Game information is being sent to No One.
【White Night will occur when the City of Azure Flames is covered by white light from the Azure Flame for one continuous minute.】
【When the First Boss is defeated, the Sea of Flames will retract to 66%.】
【When the Second Boss is defeated, the Sea of Flames will retract to 33%.】
【When the Third Boss is defeated, the Sea of Flames will retract to 0%.】
【When the Immortal Blade collects the Azure Flame, the city will become Qiu Yu City.】
【When the Sea of Flames returns to its original state, the city will revert to the City of Azure Flames.】
【...】
【Information is restricted, insufficient permissions to view.】
No One pondered over the data being sent.
From this data, it could be vaguely understood that the intention of the NPCs out there is to turn Qiu Yu City back into the City of Azure Flames.
The condition for their victory is the re-establishment of the sea of flames.
And for the white light to cover the City of Azure Flames.
White Night will occur.
The condition for our victory is for that not to happen.
Recently, there have been too many unexpected events.
Even within this dungeon, the First Boss isn't finished yet, and there have been too many external disturbances.
He sighed.
No One really just wanted to fight the boss.Various factions in the First World, upon learning about the events occurring in Qiu Yu City, were thrown into chaos.
Endless arguments ensued between those who wanted White Night to happen and those who didn't.
However, none of them could do anything at present.
Qiu Yu City had severed its connection with the outside world.
All teleportation portals from other cities to Qiu Yu City were cut off.
Right now, at teleportation portals across various cities, throngs of people were attempting to get in.
Meanwhile, the chat channels of the guilds were equally in an uproar.
In the guild discussion channels, Mujou was grumbling about the unfolding event.
He was confident that Black & White could have defeated the First Boss if not for this incident.
"Really?" No One chuckled and asked.
"Absolutely! Everything was aligning perfectly! The secret of the 30% mechanism has already been unraveled!"
No One laughed aloud. Mujou was the guild leader and also the founder of Black & White.
To say he didn't enjoy the honor would be wrong.
But he was also as much of a mech enthusiast as No One.
If he claimed that he could reduce the boss's health to zero, then it must be true.
"I need a favor from you now."
"Don't worry, this time you lead your team to handle the situation in Qiu Yu City, the sooner it's resolved, the sooner I can get back to fighting the boss."
Everyone's attention was now focused on Qiu Yu City, so players were not interested in continuing the dungeon run.Especially now, if they lose to the Boss, they will be revived back at Qiu Yu City.
The danger of being attacked by those monsters is immense after being revived.
...
The players who managed to hide inside the buildings couldn't believe their eyes.
The NPCs of the Holy Nation knelt and prayed.
"Oh Apocalypse God, take us through the White Night, let us to be alive again, take us away from this world of suffering so we can enjoy eternal glory..."
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
The simultaneous prayers of countless NPCs in Qiu Yu City added to the eerie atmosphere.
The Artificial Apocalypse God was now half-formed.
However, the number of remaining Artificial Angels was very low.
It was estimated that they would soon run out, not enough for the lower half.
Schurke frowned at the creation formed from countless angels.
"Hideously ugly, how can you people worship this?"
"Don't let Nightingale hear that," Lucas sighed.
Schurke wasn't known for respecting others' beliefs.
The Artificial Apocalypse God is a creature created from Nightingale's unique ability.
It forms a unique being based on the recorded appearance of the Apocalypse God.
Its appearance truly doesn't resemble humans.
Sometimes, Lucas even thought the Apocalypse God might belong to the Yaoguais.
However, these thoughts are best kept to oneself.
Daring to speak them aloud would be considered heretical and blasphemous.It's not easy living with the Holy Nation hunting you down.
The Artificial Apocalypse God possesses terrifying power.
It alone can be compared to the Demon King's level.
"You all have more fighting power now." Schurke said while munching popcorn and watching.
Schurke, assessing the situation, thought the three couldn't win, not taking this creature into account.
"Defeating it is uncertain, but we can hold it off."
At that moment, Nightingale raised her hand high, and a golden stone radiating light appeared, hovering in her palm.
"Oh Apocalypse God, grant power to my meager self, to destroy those who block your path to rightful glory."
A halo enveloped the Artificial Apocalypse God.
That light shone down on Qiu Yu City.
【Creature Named - Apocalips Clonis】
Then, from the hand of the Artificial God Clonis, a bolt of lightning was created.
The electric surge wildly shot in all directions.
The lightning then struck down on the plaza.
【Fulgur】
In an instant, the lightning covered the entire plaza.
The area with the blue flames at the time rejected the lightning, emitting continuous crackling sounds.
The lightning struck directly at the Knight of the Far Lands holding the spear of light.
It formed an electric column connecting the sky and earth.
"What...!!??"
Nightingale couldn't believe her eyes.
That Knight of the Far Lands endured the full force of the Fulgur attack without budging an inch.
The electric surge spread throughout the plaza, instantly incinerating every feeble creature there into ashes, the falling cinders also being reduced to nothing by the furious electricity.
"Heh. Fake stuff.""Not feeling any pressure at all."
The Knight holding the spear dusted off his shoulder armor.
"Get serious, Alex. Let's finish this quickly," another Knight standing behind him glanced over.
"Alright, alright ~"
At that moment, the Knight of the Far Lands emitted electricity from his hand.
The purple electricity immediately devoured the current created by Clonis.
The entire plaza was continuously drawn towards his hand.
Turning the light spear into a shade of purple.
Alex...?
Lucas was somewhat taken aback.
"Alexander Guinness?"
There were many rumors among the locals about the Knights of the Far Lands.
They only appeared when the Foreigner's Association deemed an event to have spiraled out of control.
These Knights possessed powers far surpassing faction leaders.
They were the "mediators" of conflicts that could lead to war.
As well as those who restored order to chaos.
One rumor about them concerned their true identities.
They were Heroes of the past.
The Heroes who had defeated their own Demon Kings.
Becoming Living Saints.
The name that just popped into Lucas's mind was one of them.
Alexander Guinness had many titles.
The First Vanguard.Mauve Lightning.
The Ender of the Minor Demon Era.
In historical records, Alexander Guinness was the first to be called with the class Vanguard.
He was the leader who unified humanity against the demons of the Minor Demon Era.
The Minor Era, also known as the Second Era of Demons.
It occurred a very long time after the true Era of Demons was ended by Atrum.
During that time, the Demonic Path was established and saw three generations of Demon Gods.
Humanity wasn't as devastated as during the Era of Demons, becoming livestock.
However, they had lost all fortresses, living scattered in forests and treacherous mountainous areas.
Alexander Guinness was the 12th Hero born in that era.
The 11 Heroes before him had become food for the Demon King, who aspired to the realm of the Demon God.
What they couldn't foresee was that this 12th Hero would put an end to everything.
With a spear carrying brilliant lightnings in mauve, Alexander Guinness attacked each demon fortress.
He defeated each Demon King one by one, growing stronger by the day.
When he faced off against the Demon God of that time, he was likened to the Immortal Blade of that era.
Single-handedly, he destroyed all the Demon Kings and Demon Gods, creating a legend.
When a Demon King defeated a Hero, they became stronger.
Similarly, the Hero would also grow stronger.
The difference was that when there were no more adversaries of the Demon King level and above, the Hero would no longer possess the strength they once had.This is known as the "Safety Lock" of the Divinities.
It prevents a Hero from becoming corrupted and abusing their power after defeating a Demon King.
Alexander Guinness became so renowned that his name was given to his hometown.
Alex Town - Old Hampshire Town.
And despite losing the power to kill Demon Gods back then, he was still crowned as the Emperor of the King's Mark due to the people's trust and reverence.
Giovanni sweats.
He too recognized the opponent they were facing, just like Lucas.
The Hero who ended the Second Era of Demons.
The Demon King Hunter.
Great Emperor Alex.
The brilliant purple lightning at this moment became too dazzling to look at directly.
【Echo of the Hero Alexander Guinness】
"The Lightning That Even The Divine shall admire."
BOOM.
"Behold."
【World-Destroying Thunder】
In an instant, no one in Qiu Yu City could see anything.
The blinding purple light engulfed Qiu Yu City.
It reduced the Artificial Apocalypse God Clonis to dust.
The lightning, after striking down, spread out and obliterated countless soldiers and zombies.
The NPCs from the Holy Nation were terrified as they watched their deity being destroyed.
【Echo of the Hero】
【Remnants of the past. A fragment of the power retained by the Heroes of old.】
【The skills under Echo of the Hero are considered to be created by the Hero.】
All those blessed by Unholda Kaiser turned to ashes.
The helm on Alex's head disappeared.
Revealing his jet-black hair with a few vivid purple strands carrying electrical sparks.
"Not even worth comparing to those Demon Kings back then."
