NOVPUBThe students who had just left the area not far from Memorial Square turned around due to this sudden change, looking towards the giant open-air screen.
Their puzzled eyes immediately became serious.
The entire square became noisy in an instant, only the images on the screen were changing continuously.
No one expected there to be a final twist at the finale of the Shadow World!
Although Duchess Huberian had temporarily hidden.
The students watching the fight are all horrified by the bloody scene that appeared in the botanical garden in the blink of an eye.
Those who attacked other challengers in the shadow world were invariably heartless red-named criminals.
The cruel and vicious lawbreakers often infiltrated lower-order shadow worlds through temporary mini void gates that appeared in the wild, disregarding the disaster that failure within such worlds might bring, executing a path of slaughter.
They are particularly good at disguising their identities, playing mind tricks, and even engaging in life-and-death battles with challengers, and since they are often hunting and robbing, their own strength and magic cards are not lacking!
Generally speaking, encountering these red-name criminals is a low probability event, purely bad luck.
But the one Duchess Huberian encountered probably came prepared—
It’s likely that someone was secretly targeting this Miss Duchess, and once Duchess Huberian was found to be heading to the building that sealed the Void Door, they would alert others, even the many assassins abroad, to start matching Shadow Worlds. As long as the number is large enough, there’s a high probability that they will bump into Duchess Huberian!
"Wait a minute, this nauseating mercury..."
In front of the giant open-air screen, a senior student from the Alchemy College, gripping his chin, looked at the globule of mercury controlled by the woman on the screen with a furrowed brow.
Soon, new information from the South Continent Shadow World Management Association also appeared on the screen—
[Information match successful, summon recognized as Immortal Mercury, holder is S-class wanted criminal Lilette, follower of the Rebirth Church-Corrupt Bishop.]
[Immortal Mercury]
[Category: Summon Card]
[Grade: Pink Divine]
[Level: 5]
[Effect: Immune to 50% physical attack, causing devouring living effect when touching attack and being touched attack, and increasing own attribute and size, lasting for 10 minutes.]
[Remark: Merge with me, and your body will never decay.]
"A damned follower of the Rebirth Church?"
Suddenly many senior students cried out in shock and anger.
"Rebirth Church?"
Some freshmen on the square seemed a bit confused about this term.
Those who haven’t yet received their Challenger’s License haven’t really touched upon the true Shadow World and its darkest side.
"They’re a heretical organization lurking above the North and South Continent, like a cluster of toxic insects that can’t be cut off at the roots. Their active records date back even before the recording of history."
"Even if the world perishes and history breaks, they will never perish!"
"Their presence can be found in the Shadow Worlds of every era…"
Talking about the Rebirth Church, many senior students clenched their teeth and trembled with tones mixed with hatred and fear.
A large part of the death rate in the current Shadow World is related to Rebirth Believers.
Some psychologically twisted believers even enjoy watching challengers with exhausted strength dying in despair under their humiliation, exhibiting all this to the public.
Even the senior students from Ichrite Academy who haven’t encountered Rebirth Believers personally, have heard of or knew someone who had been harmed by the Church, losing their young lives because of these cultists.
"The danger of these cultists is not only in the Shadow World. The radiation of the Rebirth Church in the real world is even greater."
Although the senior students were reluctant to admit their fear of these cultists, they couldn’t mislead the freshmen about the danger of the Rebirth Church.
Apart from these inhumane Rebirth Church cultists.
What could cause today’s powers to tremble, are those ten Cardinals of the Rebirth Church who are like walking natural disasters, possessing power that could bring about the downfall of a kingdom.
They seemed to be the embodiments of the ultimate evil of mankind.
Even the Hutton Kingdom would not want to provoke any cardinal of the Rebirth Church to come to their territory.
"Miss Duchess Huberian...why would she provoke these cultists..."
For many freshmen, this was the first time they had seen the image of Rebirth Believers with their own eyes.
Even through the magic fluorescent screen, they could feel that the ill-intent accompanied by death seemed to have come closer to them.
"The disappearance of Duke Alansar, I’m afraid, is inevitably linked to the Rebirth Church."
At this moment, many senior students who knew the gossip of the Royal Capital’s aristocratic circle finally understood something — the great nobles of the original Alansar faction were not unwilling to investigate the Duke’s whereabouts, but they dared not do so!
Duchess Hyperion must have known something she shouldn’t have, and so was targeted for elimination.
For a moment, Jera Memorial Square, unusually, fell silent.
The students all held their breaths and keenly focused on Hyperion’s condition.
Even though many students were very repulsed by Hyperion, a half-demon.
But none of the students watching now were bad enough to wish for Hyperion to die horribly at the hands of such a cultist!
...
Several minutes passed.
Demon World Experimental Botanical Garden.
Hyperion, who had been forced out of invisibility, coughed up blood in mid-air, struggled to control her body to regain balance, and then barely landed on the ground.
The figure that was battling Hyperion sneered and rushed at her once again.
Hyperion’s eyelids were half-closed, and the edges of her mouth were stained with blood.
Her body was shaking violently, apparently, the burden on her body was reaching its limit.
Even if she could see the enemy’s move clearly, she was too weak to dodge, and could only use her dagger to block barely.
As a result, she was kicked heavily again. n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
After rolling several times on the grass, she finally stopped.
"Panting... Panting..."
Hyperion lay on the grass, struggling to lift her body, feeling her head becoming unbearably heavy due to her injuries and the poisonous fog.
Even with the short-term boost from the Demon King’s Restaurant’s food, she had a hard time confronting the fifth-order cultist Lilette.
If it hadn’t been for the fact that the other party didn’t want to give her a chance to escape from the classroom by invisibility, the fearsome silver alien used to block the door would have absorbed her already.
And behind this fifth-order cultist is a second-order warlock who keeps trying to cast control and debuff magic.
This botanical garden had become like a cage with nowhere to escape.
Hyperion knew that if she was robbed of her last lifesaving card, she would not be far from death.
It must be because she had done too many bad things with Lanci and had deducted too much merit, which led to this disaster.
However, now, there’s only one thing she could do.
Hyperion took a deep breath.
"Lanci, save me!"
Hyperion finally called out in desperation.
If he didn’t come over now, she really couldn’t hold on anymore.
"Your companion?"
The cultist, Lilette, laughed coldly. In her view, Hyperion’s cry for help was as ridiculous as a baby’s panicked cry.
A second-order novice from Ichrite Academy, even if he came, he would only accompany this Miss Duchess to the underworld.
However.
Two seconds later.
With a loud bang, the original botanical garden door, blocked by the silver alien, was shattered.
"!"
Cultist Lilette frowned, she turned back cautiously, looking towards the direction of the cascading walls on the classroom side.
Immediately after, her cold pupils suddenly contracted.
Because she had seen a-
Demon who, by all rights, shouldn’t have appeared in such a place.
Headmaster of Purgatory Corridor Academy!
