Chapter 4306 The First Son's First Battle
Chapter 4306 The First Child - First Battle
The sound of the waves became the only noise in this red world, and the movement of the huge, silver-headed monster opening its mouth and probing towards the pink beach seemed to slow down. Completely different from the disgust and revulsion evoked by "Abomination," this thing looked so holy, yet so insane.
"Iluna, take them and get out of here first!"
Even without turning back, Shad knew that Iluna was among those who remained rational; this was an absolute trust in the nineteen-year-old girl.
He didn't turn around, but instead recalled the scene when he first saw this terrifying monster in the coffin during his escape from the Bloodstained Factory. Shad raised his right hand, drawing the "Spark" from the sand into his palm, then magnetically attached it to the Night Watchman:
"Moonlight Greatsword!"
The flame of life flowed along the sword's blade, burning flames adorning the hilt. Shad gripped the magnificent runic greatsword tightly with both hands, aiming it at the abyss-like maw:
"Moonlight Ray - Third Form!"
The pure silver moonfire turned crimson due to the red moonlight greatsword, and then merged with the life spark. Brilliant beams of light, shimmering with iridescent hues, silently erupted from the beach. Lady Thorne's memories had shown that the spark source could harm this monster.
But from the gaping black mouth of the "Abomination - First Child," the spark held by the [Holy Son Alliance] also shone brightly.
The next second, amidst the roar of the waves, the crimson light spewed from the black mouth collided with the azure light cannon fired by Shad, and the light on Shad's side visibly shrank backward.
The monster, its enormous head emerging from the ocean, continued to open its mouth toward the shore. The red ocean provided it with almost limitless life energy, which was then ejected through the spark source.
Shad's clothes billowed backward from the violent outburst of energy, and his feet retreated further and further into the sand, creating two deep furrows. The monster's terrifying silver face drew ever closer to the beach, its gaping mouth ever closer to Shad, until the shadow of its entire head completely obscured him.
It looks like it has no neck, or its huge head is not fully above the sea surface, so people cannot see the part below the sea.
"Sunlight Gun!"
But Iluna did not lead everyone to retreat as Shad had requested. She hurled her crimson sungun, powerful enough to harm any Fate Holder. This time, however, Iluna's lightning failed to leave a mark on the silver monster's head; the supreme power of the sun was not the bane of life. And after merging with the "First Child," Iluna's balancing power could no longer affect "Abomination."
At this moment, Xivi's seven-colored emotional energy also transformed into seven colored light cannons that bombarded upwards. Among them, the yellow light, which symbolized "fear," was the strongest, but it only slightly slowed down the speed at which the monster peeked out.
Miss Eden wanted to re-enter "Angel Mode," but the red sky was suppressing her bloodline power.
The 13th-ring sorceress of the Church of the Sun then retrieved her first relic since the start of the war. She pierced her chest with a golden needle of unknown relic level, and then Miss Eden stomped her right foot on the beach, and a huge sun emblem appeared on the sand like a divine ritual array.
"Divine Spell: Sun Shower!"
The relics further stimulated the power of the bloodline. Although the sun did not appear in this world full of vitality, a faint golden light still appeared in the sky.
Hundreds of dazzling golden beams of light descended from the sky, bombarding the silver-headed monster. A foul golden light shone on its body, but this time, whether it was because "Abomination" was already severely injured or because the relic provided power, Miss Eden's divine magic tore through "Abomination's" barrier.
The First Child's enormous round head appeared to be about to shatter, riddled with cracks. However, with the surge of massive life energy, the injuries inflicted by Miss Eden's attack were healed by the red ocean.
But this 13th-ring sorceress with angelic blood still managed to inflict the most effective attack of all.
"Stop!"
Emilia has transformed into her Archetype form, with the life ring on her back resembling a dark gold dial supported by a sapling. The sound of the Ocarina of Time being swung is like that of a real flute, but this world is influencing her control over time. The time rules of this world, which represents the origin of all things, are clearly different from those of the material world.
Even so, Emilia persisted in casting her spell, sensing that the time of the grotesque silver monster before her was clearly connected to this ocean. Initially, the monster was completely unaffected by the power of time, but as the red ocean healed its injuries inflicted by the attacks, Emilia's time-stopping technique gradually slowed it down.
The elven girl did not hear the sound that was drowned out by the waves. Even though the chosen one of time, who had not yet grown up, could not affect this world, there was still a great witch of time who was close to being a demigod here.
The time they gained together was valuable. The rustling sound of freezing appeared on the pink coast. Winnie gave up maintaining her flesh and blood form. Of course, the crystal-clear girl couldn't completely freeze the sea, but she could still make the red seawater on the coast freeze briefly.
The extreme cold suppressed life energy, and the frozen seawater further slowed the speed at which the silver-headed monster opened its mouth and approached the shore.
The battle between the two beams of light continued, and Shad seized the opportunity the ladies had created for him, a bone piccolo floating from his pocket. As the piccolo played, a crack appeared out of thin air under the red sky, and before the figure behind the crack could appear, a dense power of death invaded this world filled with bizarre life.
The world tried to reject that figure, but the charred wings still unfurled from the red sky. For a moment, the red ocean seemed somewhat illusory; the power of death, because of the appearance of this figure, actually forced a portion of the "Sea of Origin" that had briefly appeared out of the material world.
That wasn't the figure of Priest Augustus. A charred angelic halo hovered above a skull burning with cold, deadly flames. The angelic projector summoned by Ying Shad seemed completely unsurprised by the scene before them.
Shad summoned Priest Augustus, hoping he could weaken Abomination's power by taking the angel's remains from its body, but the priest clearly had no intention of doing so.
A golden horn appeared in the hand of the angel who proclaimed the end of the world, and the angel faced the red sky and blew the horn—
Ugh~
In that instant, everything seemed to vanish, even the surging red sea seemed to freeze for a moment. The fate of the end of all things briefly and completely suppressed the power of this small space, and someone seized the opportunity brought by Priest Augustus—
"A predetermined death!"
Black flames coiled around the dark golden scythe, and Sister Daphne appeared above the silver-headed monster without anyone noticing. The Chosen One of the Thirteen Rings swung the scythe, and a black line appeared on the top of the silver-headed monster's skull.
Click!
It was like shattered glass, or like the entire space itself had crumbled. As the silver head was cleaved in two along the black fire line, a red, glass-like beam of light pierced through the very center of the enormous head, engulfing it completely with a deafening roar.
As Sister Daphne landed steadily beside the panting Shad, only burning debris remained on the shore, continuously falling towards the red ocean. The debris resembled silver, metallic feathers; the scene was so sacred it brought tears to one's eyes, yet no one could understand why such a mad destruction of life could produce such a phenomenon.
The charred angel, who had been of great help, vanished into thin air. There wasn't even time to recover any potential source power from the wreckage. Sounding the horn was also extremely difficult for the priest, whose power had been forcibly expelled by the "Sea of Origin."
Shad also did not help the priest search for the possible angel remains; even with the help of the Fire Source, he had just expended a great deal of energy. [Life Regeneration] was helping him frantically gather life force from this world.
The magical technique that Adele taught Shad in her past life was invented to enrich life force in the barren and dangerous environment of the apocalypse. At this moment, the efficiency of this technique in replenishing Shad's life force is even a hundred times higher than in the normal world.
It rained, and the red rain of blood fell amidst the scattered silver metallic feathers, making the red waves surge even more violently, as if this small world was shaking with rage.
But Shad paid no heed to the blood and feathers; he simply faced the red ocean with a solemn expression, watching one after another, countless round heads emerge from the depths of the sea. They varied in size and shape, though only roughly circular, but their spiral eyes, like simple pencil drawings, and their black mouths were almost identical.
The number of creatures no longer mattered; the scene before them was more terrifying than the worst nightmare. The bizarre-looking creatures surfaced together, looking towards the shore. They weren't particularly concerned about their companions who would soon be reborn; they were only looking at the blasphemers who dared to bring the power of death into this place.
"Ang~"
The silver creatures roared in waves, their enormous cries like those of whales, shaking the very air. The sound was so powerful that the high-ring girls who had just arrived to help after dealing with the ring sorcerers of the Holy Son Alliance collapsed onto the sand as soon as they stepped onto the pink beach.
Few people remained standing on the shore, while the strange creatures from the ocean depths opened their mouths towards the beach, their crimson lights gathering power together.
