Chapter 678: Chapter 503: City of Peace_1
Between crying out for help and fleeing, Demigod Glys chose an impossible battle to the death. It wasn’t until his divine protection had been completely shattered, his body penetrated by the black spear, and black light blades erupted within him turning him into a hedgehog, that Glys finally came back to his senses, realizing the terrible choice he had made.
But it was already too late, as the spatial distortion extending from the light blades also took effect inside his body, pinning him firmly in place with no escape possible. The dual loss of blood and life force caused his ice-blue hair to wither.
"The Frost Chill God will not... let you off!!"
Glys glared at Zheng Yichen with venomous eyes, casting a malicious curse on him. A curse from a Demigod couldn’t be easily ignored, but Zheng Yichen merely smirked slightly, his red hair, which had turned a different shade from the surge of blood, faded back to its original color.
The hair that stood on end slowly returned to normal.
"Alright, alright, I get it." A curse? That was the least of his concerns. After killing the Bull God in a world with Supreme Demons, he had gained curse adaptability through blood sucking. His equipment was even designed to counter curses.
The curse placed on him by the Demigod wouldn’t last long before he resisted it, and he could even turn it into something useful, adding a few new special bullets into his ammunition stockpile.
Zheng Yichen reached out and grabbed the now silent Demigod’s hair and gave it a shake.
A cloud of dust rose from the empty husk, making the distant fire dragon’s mouth twitch involuntarily; damn, that was brutal!
Well done.
"It seems like you took what I said earlier to heart, Divine Runes are indeed very valuable." The fire dragon, holding the rib Zheng Yichen tossed over, excitedly examined it like a dog gnawing on a bone, delighted that there was nothing left of the Demigod Zheng Yichen had killed.
It wasn’t accurate to say there were no remnants; the power of the Demigod was still leaking out, but without the support of Divine Power, they dissipated as soon as they were released. The Demigod Zheng Yichen had killed had no strength left to make final use of his powers in a mutual destruction.
Zheng Yichen tossed the pale skin to the fire dragon, wiping his hands with a look of distaste; the Demigod was still a humanoid creature, after all, and doing this was somewhat repulsive to him.
"Mm, the Divine Runes are well-preserved, but there’s hardly any Divinity left... you really have quite the appetite." The fire dragon didn’t mind, carefully inspecting Demigod Glys’s Divine Runes before speaking to Zheng Yichen.
"I don’t have quite a direct feeling about it."
"Maybe it’s because you have Divinity but no Divine Power. However, with your powers combined with your Divinity, it’s almost the same as having Divine Power." The fire dragon looked over at the frozen warriors of various races and said, "Now that Glys is dead, the ice is starting to melt, what shall we do with these people? Kill them to silence them?"
"Enough, you’re almost becoming paranoid."
Zheng Yichen glanced at the fire dragon, his extraordinary mental perception allowing him to sense Klakauska’s malevolent thoughts. It was the kind of malevolence that sought to eliminate anything that could hinder ’revenge’, an evil intent so strong it overwhelmed another forceful evil intent.
"Tch, I’m just worried these people will go around talking nonsense. Is the curse on you alright? I feel like I want to kill you..." Klakauska scrutinized Zheng Yichen as he asked.
"Shouldn’t be a problem, it’ll disappear in a while." Zheng Yichen looked at his hands and summoned Lilith, sitting straight atop it. A curse? Truly feeble. The cat spirit cloak, maintaining the state of the Spirit of Blessing, could quickly neutralize curses.
The energy absorber on the motorbike, coupled with the inherent curse resistance blessing, could directly draw away external curse forces, simultaneously linking to the weapon case’s weapon enhancement function, to create new Curse bullets... two of them.
After Zheng Yichen had obtained two new Curse bullets, the fire dragon, lost in thought, had figured out what curse had been cast on Zheng Yichen.
"If I’m not mistaken, the curse you’re under should be the Winter Curse."
"Hm? What’s the effect?" Zheng Yichen placed the two Curse bullets he held into the weapon case.
"It causes all creatures naturally intolerant to freezing temperatures to develop intense malice towards those cursed. The less tolerant they are, the stronger the malice becomes. Ah, by the way, fire dragons are included in this, they ignore the cold not because they’re adapted to it, but because they have strong resistance to it." After explaining, Klakauska looked at Zheng Yichen oddly, "Your speed at breaking curses is quite fast, huh."
Zheng Yichen smiled, "It’s just that this Demigod wasn’t strong enough."
He walked towards the area encased in ice, tapped with his fishing rod, and the ice, which could no longer maintain its shape, completely melted. The various race’s strong warriors watched Zheng Yichen with amazement and caution.
"Alright, you are free now, you don’t need me to escort you home, do you?"
These strong warriors from different races weren’t a match for the Demigod, but within normal circumstances, they were powerful enough; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been chosen as ’prey’ by the Demigod.
"No, we can return on our own..." An elf spoke up, "Thank you for your assistance, if you have time, please visit Milovia."
Zheng Yichen looked towards Klakauska.
The fire dragon cleared its throat and said, "That over there is the Elf Capital."
"I’ll take a look when I have time," Zheng Yichen nodded, Elves, I heard they are all very good-looking. It’s just that the one in front of me is male, and in terms of physique, he isn’t as robust as the two warriors beside him, but the muscle definition on his body is even more pronounced, indicative of a very low body fat percentage, and he stands at one meter ninety.
This is also an elf warrior, wielding a weapon that falls between a great sword and a regular longsword in size.
The others also extended invitations to Zheng Yichen, no one asked why he was there, why he got into a conflict with a demigod, and nobody even brought up the fact that the demigod was dead...
Demigod business is something these regular beings generally steer clear of.
They considered themselves lucky just to have survived; not dying and having fought a demigod, it was a benefit in itself to go back and thoroughly review the experience.
Of course, before they could absorb the battle experience, they had to find a place to lay low first. Demigod Glys was dead, but his followers were not, and although there might not be trouble in the short term, over time, some of those followers would surely come out in a frenzy.
"Tsk, I thought they would leave behind something," Klakauska spat as he watched the powerful beings quickly depart.
"Forget it, what can they possibly have to offer right now?" Zheng Yichen waved his hand dismissively and said, "I’m in good shape right now, bring on the next one!"
Klakauska erupted with laughter: "Hahaha! Next one, next one!"
Seeing how brave Zheng Yichen was, of course, Klakauska wouldn’t be polite with him; saying there was no need to rest, in fact, the time spent traveling could be considered rest. Besides, demigods weren’t just lining up to be dealt with. It was with the support of the Dragon Tribe’s intelligence network that he could maintain this rhythm of either fighting or traveling to the next fight with Zheng Yichen.
When connecting with the Dragon Tribe using secret techniques, the dragon responsible for the communication was rather speechless: "Where did you find this ’wild man of the woods’? Two demigods dead in less than two days!"
"Why do you care so much? Give me the new location now, and make sure it’s the kind where we can go straight into battle without any trouble," Klakauska, maintaining the communication, was very assertive: "Don’t delay."
The dragon in communication with Klakauska hesitated for a moment before asking, "Got it. By the way, you’re not planning to have him avenge you in the end, are you?"
"...Mind your own business."
"Ah... okay, I was just curious how you managed to persuade such a being. The Dragon Tribe will also have to prepare a substantial gift for him later."
Klakauska said with a laugh, "Of course, he’s willing to be the blade now, but this doesn’t come without a price—"
Landen.
The mages on the city walls looked doubtfully at the approaching caravan and rechecked the special detection device at the city gate. As a special city, Landen has unique detection devices at its entrances, which can identify any race entering.
It’s mainly because this device also has the protection of a True God, setting a very high threshold, making it difficult for even demigods to hide their identities.
This is also what surprised the mage guards of the city, for since yesterday, demigods had been arriving in Landen little by little, and the caravan approaching from afar was also likely to be a demigod and their followers.
"What in the world has happened to make these demigods come to Landen in groups? Are they preparing for some kind of gathering?"
"Who knows, don’t worry too much about it. Landen is the City of Peace, nothing can go wrong here," another mage said relaxingly.
There are many places known as immortal fortresses or Cities of Peace, yet many of them have vanished into history. However, some remain, with Landen being one of them, and moreover, it’s the most unshakeable.
The reason? Other immortal fortresses and Cities of Peace are self-proclaimed, but Landen is backed by a True God. The difference is stark, so no matter how many demigods come, they can’t turn the place upside down.
Even so, curiosity is innate to everyone. With so many demigods arriving in Landen in a short time, the mages stationed on the wall started to contact their networks of friends to clarify what was happening. And indeed, they found some issues.
"Lately there’s been a ’Godslayer’ who’s been hunting demigods?" one mage said uncertainly, having inquired through the magical network from a well-informed friend. His friend wasn’t very certain either, but this inconclusive message still left him utterly astonished: "Who is so bold?"
A demigod, after all, is not just any mage or even many other Divinity creatures. Divinity creatures are one thing, some powerful mercenary teams could also attempt to take them on, but demigods are a different story entirely.
The message wasn’t completely confirmed, but seeing so many demigods coming to Landen, the mages on the city walls felt that the news was likely true...
