Chapter 155 The King Exploded (Long Chapter, Thank you everyone for your monthly votes)
The sudden voice startled George III.
He thought he was hallucinating, so he quickly composed himself and focused on his promotion.
George III has already drunk the "Black Emperor's" potion, and the next period of time is crucial for him.
"Are you deaf?" the voice said. "Since you're deaf, you can try this—"
A cacophony of voices immediately filled George III's ears: "When will this war end?"
"My child, I couldn't even see you one last time."
"I heard that Constance's defense is in trouble."
"Hehe, keep fighting, the more you fight, the more gold pounds I earn."
The points of light that served as George III's anchor flickered on and off, constantly emitting a noisy sound, causing George III's already illusory body to also flicker on and off.
He quickly tried to calm himself and asked, "Who are you?"
That was Raphael standing before an abstract gate in the "Land of Chaos," who smiled and said, "I am a demon who longs to improve, and I've come to chat with you and learn something."
George III trembled under the torment of the cacophony: "You've got it wrong, I am King of Loon."
Meanwhile, he was checking to see where the problem was.
His people are his anchors, but normally these anchors should be quiet. How does that voice control those anchors?
Raphael laughed and said, "Look at how stingy you are, fine, don't tell me then."
George III's illusory body suddenly began to sway, and it seemed that something had gone wrong in his transformation into the "Shadow of Order".
He quickly replied, "I am a high-ranking demon!"
Raphael said, "I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person."
"The main reason I can become a high-ranking demon is that I was born with the perfect aptitude for demonic creation," George III said earnestly. "From the moment I was born, I possessed the power to decide the fate of others, so I can use that power with impunity to bankrupt people and make them die in agony."
Raphael laughed and said, "I understand now, so that's how it is."
Then he added, "I know you're stalling for time, and I can tell you, I'm actually stalling for time too. Hehehe."
The illusory mirror was not the real "Land of Chaos" after all; it could only serve as a link. It would take time for the white jade bead to influence George III, but Raphael discovered that George III had already drunk the potion. That's why he spoke to the king and affected his state, thus hindering his promotion process.
Otherwise, given Raphael's personality, he would rather take action than talk.
King George III was visibly taken aback when he heard Raphael's words.
Before he could say anything, Raphael continued, "As for why I'm talking to you, I'm just killing time anyway, so I might as well tease a fool."
King George III was furious; he had never been so insulted before: "Who are you? Who are you really?"
"I'm your father!"
For a split second—no, less than a second—George III actually believed it.
Even the two royal angels couldn't disturb him now. Even the seven gods couldn't locate him for the time being.
So there must be something special about that sound!
If he is his father, then he is indeed quite special.
Raphael laughed, "Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get to work!"
Streams of dark, illusory liquid gushed forth from the depths of the mausoleum, converging on King George III on the throne. King George III immediately trembled like a shaking jelly: "We can talk again. I can give you anything you want! Let's talk again."
Raphael looked at the dying king and said, "I want to be king."
"no problem."
"Bullshit!" Raphael cursed. "Do you think everyone else is stupid?"
If King George III had even given his answer a second thought, Raphael would have considered it as well.
The black, viscous liquid completely enveloped and submerged George III, who cried out, "No! I can make you king! Yes—"
George III was quickly dissolved and became part of the black liquid as it was repeatedly washed away.
When |~
The crown, inlaid with a huge black gemstone, fell to the ground.
Raphael scratched his head in front of the black illusory mirror; he couldn't pick up the crown.
Soon the crown and the three Sequence 1 properties disappeared, and no one knows where they went.
Backlund, at Memorial Square.
"My subjects—" George III, with his two small mustaches and a serious, old-fashioned demeanor, continued his speech.
Boom~
The king exploded!
His flesh and blood turned into fireworks, spraying into the sky.
Audrey and the others in the audience watched this scene as if they were watching a grand magic show, and for a moment no one realized what was happening.
A few seconds later, chaos erupted as screams filled the air as soldiers of the King's Guard rushed onto the platform.
Cabinet members and upper-class nobles either instinctively sought shelter or mustered their courage to follow the guards to inspect the scene.
In the suburbs, at Ruins No. 1.
The witch Triss was slammed against the cliff wall by Prince Grove, who was dressed in retro style, and was almost embedded in it, her body covered in blood.
At this moment, she took out an item, a rectangular diamond-shaped talisman, "Yesterday Once More" given to her by Klein!
This was Triss's last resort. With blood on her face, she gave a beautiful smile. After using it, she would die.
At that very moment, from within the mausoleum, came the roar of George III: "No—!"
The mausoleum suddenly shook, and the next second it seemed to lose all its support, collapsing from the inside out.
Prince Grove and Triss, who were fighting, were both stunned for a moment. Then Prince Grove hurried to the mausoleum to check.
Although Triss didn't know what was going on, she laughed heartily and immediately "disappeared" away.
As she limped along, she looked back at the completely collapsed mausoleum. For a moment, she felt as if she had lost her purpose in life.
The ruins in East Chestershire.
Bernadette, who gained the ability of "Knowledge Emperor" for a day using "0-05", and her rival, William I with his high nose and thick beard, looked together at the mausoleum not far away.
It seemed to lose all its vitality all at once and began to collapse rapidly.
Bernadette "predicted" that this did not seem to be the result of Klein's actions—or rather, not the result of Klein's planned actions.
But without stopping or investigating, she immediately transformed into a stream of information and disappeared into the void.
In another ruin, Klein, Zarathustra, and other saints and angels were also taken aback when they saw the secret mausoleum suddenly collapse.
Prior to this, George III's promotion process had been very smooth, with no signs of failure whatsoever.
Klein, in particular, had just taken out "The Travels of Grossell" and was planning to use the item as cover to sabotage the tomb in front of him.
As a result, the mausoleum had already collapsed.
In the next instant, everyone spiritually realized that George III's ascension had failed.
Klein frowned. Logically speaking, Bernadette should be fighting a royal angel. It would be good enough if she could hold off that Sequence 1 angel. It was unlikely that she could achieve much.
Even if Triss risked her life to destroy a mausoleum, it shouldn't have ruined the entire ascension ceremony like this.
But Klein was only stunned for a moment. Before he could investigate, his body suddenly became ethereal, and he tried to hide in the gaps of history.
Just then, a vortex suddenly appeared in his field of vision. This vortex was made up of countless transparent worms, and transparent, slippery tentacles extended from all sides of the vortex.
That is Zarathustra's true form!
He has been waiting for Klein in the gaps of history.
Klein immediately changed his escape strategy, deliberately pricking his finger and smearing his blood on Grosser's Travels.
He had lost all his magical puppets in the previous battle, so running around now wasn't a problem for him.
But in the "City Hall" of "Travelogue," Klein unexpectedly encounters Adam! Adam then seizes control of "Travelogue."
Klein was pulled out of "Travelogue" and continued his escape.
Fortunately, Adam was kind enough that after achieving his goal, he helped Klein avoid Zarathustra and enter the gaps in history.
Klein ran wildly, all the way into the historical fog of the First Age.
When he finally got rid of Zarathustra and returned to his residence in Backlund, he saw a man of mixed Loen and Byron blood in the room. He was the puppet he had lost before, "The Winner" Enyuni!
To his surprise, Klein found himself stiff and unable to move.
At that moment, Enjun casually pulled a crystal monocle from his pocket and put it on his right eye.
He chuckled and said, "Don't throw away your secret dolls carelessly, or you'll be tracked!"
Ah, Monk!
Deep underground in the western continent, at Langya Mountain.
Raphael saw King George III turn into fireworks and explode in front of everyone in the black, illusory mirror.
The white jade-colored bead dimmed, clearly indicating that the previous operation had consumed a significant amount of its power.
Raphael said, "Alright, we can go to the 'Dark Lodge' now."
The white jade-colored bead hummed in response and emitted another beam of light, which shone on the illusory black mirror surface.
The mirror vanished instantly, forming a circle several meters in diameter, allowing the two Raphaels to gaze at each other without any obstruction—
eye.
This experience is strange; it's me! But it also feels like I'm not.
If it were someone else, they would likely suffer a tremendous mental shock.
But Raphael was unaffected; he even waved and greeted himself.
Suddenly, the distance between the two Raphaels rapidly increased. In an abstract sense, the two were very close, but in reality, the distance between them was as far as half the earth, or it could be described as: another version of himself on the other side of the earth.
Soon, the round hole disappeared, and the area in front of the two Raphaels turned into rock.
Raphael asked, "Can this passage be maintained?"
"Yes, it's possible," said the white jade sphere. "However, that's preservation in an abstract sense, not preservation in the real world."
Raphael then asked, "Will you be able to influence the disordered kingdoms in the future?"
The white jade sphere said, "I left a key to the door of the 'Land of Chaos,' which allows me to locate it at any time, but it's difficult to exert much influence over it anymore."
Raphael laughed and said, "That's enough."
The surrounding gray fog had completely disappeared, and the huge space had now become a normal underground space.
The white jade-colored bead emitted a beam of light, like that of an old-fashioned projector.
The beam of light pierced through the space, illuminating a secluded valley, the entire valley pitch black, devoid of any sunlight.
Lava flows there, and blue flames often emerge, becoming the only source of light. And within the lava, strange and exotic plants grow.
Halfway up the valley, there is a courtyard completely woven from intertwined vegetation.
The ground in the courtyard was the color of lava, as if it were lava that had not yet solidified.
In the center of the courtyard was a small pool of water. The water shimmered and looked very deep, and it was unaffected by the surrounding lava.
Inside the courtyard, some plants growing in the darkness intertwine to form a pavilion-like structure, as well as a covered walkway in front of a pond.
Raphael had seen this scene before; it was when he first came into contact with the "True Lord's Jade Body." He had witnessed this sight at the same time he gained his abilities.
That must be "Dark Lodge".
The white jade-colored bead said, "Let's go."
Raphael asked, "If I appear in the Dark Chamber, will I be corrupted?"
White jade-colored round bead: "As long as you don't stray too far from me, everything will be fine."
Raphael nodded, stepped forward, and the space around him receded rapidly. The sulfurous smell of magma rushed towards him as he entered the "Dark Hut".
Meanwhile, Raphael, deep within Backlund, quickly left the vast space with the remaining undead. For him, it was enough for one person to enter the "Dark Hut".
On his way out, all the areas with strange rules had disappeared. As he walked, he picked up any extraordinary characteristics he encountered.
Above the western continent.
Amidst the clouds, the Thirty-Three Heavens, which were constantly emitting rosy light, suddenly emitted a loud "boom".
People on the ground saw that the Heavenly Emperor's residence was shaking noticeably.
Suddenly, the clouds rolled in and the rosy clouds shone brightly!
In the most magnificent hall of the thirty-third heaven, the Heavenly Emperor, dressed in imperial robes and wearing a crown, sat on his throne and slowly opened his eyes, looking towards the unstable area within the thirty-third heaven.
In an instant, a force of order flowed through the layers of palaces.
Feeling the majesty of the Heavenly Emperor, the ministers and palace servants all knelt down towards the highest palace.
Soon, order was restored in the Thirty-Three Heavens, and the Heavenly Emperor calmly closed his eyes.
The Heavenly Emperor certainly sensed it; the secret realm corresponding to the Lingxiao Palace under his jurisdiction had just been completed.
This secret is known only to the Heavenly Emperors of all ages. As one of the eight major sects, the Lingxiao Palace's secret realm has always been incomplete.
Something important must have happened somewhere today to make the secret realm whole again.
On the surface, the Heavenly Emperor appeared calm and collected, but in his heart, he was already pondering how to investigate what was going on.
