"Is it them?"

The relationship between the Lokeshi Empire and the Ense Empire is far beyond what others expected.

Some secret information of the Ense Empire cannot be disclosed to other empires, but it's different for the Lokeshi Empire.

Ense and Lokeshi are absolute allies on another dimension.

They know better than anyone else the sacrifices made by the Ense Empire back in the day,

General Locke even more so.

"Let me make it clear first, I will still prioritize the lives of my men, but out of respect for them, I will try my best to hold him off."

Captain Hill nodded:

"That's enough, thank you."

"No need, you have reached the limits of what a Hero Team can achieve, just for that, it's worthwhile."

Hill smiled and said:

"Hang in there a bit longer, soon, we are also tracing Him."

"If all goes as expected, the Emperor should be arriving."

General Locke's face changed:

"Are you kidding?"

"What do you think?"

Just as they were talking, General Locke's gaze abruptly shifted in another direction.

"Legend?"

Captain Hill frowned: "A legend I've never felt before."

As everyone's gaze turned to a direction in the sky, a visible black dot approached rapidly at an unimaginable speed.

"Be cautious! Be cautious!"

General Locke raised the flag and shouted.

But Captain Hill held his shoulder:

"Don't worry, it's one of ours..."

"One of yours?" General Locke frowned, "Since when did your Dark Ravens have such an unknown legend?"

Hill looked at the three figures descending from the sky, his expression somewhat complex:

"I also want to ask what's going on?"

"Why is it them?"

——Why has the prince's power risen to legend?

No, this power is very unstable, did he temporarily acquire legendary power through special means?

The distant metal statue roared with a thunderous sound.

It seemed to sense danger, acting more and more frantically, paying no heed to its own body crumbling to pieces.

When Louis stopped, only then did the sound of the howling gale reach around.

It was the sound breaking through the air, far slower than Louis.

Because he flew so fast, the sound transmission couldn't catch up with him.

The sky was thick with dark clouds, black clouds pressing down, raindrops falling from above.

A figure appeared in everyone's sight, clad in heavy armor, wielding a one-handed greatsword.

Behind him, vast dragon wings spread, like an ethereal screen of light.

His armor melted like wax, revealing a huge black cross.

Sharp scales pierced through the armor, merged with the silver-white metal armor, yet one could vaguely see the fierce crimson gold crystal within.

——Like someone partially transformed into a dragon.

Raindrops fell on his armor, from the crevice of his helmet, a pair of deep eyes could be seen.

Drip.

Drip.

Drip.

Droplets of metallic liquid fell from him, revealing his steel-like muscles.

Protruding bones like crescent moon blades, he just stood there quietly, bathed in the red glow emanating from the statue.

As if he wasn't rushing to a battle, but was wandering like a child on a beach under the Silver Moon, picking up beautiful shells.

Compared to the terrifying, hideous statue, he seemed so small.

Yet various complex elements combined on him, forming an inexplicable aesthetic.

That was the aesthetics of power.

This was when people discovered, without knowing when, that the silver liquid rising to the sky had turned into countless threads, binding the statue's swinging fist in mid-air.

He walked over to Olivia and Lumi.

And looked at the little swan.

The little swan widened her eyes.

She immediately recognized this monster as Louis.

"Why did you come down?"

"I said I would protect you," his deep voice was completely different from his usual, suppressing something.

At the scene, the outer circle of the Shadow Country had been leveled, the gigantic statue standing amidst the ruins like a colossus emerging from ancient times.

With the statue's roars, the threads wrapped around Him shattered.

"Quick, dodge, that guy isn't someone an ordinary legend can handle."

With his back to the statue, Louis extended a scale-covered hand, looking at her pale face, gently ried Olivia's hair:

"Are you afraid?"

Olivia nodded.

She was very scared.

"That's why I have to come over."

He said calmly.

In the next moment, a sound resembling a spell rang out.

"World, stop."

Wind sound, rain sound, thunder sound.

The sound of the sky tearing apart, the sound of earth collapsing.

Everything seemed to disappear at this moment.

Louis moved.

As if awakened from a slumber, crimson blood gas spread from every gap in the armor, like a blazing sun of blood.

The statue's metal flesh was being corroded by the scorching blood gas at this moment.

In the world frozen in time, the statue extended a hand to block the stabbed sword.

Unbelievable, even in a world frozen in time, He could still move.

Or perhaps this is the divine power of the deity?

Even mere remnants are still unmatched by ordinary people.

But in the next moment, Louis' calm voice sounded once more:

"World, stop."

The first technique used is called Time Stop, the pinnacle of steel soul martial arts, the killer of killers.

This time.

The technique he used is called [Isle of Time].

The ultimate technique of the Eternal Blade.

Even the Jade Phoenix Mage's Emerald Sacrifice pales in the face of pure unsolvable might.

Because... under the influence of double time stop technique, combined with the properties of the Isle of Time.

He can hit during the time stop.

When the statue came to realization, a massive cross-shaped opening appeared on His chest.

The opening pierced through His form.

Louis could vaguely see a network of threads spreading like veins within.

That seemed to be the reason the statue could move.

As the time stop ended, the world began to turn again, the statue slowly falling, seemingly finally finding peace.

He looked down at Louis, speaking indifferently:

"To destroy the corporeal body, truly a human hero."

"But having used such a powerful forbidden technique, the backlash will become your curse, tormenting you."

Heavy footsteps sounded.

The armored warrior did not turn back, merely wiped away the rain on Olivia's face.

He looked at the distant city shrouded in countless shadows.

He sensed a familiar aura.

"The Shadow Country will see the light of day again."

"The ones who have died, let them sleep quietly, why seek to rise again."

He didn't turn around.

Because the power of the statue behind him had dissipated.

In the fearful eyes of the crowd, wherever the gaze reached, the entire earth appeared to fold like a closed book, page by page.

The Shadow Country, nailed in the shadow realm, floated in the air like a floating continent.

And now this floating continent is slowly rotating.

Holding the little swan, Lumi said:

"The reversed Shadow World has been shattered, the Shadow Country is really going to return to the surface."

"The Emperor... is still so powerful."

Louis "hmm"ed.

The little swan seemed to realize something, jumped out of Lumi's arms, and as she ran halfway, she found Louis' body falling.

The cracked armor shattered to pieces, revealing his serene expression.

Among the armor fragments, a hint of crimson seeped out.

Olivia held him tightly, the Celestial Destiny Staff in her hands flickered with magical brilliance.

But healing magic at this moment seemed to lose its effect.

No matter how she showered him in magical brilliance, she couldn't stop the crimson from seeping through his skin.

The little swan bit her thin lips.

"Big fool."

She placed a gem on him, a relic given to her by her mother.

Inside it held the peak power of a Jade Phoenix Mage.

A resurrection power known as [Emerald Sacrifice].

And now, she placed this precious relic in his hand.

"Don't let anything happen!"
