Chapter 420 Praising the Sun! (Page 12)
Lin Qiye: “???”
Lu Baoyou: "!!!" (Don't you dare talk nonsense!)
Lin Qiye glanced at Lu Baoyou, then at Zhang Yun, and suddenly smiled:
"Sure, feel free to come and kill me."
After saying that, he calmly walked away.
Lu Baoyou: "..." (Are these people all crazy?!)
Zhang Yun stretched:
"Okay, problem solved."
"Use Lucifer's power as you please, without feeling burdened."
"As for whether or not to kill Lin Qiye... it's up to you."
Lu Baoyou was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice:
"Why help me?"
Zhang Yun smiled:
"Because I don't like Lucifer."
"and……"
He paused, his gaze unusually serious:
“The Night’s Watch should not be bound by the gods.”
Lu Baoyou was stunned.
That night, in the dormitory.
Lu Baoyou lay on the bed, repeatedly feeling the power within her body.
There was no tearing sensation, no burning of the soul, and Lucifer's whispers disappeared.
He really... succeeded in getting it for free!
Qian Duoduo from the next bed peeked out:
"Brother Lu, what are you laughing at?"
Lu Baoyou abruptly stopped smiling: "...I wasn't laughing."
Qian Duoduo: "You were clearly laughing just now!"
Lu Baoyou: "You've misunderstood."
Qian Duoduo: "Oh... then why are your fists shaking?"
Lu Baoyou: "...Get lost."
But he did feel a sense of relief he had never felt before.
—So this is what it feels like to not be bound by contracts…
...
Late at night, at the recruit training camp.
The moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, and the entire camp was shrouded in deathly silence.
Suddenly, a thick, grayish-white fog silently surged in from all directions, quickly engulfing the dormitories, training grounds, and canteen...
In the mist, it seemed as if countless eyes were secretly watching.
This is no ordinary fog.
—This is the "Mist of Concealment" of the Church of the Ancient Gods!
From the depths of the fog, seven figures slowly emerged.
They were originally "ordinary cadets" mixed in with the new recruits, but now, their eyes are cold and they exude an eerie aura that does not belong to humans.
The leader was a blond youth with blazing golden flames dancing in his pupils.
—【Sunfire】, the representative of the sun god Apollo!
He smiled slightly, a ray of scorching sunlight igniting at his fingertips: "Finally... I can let loose."
Beside him, a gaunt, skeletal man gave a sinister smile, and a pitch-black willow branch appeared in his hand.
—【Mingliu】, the agent of Rhadamanthus, the judge of the Greek underworld!
The other five also exuded a terrifying aura:
【Blood Vine】(Flesh Manipulator)
[Shadow Erosion] (Shadow Devourer)
【The Curse of Corruption】(Plague Spreader)
[Bone Chirp] (Undead Manipulator)
Nightmare (Mental Pollution)
The seven people exchanged a smile and simultaneously raised their hands—
"Law - Breaking the Restriction!"
A strange ripple spread out, and the Zhenxu Stele in the center of the camp trembled violently. Then, with a "crack", a crack appeared!
—Restrictions lifted!
—Their strength has been fully restored!
[Sunfire] grinned maliciously as he raised his hand, a miniature sun condensing in his palm: "Which one should we start with?"
[Mingliu] said coldly, "Instructors have priority... especially that Zhang Yun."
[Blood Vine] licked her lips: "The screams of new recruits... must taste delicious."
The seven people split up and each locked onto a target.
New recruits' dormitory.
Qian Duoduo was having a sweet dream, muttering to himself, "Chicken leg...hehe...my chicken leg..."
Suddenly, the window shattered with a "bang"!
[Shadow Erosion]'s figure slid in like a ghost, the shadow turning into a sharp blade, piercing straight for Qian Duoduo's throat!
At the critical moment——
"Qiang!"
A silver scalpel was precisely deflected; An Qingyu appeared at the bedside unnoticed, her eyes behind her glasses as calm as ice.
"A sneak attack in the middle of the night...isn't that impolite?"
[Shadow Erosion]'s pupils contracted: "How could you..."
Before he could finish speaking, An Qingyu's other hand was already pressed against his chest:
"Dissection begins."
"Pfft——!"
[Shadow Erosion]'s chest was instantly sliced open, and blood gushed out!
In the center of the training field.
[Sunfire] hovered in the air, holding up a blazing orb of light in his hands, and sneered, "Nightfall Squad... turn to ashes!"
He slammed the ball of light into the ground!
"boom--!!!"
A terrifying explosion swept across the entire area, and flames shot skyward!
However, after the smoke and dust cleared—
Lin Qiye had one hand in his pocket and the other holding a straight sword with a faint black light swirling around its blade, which split the ball of light in two!
He looked up, his gaze icy: "That's it?"
[Sunfire]'s expression changed drastically: "How is this possible?!"
In the cafeteria.
【Mingliu】waving its jet-black willow branches, tables and chairs turned into rotten wood chips wherever it went.
He walked toward Jiang Er, who was sitting in the corner, with a sinister smile: "Little girl... your soul is mine now."
Jiang Er blinked, then suddenly revealed an innocent smile:
"you sure?"
The next second, her body suddenly became ethereal, turning into countless fragments of spirit!
[Mingliu]'s attack pierced through her body, having no effect whatsoever!
Jiang Er's voice came from all directions:
"In spirit form... you're immune to physical attacks!"
[Ming Liu]: "...???"
Outside the camp.
Bloodvine and Corruption are lurking in the shadows, preparing to ambush the lone instructor.
Suddenly, a lazy voice sounded from behind:
"What's up?"
The two turned around abruptly and saw Zhang Yun standing behind them, a lollipop dangling from his mouth.
[Blood Vine] grinned maliciously: "You're asking for death!"
His flesh twisted and turned into countless sharp tentacles, stabbing towards Zhang Yun!
however--
"Shh!"
All the tentacles froze in mid-air, as if a pause button had been pressed!
Zhang Yun's pupils transformed into the eyes of the Sun, Moon, and Candle Dragon, and he said calmly:
"Time... paused."
The minds of [Blood Vine] and [Corruption Curse] are still functioning, but their bodies are completely unable to move!
They discovered to their horror—
Zhang Yun slowly walked up to them, reached out and poked [Blood Vine]'s face: "Flesh manipulation? That's disgusting."
He sniffed the plague-like scent of the [Corruption Curse] again: "Ugh... bad breath."
The two: "..." (inner screams)
Dormitory area.
Li Zhenzhen was awakened by the explosion. As soon as she rushed out of the room, she was surrounded by the undead skeletons controlled by [Bone Chirp]!
She gritted her teeth and drew her bow; golden flames clung to the arrow.
"Cupid's arrow... hits!"
The arrow pierced the skeleton, and flames instantly spread, burning the undead to ashes!
[Bone Ring] was shocked: "What kind of arrow can injure and kill a spirit?!"
Li Zhenzhen sneered: "I specialize in dealing with those who dare to defy me!"
On the other side, Liu Yang and Qian Duoduo were shrouded in the mental pollution of the [Nightmare], and countless terrifying illusions appeared before their eyes!
Qian Duoduo screamed in terror, clutching her head: "Ahhh! A ghost!!!"
Liu Yang bit his tongue hard, forcing himself to stay awake: "Don't be afraid! It's all fake!"
He picked up a brick from the ground and smashed it onto Nightmare's forehead!
"boom!"
[Nightmare] rolled her eyes and collapsed to the ground: "You... how could you hit an illusionist..."
Liu Yang: "Nonsense! A brick is the best weapon against fancy tricks!"
In the center of the camp.
Lu Baoyou spread her six wings, and dark red energy surged like a tide, forcing [Shadow Eclipse] back!
[Shadow Erosion] grinned maliciously: "Fallen angel? Too bad... you're still too green!"
He transformed into a shadow and closed in instantly!
However, a cold smile curled at the corner of Lu Baoyou's mouth:
"Fallen Angels - Final Judgment!"
Suddenly, the six wings burst forth with a blinding dark red light, and a destructive torrent of energy erupted!
"boom--!!!"
[Shadow Erosion] was vaporized before it could even scream!
...
The pitch-black night sky was torn apart into daylight.
【Sunflare】—The representative of the sun god Apollo, suspended in the sky, his body burning with blazing golden divine flames.
His pupils were like two shrunken suns, and every breath he took was accompanied by terrifying heat. The surrounding air twisted and steamed, as if even space itself trembled under his oppressive aura.
"Zhang Yun...you are very strong."
The sound of 【日炎】 is like rolling lava, deep and scorching.
"But how long can you endure under the radiance of the sun?"
He spread his arms, and a blazing sun phantom with a diameter of 100 meters suddenly appeared behind him. The blinding light caused the new recruits on the ground to cover their eyes, and their skin was burned and stung.
This is true divine power!
— Punishment by the Sun God!
Faced with this earth-shattering pressure, Zhang Yun merely sighed softly and shook his head:
"Young people these days... they're always setting off in the sun, it's not environmentally friendly at all."
Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly swelled up!
"boom--!!!"
With bulging muscles and cracking bones, his body transformed in an instant into a bronze giant a hundred meters tall, his skin covered with ancient runes, each line exuding the aura of time.
—The incarnation of the Candle Dragon!
He looked up, his sun-and-moon eyes staring directly at [Sunfire], and grinned:
"Come, let me see... can your sun burn through time!"
[Sunfire] roared, and the blazing sun phantom suddenly shrank, transforming into a thousand-meter-long sun god spear, which slammed down towards Zhang Yun's head!
"boom--!!!"
Wherever the gun passed, the space was scorched with black cracks, and the terrifying heat caused the camp below to burst into flames instantly!
Zhang Yun neither dodged nor evaded; the giant's true form raised its hand and grasped—
"Time Freezes!"
In an instant, the speed of the Sun God Spear decreased sharply, as if it had sunk into an invisible quagmire!
Zhang Yun clenched his other fist, the fist tip wrapped with the power of time reversal, and punched [Sunfire] in the chest!
"boom--!!!"
[Sunfire] was sent flying thousands of meters by this punch, spitting out golden divine blood, his face filled with disbelief:
"The laws of time?! Who exactly are you?!"
Zhang Yun grinned: "Guess?"
One side of the camp.
【The Willow of the Underworld】—The agent of Rhadamanthus, the judge of the Greek underworld, who holds a jet-black willow branch and is surrounded by an aura of death.
Beneath his feet, the earth turned into scorched, decaying soil, withered vegetation, and life perished.
Lin Qiye stood opposite him, the straight sword in the black box slowly unsheathed, a faint black light swirling around its blade.
