Novel Full Chapter 509 Trial Day · Invincible Realm Battlefield (15)
Gongsun Qi’s tone sounded so complicated and tangled.
Aresis clearly recognized the complexity.
It was a combination of contempt, disappointment, and disbelief. There were a lot of emotions that Aresis had never felt before.
Almost in an instant, Aresis completely calmed down.
Everything that happened tonight was a bit abnormal.
Among the four patriarchs of the Eastern Church, Patriarch Rock, the most low-key and devout controller, was very accomplished in the spiritual field.
But now, it seemed that the attainment of Patriarch Calander, the destroyer, in the spiritual field was not inferior to that of Patriarch Rock at all.
It was a spiritual achievement that was close to the Transcendent Realm. If it was spread out, it was enough to cause a stir in the Dark World.
Aresis had no time to think about these problems in detail. The only thing he wanted to know was how he was hypnotized.
He accepted the coronation of the Pope, so he was perfect in terms of spirit and willpower. The great improvement of his willpower also made him more focused on using his own strength, so that his strength could improve by leaps and bounds on the basis of the peak of the Invincible Realm.
Strictly speaking, he could not have been hypnotized after the Pope’s coronation.
No matter what, it was impossible for Calander to do that.
But in fact, the most unlikely thing happened.
He didn’t stop fighting in the illusory world set up by Calander, wasting all of his physical power, to the extent where he was seriously injured. In the illusory world, he was undefeatable, and he was standing at the peak of the world.
But Gongsun Qi pulled him back to reality, which was the cruelest and coldest.
The block was empty and peaceful.
The buildings that were destroyed by Aresis’s great power were turned into ruins and piled up on the ground.
The noises caused by the battle in the distance continued to sound.
As Aresis felt the weakness and powerlessness coming from various parts of his body, his face looked terrible and cold.
He suddenly asked, “What’s the situation?”
If Rothschild was doomed to be wiped out tonight, many stories would happen.
But now, Rothschild was still there.
As for Aresis, he didn’t know how long he had been trapped here.
In such a case, the Vatican and the Snowdance Corps could naturally be considered allies.
Gongsun Qi said calmly, “We lost.”
In tonight’s battle, the biggest accident was, of course, Paul, who revealed his strength that was infinitely close to the peak of the Invincible Realm.
And after being crowned by the Pope, Aresis was hypnotized by Patriarch Calander, which was also an accident.
Gongsun Qi saw clearly that Aresis had obviously fallen into the illusion and couldn’t get out by himself just now. If he didn’t come, this block could be considered the spiritual world of Patriarch Calander. And if he came a little later, Aresis would have the risk of death.
The suppression in the spiritual field was far more intense than that in the Martial Arts field. Aresis could not tell illusion from reality. In the end, he could only die with an unparalleled sense of accomplishment in illusion.
Tonight, the patriarch from Eastern Europe was a bit unlucky for he could nearly kill an expert at the peak of the Invincible Realm from the Vatican.
What did that mean?
Gongsun Qi was very clear that there must be something wrong with it.
But it didn’t matter anymore.
What mattered was that Aresis could not appear on the battlefield as soon as possible, so that the whole battle situation began to be favorable to Rothschild.
“Lost?!”
Aresis abruptly raised his thick eyebrows and roared in a low voice, “But the battle is not over yet!”
“Does it matter?”
Gongsun sneered. “As an expert at the peak of the Invincible Realm, you actually fell into the illusion set up by the other party. Without your head-on suppression, Paul is on a killing spree on the battlefield. Mitchell, Huan Kong, and Kass Rotter all died. Qin Xilai and Tribulation withdrew from the battlefield with serious injuries. Now on that battlefield, Violet, Lagos, and Husteel teamed up with KingTong and Paul to kill the elites of our forces. The battle is indeed not over. That’s because the army of Wulan State has not been annihilated yet. What about you? In your current state, what can you do?”
Aresis’s face was pale.
Every time Gongsun Qi said a word, his heart sank a little. By the time Gongsun Qi finished speaking, the heart of the Saint War Angel from the Vatican had sunk to the bottom.
In any case, he did not expect that the situation of this war had already reached such a serious level.
“The Snowdance Corps and Wulan State will still make the last effort, but if the general trend can’t be reversed, Zhongzhou State can only choose to give up Wulan State at the last moment. As for the Vatican…”
Gongsun Qi’s eyes were cold and indifferent. “It’s none of our business.”
The night wind blew over.
Aresis suddenly felt cold all over.
But luckily, he had not completely lost the ability to think. Gongsun Qi’s few words had already pictured him a scene of the battlefield and the future.
“You mean Violet, Morton, and the Eastern Church are working together with Rothschild?”
Gongsun Qi didn’t speak. He turned around with no expression on his face.
Aresis’s eyes turned cold. At this moment, what came to his mind was not Gongsun Qi’s rudeness, but the consequences of losing tonight’s battle.
The Snowdance Corps occupied Wulan State.
Such a big advantage made Li Tianlan directly set off the war tonight.
So the Snowdance Corps couldn’t afford to lose.
Li Tianlan and the Li family couldn’t afford to lose.
Once they lost tonight’s battle, Li Tianlan and the Li family would be under tremendous pressure.
But in the current situation, the Vatican couldn’t afford to lose, either.
Rothschild, Eastern Church, Violet, and Morton.
Once the four joined forces to occupy Wulan State, they would take advantage of it to head westward. The entire Eastern Church’s elites would be able to attack the Holy Land.
The joint efforts of the four super forces could be said to be flawless.
Rothschild could offer his allies a solid foundation in Western Europe. Paul was an absolute master who could pin down Aresis.
The identity of the Eastern Church allowed this invasion to always be limited within the boundaries of the religious war, and it could also influence the believers of the Vatican with its doctrine. Their doctrines came from the same Bible. Even if there was a difference, how big could it be?
The Morton family could offer an enormous amount of wealth.
As for the Violet family, it could use Snow Country’s limitless political resources as bargaining chips.
It wasn’t that the Vatican couldn’t resist the force of such a team.
The significance of this matter did not lie in the fact that whether the Vatican could resist it or not.
For the Vatican, as long as the Eastern Church stepped into Western Europe, every time they had one more believer, it was equal to a failure of the Vatican.
The mystery of the Vatican and the majesty of the Saint War Angel would all become a joke by then.
Aresis hated being laughed at by others the most.
Although he became a joke tonight, only Gongsun Qi could see it.
If the Vatican failed tonight, his joke could be seen all over the world.
Aresis’s eyes became colder and colder.
He suddenly asked, “Do you look down on me?”
Gongsun Qi’s figure was about to disappear under the cover of the Azure Dragon Armor. When he heard this, his figure paused slightly and turned around again.
“What you did tonight is not worthy of respect.”
Gongsun Qi said calmly, “At least as an ally, I can’t understand.”
Aresis nodded.
His expression was serious and calm. “This is an accident, but everything can be reversed.”
A dark red pill appeared in his hand.
The pill was dim and scarlet, looking very strange.
Without any hesitation, Aresis swallowed the pill.
The red pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and then it seemed like a burning fire.
The burning sensation flowed down his throat and burned his whole body.
Aresis’s body trembled violently, as if he was suffering great pain.
His pale face instantly became ruddy, and an incomparably violent aura burst forth. The domain of the Peak Invincible Realm began to condense toward him.
In an instant, a gust of wind was stirred up on the empty street.
Gongsun Qi stood on the edge of the domain. He was the strongest superior of the Half-step Invincible Realm below the Invincible Realm, with the strongest combat capability of the Invincible Realm. Even if Li Tianlan rose, now under the Invincible Realm, Gongsun Qi was still the strongest one.
However, the strongest superior of the Half-step Invincible Realm couldn’t help shaking under the fluctuation of this domain, and it seemed that he couldn’t stand still.
Aresis closed his eyes and endured the pain that was going to tear his soul into pieces inside him.
The violent drug effect lasted about ten minutes.
Aresis opened his eyes slowly.
His eyes were calm, and his breath completely calmed down.
“Let’s go.”
Aresis glanced at Gongsun Qi and said, “Let’s go and have a look.”
“This is…”
Gongsun Qi opened his mouth, but he didn’t finish his words.
In the Dark World, there were a lot of genetic drugs that could support all kinds of experts to fight in various environments. Among them, there was no lack of magical drugs that could temporarily restore the combat capability of severely injured people. Most of the time, it meant an extra life.
But this kind of medicine could only be applied to people under the Invincible Realm.
The medicine that could help superiors of the Invincible Realm recover from their injuries in an instant to their peak state was rare, and it often had all kinds of side effects. For example, the user’s willpower might become blurry, and he might have difficulty in distinguishing friends and foes. What was worse, it might even cause his realm to decline.
However, the red pill in Aresis’s hand obviously had no limits. He regained his peak state in an instant but could still tell friends from foes. In such a situation, he dared to take the pill, which even showed that he didn’t need to pay a high price afterward. Such a drug should be valuable even in the Wang family of Beihai, which possessed the most excellent technology in the field of genetic drugs. The Vatican’s research in this field was not as good as that of the Wang family of Beihai. Compared with other developed countries, it had no advantage.
What kind of medicine was this?
“It’s the latest achievement of the Vatican. I possess the only one.”
The muscles at the corner of Aresis’s mouth twitched.
This red pill was naturally inferior to the Immortality Potion, but it could bring a severely injured expert at the peak of the Invincible Realm back to the peak state in an instant, which was enough to show how amazing it was. The code name of this pill was Redemption, which could be said to be the highest achievement of the Vatican in this field.
It was supposed to be one of Aresis’s trump cards. In his plan, it should be the trump card he would use when he fought Wang Tianzong in the final battle of Eastern Europe.
But now due to the Eastern Church, the Redemption was wasted here because he could not afford to lose.
Tonight, it was impossible for them to retreat from Wulan State and allow the Eastern Church to enter Western Europe to encroach on the Holy Land.
This group of heretics really deserved to die!
Aresis narrowed his eyes, which were full of killing intent.
At this moment, he didn’t deliberately show his strength, but he stood there, looking awe-inspiring.
Gongsun Qi took a deep look at Aresis. After a long while, he gently bowed and said, “Gongsun Qi greets Your Highness.”
Aresis did not speak.
The suffocating sense of oppression in the field was still there.
But his figure had suddenly disappeared.
Gongsun Qi stood up and looked at the sky.
In the night, violent and aggressive killing intent whistled and surged all the way to the distance.
Gongsun Qi was silent for a long time before he slowly turned around.
A gentle and calm voice suddenly sounded behind him without warning.
The voice was very close to Gongsun Qi’s back.
“Third brother? Did you kill Calander?”
Gongsun Qi’s face changed dramatically, and he suddenly turned around.
The surprise attack in Snow City was like a real war.
After the fighting, explosions, and the falling blood, the sword light condensed, and the vast manor regained peace.
The war broke out all of a sudden.
It ended suddenly as well.
In the battle of Recchi City, Violet had taken away more than sixty percent of the elite forces of the Violet family.
In order to maintain the stability of Snow City, a part of the elites in the manor were scattered across the city.
The most important thing was that the departure of Violet had stripped the family of its most powerful deterrence.
Under such circumstances, Xuanyuan Sword Troop’s edge was almost fully unleashed from the very beginning, and the pulse weapons cleared up the place immediately. The remaining masters were few and far between after the first charge of Xuanyuan Sword Troop.
Ling Shuangxue, the First Elder of Jade Pool, had blocked the counterattacks from the Fog Defense System of Violet’s headquarters with one sword move named the Flying Fairy from Outer Space.
It was just the beginning.
As soon as a Half-step Invincible Realm expert and the other elite at the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm of the Violet family had just appeared, a sword move that was even more ruthless and decisive than the Flying Fairy from Outer Space had already burst out in the manor.
The famous sword was named Drifting Snow.
Heaven-shattering Rainbow!
With only one strike, the bodies of the two strongest elites who stayed at the headquarters of the Violet family had been shattered. From attacking to approaching the patriarch of the Violet family, it took no more than half an hour for Xuanyuan Sword to conduct this surprise attack.
On this night, the core figures of the Violet family, which was the most supreme in Snow Country, were exposed to Jade Pool’s swords. Without any defense or protection, the wealthy and powerful family was also shivering in the face of death.
The blood drops on Drifting Snow flowed down slowly and dripped on the expensive carpet. Xu Changge, who had only made one move in the whole battle, watched a crowd of people kneeling under his feet quietly.
Tovo · Granoski · Violet, the patriarch of the Violet family, and all the important figures of the Violet family who were in the headquarters.
The old patriarch of the Violet family, who had been paralyzed in bed and was about eighty years old.
Tovo’s two younger sisters.
A big brother.
Apart from them, there were also a few kids who looked to be only five or six years old.
At this moment, all the members of the Violet family huddled together, looking at Xu Changge with undisguised fear and hatred in their eyes.
“Mr. Xu.”
A leader of Xuanyuan Sword Troop came over and said with a poker face, “I’ve checked. Except for Violet, there are eight other people of the Violet family who are not here. They are all very important figures, and two of them are in Snow City.”
Xu Changge said flatly, “Send someone to kill them.”
The leader nodded, turned around, and went to make arrangements.
Xu Changge’s eyes fell on Tovo, the patriarch of the Violet family.
He was silent for a while, then said calmly, “So, in tonight’s raid, we actually only captured you—an most valuable hostage?”
“There’s nothing we can’t negotiate.”
Tovo took a deep breath. He was still wearing his pajamas. When the Xuanyuan Sword Troop attacked the manor sneakily, he had just stripped off the clothes of an obedient young councilwoman who had recently been instructed by him in the sexual sense. He experienced sexual arousal and then was on the verge of death. His mind was in a muddle, but he was not completely scared. He waved his hand, stood up tentatively, and said slowly and sincerely, “The Violet family is willing to make friends with Zhongzhou people. We totally can negotiate. I can call my wife now. She will come back with the elites of our family. No, she can even help you. Do you want to deal with Rothschild? Violet can help you.”
A member of Xuanyuan Sword Troop came over and took a picture. Then, he left.
“You can’t kill me. This will damage the relationship between Snow Country and Zhongzhou State. If we cooperate, the whole of Eastern Europe will be ours. Your young marshal has great strength. He’s a strong man. I’m willing to share Eastern Europe with the strong. Time will prove that cooperation with the Violet family is the best choice.”
Xu Changge glanced at the elite who had just retreated.
The other side nodded expressionlessly.
Xu Changge also nodded and glanced at Tovo. “Are you done?”
Tovo’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Xu Changge said calmly, “Time will prove that killing you tonight is the best choice.”
Drifting Snow formed an extremely bright arc of light in the air.
The arc of light disappeared in a flash.
A few drops of blood splashed out.
A line of blood suddenly appeared on Tovo’s throat.
The blood spurted like a line, looking strange and bloody.
Xu Changge said indifferently, “As a patriarch who is willing to give his family power to a woman, what qualifications do you have to talk about cooperation?”
There were sudden exclamations in the magnificent hall.
The remaining old people, children, and women all huddled together, shivering.
Xu Changge glanced at them.
Ling Shuangxue walked over and asked, “Senior brother, what about these people?”
Xu Changge’s gaze shifted from those children to the old people.
A hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes.
“We can’t get in touch with His Highness now…”
He said slowly, “Maybe these people can be used to threaten Violet…”
Ling Shuangxue didn’t say anything.
There were indeed two children of Tovo and Violet, a boy and a girl. The boy was already close to adulthood, and the girl was no more than five years old.
It was indeed a good choice to threaten Violet with them.
But it seemed that Li Tianlan hadn’t thought about this from the very beginning.
His order was simple, which was to destroy the entire Violet family.
Tonight, no matter who won or lost in the battle in Recchi City, both the Violet family and the Morton family were bound to disappear from Eastern Europe.
If the Snowdance Corps were to win, in the future, the Qin Clan and Rekvia would gain even more and greater benefits in Eastern Europe.
Xu Changge looked at the group of the old, the young, women, and children in front of him, and the look in his eyes was a little shaky.
He saw weakness, fear, and hatred in their eyes.
He was, after all, just a swordsman who rarely left Jade Pool.
Now he had destroyed the Violet family, but in the face of this group of people, who had no strength to fight back, he was actually at a loss for a moment.
The elites of Xuanyuan Sword Troop slowly walked into the hall.
They looked at the group of people who had no strength to fight back, and their eyes were cold and silent.
Xu Changge suddenly felt a little disgusting. He shook his head hard and said, “I’ll make a phone call.”
Ling Shuangxue asked, “We can’t get in touch with His Highness, can we?”
Xu Changge shook his head and said, “I’ll call Rushi. His Highness might have other arrangements.”
The phone was soon connected.
Dongcheng Rushi’s clear voice sounded very soft. “Master?”
Xu Changge’s inner struggle gradually subsided. He smiled and said gently, “It’s me.”
Dongcheng Rushi said yes and said honestly, “Tianlan isn’t here. How’s it going over there?”
“Everything goes well.”
Xu Changge looked back at the crowded hostages and sighed softly. “I also hold some elderly people and children of the Violet family as hostages. They are all very important figures. Rushi, does His Highness have any other arrangements?”
Dongcheng Rushi also fell silent.
Apparently, she also understood the meaning of this sentence.
Xu Changge quietly waited for Dongcheng Rushi’s answer.
Not knowing how long it took, Dongcheng Rushi said softly, “They’re all enemies.”
“But they are all old people and children!”
Xu Changge subconsciously raised his voice. “The youngest child is less than two years old this year!”
In the end, he couldn’t accept what might happen next and directly stated his position.
Dongcheng Rushi kept silent.
There was dead silence on the other end of the line.
After God knew how long, Dongcheng Rushi hung up the phone in the silence.
In the end, she did not respond to Xu Changge’s words.
In fact, no response was a kind of response.
Xu Changge’s body was a little cold. After standing in the same place for a long time, he glanced at Ling Shuangxue and said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”
Two swordsmen from Jade Pool slowly walked out.
The elites of Xuanyuan Sword Troop stood quietly.
The hall became gloomy and cold.
The door closed slowly.
A child’s cry suddenly sounded in the room.
There was sword intent spreading out from the hall.
The screams lasted for a moment and then disappeared.
Xu Changge did not look back. He stepped over the stone-paved road of the manor. At the place where he walked, a line of deep footprints was imprinted on the road, deep and clear.
“Senior brother…”
Ling Shuangxue hesitated.
Xu Changge shook his head slowly and suddenly said, “Let’s go back.”
“Oh?”
Ling Shuangxue was a little confused, and she opened her charming and attractive eyes wide.
Xu Changge said in a low voice, “Go back to Zhongzhou State.”
He straightened his back and subconsciously looked in the direction of Recchi City.
In Recchi City, Dongcheng Rushi stood in front of the window and looked at the deep night outside.
After she hung up, the screen of her mobile phone dimmed completely.
The wind and rain were messy.
She stood there quietly.
In the distant sky, the dark night seemed to have become an extremely dark shadow.
The shadow slowly drifted over, as if it completely enveloped Dongcheng Rushi.
Youzhou.
In the sunset, a black Rolls-Royce slowly drove into the Hidden Dragon Sea and finally stopped in front of the Golden Autumn Pavilion.
There was no secretary standing in front of the solemn gate of the Golden Autumn Pavilion.
President Li Huacheng of Zhongzhou State stood at the door and watched the Rolls-Royce getting closer and closer, with a smile on his face.
A silent woman with an imposing manner quickly got out of the car and opened the back door of the Rolls-Royce.
Summer Solstice, the wife of the patriarch of the Wang family of Beihai, walked out and shook hands with Li Huacheng with a smile. She said softly, “Mr. President, sorry to disturb you.”
“You don’t have to be so polite, madam.”
Li Huacheng shook his head with a smile and reached out his hand, saying, “Please.”
The hostess of the Wang family of Beihai, who had never stepped into the Hidden Dragon Sea for more than 20 years, smiled blandly.
But there was a kind of sharpness that seemed to have been forgotten by others in her, and it gradually began to emerge. She was dignified but irresistible.
At the same time.
Under the sky of Beihai, in the laboratory on Mount Dibing, and beside the huge bronze tripod, Wang Xiaoyao, who had been silent for a long time in the Dark World and even in Zhongzhou State, put a box in the bronze tripod with a solemn face.
The enormous sword named Coldness of Nine States stood there quietly, but the natural Sword Energy forcibly broke the extremely solid box without anyone activating it.
A black bracer in the box was exposed.
The bracer began to slowly expand, bringing with it an incomparable amount of intelligence as it wrapped itself around the body of the Coldness of Nine States.
The broad sword body of the Coldness of Nine States suddenly buzzed.
In an instant, invisible but extremely sharp Sword Energy flew in every corner of the lab hall.
Wang Xiaoyao watched this scene quietly.
The black sword was constantly trembling.
On the sword body, the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and seas seemed to be alive, becoming extremely vivid.
The Sword Energy became more and more violent, but it was extremely sharp and clear.
Looking at this scene, Wang Xiaoyao suddenly sighed with emotion.
It was the first time for the Wang family of Beihai’s divine weapon and a murderous weapon merged together.
At this moment, was the Human Emperor moving? Or was the Coldness of Nine States moving?
He pressed a button next to him.
A light shield gradually rose from the huge bronze tripod.
The blurry cyan light rose up, gradually enveloping the Human Emperor and the Coldness of Nine States.
In Lin’an, the sun was shining brightly.
The former Lonely Mountain had become the current Southeast Supervisory Institution.
The main construction of the Supervisory Institution had been completed.
The construction corps from the military region of Lin’an was still repairing other facilities in the Supervisory Institution day and night.
Dressed in plain clothes, Li Honghe sat quietly on a bluestone in the Supervisory Institution, facing the West Lake and silently watching the sinking sun.
An old man with a serious and majestic expression appeared in the blurred light and shadows.
Li Honghe froze for a moment and then smiled gently.
Several meticulous guards followed behind the old man.
The guards didn’t stop until Li Honghe was near them.
The old man came over and sat down beside Li Honghe. He wanted to speak but stopped on second thought.
“You can no longer sit still?”
Li Honghe glanced at him and chuckled.
“Recchi City…”
The old man’s eyebrows knitted tightly. “The situation is not good.”
“No, for us, the situation tonight is the best.”
Li Honghe smiled and suddenly said, “Do you believe me?”
The old man glanced at him, wondering if he was talking nonsense.
Li Honghe seemed to have got the answer. He nodded and said, “Since you believe in me, you can stay for dinner tonight. When this great drama is over, everything should be clear.”
At the same time.
When Zhongzhou State was about to be at dusk, in the International Airport of Recchi City, in the heavy rain and wind, Qin Weibai also boarded the plane to Lin’an, Zhongzhou State.
She didn’t have Flaming Fire by her side.
Lin Fengting was not by her side, either.
She was alone.
