Chapter 748: Chapter 748

It was as if the entire city was under the same illusion as more and more people started coming out of their houses, running in the direction of Lucifer to get to him. 

"So you're the brother of the one who tried taking over my body? Instead of trying that, you're trying to take over others?" Lucifer asked, shaking his head in disappointment as he pushed his body up. 

The barrier appeared around his body, keeping him protected from the barrage of bullets.

He had just stood up when the ground split up under his feet. A figure came out from the ground under Lucifer, grabbed his feet, and pulled him inside. 

The ground closed above Lucifer. 

The cops stopped shooting and stood blank with no expressions on their faces. 

....

Inside the level Seven Dungeon, another discussion took place as things changed so fast. 

Looking at one of them there before Lucifer, the woman looked back, stunned. 

She looked back at the same man who had just talked to Lucifer. He was standing behind her. 

"How are you there and here at the same time?" she asked. "I didn't know you could do this. Let alone doing this, how did you even step out of the Dungeon when the barrier is still there?"

"That's not me." The man in the back smiled in response. 

"Who is that then?"

"That's just the fragment of myself that I was only able to send out because of his powers," the man said, glancing at the man on the throne. 

"It's just a weak fragment that can barely control the city. If I had gone out personally, I would've much rather controlled the entire world instead of being satisfied with one city."

"My Lord, you used your strength to send his fragment out? You wasted so much of your power. Shouldn't we save it since we need you in the upcoming battles?"

"It was important," the man on the throne replied. "Sometimes, you must sacrifice some things to get others."

"I... I understand," the woman nodded. "You are wise."

She turned back to the man who had interacted with Lucifer. 

"May I ask why you're trying to kill him though? Don't we need him here alive? If he's dead, can we still use the link?"

"We can," The man on the throne answered instead. "We don't necessarily need him alive. We just need him inside this place, Dead or Alive."

"My strength can only send a fragment of yours out and that too, momentarily since we are trapped here. We need him if we truly want to be free instead of waiting."

"Moreover, I told him to do it. We need him to come here. If he doesn't come to save his friends, he'll come for what he saw in the device."

"What if he doesn't come? He looked suspicious. I think he knows it's a trap. What if he doesn't come?" the woman asked. 

"That's why we did this," the man replied. "If we can kill him, it'll be easier. And if he is safe, that's good for us as well. He was most suspicious about why someone would invite you inside a Dungeon."

"I think he won't have that question now. It's better he thinks we want to kill him for revenge instead of him wondering why we're doing it. With the latter, he would've been more careful against the unknown. He wouldn't have come."

"All we can do is wait. Everything will be clear in a few minutes."

...

Lucifer was swallowed by the ground just a few minutes ago, but there has been no movement since then. 

Everyone inside the city had stepped on the roads, especially the Warlocks who were taking the lead. There were thousands of Variants who were surrounding the spot where Lucifer was standing previously. 

Behind them, there were millions of people. All the roads were blocked. The people included men, women, and kids. It was as if the entire city was on the streets, standing still like they were statues. 

Boom~

A figure came out from the ground, shooting straight to the sky, leaving a big hole in the ground. 

The figure flew straight to the sky, stopped right under the dark clouds. A man's neck rested in his hands, firmly grasped. 

The man struggled to free himself, only to fail repeatedly. His struggles soon stopped as his neck was crushed. 

Lucifer tossed his body aside before looking down. 

He could see millions of people on the street that were looking up at him like hungry wolves. 

The Variants who could fly flew up and surrounded Lucifer even in the sky. 

A cylinder-type formation was soon created around Lucifer, trapping him.

"Sigh, you all really know how to annoy me. I am ready though." He looked determined to stay here and face what was happening when he suddenly found himself distracted. 

He looked in a different direction, frowning. "They met up with Xaen."

He turned back to the millions of people under him. " I don't have time to fight you, it seems. You're too weak for me."

His figure disappeared from the spot as well, just when thousands of attacks were fired towards him. 

....

Back at the Warlock Council headquarters, the broadcast was finished.

Caen walked back and returned to his old self. 

"How was it?" he asked Kellian. 

Arthur and everyone else also formed a circle around them to get an update. 

"It was good. Now we can only hope we managed to delay the Warlock Council remnants momentarily. But we made thousands more enemies to achieve this feat. I think we can't relax."

"We need to tighten the security of the city. If the city falls, it would be really bad for the reputation of ours. We need to keep the city safe until Lucifer returns," Kellian said. 

"And until Her Majesty returns," Jiani chimed in. "Don't forget, she is as strong as Lucifer. It's just because of the bracelet that she listens to your boss."

"She is stronger than Lucifer?" Caen asked. "Maybe that was true when we had entered the Divine Empire for the first time, but not anymore. And I'm not exaggerating."

He still remembered the vision they were told about. In the vision, Lucifer was defeated by Milena. However, now that he had more abilities, including evolved ones, Lucifer was certainly stronger than Milena in his head. 

"Let's not argue about small things. I think they're both strong. Let's leave it at that," Arthur chimed in. 

"Anyways, when is everyone else returning from their missions? How long do we have to keep this place secure?"
