From Secret Clan to the Divine Dynasty

Chapter 142: Chapter 136: Gruesome

Aaron’s body, bisected by the monochromatic water light, collapsed on the ground, bleeding profusely with his entrails strewn about, his eyes gradually losing the look of disbelief.

The reality of the battlefield is such, death can occur at any moment, and aside from Irene, everyone from the Fischer family turned pale.

One after another, monochromatic water lights shot from the hillside to the top of the mountain, skimming past everyone, and then, like wheat being harvested, person after person fell to the ground.

Their bodies were instantly split apart, whether it was armor, weapons, or shields, none could withstand the force of that monochromatic water light.

Any object touched by the monochromatic water light would be cleaved in two, with no exceptions as far as the eye could see.

“Transcend!”

Byrne was frantic, the purple-red stone yielding no response. Even though his Spiritual Power hadn’t fully recovered, he immediately activated the rune power of “transcend.”

He fixated on each monochromatic water light that came his way, his mind racing with analysis, and soon he shouted out his thoughts:

“Keep moving, never stay in one place, neither seeking cover nor hiding will help!”

Hiding proved fruitless because even the trees and rocks on the mountain top couldn’t block the monochromatic water lights; anything they touched would be split in two.

On the hillside, everyone could see a figure composed entirely of water, the water being floated calmly mid-air, continually shooting out monochromatic water lights.

They were like the merciless reapers of death, crazy plunderers, killing and destroying everything they touched over a hundred meters away!

The followers of the Sea God Cult were almost completely annihilated, but the remaining one was extremely troublesome; the recent violent explosions and Baron Vaughn’s attack had no effect whatsoever!

What should they do?

Every member of the Fischer family was considering their options. On the other side of the mountain top, Baron Vaughn had already charged out, bellowing.

He covered himself in radiant armor at breakneck speed, heading straight for the water being.

“Trash of the Sea God Cult!”

However, the water being floating on the hillside suddenly raised its hand and shot out several water lights in an instant.

The first one seemed to be deflected by some Mysterious rare artifact, shooting off in a different direction, while the other water lights ripped through Baron Vaughn’s radiant armor in a flash, severely wounding him until he bled profusely.

“Help me!”

Chris suddenly shouted, bursting through the crowd, daggers in his hands gleaming with a silver radiance!

At that moment, Verne, in a state of panic, fell to the ground; half of his head had been sliced off by the monochromatic water light at some point, and Byrne saw dozens of family soldiers dead around him.

“Great Lord of the Lost, you…ah!”

Irene had collapsed to the ground, muttering to herself, not hesitating to sacrifice herself, but just then, she felt a severe pain in her head, as if a red-hot iron spike was being driven deep into her brain, burning, tearing!

“Aaaaahhhhh!”

She trembled and wailed, clutching her head and convulsing on the spot; it was the automatic activation of a Mysterious rare artifact meant for defense that Priest Azure Blue carried.

People from the Fischer family were stunned, having never anticipated that Irene’s prayer could be interrupted!

“Huh, amongst this group of insignificant weaklings, there’s actually someone who can pose a lethal threat to me? Just now, my ‘Reverse Stab’ artifact was forced to activate.”

Priest Azure Blue looked at Baron Vaughn, who had almost become a bloodied figure before him, with disdain, yet there was a hint of confusion in his tone.

The next moment, he saw a thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, slowly approaching his position.

“The tactic of long-distance combat was your choice, and now you must struggle to get close to me, hahaha!”

Priest Azure Blue laughed aloud, raising his hand to shoot a monochromatic water light, which the thin man narrowly dodged with an instant shift in position.

“Huh, interesting. Are you a Spellcaster with shape-shifting abilities, or do you possess a similar power of Bloodline, or is there a powerful Mysterious rare artifact on you?”

He paused, his interest piqued.

“Bang!”

An unexpected gunshot rang out, and a flintlock bullet precisely passed through the water being’s body.

It was futile; neither flame nor bullet could inflict even a scratch on a body that had highly developed the Formless Water Demon Bloodline.

Priest Azure Blue was filled with scorn.

However, in the next instant, the thin man who had just switched places with the bullet appeared behind Priest Azure Blue.

Priest Azure Blue didn’t look back but instead shot two monochromatic water lights from behind him at high speed, piercing through the body of the gold-glasses-wearing thin man.

“Byrne” wore a look of astonishment and horror, then his damaged body dispersed into vapor.

It was a Body Double!

Priest Azure Blue paused for a moment, scanning his surroundings to locate his opponent, but soon saw a tremendously frightening figure!

The Tempest Bishop, the Thunderous Monarch!

He had unexpectedly appeared, standing at the top of the mountain, looking down with angry eyes upon him!

“Absolutely impossible!”

Priest Azure Blue was momentarily terrified and instinctively stepped back, then realized it was something entirely impossible!

It wasn’t him!

It was a fake!

Theo, using a fake-spirit card, stood in the most conspicuous spot on the mountaintop, posing as the Tempest Bishop “Thunderous Monarch,” staring angrily and vulnerably at Azure Blue.

He was sweat-drenched, aware that if his opponent launched a frantic attack in his direction, he was as good as dead.

“`

“To sacrifice my life for the Fischer family is my mission!”

Theo took a deep breath, snapping his fingers with the determination of a man ready to die.

“Snap!”

Today, through the Extraordinary trait “bestow”, he had acquired the ability “Shape-shifting”!

The next moment, the “Thunderous Monarch” suddenly appeared beside Priest Azure Blue, with a cold gaze that made him cry out in shock.

“Ah!”

Azure Blue was horrified and instinctively tried to launch a full assault on the “Thunderous Monarch” before him but quickly realized it was futile—this was a fake, not the real enemy he should be guarding against!

Theo immediately took the opportunity to snap his fingers.

“Snap!”

Meanwhile, Byrne had already reached Azure Blue’s back—and the next moment, he snapped his fingers to swap places with Chris.

“So that’s it, there are actually two people who can move through space in an instant!”

In the face of life and death, Azure Blue quickly calmed down and suddenly swung his arm, releasing two streams of deathly plain-colored water light.

One stream of plain-colored water light was about to hit Theo, but in the next instant, Theo had swapped places with a distant stone, while the other stream directly hit Chris, who had swapped places with Byrne!

His right arm and leg were instantly severed, blood crazily spraying into the air, drenching the sky. Chris, expressionless, clutched the only remaining dagger in his left hand and precisely stabbed towards the nearly invincible powerful water being in front of him.

Ignore defense! Hit the weak spot!

His silver gleaming dagger pierced the core hidden inside the water being’s body, assembling everyone’s strength and finally dealing a serious blow to Priest Azure Blue!

Nevertheless, it wasn’t enough.

A true powerhouse who had reached the high-level Transmutation echelon was ultimately not a being they could kill.

“You are all going to die!”

Azure Blue, though heavily wounded, was still alive and more furious than ever.

He was about to release another plain-colored water light, aiming to completely kill Chris before him.

Azure Blue was so consumed by anger that he completely failed to consider that a few insignificant people had managed to seriously injure him!

How could it be, am I really that weak?

Chris lay on the ground with severe blood loss and a mutilated body, unable to move and completely incapable of dodging the impending lethal attack.

“Chris!”

Byrne yelled, his eyes bulging as he did not hesitate to snap his fingers, wanting to swap with Chris and be ready to take the lethal blow in his stead!

The next moment, the plain-colored water light shot straight towards Chris’s head.

Then, Byrne swapped places with him, also feeling the cool sensation above his head.

It was the deathly plain-colored water light that reaped all life.

I am going to die.

He had that realization in an instant.

In the moment Byrne was about to be hit by the deadly attack, the emerald hexagonal box on his body suddenly erupted with an intense black light, and a black mirror shard flew out and hovered motionless in front of Priest Azure Blue.

It was the Mysterious rare artifact bestowed by Viscount Bast!

The plain-colored water light suddenly dissolved, and Byrne, still alive, stood shocked, disbelieving.

Soon they all saw Priest Azure Blue staring dumbfounded at the mirror, frozen for a long time as if trapped in some vast confusion.

“Yes!”

Byrne bellowed, not giving up the only chance and immediately snapped his fingers to use “Shape-shifting” to swap with the dying Chris.

Chris, gravely injured and expressionless, wielded his weapon several times with his last bit of willpower, piercing the core of Priest Azure Blue, finally feeling the latter’s death.

Afterward, he completely passed out.

The powerful Priest Azure Blue had finally died, the ruler of tens of thousands across the White Sea, a high-ranking figure of the Sea God Cult, had carelessly perished at the hands of a small family.

He hadn’t even had the chance to use his last resort, a powerful Forbidden relic.

However, the Fischer and Vaughn families had also suffered heavy casualties, with nearly half of all family soldiers dead, and the Vaughn family had even lost its head of the family.

With Irene unconscious, Byrne could only use high-grade medicine to treat Chris, barely managing to save him. Afterward, Byrne received unbelievable news from Theo who was tallying.

Aaron was dead, Verne was dead, the Abbott siblings were both dead, and even Erik was dead.

“Erik, Erik…”

Theo shook his head. Not far away, an obvious gash had been cut across Erik’s chest, his upper body stained red with blood.

The bloodline of Old Ramon was thus severed!

Byrne’s eyes widened, feeling profound sadness welling up from deep within, his shoulders trembling slightly with each heavy breath, tears streaming uncontrollably.

He had come to view Erik almost as family.

Staring at the boy’s corpse, the pain in his heart grew sharper, as if a sharp knife were cutting through the depths of his soul.

Suddenly, Byrne understood Bast’s words: years of warfare had changed many, and some would never forget the madness they experienced overseas.
