Chapter 499: Intercept and Reward 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The black stone pillars stood upright on the ground.

In the center of the gravelly dirt, between the stone pillars, a pitch-black stone city stood quietly. Its hundred-meters-long city walls stood at a height of ten meters, and the top of the wall was armed with archers dressed in various clothes, who were holding bows and arrows and constantly shooting downwards.

The scene below the wall was dark and messy, while groups of men in torn grey clothes held spears, axes and other weapons as they surrounded the main gate of the city walls.

Looking down from the sky, one could see more than a thousand people in the siege army, while there were only ten people barely supporting the city gates. Among the sea of tightly packed heads, blue and red light explosions would occur occasionally, and after each explosion, more than ten people would be sent flying, creating empty spaces. But these inferior troops did not retreat, instead, they remained red-eyed, as if they had lost all reason, and charged towards the city walls mindlessly.

Occasional band noises echoed over faintly, but the siege army did not yell and remained silent while they charged, giving people an eerie vibe.

"Do not let them take the Precious Heirlooms! Or else, no one in this world will be able to stop them anymore!" said a man with a black beard in a low voice, while standing on top of the city walls.

Beside him were a few boys and girls, but none of them possessed any signs of youthful immaturity. Every one of them had resolute expressions on their faces, as they looked at the killing fields below them with no fear at all.

"News has arrived from the King of Osa," said a boy softly. "The monsters on Withdrawal Bridge have increased, so we should be careful."

When the chaos began in Osa, the only means of entry and exit, the Withdrawal Bridge, had been occupied by monsters, making it unusable, before the bridge itself was blown up and broken as well. Osa was a natural valley and cave country situated in the southernmost part of the East Continent, hence it was always somewhat disconnected from the rest of the world, and after its communication got cut off from the outside recently, it had become even more of a lone army, and lost all news of the outside world.

"Our clan has guarded the Demon Phoenix for more than two thousand years already, and I once assumed that with this talented generation of people, we would finally have a hope of ending the thousand-year-old grudge, I never expected that…" Blackbeard touched a scar on his forehead.

"If the Demon Phoenix escapes, then…"

"Tony." Among the boys and girls, a delicate and pretty girl in leather armor reached her hand out and held Blackbeard's right palm gently. ‘Tony' meant ‘father' in the Osa language, meaning that she was obviously this man's daughter.

"Don't say such discouraging things, Big Brother has inherited the Moon Scar, and will definitely not let the Demon Phoenix break the Seal!" The girl's brown armor hugged her figure tightly, showing the curves of her body, while her long black hair was tied in a smooth, high ponytail that flowed straight down but curved slightly, before flowing down again, giving off a heroically spirited vibe.

"That's right, uncle, we've inherited the Moon Scar, and will definitely not let the Demon Phoenix break the Seal!" said the leading boy enthusiastically, before the other boys and girls voiced their agreement as well.

"The source of the Demon Phoenix's strength is Black Gold, but that's not a big deal because once we destroy the Black Gold, we will be able to destroy the curse temporarily." Blackbeard lifted his hands slowly, before raising them up high.

"Charge!!!" "Kill them!!" They yelled loudly, before dull galloping noises could be heard, as more than a hundred horsemen charged out of the city gates. Just like a sharp knife, they began massacring crowds of people while faint yellow halos illuminated their bodies, and they held long swords that cut through their enemies precisely and killed them in one go as if they were slicing through stalks of wheat.

"Ready! If this killing continues, the Demon Cloud Puppets will suffer great losses, and will definitely not last long, so they should be moving out soon…" Blackbeard stared deeply, before turning his attention towards a further area. "Those without the Moon Scar will be unable to fight the Demon, so the rest will depend on all of you."

The crowd of boys and girls nodded solemnly. Dull hums could be heard from their bodies, and after each sound, an additional dark gold glow would appear on their bodies.

This glow resembled an aura that was constantly emitting from their bodies, before these children's figures underwent slight changes, as if they had expanded, becoming much taller and bigger than they were before.

"Leave it to us, uncle." The leading boy grabbed the two large hilts at his waist. "Let's go!"

He turned around and led the others down the city walls.

"Everyone, move back!! Retreat, retreat!!" The leader of the cavalry team roared and led his team back quickly. The Totem Users in the team released Tactic glows constantly, but strangely enough, none of them released any Totems for battle, but just drew Tactics to do battle instead. Even though some of the people in the cavalry team were injured, they still had no plans to release their Totems.

On a tall dark cliff near Black Mountain City

Three figures in purple armor stood beside the cliff quietly, looking at the mountainous city from afar.

"We cannot let the Demon Cloud Puppets suffer great losses, as these are still our Lord's nutrients." A girlish voice echoed from the girl in purple armor in front, and although her voice was curt and cold, it carried faint tones of seriousness, as if two versions of herself were speaking simultaneously.

"After a thousand years of entanglement with one another, we have finally reached the moment where we are separated into victory or defeat," said another person in purple armor, and this time, it was a low male voice. "The Demon Phoenix Peak from a thousand years ago will finally begin again, and this time, no one will be able to obstruct our Lord's majesty and power!"

"Once we kill the last of these Moon Scars, there will no longer be anything standing in the way of Our Lord conquering the world!" The last purple armored man had a shrill voice but harbored a violent air about him.

"Move out." The purple armored girl took a step forward and walked directly off the cliff, before flying downwards.

Shh!!

A pair of large purple flesh wings grew out of her back suddenly, and flapped in the air, flying towards the battlefield not far from there.

The other two people flew off the cliff as well, after a pair of wings grew out of their backs, while they followed the girl closely.

Behind the three people, on top of the black cliff, at the center of the mountain, a large Lone Eye blinked open.

The bloodied Lone Eye seemed to be made up of mountain rocks but actually consisted of countless stones, plants, and trees that had twisted together, forming the shape of a large eye. It looked towards the black mountainous city from afar.

The Lone Eye's gaze seemed to pass through empty spaces, and reached the city wall of the mountain city, looking directly at the two eyes of the delicate girl beside Blackbeard.

The girl felt dizzy before a white pale blue crescent-shaped scar silently floated up on the right side of her face.

"We meet again, young Osaka." A cold, female voice could be heard throughout the sky above the whole city.

The girl shivered, while pale blue auras were released from her body constantly, as she tried to resist the large pressure from its gaze.

"I won't let you get away so easily!!" The girl ground her teeth determinedly, while her body continued to shiver uncontrollably, but after awhile, cold sweat had soaked through her inner protective cotton armor completely.

Blackbeard was uncomfortable as well, even more so than his own daughter, as his entire body was surrounded by purple light, and his face was stiff, making it impossible for him to retaliate while he was half-kneeling on the ground.

"I can feel the air of fate…" the woman's cold voice lamented. "Everything that happened today is fate allowing me to escape, and the world will finally be changed because of me… Boom!!!"

Before she finished speaking, a light pillar consisting of translucent black chains fell from the sky, suddenly crashing into the center of the battlefield. The light pillar possessed a diameter of a few meters and resembled a large tree, and remained on the ground for more than ten seconds, with strong ripples of power that resembled hurricanes, that sent the surrounding people flying at once, like dusty ants that had been blown away by fierce winds.

Endless humming noises interrupted and masked the Lone Eye's voice, making it impossible to hear the rest of her speech.

"God Cloud, you can't escape anymore," said a man's voice from high above in the sky.

The chain light pillar dispersed slowly, before a ray of white light shot out suddenly, towards the direction of the Lone Eye in the black mountain wall.

"No!! That's the Demon Phoenix Seal's land!!" The father and daughter looked downwards, before their pupils widened suddenly, while the three people in purple armor who were going up against the Moon Scar youths earlier, opened their mouths in shock as well.

"That's the way! That's the way! Hahaha! I'm finally going to break the seal!! A thousand years! A thousand years of…" An insanely ecstatic expression appeared on the Lone Eye's face suddenly, as its unsuppressible noises of joy echoed throughout the entire sky.

Tch!

Throughout the sky, black clouds gathered, forming a tall man in a black robe. His golden hair flew in the wind, and a proud expression beamed in his eyes contemptuously, like a cat that had caught a mouse.

He raised a single hand up high, before pressing it down suddenly.

Countless black clouds gathered, and formed a large black hand instantly, before violently clawing at the white light that God Cloud had created.

"This is fate! You cannot obstruct fate!!" The Demon Phoenix's voice grew more high-pitched.

"Deep Demon Arm!!" God Cloud's voice echoed throughout the white light suddenly.

Instantly, everyone felt the black light flash, before their eyesight became blurry, and within the white light, a sharp, pitch-black hand stretched outwards slowly. It moved directly towards the large black cloud hand that came swinging at it.

Boom!!

A large mushroom-like black cloud exploded suddenly, and the white light was refracted into shards by the explosion, before crashing into the Lone Eye in the mountain wall.

"Die!!" The voice of the black-clothed man echoed throughout the sky suddenly.

The crowd of people on the battlefield merely heard the crackling of electricity.

A black lightning bolt shot towards the ground violently.

"Oh, ~~~ Oh~~~ It's coming! It's coming!! Coming…" After that, only the noise of crashing thunder could be heard.

"Hahaha!!! I have finally come out… Ah!!" Before the Demon Phoenix finished speaking, a painful cry could be heard, stopping it instantly.

At this moment, the Moon Scar youths, Black City cavalry Totem Users that were fighting, and the three purple armored, winged people, all looked at each other, as their minds had become dull as if everything had become a sticky mess.

"The grudge between you and me finally ends today!!" The black-clothed man's voice echoed from afar.

"Black Swamp Palace Master! Don't force us to go overboard!!" echoed another girl's voice angrily.

"Hehe!!"

The three purple armored people stopped in mid-air while looking at the land of the Seal from afar, where the Lone Eye was positioned.

Two separate rays of black and white light intertwined and fought there constantly, while ripples of power that almost seemed physical permeated around, and everything that came in contact with the ripples melted and decomposed, turning into puddles of black goo.
