Chapter 780: The Silver Moon’s Announcement

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The windows in Natravos’ magic tower were in the classic style of the ancient Magic Empire. They were on the upper part of every level, narrow and unframed, as if they were directly embedded into the wall. The complicated panes formed all kinds of mysterious magic patterns.

Even during the day, the sun could barely reach into the magic tower because of the location and size of the windows and the blockage of the panes. As a result, the inside of the magic tower was always dim, dark, and horrifying, exactly like the impression of the ancient sorcerers in ordinary people’s minds.

However, at this moment, the cold moonlight broke the everlasting dimness inside the magic tower, spraying pure and peaceful silver brightness on the fallen walls, the remains of the floor, and everyone’s body.

The moonlight fell exactly on the place where Danisos was at. Having unfolded his body which was hundreds of meters long, he was flapping his enormous wings, spinning the rings of black scales, and opening his mouth to cast the unbelievably fast spells, when his back that was close to his head emitted a silver light under the moon.

Hooooooo!

The primordial dragon of time’s dragon-tongued magic was directly disrupted. His thick neck raised high, and he roared in extreme pain.

On his back, where the silver moonlight gathered, a beautiful “girl”, whose blond long hair was tied on one side, appeared. Half squatting, she held a silver longsword and stabbed it into Danisos’ back brutally, without the slightest emotion in her crimson eyes.

Where the silver longsword stabbed into, a cluster of transparent blood erupted, exactly like the famous spring in Rentato City Square.

When the blood dropped on the floor, it did not mix with the dust at all. Instead, it rolled on the ground like mercury, uncontaminated!

Hooooooo!

Danisos’ painful roar was his dying struggle. His body shook violently, and all his gray scales emanated ripples of light. The black circles that looked like rings expanded and stood up. Immediately, the space and time around him were slowed to the minimum. All the legends were slowed down as if they were performing a play. The mist and the bolts of lightning were frozen to a consistency like gel.

However, no matter how Danisos struggled and resisted, the light of the silver moon was still shining on his back, and the hazy, beautiful shadow was still squatting; her hands that were holding the silver longsword did not move at all. A black fire started to appear on the longsword, and unimaginably complicated symbols began to flow in it and inject into Danisos’ body!

It was Alterna, the God of Silver Moon!

The Demogorgon of Darkness’ eyes that were constantly changing colors were frozen. He was a top legend and the “master” of a demiplane, and he was far away from the battle. Therefore, he was not affected by Danisos’ dying outbursts, but he could sense the condescending indifference directly. Even though Alterna did not look at him, a pair of crimson eyes popped up in his head coldly.

Goddamn Dracula, didn’t you say that the Silver Moon was somewhere around the Boundless Ocean? Wasn’t she conspiring with the Lord of Hell to deal with Pope Viken?

Also, why is the Silver Moon helping the Demogorgon of Eyes and the Six-Armed Inquisitor? I have three vampire princes on my side, who are her loyal supporters. Killing the enemy will not influence her at all! Even though she wants to save the werewolves, she doesn’t have to be so intense, does she?

Judging from the timing of her attack, she seems to have been taking advantage of it all the time!

Gonheim had no doubt that the Silver Moon had arrived in person at this moment!

What should he do?

Ask Dracula to keep Lucien Evans occupied so that he could save Danisos and resist the Silver Moon together with him? As long as they could stop her for a couple of minutes, it would be enough for the “Mastermind” to arrive in the body of the Elder Mind and kill all the other legends.

However, Danisos had been directly hit by the Silver Moon’s Sword of Origin and Destiny. He would be disabled if not dead. How long could he stall the Silver Moon after he was saved? If Gonheim was mired here, he might be unable to escape!

So, should he give up the chance and run away immediately?

As the demon who was most similar to devils, Gonheim certainly had the nature of devils. He liked to consider the pros and cons. When there were greater dangers or temptations, he would abandon or betray his partners without any hesitation. As for contracts and oaths, he was certainly cunning enough to keep loopholes for himself. Besides, there were few witnesses who could guarantee such contracts. There might be no losses at all even if he betrayed him.

Thinking quickly, Gonheim weighed the risks and returns. Of course, he knew that it was an urgent matter and that he had to make up his mind quickly whether to run or to save his ally.

However, at this moment, below another narrow window, David, who had passed out because of the battle of legends, floated up. His hair became as silver as the moon, and he smiled at the Demogorgon of Darkness.

It was Rhine, the Observer!

Gonheim saw that David’s face turned handsome and weird, with two enormous black bat wings unfolded on his back. He was exactly the Silver-Eyed Count!

“When did you replace him?” Gonheim asked solemnly.

David was an important part of his plan. So, he had corrupted the guy a long time ago. He stopped paying attention to him after Natravos was killed and asked him to deliver the message. Little did he anticipate that David would turn into Rhine at some point.

Rhine smiled but did not say anything. He raised his right hand, as if he were the conductor of a concert. Together with his movement, a tall and cold moon rose out of the narrow window behind him.

This time, instead of summoning the Silver Moon, he had created a moon of his own with his strength.

His strength had been greatly improved too… The Demogorgon of Darkness made a decision after seeing that. He had decided to surpass Rhine and escape back into the abyss.

Therefore, the darkness arrived. Weak, barely perceivable light raged inside, creating the frigidity that felt like the end of the universe. It was the lonely and lifeless darkness that did not have any temperature. It was the purest and most devastating darkness!

Rhine waved his right hand, and the symphony burst out. The moon collapsed from the sky into the darkness, releasing infinite brightness that filled up everybody’s horizon.

When Gonheim fought Rhine, Lucien looked at Prince Dracula with a smile. “How could I have come if I had not smelled the Silver Moon?”

Dracula was both jealous and loath. Why did he not smell the air of the Primordial Ancestor when a human sorcerer could?

What have I done wrong?

In his fury, his body collapsed into countless bats that flew toward Lucien overwhelmingly.

Those bats were the size of the skull, with pointy, narrow, and bloody mouths. They looked hideous and terrifying.

Knowing that the bats that Dracula turned into could directly absorb energy, Lucien did not activate “Elemental Protection” but simply pressed the Moon Timer.

The Moon Timer was ticking when Lucien pressed it. Then, it immediately came to a stop after a crack. As a result, the colors around faded away, and everything was covered in lifeless grayness. Those bats became the bugs in ambers, frozen in midair.

Lucien did not perform “Luxury Cracking”, which was what he usually did, but he simply cast “Vengeful Gaze” that was attached with “Hand of Uncertainties”. His right eye became clear, reflecting the beauty of rubies before a ray of light shot out from it.

Lucien did so because Dracula was particularly good at “Night Travel” and resisting space-time consolidation. Even though he was not immune to “Advanced Time Stop”, the effect would be broken many seconds in advance.

Suddenly, the frozen bats were covered in shadows and collapsed where they were. In the lifeless grayness, the shadow of a sundial forged out of gold appeared. Every mark of time was a symbol made of different gems, and at the center was a narrow, long gold stick.

The shadow of the gold stick spun quickly on the surface of the sundial, and the frozen time and space were immediately back to normal. Dracula, in his black tailcoat and his red-and-black cape, appeared again. At this moment, “Vengeful Gaze” had already reached him.

Dracula’s face was livid, and his crimson eyes contained the deepest fury. He simply allowed the Vengeful Gaze to hit him.

However, the moment “Vengeful Gaze” touched his body, a lackluster fog rose. After a moment, the crimson rays vanished into thin air.

Was it the power of “Elimination”?

Lucien was rather shocked. Even though he knew that Prince Dracula was capable of depriving and robbing someone of one of their supernatural powers, he did not expect that he would steal “Elimination” too. The “sundial” with which he broke “Time Stop” just now was perhaps not an extraordinary item but a unique ability.

Although the stolen abilities would be one level lower than his actual level, it was not hard to imagine how terrifying Prince Dracula was when all of them were combined. No wonder he had always been among the top three on the Cleansing List.

However, Lucien was not scared at all. Faced with the enormous shadow that Prince Dracula turned into, he raised his hands with a smile.

“Eternal Blaze!”

Using Eternal Blaze in such an enclosed environment? Does he not worry that he might kill himself? Gonheim, who was attempting to flee, was greatly shocked.

He knew very clearly that Douglas’ “Eternal Blaze”, when performed with full strength, was as powerful as an attack of demigods. Since Lucien was not very far away from Douglas right now, and “Eternal Blaze” came from his legendary class and was deeply associated with his cognitive world, his “Eternal Blaze” would be no weaker than Douglas’. It was possible that it was as powerful as a real demigod attack!

The most dazzling light burst out like a small sun, but it was much less powerful than Gonheim imagined.

“No!”

Dracula screamed miserably under the pure and overwhelming sunlight. The shadow he turned into was gone, and terrible blisters appeared on his face!

After he reached the peak of legendary, Lucien’s control over “Eternal Blaze” had reached a very accurate level. He could control its power precisely. Just now, he only caused a minor “fusion” to make use of the high temperature, the rays of particles, and the damage of the sunlight. As long as the enemy was not at the center and not entirely defenseless, even a level-three legend could’ve resisted it. However, Dracula was different. As a primordial vampire, he hated “sunlight” more than anything else!

Hooooooo!

Danisos roared in regrets. The black fire of void on the Sword of Origin and Destiny had already consumed him, drawing “symbols” one after another on his body.

Suddenly, Alterna drew the longsword out. Black fire spurted out of the fire as well as the void, igniting the magic tower, the chaotic jungle, and the whole demiplane!

The chaotic and corrupted air of the abyss was gone, and a bright moon showed up in the sky. Danisos, on the other hand, shrank his body and crouched next to Alterna’s feet.

Seizing the opportunity, the Demogorgon of Darkness took one of Rhine’s attacks the hard way and escaped back to the abyss.

Looking at the Demogorgon of Eyes, the Six-Armed Inquisitor, and the other legendary experts with her crimson eyes, Alterna announced solemnly, “I am your president.”

Huh? 

All the legendary experts were stunned.
