Mystical Journey

Yuria raised his hand to stop the group. Looking at the icicle from afar, he realized that it was only an illusion as the icicle swiftly disappeared.

A very light, white mist gradually began to hover over the entire island, but he felt as if there was something wrong with the fog.

“How come I can’t see anything?” A soldier suddenly said.

“Me too.”

“Captain! Aix!” Someone called out.

Yuria turned back and was about to look at what was going on when he found that the voices behind him suddenly disappeared. It was all empty in the white mist. There was nothing. No unit, no soldiers. It was as if the previous voices were also just an illusion.

“We have convened.” A familiar voice came from in front of him.

“Parakeet!?” Yuria once again saw the Parakeet. She was wearing a white dress and slowly emerged from the white mist.

“This is the Hallucination White Mist. It can confuse the five senses people have and randomly create illusions,” Parakeet said indifferently. “Come on. They have already started to fight. Follow me.”

Yuria watched her turn around and walked towards the depths of the white mist. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately followed closely. Under these circumstances, the soldiers around him had already completely disappeared. They had either gone far away or gotten lost. In the case that the radio could not be used, it would not be a bad thing to follow Parakeet, who had no malicious intent towards him.

He gave a final attempt to wave his hand around and called the names of his teammates, but there was no response. He could only follow Parakeet who was in front of him.

The underground White Crab central stone pillar

In front of a huge silvery-white metal funnel, a petite girl sat quietly on a big white bed. She was staring into the distance and there were no pupils in her eyes as if she was looking at something but at the same time, being in a trans.

“Hahaha!! It seems like I’m the first one here!” King Thunderclap wore a blue metal tight-fitting combat uniform and held a black metal rod in his hand. The top of the rod flashed a blue electric light from time to time.

He walked out of a cave mouth with two assistant adjutants. His sight was locked on the naked petite girl sitting on the big bed. Although there was a white blanket obscuring, one was still able to see that the other party in the wanted posters was Yurijie, who was also Zhi Jinqin.

Rated as the most dangerous among the Four Great Cornerstones, she had the absolute Immortal Body. This had been heard of in the sharing of intelligence, which was also one of the reasons why King Thunderclap was so aggressive. Even though he was not infected, he still quickly rushed over as soon as possible.

Immortal Body! What a wonderful term. The moment he heard it, he decided to make acquiring the Immortal Body his biggest goal of this lifetime!

“Illusionist!” King Thunderclap pressed a button on the right side of his thigh.

Snap! Hiss…

Suddenly, his back opened up and pieces of black metal modules which looked like black bricks started coming out. More and more black cubes surged out from King Thunderclap’s back. These cubes had a metallic luster on their surface, and as they came in contact with the air, they expanded rapidly.

In less than a few seconds, his body was covered with a thick layer of black cubes, which had assembled into a black robot three times larger than his original body. There were densely packed honeycomb-like cannon ports on his chest and shoulders. The vilest thing was that the critical part between King Thunderclap’s legs was actually inlaid with a blue gem. The gemstone was slightly fluorescent, and it seemed to be able to launch a powerful laser beam at any time.

“Hehe! Looks like I get to be the first to seize the opportunity!” King Thunderclap was now more than four meters tall. He took a step out and the ground shook a little. His black metal block-armor swayed like a wave. Rubbing against one another, vast amounts of large blue arcs appeared across the entire body’s surface.

“Go to hell!!” He stomped the ground, and the rocket thrusters which were mounted on his back ejected right away. In the fiery yellow flame, King Thunderclap swung his fist with the blue electric light and slammed it at the little girl on the big bed.

“Every one of these modules can withstand heavy bombardment for at least ten minutes. With so many modules combined, I am now undefeatable!!!” King Thunderclap laughed hysterically, and his fist struck the side of the little girl’s head.

Pooh!

A splatter of blood plasma splashed directly onto the facial part outside his armor.

King Thunderclap’s complexion changed.

The person he struck was not the little girl Zhi Jinqin at all, but instead, it was one of the adjutants behind him!

“Sir…” The adjutant’s eyes widened, his face was full of disbelief and his chest was punched through in the middle. He fell to the ground with a thump.

Not only him, but the other adjutants had also fallen to the ground at this moment. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive. There were obvious traces of electric burns on his body.

“This… This is hallucinogenic!” King Thunderclap’s face darkened. Only then did he realize that he had attacked in the wrong direction. He looked back and saw that Zhi Jinqin who was still behind him and still maintained the original dull and absent-minded look.

“You… This fellow!!!” An incomparable anger surged out from the bottom of his heart. One of the two adjutants was actually his nephew!

“Tsk tsk tsk… King Thunderclap, bungled and killed his own nephew. What rare news.” A handsome pale man came out from the other side. Behind him was a shorty in a black robe whose face could not be seen clearly.

Unlike King Thunderclap and others who arrived here smoothly, these two men were covered in blood. It was apparent that they had gone through many battles before reaching this place.

“Red Nation’s Prince?” King Thunderclap turned his head coldly. “Say another word, and I will kill you!”

“Oh, I’m so scared~~~” Prince mocked and put on an act. “The honorable King Thunderclap, you actually didn’t figure out what an Illusionist’s basic ability is before bringing along two subordinates who didn’t have any resistance. I really don’t know if you are recklessly confident or arrogant.”

Boom!!!

King Thunderclap’s right arm punched into the air, and the hugely distorted airwave hit out a clear sunken fist print on the wall beside Prince’s head.

Large amounts of broken earth and gravel fell, and the entire cave trembled violently as if it was about to collapse.

“How oafish.” The black robed person behind Prince sneered. “Does King Thunderclap think that Illusionist, the most powerful of the Four Great Cornerstones, could be dealt with so easily? Moreover, having the strength to swing your fist at the allies.”

“The most important thing now is to get rid of Illusionist first.” Vulture No. 1 and others walked out of another cave mouth. He held a dark green gem-like device in his hand, and it was constantly emitting a circle of light green glow, protecting more than a dozen people behind him.

Vulture No. 1 was wearing a large trench coat and a military cap. His face was cold and solemn. His strength was actually not comparable to that of Red Nation’s Prince and King Thunderclap. Slann was initially the weakest in the highest individual martial power. After Garen came along, it became the strongest player on par with Black Federation. But now with the Sword Master’s betrayal and departure, Slann had lost its highest martial power and was once again restored to its original weak position.

“Slann’s scumbag.” King Thunderclap’s mouth attracted hatred the moment it was opened.

There was a glint of anger in Vulture No. 1’s eyes, but he still suppressed it to ensure there would not be a dispute between them. However, the rest of the people behind him could not hold it in and opened their mouths to mock and ridicule.

King Thunderclap could not be bothered to reply. He raised his fist and punched to the side, instantly stopping the voices.

With a boom, there was a half-a-meter deep fist print on the ground beside Vulture No. 1 and the group.

More and more people started arriving but the numbers seemed to be much lesser than when they first set out.

Gradually, everyone formed a circle around Zhi Jinqin and the big bed at the center. The danger of bombs and various kinds of traps had been ruled out.

The funnel-shaped silvery-white metal attracted more attention straight away.

Suddenly, the metal surface slowly extended soft silvery-white tentacles at the empty space above the big bed. The tentacles were as if they were not made of metal. They were liquifying and condensing into human lips.

“Welcome to my paradise…” A weird, overlapping voice rang out slowly. It was as though an old man and a youthful girl were talking at the same time.

“Hand over the data, Illusionist. You have no chance,” Vulture No. 1 spoke confidently on the surface, but there was a hint of vigilance in the depths of his eyes, ready to retreat and escape any moment.

“Let’s play a game first…” The voice did not take note of him. This made Vulture No. 1 a little embarrassed. However, at this time, no one noticed his embarrassment.

Everyone’s attention was on Zhi Jinqin, who was on the big bed.

This was the first time anyone saw her move after coming into the cave.

Zhi Jinqin gently lifted her left hand and opened her small white palm.

She opened her mouth and began to say something softly, but there was no sound coming out.

At that moment, the crowd made a depressing swallowing sound.

One could only see Zhi Jinqin’s entire left palm melt like a candle, turning into drops of wax and dripping onto the floor next to the bed. What was uncanny was that each drop of wax gradually expanded and became larger.

“Kill her now!!” Someone shouted. “She must be brewing something! Open fire!”

Bang bang bang bang!!

Some people actually brought heavy autocannons in. Booming sounds were heard as the huge autocannons fired directly at Zhi Jinqin.

But there was no point as the numerous bullets were blocked by a layer of air in front of Zhi Jinqin, and they all fell to the ground.

Whoosh!

A circle of red flame blazed up on the floor around her bed. The flame was half a meter high, and self-ignited without any material.

“The unclean world… The sinful world…” That weird voice sounded again.

Zhin Jinqin was expressionless in the flame but was eerily giving people a kind of feeling that she was happy.

“Attack!!” King Thunderclap roared. Feeling something was not right, he bumped both his fists together and hammered them down fiercely.

Krak!!

Numerous violet-blue currents flowed from the ground to Zhi Jinqin, directly fanning out to cover the entire silvery-white metal funnel.

Red Nation’s Prince carried a scarlet ruined sword, reduced a few steps to a leap, turned over, and struck out his sword!

Clang!

“Annihilation Ring!” The sword in Prince’s hand turned into a red ring, and the surrounding area of the high-speed rotation had a faint black line. No one knew what formed it.

Vulture No. 1 took out a pistol with a large barrel. The muzzle was illuminated with a faint white light, and he solemnly aimed it at Zhi Jinqin.

At this moment, the wax liquid dripping beside Zhi Jinqin quickly grew big and tall to form a slightly black triangle-headed humanoid monster. The monster held a double saber and its body was densely covered with hard metal scales.

Every drop of wax had turned into a monster, and instantly, at least tens of hundreds of monsters darted towards everyone around.
