeply. "Great Starry Sky Sacrifice Tactic, activate!"

Goth’s eyes seemed to be on fire inside the white light. He reached out his right hand and stabbed it with a dagger, as his blood dripped down to the ground.

The remaining two people, Queen Earnest and the Black Prince did the same..

Kachak!!

Countless white lightning arcs started to flash among the crowds.

In an instant, with the three district leaders as the core, the white lightning had formed into a net.

"Judge!!" Queen Earnest shouted.

A white, meaty tongue came out in between the space of the lightning net and descended.

The tongue was about a few hundred meters wide, and it seemed to not have any limit in length as it kept elongating. It was also covered with a white, disgusting fluid.

Buzz…

The earth started to tremble, as the buildings in the Monolith city started to fall apart one by one, as if they were a bunch of dominos.

A small vortex appeared at the center of the large, bloody pool.

The vortex became larger and larger, and expanded to the edge of the sea of blood within seconds.

Kaboom!!

A dark red, giant hand reached out from within sea of blood and collided with the white tongue in the sky.

"Judgement!!"

Goth shouted.

The sky was immediately engulfed in darkness as dark as black clouds descended upon the city. The dark cloud kept tumbling, giving off an intense oppression.

Bam!

An arc of lightning appeared, lightening up the faces of the citizens and totem users who had managed to escape from the city.

The outskirts of the Monolith City was suddenly surrounded by a huge group of people in white robes. Most of them were Divine Officers from the Ender Kingdom. The top totem users within the three districts were mixed in among them.

They raised their hands up high, as black smoke seeped out from their bodies and gathered in the sky.

Behind these circle of white robes, there was another circle of people in red robes. They had different kinds of Heirlooms shining in their hands. These Heirlooms kept disintegrating and turning into countless white dots, floating up in the sky.

The black clouds in the sky then amassed into one.

The clouds shaped themselves into a giant humanoid figure, which looked strong and muscular.

Its muscles were packed full and its body was made purely out of the black smoke, and was large enough to cover the city. He growled as he lowered down his head.

"Your spine is the world’s to smite! Repent! Villain!"

A wavelength made of pure energy rippled outward, turning into countless languages, and then directly into everyone’s head.

The giant reached both of his hands out and placed them upon the sea of blood.

The world stopped to look at this moment; as countless totem users joined together and cast a feed of the Monolith City out across the world.

The Three Districts allied with the Ender Kingdom, the remaining forces of Daniela, and countless of survivors hiding in the dark to fight the final battle against the Obscuro Society’s Hellgate.

Another giant hand appeared from the sea of blood, and resisted the giant arms made of black smoke.Both hands joined and connected, forming a huge pillar from the heavens down to hell.

Among the three largest white dots, the Black Prince raised his head, and looked at the giant in the sky. He could even feel the gaze from the other two.

"You need me…" His hands reached, outwards, touching the inner wall within the white film.

Screech!!

In that instant, he pulled the inner wall of white film with both of his hands.

"What are you doing Black Prince!!??"

A shout of rage came.

"No!!"

"Your Highness!""What are you doing!!"

Waves of roars came, as banded as the totem users that came together.

The white film that was torn apart, and slowly began to lose its glow. What replaced it was the evil smile of the Black Prince.

His lips curled, and then he exerted once more.

Screech!

The film was torn split into two. He walked out of the white light surrounding him, gently made his way to the ground.

"...Welcome back…" A bald man slowly emerged from the sea of blood. He smiled and looked at the approaching Black Prince.

The Black Prince marked an arc in the middle sky, and the sea of blood automatically spread out as he landed on the side of the bald man.

The white net of lightning took the Black Prince’s betrayal and faded. The power source of its resistance was now gone. The electricity arced in all directions, collapsing in on itself and disappearing

The giant made of black smoke dispersed along with it. The band of totem users in battle began to regurgitate crimson, as their bodies trembled and fell to the ground. Some had even imploded, showering the ground with their blood. Still others disintegrated in mid-air, their now lifeless corpses as dark as the Black Prince’s betrayal.

Goth and Queen Earnest’s light film shattered, and they fell from the sky. They barely managed to flee the city, and landed safely, and were attended to by the people they’d prepared earlier.

Giant hands kept emerging from the sea of blood, one after another, right in the heart of Monolith City.

Two became three, then five. Ten. Twenty. Fifty…

An innumerable wave of crimson hands, a huge pillar column that grew unstoppably longer, reaching far into the sky.

Goth and Earnest looked at each other and took out two, shiny blue spherical cores.

"I didn’t expect that it would come to this…" Earnest muttered, her heart and spirit heavy.

"Haven’t we decide on this earlier?" Goth said calmly.

"Without the Black Prince’s black district core… I’m not sure if it would be successful." Earnest shook her head.

Under the protection of those around them, their gaze was transfixed on the forest of dark red arms that pierced through the clouds. The stench of blood filled the air, asserting its dominion.

The ground trembled greatly, the sea of blood hammering the earth with incessant shocks.

The world fell into darkness as hands blanketed the land.

The only things still shining were the weak green light from the green spheres in their hands.

Compared to the forest of arms, they were about as significant as ants under the leg of a giant.

Although the current conditions of the other totem users were thrown into the unknown along with the light, at least they knew without a doubt that their first plan was a total failure.

"I’m not sure what the Queen of Ender Kingdom has in mind, but I hope the second plan is effective." Goth looked at the forest of arms, his face devoid of expression.
