Chapter 742 408: Manipulation, Demon and Corruption (Double-Length)

"Child... what's wrong?"

Alfredo couldn't help but furrow his brow.

Like a baby pleading for its mother's embrace.

His child, at this moment, seemed to see its mother, stretching out its hands and crying toward a direction.

Seeing this, Alfredo turned his head with a trace of doubt toward that direction.

But then, his pupils contracted sharply, and his heart jolted.

On the sea, a figure with a feminine silhouette, wholly enveloped in blue light, exuding a sacred and solemn aura, was silently floating above the sea.

Behind her, those gentle blue tendrils swayed like beautiful ribbons.

Beside her was the Eye of Dusk.

This scene stirred unease and a tinge of fear within Alfredo, who had just been full of confidence.

Mother Goddess!

As the husband of the Meteaga Goddess, although his own power was not strong, he was privy to many secrets.

Mother Goddess was one of them.

Like other demigods near the Mother Goddess Land, there naturally existed a past connection between the Meteaga Goddess and the Mother Goddess.

Of course, none of this was important at the moment.

"Mother Goddess..." Alfredo took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing his inner fear, "Why have you come?"

Saying so, he glanced at the child in his arms.

Only the child's strength could give him some solace.

However, to his astonishment,

The child in his arms displayed a longing for the Mother Goddess!

He cried out, reaching toward the Mother Goddess, very much like a child yearning for his mother's embrace.

"No..."

Alfredo was utterly panicked.

The child, born from the use of the authority of fertility and harvest and contact with unknown origins, was his greatest assurance.

And the power the child exhibited gave him reasonable expectations.

Before his mind matured... Alfredo, as the father, would act as the child's will.

But now, the situation seemed beyond his expectation.

"No!" Alfredo was terrified, "Your mother is the Meteaga Goddess, and I am your father, why do you desire her!"

"Attack her! My child! I am your closest kin!"

Just as Alfredo was nearly driven to madness.

Mother Goddess suddenly flashed and descended before Alfredo.

Alfredo raised his head stiffly and looked at the Mother Goddess in front of him, his complexion exceedingly pale.

The beautiful face cast by light of the Mother Goddess looked indifferently at him.

Though Mother Goddess showed no hostility, the terrifying aura emanating from her was undeniable, enough to make Alfredo tremble.

This instinctive fear made Alfredo's mind go blank in an instant.

They stood facing each other in a bizarre manner.

Then, the Mother Goddess slowly extended a tendril, gently taking the child from Alfredo's arms.

The strange child, who had been crying, seemed to feel a sense of safety and gradually quieted down.

Seeing this.

Alfredo instantly felt as though his soul and Spirit were drained in an instant.

He could hardly believe what was happening before his eyes.

Why...

Despite being born from fertility, a representation of commanding great power, it bow to the Mother Goddess...

Alfredo did not understand.

And this turned into the last thought in his life.

Mother Goddess did not act directly.

Instead, she turned around silently.

In the moment she turned, Alfredo's Body began to dissipate like smoke in the wind...

And Mother Goddess looked at the child in her arms, her expressionless face slightly lowering, as if gazing at him.

In the next moment, the tendrils behind Mother Goddess extended outward, reaching the child's head.

The next moment, numerous white threads slowly emerged from the tip of the tendril...

Soon, the child in her arms opened his eyes from sleep, his expression indifferent, floating beside her like a manipulated puppet.

After concluding all this, Mother Goddess did not depart immediately, but cast a glance in the direction of the Giant Tree Island.

In her view, that area seemed to have been covered by the Black Tide.

She stayed a while at her location, then turned her head back toward the direction of the Mother Goddess Land.

...

Filth and contamination at this moment had formed a foul-moving continent, still moving steadily.

Currently, the Yudona Sea Area had transformed into a place akin to the Sea of Calamity, devoid of normal life forms.

And during the journey of corruption, they encountered an expected presence...

"Oh? Blood-red skin?" Corrupt Mouse licked its lips, looking at the biological creature in the air ahead, the gaze turning ferocious, "Its brain must be delicious!"

Pus Fly did not utter nonsense, instead looked down toward below, seemingly communicating with its master.

Moments later, it received a reply.

"Devour them!"

The hoarse voice of the Pus Fly instantly traversed the entire Corrupt Continent, and the maggot-mice-flies upon it charged forward frantically as if on stimulants.

And at the forefront of the Corrupt Continent.

Neatly arranged, high and low swirling Teleportation Gates, an ancient aura emanating, released Demons flying out, with an increasingly formidable aura.

Boom...

A terrifying blood-red hand grasped the edge of a Teleportation Gate, the massive figure slowly emerging.

Rumble!

Despite being above the sea without a continent, this Demon King descended upon a multitude of Little Demons, forming its moving foothold.

The Greed Demon King casually grabbed and tore through a Demon, blood splattering, its gaze falling on the distant Corrupt Continent.

"The foul stench is truly affecting one's appetite..."

Even at this moment, the Greed Demon King, who fed on stones, rarely showed a scornful expression.

This is enough to reflect how deeply foul the Corrupt Continent is.

Cinders ablaze, a Dragon-head Demon clad in a crimson robe slowly emerged.

"It seems this is what mother referred to as the Corpse Attacher..."

"Heh, even with a decomposed Body, it refuses to rest in peace, still dreaming to dominate this era?"

The Cruel Demon King sneered.

Coming from the Sea of Demons, they seem well-informed about the situation in the Main World.

Even regarding the Corrupt Continent before them, their understanding might exceed that of Rogel.

"It intends to drag the entire world, letting everything fall into corruption."

At this time, a somewhat gloomy voice sounded.

Following it was the appearance of dense black smoke, carrying a strong burnt smell and sparks.

This was a tall but slightly frail Demon, with messy long hair draping over its shoulders, the gaps between strands revealing eyes with a dim shade.

Even compared to the Cruel Demon King and the Greed Demon King, it appeared somewhat unique, even slightly distinguished among the Demons.

However, their attitude towards it was somewhat intriguing.

"Trickster, what should we do next?"

The Cruel Demon King questioned.

Greed Demon King momentarily halted its chewing, awaiting its words.

Trickster Demon King kept its gaze forward and spoke lightly, "Since it's a rival to mother, naturally we cannot let them propagate corruption with ease."

Buzz——

Just as Trickster Demon King finished speaking this.

A massive rift in space opened up suddenly behind them.

A gigantic blood-red single eye like the sun, emanated light behind them.

Numerous rays of intense power fell upon all Demons' bodies, making their auras grow more fierce and savage.

Without a doubt, it was their "mother" continuing to aid them.

"Humph!"

Trickster Demon King coldly snorted, raising a slender, dry arm, pointing to the Corrupt Continent.

The Greed Demon King and Cruel Demon King saw this and unhesitatingly signaled their minions to attack.

"Roar!!"

Under the radiance of the Evil Fierce Sun, the Demon army and the Corrupt Continent commenced their battle!
